Although Li Xiao's activities in Hungary were hidden, they were not kept secret internally. Not only good friends like Leonid and Alexey knew about it, but also Duke Alexander and Duke Mikhail.
It's not that Li Xiao is distracted, but he knows that it's best to talk to these two about some things, otherwise it will cause misunderstandings or gaps. Especially the things he did in Hungary are a bit sensitive, and it depends on him alone.
With a few friends, it’s impossible to hide it completely.
This requires powerful people like Duke Mikhail and Duke Alexander to wipe the butt. Li Xiao believes that these two are also willing to help wipe the butt!
Therefore, he did not hide anything and gave a general account of Hungary's arrangements and actions. Even Duke Mikhail was dumbfounded.
He looked Li Xiao up and down several times, very suspicious that someone was lying.
"These are absolutely true and well-documented things," Li Xiao replied obediently, "I did this to create some trouble for Duke Paskovich, so as to save him from giving it to the Hungarians with three strikes, five divided by two.
If you fall down, it won't be a problem for us at all!"
Duke Mikhail smiled bitterly: "But you are too courageous. If this old guy Paskovich knows that you sold weapons to the Hungarians, he will definitely tear you alive!"
Although Duke Mikhail spoke harshly, the smile on his face was not fake. He was willing to pay for anything that would cause trouble for Paskovich. Of course, the premise was that he could do it as neatly and beautifully as Li Xiao.
Duke Mikhail asked slightly curiously: "Then what are you going to do next?"
"Hurry up and get rid of the last batch of arms, get the money back, and then watch the Austrians and Paskovich have a headache. It's enough to get involved in Hungary's affairs, and it's pointless to add more... The most important thing
It’s better for you to hurry up, otherwise it will be useless no matter how much I do over there!”
Duke Mikhail nodded with satisfaction. Li Xiao's answer showed that he was not dizzy because of the temporary success. Hungary's affairs are too sensitive. You can get involved but you can't get involved blindly. If Li Xiao doesn't know how to advance or retreat, continue
If he messes around, it will be easy to expose his mistakes. When the time comes, the Austrians and Paskovich will really not forgive him lightly. Everything is too much and too little is too much. Now it is quite good.
But when it came to the current war situation, Duke Mikhail suddenly sighed again: "You are indeed a troublemaker. If you cause trouble for me, even if you are in Hungary, the tail you left behind will give me a headache!"
Li Xiao was a little confused, because he really didn't have any tail left to cause trouble for Duke Mikhail. Looking at the sad expression on the old man's face, it didn't seem to be fake. What the hell was it?
"That set of offensive tactics developed by Leonid? Are you the instigator?"
Li Xiao was confused by these words. He could no longer remember what offensive tactics he had used. Seeing Li Xiao in a daze, Duke Mikhail reminded him angrily: "It's the same kind of digging trenches, digging holes, and burying explosives."
Obscene tactics!"
Now that Li Xiao has said that, does he remember? How long ago did he propose such a tactic? However, he later went completely into intelligence and secret work and had completely forgotten about this tactic.
He asked with some anxiety: "Isn't this easy to use? It shouldn't be..."
Duke Mikhail snorted: "Is it easy to use? But the progress is too slow. Although this set of tactics greatly reduces casualties, it also reduces the efficiency of our army in attacking the city? Otherwise, a mere Bucharest will be delayed.
So much time!”
Li Xiao could only laugh at this. He thought that Duke Mikhail was just telling lies with his eyes open. He knew very well what the Russian army's traditional attack tactics were. Either use artillery or kill people? Or both?
Get up? And even if you encounter a really strong fortress here, you are often unable to do anything.
When fighting the Turks for so many years, they often failed to attack the city and then they were exhausted, so they had to retreat.
As for saying that the new tactics delayed the efficiency of capturing Bucharest, is that even more nonsense? Historically, Duke Mikhail was unable to defend Bucharest. After laying siege for a while, he gave up treatment.
Obviously this city is not so easy to win? At least there is no way to rely on the Russian army’s traditional head-on-head tactics. Judging from what Duke Mikhail means now, the offensive is steadily unfolding? It’s better than in history. I don’t know.
How much, this is the power of the new tactics!
But this method is of no use to the old stubborn? Duke Mikhail still insisted: "Our traditional attack tactics are better! That's what a hard-blooded man should do? Instead of digging holes all day long like a mouse? Where is this?
He looks like a soldier!"
Li Xiao was too lazy to talk nonsense with him. He felt that Duke Mikhail was eating dates for free and was too big a core: "Since you don't like the new tactics so much, then just change back to the old tactics! You are the commander-in-chief, who else can
I can’t go against you!”
Who would have thought that it would be a good thing if Li Xiao didn't say this, but when he mentioned Duke Mikhail, he immediately puffed up his beard and glared: "Who said no one is going against me? Now not only my nephew is going against me, but also my deputy commander-in-chief La
General Zarev also opposed me, and that Yermolov, these guys opposed me all day long, urging me to use traditional tactics, and even prepared to promote this set of wretched tactics to the entire army.
Tell me, should I be happy?"
Li Xiao miscalculated. If Duke Mikhail was the only one, no one could stop him from changing back to traditional tactics. But now his nephew, his deputy commander-in-chief, and his appointed chief of staff are all
Strongly opposed, especially since the latter two are highly respected, even he must be polite. Can you tell me how he can be depressed?
This was something that Li Xiao could not estimate at all, because he felt that even if Leonid supported the new tactics, it would not have much effect. Although this guy is the nephew of Duke Mikhail, he is only a regiment leader after all.
That is to say, it is only for 748 group use, and it is impossible to promote it.
But he never expected that the 748th Regiment would be so effective. It only took a week and minimal casualties to capture the fortified Buftea. This made Commander-in-Chief Duke Mikhail and Deputy Commander-in-Chief Lazarev
The general and chief of staff Yermolov took a strong interest.
Especially the latter two, who have a relatively strong humanistic spirit and hate the traditional head-on-head tactics, so once they find out that the 748th Regiment's new tactics are so effective, what are they waiting for? Even if Duke Mikhail doesn't support it, then he has to
