It should be said that King George VI can be said to be the king of England, because he has an older brother who "does not love the country and loves beauty" - Edward Albert Christian George Andrew Patrick David (Edward VIII). Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

George VI was not only King of England, but also the last Emperor of India (1936-1947), the last King of Ireland (1936-1949), and the only Dominion King of India (1947-1949). Before he succeeded to the throne, he also held the titles of Duke of York, Earl of Inverness, and Baron Killarney.

Lin Jun only knew that the king's brother was "very famous" and did not have much impression of George VI, and the "knowledge" about the British royal family told him by the etiquette instructor really gave him a headache, and the "damned" social etiquette and "dance lessons" almost "forced" him to the "brink of collapse".

"No wonder those royal and aristocratic guys look a little weird! That's all driven crazy! Lin Jun sighed alone.

The Soviet envoy to England to observe the coronation of King George VI was Orlov, commander of the 1st class fleet and commander of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, and he had already left for Britain on the battleship "Marat" in advance. This time, Lin Jun was the deputy envoy of the delegation, and he and his entourage would fly to London to meet Orlov.

As soon as the night of May 1 fell, Lin Jun found that there were already etiquette instructors from the Ministry of Internal Affairs waiting for him, and his wife was surrounded by a group of "high-class tailors".

Vukinskaya already knew about the visit to England, and her interest was high: it should be said that every woman had a "desire" to go to London to "go shopping".

After being "tortured" by the etiquette instructor for several hours, Lin Jun collapsed on the bed while his wife tried on the jewelry sent to him in the room.

"Andre, do you want to bring so much jewelry to England?"

"Take them all, let Snolnik keep them when the time comes, these jewels can buy half of Siberia, let him look at me and rest assured."

"Hehe, it's not as exaggerated as you said, if you really count the money, all the jewelry they sent together is not as expensive as that necklace."

"By the way, I have already told Comrade Stalin about the ancestral jewels in our family, and this time you will also bring that necklace, and you can match it when the time comes."

"Yes."

Women, especially beautiful women, would love the ruby necklace, and the woman who owns it will definitely be the "center" of the ball: Vuginskaya is a beautiful woman, and she is no exception.

"Later, the Kremlin called and asked us to go to Comrade Stalin's again tomorrow to promote me to the rank and to award you another medal."

"Is it the Lenin medal that was set on fire?" Lin Jun thought. Stalin said: his "solidified ******" is worth a Lenin Medal. And Vukinskaya's current military rank is a third-class military doctor, that is, equivalent to an ordinary captain, and it is normal to promote her rank, but her husband is Andrei Nikolayevich Plunyakov, otherwise it is impossible to promote the rank of a captain directly to the Kremlin.

But Lin Jun was wrong, Stalin awarded him not his third Lenin Medal at all, and the number of important people who watched the award ceremony was completely beyond Lin Jun's imagination: all the important people in Moscow were all there! Moreover, the content of the commendation order read by Kalinin covers almost all the "merits" of Lin Jun in the past few years, and the biggest reason for this award is that he was originally "owed" to him: a brilliant victory of 8-76 in Spain; There is also his "trick" of "arson" and his "purge" of the Yagoda rebel group.

But everyone knows that without Stalin's instructions, Andrei's "merits" would not have been honored several times on this basis, because this time in the name of the Presidium of the Central Executive Committee, the highest award was awarded to the senior commander of the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army of Comrade Andrei Nikolayevich Plunyakov: the weapon of revolutionary honor inlaid with the Order of the Red Banner - the "Red Banner Sabre"! And this honor has not been awarded to anyone for many years, and now those who possess the weapon of revolutionary honor can be counted on one hand. (There were two weapons of revolutionary honor in the Soviet Union: the "Red Banner Saber" and the "Red Banner Pistol", but only one of them was awarded.) ）

When Lin Jun received the Red Banner saber from Stalin's hands with both hands, he really couldn't say a word -- all the people who possessed it were pioneers of communism, great revolutionaries, who had made great contributions and proud achievements in the October Revolution and the Civil War, and now he was like in a dream.

For Vukinskaya's military rank promotion was much simpler, she was awarded the rank of 2nd class military doctor, equivalent to major, and was also awarded the Order of Honor. And the reason for this is that its superb surgical medical skills contributed to the Soviets.

Compared with himself, Lin Jun believes that his wife's promotion and award are "taken for granted", because her medical skills are good, and she is also conscientious and meticulous in her daily work, and she is definitely qualified to be awarded such an honor. Of course, he also understood: there were many good doctors in the USSR, but the female doctor whose husband was Andrei Nikolayevich Prenyakov was only one of Vukinskaya.

The award ceremony was solemn but simple, and it was over after a while, and Stalin did not talk to Lin Jun alone again, but only said to him: "Take it with you when you go to England." ”

There was a person who hid behind the crowd and watched Lin Jun during the whole process of the award ceremony, he was really happy that Andre could be awarded such an honor, and Lin Junneng was awarded the "Red Flag Saber" also has something to do with him, he is Alexander.

A few days ago, Stalin asked him about the social problems of some Western military officers, and as an "old Cheka", Alexander was quite clear about this issue. At that time, he did not think too much about it, because Orlov's appointment as a special envoy had already been decided, and his brother was likely to be in charge of Tukhachevsky's affairs, and it was impossible to have anything to do with the visit. One of the points in the conversation involved the issue of personal weapons: Alexander told Stalin that on that occasion many officers of Western countries would carry ceremonial sabers or sabers, which were also internationally accepted, and of course guns could not be carried, and that the senior officers of those countries generally had special ceremonial sabers or ceremonial swords, and the workmanship was very elaborate and exquisite.

Alexander's words made Stalin think of a problem: although Andrei had the dagger of a flying officer, it was not the standard equipment of all pilots in the army, that is to say, some pilots had and some did not, it all depended on how much logistics was given, and those pilots often did not take it seriously, and some were sent to the bottom of the box; Stylistically, there are no more beautiful swords and swords than those of capitalist countries, and the ceremonial swords and swords - this is absolutely not good!

There is also the fact that senior officers of the infantry and artillery of the Soviet Army (above the division level) are generally equipped with parade sabers, and the appearance style is also good, but Andrei is a pilot, and it is not suitable for this.

Stalin wanted Andrei to go to London to overwhelm those "capitalist officers and youths" in all aspects, so even the divisional commander's dress prepared for Lin Jun's visit was a special 1937-style senior commander's dress, which did not feel "loose" after being worn, and aesthetically comparable to the uniform of a senior officer in any country, and the cost of one set of military uniforms could even be more expensive than three existing sets of marshal's uniforms -- Stalin never thought of mass-producing it for the senior commanders in the troops. This is simply a group of designers designed for Lin Jun alone, and it is estimated that this dress will also become "out of print".

The "love generals" under his command can comprehensively overwhelm the young officers of the capitalist countries in terms of temperament, appearance, military exploits, and even their wives, and Stalin can be completely sure of this, so he must not "lose" in the item of sidearms!

"That Alexander is not saying that some of their ceremonial swords are uniformly equipped by the state, and those "high-level" ones are the commendations given by the army, which are generally not directly related to personal contributions. Want to look beautiful and sophisticated? We have that too! And it is the highest Soviet award for a senior officer! Although it has not been awarded for more than ten years, it is still too late to rush to work immediately! This is what Stalin thought, otherwise Lin Jun would have gone to London with Orlov on the "Marat" before Labor Day.

In this way, the Cold Weapons Factory of the Red Army, located on the outskirts of Moscow, received an urgent secret order: to secretly make a "Red Banner Saber" within 5 days.

The leadership of the cold weapons factory and a group of old mechanics with the best technology fought a difficult "battle"! The "Red Flag Sabre" has long been discontinued (a few were produced more than 10 years ago), and now there are only a special "Red Flag Medal" logo on a saber treasured in the safe, and the complete shape of the Red Flag Saber can only look at the inventory drawings and photos, so you can't ask those comrades to borrow it! Fortunately, a few veteran technicians participated in the manufacture of the "Red Flag Saber" that year, and the technical indicators brought from above this time were slightly different from before, and the comrades completed it on the fourth day.

It is too late to make it now, fortunately its prototype is the 1881 type "Chasik" cavalry saber, although the factory has long been converted to the production of 1927 type cavalry saber, but there are still some "stocks" in the warehouse, and the comrades selected the best quality from it, disassembled and used it for modification. The new technical indicators require "gorgeous atmosphere", and the previous difference, the copper part of the handle and scabbard is not the original gold plating technology, but requires the outer layer of gold to be worn every day under the premise of wearing for 50 years can not fade, and can not lose the original weight balance point of the knife, can not be too heavy, that is to say, can not use pure gold to create the handle. The comrades of the factory re-filed and sharpened all the metal accessories (except for the blade), and then added a layer of gold more than 1 mm thick with the gold-filled process, and the scabbard was also newly made, and all the processes were manually operated, even if it was used for decades, there would be no problem、、、、、、

In this way, Lin Jun had a red flag saber that countless other high-ranking Soviet officials were envious and "jealous" of.
