Solovyov in Tsarist Russia 1796.

Chapter 279 046 Half of a British TV series can cure the British
When the news that Crown Prince George supported the establishment of an English Football Association appeared in the Sun, Solovyov returned to London and actually bought a newspaper.

Because the Old Sun was the favorite newspaper of Tory supporters at that time, the above report reminded Solovyov of some things.

The skill pack has not been lost and a lot of content is retained, but as time goes by, some things will be forgotten.

While you haven't forgotten it, you should also come up with more, so that it will appear more valuable. The rest depends on practical application.

He always thinks of Sir Humphrey, and then thinks of the Tories and later the Conservatives, all of whom like to use public opinion to do their own propaganda. The "Yes, Minister", "Yes, Prime Minister" and even the 2013 version that appeared on TV are all masterpieces of Conservative Party propaganda.

But now there is no London School of Economics, so Huck's plot is not so easy to arrange, and it lacks mapping effect.

What the Conservatives want to do is to mock the Labour government of Jim Callaghan's cabinet. So given Prince George's Whig stance, some targeted adaptations can actually be made.

However, Crown Prince George must be reminded that this thing is too destructive and should be kept at home for personal use. He can consider using it after the Whig Party comes to power and forms a cabinet.

It can even be made into a comic. This makes it easier to understand. As for the content, it can also be made into versions other than English and used as a reference to deal with the British.

British cartoons do make people feel disgusted sometimes, but this actually achieves their purpose.

As for the first two articles he wrote, they were the most impressive, "Open Government" and the six countermeasures of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs when President Brenda came. However, the four-stage tactics were content from the prime minister's period, and it was obviously not available at the beginning.

Moreover, time is limited. He can only stay with Crown Prince George until the end of May at most, after which he will have to return to St. Petersburg to report and accept new appointments.

Because the vote to have Napoleon serve as "Emperor of the French People" will take place this month.

The coronation was on December 12, but the First French Empire was about to emerge.

In this regard, Emperor Franz of Austria would certainly not accept the fact that illegal organizations still exist.

Meanwhile, although Alexander no longer had the reason to kidnap and shoot the Duke of Enghien without trial, the duke was now smoking with the young Chief Seattle, but his interference and arbitration in European affairs was still a weak attitude.

No one can persuade someone about this matter.

He also disliked Prince Saltykov's second son, Alexander, and only made him a senior assistant in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Even if this person really knew how to use the four-stage tactics, he couldn't use it.

It's just taken out. I could have done something about it before, but it's too late now.

After reading the first few articles, Crown Prince George also found them interesting.

"Thank you, Baron. I find this story very interesting even if you only give me a few short stories. I can even tell it to Charlotte as a joke, as a political enlightenment book for her."

"Your Highness, isn't this too complicated?"

"Indeed, the words used are indeed very cumbersome and complicated, but it is precisely such exquisite sentences that are the essence. Moreover, it is full of irony."

"But you need to get some people to tighten the reins on the way downhill, instead of letting things go so freely. If they kick on the edge of the cliff, there will be no room for recovery."

"I think so. Will you come to England again in the future?"

"After I return, the Emperor of our country will probably give me a new appointment. This time I won't be a military attaché in London or an aide-de-camp in Petersburg. Maybe I will return to the combat troops. I like it there more."

"Yes, for a soldier, he still has to return to the army, otherwise he won't have a good future. How old are you this year?"

"Twenty-three, Your Highness."

"You're still very young, you still have a long way to go. Have you ever been intimate with a young girl?"

"Yes. And more than one."

"If peace can still be maintained, you should enjoy your life. When the time is right, meet a girl you like and marry her. As an ordinary noble, you should still have this degree of freedom. Don't be like me, born in a royal family but unable to make my own decisions."

"You shouldn't give up on yourself. Overeating is bad for your health, and you shouldn't be too indulgent on yourself."

"Thank you, but delicious food is hard to resist."

There is no way around it. It is still very difficult to convince a person to change his lifestyle habits.

The biggest event that happened this month was the announcement of Napoleon's voting results. Even if the election results did not need to be revised, he became the emperor of the First French Empire with an absolute majority of votes in this vote. However, he still had to revise the voting results.

The purpose is to show the army's absolute support. This crude method actually has a very clever intention.

Then, someone learned it.

It's just that Napoleon wanted to make the results show political purposes, and those who wanted to imitate him in the future all created exaggerated false numbers in order to get elected. As for mathematicians who round off, they also exist.

Count Vorontsov also found Solovyov and said that the "Haste" should prepare to return to St. Petersburg.

Of course, during this period of rest, the crew did not act so hastily. They also took 60 engineers and technical workers recruited in the UK with them, and they were about to embark on the journey back to Russia.

It was almost two years since Solovyov left St. Petersburg in 1802, and he traveled a very long distance by land and sea.

The mission was accomplished successfully, but war in Europe was clearly imminent.

The few articles he completed before he left were all related to foreign policy. Adapting them is a very troublesome thing because the historical background is there. If you copy them all, they will be science fiction.

These articles all provide some in-depth insights into Britain’s European policy.

But because the Elector of Hanover had always been invited to be the King of England, the alliance established based on personal ties made it impossible for Britain to actually shift its attention away from Europe.

Moreover, the presence of Hanover would be of some use to the unification of the German princes and the possible confrontation between France, Russia, Prussia and Austria.

But now Hanover has been taken by Napoleon's army, and there are many other issues involved, so it won't be a one-time thing.

Putting aside the report back to St. Petersburg, he also thought that there was still a lot to be done.

Especially when a large army is on an expedition, the supplies needed will definitely require glass cans and tin cans.

These things still need to be prepared. After all, a year later, Russia will almost be involved in the anti-French alliance.

He can't play a big role now, after all, his status is not high enough.

The first thing to do after returning to St. Petersburg was to go to Peterhof Palace to meet Tsar Alexander himself.

"Your Majesty, Solovyov has been ordered to return. The mission of this trip abroad has been completed."

However, it was impossible to explain the matter of visiting relatives. We could only say that we had found our family members. Anyway, the stepmother was Josephine's cousin, but she lived far away, so she could pretend that she had not noticed.

It was Napoleon who later gave Josephine's relatives in Martinique at least the title of knight.

That is to say, it matters, but not much.

"Misha, what did you think of meeting Napoleon in person in Paris?"

"I think this man is difficult to deal with and full of energy. He can manipulate the French army as he pleases. But his diplomacy still has some problems. He does some things aggressively and always pushes other countries to the side of Britain or us."

"Count Vorontsov wrote to say that you and Crown Prince George's family are getting along well?"

"That's right, your majesty."

"You are really interesting. You always manage to gain the other person's trust by using children as a starting point."

Alexander's words were incoherent, but what was certain was that he was not speaking in riddles. He was just making judgments based on what Solovyov had seen and heard.

"As for General Moreau's affairs, do you know anything about it?"

"When I went to Saint-Domingue, Paris was still peaceful. When I arrived in Portsmouth, I learned from the newspapers of the French extreme royalists in London that General Moreau was implicated and exiled himself."

"what does that mean?"

"Napoleon's control over the French army is stronger than we expected. He should now start cleaning up those in the Rhine Army who do not obey his orders and then take full control of the French army."

"It can be seen that you have made great progress. No matter what job you do during this trip, you will be excellent."

"Your Majesty, I also wrote a lengthy report that has to do with Sweden, France, Austria, and the United Kingdom. It even includes Spanish colonies and some areas in North America that are still inhabited by indigenous peoples."

"You are very smart, and you should have a new appointment when you return. But before that, I am also curious, on the way to Saint-Domingue, you must pass through Martinique and Guadeloupe, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Have you found your stepmother's family?"

"They are now living on a plantation in Le Robert, Martinique. The environment there is not bad, except that there are poisonous vipers on the island."

"You are not afraid of death on the battlefield, how could you be afraid of poisonous snakes?"

"It was also a poisonous snake that ended Cleopatra's life. Perhaps it was another trick of Augustus."

"Well, you should go home and rest for a while. You can even go back to take care of your estate, or even go back to Ryazan. Then, go to Smolensk. The commander of the garrison there, General Apraksin, is in need of a chief of staff."

It seems that Alexander also noticed this problem in the Russian army. The inheritance of staff and followers was interrupted during Paul's military reform, and there has never been a suitable staff group.

Now is the time to establish such a group.

As for going to Ryazan, he had actually never been back, so now he was trying hard to remember what he had experienced there.

Dolokhov, Andrei, Lisa and Pierre have already appeared, and others should also appear. Moreover, Count Rostov himself should still be the leader of the nobles in Ryazan.
After going around in circles for so long, it seems like I still can’t get out of the circle.

However, he also knew that this outward-looking energy and future military achievements would be the springboard for him to reach a higher position.

The glory during Suvorov's expedition has become a thing of the past, and there was also some luck involved.

In the future on the European battlefield, we will face Napoleon. Such an opponent is no different from those French "undercover generals" and is more or less dangerous on the battlefield.

In particular, we lost many battles and the battlefield was quite dangerous.

At the same time, serving under the Military Governor of Smolensk, one also had to adapt to the mind-boggling operations of these Russian generals.

When I get to Smolensk, maybe I can even visit the old duke.

After Alexander, Solovyov had to discuss foreign policy with Foreign Minister Prince Czartoryski, so he could not stay in the palace for too long.

But he was familiar with the route. He had to go downstairs to the Tsar's office, and he should be able to see Maria and Catherine by now. But it was unlikely that he could see Louisa at this time, as she had recently gone to "seclusion" in the Tauride Palace.

He could return home directly from the Summer Palace, and after he came back, he became more cautious.

However, in the English Park, he met Prince and Princess Bagration.

All I can say is that their pairing has not broken up yet, and it’s completely because the “little goblin” is tied down by the child.

"Mishka, you're back?"

"Yes, it is a long way from Vyborg to Russia. How are you, Peter Ivanovitch?"

"Very good. I am as surprised as my wife to see you. But you seem to be stronger than before, which is good. This is the look of a soldier. And children, come and see this Uncle Misha. He is a good friend of Dad and Mom."

In addition to the twin daughters born to them as their firstborn, Bagration also has another girl.

It's just that the "little fairy" is walking in front wearing a cool dress, with her chest puffed out, holding a daughter by the side, while Bagration is holding a younger child in the back. This scene always gives people a feeling that it is quite funny.

"Hello."

"Hello, too. But I just returned to Petersburg and I didn't bring you anything, just some candy. Don't eat too much, or you'll get cavities."

"What is 'cavities'?"

Tamara, the more lively of the twins, loves to ask questions.

"You will get a hole in your tooth, and then you will feel pain."

"That's not good. I don't eat candy."

His twin sister, Elizabeth, was as introverted as her godmother, but she also refused Solovyov's candy.

"You've made them afraid of candy. It's a good thing, otherwise it would be hard for us to discipline them."

Well, she is already a young wife, but she is still like this. However, because her myopia is getting worse, she can see people very blurry. This blurred look is a killer in social situations.
