Chapter 798 The Royal Family on the Run

The news of the Russian royal family's eastward escape has become a hot topic among people in European countries and a hot topic of concern for many European royal families.

For the royal families of some small countries, they are more looking forward to the way that monarchical powers such as Britain and Australasia will deal with the Russian royal family after the failure of the war.

After all, no one can guarantee that they and their descendants can sit on the throne safely. A life-saving method that can be selected is naturally what the royal families of these small countries expect.

Since he has been prepared to take action, Arthur naturally cannot delay the time for too long.

On January 19, 1932, the Australasian royal family contacted the royal families of many European monarchical countries and requested the royal families of various countries to abide by the European royal joint declaration signed at the beginning and rescue the Russian royal family who was already fleeing as much as possible.

The reactions of the royal families of various countries are different, but the royal families of most small countries are still looking forward to it.

After all, whether the monarchy of a small country exists or not is just a matter of a word from the great powers. If the great powers support the existence of the monarchy, it is definitely good news for the monarchs of these small countries.

Even if the European royal families unite, they will create a force that is not weaker than the powers.

Take a closer look at the monarchies among the current powers, the strongest British Empire, the third Australasia, the Italian Kingdom, which can also be regarded as a power, the German Empire, where the monarchy barely exists, the Austrian Empire, which is lingering on, etc., all of which are European royal families.

If these monarchies can unite, it will be the most powerful affirmation and status guarantee for the monarchies of various countries.

Unfortunately, the different interests between countries have also created different relationships between the royal families of various countries.

This also means that it is impossible for monarchies to unite completely. At most, they can only work hard on some common interests, but they will still go their separate ways afterwards.

Among the many European monarchies, what Arthur wants most is of course the support of the British royal family, or King George V of the United Kingdom.

In fact, in this matter, Arthur still believes that George V will make the right choice.

After all, since the era of Queen Victoria, the status of the British king has not been as stable as imagined.

Although George V had secured his throne, he could not gain more power from the cabinet.

This method of uniting the royal families of other countries was also beneficial to George V.

After all, Britain was not like Australasia, where Arthur could rule alone and make the cabinet and other officials obedient.

Just the next day, the British royal family gave a reply, agreeing to the rescue plan for the Russian royal family.

Speaking of which, the British Empire is definitely the country that has taken in the most exiled royal families and governments. After all, the British Empire has been one of the most influential European countries in the past hundred years.

Especially in the past 50 years, the British Empire has been a well-deserved world hegemon and the most powerful and influential country in the world.

The reason why the exiled governments and royal families of various countries chose to go to Britain was that they saw Britain's voice and influence in the world.

If the support of the British government and royal family can be obtained, the restoration of the exiled government and royal family is only a matter of time.

Unfortunately, over a long period of time, there were only a handful of governments and royal families that were able to obtain the support of the British Empire and successfully restore the monarchy.

After all, whether it was the British royal family or the government, the first thing to consider was the vital interests of Britain.

Only after it was determined that helping these people to restore the monarchy would benefit themselves, would the British take action.

Just like this time, George V saw the interests and benefits of participating in the rescue of the Russian royal family and chose to join first.

The participation of the British royal family was like a shot of reassurance for the royal families of small European countries.

With the two most powerful leaders, Britain and Australasia, the royal families of other countries could also participate with confidence.

In just a few days, the royal families of more than ten countries announced their support for the rescue operation initiated by Australasia.

With the support of these countries, Australasia also occupied a great position in diplomacy.

The next step was naturally to ask Russia to stop hunting down the royal family and ensure the safety of the Russian royal family in diplomacy.

For Arthur, the personal safety of Nicholas II was actually irrelevant. As long as the British participate in the operation, at most, Nicholas II and his family will be sent to exile in Britain.

Even if the British support the restoration of Nicholas II in the future, it will definitely be after World War II.

Moreover, whether the British will risk a full-scale war with the current Russia to help Nicholas II is a question worth thinking about.

Britain after World War II may not necessarily be the world hegemon. Arthur can actually decide whether Britain will have the strength to restore Nicholas II at that time.

While the royal families in Europe were fiercely discussing how to rescue the Russian royal family, an army was quietly passing through the distant Siberia.

"Nicholas, do you think we can escape to Australasia safely?" In this team, the Russian royal family was protected in the center. At this time, Queen Alexandra no longer had that delicate face. Because of the long escape and lack of sleep, Queen Alexandra looked very haggard.

"I will." Nicholas II also lost his previous fighting spirit. Nicholas II previously thought about how to regain power and how to turn himself into the greatest tsar of the Russian Empire.

But now, what Nicholas II thinks about most is how to ensure the safety and continuity of his dearest granddaughter, the Russian royal bloodline.

"Your Majesty, if we go further east, we will reach Tobolsk. If we go south along the Irtysh River, we can reach the planned Omsk.

We still have a small army in Omsk, which also has the train we urgently need, which can go directly east to Vladivostok. "Nicholas II only has a few confidants left. Domagoi Abramovich, Chief of the Russian General Staff, consoled him:"

As long as we can reach Tobolsk, our plan will be mostly successful. "

In fact, this flight to the east was not a sudden decision of Nicholas II. Even before the war broke out, Nicholas II had made plans to flee to Siberia.

However, the plan to escape at that time was to go to Vladivostok, rebuild the army there, and then counterattack Europe.

But now, Nicholas II really had no energy to counterattack Europe. After the death of his only son, Crown Prince Alexei, the only ones who could inherit the throne of the Tsar were Nicholas II's younger brother, Grand Duke Michael, and the younger Princess Seyanna.

The problem is that due to various reasons, Grand Duke Mikhail's descendants have lost the right to inherit the throne.

In fact, the only one left who is qualified to inherit the throne of the Tsar is Princess Scheiana.

Pushing Princess Scheiana to the throne of Tsar was a plan that Nicholas II could not even imagine.

He couldn't sit still on the throne of the Tsar, let alone Princess Scheiana who couldn't even speak.

At present, the best outcome for the Russian royal family is to leave Russia completely and then use various methods to ensure the prosperity of the whole family.

In fact, logically speaking, it would be more convenient for Nicholas II and his family to escape from the sea. As long as you leave the Baltic Sea and head west, you can easily reach the UK and ensure your own safety.

But the problem is that most of Russia's navy has been taken over by another Russia. The fleet in the hands of Tsarist Russia only has a small number of small and medium-sized warships, and they are still under strict monitoring by another Russia.

Rather than pin his hopes of escape on the few remaining fleets, Nicholas II preferred to pin his hopes on his loyal army and escape from Siberia.

After all, Tsarist Russia's naval mutiny has not happened once or twice. If the navy soldiers learned that the entire royal family wanted to escape on a warship, the soldiers' first thought would not be to protect the royal family and go to England, but to take the entire royal family to another Russia.

Capturing all members of the royal family was an achievement that would make all navy soldiers jealous. In the face of interests, nothing is absolute.

When Nicholas II fled, he had another plan, which was to go to Finland, which is adjacent to him.

However, Nicholas II ultimately rejected such a plan. Although Grand Duke Dmitri of Finland is Arthur's brother-in-law, Finland's relationship with the former Tsarist Russia is also unusual.

Tsarist Russia ruled Finland for hundreds of years and inevitably exploited the Finnish people in various ways.

Nicholas II was not sure whether the Finnish people would welcome his arrival, and finally gave up on Finland, which was closer to him.

"I hope so." Nicholas II nodded calmly, already looking at all his results lightly.

However, looking at Queen Alexandra beside him and Princess Scheiana in Queen Alexandra's arms, Nicholas II still felt a little regretful and annoyed: "

General Domagoy, in any case, you and your army give priority to protecting the safety of the Queen and Princess.

As for me, if there is really no hope of escape, I am willing to live or die with the Russian Empire. "

Even though Nicholas II was a headstrong, blindly arrogant, and narrow-minded monarch, it did not affect that he was a man who valued his family.

The reason why the demon monk Rasputin was able to fool the Russian royal family and politics was not only that Rasputin was really good at fooling people's hearts, but also more importantly, Nicholas II and Empress Alexandra had a very good attitude towards their own affairs. The child was loved and valued by Crown Prince Alexei.
