Struggle in Russia

Chapter 272 One Thought (Part 2)

Kuza and Constantinescu have already negotiated and are ready to act, while another malicious Shuvanov on the other side is also eyeing Jan Constantine and Barbu Katarjiu. The reason is simple. These two are important figures in the Wallachian National Party, and it is the most difficult to assassinate them.

Of course, what Shuvanov valued was that the latter one was the most difficult. If the difficulty was low, Alexie could do it. Who would he cry to?

"Gentlemen, after careful study, I think now is the best time to get rid of Jan Constantine and Barbu Katarjou."

"You've already seen that these two people are like fire and water, as long as you move them a little bit, they will merge! And what we need to do is to help them ignite the fire!"

It's just that Shuvanov's proposal did not receive a positive response. Petukhov just asked lazily: "So, Colonel, how are you going to light this fire?"

And Alexey said: "Isn't it enough to light the fire? What if these two people don't fight each other?"

Shuvanov explained patiently: "Ignition is easy. It seems that the previous bombing of the Bucharest prosecutor's office was done by Jan Constantine. Obviously, this definitely made Barbu Katar feel dissatisfied for a long time. He must want revenge! "

"So what we have to do is very simple, that is, to take revenge for Barbu Katarjiu before him, and also carry out an assassination campaign against Jan Constantine. In this way, the latter will definitely think that it was done by Barbu , will definitely fight back!"

Speaking of this, Shuvanov was a little smug, and he asserted confidently: "At that time, it was not difficult for them to think about it or not!"

Shuvanov felt that his idea was really good, with a small investment and great results, and it was very suitable for their current strength. But he didn't expect this idea to be flatly rejected!

Petukhov said: "It's taken for granted, isn't it? Jan Konstantin is not a fool, how could he not thoroughly investigate the assassination against him, and don't expose us instead of being successful!"

Without waiting for Shuvanov to explain, he said again: "Also, according to your point of view, the assassination of Jan Constantine is probably just a formality, and does not require much investment. In this case, with your strength, you can do it alone. Take action! Why involve us?"

Shuvanov immediately wanted to strangle Petukhov to death. If it was really just a feint, there was no need to involve him and Alexei, but his fundamental purpose was to frame Alexei, Alexei If he doesn't enter the game, what's the use of his messing around?

According to Shuvanov's vision, he will deliberately leave a loophole in this assassination, and this loophole will point directly at Alexei,

When the time comes, Jan Konstantin, who has become angry from embarrassment, won't bite Alexei relentlessly?

In this way, Alexei's actions in Wallachia will inevitably fail in an all-round way, and there is naturally no way to explain such a fiasco to Nicholas I. At that time, no matter whether Alexei escaped from Wallachia in desperation, or stayed in Wallachia to give it a go, he had something to do, and he would definitely push Alexei into the abyss of eternal doom!

It can be said that this trick is really poisonous, and if Alexei is fooled, he will surely be doomed. But the problem is, Petukhov gave Shuvanov back in a few words! What he meant was very clear. If, as you Shuvanov said, the plan is so good, and the investment is small and the effect is high, then you can do it yourself, and there is no need to find us. On the contrary, what are you trying to do by dragging us by force?

Of course, Shuvanov could not answer: "We hit it off and advance and retreat together. We are blessed to share and make meritorious deeds together!"

No one would believe this kind of nonsense, and he couldn't even say that I was tricked, just to kill you, so who would be fooled?

So he could only explain with a smile on his face: "Although my plan does not require too many manpower, in order to be safe, it is best to kill a chicken with a sledgehammer. Lions fight rabbits with all their strength! We have a chance of success together." Also higher!"

It's just that Petukhov won't be fooled. He replied flatly: "Well, I can consider the task of observing and covering the outside. Next, your elite soldiers will be responsible for the assassination operation!"

When Shuvanov heard it, his heart was full of criticisms. What you mean by affection is that you are in charge of watching the wind, and all the dirty work is left to me. If I succeed, you will be rewarded for your meritorious service. If I fail, you will be the first. You are running away, right?

Shuvanov naturally couldn't agree to such an arrangement. He still hoped that Alexey or Petukhov would be among the people who did it, so that he could leave a hole in the end and get rid of the blame. Otherwise, in the end the matter would be revealed, and all the responsibility would be his, so what's the point if the board couldn't hit Alexei's ass at all.

So he immediately objected: "Although my staff is all good, but the manpower is really a little thin, you all have to support my side more or less, otherwise we can't do it!"

Petukhov asked directly: "Then who will the manpower I support you follow?"

Shuvanov just wanted to say that he would naturally listen to my full authority, but he immediately realized that it was impossible. If he had full authority to command the assassination, he would be directly responsible, and he must be the one to take the blame for the failure in the end! How can this work!

But if he objected, it would be too deliberate. If the actions were as simple as he said, who would push away such a good chance of meritorious service?

For a while, Shuvanov was caught in a dilemma again. It seemed that he could not agree or disagree!

In the end, he could only gritted his teeth and replied: "It's a very important matter, so naturally I can't just listen to me alone. Let's discuss the final action. How about a plan?"

Shuvanov felt that I had already said this, and you should have nothing to say, but he really underestimated Petukhov's ability to interfere.

Because immediately Petukhov stabbed in a calm manner: "We should discuss it? How can we discuss it? At that time, I think the situation is wrong and I agree to do it, so I won't do it?"

Shuvanov was stunned. He never thought that Petukhov would ask such a painful question. According to him, as long as the action starts, it can't stop, and he won't listen to it.

But Petukhov actually said all the ugly things before, what should he do?

After thinking about it, Shuvanov decided to kick the ball to Alexei. He felt that Alexei should support his plan. Not in a position to disagree.

So he replied quite naturally: "Of course the power to make impromptu decisions belongs to the Earl, and we will all obey the command of the Earl when the time comes!"
