Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C1021 The Russian Expeditionary Force made his move

"Signal!" As expected, a signal came … Hurry up and copy it down! "We've finally caught a big fish …" The intelligence officer rubbed his hands in excitement.

In the era when telegraphic technique had just become popular, people did not have automatic transmission devices, so there was a need for people to be on duty in front of the telegraph for a long time.

Under these technical conditions, it was very difficult to listen in on other people's intelligence. For example, if you want to listen in on Russia's messages, you have to be on standby for 24 hours, because you are not sure when Russia will send you a telegram.

Maybe you miss an important piece of information when you're dozing off. Sometimes you even miss the beginning of a telegram by turning around and pouring a glass of water.

Thus, this kind of primitive method of surveillance could not be separated from the direct interference of the spies. As for Hu Lao Er, Sister-in-Law Liu and Elder Zhang, they belonged to the spy category developed by the CIA.

The service room and kitchen were very close to the Russia, and you could see the shadows of people inside through the windows. These Russian were not guarded against them at all, because they knew that these Chinese people did not understand Russian. Furthermore, there were some teachers among them, so they naturally let their guard down.

But who would have thought that Xiao Letian did not even hope for the few of them to understand what the Russia was saying, or to steal the telegraph documents. What the CIA wanted was to kick the green bricks on the ground when there were any movements from the telegraph room.

At the same time, the CIA also received a telegram. In the end, the Russian had to take action after four hours.

Ulangeli paid a high profile visit to the American minister, Hua Ruohan, who was sitting opposite of the embassy.

When Hua Ruohan sent him out of the legation full of questions, then discovered that Ulangeli directly headed north to the British Embassy, he reckoned that he still had something to say.

"Is it really that strange? Isn't this Ulangeli's personality? They fought very well in Xinjiang. Yaqub had already swept through all the northern borders, and now, they are very close to the southern border.

"Something is not right, something is not right!" With the Russia's national character, they would definitely not have lost more than a thousand soldiers in vain.

Hua Ruohan's analysis was not wrong at all, now that Xiao Hexin had received the latest translation, he turned pale with fright after reading the contents. The Expeditionary forces formed by 16 warships, with 8,000 Russian Army elites, was preparing to set off from the Baltic Sea? Ulangeli's current strategy is to numb us? "F * * k, they're really pulling a fast one!"

"The intelligence has been re-encrypted, the choice is codebook, report it to the prime minister immediately … "Damn it, since you want to act with me, then I will act with you. Tomorrow, Gemeinschaft, we will have a private restaurant and I will invite the British, American and French ministers to dinner. I would like to ask them to continue to mediate the mess …"

"Isn't it just a scam? If you don't mind, let's continue playing! Remember to send an invitation to General Ghost Six along the way! "

Xiao Letian who was in Japan was enjoying life with Hu Niu, and right now, he already had a bit of the demeanor of someone in a position of power, the people under him were slowly growing, what he needed to do was to give out orders, encourage their morale, and train their talent.

When Xiao Letian received the latest telegram, he jumped out of the hot spring excitedly, "It's a taboo to raise an army out of anger, Alexander II is not that arrogant? This emperor who personally abolished serfdom is not an idiot. Why is he so impatient? "

Xiao Letian paced back and forth in the Heaven's Tower, and after a while, the person in charge of the CIA, Wang Huaiyuan, ran up and greeted him while panting.

"Why am I asking you to consult Pierre so slowly?"

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, when I was coming over, I suddenly received a secret message from Prussia. Bismark's intelligence officer also noticed the movements of the Russian fleet, they reminded us that it is very possible that the Russian will send a fleet to enter the Atlantic Ocean as a drill soon …"

"Now, Prussia is collecting more detailed information. They will help us find the exact models of these 16 battleships in the future …"

Xiao Letian pondered for a moment, "Why do I want to know? Alexander II is not a mediocre person! "

"The railway, Pierre's analysis is still that great Siberian railway!" Wang Huaiyuan said excitedly: "Alexander's father committed suicide after taking poison from the Crimean War. Although the Russia announced that he died from illness, all the countries in Europe knew that that was only the official explanation …."

"The effects of that war on the Russia was simply too far-reaching. The Alexander II realized that although the Russia is huge, in terms of industry, technology and military systems, there is a huge gap between him and a true European power. That's why he has to carry out reforms …"

Xiao Letian smacked his forehead as many clues in his memory overlapped with the information in front of him. He laughed coldly, "Right, right, Pierre is really a genius, why does he always have to hit the nail on the head? "It really is for that huge railway …"

"The Crimean War and English and French have teamed up to teach Russia a lesson, whether it is the navy or the army, they are all defeated. Alexander is not an irascible person, he did not choose to avenge his father, but chose to live with fear …"

"At home he abolished serfdom and set up the Duma system, and he is even considering advancing the constitutional monarchy! Such a person would definitely not be impulsive due to anger. Now that he has made such a choice, it only means that our actions have already touched his core interests … "

Xiao Letian laughed bitterly: "His failure has let him know that the Russia's strategy cannot be put to the west. With the two countries of the English and French working together to squeeze out their living space, the Russia's army and navy are completely useless. "Therefore, he only has one choice, which is to manage the East …"

"Suppressing the rebellion in the Caucasus, instigating Yaqub's rebellion in Xinjiang and then using the Second Opium War to eat up the Far East Region, all of these are the embodiments of the Russia's strategy of managing the east …"

"But if one wants to turn these new lands into wealth, it is not a simple matter. If one does not connect the vast lands with the railways, the wealth would only accumulate in the areas and would not be able to be transported to Europe. If one is not wrong, the Russia's finances are already in a serious crisis …"

"Alexander II definitely has no money on him! His treasury has dried up, and the East is his only hope! "
