613 Evgeny's New Job (Part I)
Evgeny stretched out and turned off the jingling alarm clock, which pointed to eight o'clock in the morning. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info was so pleased with this that he yawned again and quickly rolled over and got up.
Maybe eight o'clock in the morning is not too late for ordinary people, but for a professional soldier like Yevgeny, it is simply unthinkable to sleep until eight o'clock in the morning. During the war years, the average sleep time of each soldier per day would not exceed six hours, and these six hours were not allowed to sleep all at once, and they had to stand guard in shifts at night, right? There will be economic situations such as enemy sneak attacks or emergency dispatches.
All in all, the most basic skill of a qualified soldier in wartime is to seize all the time to sleep anytime and anywhere, preferably to snore with your eyes closed, and to die with the enemy when you open your eyes. Anyway, in those days, a good night's sleep was a luxury for soldiers.
Of course, the officers are slightly better, and they can sit in the car and stare for a while during the march, especially the middle and senior officers who can have their own cars, and their sleep is basically guaranteed. But you can't sleep well, especially when you're in a big fight, and the overwhelming pressure makes you unable to sleep even if you want to.
For example, during the siege of Istanbul before, Yevgeny, who had been promoted to lieutenant colonel, felt a lot of pressure, and the lives of three or four thousand people up and down a regiment were in his hands, and the slightest mistake would cause a large number of casualties. The pressure is really overwhelming.
Thankfully, Yevgeny survived, and his regiment was the first to enter the city of Istanbul and the first to capture the Sophia Cathedral. For his military achievements, he was awarded the second Order of the Golden Star and the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.
After the reconquest of Constantinople, Yevgeny's troops were brought back from the front line to recuperate. It is said to be a break, but in fact it is also a large-scale demobilization. A considerable number of veterans were able to return home, and another part of the long-serving officers either went to further studies or went to work in the local area.
For example, Yevgeny's old friend Fat Ivan chose to be demobilized and returned to the locality, and he will return to his hometown as a deputy county magistrate. For Fat Ivan, working in the local area is more like a fish in water, maybe he will be a deputy department level at most in his life, but the fat man is very happy, as long as he is not allowed to continue to fight, he does not have to worry about his life, he is very happy.
Fat Ivan chose to be demobilized, while the armored train chose to go to the Frunze Military Academy for further study, he still preferred to be a soldier, in his words: "I don't know any other skills except to be a soldier and fight, what can I do when I go to the place?" ā
Yevgeny believed that with the ability of the armored train, he would be able to surpass his Lao Tzu in the future, and the old man of his family was now a deputy military officer, and he would have no problem at all being a general or a general. As for the rank of marshal, it's hard to say, according to the corps. According to the latest situation in Venezuela, the rank of marshal will be an honor, and only those outstanding senior commanders who have made outstanding contributions in defending the country can receive this honor.
With the qualifications of the armored train, this is probably more difficult, unless the outbreak of the Third World War, it will be quite difficult for him to climb to the deputy military position in the next ten years.
With so many crooked chirps, what are Yevgeny's plans for his future? To tell the truth, he didn't think too much about this issue, and he joined the army more to avoid his money-worshipping mother. And now he can be mixed into a middle-level officer, to be honest, he himself was a little surprised, originally he thought that he was afraid that he would be able to be a battalion commander, but who would have thought that he would become a regiment commander.
Of course, Yevgeny also knew that the reason why he was able to rise so quickly was that he had a good uncle. There were many commanders with similar abilities and merits to him in the Red Army, but not everyone could be promoted to regiment commander so quickly. Most of them are still working in battalion-level and vice-battalion-level posts. And it is the existence of his uncle, so that the boss has always given the green light to promote him, I have to say that there are people in the court who are good officials!
However, this does not mean that Yevgeny's head is completely due to nepotism, and it can even be said that Li Xiaofeng has absolutely not hinted or instructed to order Yevgeny to be promoted. Politics. There are too many things to worry about for the members of the administrative bureau, and it is really a loss to work hard for the sake of a mere regimental level.
But things in officialdom are so interesting, the big leader doesn't say anything, it doesn't mean that the small leaders below don't figure it out, there are many people who want to pat on the back, and the chief has to make everything clear, so what's the use of you?
So even if Li Xiaofeng didn't speak and took the initiative to show favor to Yevgeny, there were more generals, even if he couldn't directly win the army. The favor of the chairman, and then Yevgeny's line with the chairman is also a very good choice, isn't it?
What's more, Yevgeny is not the kind of general relationship who is incapable and can only rely on his ancestors to be shaded, this kid is still capable. has both ability and connection, such a subordinate can be said to be the favorite of the superior.
Anyway, Yevgeny can be said to have no need to worry about the future at all, with Li Xiaofeng's age, he will belong to the core of the core of power in the next one or two decades, as long as he Yevgeny does not die, he can also mix up with high positions with step-by-step mixed qualifications.
Even this high position does not only refer to the army system, if Yevgeny wants to mix the army system, at least he will not be able to run away from the future general. If you mix well, it is not impossible for members of the Central Committee or even national-level leaders to do so, but at that level, you can't just rely on relationships, and personal ability is also quite important. In the words of Yevgeny's mother, Victoria: "The Sbelowsky family are typical nouveau riche, and without Andrei it is not worth mentioning at all." ā
Although this is ugly, it is true, Yevgeny didn't think his uncle was very good before, but when he walked out of school and entered the society and had a personal experience, he really admired his uncle. I think that when he took the technical route and ate the food of craftsmanship, it was not obvious. But his uncle embarked on a completely different path, he went into politics without graduating from university, and at the age of seventeen or eighteen he became a figure in the chaos of Russia, and won the attention of Lenin and other old revolutionaries, and he was a member of the Central Committee in his twenties, and he was a politician at the age of thirty. Member of the Governance Bureau, 45-year-old is a soldier. Chairman of the committee, and looking at this trend, the core of the next leadership must be him.
Which of the young men in Russia who had no heels like him, even those who participated in the Bolsheviks and the October Revolution, was better than him? Anyway, Yevgeny felt that he couldn't do such a feat at all, and he could deal with a group of old foxes at a young age, and I beg his forgiveness for not being able to keep up with his experience and intelligence.
But such a good uncle can also bring troubles, and Victoria said to Yevgeny more than once: "My stupid son, it is the luck of your family to meet such a capable uncle, and the relationship that no one else can hope for is simply at your fingertips...... Future? Follow in your uncle's footsteps, you won't have to worry about him in your life, even my grandson's life. Don't think about it, don't go to the army to mix, go to the place professionally, just let your uncle arrange it, what's so good about being bitter in the army? If you go to work in a local area for a few years, you will immediately become a feudal official, how good is this! ā
Yevgeny didn't think that this suggestion was not good enough, who didn't like it, but in his heart he was not willing to take such a route, he felt that he was still young, he could take a few more roads, and imprisoned himself in one field too early, how boring that life should be!
Yevgeny sighed in the mirror, the choice of the future gave him a headache, or rather he was very confused. After thinking about it for a while, he decided to go to Aunt Angelina, and the only thing that could help him now was probably this aunt.
"Don't know what to choose?" After hearing Evgeny's complaints, Angelina was happy, it was very annoying that there was no choice, but it was also very annoying to have too many choices, but in her opinion, Yevgeny's troubles were not troubles at all, and she calmly suggested: "The only advice I can give you is to ask your uncle, he is the one who can give you the right advice." ā
Yevgeny was stunned, he did not expect such an answer at all, to tell the truth he did not think of consulting the powerful uncle, with his experience and wisdom should be able to easily solve his problem. But Yevgeny was reluctant to ask Li Xiaofeng for help, why? Could it be that the relationship between the uncle and nephew is not good enough?
No, although a certain immortal can now be said to be one of the most powerful people in the Soviet Union or the world. But this does not mean that a certain immortal always carries a pair of shelves, or always maintains the majesty of a superior person. A certain immortal usually has no, and all the staff who have worked around him recall that someone is approachable and not difficult to serve at all. Even if this is the case for outsiders, it is even more impossible for a certain immortal in the family to deliberately put on a show.
In Yevgeny's memory, there was only one person in the entire family who liked to put on a show, and that was his grandfather Sbelowsky the Elder, who had been in politics since a certain immortal. After the commissioner, the old man called himself the "father of the tsar", and the old man liked this tune, believing that it was because of his godson that the Fonbelowsky family became the leading family in Russia and Northern Europe. So the old man is very willing to live on a shelf all the time, and even the old man built a palace for himself, and really regarded himself as a "royal family".
In addition to old Sbelowsky, the second person in the family who is not easy to talk to is Yevgeny's mother Victoria, this woman who fell into the eyes of money is always mercenary, and only has a good face for those who can bring her benefits, once someone has no use value, it is really abandoned like grass shoes.
Therefore, Yevgeny is really not very close to his grandfather and mother, but he can still talk about the uncle with the highest actual status in the family. And the reason why he was reluctant to ask Li Xiaofeng's opinion was also very simple, he was very worried that this uncle would give an answer similar to his mother's, because this answer was almost the most beneficial to the family.
"You're too worried," Angelina smiled, "your uncle is not that kind of person, in a sense, he doesn't care much about the interests of the family, he won't force you to make a choice, don't worry, go boldly!" ā
Even with Angelina's encouragement, Yevgeny was not too relieved, and he was very entangled in finding a certain immortal to explain his intentions.
"Options for the future?" While dodging the clutches of his youngest son, who was babbling, Li Xiaofeng asked, "What do you want to do?" ā
Yevgeny always thought that as soon as he asked this question, this uncle would give him several of the best answers, and even directly assigned an answer, without thinking at all that the answer to this question would turn out to be a rhetorical question. Uh, to be honest, he doesn't know what he wants to do?
Li Xiaofeng was happy: "You haven't even thought about what you want to do, just come and ask for my advice, okay, I guess it's your mother who keeps nagging in your ear and gives you a big idea, forcing you to have no choice, right?" ā
Yevgeny really wanted to say that he still knew me uncle, so he smiled a little embarrassedly, which was a tacit acquiescence.
Li Xiaofeng looked at him with a smile and said, "Do whatever you want, you don't live for your mother, and with your mother's financial resources, you don't need to support you." Since you don't have the pressure of life at all, why don't you take advantage of your youth to do something you want to do? For example, if you travel around the world to see the world, if you want to be lazy, you will eat and wait for two years to die......"
Well, Yevgeny really didn't expect a certain immortal to give him such an idea, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like the person who once climbed the peak of power step by step. Is this still his uncle?
"It's normal!" Li Xiaofeng shrugged his shoulders and said: "I'm interested in politics and like the feeling of being in power, so I naturally work in this direction." And you, I'm afraid, are not interested in politics, and I just force you to take this path, and I'm afraid you won't be able to achieve anything. ā
Yevgeny thought that this was very true, although people's interest will be transferred, but to do something interesting is always motivated to do something uninteresting. So what are you interested in now?
To be honest, after experiencing this war and enjoying the thrill of adrenaline, Yevgeny really had no interest in ordinary life. He wanted to do something exciting.
"If you want to play with the heartbeat, you can go to EOD," Li Xiaofeng joked, "but then your mother will come and cut me with a kitchen knife, so forget it." Li Xiaofeng touched his chin and suddenly asked, "Are you interested in intelligence work?" ā
Intelligence work? Hidden fronts?
Yevgeny was stunned at first, and then a little excited, the work seemed to his taste! (To be continued.) )
