Struggle in Russia

Chapter 66 Bretianu (Part 2)

Jan Constantine and his elder brother Dimitri have slightly different thoughts, not that he is more enlightened. There are no enlightened people in the Bretianu family. Every member of this family is an extreme conservative , the most conservative, the most shrewd, and the best at safeguarding their own interests.

Even if the children of an established family like them are talking about democracy and freedom, the power and conservatism are engraved in their blood. The only difference is the way of safeguarding their own interests and conservative power.

Compared with the directness of his brother Dimitri, Jan Constantine's conservativeness is more hidden. He hides his true attributes very well. On the surface, he is likely to be an enthusiastic and progressive young man, full of energy and dedicated to The country is willing to contribute to the people. But in fact, that's not the case at all. He is just very good at using means and more sophisticated in calculations.

For example, now, Dimitri is clearly showing his attitude. He is not afraid to tell the world that he is an out-and-out conservative. He wants to safeguard his vested interests and firmly opposes any democracy and reform.

And Jan Constantine is actually opposed to democracy and reform, but this does not prevent him from breaking into the democratic reformers and winning their welcome, but in fact he is digging the roots of the democratic reformers, and will give democracy to the democratic reformers whenever he has the opportunity. A fatal blow to the reformists.

It can be said that Jan Constantine is a dangerous poisonous snake, always injecting deadly poison into the enemy without knowing it, killing people invisible.

Jan Constantine pondered for a long time before slowly saying: "Nationalists' request to support the anti-Russian independence movement in Moldavia cannot be said to be crazy. Judging from the current situation, we have already greatly offended Russia in any case. People, it is unrealistic to expect them to show mercy and let us go at this time."

"How could the Russians be willing to give up their interests in Wallachia and the Balkans? Even if we honestly no longer have any actions to stimulate them, they will only regard us as a thorn in the flesh, whether they support Moldavia or not." Same."

"On the contrary, it is more beneficial to support Moldavia and get rid of Russia's control like us. With them against Russia, our strength is stronger, and they stand in the front to help us hold the Russians, at least it can do more for us Buy some time!"

Jan Constantine can be regarded as Chiguoguo's ruthlessness. His starting point for supporting Moldavia is not because everyone is a compatriot, not to liberate compatriots of the same origin and origin, but just to find a meat shield for himself Or for the dead ghost, hoping to use Moldavia to block the knife, sacrificing Moldavia to buy time for himself.

It can be imagined that he didn't care about the life and death of Moldavia at all, and he never thought about whether Moldavia's actions would completely anger the brutal Russia and cause polar bears to kill in the local area.

He neither cared nor cared about these things,

In his heart, a mere human life is not worth mentioning. Even if the Moldavians are dead, it doesn't matter as long as it doesn't hinder his interests. Its cruelty and cold blood can be seen.

Dimitri thought for a while and replied: "There is some truth in saying this. It would be good to let the fools of Moldavia buy us time, um! Let's do this, and I will convince everyone. The liberals and What about the reformers?"

Jan Constantine sneered and said, "You know, I have no interest in their stuff. We don't need any democracy or reform. The current system is perfect and doesn't need to be changed at all!"

After saying this, Dimitri nodded again and again, showing a gratified expression. It could be seen that he was very satisfied with his brother's statement, but what he didn't expect was that Jan Constantine changed the subject soon:

"However, there are a lot of idiots who like these things now. They like this tune, and hope that the interim government of the Republic will make such a gesture or guarantee, thinking that with these things in the future, they will be able to eat well, drink spicy food, be happy and so on."

Jan Constantine made a gesture to stop Dimitri from speaking, and continued: "There are really many naive idiots of this type, and their voices are also very strong, and they were also the main force that we overthrew Bibescu before. We definitely couldn't have done it without them stupidly playing up front and blocking holes."

"So, once they realize that we don't plan to implement democracy and don't plan to give them land, then they will be discouraged immediately, and they will most likely abandon their previous innocence and impulsiveness, and stop foolishly charging and desperately fighting. It will greatly weaken our strength! It is not appropriate to do this when the Russians are about to counterattack!"

Dimitri became anxious immediately, and said with red eyes: "That can't really satisfy them! Then what should we do? Are we willing to take risks just to give away our wealth? Jan, you are crazy!! !"

Jan Constantine replied calmly: "I'm not crazy! I don't mean to give away my wealth, I'm just stating the true thoughts of those naive idiots! They are easy to be agitated, but they are also easy Depressed, they cannot be allowed to leave us until we are completely safe!"

"But……"

Jan Constantine interrupted him without hesitation, and laughed, "Don't be nervous, my brother, as I said just now, I have no intention of really fulfilling those guys' wishes!"

Confused, Dimitri asked inexplicably, "Then what do you mean?"

Jan Constantine's sarcasm became more and more obvious, he laughed and said: "I mean temporarily stabilize those guys, draw a big pie, give them a beautiful blueprint, and write a check that will never be cashed Just let them be happy!"

Dimitri reacted immediately, and he smiled in surprise: "Uh, you mean to lie to them?"

"Yes!" Jan Constantine sneered, "They like democracy, so let's hold a fake constitutional convention, promise that there will be democracy and freedom, but at the same time tell them that democracy also needs process and time, no It may be realized immediately, and there must be time for preparation, especially in the face of the current enemy, should we deal with the Russians first, and then implement democracy after defeating the Russian invasion!"

"The same goes for reform, of course we want reform, of course we want every citizen of Wallachia to own land, but this is not now, this is not the right time for reform, all this will have to wait until the Russian enemy is defeated, Until our republic is capable and safe!"

Speaking of this, Jan Constantine and Dimitri laughed at the same time, Dimitri laughed and said: "Obviously, the time is never ripe, and it really beat the Russians, the support of those idiots It's irrelevant, and then they can't let their willful actions!"

Jan Constantine nodded and agreed naturally: "Of course, but now you have to coax them, so don't stimulate their sensitive nerves during this time."

Dimitri happily agreed, and then said: "But it's not enough to have those fools go to die, we have to win more support, by the way, how are you talking with the French?"

Jan Constantine replied: "We are talking, the French Consul General invited us to visit his house tomorrow, we have to seize the opportunity!"
