Struggle in Russia

骁 Recently, Li Xiao has been quite relaxed and comfortable. He inspected the company during the day and then continued to learn Russian. Now he has been able to communicate in Russian in Baba. Then the rest of the time, in addition to exercising his weak body, is to preside over the teaching and writing of lesson plans for cultural tuition classes.

These two jobs occupy most of his time and energy, and education is really very difficult, because you can't predict what kind of strangeness your students have.

Of course, Li Xiao has some ideas about the standards of his students. It must be quite painful to re-learn for these older students who have mostly gone to school for a day. Especially during the day they have heavy military training tasks, they are trained to be as tired as dogs, and then they have to listen to those drowsy cultural classes at night by dim kerosene lamps.

The slow progress of teaching is conceivable. It took a whole week for the entire soldiers to basically grasp the Cyrillic alphabet, which was slower than the turtle crawling.

"Company commander, according to the current teaching progress, I want to teach these people to read and write, I am afraid it will take ten years!"

但 "But they certainly won't serve in the army for ten years, so what's the significance of our work?"

"I'm sure, as long as you leave the barracks, these lazy bones will immediately forget all the words learned!"

What Li Xiao didn't think of was that it was not the students who first got up and rebelled, but the hard-working gardener. It took only three days for the hard-liner soldiers who were arrested by him to become stagnant from the initial enthusiasm to depression. On the fourth day, if he did not personally urge them, these teachers would like to directly pick their picks.

Of course, this only allowed the teachers to persist for four more days. The unusually slow teaching progress, the stupid students, made the teachers' teaching enthusiasm comparable to that of the scumbags, which faded away quickly.

骁 Li Xiao can only continue to encourage them: "Gentlemen, our teaching progress is indeed not satisfactory. More difficulties than expected ... But this does not mean that our work is meaningless!"

"... At the beginning, we will definitely encounter huge challenges, but the significance of our work is not to challenge backward traditions, to inspire and educate foolish people, let them open their eyes to the world, and let them talk to the ignorance and ignorance of the past. Goodbye ... "

"... If we can't overcome this difficulty, it will never be possible to explain our doctrine, our philosophy to the general public ... our country will remain closed and ignorant until it is destroyed!"

"Gentlemen, I believe you don't want to see this kind of result! And our job now is to ignite the spark, be the star, and be the pioneer. Everything you do now will be remembered by history and stay in the annals forever!"

I have to say that Li Xiao's encouragement is quite effective. He has seized the most urgent psychological needs of these people-they need to identify and praise. As long as they are a little bit motivated and stimulated, they will reorganize and block God and Buddha.

Of course, just hitting chicken blood is not enough, and the mental stimulation must be supplemented with material. In addition to praising the teachers every day, Li Xiao gave the teachers special treatment with a big hand. They did not need to continue to work hard and did not need to perform exercises. In the season of dripping into ice, you can stay in the warm company and read, debate, and write, except that you cannot leave the camp to be free. Meals are milk and meat, coffee in the morning, black tea in the afternoon, and a small stove dinner every week, which is quite moist.

This made Boris envious and jealous and hate: "As for giving such good treatment? They are just hard-working prisoners. If you don't work honestly, get out and dig coal!"

"You can't just use strong people for cultural people," Li Xiao said with a slack mouth. "The whip drives them to work, and the carrots seduce them to work. The efficiency is completely different ... It doesn't cost more than three or five How much can I eat? Besides, I do n’t have enough manuscripts! ”

Speaking of manuscript fees, Li Xiao was a bit embarrassed. Originally, he only planned to write something to fool Leonid. Whoever thought of this deputy head took it seriously and commented highly on Li Xiao's articles, except In addition to communicating the contents of the article, the letter even helped Li Xiao submit.

With the endorsement of the Crown Prince's aide and the duke's duke, Russian domestic publications turned on the green light and published many articles. He even submitted articles abroad, and Li Xiao's articles were published in professional journals in Britain and France.

I have to say that the Russian literati in this era was painful and happy. The pain was the heavy shackles imposed by Nicholas I, which could make people breathless. But at the same time, Nicholas I also gave generous rewards to those literati who were willing to say good things for him.

普 Pushkin received huge sponsorship from Nicholas I that year, and was able to marry a young and beautiful wife (really a very young wife, not a third) in St. Petersburg.

Nicolas I even made a lot of money in order to paint his face with fat and even made a lot of joke. In 1839, in order to reverse his brutal and rude image in European countries, Nicholas I invited the famous French writer Marquis Coutinus to travel to Russia on the suggestion of No. 1 dog leg Benkendorf. Marquis wrote articles praising Nicholas I.

The plan was quite good. Both Nicholas I and Benkendorf took it for granted: The Marquis of Coutinus was the descendant of a noble who was sent to the guillotine during the French Revolution ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ because both grandfather and father were revolutionized Beheading, I also support authoritarianism, and I should appreciate Nicholas I, the great monarchy.

The final result was that the Marquis of Coutinus published a book, "Russia in 1839", after a return to his country, which severely tortured Nicholas I and his authoritarian court. The Marquis said in the book:

"You can only experience the freedom of other European countries if you have lived in the desert of Russia."

"Everything is suppressed there, timid with fear, everything is dark and silent, everything blindly follows an invisible stick!"

"The most insignificant person, as long as he can please the Tsar, he can become a significant figure in Russia ... As the Tsar said: 'In Russia, the noble is the person who is talking to me. Only when talking to me He is noble! '"

"Slaves exist in many countries, but to see so many court slaves, you have to go to Russia."

"Everything in Russia is illusory, what a beautiful city Moscow is! It keeps showing me the most absurd things in history: there are the world's largest clocks, but they never ring. The largest artillery in the world, but it has never been able to fire a shell. "

The natural Nicholas I was half annoyed, yelled at Benkendorf face-to-face, and then sadly said, "Remorse": "Why am I stupid enough to communicate with that hooligan!"

Anyway, Nicholas I's attitude towards cultural people was complicated. It was a big stick with carrots. It was terrible to kill, and it was also bold as a tyrant and a second generation to give money. Li Xiao's manuscript fees during this time should not be too cool, enough to repair his broken house in the hay market.
