The Russian imperial capital in November was quite cold, but Rozov's heart was colder than the weather. When he received news from the Far East, he finally realized that he had been fooled by Richelieu, and he was very serious.

The Ming Empire's reaction speed exceeded his imagination, and the Ming Empire's reaction was also beyond his imagination. It just sneaked into a border guard. The Ming Empire actually organized millions of troops to counterattack!

Moreover, the assembly speed was so fast that it was terrifying that it was completed in less than a month; the advancement speed was so fast that it was scary that it actually advanced more than 4,000 miles in less than three months!

Do you want to be so fierce? At this speed, in the four or five months after the ice and snow melt next year, will the Ming Empire come to the imperial capital?

He is in a difficult situation now. At the beginning, he advocated a war with the Ming Empire. Now Siberia has been half destroyed by the Ming Empire. Other great nobles in the imperial capital are ready to overthrow him to the ground and seize his power.

He could only brag about his teeth and say what kind of strategic retreat this is. In the next year, he will not only regain the Siberian Plateau, but also unite with the great powers to defeat the Ming Empire and fight to the mainland of the Ming Empire!

In fact, he had no idea whether he could defeat the Ming Empire and preserve the Siberian Plain.

With more than 200,000 troops gathered in the Far East, it is basically difficult to repel the Ming Empire. What should I do?

This time, he was really cheated by Richelieu. If this old fox hadn't induced and stuffed money, how could he have been so angry that he ran to stab the super hornet's nest of the Ming Empire?

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. In the end, he simply rushed to Paris with a group of confidants to find Richelieu to argue.

Richelieu was intoxicated by himself at this moment, and the Ming Empire was indeed dragged down by Tsarist Russia.

With his mediation, the Persian Safavi Empire adopted a delay tactic. Every time the Ming Empire sent envoys to ask, they said they wanted to discuss it. After half a year of discussion, the Eurasian Railway has not started construction, and the Ming Empire has not taken any tough measures.

Sometimes, he admired his intelligence and used a little trick to hold back the powerful Ming Empire. Now, the French army has completed half of the dressing, and the development of the ship has been successful. In another one or two years, he will be able to lead the Anti-Habsburg Alliance to deal with Spain, Portugal, the Holy Roman Empire, the Ottoman Empire, and even the Ming Empire!

Just when he was proud, Calais sent a quick report, and Rozov, the Prime Minister of Tsarist Russia, came to him and was very angry.

Richelieu had long guessed this. It would be strange if only one Tsarist Russia could overthrow the Ming Empire!

The Ming Empire is so powerful now. Facing the anti-Habsburg alliance powers, it is easy to win one by one. Even the United Kingdom, France and the Netherlands may not have been able to unite. If Tsarist Russia wants to defeat them, wouldn’t that meant that Tsarist Russia can also defeat Britain, France and the Netherlands? It is impossible at all!

From the beginning, he knew that Tsarist Russia could not withstand the Ming Empire, but Tsarist Russia had a vast territory. According to the average advancement speed, with tens of millions of square kilometers of land in Siberia, Tsarist Russia could withstand at least five years. At that time, the anti-Habsburg alliance had long been developing.

By the way, what if Tsarist Russia was defeated by the Ming Empire five years later? Wouldn’t the Ming Empire be even more powerful and terrifying!

Richelieu was prepared for this. He would not let Tsarist Russia be defeated by the Ming Empire. At the critical moment, he had a backup plan.

Facing the aggressive Rozov, he still showed calmness. He even prepared a dinner as rich as last time and welcomed Rozov again at the Duke's Mansion.

Rozov's mood was very different from last time. Last time he ate with relish, but this time he felt like chewing wax. If he hadn't had to maintain aristocratic demeanor, he would have been furious on the spot.

As the saying goes, he does not hit the smiley person. Under Richelieu's earnest reception, Rozov could only bear the temperament and accompany the old fox to eat slowly.

During the meal, Richelieu was like a person who was fine. Through translation, he talked endlessly to him, just not mentioning the matter of the Ming Empire.

Rozov's heart is so angry, you are not doing anything, you are almost killed by you, pretend, continue to pretend, I will settle the score with you after dinner.

After finally reaching the end of the dinner, Richelieu was still as last time as he was still unsatisfied with invitations to chat in the study.

Rozov naturally followed with a gloomy face. Even if Richelieu didn't try to keep him, he would stay and settle the score with this old fox!

When he arrived at the study, Richelieu still had a look of beating on his face and was about to talk to him. Rozov interrupted without hesitation: "His Royal Highness, don't you think it's immoral to deceive your allies like this?"

Richelieu pretended to be innocent and asked inexplicably: "Prime Minister, what do you mean? When did I deceive my allies?"

Rozov said coldly: "You have not deceived your allies yet. How do you explain the matter of the Ming Empire?"

Richelieu still pretended to be innocent and said, "What's wrong with the Ming Empire? Haven't we discussed it?"

When Rozov heard this, he was so angry that he smoked his orifices. He said angrily: "What kind of discussion, you are just a naked deception!"

Richelieu said coldly, "Prime Minister, you should be responsible for your words. What have I deceived you? Didn't we provide military expenses? Did we not provide food and grass? Did we not provide weapons? We did not provide 200,000 muskets that we had agreed on at the beginning, and we even collected them for you a few months in advance. You said I was lying to you?"

Rozov was choked to death by his words. He was only blamed for being too greedy for money and being moved by ten boxes of gold. He actually agreed to them to stab the Ming Empire, a super hornet nest. Now, according to the terms of the agreement, Richelieu did not deceive him at all. He gave him all the money he deserved. However, the Ming Empire was too fierce and they could not withstand it at all!

He said in annoyance: "His Royal Highness, you have given all the things, but you didn't tell me that the Ming Empire was so powerful. In less than three months, they organized a million troops in the Far East, fighting from the Lena River Basin to the Yeni River Basin. We have lost most of the territory in the Far East!"

Richelieu was shocked when he heard this. He knew that Tsarist Russia would definitely not be able to beat the Ming Empire, but he did not expect that the Ming Empire would be so fierce. It could advance four or five thousand miles in three months. What kind of speed is this? Even if he did not encounter any resistance at all, he would have to run four or five thousand miles alone for three months!
