Chapter 63, The France Crisis

The world is always filled with coincidences. Nicholas II, who was initially hesitating whether to commence the construction of the Siberian Railway, made a firm decision to proceed when he learned of the changes at the frontline.

Clearly, after the frontline troops encountered logistic problems, they did not turn to him, the Tsarist, to address the issue, but instead sought help from the Allied Command controlled by Shinra, deeply provoking Nicholas II.

To free himself from Shinra's influence, Nicholas II no longer cared to investigate the true intentions of the Americans.

The railway would not run away; as long as the Siberian Railway was built, no matter what the Americans plotted, the initiative would still be in the hands of the Tsarist Government.

Any "conspiracies and tricks" were insignificant in the face of absolute power. Apart from the Anglo-Austrian two countries, there was no third nation in the world that the Tsarist Government feared.
