Li Xiao was holding a newspaper in his hand and pacing in Xingyuan's office.

Lu Zhu was sitting on the sofa, holding a cup of hot tea in her hand.

The winter in Russia is too cold, much colder than in Beijing. I just came back from outside and there is nothing more useful than a cup of hot tea.

“Well done!

It is not easy to build such a team in such a short time!

Thanks for your hard work!"

Li Xiao put down the newspaper in his hand!

Within a dozen days, various Russian newspapers and Ming Dynasty newspapers reported on the huge changes in Russia.

Writers from the Green Pearl Organization published various comments in newspapers.

Analyze Duke Peter's crime of betraying Russia and Empress Catherine from various aspects such as loyalty, humanity, morality and law.

Catherine's funeral was extremely grand.

Li Xiao pulled the new Russian tsar Nicholas and personally supported the spirit. Russian Marshal Kutuzov personally presided over it!

Hundreds of thousands of Russian people stood in the cold wind to mourn Catherine.

Russia even invited Prussian, French, British and other Western journalists to the scene for on-site interviews.

A carriage bearing the tsar's emblem drove out of St. Basil's Cathedral, and hundreds of thousands of people were present.

But everyone can clearly hear the hooves of the tall Don hippopotamus!

The coffin behind the carriage is covered with the Romanov dynasty flag.

The little Tsar Nicholas held a bunch of yellow chrysanthemums in one hand, and the other hand was held by Li Xiao.

The old Kutuzov, wearing a mink hat, drove the carriage himself.

Wherever the hearse passed, all Russians knelt on the ground.

The hearse drove slowly across the bridge over the Moskva River and passed through the Red Square filled with people.

Finally stopping outside the Kremlin palace walls, Nicholas knelt down on the ground and kissed the coffin.

Place the flowers in your hands respectfully on Catherine's coffin.

The little tsar wiped the tears from his eyes, suddenly!

Nicholas broke free from Li Xiao's hand, threw himself on the coffin and cried loudly under the watchful eyes of hundreds of thousands of people.

Everyone was moved by it, and countless Russian people were crying.

The guards, composed of the Guards, raised their guns and fired thirty-five times into the sky, symbolizing that Empress Catherine lived for thirty-five years.

Amid everyone's cries of grief, Catherine's coffin was buried under the Kremlin wall.

The young Tsar Nicholas climbed onto the walls of the Kremlin and spoke into the microphone: "

Today, we bid farewell to the great mother of the Russian nation, Ekaterina.

She has always loved Russia like her son. She has loved every one of us!

She spent countless efforts for the future of the Russian nation.

Finally, with the help of Ming Dynasty, Russia gradually became stronger and stronger.

But at a time when the entire Russian nation was fighting hard and fighting to the death against the coalition forces that invaded Russia.

Our great mother was assassinated by a despicable villain.

I!

Nicholas Alexandrovich, swear to God!

I want to kill the enemy who killed my mother, the traitor to the Russian nation, Peter.

Alexeyevich.

The Russians will not end the war without killing him.

revenge!

revenge!"

Nicholas raised his right hand, and his voice echoed over the Red Square along with the loudspeaker.

"revenge!

revenge!"

Hundreds of thousands of bears in the square shouted in unison.

The sound was like ocean waves, one wave after another, making people feel suffocated.

"Ula!"

"Ula!"

The roar of hundreds of thousands of furry bears could not be covered up, and the few Western reporters almost lost their footing.

Li Xiao looked at the little Nicholas in front of him. The fighting race really lived up to its reputation.

At least, the little furry bear in front of me is full of fighting spirit.

However, this fighting spirit must be guaranteed to be used by the Prussians and French.

Western journalists were sent back to the coalition forces, and then from London to Paris to Berlin, Zurich, and Rome.

Almost all Western newspapers are reporting on this grand funeral.

Many people said that although Catherine was an enemy, her funeral was indeed held with utmost honor.

Some Western newspapers severely condemned Duke Peter.

Call on the government to extradite Prince Peter, who betrayed and killed the monarch, back to Russia.

It was up to the Russians to put him on trial.

At this time, the European continent was still controlled by the nobility.

Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism are the mainstream values.

What Duke Peter did can be said to seriously deviate from the mainstream values ​​of Europeans.

Moreover, he was also disliked by the royal families of various countries.

No one supports Prince Peter, because supporting him is tantamount to supporting the domestic opposition forces.

Encourage them to murder their king and then flee to another country.

Public opinion quickly escalated, and the kings of the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and other countries called the Prussian government one after another, asking them to extradite Duke Peter to Russia.

Frederick and Bismarck were helpless. At this time, Duke Peter was like a hot potato.

No matter how you handle it, it’s wrong!

Others don't know, but they know.

Prince Peter's peace talks were real, but treason was an invisible thing.

They once tried to speak for Prince Peter, but as soon as those words of defense were spoken, they were drowned out by the overwhelming sound of attack.

Fortunately!

Frederick and Bismarck felt that Duke Peter was still useful, so they held on to the media and refused to let go, and they refused to send Duke Peter back to Russia.

Even though public opinion grew louder and louder, these two still pretended to be silent.

Even when reporters blocked the door and asked questions, Bismarck remained silent.

Seeing Bismarck's tragic situation, Murat secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Once upon a time, he had thought of bringing Prince Peter to France.

Because opposite the French army, there were many old subordinates of Duke Peter.

Let him persuade these people to surrender, and probably incite some Russian troops to rebel.

Now it seems that it was a wise move not to bring this person to France.

After finishing the grand funeral, the Russian chapter started playing drums again.

In the chaos of the past few days, many nobles died.

The top Russian figures in Moscow were almost wiped out.

Li Xiao took the opportunity to recruit many people from civilian backgrounds. People who had an extremely favorable impression of the Ming Dynasty became high-level officials in Russia.

In the army, Kutuzov was the only leader.

When the Tsar was still young, he was the regent of the Russian Empire.

In name, Kutuzov controls all power in Russia.

But in reality, Kutuzov could only control the army.
To be continued...
