Struggle in Russia

Anton immediately understood how important his future responsibilities were. As the first person in charge of Kiev's violent institutions, he controls almost all the police and gendarmes in Kiev, including the gendarmes and spies of the third department, who have to listen to him.

It can be said that the position he is about to obtain is the first person to assist the Governor of Ukraine. Whether the future governor can control Ukraine largely depends on his performance.

This discovery did not make Anton feel a lot of pressure, because after agreeing to come to Ukraine, he was mentally prepared to face great pressure. He also knew from Li Xiao and Alexei about the current situation of the reformists in Russia. They are really suppressed everywhere, and they are surrounded by enemies.

In fact, in the past two years in Wallachia, he has experienced various suppressions and pressures, including Count Uvarov, Crown Prince Alexander and even Grand Duke Constantine, trying to find trouble with them. La Yi would do it himself. Anyway, he lived under tremendous pressure every day, and it was difficult to catch his breath.

Fortunately, in the past few years, Alexei and Li Xiao have led them step by step. Although Anton has never had the opportunity to be alone, he has indeed learned how to deal with pressure correctly.

So he had no fear on his face, and replied very frankly: "I will hand over the work in Wallachia as quickly as possible, and then immediately start the work in Kiev."

Count Rostovtsev was very satisfied with Anton's firmness and composure. He liked this kind of young man who could face difficulties. He nodded slightly and said, "Very good, but you don't have to worry too much. The dust will not settle so quickly, you just need to be mentally prepared!"

Anton also nodded, and then said: "Okay, but I'm used to making preparations in advance, given the responsibilities and responsibilities you entrusted to me, especially the relevant preparations, otherwise it will not be so easy to take over the city. "

After a short pause, Anton seemed to have remembered something, and asked, "By the way, can you tell me who the future governor will be in advance, so that I can prepare in advance to cooperate with him in his work."

Count Rostovtsev laughed. Anton's initiative made him more and more surprised, because the question he asked was very sensitive. Who is the future Governor of Ukraine is definitely a big secret, and he must not tell others casually.

Of course, Anton is not someone else, but he is a little sensitive to ask in such a hurry. At least Sergey, who is standing next to him, has no courage to ask this question, even if he is just as curious.

In fact, after Anton asked this question, Sergey's heart was also stirred up. He was shocked by Anton's stupidity and boldness, and felt that Anton was a bit stupid, because such a question can be asked casually? I don't even look at your identity, how dare you be so bold at your level!

Secondly,

He was also a little curious, he wanted to know how Count Rostovtsev would answer Anton's question: would he just give him a lesson and drive him away, or would he just ignore him?

Just when he was guessing wildly, Count Rostovtsev spoke, and Sergey was taken aback when he spoke, because he gave the answer very peacefully: "The future Governor of Ukraine? If my plan And the arrangement is going well, it is very likely that the future governor will be either Count Vorontsov or Admiral Fyodor Fyodorovich Berg."

Anton is very familiar with Count Vorontsov. As one of the heroes of Russia, this veteran is a typical example of being able to conquer the world and rule the world. His reputation among the people is not ordinary.

And the general Berg behind him is very strange to him. He has hardly heard of this person, but he only knows that this man is now the director of military affairs at the Army General Headquarters. Anyway, listen to strangers.

It doesn't matter if Anton is not familiar with them. Sergey is too familiar with these two. Although Count Vorontsov has been marginalized these years, and he is definitely incomparable with his heyday, but a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, even Because he was marginalized, his level of ability and past achievements were all there, and no one dared to underestimate him.

As for Fyodor Berg, he is more familiar with him. He is also a veteran who has participated in all the wars since the Great Patriotic War in 1812, and is especially familiar with Wallachia, Moldavia and other places. Moreover, he is also the leader in Russian surveying and mapping, and now he is the director of military affairs and is mainly responsible for this work.

It's just that Sergey is familiar with it, but he didn't expect Count Rostovtsev to give the answer. Although he is not sure which one came to Ukraine to be the governor, but since he said so, the two will take office most likely.

And this made Sergey feel very unscientific. Doesn't such a top secret need to be kept secret? How could you just tell a pawn like Anton so casually? This is too unscientific!

Anyway, he felt that Count Rostovtsev was definitely Meng Lang this time. Could it be that he felt that the overall situation was settled and he was in a good mood so he could play casually?

Sergey kept complaining in his heart, always feeling that Count Rostovtsev's affairs were poorly handled. But he never thought that Count Rostovtsev did it on purpose. He just wanted to let Sergey know who the future governor of Ukraine was, and then see how Sergey would react.

In a general sense, this was the last chance Count Rostovtsev gave his secretary. If Sergei realizes how honorable and important the candidates for the governor of Ukraine are, he should know how important Ukraine's status will be in the future. In this case, he will also carefully consider what choice he should make in the future.

It's a pity that Sergey didn't realize Count Rostovtsev's painstaking efforts, he was just complaining foolishly, another perfect missed opportunity.

Count Rostovtsev has been observing Sergey's expression, and immediately found that the secretary is really hopeless, he has no consciousness at all, in fact, Count Rostovtsev can decisively rely on this performance alone His political future will be mediocre, because he is too dull.

As for the other side, Anton didn't think so much. He didn't realize that Count Rostovtsev was beating his secretary. When Alexei was doing business, they would explain any such important matters in advance to make preparations for his subordinates.

In other words, the reason why Anton asked was actually "used" by Li Xiao. So he just thought for a while before replying: "I know Count Vorontsov, and I know how to cooperate with him. But I am really unfamiliar with this Admiral Fyodor Berg, can you Tell me about his habits, and prepare me..."
