"No, no, no, you are not the Tsar yet! You don't have that power!"
Menshikov stared at Elizabeth with red eyes.
It was this woman who ruined his good deeds. Menshikov became more murderous and rushed over like a madman.
Osilev looked horrified and hurriedly asked the guards to intercept him.
But Menshikov is also a veteran on the battlefield. All three guards were knocked away by Menshikov. Menshikov's iron hand was about to strangle Elizabeth's neck.
Elizabeth was calm, she slowly took out a letter and stretched it out.
"Prince Regent, do you still want to kill the second emperor of Tsarist Russia?"
After Menshikov saw the letter, he was slightly startled, then stopped immediately and opened his eyes wide to see the content of the letter.
The above is how he killed Peter II.
Most importantly, at the end of the envelope, Peter II announced that he would pass his position as Tsar to his sister Elizabeth I.
The envelope has the unique signature of Peter II, which is difficult for others to imitate and does not allow Menshikov to doubt it.
"Part of this letter and the charges against your regent have been made public."
"Menshikov, your reputation, status, and power in Tsarist Russia will all come to nothing!"
Everything was settled. When Menshikov heard these words, he was so brave that he could easily knock away three young and strong guards. He suddenly aged a lot.
He slumped on the ground weakly and sighed.
The matter was known to Tsarist Russia, so even if Tamenshikov ascended the throne in Tsarist Russia and became tsar, it would still be a country that would constantly attack him.
The rule may one day be overthrown.
"I lost. I didn't expect that I defeated the arrogant Peter the Great, but was tricked by his grandson who was only twelve years old... Haha..."
Elizabeth's eyes were full of indifference, and she wished she could cut the man who caused her grandfather and brother to death into pieces.
However, what Tsarist Russia needs most now is to calm down the excesses. Unless the regent Menshikov dies, his followers will not rebel.
In the end, Menshikov's family was exiled abroad...
Elizabeth ascended the throne in Russia as the new Tsar with the support of conservatives, and the news shocked the whole of Europe.
…
At this time, after Teresa received the news, she immediately held an emergency meeting. Austria and Tsarist Russia were originally allies, and she and Elizabeth were good friends.
In the past, Menshikov controlled the military and political power. After the war broke out, Teresa looked for this trapped Eastern European beast and jointly attacked Prussia.
But Menshikov was rebuffed, saying that Prussia was protected by Britain and that we could not be at odds with Britain.
Teresa sighed, never expecting Menshikov to do anything great from now on.
It is even believed that the tethered beast of Tsarist Russia will further weaken under the rule of the coward Menshikov until it dies.
But I didn't expect that such a change would happen in Tsarist Russia so soon.
Austrian Upper House.
Grand Duke Teresa looked at the Senate, scrambling for discussion.
How about an alliance with Tsarist Russia now to release the beasts trapped in the north and deal with Prussia and the Long Yan army?
After a heated exchange of opinions, under Theresa's gaze, the Senate was divided into three factions.
Allied parties, non-aligned parties and neutral parties.
The non-aligned minister pointed at the area of Tsarist Russia and shouted angrily: "The Tsarist Russians are just a group of robbers and bandits. You have forgotten that when Peter I was in power, they rapidly expanded their territory."
"It's even threatening our allied countries."
The alliance faction immediately retorted: "I think it's the opposite. Although Tsarist Russia defeated Long Yan and was trapped in the north, it is still strong now. And I heard that Long Yan's troops disappeared after defeating the French navy."
"Those are five supply ships and two battleships. Long Yan's strength is obvious to all. Who knows if they will suddenly appear."
"Allying with Tsarist Russia and letting them snipe Long Yan is the best choice!"
The centrists said they had no opinion.
The non-aligned faction snorted coldly: "I heard that Elizabeth I is now on the throne in Tsarist Russia. Although Menshikov has stepped down, his power is still there."
"Moreover, Elizabeth I relied on conservatives to become Tsar. Now Tsarist Russia can be said to have internal and external troubles.",
"We are now in alliance with Tsarist Russia. Will the conservatives agree? What is the attitude of Menshikov's remnant party, and what is the attitude of Elizabeth I to stabilize her position?"
"She may refuse our alliance proposal for the sake of her own rule."
The alliance faction slammed the table: "You are wrong. At this time, she will agree to our request for an alliance."
"One side can take the opportunity to eliminate political opponents."
"The second is to establish meritorious deeds. Maybe we can recapture the ice-free port. That is the most coveted thing of the Tsarist Russians. They have been suppressed for too long and need a big victory."
"The third is to establish prestige. Elizabeth is young after all. If she doesn't have prestige, how can she suppress the many factions in the House of Lords?"
After a heated exchange of views, the two sides did not reach a conclusion.
At this time, Theresa, who had been silent, spoke: "I think..."
As soon as she spoke, the House of Lords fell silent.
Allied, non-aligned, and neutral factions all turned to look at the only female archduchess in Austrian history.
Teresa smiled lightly, looked at the current map of Europe, and said lightly.
"Long Yan's vanguard fleet has disappeared from the Mediterranean. Whether you believe it or not, Liu Zheng may have landed in Europe."
"It is probably only a matter of time before Liu Zheng's large force lands."
"Although it may not threaten us in the short term, Long Yan's armaments are advanced, and everyone understands that Austria may not be an opponent. And..."
The senators fell silent.
Teresa looked around and sighed: "That's a million dragon flame army. Can you resist it?"
The faces of the senators seemed to be covered by dark clouds, and they were extremely depressed.
They really want to say that Long Yan is nothing, but the reality is that Austria may not be Long Yan's opponent.
Teresa knocked on the corner of the table.
"However, Tsarist Russia has experience fighting Long Yan, and he has the greatest hatred for Long Yan."
"Although now only the Netherlands and the Ottomans are left in Europe, and we have not declared war with Prussia, and we have an absolute advantage in terms of military strength, everything will be different when Long Yan joins the battlefield."
"So why don't we unite with Tsarist Russia now? Do we have to wait until our advantage is destroyed by Long Yan?"
The senators fell into thinking. It was true. The non-aligned faction wanted to say a few more words.
Teresa stopped the senator and said, "I know you are worried about what if Tsarist Russia is released to expand during the war and threaten us?"
"The premise is that we can win and Tsarist Russia will not be completely beaten to death by Long Yan."
All the senators nodded. She is indeed the smartest woman in Austria. This plan is simply brilliant, killing two birds with one stone.
Soon, Theresa arranged for people to travel from Vienna to Moscow to form an alliance with Tsarist Russia.
