Lord Seymour's flat but firm speech made Nicholas I's face stiff, and then he smiled dryly: "Really?"

"Your Majesty, the peace and stability of the Near East depends on every responsible and responsible European country, so we must join hands to maintain peace and stability in the European region!" Lord Seymour said to Nico with sincerity. La I said, at this time he didn't seem to notice the slightly embarrassed face of Nicholas I.

Although Lord Seymour's attitude was so sincere, Nicholas I's heart seemed to believe that Lord Seymour had stood with the French Empire.

"Okay! I know your attitude! If the Kingdom of Great Britain is unwilling to support me, then we will do it ourselves!" Nicholas I said to Lord Seymour angrily, like a child who had not yet grown up.

"Your Majesty, we are not unwilling to support you! We just hope that the various forces in the Near East will maintain a balance and jointly maintain the peaceful and stable development of Europe!" Lord Seymour responded cautiously, and then added: "The Kingdom of Great Britain is not willing, Nor does it want to target any country. If any country wants to disrupt the peace in the Near East, Britain will defend it at all costs."

Under the tough attitude of Lord Seymour, Nicholas I completely dispelled the idea of ​​winning over the British Kingdom to carve up the Ottoman Empire.

It was only now that Nicholas I understood that the British kingdom only wanted a high government under their control, not a fragmented Ottoman Empire.

"What if the Ottoman Empire itself destroyed the peace in the Near East?" Nicholas I asked Lord Seymour coldly.

"I believe that the Ottoman Empire will not make such an unwise move!" Lord Seymour directly responded with a double standard attitude.

"Okay! Lord Seymour, I'm tired! I won't let you rest here!" Nicholas I, who tested Lord Seymour's attitude, issued an expulsion order to Lord Seymour, and the court of the Russian Empire would never welcome him A man with ill will towards the Russian Empire.

Lord Seymour naturally also heard what Nicholas I meant. He hurriedly bowed his knees to the tsar in front of him. Nicholas I waved his hand slightly, and a guard sent Lord Seymour away from the court of the Russian Empire.

After Lord Seymour completely left the imperial village, Nicholas I slowly came to a portrait. The owner of the portrait was a middle-aged man in a Russian imperial uniform who paid for shoes and a sword. Judging from his appearance in the portrait, he has some similarities with Nicholas I.

Standing under the portrait, Nicholas I looked at the middle-aged man in the portrait with blurred eyes, and muttered to himself: "Brother, what do you think I should do? Where should the Russian Empire go!"

That's right, the person in the portrait is none other than the "Holy King" Alexander I who "saved" the whole of Europe.

It was precisely because of his decision to be strong and clear that the French Empire was defeated by General Winter because it could not find supplies after it invaded Moscow.

The French coalition troops of more than 600,000 people left the Russian Empire with less than 300,000 people after this battle. In the following wars, the Russian Empire pursued its victories from Poland to the mainland of France. Prussia and Austria were "liberated" by the Russian Empire and joined the Russian Empire in the crusade against France.

It has been 38 years since the war. The once handsome boy (Nicholas I) has now become a middle-aged and elderly handsome man. Under his leadership, the Russian Empire has gradually become stronger (Nicholas I thought that ). In just one step, Nicholas I can lead his army to capture the fortress of Constantine, let the double-headed eagle flag of Constantinople flutter in the wind, and accomplish what the tsars of all dynasties have not done for hundreds of years.

However, on the way of Nicholas I to Constantinople stands a emaciated "patient", and behind this "patient" is a "ghostly" opponent.

Decades ago, the Russian Empire, led by the Holy King, defeated the "republican undead" that destroyed the monarchy.

Decades later, the nephew of the "undead" took his legacy and established an empire, which was renamed the "Second French Empire".

The former undead appeared in the land of France as if returning a corpse from a soul. This undead should have been wiped out on this land again when he was born.

However, after more than 30 years of development, the hatred of the undead has gradually faded in those countries that are full of calculations their growing fears.

They succeeded, the undead agreed to their terms, and made their own pledge to the whole of Europe, and they began to sit back and relax, and began to fight each other.

Only he, Nicholas I, knew that this haunted Second Empire would never stop their evil plans, and they would do everything possible to destroy the whole of Europe.

The fact is exactly what Nicholas I expected, with the support of the undead, the Ottoman Empire rejected the proposal of the Russian Empire, and they began to rebel against the Russian Empire.

Just when the Russian Empire needed helpers to fight together, the British Kingdom and the Austrian Empire also stood on their side, and they were bewitched by Jerome Bonaparte's rhetoric (Nicholas I always believed that the reason why the British Kingdom was the same The alliance of the French Empire is purely the credit of Jerome Bonaparte. Felix Schwarzenberg's friendliness to France also made Nicholas I feel very uncomfortable.) Be their accomplice, and it is fortunate that Christ descends The penalty replaced Felix.

Even so, the Kingdom of Britain still stands with the undead...

Standing under the portrait, Nicholas I began to think wildly. When he thought of how proud his brother Alexander I was when he faced the First Empire.

Nicholas I believed that he must not fall into the majesty of Romanov, even without the support of the Kingdom of Britain, the Russian Empire would be able to defeat the French Empire.

Thinking of this, a spontaneous sense of mission poured into Nicholas I's heart, making him determined to defeat the French Empire like Alexander I.

Just when Nicholas I was stunned, a servant suddenly broke into Nicholas I's room and informed Nicholas I of the fact that the Ottoman Grand Council had declared war on the Russian Empire. (France warned the Russian Empire to withdraw from the Danube before Nicholas I received the Ottoman Grand Council's declaration of war.)

"How dare they!" Nicholas I growled angrily.

He never thought that a poor and weak Ottoman Empire would take the initiative to declare war on the Russian Empire. He had given them enough time to think, why did they refuse to submit!

In the eyes of Nicholas I's hegemonic values, the Ottoman Empire's declaration of war on Nicholas I was a complete mistake.

"You say, why did they dare to declare war! You say!" Nicholas I shouted to the squire.

The attendant was too frightened to say a word due to Nicholas I's rage, and could only tremble to express to Nicholas I that the Ottoman Empire did not know how to be grateful to the Russian Empire!

After a while, the angry Nicholas I regained some sanity, and he also remembered the warning given to him by the French ambassador yesterday.

Nicholas I's face changed greatly, and he hurriedly asked the attendant attache about the time it took to travel from the Ottoman Empire to St. Petersburg.

The attendant attaché did not dare to be slighted, and immediately told Nicholas I.

After the Ottoman Grand Council issued a warning of war, it immediately sent the war book to Paskevich, who was stationed in the Danube region.

After Paskevich received the letter, he immediately summoned Gorchakov and others to discuss it. Attack, this section of the attendant attache is not aware of), and then immediately arrived at the side of Nicholas I, the whole journey took less than a week (6 days).

"Why did France get the news faster than you!" Nicholas I was keenly aware of the time problem on the way.

First from the Ottoman Empire to Paris, and then from Paris to St. Petersburg, this distance is much longer than the distance from Constantinople to St. Petersburg.

The middle does not include the time required for decision-making~www.novelhall.com~ According to common sense, the French ambassador gave him the warning should be after he received the news of the Ottoman Empire's declaration of war.

"This..." The attendant had nothing to do and didn't know, a telegram had been set up from Constantinople to Paris, and France already knew the news within a few hours after the decision was made by the Great Council of the Empire, and the subsequent decision and transmission of the news were Faster, so much so that it outpaced the horse-drawn carriage to deliver the message.

The large-scale application of the telegraph to the sentiments of France allowed France to be faster in every way and to get more information.

These are the conditions that Nicholas I could not have. The poor and weak Russian Empire simply did not have the extra money to build a telegraph line from the Russian Near East.

Furthermore, Nicholas I had no idea that the telegraph was used in military and diplomatic fields.

"Forget it! You go and call the Minister of War, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the Third Section!" Seeing the attendant who asked three questions in front of him, Nicholas I was angry, and he suppressed his anger. The attendant attache waved his hand and gave the order.

"Yes!" The attendant attache immediately responded to Nicholas I, and then immediately left the Imperial Village for St. Petersburg.
