In Saint Petersburg, after receiving the news of the death of Minister White in London, Alexander III was directly blown up.

If it were n’t for the last trace of reason, to restrain the idea of ​​killing the British Minister as a revenge, the biggest political scandal of this century will happen.

”This is the explanation of the British, clearly we are treated as fools!”

Having finished speaking, Alexander III tore up the document directly, proving with actual actions that he was really angry.

There is no way not to be angry. According to the British, the main responsibility is that White ’s ambassador is unobstructed, which angered the British people before an accident happened.

The dead cannot speak, all the parties are controlled by the British, and the truth of the matter cannot be discerned at all.

Regardless of whether others believe it or not, Alexander III will not believe it anyway. Minister White was appointed by him personally, there may be a lot of problems, but it is definitely not a fool.

If it is sent to some small countries, it may really be arrogant. But as a minister in the UK, where is White's arrogance?

In particular, it is nonsense to admit that the Russian army attacked the British troops stationed in Afghanistan.

Not to mention that this was a foolproof thing, even if it really happened, it would not be possible for the embassy to confess abroad even when the Tsarist government firmly denied it.

Field Secretary Marshal Ivanov persuaded: ”Your Majesty, breath away your anger. There is no need to spoil your body for the **** British.

When the Central Asian war is over, we will slowly liquidate with them. ”

Having become the leader of the main battle group, Marshal Ivanov has not changed his usual steady style.

It is necessary to retaliate against the British, and we have to wait until the fight is over.

Turning your face with the British in advance, except for a few voices, has essentially no effect at all, and may even increase the difficulty of the war.

Britain and Russia have different systems. The tsarist government controls all national rights and can prepare for war nationwide at any time; however, the British government must be subject to parliament.

Before the beginning of the war, the government could not pass the parliament and directly order the mobilization of the whole country. Even if it is preparing for war, it can only be carried out on a small scale.

If you do n’t take advantage of what you see in front of you, it ’s a fool.

After a short pause, Alexander III nodded: ”Since the British are going to fight, then complete them.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has done a good job in France and Austria, and cooperated with the Ministry of Finance to raise as much funds as possible. This war cannot be ended in a short time. ”

After making a decision, Alexander III still had no idea. There is a lesson from the Russian-Russian war that Alexander III was unwilling to go to war with any big country.

But the general trend is not controlled by individual will. The repeated provocations of the British have already touched the bottom line of the Russian Empire.

...

In the battlefield of Afghanistan, outside disturbances have not yet spread, and Lieutenant General Patrick does not know that a telegram he shirks his responsibility can become another turning point in the relationship between Britain and Russia.

At this moment, Lieutenant General Patrick is still worried about the increasing number of casualties.

Especially on the night two days ago, after the 7th Indian Colonial Division headquarters was attacked by guerrillas, there was also a battalion.

”Hirst, that idiot, why wasn't it used for meetings?”

This meeting was originally accountable, and the party did not actually come, and it was understandable that Lieutenant Patrick had flared.

A young military officer in the near future replied: ”My Excellency Commander, Major General Hearst was hit by a bomb on the way to the headquarters and is currently being rescued.”

This answer chilled Patrick's heart.

In the mutiny two days ago, many high-ranking officers of the Seventh Colony Division went to see God. If Major General Hirst also saw God, things would be worse.

Generally speaking, dead people are not responsible. During the meeting, he was attacked and saw God. This was also due to his martyrdom.

The officers who can take responsibility are all dead, and the following officers are not qualified to take responsibility. This black pot can only be carried by Patrick, the general commander.

It should be known that in the British Foreign War, there have been no officers of the rank of major general who have been killed in battle for many years.

Even if the officers of the Indian Colonial Division are one step below the regular army, the major general is still the major general.

The life and death of the person concerned are unknown, and Lieutenant General Patrick has no intention of continuing accountability.
