Moscow!

Today is the annual Royal Hunt Day, and Empress Catherine leads all the royal family members to attend a hunting convention in the suburbs.

Duke Peter had good luck and hunted a strong buck. The glade was cleared, and Her Majesty's banquet was held here.

Today's lunch is roast venison, man! Still unable to resist the venison, a group of people gathered around the edge of a long table covered with snow-white tablecloths to eat roast venison.

"Whose position does that place belong to?" Catherine looked strangely at an empty chair, and there were still people who dared to be late for the luncheon she was hosting.

"Oh! That was the place of the adjutant of Peter the Great, Vladimir. Seeing Her Majesty's question, the attendants immediately reported it.

Because it was the elk that Duke Peter hunted, it was basically all his men. If it were somewhere else, there would never be such a little adjutant's seat.

On the other hand, the lieutenant was also highly regarded by Duke Peter.

Duke Peter did not speak, but one of his men laughed and said, "It may be that the horse he pulled the cart is in trouble again." ”

As soon as the words fell, the big guy laughed.

"What's wrong?" Catherine looked at Duke Peter suspiciously.

"This Vladimore is a strange man, he never talks much on weekdays, and his carriage is always the head of the carriage. When I asked him why this was the case, he said that if something happened, he could ride the carriage as fast as he could. ”

"Oh! That's right. Empress Catherine also felt that this was a weirdo with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

Not only that, but he also thwarted the pistol's stopper. At one point he stomped his foot, and the gun went off and nearly hit him in the leg. ”

"This guy also loves winter swimming, and no matter how cold the day, he insists on taking a cold shower. Moreover, it is still in a wild pit on the side of the road. ”

"He never drank alcohol, even when the Duke ordered him to. It is said that it is necessary to keep a clear head and be ready to deal with enemy attacks at any time. ”

"He has a plan for everything, and whoever disrupts his plan, he will fight with whom."

Duke Peter saw the words of these gossips, and the chaotic scene immediately fell silent.

"Vladimir is a little weird on weekdays, but he is very serious and organized. If you leave things to him, he will take care of it.

He's a very capable man! "Duke Peter's evaluation can be regarded as very high. Even Catherine was surprised that the old-fashioned Duke Peter could give such an assessment, which was very rare.

"Oh!"

"Hmmm! This is indeed a natural warrior, and all his actions are preparing for battle. There aren't many of them now! Dolgon also complimented.

It's not hard to be vigilant, it's rare to be vigilant in any environment. Especially in a place like Moscow, as the capital of the empire, there will be absolutely no foreign invaders. It is rare that this Vladimir can still be so vigilant.

"Oh!" The two important ministers around her commented so, and Catherine couldn't help but let out another "oh". Naturally, the idea of having people remove the chair was also dispelled.

She wanted to see who this Vladimir was.

After a while, a man dressed in a traditional Orthodox robe walked up. After saluting Her Majesty the Empress and Duke Peter, he sat down in his place.

An adjutant's seat, naturally far from Her Majesty the Empress. Ekaterina ate venison and looked at this Vladimir with interest.

Vladimir just ate and drank with his head down, and did not chat with the people next to him while eating and drinking, as everyone else did.

A banquet is actually a social occasion where everyone eats and chats together to add to the emotional exchange. Everyone is mixing in Russia, and it is very important to collect likes and connections.

It seems, as Duke Peter said. This is a man of few words, but I wonder if he will be able to get things done as Duke Peter said.

Thinking of this, Empress Catherine hooked her finger at the attendant officer in the distance.

The attendant came over, and Ekaterina said something to the attendant with her ear attached. The attendant was stunned for a moment, but still walked down.

The banquet was very lively, and the venison coated with honey tasted quite good. Everyone ate with their mouths full of oil, and some of the guys who drank high unconsciously became louder.

If Her Majesty the Empress hadn't been here, someone might have started to wander around the world. The birds in the forest seemed to be frightened by this group of people, and flew away with their shoulders.

A bear roar woke everyone's wine up.

A giant bear swooped out of the woods, it was really a giant bear, Duke Peter had never seen such a big brown bear in his more than fifty years of life.

The giant bear pounced and slapped a thick bowl of trees in its way. He roared with his mouth wide open, revealing two sharp fangs. At the same time, the fat all over the body shook like a wave.

"Bear!" Those guys who had already drunk a circle, the wine they had just drunk immediately turned into sweat. I don't know who shouted, and everyone immediately scattered and fled.

One guy was probably stunned, and actually knocked over Ekaterina who was sitting in a chair at once.

The scene suddenly became chaotic, everyone wanted to run, and the guards in the distance rushed over, picked up Queen Catherine and began to run.

Duke Peter sat in his chair and left no one to care, and by this time he had hated the guards to death.

Just as everyone was running for their lives, a "bang" shot rang out.

Vladimir grabbed a revolver that he didn't know who dropped and shot at the brown bear.

The bullet hit the brown bear, and blood burst out of the shiny and slippery bear's skin. Unfortunately, the distance was a bit far, and the bullet only pierced the bearskin.

The giant brown bear suffered from the pain and became even more crazy. With a roar, he gave up on the Duke Peter and pounced on Vladimir instead.

Vladimir swallowed heavily, took a deep breath and shielded his breath, took aim and pulled the trigger again at the giant brown bear.

"Bang~!" Another shot.

With such a huge brown bear, it is indeed difficult to miss. The revolver bullet hit the brown bear in the abdomen again, but the body was the same as the last time, only through the bear's skin.

Blood flew again, but the brown bear went even more furious.

"Bang~!" Another shot, the bullet hit the brown bear in the neck. Unexpectedly, the brown bear didn't care at all, but became more violent.

To deal with such a violent thing, the power of the pistol is obviously not enough.

Vladimir struggled to hold his breath and tried to aim his revolver at the brown bear's chest. There is a tuft of crescent-shaped white hair there, and as long as it hits this place, it can directly kill this huge brown bear.

"Bang~!" The shot was still crooked, hitting the brown bear in the shoulder. With the naked eye, the bear skin on the brown bear's shoulder was lifted, and the blood beads were thrown far away.

There were few bullets in the gun, but the brown bear was almost in front of him. Just when the brown bear was less than ten meters away, Vladimir pulled the trigger again.

"Bang~!" The shot hit the brown bear directly in the eye.

The bullet directly shattered the brown bear's eyeballs, because the distance was too close, and the powerful kinetic energy directly penetrated the brown bear's skull and drilled into the brown bear's head. The copper-skinned bullet swirled and rampage inside the brown bear's head, making a mess of the brown bear's brain in an instant.

Staggered and staggered two steps, "Boom~!" "The brown bear fell at Vladimir's feet. The sharp claws of the bear almost cut through Vladimir's face.

"Bang~!" Aimed at the back of the brown bear's head, Vladimir pulled the trigger again.

"Click~!"

"Click~!"

"Click~!"

The brown bear twitched on the ground, and Vladimir was still mechanically pulling the trigger. The firing pin slammed into each other, but no more bullets flew out.

A group of royal guards rushed over, rifles firing machine guns at the back of the brown bear's head. Soon, the brown bear couldn't even twitch. The chief guard kicked twice, and after making sure that the brown bear was not moving, he said to Vladimir: "Your Majesty, please!" ”

"Her Majesty?" Vladimir hurriedly returned the gun in his hand to the chief of the guard.

Although there were no bullets in the gun, he could not take them with him to Her Majesty.

Turning his head, Vladimir realized. On the branch hung a man with two legs and a rabbit-like stomping, the unlucky one who had just knocked over Her Majesty.

A group of officials stood tremblingly, and many of them no longer had panic on their faces, but were replaced by a gray defeat.

With their asses, they knew that in a dangerous situation, they not only abandoned their boss, Duke Peter. even abandoned Empress Catherine, it is conceivable that the future career of these people can be regarded as coming to an end.

"Vladimir, you're doing a good job." Empress Catherine looked at this man who was not tall and somewhat bald, but looked very strong and strong.

"It's all supposed to be done, Your Majesty!" Vladimir hung his head, and his somewhat bald head was slightly embarrassed.

"No wonder Duke Peter said that you are a man who is always ready to fight." For Vladimir, Ekaterina was very satisfied.

If it was someone else, he would have been pouring out his loyalty to her at this time.

How can there be anything like Vladimir, just said it casually.

Duke Peter also looked at Vladimir with appreciation, after all, the brown bear was the first target of him.

"I'm going to give you a suitable spot, what do you think?" Ekaterina looked at Vladimir with a smile.

"I'll do my best to do what you tell me to do." Vladimir's head didn't even mean to lift it.

"Very well, now ......!" Ekaterina was about to speak, when suddenly a horse galloped in the distance. The knight on the horse urged the horse like crazy, and the cloak behind him was pulled in a straight line.

Galloping to the defensive circle of the guards, the knight rolled over and dismounted. It is estimated that after riding for a long time, the rider is already half tired to death. "Poof" fell to the ground!

Several guards saw the letter bucket behind the knight and immediately picked them up and dragged them to Her Majesty.

Catherine and Duke Peter frowned, looking at the appearance of this knight, they must have been speeding for a long time. There is no urgency, they will not be like this.

Seeing Catherine, the messenger struggled to untie the letter barrel from her body and handed it to Her Majesty with difficulty.

After inspecting the fire paint on the letter barrel, Catherine opened the letter barrel. Taking out the letterhead inside and reading it, Catherine closed her eyes and turned a little pale.

"What's wrong?" It was a long time before Duke Peter asked.

"There is war in the south, the fleet of the Ming Empire attacked Sevastopol on the Crimean peninsula. Our ironclads are finished, and so is Sevastopol. ”

"Shh~~~~~~h Duke Peter gasped.

Russia has identified the Ming Empire as an adversary, but they definitely don't want to go to war now. But in the current situation, Da Ming is absolutely undeclared.

However, this is also something that cannot be helped, the Russian Empire and the Ming Empire have no diplomatic relations at all.

"What happened to the Nikolaev shipyard? What happened to our ironclads? "Duke Peter was nervous all at once, he didn't care about Sevastopol.

But he cared about the Nikolaev shipyard and the three ironclads that he regarded as his sweethearts. This is the hope of the Russian Navy!

"Since the Ming Dynasty is undeclared war, it is very likely that the Ottoman Empire is also ready to move." Dolgon sighed, he had worked hard, but he didn't expect Da Ming to take the lead.

Bucharest!

Since the last defeat, it has become the border between the Ottoman and Russian empires. Although there are many Turkic people living in Chisinau, it has become the territory of the Russians.

"Kirov! Recently, the Ottomans on the other side have been a little restless, and intelligence says that they are gradually increasing their troops. ”

"Yes! It has been confirmed that within ten days they had increased their troops by more than 10,000 men. ”

"These screaming guys still want to fight us?"

"Don't say that, although we won the Crimean War. But our casualties are not small, I know that after Ji Lina, the health soldier of the wing, was captured, her intestines were torn out.

The Turks treated us as cruelly as the Armenians. Moreover, now they are the dogs of the Ming people. If the Ming people help them, we will be in danger. ”

"What's wrong with the Ming people? The people of the Ming Kingdom are also people, except that the weapons are better than ours, and there is nothing else. ”

"I've heard that Sevastopol in Crimea was attacked by the Ming army ten days ago. Not only was the naval fleet in the port completely destroyed, but even Sevastopol was bombed into a pile of rubble. ”

"How is this possible, why didn't I hear the news, my aunt's house is there."

"The message is blocked!"

"It's very likely, although we also built ironclad ships, but the fleet of the Ming people is even more powerful. I have seen the warships of the Ming people, which look like a moving mountain on the sea.

They really have the ability to destroy Sevastopol! ”

"Listen, what is this sound?"

Several men pricked up their ears, trying to discern where the shrill voice came from. In the dawn of the sky, several brilliant sparks had already exploded.

Almost instantly, countless shells fell in the sky. The entire barracks was in flames, and the smoke quickly filled the entire barracks.

In the dawn of the sky, countless columns of smoke were soaring.

The sun came out, and the arsenal ships floating on the sea crossed a graceful arc and began to return under the escort of two ironclad ships. And the Russian military camp in the distance is burning like a torch.

At the moment when the sun came out, all the Ottoman soldiers knelt on the ground and prayed to the sun. When the soldiers finished praying, they grabbed their weapons, crossed the border that made them feel humiliated, and killed them.

The soldiers, inspired by religion and patriotism, burst out with great enthusiasm.

The Russians' barracks suffered a sudden blow from the Ming arsenal ships, suffered heavy losses, and were defeated in the Ottoman feverish attack.

The rapidly routed front did not stop until it reached the Iasi Pass.

Faced with a front of machine-gun barbed wire, the Ottoman infantry had no choice. After all, even the warriors of the true gods are not invulnerable.
