Moscow!

Today is the annual Royal Hunting Day. Queen Catherine led all members of the royal family to attend the hunting meeting held in the suburbs.

Prince Peter was lucky enough to hunt a strong stag. The glade was cleared and Her Majesty's banquet was held here.

Today’s lunch is roasted venison, man! I still can’t resist venison. A group of people gathered around a long table covered with snow-white tablecloth to eat roasted venison.

"Whose seat is that?" Ekaterina looked at an empty chair strangely. Someone dared to be late for the luncheon she held.

"Oh! That's the position of Vladimir, Peter the Great's adjutant." Seeing Her Majesty the Queen asking, the attendant immediately reported.

Because it was the elk hunted by Duke Peter, basically everyone here was his subordinates. If it were anywhere else, there would never be a seat for such a small adjutant.

From another perspective, this adjutant was also highly regarded by Prince Peter.

Prince Peter did not speak, but one of his subordinates smiled and said: "Maybe the horse he was pulling the cart has something wrong with him again."

As soon as he finished speaking, the guy started laughing.

"What's wrong?" Ekaterina looked at Prince Peter in confusion.

"This Vladimir is a weirdo. He never talks much. His carriage always rushes forward. When I asked him why he was like this, he said that if anything happened, he could ride at the fastest speed.

carriage."

"Oh! That's it." Queen Catherine also felt that this was a weirdo with obsessive-compulsive disorder.

"Not only that, he also weakened the sear of the pistol. Once he stamped his foot, the gun went off and almost hit him in the leg."

"This guy also likes winter swimming. No matter how cold the weather is, he insists on taking a bath with cold water. Moreover, he still bathes in a wild pit on the roadside."

"He never drinks. Even if ordered by the Duke, he will only drink one drink. He says he wants to keep his head clear and be ready to deal with enemy attacks at any time."

"He has a plan for everything he does. If anyone disrupts his plan, he will fight with him."

Prince Peter looked at these chattering people and the chaotic scene immediately became quiet.

"Vladimir's behavior is a little weird on weekdays, but he is very serious and organized. If you leave things to him, he will do it properly.

He is a very capable person!" Duke Peter's evaluation was very high. Even Catherine was surprised. It was very rare for the rigid Duke Peter to give such an evaluation.

"oh!"

"Well! This is indeed a born warrior, and all his actions are in preparation for battle. There are not many people like him now!" Dorgon also praised.

It is not uncommon to remain vigilant. What is rare is to remain vigilant in any environment. Especially in a place like Moscow, as the capital of the empire, there will never be any foreign invaders. But this Vladimir still has

It is extremely rare to be able to maintain such vigilance.

"Oh!" The two important ministers around her commented like this, and Ekaterina couldn't help but say "oh" again. Naturally, she also gave up the idea of ​​asking people to remove the chair.

She wanted to see who this Vladimir was.

After a while, a man wearing a traditional Orthodox robe came over. After saluting Her Majesty the Queen and Prince Peter, he sat down in his seat.

An adjutant's seat was naturally far away from Her Majesty the Queen. While Ekaterina was eating venison, she looked at Vladimir with interest.

Vladimir just ate and drank with his head down, and did not chat with the people around him while eating and drinking like others.

A banquet is actually a social occasion, where everyone eats and chats together to increase emotional communication. Everyone is hanging out in Russia, so it is very important to build a network of friends.

It seems that it is indeed as Duke Peter said. This is a person who is not good at talking, but I don't know if he can handle things properly as Duke Peter said.

Thinking of this, Queen Catherine raised her fingers at the attendant in the distance.

The attendant came over, and Ekaterina whispered something to the attendant. The attendant was stunned for a moment, but saluted and walked away.

The banquet was very lively, and the venison smeared with honey tasted quite good. Everyone's mouths were full of oil as they ate, and the voices of some drunken guys unconsciously became louder.

If Her Majesty the Queen hadn't been here, someone might have started to act wildly. The birds in the forest seemed to be frightened by this group of people, and flew away with fluttering arms.

A bear roar made everyone sober up.

A giant bear jumped out of the woods. It was really a giant bear. Prince Peter had never seen such a big brown bear in his more than fifty years of life.

The giant bear rushed out and smashed a bowl-sized tree blocking the road with one slap. It opened its mouth and roared, revealing two sharp fangs. At the same time, the fat all over its body was like a wave of waves.

Jitter.

"Bear!" Those guys who were already drunk immediately turned to sweat from the wine they just drank. Someone shouted, and everyone immediately ran away.

One guy was probably confused, and he knocked over Ekaterina who was sitting on the chair.

The scene suddenly became chaotic, and everyone wanted to run away. The guards from afar rushed over quickly, helped Queen Catherine up and started running.

Prince Peter sat on his chair without anyone paying attention. At this time, he already hated these guards.

Just when everyone was running for their lives, a gunshot rang out.

Vladimir grabbed a revolver that someone had left behind and shot the brown bear.

The bullet hit the brown bear, and blood spurted out from the oily bear skin. Unfortunately, the distance was a bit far, and the bullet only penetrated the bear skin.

The huge brown bear became even crazier after suffering the pain. With a roar, it gave up on pounce on Duke Peter and instead pounced on Vladimir.

Vladimir swallowed hard, took a deep breath, blocked his breath, took aim, and pulled the trigger again on the huge brown bear.

"Bang~!" Another shot.

It is indeed difficult to miss such a huge brown bear. The revolver bullet hit the brown bear's abdomen again, but it was the same as last time, it just penetrated the brown bear's skin.

Blood flew again, but the brown bear became even more violent.

"Bang~!" Another shot was fired, and the bullet hit the brown bear's neck. Unexpectedly, the brown bear didn't take it seriously at all, and just became more violent.

The pistol is obviously not powerful enough to deal with such violent things.

Vladimir tried to hold his breath and aimed the revolver at the brown bear's chest. There was a crescent-shaped white hair there. If he hit this place, he could directly knock this huge brown bear down.

"Bang~!" The shot was still deflected and hit the brown bear's shoulder. You can see with the naked eye that the bear skin on the brown bear's shoulder was lifted, and the flying blood beads were thrown far away.

There were only a few bullets left in the gun, but the brown bear was almost in front of him. When the brown bear was less than ten meters away, Vladimir pulled the trigger again.

"Bang~!" The shot hit the brown bear directly in the eye.

The bullet directly shattered the brown bear's eyeball. Because the distance was too close, the powerful kinetic energy directly penetrated the brown bear's skull and penetrated into the brown bear's head. The copper-covered bullet rotated and hit the brown bear's head, destroying the brown bear's head in an instant.

The brain is in a mess.

He staggered two steps, "Boom!" The brown bear fell down in front of Vladimir's feet. The sharp bear claws almost scratched Vladimir's face.

"Bang~!" Aiming at the back of the brown bear's head, Vladimir pulled the trigger again.

"Click~!"

"Click~!"

"Click~!"

The brown bear was twitching on the ground, and Vladimir was still mechanically pulling the trigger. The firing pin struck again and again, but no bullets flew out.

A group of royal guards rushed over, and fired a machine gun at the back of the brown bear's head. Soon, the brown bear couldn't even twitch. The head guard kicked it twice, and after making sure that the brown bear was still, he said to Vladimir

: "Her Majesty the Queen invites you!"

"Your Majesty the Queen?" Vladimir quickly handed the gun back to the captain of the guard.

Although there are no bullets in the gun, it still cannot be taken to see Her Majesty the Queen.

Turning his head, Vladimir discovered that there was a man hanging on a tree branch with two legs, like a rabbit. He was the unlucky guy who had just knocked over Her Majesty the Queen.

A group of officials stood tremblingly. The panic on many people's faces was gone, replaced by a look of defeat.

You know with your buttocks that in the face of danger, they not only abandoned their boss, Prince Peter, but also abandoned Empress Catherine. It is conceivable that the future career of these people has come to an end.

"Vladimir, you did a good job." Queen Catherine looked at this man who was not tall, somewhat bald, but looked very strong and tough.

"Everything should be done, Her Majesty the Queen!" Vladimir lowered his head, his somewhat bald head looking slightly embarrassed.

"No wonder Prince Peter said that you are a person who is always ready to fight." Ekaterina was very satisfied with Vladimir.

If it were anyone else, he would have expressed his loyalty to her eloquently by this time.

There is no one like Vladimir, he just said it casually.

Prince Peter also looked at Vladimir with admiration. After all, the brown bear's first target was him.

"I'm going to give you a suitable position, what do you think?" Ekaterina looked at Vladimir with a smile.

"I will try my best to do the job you asked me to do." Vladimir didn't even bother to raise his head.

"Very good, now...!" When Yekaterina was about to speak, suddenly a horse galloped in the distance. The knight on the horse spurred the horse like crazy, and the cloak behind him was pulled into a strip.

straight line.

After galloping to the defensive circle of the guards, the knight turned over and dismounted. He must have been riding for a long time, and he was almost exhausted. He fell to the ground with a "thud"!

When several guards saw the letter bucket behind the knight, they immediately helped him up and dragged him to Her Majesty the Queen.

Catherine and Prince Peter frowned. Judging from the appearance of this knight, he must have been galloping for a long time. They would not do this unless it was urgent.

Seeing Catherine, the messenger struggled to take off the mail bucket and handed it to Her Majesty the Queen with both hands.

After checking the paint on the letter bucket, Ekaterina opened the letter bucket. She took out the letter and read it again. Ekaterina closed her eyes and looked a little pale.
