After hearing what Nicholas I said, Duke Golitsyn was still a little moved in his heart.
However, I was moved. In order for the Russian nation to escape the rule of the tyrant like the French nation, Nicholas I must become a sacrifice in the new era.
Nikolai must die because Mother Russia needs to live.
"Your Majesty, thank you for your trust in me! I will do my best to serve you!" Duke Golitsyn stood upright and said to Nicholas I loudly.
At this time, Nicholas I, who did not know that the biggest rebel next to him, ordered Duke Golitsyn: "Very good! I just have a task that you need to complete!"
Golitsyn immediately gave a military salute to Nicholas I in his open class.
Nicholas I told Duke Golitsyn that since Orlov, the head of the Russian Third Chamber of Commerce, has now gone to Crimea, he wants to let Duke Golitsyn temporarily take over the post of top minister of the Third Chamber of Commerce and will lurk
Catch all the rebels in the Russian Empire!
"This..." Prince Golitsyn deliberately pretended to be hesitant.
"What's wrong?" Nicholas I asked Duke Golitsyn kindly: "Is there something unspeakable?"
"No...no!" Duke Golitsyn shook his head first, and then replied to Nicholas I as if he had made a lot of determination: "Your Majesty, please allow me to refuse this position!"
Nicholas I had an astonished expression on his face, and asked with confusion: "Why refuse?"
"Your Majesty! I have been entrusted by you with the important task of commanding the entire Tsarskoe Selo Guards! Now you are planning to hand over the third hall to me, which is really inconsistent with the regulations!" Duke Golitsyn replied to Nicholas I.
.
"Regulations? The regulations of the entire empire were established by me. I can establish them and I can also abolish them!" Nicholas I looked at Duke Golitsyn and paused, then said to Duke Golitsyn: "I understand your
I mean, you are afraid that I will be suspicious of you because I hold too many positions, right?"
"I don't dare! Your Majesty, your mind is not as broad as the Volga River. How could you be suspicious of me because of this little thing?" Duke Golitsyn lowered his head and flattered Nicholas I.
"Then what are you worried about?" Nicholas I asked Duke Golitsyn as a gift.
"Your Majesty, I have nothing to worry about!" Golitsyn said during the public lecture: "If your Majesty insists on asking me to take over, then please resign from this position!"
"You..." Nicholas I pointed at Duke Golitsyn angrily, and then coughed violently. Upon seeing this, Duke Golitsyn quickly patted Nicholas I gently on the back.
The coughing continued for a long time and then stopped. A smile appeared on Nicholas I's face and he said: "Okay! Mr. Golitsyn, I won't force you!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Prince Golitsyn seemed relieved.
"However, you need to recommend a suitable person for me. He needs to be able to find out how many rebels there are in St. Petersburg as soon as possible!" Nicholas I said to Duke Golitsyn with a ferocious expression: "I want to kill them one by one.
Hang them all!"
Therefore, Duke Golitsyn recommended Viscount Nikolai Orlov, who was also a member of the Orlov family, to Nicholas I.
"This man is a member of the Orlov family. Is he really trustworthy?" Nicholas I frowned and asked Duke Golitsyn in confusion.
"Your Majesty, although he is a member of the Orlov family, his relationship with Count Orlov is not very good!" Duke Golitsyn responded to Nicholas I: "And this Orlov
Viscount Love once worked in the Third Hall for a period of time, so he is very familiar with the Third Hall."
"Then why did he leave the third hall?" Nicholas I asked curiously.
"Your Majesty, he personally prefers military life, so he applied to leave the Third Hall to work in the army!" Prince Golitsyn responded to Nicholas I.
"The army!" Nicholas I, who still had a favorable impression of the Russian Imperial Army, nodded and asked Duke Golitsyn: "Which army does he work in?"
"In the Guards..." Prince Golitsyn replied.
"What now?" Nicholas I continued to ask.
"Now out of the army!" Prince Golitsyn responded.
Upon hearing that Nikolai Orlov was an "idler" who had left the army, Nicholas I's expression immediately changed from appreciation to alienation.
In his opinion, anyone who cannot endure military life has no ability to achieve great things.
Nikolai Orlov, who sensed the change in Nicholas I's attitude, hurriedly added, "Viscount Orlov left angrily because he couldn't stand the corruption in the army and wanted to stop it, but was ostracized by his peers.
, he had already held the position of major general at that time."
The image of an upright soldier immediately appeared in Nicholas I's mind. He smiled and responded to Duke Golitsyn: "If my father were alive, he would definitely love this type of officer very much!"
The father mentioned by Nicholas I was naturally Tsar Paul who was killed by a conspiracy.
The death of Tsar Paul not only had a profound impact on the Holy King Alexander I, but also had a profound impact on Nicholas I.
Part of the reason why Nicholas I loved soldiers was because of the original Tsar Paul.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean..." Duke Golitsyn did not understand what Nicholas I meant.
"Then let him try!" Nicholas I responded to Duke Golitsyn, "If it doesn't work, just choose another one."
"Yes! Your Majesty!" Prince Golitsyn, who was ecstatic in his heart, responded with a calm expression on his face.
Subsequently, Nicholas I asked Duke Golitsyn to bring Nikolai Orlov to see him now.
After receiving the order, Duke Golitsyn left Tsarskoe Selo and took a carriage to the residence of Viscount Nikolai Orlov.
After hearing the arrival of Duke Golitsyn, Viscount Nikolai Orlov immediately went out to greet him.
After the two met in a room, Prince Golitsyn immediately asked him to follow him to meet Tsar Nicholas I.
"Your Excellency, are you ready to take action?" Nikolai Orlov asked Duke Golitsyn in a low voice.
"No! It's still early!" Duke Golitsyn shook his head and responded in a low voice: "We must wait for Nicholas (I) to dispatch another army to Crimea before launching an uprising! By that time,
All of Petersburg will be under our control!"
"Then why do we need to enter Tsarskoye Selo now?" Nikolai Orlov asked doubtfully.
"Nicholas (I) has discovered that we stole weapons from the armory, and he is ordering us to pursue it to the end!" Duke Golitsyn said to Viscount Nikolai Orlov.
"I know!" Nikolai Orlov responded with a serious face.
"What do you know?" Duke Golitsyn looked at Nikolai Orlov with a confused expression. He himself had not yet said how Viscount Nikolai Orlov knew.
"Didn't you come here to arrest me?" Nikolai Orlov responded to Prince Golitsyn.
"Who said that?" Duke Golitsyn looked at Viscount Nicholas Orlov dumbfounded, and then told him that he had recommended him to Nicholas I.
"What? Let me take control of the third hall??!!!" Nikolai Orlov said excitedly to Duke Golitsyn.
"That's right! You have to act like you are sworn in with Orlov (Count), and at the same time..." Prince Golitsyn said to Nikolai Orlov word by word.
"Okay! I understand!" Nikolai Orlov nodded, and then asked again: "How should I investigate the theft of the armory?"
"You can find any organization to convict you of this matter. Anyway, we are not the only organization in St. Petersburg that wants to kill the Tsar!" Duke Golitsyn said to Nikolai Orlov: "What you need is to use all your strength.
Use all means to force them to become adults. Just steal the armory from them! If necessary, you can also catch the British and French spies lurking in the empire..."
"Isn't France cooperating with us? Will anything happen if we hand them over to the Tsar?" Viscount Nikolai Orlov asked Duke Golitsyn worriedly.
"What can happen?" Duke Golitsyn didn't care about France's attitude at all, "Can they still turn against us because of one or two spies?
Nicholas, you have to remember that the relationship between us and France is not comradeship! If Nicholas I himself is a sick tiger, then France and Britain are two tigers in their prime.
And we are also young tigers, and our goal is to kill the sick tiger as soon as possible, and then absorb its nutrients to deter the two prime tigers, Britain and France."
"Do we really have the ability to deter them?" Nikolai Orlov was worried that Britain and France would take advantage of the situation.
"How is our current situation different from France during the Revolution? Once we win in Petersburg, we will incite people from all over Russia to rush against their lords! In this way, we will have tens of millions of like-minded compatriots! There are
With the support of these people, we can deal with Britain and France!
As long as it survives the early stage, Russia will become more and more powerful in our hands. By then, Britain and France will no longer be able to deter us." Duke Golitsyn painted a beautiful picture for Nikolai Orlov
The strategic blueprint: "As a civilized Slavic nation, we will also assume the important task of enlightening other Slavic nations, and even the task of enlightening the entire European monarchies. (The Slavs have a unique and mysterious self-confidence, thinking that they are the great savior of Europe. Ni
This was the case with the monarchical alliance of Gula I, the revolutionary alliance of Prince Golitsyn, and later the Soviets.)"
Nikolai Orlov was obviously moved by Duke Golitsyn's wonderful blueprint. He nodded and said to Duke Golitsyn: "I listen to you!"
