Chapter 319: Armistice on the Eastern Front—Meeting of the Three Emperors

There is a forest in the south of Przemesir, and Xiao Jie met with Alexander and Francis I. The Austrian side had already arranged this place. On the clearings beside the forest, there were several long tables placed with various food and fruits on them. Next to it was a newly built pavilion. The Austrian side also arranged other programs for the meeting, such as hunting. Although the forest was not big, there were still some animals such as hares and deer. Of course, no one really focused on hunting. They just used this as an excuse to discuss some shameful things.

On May 14, Xiao Jie and his party crossed the San River by boat and arrived at the edge of the forest outside Przemesil. At this time, people from Austria and Russia had arrived. Seeing Xiao Jie and the others arrived, Francis I and Alexander both welcomed them with people.

"His Majesty Andrecy, I am so happy to see you." As the organizer of the event, Francis I greeted first.

"You are so polite, it's very easy for me to see you." Xiao Jie responded politely. Although he did not want to deal with these hypocritical people, basic etiquette was still necessary.

"His Majesty Andrecy, this should be our third meeting, right?" Alexander also smiled enthusiastically.

"Yes, I'm glad that His Majesty the Tsar still remembers these." Xiao Jie replied. Seeing Alexander again, Xiao Jie was a little puzzled, because Alexander in history died in 1825, or was tired of the world and passed the throne to his younger brother, but unexpectedly it was already 1826, but Alexander still controlled Russia's full strength. However, the information sent back from Moscow stated that Alexander was consciously asking his younger brother, Grand Duke Nicholas to participate in the decisions on major national affairs. Perhaps he was preparing for his retreat.

"His Majesty Andresi, please agree to me to introduce you. My younger brother is also the heir to the Russian throne, Grand Duke Nicholas." Alexander enthusiastically pulled the tall middle-aged man and introduced him like Xiao Jie.

"I am very honored to see you." Grand Duke Nicholas greeted Xiao Jie.

Xiao Jie also replied enthusiastically and looked at Grand Duke Nicholas. He knew that this man had ruled Russia for thirty years in history. Grand Duke Nicholas was the third son of Bavel I. Since Alexander had no male heir and Alexander's second brother Grand Duke Constantine gave up the right to inherit the throne, Nicholas became the heir to the Russian throne. It is reported that Alexander did not love beauty and was only obsessed with his own sister. If he wanted to travel to the Atlantic Ocean and land in Britain, it was indeed a very serious problem.

"Since you two are so persistent, I won't refuse." Xiao Jie said with a treacherous smile.

"That's great. We will order the army to start preparing immediately." Hearing that Xiao Jie agreed to their request, the two were overjoyed.

"However, I need to remind both of you that if you want to send troops to punish the United Kingdom, it will require landing in the United Kingdom, and it will require a large number of warships and transport ships. I think it is too late for the two countries to prepare now, and our country has already prepared almost." Xiao Jie said a little helplessly.

Francis I and Alexander's face suddenly darkened. They should have thought that Xiao Jie would not agree to their request so easily. They just agreed to them, just now, just to be fooling them. Seeing that the two of them had no changes in their faces, Xiao Jie's face turned red because he wanted to hold back his laughter. After all, it was very impolite to laugh at the emperors of other countries.

"Then His Majesty Andresi, your country's navy is powerful, and even the British Royal Navy, which was once the world's number one, is not a match for your country's navy. I think we can rent some of your country's warships and merchant ships?" Alexander asked.
