Nine hundred and ninety-four. The Great Storm (Part I)
Grand Duke Gregory of Belstoka already had a sense of the end of his rope.
The Armenian oil fields proved to be a hoax, and his son, Ilya, who was in charge of all his property in the United States, lost contact with him completely. To exaggerate, Gregory now has no more rubles in his pocket.
And the successive betrayals of Migroski, Kim Walker and others also stabbed Gregory in the heart, and he really can't think of anyone around him who can be trusted.
Except, of course, two people are excepted.
One is his wife Solkina, and the other is his youngest daughter Ronanova.
For many years, Sorkina had succumbed to her own obscenity, and had never dared to resist anything, even if she lent her a few more dares, she would never betray herself. As for the youngest daughter, Ronanova, it was a very kind woman......
Gregory felt that he had to be prepared, or rather had to prepare for some way back......
He first summoned his wife Solkina, and then said with guilt on his face: "My dear wife, I'm sorry, I've been too strict with you all these years, if you have any grievances, even if you can be in front of me, I will definitely not be angry." I'd love to make up for all these years of my sorry ......"
"Your Excellency, why do you want to say that, is it because I have done something wrong?" Solkina's face was full of panic.
Her attitude made Gregory feel very satisfied, no matter what. She was still terribly afraid of her own ...... Fear can make people dare not resist, fear can make people obey, and fear will make the other person never betray him......
But Gregory decided to test again: "Solkina. The situation in Russia is very bad now, and there are enemies in Moscow at any time, so I want to send you abroad, which is far safer than here...... Ah, you probably know I'm having a problem, let's be honest. I don't have any money left. Except for a secret fund that I have never used, and even my son does not know about it......"
As he spoke, he pulled out a black suitcase. This suitcase Solkina never saw it.
Gregory opened the suitcase, which contained a bundle of dollars, and he pushed it in front of Solkina: "Here are 300,000 dollars, as compensation for you all these years." Get out of here with it. ”
"Nope. I can't ask for it. Solkina said in a frightened voice: "Whatever you do to me, you need more money than we do now, please take it back." ”
Gregory was extremely satisfied. If Sorkina had dared to accept the money, she would have been a dead man by now......
"Sorkina, I appreciate your loyalty." Gregory closed the suitcase: "In that case, take it and hide it in the place I have designated for you on the outskirts of Moscow, and you are not allowed to leave this suitcase for a moment, in case anything happens to Moscow." I'll find a way to meet you and leave this damn place in Russia with the money......"
Solkina nodded silently...... She knew that Gregory was not afraid to run away. Because there are two female bodyguards by his side who are constantly watching him......
This was Gregory's first life-saving money, and he gave it to Solkina, who was afraid of himself like a tiger, and then it was time for him to arrange his second life-saving money.
And this money will be given to Ronanova.
Lonanova is such a person, no matter what kind of grievances she has suffered, she can endure it, especially for her own family. For so many years, no matter how she treated this daughter, Ronanova always endured it silently and never complained.
In a way, he trusts Lonanova even more than his own son, Ilya......
It was also 300,000 US dollars, also in a black suitcase, this time Gregory did not make any temptation, but directly asked Ronanova to put it away, and left Moscow overnight, hiding in the safe house that he had prepared for a long time, and was not allowed to say goodbye to her husband and children.
Lonanova didn't ask any questions, and like Solkina, it seemed to be in their nature to be submissive......
It's just that before leaving, Ronanova finally asked: "Father, aren't you leaving with me?" ”
"No, my dear daughter, I still have something to do in Moscow." Gregory shook his head: "Those who betrayed me have not been punished, I have not lost everything, and I will never give up until the last moment." Those traitors and untouchables are trying to bring me down, and I will never let them get their way. I still have the army, and the police, and I will make the land of Moscow red with blood......"
Ronanova sighed softly, she wanted to tell her father that he had caused all this. He has become a traitor before he hates the betrayer. The real punishment has only just begun.
My father still didn't know what kind of terrible opponent Lu Dao was facing......
She didn't dare say anything more, for the baron was silently watching it all in the dark......
The two life-saving payments were settled, which made Gregory a little more relaxed, and he could not come up with a single ruble except for the $600,000......
Of course, now he can deal with those damn traitors with peace of mind!.
Anyone who betrayed him must be punished with the severest punishment, and Gregory swore that he would never let those traitors go unpunished!
At his behest, the entire army and police in Moscow were armed, ready to plunge into repression whenever and wherever they could. And not only that, but the 8th Panzer Army, the most elite Russian armed force, was also urgently transferred to Moscow.
This force, commanded by General Tangaloniv, is one of the most elite in all of Russia. It was also the unit that Gregory poured the most effort into. Gregory was reluctant to use this force unless it was absolutely necessary.
And now, that situation has finally come......
Admiral Tangoloniv remained loyal to the Grand Duke. When he entered Moscow, he did not hesitate to tell the Grand Duke that he and all the officers and men of the 8th Panzer Corps would swear allegiance to the Grand Duke and suppress any possible rebellion.
Gregory felt safe again. The ones that were lost, as long as they are still in the position of the Grand Duke, will definitely be able to get them back again...... As for the German army and the Ukrainian rebels who are advancing towards Moscow, they can always be solved in the same way. Great is just an astronomical war reparation......
In any case, the money was eventually transferred to the Russian people.
He decided to do it, desperately. And the first target was obviously the Moscow Herald, which exposed everything he had.
Gregory has decided to take the plunge. He no longer thinks about the warnings of the Americans, he no longer thinks about the condemnation of the international community, he must show his strength in front of everyone and tell everyone. Moscow - or its own Moscow!
And this task was given to his son-in-law Khmelitsky. And in order to make Khmelitsky faithfully work for himself, he also made a special promise that as long as he could complete the tasks assigned to him, then he could choose any other post of foreign minister or any other position.
Khmelitsky swore that he would protect Moscow with his life and loyalty, to protect the Grand Duke. The Moscow Herald and their editor-in-chief, Podolv, will surely be punished justly.
And the task of keeping an eye on Fristoya was given to Milosevic, and in the event of any event, Fristoia, who had great influence, would become a good hostage......
He's crazy. He's decided to do whatever it takes, even if it causes something terrible......
"As for the betrayal of my Migrosky......" Grigory's gaze fell on Similov, the captain of the guard of the Grand Duke's Guard, who had just been appointed by him: "the one who sent you." Go get all the Migroski family together, listen, all I need is everyone. ”
"Yes, Your Excellency the Grand Duke, I will do it immediately." Similov immediately responded.
"To turn Moscow into a tomb!" Gregory hissed, "Let those traitors know what happened to me if they betrayed me." From now on, no one will be allowed to leave here without my orders. All men are to be armed and ready to fight for the defense of Moscow...... Gentlemen, we will never let Moscow fall into the hands of the Germans or the Ukrainian rebels...... Let's do it! ”
As the captain of the Grand Duke's Guard, Similov's status is not high, but he is the one who is the easiest to meet the Grand Duke, and over the years, the Grand Duke has also given him a lot of benefits, and because of this, the Grand Duke is convinced that this man will be able to complete any task he has given him well.
But he probably did not expect that Similov did not rush into Mr. Migroski's club with any soldiers, but walked in alone.
The person he wanted to meet was "Mr. Petergov". In front of "Mr. Petergov", he carefully repeated the task assigned by the Grand Duke.
"You are doing well, Mr. Similov." Wang Weiyi smiled and praised him: "You know how to choose, and you also know who to be loyal to." Go back and tell Gregory that Migrosky's family has all run away and that you are actively hunting for it. Also, whatever happens in Moscow, you have to stay with Gregory, you don't leave a single step, and I have to be the first to know where he goes......"
"Yes, Mr. Petergove." Similov's heart breathed a long sigh of relief, which meant that Mr. Petergov had already considered himself a close confidant.
The sky in Russia is about to change, and at this time there is no longer any need to hang himself from the tree of the Grand Duke of Belstoka......
"See, Alice?" After watching Simirov leave, Wang Weiyi said softly to Alice: "There are many people in this world who can be bought, especially some people who seem to be loyal, they have no moral concept, and they have no bottom line of being a human being. In their hearts, interests always come first. As long as you have enough money, you can make them choose to work for you......"
Alice looked up: "Then are they all bad people?" ”
"Yes. They're all bad guys. ”
Alice nodded as if she didn't understand: "But what about the good guys?" Mom always said that there are always more good people than bad people in this world, what do you say? ”
"Yes, in my time, there were more good people than bad people." Wang Weiyi looked at her lovingly: "But now it has changed, and interests come first." Morality and the bottom line are the most illusory things, but. But we must stick to the bottom line of being human beings. We're not going to be the same bad guys as they are, but we have to know how to deal with them...... You're going to grow up someday, and you're going to face all kinds of people......"
Alice listened intently. Remembering carefully, although she still can't fully understand the meaning of these words, she believes that she will understand when she grows up.
Tatyana had been listening to her from the sidelines, and at this time she finally couldn't help but ask, "Do you really think it's good to tell Alice about this at such a young age?" ”
"I don't know how to be a competent father," Wang Weiyi said frankly...... "I don't know how to teach a child." But the only thing I could do. It is to tell her everything I know. She has a long, long road ahead of her, and I must show him the ugliest side of the world. ”
He would never allow Alice to be hurt in any way along the way, so he would not regret telling Alice something ugly......
......
One after another, betraying the Grand Duke of Belstoka without his knowledge, he had no idea what was going on around him. But at least one thing he saw was that Moscow was turning into a grave.
But who will be buried in this tomb?
A large number of police and military personnel appeared on the streets of Moscow, especially even tanks. Generals Khmelitsky, Duyoshenko, and Tangoloniv received orders as soon as anything uncontrollable happened. Then he did not hesitate to resolutely suppress it.
But the people of Moscow were not afraid at all, and they still gathered together. shouted slogans against the Grand Duke and the government......
No one can stop their determination to change it all!
In the midst of the marching crowds, the secret police even spotted the editor-in-chief of the Moscow Herald, Mr. Poldorf, whom the Grand Duke had named to arrest.
"Major, I see Pordorf......" A secret policeman pointed to the front of the crowd: "Do you want to arrest him immediately?" ”
"Are you crazy?" The major glanced at his men: "Capture Boltov?" We're going to be overwhelmed by the angry crowd very quickly, damn it, I don't want to take that risk. ”
The secret policeman scratched his head: "But the Grand Duke has already given the order......"
"My child, sober up, you have to be glad you met me." The major sneered: "Do you think the Grand Duke can continue to sit in that position safely?" No, if my guess is correct, the Grand Duke will soon be stepping down. Even his loyal subordinates Migroski and Kim Walker fled, not to mention us little people? I can also tell you one more thing, Chief Khmelitsky has already given the order, and no one is allowed to act rashly without his personal instructions......"
"So what do we do now? Just stay here? ”
"Why not? It's such a beautiful weather......" The major glanced at the sky: "Or, the storm will soon cover Moscow, and Moscow will soon change." ”
No one wants to play for Grand Duke Belstoka anymore, no one.
This once-invincible Grand Duke is experiencing the most terrible scene in his life at this time......
And by this time in Migroski's club, all those who had sworn allegiance to "Mr. Petergov" had already gathered.
Some of them were willing to work for "Mr. Petergoff", Baron Alexon, and some were forced, but no matter what their mentality, at least they saw one thing clearly now: Gregory was powerless!
A change of owner is also a good option......
"Is it all about the same?" Wang Weiyi looked at these people coldly and asked coldly.
"Yes, it's all ready." Khmelitsky replied respectfully: "Gregory has lost everything he has, and what he is doing now is simply dying there." I think we can get our hands dirty. ”
"And what about the 8th Panzer Corps Admiral Tangoloniv?" Wang Weiyi asked.
"Your Excellency, he may have been loyal to Gregory before, but now the situation has completely changed, and he knows what he should do, what to choose in the event of a sudden change. I can guarantee that. ”
Wang Weiyi smiled: "Yes, you are all smart people, and you all know how to protect yourself when danger comes." So, what are we waiting for now? A storm is about to wash all of Moscow! ”
The storm is about to wash over all of Moscow - and when Baron Alexon utters this, the worst end is about to begin!
Everyone will inevitably be involved in this storm, consciously or unconsciously! (To be continued......)
