Chapter 439： to the Bosphorus

"Then Ambassador Canning, let's get started now!"

Although Wallewski's heart was excited to promote the complete cooperation between Britain and France, he still put on a calm face, and said to Canning in a leisurely manner.

"Yeah!" Ambassador Canning nodded to Wallevsky, then got up and left the French embassy.

"Klein, please help me send Ambassador Canning a ride!" Seeing that Canning was about to leave the French embassy, ​​Wallevsky immediately said to Klein.

"Yes!" Klein hurriedly responded, and then personally sent Canning out of the embassy.

Just as Canning was about to get into the carriage, he suddenly stopped and turned to glance at Klein.

Klein, who was stared at by Canning's sudden gaze, was stunned for a moment, and then smiled kindly at Canning.

"You're very good!" Canning nodded, and after saying something that didn't fit the preamble, he left the French embassy in a carriage.

Klein returned to the French embassy again. When he entered the embassy lobby again, Wallewski, who was sitting on the sofa in the lobby, was nowhere to be seen.

Upon seeing this, Klein immediately went to the telegraph office on the second floor of the embassy, ​​where Klein saw Valevsky again.

At this time, Wallevsky was standing behind the two transmitters, saying word for word the message sent to Paris to the transmitter.

The transmitter held the pen and lowered his head, dutifully recording every word that Wallevsky said on the notepad.

After Wallevsky had finished speaking, the narrator would write down the words and send them to Paris.

At this point, only the sound of telegrams remained in the room.

In this extremely quiet environment, Klein didn't dare to breathe, and quietly waited for the telegram to end.

When the telegraph operator hit the last "tick" note, he released his hand from the dot key and turned to nod to Wallewski.

Wallevsky naturally understood what Klein meant. He also nodded to the telegraph operator and said, "It's hard work."

Later, Valewski also turned to look at Klein and said, "Canning is gone?"

"Let's go!" Klein immediately replied to Wallewski.

"Then did he leave anything?" Wallevsky asked Klein again.

"That's not true!" Klein first shook his head, and then added: "However, he said something very inexplicable!"

"Oh? What!" said Wallewski.

"He told me, I'm fine!" Klein scratched his head and said to Valewski.

"That guy Canning seems to have found something!" Wallevsky whispered.

"Ah?!" Klein showed a surprised expression on his face, and then said with a slightly nervous voice, "Then he..."

"What are you thinking?" Wallevsky shook his head and patted Klein's shoulder in relief: "Don't worry! I guess he just saw some abnormalities, and there is no conclusive evidence. You also Don't be nervous! Besides, there is the French Empire behind us, as well as His Majesty the Emperor, what are you afraid of!"

Hearing Wallewski's explanation, Klein realized that he was no longer the original self without background, and he didn't need to be as afraid of this and that as he was backed by the French Empire.

"Then will our infiltration into Syria continue?" Klein asked Wallewski again.

"Why not?" Wallevsky responded to Klein: "We not only have to infiltrate the Syrian region, but also the Baghdad region, and let their Pasha oppose the Ottoman Empire there!"

"Your Excellency, what is the purpose of our doing this? Isn't the French Empire an ally with the Ottoman Empire?" Klein asked Walleves suspiciously.

"Child, there is only mutual use between countries, and there is no eternal allies!" Valewski, like the godfather of the underworld, said bitterly to Klein: "The reason why we are willing to unite with the Kingdom of Great Britain. , because neither of our countries wants to see the Russian Empire occupying the Near East, so the Ottoman Empire has become the object of our courtship. When the threat of Russia is over, then the Ottoman Empire will become an object to be slaughtered by European powers. ...and all of this must be done in the interest of the country's example."

"I understand!" Klein nodded to Wallewski in response, and then added: "However, I don't understand why the Empire would attack Baghdad! As far as I know, there is nothing but sand there. !"

"I don't know about that!" Wallevsky shook his head and said to Klein, "However, this order was issued by the Emperor himself, so we just need to resolutely implement it!"

Before the internal combustion engine was born, no one would pay attention to the black "gold mines" buried under the land of the Middle East.

And Jerome Bonaparte took a fancy to this, and then issued an order to Wallevsky and others to control this land at all costs.

It was precisely because of Klein's amazing language talent and smart mind that Wallewski made an exception to make him the third-level secretary of the embassy, ​​specializing in work in Syria and Iraq.

Klein lived up to expectations and went to the Baghdad area, using the local Pasha to reach an arms deal with the "rebels".

However, Klein's action seemed to be noticed by Canning.

Fortunately, with Wallewski's endorsement, Klein was a little relieved.

On the other hand, Canning, who returned to his own embassy in a carriage from the French embassy, ​​immediately sent a message to the British government about the destruction of the Ottoman navy.

After the telegram was sent, Canning did not stop at his embassy too much and went to the port of Constantinople instead.

Afterwards, after taking a starry night in the port of Constantinople, I finally arrived at the Mediterranean Fleet Command in Malta that night.

"Lieutenant Admiral Dundas! I now order your team to set off for the Bosphorus Strait!" Canning, who had just stepped into the headquarters with his front foot, hurriedly gave the order to James Dundas, Commander of the Mediterranean Fleet.

"Your Excellency Ambassador, what happened?" James Dundas asked Canning suspiciously.

"That's it!" Canning informed James Dundas of the news of the annihilation of the Ottoman Empire.

James Dundas showed an expression of disbelief, and asked Canning again: "Your Excellency Canning, is there a mistake in the intelligence! As far as I know, the Ottoman Empire's fleet is far behind the Russian Empire's fleet in strength. It's not obvious. Even if the Ottoman Empire's navy is defeated, there is absolutely no reason for the entire army to be wiped out. I think, is this because the Ottoman Empire deliberately exaggerates its own crisis in exchange for our help!"

"No! No!" Canning shook his head and responded to James Dundas: "What told me about this was the naval advisor sent by the Kingdom of Britain to the Ottoman Empire! He saw with his own eyes that the Ottoman fleet was destroyed by Russia. The empire is all wiped out! The Ottoman Empire now has only a few broken ships, and it is not an opponent of the Russian Empire at all!"

"Since he is our naval advisor, did he tell you, His Excellency the Ambassador, what method the Russian Imperial Navy used to defeat the Ottoman Empire fleet?" James Dundas asked Canning again.

Canning relayed Slade's words to Lieutenant General James Dundas.

"So that's how it is!" Lieutenant General James Dundas breathed a sigh of relief, then nodded in agreement: "If it's a bomb, then everything will be explained! The Russian Empire can only take advantage of the unprepared situation. The sneak attack succeeded! In the final analysis, the Ottoman Empire itself was negligent in preventing the problem. If it was our fleet, then this situation would never have happened!”

"Lieutenant General Dundas! Now is not the time to discuss who is responsible, we have to give those people some confidence... I know those people in the High Gate government too well, once the news comes out now! Those guys will definitely think about the same The Russian Empire negotiates peace!" Canning said to James Dundas.

"Your Excellency Ambassador, I don't understand, and I don't want to understand the political issues!" James Dundas said to Canning with a stern face: "I just need to understand, what are we going to do! It is to help the Ottoman Empire annihilate the Russian Empire. The fleet, or is it just a matter of simply protecting the security of the Ottoman Empire's own territory!"

"After all, the Kingdom of Great Britain has not declared war on the Russian Empire, so we cannot have a conflict with the Russian Empire, so the main purpose of this mission is to protect the territory of the Ottoman Empire!"

"Then do we still have to convene our fleet in the Greek waters!" James Dundas asked Canning again. UU reading www. uukanshu.com

Since the attempted small-scale conflict between Britain and France, a small part of the navy in the British Mediterranean Fleet, led by Adjutant Edmund Leon, stayed in the Greek waters.

Although this small part of the Mediterranean fleet is nominally resting in Greece, it is actually to monitor the French fleet in the Mediterranean.

"Of course!" Ambassador Canning responded to James Dundas: "This time we must unite with France to maintain the maritime security of the Ottoman Empire!"

"Yes!" James Dundas immediately responded to Canning.

Subsequently, James Dundas sent a steamboat to the Kingdom of Greece to inform the Mediterranean Fleet of the news.

When the dispatched messengers arrived, they found that the British Kingdom fleet was already ready to go.

After inquiries, I found out that it turned out that the French ambassador, Vallewski, arrived here in advance and informed the local British fleet members of the news of the union.

Then, he led the French fleet to tell the Bosphorus in advance.
