- There was a fierce battle in Orbchok, and both sides were fighting life and death around this place.
At this time, Wang Weiyi once again appeared in Moscow. With the resolution of the Ukrainian issue and the advance of the German army into the Orbchok region, it was time for the Russian problem to be finally resolved.
The Grand Duke of Bierstok ran away, he gave up on Ukraine, and he paid no attention to Orbchok. In his eyes, war has become the most terrifying thing, and his own life is the first priority.
It seems that only Moscow can give him a sense of security.
The government has strictly controlled the news of the failure in Ukraine, and they do not want the people to know even the slightest inside story. Only fooling good people matters.
Therefore, almost all official newspapers, television and radio stations in Russia are promoting the heroic Russian army, under the command of the great and wise Grand Duke of Berstoka, which is constantly winning victories.
It was under this whitewash that Gregory quietly slipped back to Moscow.
He also summoned his trusted finance minister Andreas, Margrave Milosevic of Andyak, Marquis Natalia of Ruhlia, Marquis of Pereas Khmeltsky, Karl Marquise Lonanova of Tish, Migrosky, and, of course, her son Ilya and Moscow garrison commander Duyoshenko.
Now, these people have become all his hope. £® £® £® £® £®
"Of course these senior figures know what is happening in Ukraine. Some of them are panicked, but others are secretly happy.
After all, their opportunity finally appeared in front of them. £® £® £® £® £®
"The Germans and the rebels will never give up such a good opportunity" Grigory seemed to have not recovered from the failure in Ukraine: "Before I entered Moscow, I had Got the intelligence, those damn guys are launching an attack on Orbchok. Before most of them arrive, it will be difficult for Orbchok to continue to defend, Kursk is about to be attacked, and then, there is Moscow ¡±
Now, these Russian officials have felt the seriousness of the problem.
But none of them spoke, and just listened to Gregory continue: "Our three armies suffered terrible defeats, and a new army must be formed. Mr. Finance Minister, how much funds can you allocate?"
Andreas was startled for a moment: "Your Majesty the Grand Duke, our treasury has been exhausted"
"Where's the money? Where's that much money?" Gregory was immediately dissatisfied, and his tone was full of reproach: "Where are the military expenditures supported by the Americans? Where have they been used?"
Andreas couldn¡¯t laugh or cry. The Grand Duke actually asked where all the money went? Doesn't he even know that most of the money was pocketed by himself?
However, he would not say these words under any circumstances.
"Your Majesty the Grand Duke, the war has left us unable to make ends meet." Andreas could only say vaguely: "Especially after the Ukrainian rebellion, we spent a large amount of military expenditures, so now our finances have become very When I get nervous, there is really no way to form a new legion.¡±
"Increase taxes and do everything possible!" The unhappy expression on Gregory's face became more and more obvious: "Gentlemen, this is a moment of life and death. Once Moscow falls into the hands of those people, all of us will be There will be no burial place! We will be hanged by those Germans! Gentlemen, today's difficulties are temporary. When we get through it safely, I promise that each of you will never forget your contribution to me. "
"The tax is already very heavy" Andreas said cautiously: "If it continues to increase, it will cause extreme dissatisfaction among those people"
"Don't worry about what those despicable guys think!" Gregory interrupted the words of his finance minister, and then turned his attention to Duyoshenko: "My Lord Commander, if the mob resists, you are sure Calm them down immediately?"
Duyoshenko respectfully replied: "I am willing to serve you, Your Excellency the Grand Duke!"
The Grand Duke felt very satisfied. At this time, Duyoshenko's fat face made him look less hateful. At this time, a person's loyalty can be tested more.
The only way to deal with those mobs is to suppress them mercilessly. £® £® £® £® £®

Flattery! Andreas cursed in his mind. Russia's political situation has reached such a difficult level that blind suppression will only further arouse people's dissatisfaction, and ultimatelyIt will be out of control later.
¡°Don¡¯t the Grand Duke and Duyoshenko know this?
But what else can I, the finance minister, say?
Gregory didn¡¯t care what others thought. In his opinion, with money, there is an army, and with an army, there is the capital to protect Moscow.
As for the dissatisfaction of the people, it is not within his consideration at all. £® £® £® £® £®
"What's going on with poor Lillipolsky?" At this time, Grigory finally remembered the death of Lillipolsky.
In fact, although he trusted Lillipolski, he didn't care much about his death. This was the same attitude he had towards all his subordinates.
As long as this person does not die at the hands of the rebel party, there will be no problem.
He had also asked Andreas before. According to the finance minister, Lillipolski might have been killed by Duyoshenko.
If it were in the past, Grigory would have severely punished Duyoshenko mercilessly and even thrown him into prison. However, the failure on the battlefield now makes him dare not take such rash actions. After all, now is the most critical time. When you need manpower. Especially Duyoshenko's "loyalty" to him just now, he also decided to let him make this matter a big deal.
It¡¯s nothing more than jealousy between men.
Duyoshenko did not know the true thoughts of the Grand Duke. When he heard the Grand Duke talking about this matter, the fat on his face could not help but tremble rapidly.
Khmeltsky knew that the time had come for him to come forward: "Dear Grand Duke, the assassination of the Security Minister is really heartbreaking. Although we found some evidence at the scene, what should I say? It is not good for the garrison commander, but after Our careful investigation does not rule out the possibility that this is a frame-up. From my personal attitude, I believe that the garrison commander is innocent, but the specific results need to continue to be investigated."
Duyoshenko felt relieved. £® £® £® £® £® But Andreas's expression changed. This is not something Khmeltsky has said before.
"Then continue to investigate." Gregory, whose mind was not on this at all, said nonchalantly: "But we must grasp what is the key point now."
"Yes, Your Majesty the Grand Duke, I will definitely do what you ask." At this time, Khmeltsky knew that the Grand Duke had gradually begun to trust him.
In fact, it¡¯s nothing. If you don¡¯t trust your own family, how can you still trust outsiders?
At this time, Gregory finally turned his mind to the issue he was most concerned about: "Mr. Migrosky, how is the Armenian oil field project going?"
"Everything is going on in an orderly manner" Migroski quickly replied: "Now, Mr. Lyman Rodney, the geological expert who is responsible for helping us successfully explore the oil field, is in charge of the project, and the progress is very good. Very quickly, and the first investment amount promised by Mr. Petrogov has arrived, and all the funds and manpower we have allocated are in place. I believe that we will have satisfactory results in a short time.¡±
This is the thing that worries Grigory the most, and it is also one of the reasons why he is determined to continue the decisive battle with the German army after the tragic defeat in Ukraine.
Russia can be defeated, but its own interests must not be lost. It would rather use the strength of the whole country to fight Germany to the death, and must protect the oil fields no matter what.
Once the oil field is exploited, it will bring a steady stream of money. For this reason, Gregory did not hesitate to use any means. £® £® £® £® £®
He can sacrifice Russia's interests and beg the Allies to send troops directly, or even quietly start talks with Germany. As long as his position is not shaken, he is willing to do anything. £® £® £® £® £®
¡°Perhaps it¡¯s time to give the Germans a taste of sweetness,¡± Grigory, the Grand Duke of Birstoka, thought in his mind. £® £® £® £® £®
Most of his own funds have been invested in the United States. For this oil field, he will not hesitate to spend military expenditures. If it cannot be successfully exploited, it will be the most terrible disaster.
After the Grand Duke finished explaining what he should explain, Milosevic hesitated for a moment: "Your Excellency, the Grand Duke, some small newspapers have been attacking and insinuating you recently."
Grigory frowned: "Mr. Milosevic, you are the Deputy Minister of Security. After Liliborski left us, you should take full responsibility. Don't you know how to deal with it? Those newspapers and reporters who insinuate and abuse the government?¡±
"Of course I know, His Excellency the Grand Duke." Milosevic's expression looked like it was very difficult to handle the matter: "The problem is, that was the journalist Boldolf."As a reporter who serves as editor-in-chief, he is a tough nut to crack. He has been thrown into prison countless times, and he is also strangely protected by some special people. £® £® £® £® £® Several times I was ready to arrest him, but I was warned by some prominent figures not to touch him. £® £® £® £® £® Even the U.S. Ambassador to Moscow met with me and said that Russia's freedom of speech must be protected. £® £® £® £® £® "
When he heard that the American ambassador was actually involved, Gregory's brows knitted together tightly.
He really didn¡¯t understand why a little reporter had the courage to go against him again and again. What he didn¡¯t understand even more was why a little reporter actually alerted the US Ambassador.
Is there any huge force behind this Boldorf?
I heard before that he was protected by the tycoon Fristoia. If this is really the case, it would be a bit difficult.
This damn Fristoia is very powerful, and I really don¡¯t dare to provoke him easily. The friends around him are all real powerful people. To a certain extent, they are even more powerful than holding on.
Such people are often the most terrifying. £® £® £® £® £® His Excellency the Grand Duke felt that he was a little troubled.
"He was strangely appointed as the editor-in-chief of the 'Moscow Pioneer'." Milosevic did not seem to notice the change in the Grand Duke's expression and continued: "This is a very influential newspaper in Moscow. It has always been It is constantly causing trouble for us. There was uncertain news before that Fristoia was the boss behind this newspaper, but Fristoia has never officially admitted it, and we have no conclusive evidence. "
"This old guy always brings trouble!" Gregory couldn't help but cursed fiercely, but there was some helplessness in his words: "Mr. Milosevic, I think you must communicate with Vladimir Putin." Listoia held a meeting to test his true attitude and at the same time, to see if he had any connection with the matter. He also warned him that although he had many friends helping him, he was after all dealing with a person. The government is the enemy. Oh, what did the damn Herald say about me?¡±
Milosevic hesitated and did not dare to say it. Gregory was a little impatient: "Say it, it has nothing to do with you."
"Yes, Your Excellency the Grand Duke." Milosevic took courage and said: "They actually accused you of embezzling state property and investing heavily abroad. They also accused you of using foreign aid funds to enrich your own pockets. . And they also published some so-called evidence."
"That's enough!" Gregory interrupted angrily.
But at this time, he felt extremely weak. £® £® £® £® £® How did that damn reporter know this? If those ignorant untouchables in Russia believe these words, they will cause themselves a lot of trouble.
"Go talk to that reporter again." Gregory barely controlled his emotions: "Let's see what he needs and see if we can bribe him. I'm not afraid of him. I've never done any of these things, but I He is a kind person, and I am not willing to kill all these tabloid reporters who are making up nonsense!¡±
In fact, everyone knows that the Grand Duke has a guilty conscience. He was afraid that what he had done would be completely exposed and that he would become a public enemy of the Russian people.
But at this point, is there any good solution? If Boldorf could really be bribed, these problems would not have arisen long ago.
"Go down, you all go down first." Gregory said irritably.
After all his men left, Grigory poured himself a glass of wine tiredly, drank it all in one gulp, and put down the glass heavily: "Ilya, my child, what do you think of these things?"
"I think the situation is not good for us." Ilya had nothing to hide in front of his father: "We have made too many enemies. Moreover, although the defeat on the battlefield is temporarily concealed by us, sooner or later others will know it. of."
"Yeah, this is what I'm most worried about." Gregory sighed: "We have many opponents, and they are all waiting for opportunities. If we make any mistakes in any step, we will die without a burial place. Yes. Elijah, it¡¯s time to make the necessary preparations.¡±
He paused there: "You continue to pay close attention to the direction of funds in the United States. The money there is all ours, and no mistakes are allowed. No one is allowed to handle it except you. And I will personally guard here. , to solve the troubles we are currently experiencing. Once the Armenian oil fields are successfully exploited, we will have a way to eliminate most of the opposition.The most important thing we should consider right now. £® £® £® £® £® "
Ilya agreed one by one, but he found that his father's brows were filled with deep worry and fear. £® £® £® £® £®
Yes, he can be sure that he saw it right. His father does have great fear. £® £® £® £® £®
£® £® £® £® £® £®
The Milosevics and Khmeltsky looked relaxed when they walked out of the Grand Duke's Palace.
It has begun, it has finally officially begun. The good show performed by Baron Alexon is proceeding step by step. The arrogant and greedy Gregory is walking into a huge tomb.
But this stupid guy walked in without even noticing.
By the time he woke up, it was already too late. He will be buried deep in anger and despair.
What could be more joyful than this? The harm that Gregory once caused them must be returned to him one by one.
Only Lonanova seemed a little unhappy. As her husband, Khmeltsky fully understood what his wife was thinking: "Lonanova, my dear wife, are you still worried about that old thing? Are you still worried about that old thing? Have you forgotten what they have given us? He has never regarded us as his own, so why should we feel sorry for him? "
Natalia also advised: "My sister, don't think about it so much. He only trusts his son, right? He has never really cared about us. Money is far more important to him than family members. It¡¯s important. We also have children to raise, can we just watch our children starve to death?¡±
"I understand all what you are saying" Lonanova sighed deeply: "But no matter what, he is our father."
"Please don't forget the Baron's instructions to us." Milosevic said coldly from the side.
Hearing the word "Baron", Lonanova closed her mouth.
Yes, don¡¯t go against the Baron no matter what. Her father is the most typical example.
At this time, a black car drove up and stopped in front of them. Mr. Capone poked his head out of the car: "Mr. Petergoff needs to see you immediately!"
Several people shuddered at the same time. After all, the Baron came back again! (To be continued.
