Struggle in Russia

The regiment headquarters of the 748 regiment was filled with low air pressure, as oppressive as before the storm. The officers who had been idle sat upright one by one, like elementary school students who had made a mistake. Of course, there are also those bold and thorny heads whispering:

"Have you heard that something happened to Gazinski and he was taken away by the military police!"

"Why did that iron rooster provoke the military police? Did the bastards below make a big fuss? Or was corruption reported?"

"It doesn't seem to be the case. I heard that it was smuggling and it was found out."

"Haha, I've known for a long time that there would be a day when that bastard would eat alone all day long. He's so penny-pinching. I've hated him for a long time. Good report! Well done! Who did it?"

The one who spoke to Li Xiao nunuzui hinted in a very subtle way, while the former was so surprised that he didn't dare to speak casually, obviously he also knew how deep the water was here.

For a while, the mood of the officers became more depressed, and they began to pretend to be wooden figures one by one, for fear of being implicated if they were not careful.

A few minutes later, Messadov took the lead and walked into the conference room with several leaders of the regiment. He was a big fat man who looked like three meat balls stacked together, and his fat was trembling when he walked. After just a few steps, I was slightly out of breath.

Standing on the main seat, Messadov took a short breath, and the cloudy green eyes under his bald forehead turned around, wondering what he was thinking. Next to him, the tall and slender deputy commander Kutepov, who was as tall as a bamboo pole, was not as gloomy as the officers had expected, and his expression was as calm as an old well, as if the arrested Gazinski and Shirokov were not His confidants seemed to be confident that nothing would happen.

"Meeting!"

Messadov's voice was as dull as a candied fruit in his mouth, a little weak, but his French pronunciation was very accurate, a standard court accent. Obviously, this person must be of noble origin, and he is not a low-ranking nobleman who can enter and leave the court. Compared with him, Gaczynski's French is not as good, it is as blunt and awkward as a foreigner speaking Mandarin.

However, although Messadov's French accent is authentic, it is not pleasant, not only because he is too fat and lacks energy, but more importantly, the meaning behind his words is not very beneficial to Li Xiao:

"Just yesterday, a shocking case occurred in our regiment, which even alarmed the gentlemen of the third department to investigate. This is a huge scandal that has never been seen before since the establishment of the regiment! As the head of the regiment, I am very shocked! I am also very angry! The reputation of the group for many years has been destroyed!!"

Naturally, no one would believe this nonsense. The 748 regiment doesn't have a damn reputation, it's almost notorious. Obviously, Mesakov is setting the tone. To put it bluntly, it is the beginning of accountability.

Sure enough, after the tone was set, he changed the subject and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Ilya Petrovich, you will explain the specific situation in detail. My personal opinion is to deal with it seriously!"

Kutepov stood up in a leisurely manner, with a calm and stable expression, but he was still somewhat upset, especially when he saw Li Xiao and Boris.

"His Excellency Grand Duke Andrei Konstantinovich and Lieutenant Boris Viktorovich, aren't you going to explain? Why did you attack Captain Gasinski and maliciously frame him and Shirokov for crimes?" Major, this is a serious crime!"

Li Xiao was not nervous, he was fully prepared after he chose to move Gasinski, so he just stood up calmly and replied like a quiet dwarf: "Lieutenant Colonel, please pay attention to your words, Captain Gazinski was arrested on suspicion of robbery, smuggling, and embezzlement of arms, and Major Shirokov was arrested on suspicion of dereliction of duty, and the military police have made preliminary conclusions about the relevant situation."

"Major Muraviyov has reported the relevant evidence. There is no frame, but I want to ask you, in the case of these two officers committing such a serious crime,

You don't pursue the relevant responsibilities first, don't ask indiscriminately, what do you mean by maliciously making things difficult for me as a victim first? Are you also an accomplice, ready to cover them? "

Kutepov was furious. He really didn't expect that someone would be so reckless and dare to challenge him. He didn't know that the superior had sent someone to wipe his ass. Don't you have nothing to be ashamed of?

Kutepov slapped the table fiercely: "Nonsense, you are obviously the one who planted the frame, the truth has been revealed, it is useless for you to argue and deny it, I advise you..."

Li Xiao interrupted him directly, and said disdainfully: "I advise you to save your saliva, you said the truth is revealed? Did the military police come to the conclusion, or the third department made the conclusion? What about the written documents? Nothing , you are just talking nonsense here, is your deputy head at this level?"

Kutepov was angry and was about to explode, but Mesakov stopped him: "Lieutenant Colonel, don't be impulsive!"

It's not that Mesakov turned to Li Xiao out of kindness and spoke for him. On the contrary, he also received instructions from his superiors. Menshikov personally sent a message asking him to cooperate with Kutepov to punish Li Xiao. Even if he was unwilling, he would not dare to disobey Menshikov's wishes.

He stopped Kutepov because he was worried that Kutepov would be provoked by someone to do some inappropriate and inappropriate actions, such as hitting someone, and that would be a lot of fun. After all, someone is a Grand Duke, no matter how lame his status is, it is a serious crime to shoot someone, which will mess up their arrangements and allow someone to "get away with it".

After stopping Kutepov, he immediately "taught" someone: "Your Excellency, please also pay attention to your words. The lieutenant colonel is your superior, please obey and respect your superior like a soldier. As for you Speaking of the written document, I think there will be a conclusion soon, please stay calm!"

Both Kutepov and Mesakov felt that it would be easy to destroy some unfavorable evidence with a third film. As for the testimony of Major Muraviyov, can he still confront the crown prince? So there is no need to worry at all, just let someone be arrogant for a while, and then settle the ledger and get revenge together later.

thump thump!

There was a knock on the door, and soon three third military policemen in sky-blue military uniforms were invited in. Kutepov was in a good mood immediately and his confidence doubled. He even gave Mesakov a blank look, as if Said: [See if you see, this is Lao Tzu's strength. The reinforcements from the third part will come as soon as they say they are welcome, and you better be more sensible in the future, otherwise I will let you have a taste of it if I don't mind! 】

"Gentlemen, are you here to arrest someone?" Kutepov asked impatiently, and then pointed at Li Xiao: "That is Grand Duke Andrei Konstantinovich, the principal criminal in this case. Next to him is the accomplice, Lieutenant Boris!"

What surprised Kutepov was that the three gendarmes didn't do anything when they heard this, but were a little embarrassed. The three looked at each other before faltering and saying: "Lieutenant Colonel... tsk, please be quiet ... This ... this, this case is still under investigation, we ... we are here to find out the relevant situation!"
