Struggle in Russia

For Robert Kojon, the Prime Minister's condemnation was a huge blow, because he had always thought that he would be very popular in the country by inciting Wallachia to drive out the Russians, and he would make Russia ashamed without a single soldier and effort. A heavy blow to Russia's expansion in the Balkans, no matter how you look at it, it is a great victory.

But who would have thought that the prime minister would be so terrified that he would think that he had broken a major event, and he would be held accountable. This really discouraged him.

It can only be said that Ke Hong took it for granted. Although the anti-Russian sentiment in the British civil and political circles has become stronger and stronger over the years, and you can often hear all kinds of sarcasm and ridicule against Russia, talking about it is the same thing. , really doing it is another matter.

After all, Russia still looks very powerful. Neither the queen nor the prime minister really wants to start a war with Russia. Especially since 1848, all European countries are experiencing a new round of revolutionary movements, and the political situation in all countries is in a mess. I don't even bother to provoke the Russians, do I?

But it happened at this time that Ke Hong acted on his own, and suddenly pushed Britain to the front line of anti-Russia, facing the wrath of the polar bear, which was terrible. If there is a fight, how can the weak British Army stop the sea of ​​polar bears on land?

Even if there is a powerful Royal Navy guarding the sea, polar bears can't swim from the sea, but it's too bad for polar bears to find excuses to expand their influence on land, especially now that France can't afford to fight Russia because of the revolution. Who in the European continent? Can it stop Russia?

In Lord Russell's view, Cohorn was playing with fire and dying, so how could he support him to continue messing around.

Of course, Cochon is not completely without supporters in the UK. For example, his boss, the Foreign Secretary, Viscount Palmerston, supports Cochon. If he hadn't helped Ke Hong speak in the cabinet, what Ke Hong received this time would not have been reprimanded by Lord Russell but a direct dismissal document.

As the staunchest anti-Russian faction, Viscount Palmerston has always supported taking a tough stance and tough measures against Russia, and even clamored to repair Russia to teach Russia an unforgettable lesson. It can be said that the reason why Ke Hong made such a bold attempt was instigated by Viscount Palmerston.

Of course, after this incident happened, Palmerston was not less complained by Lord Russell, which also let him know the prime minister's true attitude towards Russia. While carefully wiping Cohon's ass, he was also quite disappointed. I am afraid that it will be impossible to really teach Russia a lesson under Lord Russell's tenure as prime minister.

However, this does not mean that Palmerston is ready to die down or simply give up. For a hardcore Russia hater like him, he will never give up if he does not make Russia a grandson. He was going to take more covert measures to achieve his goal, so in his private letter to Cohon he ordered:

"Under the current situation,

It is inappropriate for you to publicly support the anti-Russian movement in Wallachia as a diplomat, and you should continue to support our friends who are fighting Russia in a prudent and prudent manner, and provide them with help and support within your ability..."

"It is best to make good use of the Poles. They are in the same situation as Russia. They will resolutely attack the Russians without our excessive mobilization...Mobilize more Poles to Wallachia. It is best to mobilize rich Going to Wallachia for the Poles against Russian experience would be the best way at the moment!"

"Also, covertly put diplomatic pressure on the Turkish government to adopt a policy of neutrality, at least not toward Russia..."

I have to say that Cochon is really Palmerston's most obedient little friend, and he took action as soon as he received the instructions from the Foreign Secretary. The immediate cause of the hammer gang. Because only local snakes like the Hammer Gang can send the Polish anti-Russian elements, weapons and ammunition that Palmerston wants into Wallachia.

It's just that what Kehong didn't expect was that Li Xiao stabbed James Warnes to death directly, which made Kehong's arrangement completely in vain, and he couldn't wait for Kehong to wait and see in Bucharest When the Polish reinforcements came, it was discovered that James Warnes had disappeared for a long time.

He anxiously asked his subordinates: "Is there no news about James yet? What does the Consulate in Constanta say?"

"There is no news yet. Constanta said that James has not returned to the company for a long time, and there is no one in the residence. His last report said that he is about to complete the task and will completely control the Hammer Gang, and then he will be with that Romanian gangster. They disappeared mysteriously together!"

Ke Hong asked grimly: "That Romanian gangster also disappeared? At the same time?"

"That's the answer from Constanta!"

This answer immediately made Ke Hong furious. The situation was already very obvious. James Warnes must have encountered an accident with that Romanian gangster, and it might have been solved by someone. But Constanta was so slow and unresponsive, didn't they realize that something was wrong!

"Constanza said that you are responsible for all the actions of James Vaughan, and they are just providing cooperation, so..."

So you don’t need to listen to what Kojon said later, and you know how Constanta’s side will shirk with your ass. It just means that it has nothing to do with them. This is the matter of the Consulate General in Bucharest.

The reason for this is nothing more than a bureaucratic problem. Regardless of the country's bureaucrats, they will grab credit if they have merit, and push away when they are in trouble. The incident in Wallachia was criticized by the Prime Minister by name, and it seemed to the Consulate General in Constanta that it was a huge trouble.

In particular, James Vaughan had an accident and there was no news.

Ke Hong sighed, he was angry and hated those bureaucrats who were not strong enough, but he had no choice but to go to Constanta himself to see what was going on, and hoped there was still a glimmer of hope Bar!

To be honest, he really didn't want to leave Bucharest at this time, because although the Wallachians drove away the Russians, they didn't really have a bottom line in their hearts, and they had to be encouraged by his foreign friend from time to time. There is a possibility of shrinking eggs.

When he left like this, some Wallachians must start to murmur, thinking that this foreign friend of his is going to run away, so before he leaves, he must cheer the Wallachians:

"Help me contact the interim government cabinet and real power figures in Bucharest immediately, I want to talk to them!"
