Chapter 260: Tired, destroy it
The password used by Yankov is the universal password of the Russian Empire.
If the password is leaked, it means that communications throughout the Russian Empire are no longer secure.
Reminiscent of the British response to the Juwen Island incident, which accurately stepped on the edge of the Russian Empire's psychological red line every time, George once again deeply realized the importance of information security.
It is not George's character to just take a beating without fighting back.
In 1880, a conflict broke out between the British Cape Colony in South Africa and the Transvaal, known in history as the First Boer War.
The Boer War made the whole world know how broken the British Army was.
On December 10, 1880, the British army was attacked by the Boer militia. During the battle, 77 British troops were killed and 157 injured, while only 2 of the Boer militia were killed and 4 injured.
In January 1881, Colley led the British reinforcements and was blocked by Joubert in the Transvaal. The British army suffered 93 casualties, 133 wounded, and 54 prisoners. Colley himself was also captured. Killed.
Only one Boer was killed and 5 wounded.
Compared with the prestigious Royal Navy, the British Army is a joke.
So the Dutch worshiped the wrong temple. They hired Gurkhas. Going to South Africa to hire Boers might create more trouble for Yankov.
Before George traveled through time, he read an online novel about a street writer who was reborn in South Africa.
Although the First Boer War did not catch up, the Second Boer War has not happened yet.
George asked Mikhail to send people to South Africa to contact the Boers to see if they could bring some orders to the Vladivostok Arsenal.
After Milyutin learned about it, he reminded George not to go too far.
“The British can attack Aceh, why can’t I attack South Africa?”
George knew what Milyutin was worried about and knew what he was doing.
The British were sure that the Russian Empire was in trouble and was incapable of causing trouble to Britain, so they acted unscrupulously.
George did not directly send troops to assist the Boers. No one can make irresponsible remarks on normal trade. During the Tenth Russo-Turkish War, the British sold weapons and warships to the Ottomans, and the Russian Empire also protested Now, has London stopped?
Not really.
So if George sells weapons to the Boers, Britain can also protest, but George will not stop either.
"George, I know you don't like the British, I don't like them either, Vienna doesn't like them, and Berlin doesn't like them either, but why don't Vienna and Berlin do anything?"
m Ryukyong doesn’t want George to be the first.
“Because the Germans and Viennese did not know the correct way to fight the British Empire.”
George really didn't mean to look down on anyone, everyone here was happy.
“You know?”
Milyugin realized something was wrong as soon as he spoke.
"Jeju, Aceh——"
George only said two place names, which made Milyujing blush.
The Siberian fleet sought Jeju, but was blocked directly by the British, which caused the Russian Empire to lose face in the world. The little confidence that was finally accumulated in the 10th Russo-Turkish War was almost completely lost.
When the war broke out between East India and Aceh, almost everyone was not optimistic about Aceh. They believed that Aceh, isolated and helpless, would be completely strangled by East India, which had a superior navy.
Now the immigrants from the Qing Empire are happily eating hot pot in Jeju.
Aceh not only won the war, but also forced the East Indian colonial government to cede territory and pay compensation. The Russian Empire's dream of going south was turned into reality by George in this way that was not favored by everyone.
The Dutch still haven’t figured out why they lost the war.
The British wanted to drive the Russians in Jeju back to Russia, but they were opposed by the Goryeo government.
This is our internal affairs of Goryeo. The sovereign state has not said a word. You have no right to interfere.
"We have nothing to lose whether the Boers succeed or fail; if I don't do business with the Boers, will London reward me?"
George revealed the secret.
Even if the Russian Empire does nothing, Britain will target Russia everywhere.
If that's the case, why are you still hesitating? You've already called me a barbarian, so I'll show you how barbaric you are.
“Don’t go back to St. Petersburg before the Trans-Siberian Railway is opened to traffic——”
Milyutin did not give the British a chance.
The Ninth Russo-Turkish War drove the Tsar to death.
As soon as the Russian Empire won the Tenth Russo-Turkish War, Ya Er was assassinated.
Win or lose, the Tsar must die.
If the British cannot defeat George technically, then George will die sooner or later.
The difference is no wonder whether George committed suicide or was assassinated.
Or it is possible to die from an accident such as a train derailment -
Oh, the train George was riding on is unlikely to derail.
The "Dolgorukov" may still sink.
Either hit a rock or hit a mine.
In short, he deserves it.
"Great, do you think I would like to spend three months a year floating on the sea."
George couldn't ask for more. Vorontsov's movements in Amur were not subject to any restrictions. He could go wherever he wanted and communicate with whomever he wanted.
Vorontsov’s contact with St. Petersburg was not restricted. Whether it was the telegraph room in Vladivostok or the telegraph room in Khabarovsk, Vorontsov could use it at will. He even used his own telegraph operator to generate electricity. It’s no problem to report.
What George was worried about still happened.
In early May, a St. Petersburg newspaper published a report about Amur.
In the report, the editor called Vladivostok’s economic development a miracle. It reports on the changes that have taken place in Vladivostok in recent years, and spends a considerable amount of space on the new city of Yuriev.
Many Amur people don't even know where Yuriev is.
The editor pointed out Yuriev's location in detail.
George took the initiative to send a telegram to Nicholas, hoping that Nicholas would pay more attention to information security.
George tried every means to seal the secrets about Yuriev and not give the enemy a chance to penetrate.
The newspaper office in St. Petersburg is afraid that others will not know the existence of Yuriev. This is simply collaboration with the enemy.
"George, don't you want more people to know about Amur?"
Vorontsov also has his reasons.
The Russian Empire has always wanted to develop Siberia, but progress has been slow and no one is willing to go to Siberia.
The St. Petersburg newspaper described Amur as a paradise on earth in exaggerated terms, which will attract some Russians' interest in Amur.
“I hope people know how effective Amul’s health care products are, but I don’t want people to know that Amul’s health care products are made of tree bark and grass roots. These are two different things!”
< br>
George was very angry. These so-called imperial elites had no awareness of this at all.
“Damn it, you’re too dark!”
Vorontsov is definitely a tease!
Can’t blame Vorontsov.
Vorontsov has been here, always buying some souvenirs or something to take back to St. Petersburg as gifts.
Rich people are most afraid of a short life. The health products in Vladivostok are sought after by many people. Vorontsov also bought a lot of them and sent them back to St. Petersburg.
How can things that prolong life be cheap? The price of health products in Vladivostok is much more expensive than cosmetics. Vorontsov, as an earl, feels sick.
So after learning that the health products in Vladivostok were made from tree bark and grass roots, Vorontsov directly broke through.
“I know the purpose of your coming, and I also know what some people in St. Petersburg are worried about, so I don’t restrict your movements and leave it open for you to see as you like, but you can’t mess around with what you see. He said, you can only report it to Gatchina Palace, and you have to remind Gatchina Palace to block the news. The empire has been penetrated by the enemy like a sieve, so be careful!"
George! I know there are some unfavorable rumors about Amur in St. Petersburg.
This is normal. There are so many profitable companies under George's control, and the money earned is like picking up money. I don't know how many people in St. Petersburg are envious and jealous of George.
Before the Tsar granted Amur to George, Amur was a remote country with more wolves than people.
Now some people have discovered that Amur is a geomantic treasure.
So when Nicholas said that he wanted to change George's fiefdom to Crimea, was it really just a matter of emotion?
Some things should not be thought about deeply.
If you think about it more deeply, the enemy is in St. Petersburg.
"George, you are exaggerating, the Empire is not as bad as you think."
Vorontsov does not think that the Empire has been penetrated into a sieve.
"Even His Majesty's travel time and route will be leaked. Do you think I am exaggerating?"
George intensified his attack.
Vorontsov was responsible for the travel planning of the Asia 3 special train.
Vorontsov certainly did not leak this, but Vorontsov is definitely responsible.
“Do you mean I did it?”
Vorontsov became angry.
“Do you dare to say that you have no responsibility at all in this matter?”
George's words silenced Vorontsov.
"Trust is destroyed by suspicion, and jealousy is caused by incompetence. I can build Amur into a paradise on earth, or I can turn Amur into a hell!"
Nicholas are no longer the same Nikolai as before. Gu La, George will also evolve.
"George, you are in danger now, very dangerous-"
Vorontsov muttered to himself, he had never imagined this possibility.
The key is that Amur is developing too fast. St. Petersburg has not yet reacted. Amur already has airplanes and cars. Grass roots that were originally ignored suddenly turned into ginseng. Gold can be grown in the ground. Ugly ducklings turned into swans.
Seeing that George was making so much money that he couldn't spend all the money himself and started to distribute it to the poor. Why not give it to me?
Why give it to you!
“I have never been safe from some ulterior minds in St. Petersburg.”
From monopolizing champagne to taking back the railways, and now the Trans-Siberian Railway, George has offended Many people.
If George put all his energy into pleasing the Tsar, then George would have no energy left to do anything.
The relationship between Amur and St. Petersburg depends on St. Petersburg’s attitude towards Amur.
Although George did not distribute the money to those salivating guys, he still paid not a penny less in taxes to the empire.
If this does not satisfy the Tsar, then simply destroy it.
