Li Xiao felt very strange, because in the memory of his predecessor, his father Igor rarely taught him such serious lessons, and he basically did not talk about his grievances with Nicholas I's family, let alone missions, responsibilities, and revenge.
He was completely raised as an ordinary person. Suddenly, he said many words that he had never heard before, which he couldn't accept.
Old Igor also saw Li Xiao's confusion and explained softly: "In the past, you were too young, so I was afraid that you would be too rash and make mistakes and get into trouble. After all, the tyrant had arranged for the third party's henchmen to secretly monitor our every move.
One move or the slightest mistake will lead to disaster... But today it seems that you have grown up, and your behavior tonight will definitely make it impossible for us to continue pretending, so I must tell you these words. I hope you
Don't let me down, don't let me down, and don't let down the hard work of those people who have been secretly protecting and waiting for you. For now, just bow your head and be patient and make preparations. I believe that day is not too far away!"
In fact, there is no need for old Igor to tell Li Xiao that he is going to pretend to be a grandson. After all, he is not the kind of super hero who is so heroic that he does not care about life and death. He is just a lo-fi, facing the life-threatening threat brought by absolute power and oppression.
It is an instinctive reaction to be humble and save one's life. However, he still wants to know how big the power is behind him. If he can use these people immediately, he believes that with his "wisdom" and "vision" as a time traveler, he can definitely change the situation of being passively beaten.
It's just that Li Xiao can't tell his own advantages, and old Igor won't believe him if he tells him. Instead, he might think he's crazy. So someone's ambitions can only be tolerated for the time being, and they can only slowly show their own.
He has gained trust in his ability and value. I believe that if he performs well, old Igor's friends will soon come to visit him again.
Li Xiao said "firmly": "Okay, Dad, I will be patient. I also believe that day will not be too far away!"
Old Igor nodded happily: "That's right, young master. Go and rest quickly. Your transfer order will come out tomorrow, and you will have to endure hardships for the next period of time!"
Transfer order? What the hell is that?
Li Xiao was a little confused and asked: "What transfer order?"
"Didn't the count inform you?" Old Igor was also stunned for a moment, and immediately explained: "The count is here to inform you of the news, because you have greatly offended the tyrant tonight, so you are in Pleob
The Lazhensky Guards were fired from your post. The tyrant didn't want to see you hanging around him anymore, so he ordered you to be transferred to the 748th Naval Infantry Regiment as company commander."
Igor was very angry about this, and seemed to have objections to someone who could only be a small company commander, as if this was a silent humiliation. But to Li Xiao, this was neither a humiliation nor a bad thing.
Obrazhensky Guards Regiment Although he has the rank of captain, he is actually just a big soldier standing guard. He is always being called around and treated like a dog. That is without dignity. Now I finally leave.
In that damn place, he could still be a real officer and have subordinates to work for him. What a great job! He couldn't wish for it!
However, Li Xiao did not dare to show too much joy. After all, old Igor was still watching. The old man's indignant expression was not fake. Obviously, for the natives of this era, this position should not be worthwhile.
It's a good job to celebrate with flowers, he'd better be honest and enjoy it secretly by himself!
Sure enough, when Li Xiao returned to the Winter Palace to take up his post the next day, the transfer order came down. The information about Count Rostovtsev was really not ordinary, which shows that his identity is probably quite extraordinary. After all, this matter is at stake.
The information about Nicholas I was not something that Amao and Dog could know immediately. I am afraid that there is a companion of the count lurking around Nicholas I. This made Li Xiao feel secretly frightened, because no matter how he looked at the count, he
They are taking the route of conspiracy and rebellion. This is a tightrope to walk!
However, Li Xiao has no other choice now. He can only take one step at a time, and for the time being, the count doesn't need him to do anything. If he can leave the Winter Palace and stay away from the old naughty family, maybe the time will come.
Li Xiao was still too naive. How could Nicholas I let him go easily and make him feel better?
The reason why Nicholas I did not do anything in public before was because it was in full view of the public. He cherished feathers and wanted to save face. He could not tolerate his reputation being hit, and he could not accept being ridiculed and ridiculed by nobles all over Europe, so he could only let Li Xiao go temporarily.
But this is only temporary. He cannot tolerate an annoying fly standing under his nose. He will get angry whenever he sees someone. The last thing he wants is to chase someone away just to be out of sight and out of mind.
Good choice.
If you can drive someone away and give them an extremely disgusting job that makes them uncomfortable, then that is obviously a better choice. And the 748th Marine Infantry Regiment is such a disgusting unit.
This regiment is filled with hooligans, gangsters, escaped and captured serfs, hard labor prisoners, and lazy and degenerate aristocratic children. It is a tainted atmosphere from top to bottom, and its bad discipline and bad style are unparalleled in the entire army. More than once.
There have been incidents of mass casualties caused by internal fighting, and a separate booklet can be published on the officers and soldiers who died in the regiment.
Obviously, Nicholas I very much hoped that Li Xiao would be included in the booklet soon. It would make him very happy, and maybe he would be able to favor a few more beauties if he was happy! So he was very happy about this decision for himself.
People with great ideas are also very satisfied.
"Count, your suggestion is very good. A bad guy like Grand Duke Andrei Konstantinlovitch should be sent to the 748th Regiment for a good training. I believe this will be very helpful to him and the empire!"
Count Rostovtsev bowed slightly and replied without taking any credit: "Your Majesty, it is my honor to serve you!"
Li Xiao would never have imagined that Count Rostovtsev was the mysterious man who saved him on the ceremonial stage, nor would he have thought that he would suggest that Nicholas I get him the 748th regiment for training. He would never have thought that this
The count turned out to be Nicholas I's confidant!
It's magical, right? In fact, this is not the first time he has been so magical. The earlier time was in the winter of 1825, when Nicholas I and his brother Grand Duke Constantine were playing football against the throne, he was magical once
.
As mentioned before, in addition to the miraculous event that the emperor's position became a hot potato that winter, there was also the sudden uprising of the Decembrists. This uprising against Nicholas I, or the Tsarist autocratic system, was eventually suppressed.
The "evil" was hanged in front of the Peter and Paul Fortress, and the remaining hundreds of accomplices were either exiled or served hard labor.
There are some famous figures among them, such as Duke Trubetskoy, and Prince Sergei Volkonsky, who was highly praised by the literary giant Tolstoy. But in fact, there is another famous figure here, that is
