Struggle in Russia

Chapter 136 Tired

Although Ilya was mentally exhausted, when he really started to work, he still cheered up and completed his tasks conscientiously. Every barracks, every arsenal, and even every officer is treated carefully, which is not sloppy at all. He even took out a notebook and recorded everything he saw and heard. Alexei was amazed by his careful concentration.

This is another characteristic of Ilya. He is meticulous in his work, and everything will be done to perfection. Even if he himself does not agree with this task, as long as his superior has an order, he will absolutely execute it without compromise.

It should be said that he is a good soldier with integrity, because there are too few people in Russia who are so meticulous. Even the sons of the nobles in the army often do things hastily, so they can be fooled as much as they can, and they can deal with it as much as they can. If you are so serious and careful, you might as well stay and drink for fun!

This caused the Russian army to be full of slack and perfunctory ethos. They did not strive for perfection in everything they did, and did not take orders from above at all.

This style of not paying attention to details naturally makes the Russian army very rough. When they are not afraid of death, they are really not afraid of death, but the tactical details are often a mess, because no one is willing to dig into the details.

If Ilya was not the special envoy sent by Nicholas I to supervise and inspect them, Alexei would be very happy to get acquainted with him. There are too few outliers like him in Russia. Even Alexei is willing to use such an outlier like him. In his opinion, if he wants to do things well, he has to dig out the details like Ilya.

It's just that Ilya is obviously not on the same side as them. As Nicholas I's special commissioner, and he picked up details on them as soon as he came up.

For such a person, besides feeling sorry for him, Alexei was more vigilant. He didn't want to be bitten by such a person!

As for Muraviyov, the old man was stunned. Because he has already tortured someone badly enough, he thought that someone should be listless, but who would have thought that someone would look like he was cheating, what is the reason for this?

Muraviyov couldn't figure it out no matter how he thought about it. Last night he had tossed hard enough, and even he himself was exhausted enough. He almost just stared in a daze in the second half of the night, and he woke up this morning feeling as uncomfortable as his brain bursting.

But look at someone, is he a little affected? He was just like a normal person. Could it be that someone else was with him last night?

Muraviyov even suspected that Ilya had a twin brother or younger brother, otherwise he would be so energetic?

It's just that the old man doesn't believe in that evil either,

He decided to continue to torment Ilya tonight, he still doesn't believe that someone is made of iron!

Let's mourn for poor Ilya. I don't know if it's his bad luck or the poor old man's bad luck to be targeted by Muraviyov. In short, it's weird enough.

But Alexei didn't know about this. He only knew that the two special envoys this time were very difficult to deal with. They were not like the previous ones. They could be dismissed with a little blood. But what kind of way are these two envoys now? I can't figure out whether it's good or not!

"Is it that serious?"

Li Xiao was a little strange when he heard Alexei's narration in the evening. It was not the first time that Nicholas I's special envoys and imperial envoys had entertained them. Is it different?

"These two people are so weird!" Alexei replied after thinking for a while, "The old one looks careless as if he doesn't care about anything, and is going to go through the motions, but when you encounter a critical problem, you can obviously feel that he doesn't care. It's the same!"

Li Xiao asked, "Why is it different?"

Alexey searched his guts and replied: "On the surface, it seems that he doesn't care, but he is secretly observing. He looks like an old bastard!"

Li Xiao froze for a moment, recalled Muraviyov's expression, and groped for a moment, thinking that this person might be pretending to be confused, but he didn't immediately draw a conclusion, but asked: "Then what about the other one?" ?What is the problem?"

Alexei smiled wryly: "That is completely meticulous, it seems that there is no room for negotiation at all with business as usual!"

Slowing down, he asked with a bitter face: "Tell me what happened to these two? Did you deliberately find fault?"

According to Alexey's description, Li Xiao couldn't help but start to make up his mind, because Muraviyov looked like a smiling tiger, he was joking and talking, but his stomach was full of bad water. As for Ilyana, he is a ruthless conservative, who will not treat you well at all.

Faced with such a combination of two people, Li Xiao also found it tricky. After thinking for a long time, he didn't have any good ideas, so he could only reply: "I'll go and accompany them tomorrow, and see what tricks they are up to!"

The next day, Li Xiao appeared with Alexei. But today, the state of Muraviyov and Ilya is obviously a little different. If the two people were still at odds with each other before and were wary of each other, then today there is almost no harmony on the surface. I really put the maximum precautions between them.

Why is this so?

That has to start with the good deeds Muraviyov did at night. After chatting and supper the day before, the old man had a new trick. First, he dragged Ilya to a meeting under the pretense of summarizing the day's work, and then tossed it until 11 or 12 o'clock. Of course, this time Ilya couldn't say anything He promised to go to supper again, and he suspected that if he had such a meal again, he would die on the toilet.

Ilya's refusal to drink and supper is a problem for others, but it is not a problem for Muraviev at all. He didn't rest in the middle of the night, so he ordered his attendants to call a symphony orchestra to give a concert, in the name of using music to help him sleep.

It's just that the piece that Muraviyov ordered was either an impassioned march or a majestic piece like the Symphony of Destiny. This type of music has a common feature - that is noisy.

Anyway, Ilya didn't want to fall asleep at all, he couldn't bear the torment, he had to go to Muraviyov to reason, but he couldn't leave as soon as he entered the old man's door, because he was fed up by the old man Vodka, on the grounds that vodka is a good medicine for insomnia.

It’s okay if you don’t drink, because the old man won’t let him go at all, anyway, this night is another toss, not to mention Muraviyov and Ilya, no one in the entire hotel and around the hotel can sleep well. Accompany the old man to boil the eagle...
