Chapter 439 Heading to the Bosphorus

"So Ambassador Canning, let's get started now!"

Although Valewski was excited to promote a complete cooperation between Britain and France, he still put on a calm face and said to Canning unhurriedly.

"Hmm!" Ambassador Canning nodded at Walewski, then got up to leave the French Embassy.

"Klein, please give me a ride for Ambassador Canning!" Seeing that Canning was about to leave the French embassy, Wallewski immediately said to Klein.

"Yes!" Klein hurriedly responded, and then personally sent Canning out of the embassy.

Just as Canning was about to get into the carriage, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Klein.

Klein, who was stared at by Canning's sudden gaze, was slightly startled at first, and then smiled kindly at Canning.

"You're good!" Canning nodded, and after a remark that did not match the preface, he left the French embassy in a carriage.

Klein returned to the French embassy, and when he entered the embassy hall again, Walewski, who had been sitting on the sofa in the lobby, was nowhere to be seen.

Seeing this, Klein immediately went to the telegraph office on the second floor of the embassy, where Klein met with Valewski again.

At this time, Valewski was standing behind the two dispatchers, saying word for word to the dispatchers the telegram sent to Paris.

The dispatcher held his pen and bowed his head, dutifully recording every word that Valevsky said on a notepad.

When Walewski had finished, the caller sent the written words to Paris.

At this point, only the sound of a telegram was left in the room.

In this extremely quiet environment, Klein did not dare to breathe, and quietly waited for the telegram to be sent.

When the telegraph operator pressed the last "tick" note, he released his hand from the dot key and turned to nod at Valevsky.

Walewski naturally understood what Klein meant, and he also nodded at the telegraph operator, and said "hard work".

Then, Valewski also turned to look at Klein and said, "Canning is gone?" ”

"Gone!" Klein immediately replied to Valewski.

"Did he leave anything behind?" Walewski asked Klein again.

"Not really!" Klein shook his head at first, then added, "However, he said something very inexplicable!" ”

"Oh? What words! Valewski said.

"He said to me, I'm fine!" Klein scratched his head and said to Valewski.

"That guy Canning looks like he's found something!" Valevsky muttered quietly.

"Huh?!" Klein had a surprised look on his face, and then said in a slightly nervous voice, "Then ...... him?"

"What do you think?" Walewski shook his head, and patted Klein on the shoulder and said in relief: "Don't worry! My guess is that he only saw some anomalies slightly, and there is no conclusive evidence, so you don't have to be nervous! Besides, we still have the French Empire behind us, and His Majesty the Emperor, what are you afraid of! ”

Hearing Valewski's explanation, Klein realized that he was no longer the original self without background, and he didn't need to be afraid of this or that as he was before.

"And will our infiltration of the Syrian region continue?" Klein asked Valevsky again.

"Why not?" Valewski responded to Klein: "We have to infiltrate not only the Syrian region, but also the Baghdad region, so that they will oppose the Ottoman Empire there!" ”

"Your Excellency, what is the purpose of our doing? Wasn't the French Empire an ally of the Ottoman Empire? Klein asked Valefus, confused.

"Child, there is only mutual use between nations, and there are no eternal allies!" Like the godfather of the underworld, Valevsky said bitterly to Klein: "The reason why we are willing to unite with the Kingdom of Britain is because neither of our countries wants to see the Russian Empire occupy the Near East, so the Ottoman Empire has become the object of our wooing. When the Russian threat is over, the Ottoman Empire will once again be at the mercy of the European powers. And all of this is done in the interests of the country. ”

"I see!" Klein nodded at Valevsky in response, then added, "However, I don't understand why the Empire would want to attack Baghdad!" As far as I know, there is nothing but sand there! ”

Tani/span: "I don't know about that!" Valewski shook his head and said to Klein: "However, this order was given by the Emperor himself, so we just need to carry it out resolutely!" ”

Before the invention of the internal combustion engine, no one would have paid attention to the black "gold mines" buried beneath the soil of the Middle East.

And Jérôme. It was precisely because of this that Bonaparte gave an order to Valewski and others to control the land at all costs.

It was Klein's astonishing linguistic talent and brilliant mind that led him to make an exception for him to become the third secretary of the embassy, specializing in Syria and Iraq.

Crane lived up to his expectations and traveled to the Baghdad region, where he used the local Pasha to make an arms deal with the "rebels."

It's just that Klein's action seems to have been noticed by Canning.

Fortunately, with Walewski's endorsement, Klein was also a little relieved.

On the other hand, Canning, who had returned to his embassy by carriage from the French embassy, immediately sent a telegram to the British government about the destruction of the Ottoman navy.

After the message was sent, Canning did not stop too much at his own embassy and went to the port of Constantinople.

Then, in the port of Constantinople, he took a starry night trip on a clipper ship, and finally arrived at the headquarters of the Mediterranean Fleet in Malta that night.

"Lieutenant General Dundas! I now order your troops to set off for the Bosphorus at once! "Canning, who had just stepped into the headquarters with his front foot, rushed to the commander of the Mediterranean Fleet, James Brown, with his back foot. Dundas gave the order.

"Your Excellency, what happened?" James. Dundas asked Cunning suspiciously.

"That's right!" Canning informed James of the total destruction of the Ottoman Empire. Dundas.

James. Dundas showed an expression of disbelief and asked Canning again, "Your Excellency Canning, is there a mistake in the intelligence!" As far as I know, the difference in strength between the Ottoman fleet and the Russian fleet is not obvious. Even if the Ottoman navy was defeated, there was absolutely no reason for its total annihilation. I wonder if this is a deliberate attempt by the Ottoman Empire to exaggerate its own crisis in exchange for our help! ”

"Nope! No, it won't! Canning shook his head at James. Dundas responded, "What told me about this is the naval advisor sent to the Ottoman Empire by the Kingdom of Britain!" He saw with his own eyes the total annihilation of the Ottoman fleet by the Russian Empire! Now the Ottoman Empire has only a few broken ships left, and it is not at all a match for the Russian Empire! ”

"Since he is an adviser to our navy, did he tell your Excellency the ambassador how the Russian Imperial Navy defeated the Ottoman fleet?" James. Dundas asked Cunning again.

Canning relayed Slade's words to James. Lieutenant General Dundas.

"I see!" James. Lieutenant General Dundas breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded in agreement: "If it's a blossom bomb, then everything will be explained!" The Russian Empire will only succeed in a sneak attack if it is unprepared! In the final analysis, it was the Ottoman Empire itself that was negligent in preventing the problem. If it were our fleet, then such a situation would not have arisen! ”

"Lieutenant General Dundas! This is not the time to discuss who is responsible, and we must give those people some confidence...... I know the people in the Gaomen government too well, once the news comes now! Those guys must be thinking of negotiating peace with the Russian Empire! "Canning vs. James. Dundas said.

"Your Excellency, I don't understand, and I don't want to know, about political issues!" James. Dundas said to Canning with a straight face, "I just need to understand what exactly we are going to do!" Is it to help the Ottoman Empire annihilate the fleet of the Russian Empire, or is it just to ensure the security of the Ottoman Empire's own territory! ”

"After all, the Kingdom of Britain has not declared war on the Russian Empire, so we cannot conflict with the Russian Empire, so the main purpose of this mission is to protect the territory of the Ottoman Empire!"

"And do you want to call up our fleet in the Greek seas!" James. Dundas asked Cunning again.

Since the attempted skirmish between Britain and France, a small part of the British Mediterranean Fleet has been under the command of Adjutant Edmond Brown. Leon's leaders stayed in the Greek seas.

Although this small part of the Mediterranean Fleet was nominally resting in Greece, it was in fact intended to monitor the French fleet in the Mediterranean.

"Of course!" Ambassador Canning to James. Dundas responded: "This time we must unite with France to maintain the maritime security of the Ottoman Empire!" ”

"Yes!" James. Dundas immediately responded to Canning.

Subsequently, James. Dundas sent a steam speedboat to the Kingdom of Greece to inform the Mediterranean Fleet of the news.

When the envoys arrived, they found that the fleet of the Kingdom of Britain was already ready to go.

After inquiry, it turned out that it was the French ambassador Walewski who had arrived here ahead of schedule and informed the local members of the British fleet about the union.

Then, he led the French fleet in advance to tell the Bosphorus.
