After Yao Kaizhi returned to the Northeast, he directly submitted relevant reports on the five Southeast Asian provinces to the Prime Minister's Office and the Political Bureau. Although it also had many problems with economic construction issues in North Vietnam and the northern central Laos, more of the strokes were placed on the Dragon King Cult, which currently occupies southern Dongtai Province and northern Cambodia. Yao Kaizhi reported in detail about how the Dragon King Cult was in rebellion, how to collude with the Qing Dynasty Prince Qing and the Shen family in Fujian, how Siam provided material assistance to it, and how the British and other European powers planned behind the scenes, and made detailed lists of Wang Yi's opinions at the end, first defeating the Tsarist Russian offensive in the north, and then solving the problem of the Dragon King Cult.

Since Alexander III ascended the throne, Tsarist Russia has developed quite smoothly in recent years due to the mercy of his father Alexander II. However, Alexander III was not an accomplished emperor himself, so in addition to retaining some of his father's policies, his own actions were not good. This also caused the reform of the state system that began during the Alexander II to a halt. Although it seemed that there were many contradictions within Tsarist Russia, it actually left a potential disaster for the collapse of the Tsarist Russian dynasty in the future.

However, Alexander III still wants to thank the Northeast Autonomous Region. Although he had already hated Wang Yi and others to the core, the war with Northeast successfully transformed internal conflicts between Tsarist Russia into external conflicts, which finally made His Majesty Tsarist Russia, who was feeling uncomfortable at the beginning of the throne. However, this kind of peace of mind was short-lived, and all sectors of society had always been resentful of the occupation of the vast territory. The Northeast Insurance Team's methods were cruel, and the bloody methods were even better than those of the Tsarist Russian army. In the occupied areas, other ethnic groups were still good.

It is said that as long as it is Russian, except for young women and young girls, only a few men can survive. They have to engage in heavy physical labor every day, and women will be taken back to the Northeast. As for the elderly and boys, the Northeast government's meaning is very simple. Tsarist Russia has no tomorrow. Racial cleansing is evil, but in the vast and sparsely populated northern territory, it is indeed the most effective way to reduce Tsarist Russia's domination. Moreover, when it comes to Tsarist Russia, Wang Yi's feeling is just to give the other person according to the other's way, without any burden in his heart.

After several years of war stalemate with the Northeast Autonomous Region, Alexander III was obviously no longer satisfied with the situation in front of him. Not only was he not satisfied, but most of the nobles and civilians were also the same. However, due to the unexpected and strong attacks in the Northeast in the early stage of the war and the battlefield was far away from Europe, Tsarist Russia was very passive in the war situation.

After several plans, the effect was still limited. Especially last year's defeat caused the empire to lose three main elite divisions, which greatly stimulated the Tsarist Russia. From His Majesty the Emperor to ordinary subjects, everyone felt the swords waving on the northeast above their heads. What's even more terrifying is that the reason for this defeat has not been clarified since now. They were originally strange soldiers, and they were going to the north, preparing to bypass the defense line of the northeast and launched an attack, but they went back and forth. Some said that they were ambushed in the northeast, and some said that the Northeast had deployed new weapons. There were many different opinions, and no one knew the truth.

However, the defeat caused a consensus in Tsarist Russia to quickly reach a consensus. Some of the great nobles and civilians who were originally very resistant to the war also began to act to support the assembly of the troops, and everyone was preparing for a major battle. The final result was hard to say, maybe it was the end of the war, or the collapse of the dynasty, or the stalemate was still the same. But the Tsarist Russians couldn't wait, and this was like a nightmare, and everyone couldn't wait to wake up as soon as possible.

The same is true in the Northeast, with years of wars constantly consuming national strength. Now the rebellion of the Dragon King Sect has caused unstable situations in the five Southeast Asian provinces, and the disgraceful role played by the Qing court in it made the Northeast decision-makers understand that the war of unity to destroy the Qing Dynasty is imminent!

Tsarist Russia and Northeast China both have their own reasons to continue the war. They are looking for loopholes in each other's fronts and are ready to make a decision and completely end this war that has lasted for several years.

The morning sun is not bright, and the spring in St. Petersburg continues the coldness of deep winter. The Winter Palace is in a white mist, and the square in front of it looks deserted.

Alexander III did not sleep well last night, so he was still a little tired at this moment. The servants delivered exquisite breakfast, but this did not arouse much appetite. Queen Maria Sophia Dagmara looked at her husband and whispered: "Your Majesty, eat more."

Alexander III seemed to have not heard it, and the queen frowned slightly and stopped talking.

Speaking of which, the relationship between the couple is not harmonious, and they just live a life. The reason is also very simple. The queen is a Danish princess. The original engagement partner was Alexander III's elder brother, the eldest son of the former Tsar Alexander II, and the crown prince Nicholas. However, in 1865, Nicholas fell from the horse's back due to accident and later unfortunately passed away. This year was originally the year of his marriage with Empress Maria, but unfortunately the heavens and man were separated forever. Before his death, Nicholas entrusted his fiancée to his younger brother Alexandrovich, which is now Alexander III. At that time, the prince had already had a crush on his favorite, but he could not refuse his brother's wish, so he finally married the Danish princess.

Regardless of the specific reason for his decision to get married, Alexander III has become the tsar of the empire, and Maria has also become the queen.

After breakfast, Alexander III came to George Hall, where the throne here was a map inlaid with 450,000 colorful stones. When Alexander III arrived, Army Secretary Miriu Jinjun and others were there.

"Your Majesty!" The Army Minister saluted.

The Tsar waved his hand and said, "What's new news today?"

Mi Liujin replied: "Report to your Majesty, there are two. The first is that the rebellion occurred in the overseas colonies of the Northeast Autonomous Region in Southeast Asia, and the current situation is very serious. The second is that the French envoy has arrived in St. Petersburg. The other party hopes to strengthen its relations with us and is willing to provide us with a certain amount of arms and technical support."

Both of these are good news, so Alexander III rarely smiled.

The first one is easy to understand. The Northeast is one of the most important enemies of Tsarist Russia at present. If there is a problem in the Northeast, it is naturally good news for Tsarist Russia. As for the French envoy, this issue needs to be discussed from the beginning.
