Chapter 674: Incomprehensible Personnel Arrangements

Soloviev did not stay in Odessa for too long. Little Kamensky's health deteriorated again in the past few days. Even though Anna had come to his side, it did not help.

What an unfortunate person, Solovyov thought so. Perhaps his mother was even more unfortunate.

But speaking of it, Sergei Kamensky's descendants include Mirren, a professional queen actor, and a Bond girl.

As for Nikolai's branch, he had never been married in history, so this branch did not have any inheritance.

Of course, Nikolai became a son-in-law because Alexei Orlov had no legitimate son, which was beneficial to the distribution of property. But poor Anna, who finally got married to one of the best young talents in Russia, passed away so quickly.

"Anyah, we can't stay here with you. I've experienced this kind of pain. If there's anything, you can tell me. If the housekeeper and servants are not good enough, I can ask my cousins ​​to help you arrange it."

"Thank you, Misha. But Kolya also told me. When he was conscious yesterday, he told me that he would entrust the child to you for care in the future."

"It's the same to raise one more child. Tell me if you need anything. In the future, whether you live in Moscow or St. Petersburg, you can go to Katya. After all, I'm not always at home."

That's what she said, and little Kamensky's health has gradually deteriorated these days.

The countess just nodded, with tears in her eyes.

Then they had to go to Kiev, and they would inevitably bother Miloradovich there.

The thing that Solovyov was most curious about was probably that he had good conditions, but he never got married, unlike Yermolov who didn't get married because he felt "poor".

But at this moment, there is nothing much to say. On the one hand, we have to lament the misfortune of Kamensky, and the rest is probably the personnel arrangements in the Russian army.

"Brother Misha, the situation is like this. The Danube Corps and the Macedonian Corps are mostly experienced veterans in the previous war against France. On the front battlefield, Barclay's army group."

"That is also arranged. According to this deployment, the 1st Army is on the front, the 2nd Army is on the flank, and the 3rd Army and the Danube Corps monitor the flank direction. Even if Austria and Prussia agree to something, they can't be fully trusted."

"I think Prussia will definitely find it profitable and send some people to follow the French, but if the situation improves, they will turn back."

"This is very obvious. These Germans are unreliable, and our side is always criticized. . "

"I even think that Barclay should be called a strategist, not suitable to be a minister of war or a commander. If he takes on an important position, there should be someone to assist him. "

"What you said always feels weird. "

"It's weird. Barclay wanted to be promoted to general, and a group of people came out to obstruct him. These people are all senior lieutenant generals. It's okay for those who retired to their homes. Some people have simply left the army and become real jesters in the court without any achievements, but they are pointing fingers at active military personnel. "

"Misha, sometimes you say bad things. "

But Miloradovic, he is changing into a beautiful dress at this moment, and it seems that he is going to participate in some activities.

"Are you going to meet the local noble lady again?"

"Ah, after all, I don't have a wife. Sometimes I envy you for having a good wife. It's hard to find a girl like Katya, who can stay at home and help with events."

"Don't you consider finding one?"

"I don't think it's necessary now, and you know this problem well. Except for Apraksin, only your marriage is happy. Poor Kolya is about to fail in Odessa."

"Yes, I spent some time with him in Odessa before I came here, and his condition is getting worse and worse."

In addition, Miloradovich has been a bit of a playboy. Even if he says he wants to get married now, young girls and widows who are willing to be his wife can line up in the second row.

"Don't think about those unhappy things. How can you arrange your wife and children to go to Moscow from the warm south?"

"I haven't thought about it yet, and there are no new instructions from Petersburg. I am even just a general of the aide-de-camp now."

"Then forget all this and do what you like."

In fact, it is still the spring of 1811. In the winter of 1810 to 1811, the Russian army was indeed reorganizing. Barclay was adjusting the troops, and the Russian army was expanding its troops and adjusting its organization. It can even be said that after this set of combined punches, the Russian army's troops have improved a lot in both quantity and quality.

What's more, there is Arakcheev who is urging various arsenals to speed up the production of equipment, and the weapons of the Russian army are also improving.

Even Solovyov heard that the eight infantry regiments of the Guards were preparing to fully replace the rifles he made, and the artillery equipment was also being updated. Although the Guards Artillery was recently disbanded, it was also assigned to the various Guards regiments. The rest of the artillery units were concentrated at the division level to establish a field artillery brigade.

These are all good things, and considering the advancement of technology, the Russian army is also using a large number of new equipment.

It was just the arrangement of the generals, and I didn't understand what it was for.

What Solovyov knew was that among the generals who performed well in 1807, only a few people such as Bagration and Bagowut would be appointed in this direction, and there were some personnel appointment arrangements in it.

It may be that Kutuzov and Tormasov were more comfortable using those people in the south, or it may be a personnel arrangement.

When he came to Miloradovich, considering that his lifestyle was not related to his own, he liked balls and lively scenes, while he liked small-scale salons and gatherings more, so he did not go to participate in this event with him.

Besides, he was indeed a little tired. Although he said that he was not afraid of infectious diseases, it was just that he had a stronger immunity, otherwise he would have fallen ill.

After such a long journey, he really needed a good rest.

As for what to do next, he could go east from Kiev and from Kharkov to Tula to meet Count Bobulinsky. If he went to Smolensk, Andrei was not at home at the moment. If he went to Moscow.

To be honest, he did not like the environment in Moscow very much, and he thought about the situation there in more than a year.

If some people were to move in advance, it would probably make people waver and cause panic when it was unnecessary.

So, he just wrote a letter to Pierre. After all, the richest man in Moscow was an honest and reliable person. If he wanted to divorce, he could help him. Helen, this woman

Although the "little fairy" was lustful and dissolute, she did not think of harming others. It was just that she had too much fun and hurt the face of her husband and the Tsar's cousin.

As for Helen, Pierre has not made any comments yet, but he is too right.

The whole family is the same, all bad.

But Pierre did not have this idea at this time, and I don't know what he is thinking about.

There are still many Masonic activities now, and maybe he is shifting his attention to them.

"That priest may be a Freemason"

Soloviev also felt a little tired, and he would not feel anything after a good sleep.

Because of the long-term marching and fighting, his work and rest time is always affected, and he often can't sleep at night.

That comet really makes people feel bad.

When some short-period comets pass by, there is always nothing good.

If someone likes to interpret it this way, he is interested in breaking the superstitious activities, after all, the things said in divination are always ambiguous.

So, when he couldn't sleep, he looked up at the sky again.

The next time Halley's Comet came was in 1835, and he could almost catch up. Speaking of it, the first time this comet was observed and recorded was when King Wu defeated King Zhou.

Let alone this aspect, he was also thinking about other things.

The situation is not very optimistic, and Speransky's tax reform is underway recently.

There is no mistake in the content of the first post. Take a look at the book forum on 6-9!

Interestingly, because of the taxation, even if Russia participated in the continental blockade of Britain, in fact, only the trade with Britain was affected. The overall economic environment of the country was still very stable, and even part of the fiscal deficit was eliminated, and the country's economic situation even improved.

This is very fun. It seems that Alexander has to make trouble this time because of the deprivation of territory by his relatives in Oldenburg and the erratic performance of the French side.

However, in Napoleon's view, Alexander probably didn't listen to him. How could he do this?

Therefore, the diplomatic struggle between the two sides will gradually evolve into a more intense conflict between France and Russia, and directly to the point of war.

Each side must be prepared, but it is hard to say which direction it will go in the end. It is better to avoid war. Choosing war is always the behavior of warmongers.

Seeing that others can do it, he also thinks he can do it, but Napoleon probably can't do it sometimes. After all, Russia is so big, and his logistics work is also a huge problem.

Solovyov's mind was very clear, but this year was probably not only about war preparations, but also about the affairs of the court and some wonderful arrangements of fate.

It seems that he really has to go to Moscow, but along the way he has to take, starting from Vitebsk and heading east, to see the situation along the way.

This kind of trip is more convenient for him, a relatively free and unemployed aide-general.

I don't even know if Davydov has lived in his home in Borodino recently. This guy was born there, and the nearby manor is his family's property.

There are a lot to gain and lose, but it is clear that the scorched earth policy will eventually fight the French to the death, and the British may get the advantage in the future.

Yes, it's the British again, which is very helpless. You can't avoid those damn British. They will pay money at that time, but they will do very little, and more benefits are still in their hands.

Another thing he didn't know was that Paul's first embargo on Britain was just a stone thrown into the water.

However, inflation in Britain is very serious, and the British are now completely shaken. If France had finally thought about solving the current problems instead of going to war with Russia, Napoleon might have been able to keep the fruits of his victory.

There are many things to think about, but there is nothing much to say after such a long journey.

He did not make an appointment, but when he returned to St. Petersburg, he had to start urging Nicholas to study.

Grand Duke Constantine had long shown that he had no interest in the throne, and Solovyov, as the former chief of staff of the Guards, also knew this privately.

Therefore, Nicholas' education seemed to be more important, but he was ranked higher, but he was the least educated among the four brothers.

And there was another troublesome thing, that is, a person who was diligent but did not know what to do, this was the most troublesome.

This was not just a matter of failing mathematics. Bagowut's sisters were his teachers when he was a child, and Nicholas' problems were also explained at the time.

It seems that the education problem of this grand duke may be a bigger problem than the current possible war in 1812. At least his position is here.

Go to Moscow, and still have to meet Pierre to see how he is doing recently.

In addition, it is to take care of some friends.

Natasha will have to wait until she has some experience and the past two years have passed before she can really mature and eventually be with Pierre.

The rest is probably to seek a position as a military commander for herself and use her skills in the war.

But this is also very dangerous. Every time she fights with the French, it is very dangerous.

He even complained in his heart on the balcony that the time travelers want to be emperors just for the sake of taking shortcuts, and they become generals and marshals for this. They don’t know that if they are not careful, they can easily die on the battlefield.

It’s not that he has never been injured before, and he was chopped by the French with a saber, but because he was a grenadier at the time, the bishop’s hat has some defensive effect.

But in the future, it may not be okay. The shells make a big hole, and the bullets make a small hole, and they don’t always hit.

But if they hit, it may be fatal.

But there are also some people who are extremely lucky. They are hit by shells several times, and the final result is probably just a concussion.

Some people may be hit by bullets many times in their lives, but they just can’t die, and they live a long life.

He still didn't know what his fate would be.

But now he had to hurry to Moscow, and he had to go faster. This was not a march, and if he changed horses in the middle, he could go very fast. (End of this chapter)
