Struggle in Russia

The rebel army has never held such a long meeting. The leaders of the rebel army, who came from a rough background, do not like to solve problems in the formal way of aristocratic gentlemen.

They are better at solving problems in a more direct way, such as rolling up their sleeves and doing it directly. In a fight, whoever has the bigger fist will listen to whoever has it!

Of course, this is how they solved the problem a few months ago. At that time, they didn't even wash off the mud on their legs, so they just did it without any diarrhea!

But it's different now. It's not that they have changed their nature, but that the size of their fists can no longer adequately demonstrate their strength. They have begun to use the number of people and guns at their disposal to speak for themselves.

Listen to whoever has more men and guns!

The one with the most horses among Mrs. Chernych is naturally Sergey the Long Legs, and he is also the one with the most guns. After gathering the remaining defeated troops of Shalakov, the number of troops in his hands expanded to 30,000, including nearly 5,000 rifles and three or four cannons.

Such strength is considered outstanding not only in Chernihiv, but also in Kharkiv.

Naturally, from the perspective of strength, all the rebels in Chernihiv had to look at his face. If it was just a normal matter, then even if this group of people did not agree and could only hold their noses and admit it, the long-legged Sergei actually Asking them to surrender is really shocking and scary!

For most of the leaders of the rebel army, they never thought that they would still be alive from the moment they started the rebellion. For them, since they have committed a capital crime, they can risk their lives while they can still jump around. Even if you die, that's enough.

Naturally, they were not acting arrogantly all the way. To put it bluntly, you are embarrassed to say that you are the leader of the rebel army when there are not many noble lives in hand.

Killed so many nobles, robbed so many nobles' properties, and played with so many of their women. How big of a sin is this?

Anyway, if they were relatives and friends of those nobles in a different place, they would definitely kill them even if they held their breath.

surrender? Handing over the man and the gun does not mean handing over your head!

They don't believe in the integrity of the nobles!

"Then what do you want? Hold on until the end?" Long-legged Sergei glanced at the gang in front of him and said proudly: "Do you think you can hold on? Have you seen their cannons? They can kill them with cannons. you!"

After a pause, he continued: "This is the general trend. As more and more troops come to suppress you, the pressure on us will become greater and greater. At a certain point, even if you want to surrender, they will not bother to deal with you! "

He earnestly advised: "While the conditions offered by others are good now, let's vote in quickly. Not only can we save our lives, but we may also be able to survive. Isn't it better than just hanging around all day long?"

This is what the leaders of the rebel army struggle with the most. The conditions seem good, but can you guarantee that they will be able to fulfill them?

The long-legged Sergei waved his hand and said: "I am very sincere and sent a special envoy here. As long as the brothers are willing, how about I invite the special envoy to come and meet with you and have a chat?"

special envoy?

A bunch of people looked at each other, but they had no idea at all. They all hooked up with the special envoy, which showed that Sergei the Long-Legged was determined to surrender this time. If he surrendered, Chernihiv would not be able to hold on anymore. Wouldn't this suck the firepower out of the cauldron and force them to surrender?

To be honest, this group of people is getting more and more dissatisfied with Sergey the Long Legs. According to this guy's methods, even if he surrenders, he will gain the most benefits. It is not even ruled out that this product can be resold to them!

But if you want to say no, Sergei Chernihiv will definitely not be able to hold on without his long legs, and it will be a dead end.

After struggling for a long time, they finally decided to see the special envoy first to see what the situation was.

When Li Xiao and Peter Mikhailovich Sobolev walked into the venue, they deeply felt the entangled mentality of the rebel leaders.

However, Li Xiao didn't particularly care. If he dared to come here, he would be sure that he could convince these thugs.

"I heard that you guys want to fight to the end?" Li Xiao showed an aggressive momentum as soon as he came up and said majestically: "To be honest, I hope you will fight to the end... You are a bunch of scum who commit murder and robbery. I accept you. It is completely unreasonable to surrender and give you a chance to reform, so your heads should be chopped off and stuck on a long pole to serve as a warning to others!"

Sobolev was stunned. According to his assumption, the main work of this trip was to persuade and appease, and the main focus was a gentle policy.

But Li Xiao said harsh words as soon as he came up. Is it really okay to stimulate the other party in this way?

Especially when he saw the rebel leaders making an uproar, baring their teeth and starting to slap the table and stare, his heart was in his throat.

He felt that this trip might be more unlucky, and he was secretly thinking about how to resist and show the dignity of a nobleman if he really fell out with him later.

But Li Xiao was not nervous at all about such a messy scene. He snorted and said contemptuously: "What? Did I say something wrong? Don't you know what you have done? Don't you say it politely? For the crimes you committed, three times is enough, right?"

Everyone looked at Li Xiao with livid faces, as if they wanted to rush up and bite him to death. But Li Xiao was not afraid, pointing at their noses and scolding: "According to my opinion, I don't want to give you this way of survival at all, and even cut off your heads myself to make me feel better... But who let you have such luck? Well, the scale of this rebellion is too large, and there are too many people involved. If all of you rebels are taken away and beheaded, I’m afraid there won’t be a few people left in the entire Ukraine!”

He took a deep breath and said very depressedly: "So we have an idea from above. As long as you change your ways and are willing to cooperate with us to quell the rebellion and restore normal order in Ukraine, then we will pardon your crimes and give you a way to live!" "

The rebel leaders looked at each other because Li Xiao's words were completely different from what they thought. According to their understanding, the so-called surrender means laying down their weapons and surrendering, but according to Li Xiao's words, it seems that if they surrendered, they would also help quell the rebellion?

In other words, they still have to deal with their peers? Isn't this a bit too much?

But if they are allowed to fight the rebellion, does that mean they don’t have to hand over their guns?

Not having to hand over the gun barrel greatly increases the sense of security for people like them. At least it means that if the black dog does not fulfill its promise, they still have the opportunity to go back on it, which means that the sense of security is greatly increased!

Based on this alone, their resistance to surrender has been reduced by 80 to 90%!
