America 1869: A Doppelganger Every Day

Chapter 52 Far East Part 6: The Tsar Agrees to Autonomy

No matter how angry Alexander II was?

In the end, no action was taken.

There was no other way; I simply couldn't bring myself to do it.

The presence of two million people in the Far East meant that the Far East General had ample manpower and resources.

These two points alone are enough to ensure the Russian Empire's defeat.

If the Russians want to regain control of the Far East, they need a massive military force, a huge amount of supplies, and, more importantly, to maintain long-term supply lines.

Moreover, this would require the mobilization of most of the troops, affecting the deployment in the Middle East and Europe.

The most crucial element is the prophecy of the five 100-yellow roosters.

According to the prophecy, Prussia will be victorious.

The Russian Empire has already taken this as a contingency plan and is preparing to restart its Black Sea Fleet once again.

To regain control of European sea power.

Compared to that barren land in the Far East, this is the most important thing.

However, Alexander was unwilling to give up the Far East just like that.

Since you agree that the Far East is still under the rule of my Tsar, then you must hand over what the Far East is obligated to hand over.

Therefore, three days later, Alexander II finally made up his mind to recognize the existence of the Far Eastern Autonomous Region.

When the Far East general received this news, he felt it was unbelievable.

But upon reflection, it makes perfect sense.

However, when he saw that Alexander II demanded that all personal income tax, land tax, property tax, etc., from the Far East regions be handed over to Tsarist Russia, the Far East General cursed loudly.

"He really dares to ask for so much. The Far East originally required him to invest money every year, but now he doesn't invest a single penny and still wants so much. He must be dreaming."

But Bickley just chuckled and said...

"General, there's no need to be angry."

"Since he wants it, then let's give it to him."

"However, we must explain to the Tsar that our Far East is too far from them, and if they want this money, they should come and collect it themselves."

"If they dare to come, then give it to them. But after they leave, we'll just take the money back."

"Besides, we've already given them money, and their Far East is now part of the Soviet Union. As the Tsar of the Soviet Union, shouldn't he also provide some support to our Far East?"

"Whether it's weapons and equipment, or food, cloth, and furs."

"If he gives it to us, it will be an unexpected bonus."

"If they won't give it to us, then let's make this matter public."

"Anyway, it's not our people who are being lost."

The Far East General's angry expression vanished completely at this moment.

Sure enough, having your own advisors is really important.

He hadn't thought of this method.

"Great idea, that's a really great idea."

"We're in charge here in the Far East now."

"Even if you give them more money, they can't take it with them."

"Now that the Tsar has recognized the existence of our Far East Autonomous Region, shouldn't we publicize this matter to the outside world to ensure that the Tsar has no reason to take action against our Far East?"

Bickley Road.

"That's certainly how it should be."

"During this period, because of the Far East situation, I have been in contact with the World Daily and the American Chinese Daily."

"When I first proposed Far East autonomy, two newspapers were very interested, saying that if it succeeded, they would be willing to establish their branches in the Far East."

"If the general agrees, I will allow them to establish their newspaper in the Far East and transmit some news from the Far East to the international community."

"Then the Tsar will have no choice but to accept it."

"Then our Far East will be completely safe."

The Far East General immediately agreed.

Shortly after the Far East General agreed, Le Monde and Les Miguel both published articles about the establishment of an autonomous region in the Far East.

The Far East General became the highest-ranking official of the Far East Autonomous Region.

Even now, no one knows his name; they only know that he was the Far East General.

It wasn't that the Far Eastern general was unwilling to leave his name behind, but rather that something Bickley said to him made him abandon the idea.

"This Far East region must be a thorn in the Tsar's side."

"The current situation involves East Asia and Europe, which is keeping the Tsar in check and preventing him from taking action against the Far East."

"But who can guarantee that the other side will never make a move?"

"When the time comes to actually take action, it will be with the fury of thunder."

"The Far East region may not be able to withstand it."

"When that time comes, General, you will have no choice but to leave the Far East for a new country and live a life of luxury."

"Back then, the less people knew your name, the better, so wouldn't it be better to just always refer to you as the General of the Far East?"

To put it bluntly, this was Li Changsheng deliberately misleading the other party. He wanted the title of Far East General to be just a name, rather than a statement of who ruled the Far East.

Now that the Far East has become an autonomous region, and not just in name but in reality.

It is an autonomous region that is nominally under the control of the Russian bear, but in reality has little to do with the Russian bear.

Under these circumstances, Li Changsheng would absolutely not allow this area to be taken back by others.

Over this long period of time, he has deployed nearly 200 clones in this area.

Since his transmigration, he has only obtained five or six hundred clones, one-third of which have been deployed to the Far East.

These entities control most of the military, commerce, factories, land, mines, ports, fleets, and so on in the Far East.

Therefore, this area is the territory ruled by Li Changsheng's clones.

The title of Far East General is just that—a title.

Even the businesses under the Far East General's name were controlled by Li Changsheng's clone, who could take over at any time.

After the Far East General agreed.

The Far East general, who wished to remain anonymous, became famous worldwide.

Alexander II became a huge joke.

Alexander II had been planning for years across the Far East, but in the end, he only benefited others.

He became the second global laughing stock after Napoleon III.

Last year, not long after the prophecy of the Five Ones appeared, Napoleon III's 10-strong army was easily wiped out by Prussia.

I was also arrested.

The Prussian army is now conscripting soldiers for Paris.

Without the prediction of five jacks, everyone would have thought that Paris still had a chance to win.

With this prophecy, things changed. Everyone was waiting to see when Prussia would completely conquer Paris.

Everyone was waiting for Prussia to rise as a new superpower.

And then, the second prediction of the Five Ones came true.

Le Monde even published a new issue titled, "The prophecy of the Five Ones has finally been proven true after two heads of state became a laughing stock."

Five of the 10 chickens became even more popular.

No one knows how Napoleon III reacted.

However, Alexander II was furious.

Even if I can't take back the Far East, I'll still cause you some trouble.
