Chapter 83
"Your Majesty, what is so urgent?" Brauchitsch finally met Catherine.
"Someone said that the army will take action today, and I'm afraid you'll make a mistake. That's when he ordered someone to take you over, and now it seems to be a mistake in intelligence.
It's a shame that you've been delayed for so long in the Winter Palace! ”
"Will the Ming army act? This should be unlikely, although the Ming army has increased its troops, it is only 500,000 people on Russian soil.
The Generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty is also counting on us, Russia, to resist the huge number of coalition forces.
They ......"
"I heard you haven't eaten yet?" Catherine suddenly interrupted Brauchitsch.
"Uh......! Yes, I didn't eat it. Brauchitsch was stunned, not understanding why Catherine asked.
"Then let's eat a little together, I didn't eat either.
Busy from the morning until now! "Ekaterina lied and never had to type a draft.
She was indeed busy this morning, but in bed with Rasputdin.
Throughout the afternoon, Catherine stayed in the Winter Palace, looking out the window at Moscow in the distance, for fear that a cloud of black smoke would rise into the air.
"Ugh! Yes, Her Majesty. Brauchitsch was also really hungry, and hurriedly followed Catherine into the restaurant.
The restaurant was large, but only Brauchitsch and Catherine ate it.
Brauchitsch was flattered, and it was the first time he had eaten alone with Catherine.
Those young and handsome officers often get such opportunities.
Could it be that Her Majesty had other thoughts...... Brauchitsch shook his head.
At this age, I'm afraid I don't have the strength to have this heart.
"I've heard that your daughter, Peggy, is missing?" After cutting a piece of steak and putting it in her mouth, Catherine suddenly asked.
"Oh!" Brauchitsch hurriedly swallowed the steak in his mouth.
"I woke up this morning and was gone, and I was thinking about how to find it before I came.
I suspect that someone has kidnapped him, and the kidnappers should have written to him to demand ransom. Speaking of Peggy, Brauchitsch couldn't even eat a delicious steak.
"Don't worry, Brauchitsch, Peggy is in the line of the generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty." Catherine looked at Brauchitsch with a smile.
She ...... She's in Da Ming Xingyuan, what is she doing there? Brauchitsch was taken aback.
At this time, it is simply suicide to get involved with the Ming people.
"I think Peggy should have fallen in love with the son of the generalissimo of the Ming Dynasty. Today they appeared together at Rasputin's casino and beat Rasputin. ”
“……!” Brauchitsch watched Catherine hold back.
If Rasputin had not been Her Majesty's lover, he would have been thrown into the Volga by the Great People.
"Brauchitsch, you don't have to worry. I have no doubt about your loyalty, it's just a little girl's choice.
I've been a young boy and a girl, and I know how unrealistic fantasies there were at that time. Catherine took a casual sip of wine and raised her glass to Brauchitsch.
"Oh!" Brauchitsch hurriedly picked up his glass and took a sip in a panic.
By doing this, Catherine represents her favor.
This is very rare in Russia now!
A very big change is coming, and it's important to be consistent with Her Majesty the Empress at this time.
"I want you to go to Prussia and talk to Bismarck.
Agree on a workable plan, and we will launch it at the same time.
Taking advantage of the chaos of the Ming army, the front-line troops took the opportunity to let the coalition forces in to expel the Ming people. ”
"Your Majesty, I think ......!"
"Brauchitsch, I know what you think.
But what Daming has done over the years, coupled with accurate intelligence, shows that.
Once the war is won, the Ming will attack us.
Li Xiao does not like a strong Russia, he will dismember us as much as India.
Without a strong and united Russia, then what are we?
Who cares about us?
The strength of Russia is important, but our survival and position are even more important.
Russia is still Russia without us, but we ...... without Russia! ”
"Your Majesty, I see. Tomorrow, uh...... Now I will leave for Prussia.
I'll bring back the plan as soon as possible to make sure we have a seamless connection with the coalition forces. ”
"Hmmm! This time you go with Duke Peter, he worries about military matters, and you are mainly responsible for negotiating with the Prussians about post-war affairs.
We can't drive out the Ming, but here the Prussians and the French are coming again.
What do you say about the Ming people? ”
"The front door drives the tiger and the back door enters the wolf." As a great master, Brauchitsch immediately thought of this famous quote.
"Yes, that's it.
Russia is ours, and no foreign power will be allowed to interfere anymore.
You must let Frederick and Bismarck know that we will do anything to keep what we have. ”
"Yes!"
Brauchitsch understood that Catherine was not willing to lose power in her hands in any case.
But she can't be blamed for this, any king who loses power ends up dying worse than a pig.
The two of them were talking while eating, and before they knew it, they had been eating for a long time.
Suddenly, the phone rang in the restaurant, and the chief guard hurried over to answer it.
"Your Majesty, the Daming gendarmes are gathering." Holding the earpiece, the head of the guard said urgently.
"What?" The wine in Catherine's hand fell to the ground with a "dang bang".
Glass shards splattered far away, and red wine snaked like a snake on the ground.
"Immediately gather the army and prepare to attack the Ming Dynasty. Pick up ......, pick up Kutuzov. "Catherine was a little incoherent.
Things have far exceeded her expectations, and she doesn't understand why Li Xiao would do it at this time.
Just now, Catherine thought that Rasputin's information was a false alarm.
"Slow!" Brauchitsch suddenly shouted.
"What are you going to do?" Catherine looked at Brauchitsch like a tigress.
"Your Majesty! I don't think Da Ming will do it at this time, this is probably a misunderstanding.
Mr. Chief of the Guard, is there an abnormal movement in the Ming army, or is there only the Ming gendarmes gathering? ”
Without waiting for Catherine to speak, Brauchitsch asked first.
"The Ming army, as usual, is no different. It was only the gendarmes that were assembled. The chief of the guard replied honestly.
"That's right! Your Majesty, if there is a military operation, they should mobilize all the troops, not just the gendarmes.
In my opinion, it should be some action within the Ming army.
Since you are in the Winter Palace, it is good to mobilize troops to strengthen the defenses of the Winter Palace.
This is Russia, not the Ming Empire. We are familiar with everything here, but the Ming people can't. ”
Listening to Brauchitsch's words, Catherine stopped panicking.
Brauchitsch was right, if he wanted to kill her Catherine, he would have to use the army anyway.
After all, Ekaterina had two guards divisions on her hands to keep her safe.
Although the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty were brave and good at fighting, it was still a little difficult for the military police armed with light weapons to deal with two guard divisions.
"Order the Praetorian Guard to be on high alert." Ekaterina went to the window and gave a new order.
Moscow is lit up in the dark night, and it is far less beautiful than the city of Daming.
But this is already one of the few cities in Europe that has been electrified!
You know, there are still 400 million people in Europe who rely on oil lamps for lighting.
In Western Europe, only big cities like London, Paris, and Berlin have electricity!
When will Moscow be as prosperous as the capital of the Ming Dynasty.
"Your Majesty! I went to the city to see what was going on. ”
Brauchitsch took the initiative to stand up, of course he did it selfishly, after all, Peggy was still in the generalissimo's business.
He wanted to go to Xingyuan and take the opportunity to bring Peggy home.
It is definitely not a wise move to get involved with the Ming people now, and neither can the generalissimo's son.
"Hmmm! Go and go back. Catherine immediately agreed.
After all, Brauchitsch was the minister with the best relationship with the Ming Dynasty, and there was no such thing as one of them.
"Squeak!" A sharp brake sounded.
The military jeep stopped in front of the Liaodong Dumpling Restaurant, and Li Lin, who had just left for an hour, returned here again.
It's just that unlike last time, this time Li Lin brought a truck of gendarmes.
The ** who are still carnival have weak legs and cramps, and they don't know what the armed gendarmes are going to do.
This group of wolf-like guys is not afraid of heaven and earth. The Russian police saw them take a detour!
But only when they saw the Daming military police, these people were numb.
The gendarmerie is the soldier who manages the soldiers, and the officers at the battalion and company level also do the same.
Every time you see these gendarmes on the street, the cattle will immediately scatter.
Now two truckloads came at a time, and the young marshal brought them with them.
Standing tremblingly and saluting, hoping that the young marshal would not trouble himself.
Bayan was very nervous, hesitating to return the money he had just snatched at the gambling table to the young marshal.
The old monkey stood with an indifferent face, and behind him stood Ding San, and there was a beautiful big-eyed hairy girl.
Li Lin walked past them without looking at them at all. Instead, he went straight to the backyard!
The backyard of the Liaodong dumpling restaurant, no one has ever been there.
Everyone thought it was the back kitchen!
The gendarmes poured in like a tide, and the two Russian men tried in vain to stop them, but they were directly stabbed with guns.
The three-edged bayonet pierced directly through the chest and pierced the heart.
The rest of the people learned to be obedient and fell to their knees directly with their heads in their hands.
The old monkey who followed Li Lin in looked curiously, he had never come to backup, and he didn't know what was in the backyard.
The big guys also think that the backyard should be the kitchen.
But when I arrived in the backyard, I found that there was a hole in it.
At the end of the European-style cloister, there is a large hall.
When I walked in the door, I smelled a strong sour smell.
It smells a bit like sweat!
But this is winter, and this foot smells so much.
The room was warm, and the heat and sour smell came together.
There are reclining chairs all over the floor, the kind that can only lie on one person, like a bed and a sofa.
The recliners were filled with thinly dressed people, the vast majority of whom were Russians.
Beside everyone was a Russian woman who was dressed like she wasn't wearing it, and these women didn't look as good as the drinking girls outside, but their bodies were hot.
The front is convex and backward, and the small waist can pinch that.
Also, there were two women lying on their stomachs.
There are also two men lying on top of a woman!
The most disgusting thing is that there are actually two men huddled together.
It's disgusting!
Li Lin covered his nose and kicked over a guy who was still stirring in his ass.
The scene was so obscene that Li Lin blushed like a monkey's ass.
There are also several people who are incontinent here, and they pee all over the place.
A guy staggered to his feet and looked at Li Lin with an idiot-like smile.
The paws were covered with feces, and they actually wiped them on their faces.
Zhao Liangdong pulled Li Lin over, and shook his hand is a shot.
Didn't dare hit this bastard in the head, if that did, his head would explode like a rotten watermelon.
Brains and blood will splatter Li Lin's face all over his body!
People who have fought and killed on the battlefield naturally don't care, but Li Lin, after all, has not seen the real battlefield.
Hell yes!
The bullet passed through this guy's chest, and the blood beads even splashed on Zhao Liangdong's face.
But this guy still walked forward with a foolish smile.
The action is like a zombie, and the behavior is like a ghost.
It's terrifying!
"Bang!" Another gunshot rang out, and the bullet hit the man's leg.
This time, it was Li Lin's muzzle with smoke curling!
The shot was hitting the "zombie" in the knee, and the "zombie's" corrugated cover was directly shattered.
He fell to his knees with a crooked body, but he still waved his hand stained with and blood, and crawled forward step by step.
Everyone was stunned!
Ordinary people were shot, and all their strength was discharged.
The boulevards are all flying, and this pain is unbearable for any individual.
But this person didn't have the slightest expression of pain.
There was even a smile on his face.
Li Lin was a little stupid, and Zhao Liangdong was also a little stupid.
The gendarmes present are also making stupidity!
The old monkey snatched the gun from the gendarme's hand and rushed two steps.
Just as the "zombie's" hand was about to touch Li Lin's pants, the three-edged bayonet stabbed directly into his eyes.
The bayonet passed through the back of the "zombie's" head, and blood flowed down the triangular stabbing in strings.
He kicked on the head of the "zombie", and his still twitching body kicked off the bayonet.
"It's pumping, I didn't expect this place to hide this." The old monkey threw his gun at the gendarme.
There were already several guns on his head at this point!
"Young marshal, there are a few of our people." The gendarmes came over and whispered.
"If the marshal has something to say, correct the Fa on the spot, and report something." Zhao Liangdong said with some annoyance.
"Yes...... But that man ......! "The gendarmes were hesitant.
"Who?" Li Lin knew that the person who could make the gendarme so embarrassed was definitely not a small person.
"He's ......!"
