Chapter 240 Trust me, I can find you

For Britain, the Russian Empire will lose its threat unless it is split into countless small countries, each with a territory of no more than 244,100 square kilometers.

But in this way, the European continent will lose its balance again.

So Russia cannot die.

You can’t live too well either.

Yes, Britain just wants Russia to die.

As the super duke Yurievsky of the Russian Empire, George certainly cannot let this happen.

Between the Russian Empire and Britain, only one can survive.

So don’t blame the British for targeting George.

Even if the British don't target George, George will not let the British go.

The Russian Empire has many labels, such as the widest territory, the richest resources, the largest strategic depth, the largest local population, etc.

These are Russia’s original sins.

Britain has only one original sin, and that is the most powerful country in the world.

The pirates outside Jeju Island did not linger for too long. After the pirates who landed were eliminated, the three pirate ships quickly slipped away and disappeared without a trace.

Of the 46 pirates who landed, all were killed except for two who were captured.

Of the two captured pirates, one of them died of his injuries. Only one pirate named Eugenes survived, and this guy was a Pole.

Between 1772 and 1795, the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia, together with the Austrian Empire, divided Poland through three wars. The territory occupied by Russia accounted for about 62% of the original Polish territory, totaling more than 460,000 square kilometers; Prussia took away about 20%, totaling about 141,100 square kilometers; Austria received 18%, totaling about 121,800 square kilometers.

After the fall of Poland, a large number of Poles fled overseas. Eugene's grandfather went to Cape Town to work as a sailor and settled down in Cape Town.

Six months ago, Eugene was hired by a Dutchman in Cape Town and became a sailor.

“So, the pirates are Dutch?”

Milyutin was surprised that the Dutch were really brave.

"Even if he is a Dutch person, he cannot prove that he has a relationship with the Dutch government."

George will not elevate his personal behavior to the level of the country.

In addition to the captured Poles, the pirates who were killed were of all kinds. The British, French, Qing people, and even a few Slavs were impossible to trace.

What made George even more angry was that the reinforcements from the Siberian Fleet did not arrive at Jeju until two days later, which strengthened George's determination to arm Jeju Island.

Even if pirates can't land on the island.

Such a visit every three to five times will have an immeasurable impact on Jeju.

George not only wanted to arm Jeju, but also ordered two warships from the Baltic Shipyard of the Russian Empire in the name of the Goryeo government to protect Jeju Port.

The money for ordering warships was of course borrowed from the Bank of Siberia.

So all the pressure shifted to Goryeo.

During this period, Goryeo was buying artillery and ordering warships. What do you want to do?

Not only the British have this question.

The Qing Empire and Japan were also deeply worried.

Goryeo was a vassal state of the Qing Empire. Without the help of the Qing Empire, Goryeo would not be able to develop its military and would not be able to develop.

In the past two years, the relationship between Goryeo and the Russian Empire has suddenly become closer. Not only has Concubine Min become a frequent visitor to Yuriev Palace, but the Goryeo Palace Guards are even led by Russian officers, which has caused extreme dissatisfaction in Datou.

Therefore, Datou sent letters to the Amur Military Region many times, requesting the Amur Military Region to withdraw the Russian officers in Goryeo.

Ye Luoxin refused the Qing people's unreasonable demands on the grounds that George was absent.

The Gaishin coup fully proved that the Qing Empire was unable to provide sufficient protection to the Goryeo royal family.

The Goryeo royal family therefore turned to the Russian Empire for help.

The Siberian Fleet of the Russian Empire has been forced to abandon Jeju. What else do you want?

You really think the Russian Empire is easy to bully, right?

The Russian officers in the Koryo Palace were not sent by the Amur Military Region. They were private actions of Russian officers and had nothing to do with the Amur Military Region.

But if Datou uses coercion to prevent Russians from getting jobs overseas, then the Amur Military District will have something to say.

All Germans could serve in the Qing Empire.

Why can’t Russians go to Korea?

This was an invitation initiated by the King of Goryeo.

"Duke, General Yuan from Goryeo has arrived."

Third cousin Daniela served as George's adjutant. She was not outstanding and made no mistakes. She was mediocre in all aspects.

Alright.

George didn't expect these cousins ​​to be as promising as Andrei and Vasily.

Datou can be regarded as persistent. Although Vladivostok's external communication was cut off, Datou actually traveled all the way overland and across mountains and rivers to reach Vladivostok. His determination is commendable.

In fact, it’s not that far. The distance from the capital of Korea to Vladivostok is less than 800 kilometers, and it’s very fast by horse-drawn sleigh.

"Super Duke Yurievsky, I need your explanation."

Big Tou is so far away that he needs more than just an explanation.

"General, you just need to understand that what I do is never against the Qing Empire."

George really didn't want to go south, he just wanted the people of Vladivostok to eat apples in winter.

"But what you have done has seriously damaged our country's interests."

The big head frowned, the threat from Vladivostok to the Qing Empire was by no means limited to Goryeo.

The last time Datou came to Vladivostok, his impression of Vladivostok was not deep enough, because it was his first time to Vladivostok.

Going to Vladivostok this year, the most profound impression on Vladivostok is that the people of Vladivostok have become more confident. The Qing people described by literati were numb, ignorant, indifferent and ignorant.

The Chinese in Vladivostok are all immigrants from the Qing Dynasty.

So they were also numb, ignorant, cold and ignorant in the Qing Dynasty.

But in Vladivostok, these Qing people burst out with surprising vitality. They were brightly dressed, had smiles on their faces, spoke sonorously and forcefully, and were no longer submissive to others. Even when facing pure Russians, The Chinese in Vladivostok dared to speak loudly, which was unimaginable in the Qing Empire.

When Datou entered the customs, the staff member who received him was a Chinese.

At that time, several Russians tried to jump in line and were scolded by the Chinese staff member.

It’s ridiculous that those Russians insulted the Chinese staff member.

Then the Russians were arrested by the police officers who arrived.

Big Tou didn’t know why, but after witnessing that scene, his hostility towards George suddenly became much less.

“General, do you know how many supplies I purchased from the Qing Empire this year?”

George is ready to throw money at people.

“Does this have something to do with what we are discussing?”

“Of course it does. What I want to tell you is that a powerful Vladivostok is not only not a threat to the Qing Empire, but it is The guardian of peace in the entire Far East!”

Big Head remained silent.

What George just used was not Vladivostok, but Vladivostok.

"Whether you believe it or not, the artillery in Jeju Port was not prepared for the Qing Empire, because the Russian Empire did not need artillery at all to deal with the Qing Empire."

George's words embarrassed Datou.

But Datou had to admit that George's words were correct.

In the Second Opium War, the Russian Empire extorted 600,000 square kilometers of land from the Qing Empire without spending a single soldier.

Goryeo wanted to give Busan to the Siberian Fleet, and the Qing Empire did not object immediately. Instead, the British jumped out to stop the Russians.

Therefore, it is obvious who the artillery in Jeju Port is prepared for.

“You should also know that even in Goryeo, the biggest enemy of the Qing Empire is not Russia, but Japan.”

George’s words left Datou with no way to refute. The Japanese ambitions towards Goryeo were indeed It is becoming more and more obvious.

"If you are willing, we can join forces in Goryeo to deal with Japan and the United Kingdom behind Japan-"

George took the initiative to show his kindness to the big head.

"This-"

Big Head did not reply immediately.

Da Tou has a lot of power in Goryeo, but not enough to have the power to make this decision.

And forget about Japan, the British Empire?

Are you serious!

"If you don't want to, I also hope you don't stop me, because you know, you can't stop me at all."

George gave full play to the traditional skills of the Russian Empire, blackmail!

If I am frightened by your three or two sentences, is that still the Super Duke Yurievsky of the Russian Empire?

Did the Koreans spend money from the empire to buy artillery? Why are you so anxious?

You are so nervous just to buy a cannon. What if the warship comes over?

"Duke, I hope you will remember your words."

Big Head hopes that George will keep his word and will not target the Qing Empire.

George must have kept his word. George was forced to repeat the same words when facing the British.

“If you do not strengthen the defense capabilities of Jeju Port, can the Royal Navy ensure the security of Jeju Port?”

“If you allow the Royal Navy to enter Jeju Port, then the Royal Navy can ensure the security of Jeju Port. Safe.”

The British were more shameless than George imagined.

What else could George do?

You can only treat shameless people as scoundrels.

“This is the decision of the Goryeo royal family and has nothing to do with our Russian Empire.”

“Are you sure?”

Ashton, the British Minister to North Korea, was far more wary of George than most.

Da Tou only knew that George occupied Jeju.

I didn’t know that George still had a lot of money in East India.

George seems to be doing things with a hammer and a stick in no order.

But by linking East India, Jeju, and Vladivostok, Russian ships, at least in East Asia, already have a complete security chain and no longer need to rely on supplies from British ports. This is extremely detrimental to British hegemony in East Asia. of.

"Yes, I'm sure, definitely, and definitely!"

George really wanted to see if Britain would send troops to attack Jeju.

"Super Duke Yurievsky, do you know what you are doing?"

Ashton looked at George with a surprised look as if he was meeting George for the first time.

I’m afraid this person is not a lunatic.

Or you are a fool.

"Mr. Ashton, do you know what you are doing?"

George treated the other person in his own way.

“You are threatening Super Duke Yurievsky in the fiefdom of Super Duke Yurievsky in the Russian Empire! I know that the British Empire is very powerful, but please don’t worry, if the British Empire has I will take you as the first person responsible for any actions that are not beneficial to me. No matter where you hide in the world, believe me, I can find you and your family.”
