Struggle in Russia

Chapter 370: A Hit and Match

It was his Moldavian fellow Mikhail Kogalniceanu who came to Kuza. The Duke was born in Iasi, Moldavia, and studied in France and Germany. He was also one of the important leaders of the Moldavian Revolutionary Movement.

A bit different from history, after the revolutionary movement in Moldavia was basically suppressed, he did not flee to Bukovina to escape, but went directly to Wallachia like Kuza.

A little different from Kuza is that Kogalnicianu is better than Kuza. After all, this brother is a social science student, specializing in history and literature, and he is very good at street speeches, so This guy even got involved in the Revolutionary Committee. Although the strength is not strong, it can be regarded as a small boss.

Kogalniceanu also placed his hope of revolution on the side of his foreign father before, but he has been disappointed by the nonsense of Jan Constantine and others in the past few months. It made him very sad.

Heartbroken, he is very pessimistic about the future of the revolution, and believes that it is completely impossible to achieve the independence of Moldavia and Wallachia relying on foreign support.

For a while Kogalniceanu was rather disheartened, or rather hopeless. Anyway, he is very pessimistic about the future but he is unwilling to go abroad to escape, so he just stays there and is depressed.

Until a few days ago, when thousands of people poured into the streets, when the people raised angry cries, demanding to fight the Russian invaders to the end. Kogalniceanu suddenly discovered that the future of the revolution did not seem so pessimistic. Even if the elites in Bucharest were in chaos, the people of Wallachia did not back down!

This gave Kogalniceanu a great shock, and reinvigorated his ashes-like heart. He felt that since the general public, who had always been regarded as foolish by the elites, would go to the country together, it would be difficult to die to defend the country. determination, then what reason do these elites have to be shrinking turtles?

So Kogalniceanu came out again and started to carry out activities widely. He called on more elites to stand with him and the people, and defend the independence and freedom of Wallachia with flesh and blood.

It's just that there are too few elites like Kogalnicianu. More elites think that even if the entire Wallachia is full of soldiers, they are not Russia's opponents, and they think that the revolution will inevitably fail without the intervention of foreign fathers.

Since this is already the established result, why bother to mobilize the people, and why bother to put your head on your trouser belt and go all out?

This made Kogalnicianu quite disappointed, and he despised these so-called elites especially, because he knew very well that the root cause of these people's unwillingness to work hard was not only fear of death, but also the loss of their own interests.

Think about it, if these guys are desperate,

Then it will inevitably cause a lot of casualties to the Russians. With the bear temper of the polar bear, they will definitely take revenge. After they come back, they must liquidate the families of these elites.

This is still one aspect, and more importantly, these so-called elites are actually old-style landlords or, to put it bluntly, serf owners. They controlled a large amount of land and enslaved tens of thousands of people. You let these guys mobilize the people enslaved by them extensively. Do you think they don’t worry that the mobilized people will not only beat the Russians but even take them to clean up after they take up arms!

Especially the latter, this is what the elite landlord class is most worried about. After all, Russia has only changed a more brutal master, and their social status will not be greatly affected.

But the mud legs took up arms and rebelled, that would be subversive, it would kill their roots, okay?

Naturally, this group of landlord elites will definitely not do it, so go to hell with mobilizing the masses. Whoever dares to mention this is an enemy more ferocious than Russia, and you must be killed before you deal with the Russians.

Unfortunately, neither Kogalniceanu nor Kuza realized this. They only realize that the people's hearts are available, and they don't realize class antagonism. It is simply impossible to use simple patriotic sentiments to persuade the exploiting landlords to give up everything and stand with them!

Of course, they didn't realize this at this time. So when Kogalniceanu heard that there was a fellow Moldavian who held the same political views as him, he immediately became interested and decided to have a good talk with Kuza.

"Did you participate in the Moldavian uprising before?" When Kogalnicianu heard that Kuza had voted in Moldavia, he liked him even more, and said kindly: "I was I also participated in the uprising, but it’s not like you can lead the soldiers to fight the Russian lackeys head-on, you can only do a little propaganda work..."

Kogalniceanu's introduction undoubtedly made Kuza feel very cordial. First of all, this is a Moldavian fellow. In the "foreign land" Bucharest, I really feel like meeting relatives. Secondly, Kogalniceanu participated in the uprising in Moldavia. He was a staunch anti-Russian faction, so he was naturally a good comrade.

Comrade Jiajia, what else is there to say, serve sauerkraut...serve vodka!

After drinking for three rounds, both of them started talking. By coincidence, they began to complain about the elites in Bucharest, and suddenly they felt that they were confidantes!

"These guys are so funny...I told Constantinescu and Ionescu to mobilize the masses. Guess what these two idiots said? They are still worried about Jan Constantine and Qatar Jiu The persecution...the country is going to perish, and they are still worried about such a stupid thing! They just don't know what to say!"

Kogalniceanu also couldn't laugh or cry. He just heard that Kuza sympathized with the people and asked to stand with the people, but he really didn't expect that Kuza had already done the persuasion work of the top National Party. It seems that they are more determined than him, which really makes him admire!

"Indeed!" Kogalniceanu said sincerely, "If we don't arm and mobilize the masses, then the Provisional Republic of Wallachia must be a dead end! It's a pity that the group of idiots in the Revolutionary Committee are simply stubborn. I can't even listen to it, I told them many times that changes must be made, but they would rather die!"

"You think so too!" Kuza was surprised. "You also agree that all people should fight against the Russians?"

Kogalnicianu replied firmly: "Of course we must fight! Even if we can't beat them, we can't let them succeed easily. We have to tell them that Wallachia is not delicious fat, but a piece that can destroy them." Big teeth turned into rocks!"
