Struggle in Russia

Vol 2 Chapter 543: Everyone has ambitions (Part 1)

  Menshkov didn’t know that his good subordinates had sold him clean, of course, even if he knew it, it would be too late. Who would let Mark Mikheevich have too many secrets!

   As the saying goes, if people don't know what they can do, the wicked things they have committed will be exposed sooner or later. Menshkov has been at ease for most of his life, and it is almost time for him to pay the price.

   But it will take some time. After all, this is one of the top top bosses in Russia. If you want to take him down, even if it is the Grand Duke Constantine's action and the evidence is sufficient, it will take a lot of hands and feet.

   During this period, he still turned his gaze back to Vienna first. Li Xiao had been active there for a while, and he had touched on the relevant situation.

   "Duke, I am going to return to Pest tomorrow. Vienna does not need me to stay here for the time being. You are enough!"

Duke Alexander Gorchakov actually didn’t want to let Li Xiao leave. Someone helped him a lot these days and gave him a lot of pertinent suggestions, which is a preliminary setting for the direction and focus of Austria’s diplomatic work in the future. .

   It's a pity that such a powerful subordinate has been let go. The wastes sent to him by the country are good at blowing water except for the sister, but they are not really effective.

   Nor can I blame the Duke of Alexander for making trouble, because diplomacy these days is basically the privilege of the nobility. If you want to be a good diplomat, you must first have a noble background. You can't be an ordinary little noble. At least you have to be an earl, and you have to be a powerful earl close to the royal family.

   Otherwise, you won't be able to enter this circle. But the problem is that although the children of the nobles have social advantages and are easy to integrate into the aristocratic circles of various countries, the problem is that the abilities of these sons are uneven. Even with the teachings of their parents, their outlooks on life and the world are diverse.

   It's okay to come across those who are motivated and want to do a career, and it will be brought out after the hardening. But the problem is that most aristocratic children are slacking off, arrogance and **** are the norm, they are more keen to flirt with secluded girls to drink parties instead of doing practical things.

   In this way, such a group of people going abroad to be diplomats, mixed with all kinds of sensuality, basically treat their job as a trifle, either perfunctory, or playing a day as a monk and hitting the clock, it is really lackluster.

   To tell the truth, the Duke of Alexander sometimes prefers to use those civilian children who have gone to college and have a good education and want to get ahead. They are more professional, more motivated, obedient and willing to do things, unlike those nobles who can't support the wall with lazy donkeys.

   But the problem is, as mentioned earlier, the diplomacy industry is basically the monopoly of the aristocracy, and civilians have the ability but are not treated, and it is difficult to enter the circle!

   Anyway, the Duke of Alexandria has always had a headache for diplomatic talents, and it was easy to run into a powerful Li Xiao, so naturally he wanted to die and didn't want to let it go.

   The only thing that makes the Duke Alexander feel pity is that although someone has good conditions, he is really not a diplomat. Even if he wants to leave someone, it is impossible. Moreover, someone going to Pest is also doing business. The Hungarian side is related to the overall situation in the future, and it really needs someone to take care of it.

   "Hey, I really want you to stay and help me like this!" Duke Alexander exclaimed, "My job with you is more than ten times easier. In my opinion, you should be born in diplomacy!"

   "You are absurdly praised! I just made some additions and improvements on the good foundation you laid."

   Li Xiao hurriedly humbled a bit. He was very clear about his abilities, but was just taking advantage of the traverser's advantage to make a bit of advanced layout. It is really impossible for him to do diplomacy and be on his own.

   The Duke of Alexander smiled, and suddenly asked: "Your Excellency, if I take the liberty to ask, do you have any plans for the future?"

   Li Xiao was a little dazed. He didn't understand why the Duke Alexander asked about this. Wasn't he talking about diplomacy just now?

Seeing Li Xiao startled a little, Duke Alexander bluntly said: "In my opinion, your stay in the Navy is really a waste. It's not that you don't have military talent, but I think your talent is more political. , Your control of the overall situation of the world and your sensitivity to the current situation are all I have never seen in my life... You are naturally suitable for politics, not the army!" New 81 Chinese website update the fastest computer terminal: https://

   Li Xiao probably understood Duke Alexander’s intentions. He should be trying to persuade him to change careers and persuade him to leave the army and mix politics.

For a while, Li Xiao was a little silent, because he had considered related issues before. Objectively speaking, Duke Alexander was justified. He really has no military talent. In addition to reading some war histories and memoirs as a traveler, he played some war simulation games. , The others are totally ignorant.

   To say bluntly, as a soldier or officer, Li Xiao must be unqualified. Reluctantly staying in the army, that is, able to display a bit of the foresight of the traverser, and really let him command the battle, I am afraid it is a foreign version of Zhao Kuo.

   On the contrary ~ www.ltnovel.com~ Political affairs are completely different. Although he still lacks relevant experience, he is skilled at relevant historical and historical figures. The advantages and disadvantages of various policies and history also help him understand. As long as he is not brain-dead, it shouldn't be too simple to get ahead.

   For a while, Li Xiao did indeed have the idea to break away from the army and enter the political arena directly. But soon he personally rejected this idea, because after some trade-offs, he felt that entering politics is not a good choice.

   Although it seems that he is more suitable for politics, but with his old yin-force uncle, there is much room for him to play even if he enters the political arena. That family guarded him strictly, the mixed army was beating and squeezing out every once in a while, and entering the political arena was even more arousing their sensitive nerves.

  If he really made some achievements, Nicholas I must have become more jealous of him. At that time, I am afraid it was not beat and squeezed, but he was directly abolished, leaving him no room for performance.

  From this perspective, entering politics is even more dangerous. Moreover, there are more villains in the political arena, and Li Xiao is even more unconnected. He climbs up step by step, and God knows how many years it will take to get ahead. In addition, the Russian political arena has always been tricky. If it is not possible, it will be implicated in some terrible incident. If it is not, it may be necessary to go to the Peter and Paul Fortress to eat in prison or to repair the earth in Siberia. The risk here is too great!

Therefore, Li Xiao thinks it is better to be in the army now. Although it is still difficult to get ahead, the risk is much smaller. Moreover, if you seize the opportunities in the last few years, the possibility of doing so is still relatively high, even if there is Nicholas I. Staring, it will not be nothing!
