In the violent explosion, Golitsyn's carriage turned into a pile of rotten wood. It was almost impossible for anyone to survive such an explosion. The assassin leader glanced at his companions who fell in a pool of blood and coldly issued new instructions:
"Quiet!"
Viscount Prozolov sternly told him that this operation must be flawless and no one who could leak the information would be allowed to exist.
Fierce gunfire rang out again, but this time the target was no longer Golitsyn's frame or bodyguards, but the assassins who had launched a brave charge before. The few poor people wailing in a pool of blood suddenly let out even more shrill screams.
, they were either stunned or yelling, but no matter what they did, it was of no use, because their fate had already been decided.
"retreat!"
Seeing the last survivor swallowing his breath unwillingly, the assassin leader gave the order to retreat without hesitation. At the other end of the road, the city defense patrol on horseback was already vaguely visible.
“It came pretty quickly!”
The assassin leader snorted and turned around without hesitation. He was not being sarcastic, but compared to the patrols in Russia, Bucharest's city defense troops were indeed fast. Generally speaking, in China, patrols
The police or military police basically only collect corpses, and it is impossible to expect them to arrest criminals.
Of course, the performance of Bucharest's city defense troops was only slightly better. They almost watched the assassins escape without a trace, as if they just came to watch a show.
"All dead?" the leader asked in a low voice.
"Absolutely. The assassin was very brutal and even used bombs!"
"Tsk..."
The captain has a headache, because the Governor's Office has repeatedly emphasized the high degree of control over contraband such as arms since three years ago. Not to mention explosives, even old-fashioned matchlocks are not allowed to be owned by the private sector. There have been more than one confiscation campaign and various strict measures before.
Land investigation, and now the assassins not only have guns but also bombs. This is simply mocking the incompetence of their city defense army, okay?
The only thing that makes the captain feel lucky is that he does not need to bear the blame. Fortunately, Count Vladimir is ill. He fell ill at the right time. Even if the governor is angry, he cannot drag him out unconscious to criticize him!
The poor captain actually only guessed right. Count Vladimir fell ill at the right time, and he did escape. But the city defense army was not so lucky. Alexey could not find Vladimir
For Earl Mill's trouble, you can also find trouble with the deputy, and you can also find trouble with the person in charge of the city defense army who is responsible for clearing away prohibited items. In short, this responsible city defense army cannot escape, and someone must be responsible for it.
Alexey was indeed very angry. After the incident happened, he immediately found the relevant persons responsible and gave them a stern lesson, scolding these guys like hell.
"Actually, there's no point in scolding them." Fontana, who was pregnant with her belly, sighed and advised.
Alexei just looked at her but didn't speak. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was still very angry.
Fontana added: "The city defense army only has a few thousand people in total. It is impossible for them to cover all aspects of Bucharest in such a big city... And to be honest, as long as those who are thoughtful can avoid the previous collection operations, the city defense army is
…”
Alexey finally interrupted her: "I'm not angry with the city defense army. I know that their capabilities are limited, and they have tried their best when Leonid was here... What makes me angry is their lazy attitude.
, this bastard Vladimir has only been in office for a short time, and they have become so lazy. I don’t believe that they would be really serious and let the assassins be so arrogant!"
Alexei snorted heavily as he spoke: "A Marquis of an empire was assassinated by a group of assassins in Bucharest in broad daylight. What is the nature of this? What would His Majesty think if he heard it? I said before that Bucharest has good security.
, is this what good public security looks like?”
Fontana held her belly and stopped talking. She knew how much pressure Alexey was under, and the nature of this matter was indeed a bit too bad, but the moment was really not suitable to hold on to the city defense army. Who would let that happen?
Count Vladimir was ill at the wrong time?
If the doctors hadn't told her that Count Vladimir's condition was very serious and he couldn't be pretending to be ill, she would have suspected that this count was responsible for all this.
But the count was really ill, and not only seriously ill, which made her confused. Moreover, she probably knew the background of Marquis Golitsyn, so who would kill him?
Based on who gained the most benefit, the murderer should be someone belonging to Crown Prince Alexander, but Fontana knew very well that unless the crown prince was kicked in the head by a donkey, it would be impossible to deal with Golitsyn.
All this was like a messy ball of wool, and Fontana couldn't find the end of the thread at all. As she thought about it, she felt dizzy and her body began to sway.
Alexey quickly hugged her: "Don't think about these messy things. Your task now is to cultivate with peace of mind!"
But Fontana had no time to spare. She frowned and asked, "What did Grand Duke Andrei say?"
Alexei sighed and said: "He is still at the scene. I will wait for him to come back and then talk..."
Fontana nodded, but she didn't know that Alexey had been waiting for more than an hour, and it was already late at night when Li Xiao arrived at the Governor's Mansion.
"I knew you couldn't sleep!"
Alexey looked at Li Xiao who looked relaxed and sighed: "Except for such a big thing, if I could fall asleep, it would be two hundred and fifty more!"
Li Xiao shrugged and said, "Actually, it's not that big of a deal..."
Alexei interrupted him directly and said with a wry smile: "Isn't it big? Isn't it nothing if a marquis dies? Is it a big deal if the Governor's Palace is bombed?"
Li Xiao actually wanted to tell him that even if the Governor's Mansion was bombed, it would not be a big deal. Compared with the real big events, these are just child's play. However, he also knew how nervous Alexei was now and was not suitable for continued stimulation.
He did.
He replied slowly: "Relax, let me take care of all these things!"
Alexey sighed again and asked: "Is Marquis Golitsyn dead? I heard that the carriages were blown to pieces and the streets were filled with blood..."
"The scene is indeed ugly!" Li Xiao replied calmly, "Many people died, but there is still a long way to go to rivers of blood!"
Alexey looked at him suspiciously and asked puzzledly: "Are you really not nervous at all? Why do I think you seem so relaxed?"
