After consulting with Arshavin and Yeshchenko at the station, Witt was accompanied by everyone to the office building of the Vilnius provincial government in the center of the city. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info Governor of Vilnius Province Igor Yuryevich Akinfeev was standing there nervously preparing to greet him, although he thought he was still very good to Witte - kind and gentle, but for Russian officials big and small Witte's notoriety had already spread, just because everywhere he went was often accompanied by people.

Witte got out of the carriage, and Akinfeev immediately stepped forward and said: "Your Excellency, Secretary General, I am the Governor of Vilnius Province, I'm Igor. Yuryevich. Akinfeev, welcome to your visit to Vilnius. ”

When Witt heard this, he stepped forward and said lightly: "Your Excellency, Governor, I'm very embarrassed. I was just passing through Vilnius, but I didn't expect this to happen as soon as I got off the train. While I was in Petersburg, I heard that the Polish-Lithuanian revolt was rampant, and that the members of the Underground Sem Council, in particular, were fearless in the Polish-Lithuanian provinces. Therefore, I had to come to the provincial capital to consult with His Excellency the Governor. ”

"Your Excellency the Secretary-General has said that this is our failure to do a good job in law and order, and it is our blessing to have the guidance of His Excellency the Secretary-General." Akinfeev smiled and said, "I also invite His Excellency the Secretary-General to the conference room, and the principal officials of the provincial government will be present to listen to the instructions of His Excellency the Secretary-General." ”

When Witte heard this, he said to Akinfeev: "Your Excellency, I don't think there is any need to go to the conference room, just go to your office, and there is no need for others to attend for the time being, I have some things I want to communicate with Your Excellency the Governor alone." ”

Akinfeev was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that there must be something important in front of him, so he invited Werther to his office. Akinfeev's office was not luxurious, it could be said to be extremely shabby compared to the governor's office that Werther had seen in other cities, so Werther sat down and picked up the coffee he had just made and said with a smile: "This office of Your Excellency Akinfeev is elegant, I wonder where Your Excellency was educated before becoming the governor?" ”

"Before coming to Vilnius, I was teaching at Kazan University, and your father and I were classmates at Novorossiysk University." Akinfeev replied.

After hearing this, Witt said: "Uncle Akinfeev, I have come here to find out what this so-called Sem meeting is all about. ”

Hearing this, Akinfeev said with a serious face: "The Council of Sem is actually the parliament of the Kingdom of Poland. At the Congress of Vienna in 1815 it was decided to form the Kingdom of Poland on the basis of the Duchy of Warsaw, but under the rule of His Majesty the Emperor of our respect, as a semi-independent state of a confederation character. In 1831, the parliamentarians of the Kingdom of Poland voted to remove His Majesty the Emperor from his right to rule in response to His Majesty's repeated curtailments of the Constitution. After 11 months of repression, His Majesty abolished the Constitution, the Army, and the Legislature of the Kingdom of Poland by publishing the General Principles of the Kingdom of Poland. From this time on, the Council of Sem officially went underground, and they rebelled against our rule by agitating the people at the bottom, and a series of assassinations and riots followed, and the 'January Riots' 30 years ago were also organized by these people, and then by Mihai . General Mlajov suppressed it. Some of the Marxists at the Sem Conference formed the Social Democratic Party in the previous year, and the whole province of the former Kingdom of Poland became even more chaotic. ”

"So that's how it is, Uncle Akinfeev, this matter is no longer a matter of Vilnius province, it is a matter of the entire region of the former Kingdom of Poland." After listening to Akinfeev's words, Witte mused, "Therefore, I suggest that you call the governors, police chiefs, and royal intelligence chiefs of the other provinces of the former Kingdom of Poland at once, and ask them all to come to Vilnius for a meeting, and we must think of a practical plan, preferably to solve this problem once and for all." ”

After hearing this, Akinfeev said: "Then I'll contact you now, I'll ask someone to take you to your place, you can rest first, and I'll have someone bring lunch directly." ”

"Then I'll be tired of Uncle Akinfeev." After saying that, Witte got up and went to his room where he was resting under the arrangement of Akinfeev. When he got into the room, Witte didn't feel much sleepy at all, and he couldn't help but think that the Polish question was a headache for the Russians. In fact, from a historical point of view, these two countries actually have a natural possibility of integration, if it is replaced by China, let alone more than 100 years, I am afraid that in more than ten years, such a country with the same language and species as itself will be assimilated.

The Vistula River valley in present-day Poland is the main area of activity of the Slavic ancestors of the Veneds, and it can also be said that it is the birthplace of the Slavic people. In the 5th and 6th centuries AD, the Germanic peoples moved westward under the pressure of the Huns, a people-induced ethnic group in Northeast Asia, causing a chain of great migrations of the Slavs - the Slavs moved westward into the area between the Oder and Elbe-Saale rivers, southward into Bohemia, Moravia, Hungary, and the Balkans, and northward along the upper reaches of the Dnieper. Due to the impact of the great migration of ethnic groups, it gradually divided into three major branches, and different names appeared: the western branch is called the Veneds, the eastern branch is called the Ante, and the southern branch is called the Slavin. Later, due to the close ties between the southern Slavs and the Byzantines, which are mostly found in historical records, the "Slavins" or "Slavs" became the collective name of the various Slavic peoples.

From the 7th century to the 12th century AD, the Slavic peoples began to establish states. The first Slavic state appeared in the West Slavic region, known as the Principality of Satsuma, which was founded in 623. In 830, the Great Moravian State was founded. the establishment of the Czech principality at the beginning of the 10th century; The Kingdom of Poland was born in 965. The Eastern Slavs established a powerful Kievan Rus' at the end of the 9th century. The southern Slavs founded the Slavic Bulgarian kingdom in 681. After the establishment of the state, the various Slavic peoples gradually began to accept the Christian church of Jesus as their religion, thus replacing the previous polytheistic beliefs.

At the beginning of the 11th century, with the great schism between the Eastern and Western churches, the Slavic peoples established states began to fight each other, and Poland-Lithuania and other places believed in Catholicism, while Russia believed in Orthodox Christianity, and it was because of this that Poland and Russia had a feud. When Poland was strong, it invaded Russia and occupied land; But with the rise of Russia, Poland has gradually become a meal to be slaughtered by others. From 1772 to 1795, Russia, Austria and Prussia partitioned Poland three times, resulting in the collapse of Poland.

As for the Lithuanian region, in 1240 the Grand Duchy of Lithuania was established in Lithuania, which belonged to a Germanic feudal lord, and gradually formed the Lithuanian nation after the establishment of the principality, and the 14th-15th centuries were the most powerful period for the entire Grand Duchy of Lithuania, during which their territory expanded eastward to the area of what is now Western Russia, Ukraine and Belarus. However, by 1569, the state began to decline, and Lithuania had no choice but to merge with the then powerful Kingdom of Poland to form a unified Polish-Lithuanian Kingdom. In the third partition of Poland in 1795, the entire Lithuanian region (except for the Klaipeda region) was incorporated into Russia, and the former Lithuanian region was divided into provinces directly under the jurisdiction of Russia, including Vilnius Province, Lithuanian Province and other provinces directly under the central government. However, because of the long-term merger with Poland, the entire Lithuanian nation and the Polish nation were in the same boat, and in the successive oppositions against Russian rule, the Lithuanian and Polish regions cooperated tacitly, and although they were repeatedly suppressed, their belief in independence did not waver in the slightest.
