But Li Xiao had no intention of going to the headquarters. Why would he go there? Are he asking for trouble? He is not that stupid!
Li Xiao knew very well what his current status was. The last thing Duke Mikhail wanted to see now was for him to continue to shine and be in the limelight. After all, it was difficult to explain to Nicholas I, wasn't it?
Moreover, Li Xiao also saw that the Duke actually wanted to hone and train Leonid more, give Leonid more opportunities to perform, and let him shine. If he, Leonid's subordinate, is better than
It's a big bad thing if the chief is more in the limelight.
Naturally, Prince Mikhail had the idea of suppressing him. If he didn't know what to do and got involved in everything and made the limelight, then he had no consciousness.
In fact, Li Xiao himself knows that there is no need to be in the limelight at this time. His abilities are already known to senior generals such as Duke Mikhail, Duke Alexander and Lazarev. There will definitely be opportunities for him in the future, so there is no need to rush.
For a while.
What's more, what's the use of continuing to show off at this time other than to make Nicholas I hate and hold a grudge? It's better to calmly give in and give more opportunities to the friends around him. With his relationship with Leonid, that guy is even more
Will you forget him in the future if you go further?
So Li Xiao said to Alexey very calmly: "Don't worry, my friend. In fact, I have already vaguely reminded the Duke before, and I am not suitable to make this suggestion for the time being. If you are worried, you must go.
, then go yourself and tell the Duke that this is your concern, but don't mention me, how about it?"
Alexey was stunned, wondering what Li Xiao meant by this, and why he was so mysterious and hesitant. Is there a hidden secret?
Alexey is still more sensitive than Leonid in this aspect, and he has been through many hardships in the third part, and he knows the ways of the world, so he has some understanding very soon.
After hesitating again and again, he asked carefully: "The Duke has a problem with you being in the limelight?"
Li Xiao smiled and said: "It's not that I have any objections, but I'm a little worried about violating taboos. After all, my uncle doesn't want me to come home in glory or anything like that..."
Alexey looked at Li Xiao and then sighed. He knew that Li Xiao's words were half true and half false. Duke Mikhail was worried that Nicholas I might have it, but it was definitely not the main reason. I'm afraid the real reason was himself.
The interests dictate.
However, there was Leonid in the middle, so it was hard for Alexei to complain about his uncle. The palms and backs of his hands were all flesh, so he could only comfort him: "Maybe the Duke has too many concerns, and it's not easy for him either."
...I will convey your suggestions to the Duke in private and in a subtle way, and I will not do anything to take credit!"
Li Xiao actually didn't care about this little achievement, but no matter how much he tried to persuade Alexei, he still refused to agree? In desperation, he had no choice but to let him go.
After two days of rectification, Bucharest finally restored a little order. The fire points in the city were extinguished one by one, and the remaining National Guards were arrested one by one. Although the streets were still depressed, Duke Mikhail
No longer caring so much, he immediately ordered a city entry ceremony to celebrate this great victory.
As groups of soldiers marched neatly into Bucharest, the rebellion that lasted for nearly a year finally came to an end. Duke Mikhail, riding on a tall horse, walked through the streets and alleys under the escort of groups of soldiers.
Completely like a conqueror.
Although the entry ceremony was not grand, it made Duke Mikhail very comfortable. Because in the east and south of Bucharest, the Turks were firmly blocked from Bucharest, and the honor of this conqueror was completely lost to him.
Exclusively.
The Turks were actually very unwilling, and they naturally wanted a share of the pie. But under the mistaken attack of the fierce reconnaissance firepower organized by Duke Mikhail, these sick men of the Near East could only surrender honestly and did not dare to take a step further.
Of course, there will be no shortage of verbal protests. The Russian Embassy in Turkey has been notified twice by Turkey. Turkey angrily protested Duke Mikhail's ugly behavior of abandoning the Allied forces' private actions and demanded that Russia immediately correct its mistakes and truly implement them.
agreement reached between the two countries
But everyone knows that such protests are useless? For Nicholas I, there were only two biggest enemies in his life - one was France and the other was Turkey. As long as he could make his enemies unhappy, he would be very happy.
Naturally, he admired Duke Mikhail's behavior very much. For the first time, he praised the Duke greatly at the imperial meeting: "... What if everyone can be as reliable as Mikhail? It is necessary to destroy Turkey and regain the Holy City.
It’s just around the corner!”
Immediately, the sycophants in the Imperial Council also agreed, saying that the reason why Duke Mikhail was able to do so well was entirely because of Nicholas I's good leadership.
But not everyone is happy? Neserrode is the one who is not very happy, because it is his Ministry of Foreign Affairs who helped wipe the butt and was blocked by Turkey in protest. It means that Duke Mikhail took all the benefits.
? But I left all the trouble of wiping my butt to him.
When had Neserrodie ever been so cowardly? He was the only one who took advantage of others? How could he endure being given a free vote?
When the constant stream of flattery gradually subsided, he reminded carefully: "Prince Mikhail did a very good job indeed. He solved the problems of Wallachia and Moldavia neatly, and also...
Together with Turkey, he has greatly increased the country's prestige and military power. He is worthy of being our country's leading famous general!"
How else can I say that Neserrode is an old fox? This is where he is cunning. He knows very well that in the current atmosphere, if he stupidly stands up and directly reports on Prince Mikhail, then Nikki
Ra I will neither be happy nor listen, and the sycophants next to him will immediately attack him. There is no point in doing so.
If you want to slander someone in front of your boss or snitch on someone, you have to do the opposite. First, you have to ask someone to tell you that you are not snitching. You have to say good things about the person first. This way you can hide your true intentions.
.
Then you have to find a way to provoke someone's enemies. It's best to use clever means to flatter someone's superiors and suppress their inferiors, so that these enemies can help you get the first shot.
Neserrode played very well just now. It seemed as if he made Duke Mikhail the Russian military god and praised him enthusiastically. But in fact, this was to bring hatred to Duke Mikhail.
.
It's very simple. If Duke Mikhail is Russia's leading general and the number one, what will Paskovich, Chernyshov, and Nameshikov think?
