Chapter 3 Divergence
Whenever Vladimir was looking for trouble, Li Xiao couldn't help thinking how great it would be if Leonid was still there, and he didn't ask this good friend to stay for too long, at least one more year would be good.
Now their reform is at the critical moment, and the railway has just started construction, but there is a shit-stirring stick for bad things. Can you tell Li Xiao to be happy?
"Maybe it would be better for Leonid to stay," Vishniak said with a wry smile, "but you also know that his ambition is not here, he prefers to lead troops to fight, he is a natural soldier, dealing with these politics He's really impatient with trivial shit. He's complained countless times in the past two years!"
Sighing, Vishniak persuaded: "Andrei, as the saying goes, everyone has his own ambitions, you can't force Leonid to do something he doesn't like, it's too...too unreasonable Already!"
Vishniak understood Leonid very well. Although he didn't particularly agree with the latter's choice, he could understand how depressed it is for a person to live in depression and irritability all the time. I think that when he first joined the 748 regiment, he was almost depressed.
"That would always give us some time to prepare, let us plan ahead, but he submitted the application without saying a word, which caught us off guard! This is what a friend should do! Doesn't he know that this call Disrupt our overall layout?"
What makes Li Xiao angry the most is actually here. Leonid really feels depressed and wants to leave. He will definitely not force him to stay. As long as the other party tells him in advance, let him run a business in advance to find someone who is beneficial to him. Just to fill the void.
But Leonid made the report without saying a word, and the sudden incident caught Li Xiao by surprise. This made him very angry!
Li Xiao suddenly furiously said: "He is selfish and only cares about himself, and he doesn't care about the life and death of our friends at all!"
This outburst came so suddenly that Vishniak and Boris were a little caught off guard, because the words were too serious, and they were simply accusing Leonid of having a problem with his character.
"this……"
"that……"
Vishniak and Boris really wanted to defend Leonid, but it was difficult to find a reason. After a long time, Vishniak said: "You also know that he is always straightforward. The position should be directly reported to the superior, not privately handed over, his temper is like this, it is definitely not that he does not regard us as friends!"
It should be said that Vishniak's defense is reasonable, because Leonid is such a pure person,
He has never liked the kind of small gestures of giving and receiving privately. With his personality, if he really plans to change jobs, he will directly report and apply.
But Li Xiao still refused to accept it, he said angrily: "Then he should tell us, isn't it not allowed to tell his friends that he wants to change jobs! But he just didn't say anything, he must catch us off guard to be happy!"
Vishniak and Boris were speechless for a while, because Leonid is really worth complaining about this point-it doesn’t matter if you report yourself to apply for a job change, but it’s normal to notify your friends, especially if you also know that you The position is particularly critical and may have a major impact, so shouldn't it be more important to call your friends in advance?
Anyway, if you want to say that Li Xiao has a small belly, it may be a little bit, but it is not without reason that he got angry. Because of these details, Leonid did a little poorly, but if you want to say that Leonid should not have done it at all, and he will not.
It's up to Li Xiao to figure it out on his own, but now he is obviously very concerned about it, and he has already gotten into the corner, so he can only be so frozen for a while.
However, there is one thing that Li Xiao really blamed Leonid by mistake. It wasn't that Leonid gave him time to prepare in advance, so there would definitely be a satisfactory result. Not to mention that Li Xiao can avoid that bastard Vladimir from coming to Bucharest by finding a good relationship, because even if he is not the bastard who comes, it will be another similar bastard. The man Alexei liked came to be the commander of the city defense of Bucharest.
why? Because the importance of Wallachia is becoming more and more prominent, and Alexei, the governor, is getting better and better!
Do you find it contradictory? Nicholas I should have more trust in Alexei if he was a good governor. Why would he deliberately find fault?
This is the emperor's mind!
For Nicholas I, the more important Wallachia was, and the better Alexei did, the more attention was required. Because the power of the governor is too great, if Alexei is allowed to do things, it is likely to make Alexei over-inflated, and what Nicholas I was most worried about was that his courtiers were too over-inflated and finally too big to get rid of.
So the better Alexei does, the more he will send someone who can constrain Alexei to Bucharest. If Wallachia becomes one-hearted with Alexei, then he, the emperor Didn't he lose control of Wallachia!
Nicholas I had the instinct to guard against Alexei, no matter how Li Xiao prepared, it was impossible to send someone who would make them happy to be the commander of the Bucharest city defense. So it doesn't matter whether Leonid has notified in advance, even if Li Xiao goes to the event in advance, it is meaningless, and it is more likely that the bamboo basket will be empty.
It's a pity that Li Xiao didn't realize this, or in other words, the smooth sailing in the past few years made him involuntarily start to swell. He feels that he is already a character, can do some great things, and is no longer a pawn to be manipulated by others.
It's just that this is really just an illusion. He is actually a small person to the letter. The previous successes and victories were more achieved by relying on his advantages as a traverser and Nicholas I's contempt for him.
When these advantages became smaller and smaller, and when Nicholas I began to face him squarely, he still imagined that it was as smooth as before, and it was really just a dream.
In fact, Count Rostovtsev, who is far away in St. Petersburg, has already seen this point. He has already reminded old Igor to pay attention. With the change of status, if Li Xiao is still the same as before, then he will definitely be kicked!
It's a pity that neither the old Igor nor Li Xiao took this reminder to heart, because the past two years were so smooth for them that they got carried away.
"It's not a bad thing to hit a wall! The younger you are, the better it is to hit a wall!" Count Rostovtsev smiled and said to the air, "It's better than falling off a cliff when you are in a high position and being smashed to pieces." Be strong!"
