I'm playing whack-a-mole in Siberia

Chapter 62 Meeting Ceremony

With Peter, a master of atmosphere, present, the atmosphere of the welcome party could not be better.

Peter is also considered to have great powers, and all the service staff at the welcome party are actually maids. Therefore, including the princes, the mood is high. It is estimated that the champagne consumption tonight will be much more than last night.

George also finally met General Pushrewsky.

General Pushrewski is rich in experience and has experienced all the wars in the Asia-II era. The troops he leads are known for their strict discipline. No matter how harsh the conditions, General Pushrewski's troops can always complete the orders given by their superiors. order, as evidenced by the Order of St. George, First Class on his chest.

The Order of St. George is only awarded to officers and generals with military merit. It can also be obtained by officers with more than 25 years of perfect service or who have participated in 18 to 20 naval battles.

General Ski was about to retire, and he was not in good spirits. He only showed up at the welcome banquet and then left.

No one cared about the old general, and the atmosphere of the welcome banquet was not affected in any way.

Although it was a welcome banquet held by the Xie Regiment, there were quite a few officers from the General Regiment attending, so the officers started drinking together, hoping to get each other there.

When drinking, one has to pay attention to equality of status, and there are not many people who are qualified to come to George.

Sergey would definitely not end up if he maintained his identity, but the officers of the Xie regiment did not let George go, so Constantine took the initiative to find George.

"George, I've always wanted to have a drink with you, but I didn't get the chance at Peter's house. Now you won't refuse, right?" Constantine was followed by a large group of officers watching the fun, all of whom were members of the regiment.

George was a member of the General Regiment. People who were watching the Regiment came to see him. The officers of the General Regiment immediately gathered over to cheer for George.

"Male cat, don't bully children, your opponent is me!" Grand Duke Nikolay Mikhailovich is another cousin of George.

Mikhailovich's father is Mikhail, the second youngest brother of Asia. This Nikolai is Mikhail's eldest son.

Russian names are indeed very confusing.

In the general group alone, there are already three Nikolas who have appeared.

"George, you don't dare to challenge, do you?" Peter fanned the flames and instantly replaced the little boy as George's most hated object.

"Constantine, I'll drink with you!" Nicky also took the initiative to stand up for George.

The two commanders of the Grand Duke's regiment did not speak. They sat beside each other with a glass of wine and watched the fun with a smile.

All eyes were on George.

Although George has joined the Guards as a formal soldier, it is obvious that these relatives do not treat George as an adult.

Maybe they are still dissatisfied.

It's okay for Nikolai to join the Guards early. It's not unacceptable at the age of 15.

Is it too much for George, who is only 10 years old, to treat the Guards as a nursery?

The officers did not dare to object to Ya San's arrangement.

George will be forced to bear some of the wrath from the officers.

"George, what do you say?" Constantine looked confident and triumphant.

Everyone is waiting for George's response.

Nicky wanted to speak, but George beat him to it.

"How do you want to drink?" George not only wanted to challenge, but also wanted to win, and he also wanted to win beautifully.

"Champagne, is that okay?" Constantine ran all the way on the road to death, provocative and also carrying private goods: "Oh oh oh, I almost forgot, I bought a lot of St. Louis from your uncle. I have to say, St. Louis is really good.”    If you just drink, it’s not a big problem.

Talking about anything else would be too much.

As mentioned before, the real Russian aristocrats did not engage in business and only received income from fiefs and positions.

Let’s not talk about how it works in private. At least on the surface, the only people doing business in a big way are the First Lady’s family.

It makes sense that George sells wine, because George does not have a fief or a position. The salary of a super duke alone cannot support the dignity that a super duke should have.

"Male cat, if you want to drink, just drink and don't talk about anything else." The cousin was dissatisfied. After Constantine finished speaking, everyone else's eyes changed when they looked at George.

It's okay to talk about this matter in private, but to say it publicly on this occasion is almost like a slap in the face.

"Alas -" George sighed, looking at Constantine with contempt and ridicule: "I just didn't give you face at Peter's house, I didn't expect you to be so stingy -"

George did not confront Constantine or directly attack him personally.

The Constantine family also had a lot of troubles. If George complained about it, his addiction would be over, but if word of it reached the Tsar, George's evaluation would drop a notch.

Yuriev and Pavlovich, a super duke and a grand duke, used each other's privacy to attack each other in public. No matter whether they won or lost, they both fell behind.

George wanted to take the overall situation into consideration.

But why do honest people always suffer?

Everyone had their heads pressed down and fed to them. If George didn't fight back, not only would he be unable to hold his head up during this period of time in the Guards, but this incident would become a stain on George's life.

"We are soldiers, so let's talk like soldiers. During the Rivne exercise in September, I formally challenge you as a soldier. Do you dare to accept it?" George shouted the last words, and the music of the military band was all over the place. suppressed.

Constantine's face turned pale and red. He had no idea what the Rivno exercise was about.

Constantine and Peter came to the Guards not to be gilded, but to deepen their relationship with the future Tsar.

So after George yelled, he looked at Constantine with a sneer, and gave him another "shabi" mouth gesture.

Although this "shabi" does not curse out loud, it is more effective than scolding out loud.

Constantine's face turned completely pale.

Nicola and George have such a good relationship. After offending George, he still wants to hug Nicola's lap?

Although Nicholas did not speak at this moment, he looked at Constantine with very dissatisfied eyes. This was already a severe condemnation for Nicholas.

Nikolai was a good-natured man. George had known Nikolai for so long that he had only ever lost his temper with two police inspectors.

"How about it, do you dare?" George will not let Constantine go. If he wants to step on George to earn face, he must be prepared to be stepped on by George.

Otherwise, George's life in the Guards would have been difficult.

"Of course, let's meet in Rivno~" Konstantin's voice trembled.

Constantine just wants to do what he is best at, and Constantine is really not good at this kind of thing.

The Guards have a routine exercise in Rivne every September, and the Tsar will also be present. This is the most important exercise of the Guards every year. Local troops also participate. It is a joint training of multiple arms, close to actual combat, and there are casualties.

George was going to get good grades in the drill in Rivne as a gift to the Guards.
