Chapter 519
The turmoil caused by Leonid was immediately suppressed. He himself was dismissed and sent to the Military Law Office for review, and some of his officers were also punished one by one. He was forced to discharge from the army and was directly expelled.
And this also greatly deterred the officers of other units of the garrison army. Like Leonid before, they were quite critical of the Governor's Palace order, and they immediately became honest. After all, even Leonid, who is so tough in the backstage, can clean up as soon as he says, and cleaning them up is not as simple as drinking water and eating.
The garrison army immediately became honest, and no one dared to fight against Dmitri, which made his subsequent work a lot smoother.
It's just that the impact of this incident did not end there. As Leonid wrote to Paskovich to denounce Wallachia's passive and slack preparations for war, even greater disturbances are yet to come.
The first to feel a headache about this was Prince Mikhail. According to his original plan, as the chief of staff and actual commander-in-chief of the war against Turkey, he will definitely support Leonid well.
According to him, Leonid has been in Wallachia for so many years and is very familiar with the situation there, so it should not be too easy to make a contribution.
But who would have thought that Leonid would be removed from office and kicked out of Wallachia in the blink of an eye. Judging from his posture, he might have fallen out with Alexei. Do you think he can not be overwhelmed?
Knowing the importance of this battle, he knows the importance of Wallachia too well. It is not only the frontline battlefield, but also the most important logistics base. Without Wallachia as the backing, even if he has hundreds of thousands of troops under his command, he still has no way to take Turkey.
And now that his silly nephew has fallen out with such an important frontier official, considering that the two are good friends who have played together for a long time, this is even more regrettable.
"Isn't that silly boy brainless? Make such a fuss at this time!"
Prince Mikhail was so angry that he wanted to lift the table, he called the adjutant and asked in detail: "What did Leonid do, why did he suddenly turn his face?"
When the adjutant explained clearly what happened, especially when Leonid directly contradicted and humiliated Dmitry Milyutin, Prince Mikhail felt his head hurt even more.
It doesn't matter if you just get angry with Alexei, after all, the friendship for so many years is still there, and there is still a chance to repair the relationship in the future. But to offend Dmitry Milyutin for no reason is a brain damage!
Duke Mikhail did not dare to underestimate Dmitry, even if he was only a lieutenant general and the commander of the garrison, there were only a few people under his command. But you have to see who is behind him!
As the second confidant of Crown Prince Alexander,
Is that something that can be blamed casually? Fortunately, you took the lead in jumping back when someone just took office as a new official and took office. Who is it that doesn't clean up your hands?
If it were Duke Mikhail, Dmitry would have to teach Leonid a lesson, otherwise he would not be able to command the troops later, which is a taboo for generals.
What's worse is that you also took a group of middle and low-level officers to jump back together. Do you think you died fast enough?
Just looking at these two points, it is impossible for Alexei to help Duke Mikhail, and he has to kill his relatives to let him go, or even send this guy to a court-martial, because this is already the case. Proper disobedience and disrespect.
"Why did Leonid dislike Dmitri?" Prince Mikhail asked, pulling his beard.
The adjutant glanced at him and replied cautiously: "It seems that he is not satisfied with the construction of fortifications. General Leonid thinks it is a waste of time and energy..."
Well, Prince Mikhail understood right away, he naturally knew what kind of temperament that nephew was, as long as national righteousness or religious jihad was involved, he would immediately change into a different person. And unfortunately, the mess in front of him happens to be related to these two, so it's normal for him to have convulsions.
"Say hello to the Military Law Department," Prince Mikhail pinched his forehead and ordered, "Let them fix that bastard well and give him some strength!"
The adjutant almost thought that there was something wrong with his ears. Could it be that Duke Mikhail was out of his mind and went crazy to deal with his family instead of venting their anger? Why?
He carefully said a few good words to Leonid: "Marshal, although the nature of not carrying out the orders of the superiors is a bit bad, there is a reason for this incident. Do it instead of repairing some fortifications, isn’t that playing the harp! It’s normal for General Leonid to have opinions!”
Prince Mikhail glanced up at him, and asked slowly: "Do you think this is normal? There is no need to build fortifications to prepare for war?"
The adjutant was taken aback by the question, and subconsciously replied: "Where is the use of fortifications to deal with the Turks? Our fierce offensive can beat them to pieces. How can we give them a chance to fight back!"
Prince Mikhail pinched his temples again immediately. He felt that the headache was getting worse and worse. It seemed that since he was forced to be the chief of the hapless general staff, his headache became worse every day.
"There are no chances on the battlefield!" Duke Mikhail taught, "Even if you face the cowardly Turks, you must be fully prepared. There is nothing wrong with building fortifications. This is no excuse for disobeying orders! Soldiers obey orders Blessed duty, if Leonid doesn't even have this awareness, then what kind of soldier is he!"
Speaking of this, Prince Mikhail snorted coldly: "Let the Military Law Department sharpen his mind. This time, he was lucky and didn't make any big troubles. What if I'm not here in the future? Who will wipe his ass!"
The adjutant left obediently, but it could be seen that he still complained about Leonid and felt that his marshal was too strict.
But he didn't know that Duke Mikhail didn't think he was too harsh, and even thought that such punishment was not enough. He knew that it might be difficult to learn a lesson with Leonid's temper. This little punishment is just a little rain for him. Back then, Duke Alexander locked him in a stable to think about his mistakes, but do you think he thought about it?
It's not so paranoid and so opinionated that sometimes it makes you want to slap him because it's so irritating.
"Turn it off, it's better than nothing!"
Prince Mikhail sighed again, then stared blankly at the huge map of Bulgaria and Wallachia on the wall.
In fact, this picture has long been in his mind, and he knows how to march and where to capture, but because there is no secret at all, the Turks he knows will definitely know, so as long as Turkey is not stupid, There will definitely be precautions and arrangements...
