"Your Excellency, General Guarco is calling. He has taken control of Petersburg. The entire cabinet and all the departments of the government of the Imperium are under our control. The cabinet ministers have also issued statements in support of your succession to the throne.
However, Grand Duke Nicholas, Grand Duke Agelni, and the others had already left Petersburg for foreign countries. Furthermore, they also took away Archduchess Olga Nikolaevna!”
Lieutenant General Brushilov reported to Grand Duke Michael.
"Very good. It seems that they are still very sensible. However, Archduke Nicholas took away Archduchess Olga Nikolaevna. Was he afraid that I would kill a baby? After all, I'm her biological uncle! Of course, it was also possible that Grand Duke Nicholas was still unwilling to give up and had a new plan!”Grand Duke Michael murmured.
However, he didn't care anymore.
As long as he could succeed the throne and become the new Tsar. He believed that under his rule, the Russian Empire would undergo earth-shattering changes and become even stronger.
At that time, even if Grand Duke Nicholas and Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna still existed, they would not pose any threat to him.
"Your Excellency, the various local governments, governors, and generals of the army and navy have also sent telegrams to express their support for you!”Lieutenant General Brushilov continued.
Grand Duke Michael nodded. Everything was as he had expected.
After they won the war, everything was settled.
"Send a telegram to General Guarco and ask him to return to Mosk with the high-level cabinet and the various departments of the Imperium's government. I will inherit the throne here and become the new Tsar of the Empire. From now on, Mosque would replace Petersburg and become the new capital of the Empire!”Grand Duke Michael ordered.
"Yes, Your Excellency!" Lieutenant General Brushilov replied.
The generals under Grand Duke Michael's command had long known of Grand Duke Michael's decision, so they did not intend to be surprised.
It had been two to three hundred years since Peter the Great moved the capital from Mosk to Petersburg.
During this period, the nobles of the Russian Empire had been operating in Petersburg for so many years that they had long been deeply rooted.
If Mihail wanted to change the current situation of the Russian Empire, he would inevitably touch the interests of these nobles. Perhaps there would be a violent conflict.
Therefore, he decided to place the capital in Mosk. In that case, it would be more advantageous for him.
"Tell all the places in the empire that in a month, I will succeed the throne in Mosk and become the new Tsar!”Grand Duke Michael continued.
"Your Excellency, isn't this too hasty?”Major General Vasily asked.
One month seemed like a long time. However, the territory of the Russian Empire was too vast.
Within a month, many of the local higher-ups of the Russian Empire would not be able to reach Mosk.
Archduke Michael shook his head." So be it. We need to hurry up and make sure that no more accidents will happen."”
"Yes, Your Excellency!" Major General Vasily replied.
In Petersburg, after Lieutenant General Guarko gave the order to the high-ranking officials of the Imperial Cabinet, the cabinet ministers were very dissatisfied. However, they had no other choice but to set off for Mosk.
Petersburg had been the capital of the Russian Empire for many years.
It had been managed by the rich and powerful for many years. If they could, they naturally wanted to stay in Petersburg. In other words, he hoped that Grand Duke Michael would inherit the throne in Petersburg.
However, if Grand Duke Michael wanted to choose Mosk as the capital of the empire, could they refuse?
With the army and the local government already loyal to Grand Duke Michael, even the cabinet ministers had no room to resist.
At the same time, Grand Duke Michael announced that he would inherit the throne in Mosk a month later and become the new Tsar.
This caused a huge uproar in the Russian Empire and even the entire Europe.
The local high-ranking officials, governors, and high-ranking military officers of the Russian Empire set off for Mosk immediately.
This was the coronation of the new tsar, so they naturally couldn't be absent. Otherwise, if the new Tsar was dissatisfied with their absence and even removed them from their posts, they would be killed. Then, their losses would be huge!
Moreover, everyone knew that although Grand Duke Michael was young, he was intelligent. At the same time, they were ruthless and naturally did not dare to disobey his orders.
On June 24th, 1796, Grand Duke Michael was crowned emperor in the Mosque Cathedral under the leadership of the Orthodox Church's archbishop, becoming the new Tsar of the Russian Empire. According to the naming rules of the Tsar of the Romanov Dynasty, he was called Michael II. This was because the first Tsar of the Romanov Dynasty was Michael I.
The governors, generals, and envoys of the Russian Empire all witnessed this historic moment.
