Chapter 971: Request from the Russian Empire

Although Jérôme Bonaparte's reasons for punishing the Kingdom of Sardinia were completely untenable in De Ruys' view, De Ruys still agreed with Jérôme Bonaparte's punishment of Sardinia.

The kingdom strikes hard.

After all, the Kingdom of Sardinia is indeed a bit hesitant, and giving it a proper lesson would be conducive to friendly exchanges between the two countries.

"Yes! Your Majesty!" De Ruys said to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Okay! That's all I have to say!" Jerome Bonaparte breathed a long sigh of relief, and then asked De Ruys, "Is there anything else you want to report to me?"

"Your Majesty, I do have something to report to you!" De Ruys nodded and said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Tell me!" Jérôme Bonaparte said slowly to De Ruys, "Are there any new problems on the international front?"

"Yes! Your Majesty!" De Ruys shook his head and responded to Jérôme Bonaparte. "One day ago, the special envoy of the Kingdom of Württemberg arrived at my office and presented to me the official uniform of the Russian Imperial Government.

Appeal!”

"Which Russian Imperial Government?" Jerome Bonaparte asked subconsciously, and then he immediately realized that the Russian Imperial Government that his father-in-law befriended was the government of Alexander II.

"Your Majesty, it is the Russian Empire in Moscow!" De Luys replied to Jerome Bonaparte.

"You continue!" Jérôme Bonaparte waved his hand to De Ruys and continued.

“The Russian Imperial Government hopes that we can persuade the puppet government in St. Petersburg to surrender. They said that as long as Golitsyn is willing to surrender and the safety of Her Majesty the Queen and His Majesty the Crown Prince is guaranteed!

Alexander II can guarantee Prince Golitsyn’s safe departure from the Russian Empire!”

"Why didn't Alexander II himself tell Duke Golitsyn about these conditions?" Jerome Bonaparte said in confusion.

"Alexander II has repeatedly wanted to propose peace talks with Duke Golitsyn, but Golitsyn has never had the slightest idea of ​​peace talks!" De Ruys explained to Jerome Bonaparte, "So the Russian Empire hopes

We can persuade the Golitsyn government to ensure the personal safety of the Empress of the Russian Empire, the Empress Dowager, and several crown princes and princes!"

"They think too highly of us!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders, looked at De Luys and said, "Luys, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, I think we can try it!" De Luys replied slowly, "Whether this thing is successful or not, the Russian Empire will be grateful to us.

Why don't we give it a try!

What's more, Duke Golitsyn's St. Petersburg government may not be able to sustain it for too long!"

After Jerome Bonaparte pondered for a moment, he said to De Ruys with a solemn expression, "I'll leave this matter to you!

If Duke Golitsyn agrees, then we must do our best to ensure that Duke Golitsyn safely evacuates the Russian Empire!"

"Your Majesty, you mean that the Russian Empire may regret it!" De Ruys also responded with a stern expression.

"If I were Alexander, I would definitely not let this damn traitor go!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to De Luys. "Once this traitor is allowed to go unpunished, the tyranny of the Russian Empire will be destroyed."

The soil will be at risk of collapse."..."Your Majesty, I understand!" De Ruys replied to Jerome Bonaparte seriously, "If Duke Golitsyn really chooses to put pressure on

I will ask the embassy in St. Petersburg to personally escort them out!"

"No! It's not enough!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head, knocked on the table with his hand and said, "If it comes to that, Alexander will definitely go out and rob the embassy."

human operation.

You must work with the Kingdom of Sweden and the Kingdom of Britain after Golitsyn agrees to peace talks, and then the three countries will jointly form a convoy fleet to escort Golitsyn out of St. Petersburg!

Only in this way will Alexander have any concerns!

but……"

Jerome Bonaparte paused for a moment, then touched his chin and said, "There is a high probability that Duke Golitsyn will not agree to peace talks, and he will definitely fight Alexander II to the end!

Every republican attempts to awaken the indifferent world with his own passion, but unfortunately their passion is destined to not be approved by the world.

Perhaps only in the world a hundred years from now, people like them will be put back on the books of the Russian Empire.

However, the Russians probably oppose them more than they approve of them.

After all, without Prince Golitsyn, the Russian Empire would not have lost Poland and Finland."

De Luys nodded in agreement.

Immediately afterwards, Jérôme Bonaparte asked De Luys how many people their Ministry of Foreign Affairs had recruited in the Russian Empire who were willing to work in the colonies.

De Ruys told Jérôme Bonaparte that as of last month, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Colonial Department had recruited more than 200,000 Russian "free people" in Russia to go to Algeria, Senegal, and Gabon.

It is expected that about 100,000 more Slavs will continue to be recruited to live in the colony.

"When did Alexander become so kind!" Jérôme Bonaparte looked at De Ruys with slight surprise.

Although a single serf in the Russian Empire was not valuable, serfs in the hundreds of thousands were a considerable fortune.

Alexander II was able to allow this wealth to flow out.

"Your Majesty, I think His Majesty Alexander is not willing to do this!

However, he has to do so much! The war-torn land can no longer support such a huge population!" De Luys explained to Jérôme Bonaparte, "The one who signed the labor treaty with us was the military district in the Odessa region.

commander!"

Jérôme Bonaparte immediately understood what De Ruys meant. The current economic downturn in the Russian Empire meant that Alexander II needed to export a large amount of grain in exchange for foreign exchange and then purchase weapons.

Naturally, he could not care about the serfs who were struggling at the poverty line. In addition, the person who carried out human trafficking was the military leader he needed to rely on now. Alexander II naturally chose to turn a blind eye.

"We must ensure the male-to-female ratio of the Slavs introduced into the colony, and keep the price of female labor a little lower!" Jerome Bonaparte warned again.

"Understood!" De Ruys replied to Jérôme Bonaparte.

What Jérôme Bonaparte said, they have already started to implement... The male-to-female ratio of Russians transported to the colonies before was almost 3:1.

"Okay! It's getting late! Let's stop our conversation here!" Jerome Bonaparte stood up, stretched his body, lowered his head and said to De Ruys.

De Ruys quickly stood up and said goodbye to Jérôme Bonaparte, who personally sent De Ruys out of the study.



In the next few days, Minister de Ruiz's main focus was on discussing the division of territory of the Kingdom of Morocco with the special envoy of the Kingdom of Spain.

During the exchange with the envoy of the Kingdom of Spain, the envoy of the Kingdom of Spain repeatedly hoped that Tangier would become the territory of the Kingdom of Spain, but De Ruiz never relented.

In the end, the Spanish envoy had to give up his appeal to Tangier and pocketed Uzan and Ujda.

The division between the Kingdom of Spain and the Kingdom of Morocco by the French Empire ended with the Madrid Agreement.

The treaty stipulates that with Uzan and Oujda as the dividing line, the area north of the dividing line belongs to the Kingdom of Spain (except Tangier), and the area south of the dividing line belongs to the French Empire.

Neither France nor Spain can station troops in the demarcation line. Once a rebellion breaks out in the Kingdom of Morocco, both the northern and southern countries are obliged to assist each other in putting down the rebellion.

Businessmen from both countries enjoy most-favored-nation status for each other in the Kingdom of Morocco.



After the signing of the Treaty of Madrid, the originally endangered O'Donnell military government used the prestige gained from annexing land to barely stabilize the crumbling government, and the army and people began to move closer to O'Donnell.

O'Donnell, who gained temporary prestige, began to strike hard at the radical liberalism that he had been afraid to attack before.

Extremist newspapers in Madrid were forcibly closed by soldiers sent by O'Donnell to maintain security in Madrid, and thousands of liberals were arrested.

Some liberals attempted to launch a rebellion in the capital to overthrow the military government led by O'Donnell.

Unfortunately, it was too late. The liberals, who had lost the support of the people of Madrid, were completely vulnerable to the army.

Although the Spanish army could not defeat the French Empire, it could easily defeat a dozen unorganized liberals.

In the following period, nearly 10,000 more liberals were arrested by the O'Donnell government.

Immediately afterwards, the O'Donnell government learned from France's original operation and threw all these damn rebels into their colonies in the Kingdom of Morocco.

Thousands of Spaniards poured into Uzan and Oujda in a short period of time. These people frequently clashed with the indigenous people of the Kingdom of Morocco due to language barriers.

Many liberals lost their lives in the Moroccan colony. After understanding the situation, they had no choice but to follow the example of their French "predecessors" and join the Spanish army.

After forming an army of liberals, O'Donnell was able to send back some of the loyalists.

As for whether the formation of legions of liberals would lead to rebellion in the colonies, O'Donnell did not care.

Because even if these troops really rebel, they will not be able to fight back to New Delhi.

On the other hand, if they go too far in Morocco, France will naturally take care of these people on their behalf.
