Struggle in Russia

Baron Klimov was surprised. He stared at Boris' eyes and looked left and right, but he couldn't see any sign that the other party was lying. The other party's eyes were clear and bright, and it was obvious that this was the truth.

Baron Klimov couldn't figure it out. Daniel, this fellow, has a lot of connections behind it. Abolishing him is a big deal. If he were Boris, he would never help carry the blame. , I really can't bear it, okay?

But Boris took the blame calmly and calmly. Is this kid stupid?

Baron Kerimov didn't think Boris was an idiot after watching him. Could it be that this kid also has a backer? And it's bigger?

In a sense, Baron Klimov's guess was correct, but it was not entirely true. Because neither Lazarev, Kornilov nor the brothers of Duke Gorshkov and Count Rostovtsev in St. Petersburg are not the kind of backer and backer he thought.

Although these adults would support and help Li Xiao and the others for various reasons, they would never support them directly, at most they would give some indirect support. It is impossible to rely entirely on them.

The correct approach is to forge iron and you need to be strong yourself. First of all, you must be strong enough to not give the enemy a chance to kill him with a stick. You must drag them into the fight, so that they will help indirectly.

The reason why Boris is so calm is that he has experienced too many winds and rains before. He has seen a series of slapstick operations by someone, and he is full of confidence in Li Xiao. Shady because someone is more shady than them. Secondly, I also feel that the reason why Baron Klimov and his daughter were involved is also because of my side.

If it weren't for him, Daniel and his group wouldn't be eyeing the baron and his daughter, so being emotional and reasonable would be regarded as implicating them, and it is incumbent on them to help solve a little trouble.

However, Baron Klimov was still very moved: "Lieutenant, you are the best and most respectable young man I have ever seen... I owe you a favor for this incident, as long as there is someone who can help you place, you just have to open your mouth! We advance and retreat together!"

"You are too polite Baron, we should have implicated you, so please don't mind, this is what we should do."

Boris and Baron Klimov were very polite for a while, and if Boris didn't have too many things at hand and needed him to deal with them, the two of them could be polite for a day. However, after such an encounter, the relationship between the two parties has become much closer, and they feel a little bit of sympathy for each other.

"Father, what were you and Lieutenant Boris talking about just now? Why can't I understand a word! Is there something wrong with these bandits?"

Facing Paphra's question,

Baron Kerimov was a little speechless: You just realized that something is wrong?

It’s just that what made Baron Klimov even more speechless was still behind, because Pafra immediately went on to say: “Are these thieves planning to harm Lieutenant Boris? Then you can’t just sit by and watch, I think Lieutenant Boris is a good man , to help us out, he is also very good at fighting, and he is also very responsible..."

A series of endless praises came out of Pafra's mouth, and Baron Klimov was a little jealous. He was the only old father that this good daughter talked about before, but now Boris is the only one left. ? Could this be the legendary girl who is extroverted!

Baron Kerimov sighed in his heart, feeling a little sad that his cabbage was about to be stolen by pigs, but it was only a matter of a moment, and soon his thinking returned to the right track, and he was not thinking about these things right now When the time comes, we have to settle the business first.

He told the housekeeper very seriously: "Ivan, get ready the carriages and horses immediately, I'm going to Izmail!"

Pafra blinked his big blue eyes and asked, "Father, are you going to ask Uncle Alexander Mikhailovich for help?"

Baron Klimov sighed: "Yes, now I can only ask him for help with a shy face, and only he can help!"

Alexander Mikhailovich Trubetskoy is an old friend of Baron Klimov. The two have known each other for more than 30 years. They have carried guns and picked up girls together, and even experienced life and death together. Said to be an irreversible friend.

Some judges may want to ask, since the relationship between the two parties is so good, why does Baron Klimov seem reluctant to ask this good friend for help?

There is a reason for this, because Alexander Mikhailovich has a special status. In fact, friends who are familiar with Russian history will know his surname Trubetskoy. is related.

In fact, this is also the case. This Alexander Mikhailovich is the illegitimate son of the Duke Trubetskoy. Trubetskoy, nicknamed the dictator, was elected by the Decembrists as the supreme leader. The duke is unparalleled in prestige. According to the internal opinion of the Decembrists, after the successful rebellion, the duke would replace the Romanovs as rulers of Russia.

Of course, the Decembrists failed, and the Duke of Trubetskoy was naturally exposed, which really made Nicholas I furious. Because the status of Duke Trubetskoy is too special. He was a good friend of Nicholas I and a cabinet minister back then. It can be said that he was one of the most trusted people of the Romanov family.

Think about how Nicholas I felt when he heard that the most important official of his good friend's family chose to betray. In any case, the Duke was finally sent into exile together with Prince Volkonsky, deprived of all titles and honors.

As the illegitimate son of Duke Trubetskoy, Alexander Mikhailovich was inevitably implicated, but this illegitimate son did not choose to row with Duke Trubetskoy. Clearing the boundaries, he took the initiative to change his surname to Trubetskoy. Obviously, this is to follow his father as an example. It is equivalent to challenging Nicholas I.

Therefore, Alexander Mikhailovich's military career was also very difficult and bumpy. Although he was good at fighting, although he was brave and fearless, and although he made many military exploits, it was very difficult to be promoted. If it weren't for Trubetskoy The Duke's old relationship is still a little bit, and he helped take care of him a little bit, so it is impossible for him to be promoted to a general in his life.

Even so, Alexander Mikhailovich took twice as long as the average person to be promoted to Brigadier General, and now he is commanding a reserve artillery unit in Izmail.

And Baron Kerimov is very considerate of his old friend's difficulty. If he hadn't been helpless, he really didn't want to cause trouble for his old friend. Being able to force him to find Alexander Mikhailovich is enough to show the situation in his heart. How serious and nasty it is.
