Cal. Nicholas I's answer was a little moved, not because he was unaware of the bullshit in the army, and it wasn't that he didn't want to put the Russian Empire in order.

It's just that the military is involved in too many and too many interest groups, and the problem can only be solved without making up our minds and risking shaking the foundation of the military.

One of the most important reasons why Alexander II was able to carry out reforms was the heavy damage inflicted on the Russian Imperial army by the French Empire and the Kingdom of Britain in the Balkans.

It shook the foundations of the Russian Imperial Army, thus making the people of the Imperial Army and the Tsar determined to carry out reforms. In a way, the Crimean War accelerated the pace of industrialization of the Russian Empire.

If the Russian Empire had not faced defeat, the superstructure of the Russian Empire would not have been renovated.

Counting on the autonomy of a rotten regime is a pipe dream.

Even so, the reform of serfs and the army in the Russian Empire was only halfway through, and it was stagnant due to various external factors.

How could Nicholas I risk the overthrow of Tsarist authority to carry out reforms, he always remembered how his father Paul I died!

For Nicholas I, the existing generals in the army, although they were garbage, scum, scum, parasites, were also loyal to his garbage, scum, scum......

Will those guys who are not garbage, scum, and scum really be true to themselves? I'm afraid it's hard!

Nicholas I will never forget what he said when he hanged the Twelve officers.

Unable to shake the existing system, Nicholas I's attempt to reform was nothing more than a dream.

Instead of letting the army gradually become rotten and fragile, it is better to send the army to the battlefield!

Only the victor will not be blamed by anyone!

To Carl. The solution that Nicholas I spoke of was only slightly moved, and then immediately turned into a solution to all problems by force.

Nicholas I looked at Karl under the steps. Nesher Rodie replied coldly: "If you follow your method, I'm afraid I won't want to include Constantinople in my territory for the rest of my life!" ”

"Your Majesty, the situation in Constantinople is complicated! It's far from a one-time problem, so please be patient and wait for your chance! "Carl. Nesherro replied to Nicholas I sincerely.

"I can't wait that long, and I don't want to leave this problem to the crown prince! There is something for a generation to solve! "Nicholas I had no intention of compromising in the slightest, he had already made up his mind.

Either the Russian Empire succeeded in capturing Constantinople, then he was able to carry out reforms by virtue of his prestige.

Either the Russian Empire will unfortunately lose, and then he will take all the crimes on himself and let his son have successfully reformed.

Nicholas I had lived for a long time, and he had to leave a space for his son, for the Russian Empire.

"Since Your Majesty has made up your mind, then the minister has nothing to say!" Cal. Neschelro replied in disbelief to Nicholas I.

"However, I am still willing to listen to some of the strategies you said!" Nicholas I turned to Karl. Nesherro said.

Immediately, Nicholas I once again summoned the loyal attendant military attache in and instructed: "You immediately go to Prince Paskevich's troops and tell Prince Paskevich to let him and General Gorchakov's troops stay in the principality of Wallachia and wait for news from St. Petersburg!" ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! The attendant military attaché saluted and left the Amber Room.

Cal. When Neshero and Dolgorukov heard about Nicholas I's arrangement, they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts at the same time.

As long as His Majesty the Tsar did not use force against the Ottoman Empire, then everything had room for maneuver.

After all, without the use of force, the negotiations should be handed over to Karl. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, led by Nesel Rodie.

Once the Russian Empire starts a war, everything is not easy to talk about.

However, the next sentence of Nicholas I made the hearts of the two people who were originally in a good mood fall to the bottom again.

"I have decided to send General Menshikov to the Ottoman Empire to negotiate with the Ottoman Empire!" Nicholas I decided to bypass the diplomatic service and send a loyal man to talk to the Ottoman Empire.

"Your Majesty, General Menshikov is not at all fit to be a qualified diplomat, he should be a good general, not a diplomat." Cal. Nesserrodi couldn't help but speak again, he was afraid that Menshikov would bury all the diplomacy of the Russian Empire.

"General Menshikov has already led the rapprochement of Prussia with Austria, and I am sure that he will be able to successfully make an envoy to the Ottoman Empire!" Nicholas I seems to have almost blind confidence in Menshikov.

The reconciliation between Prussia and Austria was possible solely because the Kingdom of Prussia was crushed militarily and the Austrian Empire was financially defeated by Jérôme. The result of the Bonaparte freeze, coupled with the pressure exerted by the European countries on these two countries.

The Austro-Prussian rapprochement can be said to be the masterpiece of the whole of Europe, and Menshikov played no more than to pass on the demands of the Russian Empire to the Kingdom of Prussia.

Now that the Tsar is bent on getting rid of the Ottoman Empire, Karl Brown. Nesherro also had no good idea, and he could only hope that Menshikov would not make some bottomless demands.

Otherwise, the negotiations will fail.

"One more thing!" Once again, the voice of Nicholas I came from the throne, and he pointed to Karl. "From now on, all diplomacy related to the Ottoman Empire will be under my control. Chancellor Karl, you don't have to worry about this anymore! If you have time, you can deal with the diplomacy between Germany and France! ”

Cal. Nicholas I looked at him with a blank expression, and he never imagined that he, the foreign minister, would one day be overshadowed by the monarch.

Since Nicholas I wants to empty himself, it is better to let him resign himself.

"Your Majesty, I beg to resign!" Cal. Nesherro Die's resignation to Nicholas I.

"I said, I really don't allow it!" Nicholas I still rejected Karl with a brutal attitude. Nesherrody's request for resignation immediately changed his tone and he said with relief: "It is also very important to maintain diplomatic relations between Prussia and Austria!" I hope you don't let me down! ”

"Yes!" Cal. Nesherro replied abruptly.

On January 1, 1853, Karl. Nesherro lost all diplomatic power associated with the Ottoman Empire.

Including the Ottoman ministers, the ambassador of the Russian Empire to the Ottoman Empire, etc., they could directly meet with Nicholas I, and everything was decided by Nicholas I.

After taking over all the diplomatic materials and documents of the Russian Empire and the Ottoman Empire, Nicholas I spent about half a month looking at them and talking to them one by one.

Finally, in the middle of the first month of 1853, he wrote his plan for the partition of the Ottoman Empire.

The Russian Empire will occupy the Danube Principality and the Dobroga region in the delta, Serbia and Bulgaria will be under the remote control of the Russian Empire as two independent Slavic states, the Adriatic coast, Bosnia, and Herzegovina will be under the Austrian Empire, Cyprus, Rhodes, and Egypt will be owned by the British, France will receive Crete, Greece will receive its surrounding dependencies, and Constantinople will become an international city. Under international protection, the Ottoman Empire would be expelled from Europe completely.

In the eyes of Nicholas I, the whole plan was simply perfect, and the areas occupied by Russia, Britain and Austria were about the same, in order to keep the French Empire from criticizing the Russian Empire internationally, Nicholas I "kindly" gave the French Empire Crete, even Greece, which shared its younger brother, could get certain benefits.

In addition to the Ottoman Empire, the wounded world was reached in the manuscript of Nicholas I.

It's just that Nicholas I didn't take into account the attitude of other countries towards the Russian Empire, and the Russian Empire, which occupied the Danube Duchy and the Dobroga region, had formed a network of encirclement against the Austrian Empire, and the two Slavic states were said to be independent states, but in fact they were puppet states of the Russian Empire, and they might be annexed by the Russian Empire one day, and such a partition would be a nightmare for the Austrian Empire.

Of course, the Russian Empire's behavior was no better for the Kingdom of Britain, and Cyprus and Rhodes did help Britain to control the maritime supremacy of the Mediterranean, but the surrender of Crete to France posed the possibility of seriously provoking lochia and undermining the internal struggle between France and Britain. On the Egyptian side, British capital and French capital are competing, even if the Russian Empire declares that Egypt will be owned by Britain, and Britain will be able to limit French capital? Or is it that Britain can send troops to attack Egypt, although Egypt's combat effectiveness at the crossroads of Europe and Asia is not as good as that of the European powers, but it is also stronger than the Ottoman Empire, and forcible annexation will only break Britain's teeth.

As for the French Empire, unless Nicholas I was willing to go along with Jérôme. Bonaparte crushed the German region, otherwise he would never have been able to stop the momentum of the French Empire's heavy blow against Russia.

To sum up, the plan that Nicholas I thought of was only beneficial to his own family, without taking into account the interests of other countries, if such a plan could be accepted by Britain, France and Austria, unless Nicholas I was the son of destiny.

It turns out that a monarch without AC numbers is an international laughing stock.

The mind was still stuck in the 1844 visit to Britain, and Nicholas I was in high spirits to discuss this plan with Seymour, the British ambassador to Russia.
