Struggle in Russia

The second noble youth in the hero's dream who is engaged in the education of serf children who does not want to go to college.

This was probably Tolstoy's first impression on Prince Mikhail. Anyway, Prince Mikhail was very speechless and distressed. If possible, he would have asked Lao Tuo to see a doctor to see if there was any mental problem.

There are so many inexplicable ideas, one hammer here and one stick here, what is this going to do?

Anyway, Duke Mikhail thinks that Lao Tuo is a brat who can't grow up, his mind is full of too many fantasies, and his outlook on life and the world have problems. It is best for such a person to stay as far away from the army as possible. Once in the army, he is definitely a troublemaker.

It's just that Tolstoy, who has little experience, didn't realize that he was sentenced to death by Duke Mikhail just after his military dream began. He was still eloquently talking about his ideas, as if he came here today not to apply for a job but to give a speech, to persuade Duke Mikhail to accept his ideas.

From this aspect, Tolstoy is indeed very immature. He is an impetuous young man with no capital. He can say what he thinks of and do whatever he wants. .

"Have you received military training?" Prince Mikhail asked suddenly.

Tolstoy was obviously taken aback. He had never thought about such a question before he wanted to be a soldier. Because in his cognition, being a soldier is not just asking someone to intercede, then changing into a uniform, and then getting a gun, and then you can flex your muscles.

Tolstoy never thought about military training, but he knew how to shoot a gun. When he was in his ancestral home in the country, he and his eldest brother and second brother often went to the forest to shoot pheasants and wild geese. So he can fire a gun, and his marksmanship seems to be passable.

In addition, when they were young, their brothers often played role-playing games with the children of the serfs. The children of the serfs played the role of the French invading army, and their brothers played the heroes of 1812 like Sergey Volkonsky, often in war games.

These should be considered military training, right?

Duke Mikhail immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He was really worried that Tolstoy would directly reply that he had received military training, which would make it difficult for him. Fortunately, this bear kid has only played military games, which is really great.

"My young friend!" Prince Mikhail tried to make himself appear more kind and kind, "These are not enough!"

"War is cruel. Not only do you have to learn how to shoot a gun, but you also have to be able to shoot accurately. The most important thing is to have received drills...otherwise you will be at a loss when you get into the army. I can't take a man who is...unprepared for everything The battlefield, that is not only irresponsible to you, but also irresponsible to other boys..."

Tolstoy was a little disappointed. He really wanted to be a soldier and wanted to change his life of doing nothing. But at the same time, he also felt that Prince Mikhail's excuse was justified. He really knew very little about the war and the army, and he could almost understand nothing. This kind of self is indeed not suitable for the battlefield, and it is indeed not responsible enough.

"Thank you for your frankness and responsibility, Duke, I think you are right!" Tolstoy said gratefully: "I really need to strengthen my military training. I am not yet a qualified soldier. I will double my military training." Try to reach the standard as soon as possible!”

This answer made Prince Mikhail really relieved, and finally sent the brat away. After a few days, this guy full of fantasies will forget about joining the army and will never bother him again.

It can only be said that Duke Mikhail doesn't know Tolstoy too well. This man is a bit stubborn. If he thinks he wants to be a soldier, he must be one!

"Dear Your Excellency, as a veteran, you must be very good at military training. Am I lucky to be able to conduct military training under your command?"

It was as if Prince Mikhail had eaten a fly. One second he thought he had gotten rid of the brat Tolstoy, but the next second the brat posted it in a more annoying way.

Looking at Tolstoy with long sideburns and a light beard on his lips,

Prince Mikhail began to reflect on whether he had been deceived by the other party's honest appearance. Is this kid pretending to be stupid on purpose?

Tolstoy, who was repeatedly sized up by Duke Mikhail, did not feel embarrassed at all, let alone felt that he had done anything wrong. Sincerity is written all over his face, and his eyes are shining like a cute animal.

But this cute creature didn't make Duke Mikhail feel cute, but disgusted. If he could, he would definitely punch this cute creature hard in the face, and give this cute creature a big panda eye.

Unfortunately, Duke Mikhail couldn't do that. Tolstoy's background is too strong, so strong that he has to give face. Even if he didn't beat this guy but just refused his request that sounded reasonable, there would be rumors about his inhumanity in the noble circle tomorrow.

Duke Mikhail hated being the object of gossip, so he had to force himself to reluctantly agree to Mengwu's request, let this naive, imaginative and inappropriate guy enter his staff, and he had to be given a beautiful title of adjutant.

The thought of facing Tolstoy with a sick mind every day gave Prince Mikhail a headache and felt that his life had become gloomy.

【Why! God! Why did I encounter such a crap! 】

Just when Prince Mikhail was about to swallow the bitter drink, Leonid walked in and asked, "Uncle, who is this gentleman?"

Prince Mikhail pretended to be a little happy, and introduced "enthusiastically": "This gentleman is Count Leo Nikolaevich Tolstoy. He is an enthusiastic... full of... full of energy Great lad. How close you two will be!"

Even Leonid could hear the insincere in Prince Mikhail's words. He seemed to have searched his brains to come up with an appropriate evaluation, and his face was even more constipated, and he was really bitter.

Leonid did not have as much resentment as Duke Mikhail. In fact, he was driven here by Li Xiao. They basically listened to the conversation between Tolstoy and Duke Mikhail in the next door, and then he was driven over by Li Xiao, and someone suggested that he could provide Tolstoy with military training.

Leonid neither admired nor despised Tolstoy, he just thought Tolstoy was a bit strange. But I still appreciate his desire to be a soldier and get rid of the leisurely noble life, and I don't object to providing him with a chance.

Leonid wondered why his uncle would refuse to enlist Tolstoy, even reluctantly to give him military training. Wasn't he very happy to entrust this kind of nobleman in the past?

"You can come to my regiment to receive military training. It just so happens that my army will carry out large-scale winter training recently. You can receive training with the young men of our regiment. Earl, I promise to provide you with the most comprehensive and strict training, Let you become a qualified soldier!"
