Chapter 516: Setting fire to warehouses and borrowing food from Yin soldiers

"Odessa × 3"

When the translator translated Mayor Kasinacheev's words and they listened, the three present shouted in unison, and then looked at Mayor Kasinacheev at the same time.

"That's right! As long as the French Empire has enough money, there will be as much food as possible!" Mayor Kasinacheev told the three present with confidence.

The translator hurriedly translated Kasinacheev's words to them.

"Mr. Mayor, it's not that we don't want to believe you! It's just that your idea of ​​getting food from Odessa is too much of a joke! We are at the stage of war with the Russian Empire, how could they buy us food? ?" Major General Conrobel said to Mayor Kasinacheev, and it could be seen that Major General Conrobel was full of concerns about Kasinacheev.

The Russian Empire and Britain and France are at war. Some unscrupulous traders in Russia dare to deliver supplies to hostile countries at this juncture. The officials in Odessa have enough heads to be chopped off by the tsar!

"Major General, you don't know much about the Russian Empire! In the concept of our Russian Empire officials, there has never been a so-called hostile country. As long as it is profitable for themselves, they will devote themselves to it. Making money is their purpose!" Mayor Kasinacheev revealed a sarcasm in his speech: "It's better to call them businessmen than officials. They will do everything possible to sell those who do not belong to them. things become theirs.

The exchange of grain for francs is simply a fitting deal! "

"Aren't they afraid that their tsar will find out?" Konrobel said to Mayor Kasinacheev with a shocked expression.

Although there are also all kinds of corruption in the French Empire, no one dares to commit crimes against the wind.

Anyone who chose to commit crimes against the wind was without exception thrown into debt prison by Jerome Bonaparte, or directly handed over to a military court.

"Discovered?" Kasinacheev smiled "hehe", and the old **** said in the ground: "How far is Moscow from Odessa! His Majesty's hand can't reach here!"

"But the tsar can send a special envoy to inspect it! If it is found out, isn't it over?" Major General Conrobel asked again.

"It's over? Impossible! The special envoys appointed by His Majesty the Tsar will eventually return without success. The officials of the Odessa capital will never allow His Majesty's special envoy to find out anything, and they will use all means to bribe the special envoy. Fake! As I just said, His Majesty's man is in Moscow, he has no idea what happened in Odessa, and all the information he receives is just some fake news from the mouth of the envoy! Over the years, Ode Sa’s officials have already thoroughly studied all the actions of His Majesty the Tsar, and for them, His Majesty the Tsar has no secrets!” Mayor Kasinacheev responded with a firm tone to Major General Conrobel.

"Speaking of which, Odessa is an airtight barrel! However, I don't believe that there are not one or two special envoys among these people who do not accept the benefits of Odessa officials!" Major General Conrobel questioned. .

"Major General, as far as I know! No one has escaped the corruption of Odessa yet!" Kasinacheev responded eloquently to Major General Kangrobel: "Even if there are them, there are still The second plan!"

"What plan?" Major General Konrobel asked Mayor Kasinacheev.

Although the three of them already knew what plan could make the special envoy shut up forever, they still wanted to hear what was different from what Kasinacheev said was different from what they thought.

"Murder and kill! Set fire to the warehouse!" Sure enough, Mayor Kasinacheev said what they thought.

The easiest way is to set fire to the warehouse. It only takes a sudden fire to smooth out all the deficits. It is really a good thing for the country and the people (Russian Empire officials).

"I'm very curious, how do you know so much about the internal affairs of Odessa!" Major General Conrobel looked at Mayor Kasinacheev with a half-smiling smile: "How can you be the mayor with Odessa? Hooked up!"

"Major General, in fact, I have been helping officials in the Odessa region to carry out... um! Selling some items, so I still know a little about their situation! Some of them are still my comrades in arms!" Casinacheye The husband said something to Conrobel.

"Since you have said so, then on behalf of the coalition headquarters, I will give you the full authority to solve the food problem of 30,000 people! However, you must first prove to us that you have this ability!" Major General Conrobel Casey Mayor Nacheyev said.

"Don't worry!" Mayor Kasinacheev responded to Major General Conrobel.

Subsequently, Major General Conrobel took out a French bearer bond of 500,000 francs from his pocket and told Kasinacheev that the coalition forces now needed 3 million francs of food, and 500,000 francs was the deposit they delivered in advance, and the follow-up money After the food arrives, it will be paid in full, and the mayor can use these bonds to exchange for the same amount of gold.

However, certain banks in the Russian Empire are required to redeem.

Kasinacheev trembled and took the Bank of France bearer bond handed over by Major General Conrobel. He understood that for the officials of the capital of Odessa, the value of the paper rubles that had been depreciating wildly all the way was a piece of waste paper. And the bonds issued by the Bank of France and the Bank of England are what is really guaranteed.

In a way, these bearer bonds were already worth more than half a million francs in the Russian Empire.

"Please rest assured, I will provide you with the food you need as soon as possible!" Kasinacheev solemnly assured Major General Conrobel.

"As soon as possible!" Major General Conrobel reminded.

The next morning, Mayor Kasinacheev left Yevpatoria on a merchant ship.

In the next few days, Kasinacheev has not returned, and the food of the 90,000 troops of the three kingdoms of Yingsa Tu also decreases day by day.

This is still the case that the French Empire allocated a part of their own supply ships to help them, and during this period, a lot of food was also delivered in the small town of Yevpatoria.

In the early morning of May 30, the first day of the third week after the coalition forces landed on the Crimean Peninsula, several merchant ships flying the flag of the Russian Empire swaggered close to the town of Yevpatoria, and soldiers guarding the coastline were Report the town to Brigadier General McMahon.

McMahon immediately issued instructions to the Zhuaff regiment to meet the battle at any time, and then Brigadier General McMahon personally led people to the pier to check.

"Spyglass!" McMahon stretched out his hand and said to the soldier beside him. The soldier hurriedly handed the telescope to Brigadier General McMahon.

McMahon, holding a telescope, watched the convoys approaching Yevpatoria, and on one of the ships Commodore McMahon saw Kasinacheev.

"It's not the enemy, let's go back!" Brigadier General McMahon put down the telescope and waved his hand gently, and the surrounding Zhuaf regiment soldiers scattered!

After the fleet entered the port of Yevpatoria, bags of rice were unloaded from the wearer, and the empty warehouse was completely filled at once, and the remaining grain was taken by the other party's open space at home.

Upon seeing this, Brigadier General McMahon hurriedly ordered his soldiers to help the group of "businessmen" carry the rice off the boat together.

It took about three hours before and after, and finally all the food on the four ships was removed.

After the transportation was over, Mayor Kasinacheev brought a guy who claimed to be the captain of the fleet.

From the temperament emanating from the captain in front of him, it can be seen that the so-called captain in front of him is likely to be a soldier from Odessa, and the level of this soldier is not low.

A soldier personally came to **** food, and he still gave them food from hostile countries. It seems that the twists and turns in the Russian Empire are deep.

Although Brigadier General McMahon knew that the so-called captain in front of him was a soldier, he still delivered all the follow-up 1.5 million franc bearer bonds to the captain in front of him as agreed.

"I hope to continue to cooperate next time!" The "captain" who received the bearer bond said to Brigadier General McMahon in a standard Parisian accent.

"Definitely!" Brigadier General McMahon nodded in response, knowing that the deal had just begun.

After a few short words of innocence, the "captain" left the town of Yevpatoria Brigadier General McMahon watched them leave.

It was not until the fleet drifted away that Brigadier General McMahon asked Kasinacheev who was standing behind them?

"It is said to be the former Governor Vorontsov!" Mayor Kasinacheev responded to Brigadier General McMahon: "After Vorontsov was dismissed from the position of Governor of Crimea by His Majesty the Tsar, he did not accept His Majesty the Tsar. The post of commander-in-chief of the Caucasus, and retire! I can't guarantee that there is no grudge in my heart!"

"The partisan struggle has spread to the army!" Brigadier General McMahon sighed with schadenfreude, and then issued an order to Ivankov to load part of the grain into the truck.

"Do you want to pretend?" Ivankov responded to Brigadier General McMahon.

"Pretend!" Brigadier General McMahon responded decisively to Ivankov.

Ivankov had to obey Brigadier General McMahon's order to load all the food that was vacant outside the warehouse with the collected carts, and then Brigadier General McMahon sent two battalions of Zhuav troops to **** them personally. Anyone who dared to approach. The people carrying the grain trucks will be killed mercilessly.
