Chapter 669： meet Herzen

That night, an encrypted telegram was sent from a radio station in the Sevastopol fortress and arrived at the underground telegraph room of the National Intelligence Service at 12:00 a.m. after a "long journey" of more than two hours.

The intelligence personnel who received the telegram, while listening to the sound signal from the station, used a pen to convert the sound signal into letters and record it on slightly yellowed paper.

After a while, the ticking of the radio stopped, and the intelligence officer handed the transcribed telegram into the hands of Marcel Yarug.

After receiving the telegram, Marcel Yeruger locked the door after looking at the dense characters on the telegram.

Then he came to the desk, took out a book that was almost identical to Jerome Bonaparte's book, and read page by page according to the characters on the telegram.

After a while, Marcel Yaruger translated the content of the telegram a second time and wrote it on the back of the telegram.

Jerome Bonaparte asked Marcel Yaruger in encrypted telegrams whether the branch of the National Intelligence Service in Russia was linked to a part of the opposition to the Russian Empire.

If the Russian Intelligence Service is really in touch with them, then ask Marcel Yarug to take his place and ask those guys if they are willing to overthrow the Tsar's rule.

If they are really willing to overthrow the Tsar's rule, then Marcel Yeruger can tell them that the French Empire is willing to give them some help in overthrowing the Tsar.

However, at the end of the letter, Jerome Bonaparte repeatedly emphasized to Marcel Yeruger that if the nobles really intended to rebel, the help that the National Intelligence Service could give was limited to providing weapons.

Even if it is really necessary to send people to assist them in their conspiracy and subversion, Marcel Yeruger must find some people who seem to have nothing to do with the French National Intelligence Service to carry out the task.

After all, although Britain and France attacked the Russian Empire with heavy blows, in the eyes of other monarchies, it is nothing more than an infighting between monarchies and will not hurt the fundamentals of the monarchy.

The National Intelligence Service's search for rebel forces to conspire to subvert Russia is digging into the roots of the Russian Empire.

Once the actions of the National Intelligence Service are discovered, they are likely to suffer hostility from monarchical forces across Europe.

Jérôme Bonaparte's precarious reputation could also suffer.

A look of embarrassment appeared on Marcel Yeruger's face after reading the telegram. The task that the emperor gave him was really difficult.

If one is not careful, their entire National Intelligence Service will have to be reorganized, and he, the Director of the National Intelligence Service, will be forced to step down.

After all, the crime of subverting the monarchy of a country is too great a crime, so big that Marcel Yarug himself can't bear it.

At that time, the emperor must also be implicated by the National Intelligence Service.

However, since the emperor has asked him to do this, he must have considered the consequences.

In this case, Marcel Yaruger thought that he had no chance of rejecting it.

So, Marcel Yaruger opened the kerosene lamp shade, folded the telegram in his hand and placed it on the flame core of the kerosene lamp.

After the telegram was lit, Marcel Yaruger put the burning telegram in the ashtray on the table, until he watched the telegram completely burn out, leaving only a pile of black dust.

Then Marcel Yeruger stood up and left the office.

After a while, the figure of Marcel Yaluger appeared at the door of the room marked with the sign of the Anti-Russian Intelligence Agency (Department). He gently pushed open the door of the Anti-Russian Intelligence Agency.

At this time, the lights in the Russian Intelligence Bureau were still bright, and the clerks in the Intelligence Bureau kept sorting out the documents under the command of the director Andres de Abel.

The appearance of Marcel Yaleger made everyone in the Intelligence Bureau turn their attention to him. Andres also put down his work and looked at Marcel Yaruger who was standing at the door.

"Andres, come out with me!" Marcel Yeruger pointed at Andres and said.

Andres had no choice but to put down his work and leave with Marcel Yeruger.

However, before leaving the intelligence bureau, Andres also instructed the subordinates in the intelligence bureau to continue their work, not to slow down the progress because of his departure.

Marcel Yaruger and Andres returned to Marcel Yaruger's office together.

"Sit down!" Marcel Yeruger, who was sitting on the sofa, stretched out his hand and invited Andres to sit down.

Andres sat upright next to Marcel Yeruger, with an expression of concentration on his face.

Looking at the meticulous subordinates in front of him, Marcel Yeruger nodded in satisfaction.

After all, intelligence work is different from other work. It should not be sloppy at any time, and a little carelessness can lead to serious consequences.

Later, Marcel Yaluger asked Andres whether their intelligence bureau had any connection with the forces opposed to the Russian Empire!

"Yes!" Andres responded cherishly.

"Did they come to the door on their own initiative or did you contact them!" Marcel Yeruger asked.

"They took the initiative to contact us!" Andres continued to answer.

"What is their power in Russia?" Marcel Yaruger asked again.

Andres told Marcel Yaluger that because the organization's actions were based on single-line contacts, and their scope of activities was only in Russia, the Foreign Intelligence Service did not have much useful information.

Andres' answer made Marcel Yeruger a little frustrated. Immediately, he asked Andres whether the Russian Intelligence Agency he led kept in constant contact with them.

Andres nodded and told Marcel Yaruger that the Russian Intelligence Service not only maintained contact with Russia, but also in Paris. The organization's contact in Paris was a man named Herzen. .

"Herzen? That writer?" Marcel Yeruger asked again.

"Yes!" Andres nodded, and then said to Marcel Yaruger: "Herzen is also a member of that organization, and he told me that the purpose of his organization is to overthrow Russia's rule. Create a socialist Russia with a republic or constitutional monarchy."

"Constitutional monarchy? Socialist Russia?" A look of surprise appeared on Marcel Yarug's face. He couldn't imagine that those guys in Russia would be so sewn together.

Then, Marcel Yaruger couldn't help but complain: "Don't they know that in a socialist country, there is no place for them and the monarch?"

Andres shrugged his shoulders and responded, "Your Excellency, the Slavic nation is the easiest nation to go from one extreme to the other.

When they thought that tsarism could not make the Russian Empire strong, they opted for radical anarchism and a republic.

If they can fulfill the dream in their hearts, then their death is a worthwhile thing. "

Marcel Yeruger shook his head after hearing this, he really had a hard time understanding this kind of behavior.

Even the most radical republicanism in France today believes that the existence of an empire is good for all.

To deny everything in an immature situation like the revolutionaries of the Russian Empire is doomed to failure.

Then Marcel Yeruger asked Andres if he could help him contact Herzen. He wanted to know the forces behind Herzen.

"Minister, please forgive me! Is there any big move from Crimea!" Andres asked Marcel Yalege.

Marcel Yarug nodded, and then quietly told him the contents of the telegram.

"Please rest assured, I will bring Herzen here! However, I don't think the place where you meet Herzen should be here!" Andres replied to Marcel Yarug.

"The meeting time is set in the Bois de Boulogne, and tomorrow afternoon! It should be possible!" Marcel Yeruger responded to Andres.

"Of course!" Andres replied with a nod.

...

The next afternoon, Marcel Yeruger came to an inconspicuous log cabin in the Boulogne Forest early in a casual suit, and put on a mask on purpose.

After a while, there was a knock on the door outside the hut, and Marcel Yeruger slightly changed his usual tone of voice and said to the hut, "Please come in!"

Andres and Herzen appeared in the wooden houseMarcel Yeruger stretched out his hand to invite Herzen: "Please sit down! Mr. Herzen!"

After Herzen was seated, Marcel Yeruger threatened Herzen, saying that he was very worried that a person as prestigious as Herzen who had connections with some extremist forces would cause unexpected surprises to France. Destruction, so Herzen was called over.

"Minister Marcel, you don't have to use these words to intimidate me! I think the two of us can talk openly and openly!" Herzen said frankly to Marcel Yeruger: "I know you I believe that you should also know our purpose, I think we both have the same goal and can cooperate on this basis!"

"Cooperation?" Marcel Yeruger smiled with interest, "It depends on whether your organization has such value! If your organization is all a group of people like you who only know Empty talker, then we don't need to continue talking between us!"

"What kind of people do you want our organization to be?" Herzen retorted.

"At the very least, there must be a few big nobles! With the power of the gangsters, there is absolutely no future. Not to mention, it is a nation like Russia that is still enslaved by the nobles! At least we French people know how to resist, And your serfs don't even have the courage to resist the nobles! Your people will only kneel under the whips of the nobles and worship them! The more brutal the nobles are in Russia, the more they can be supported by the serfs!" Massey Er. Yeruger sneered unceremoniously.
