Chapter 1482 Spring in Moscow (Second update, please subscribe)

Moscow.

Li Bai came to Moscow for the first time, so when standing on the side of the Arbat Street, feeling the severe cold of the northern land, and watching the ornately decorated carriages passing by on the snow-covered streets, his voice was crisp. The sound of the copper bell made him feel the absurdity of a certain era—since the Ming Dynasty invented the car in 1862, in the next decade or so, cars swept the world, and cars dominated European cities. Not much carriage.

Even in Constantinople, the capital of the Roman Empire, there were no horse-drawn carriages on the streets there, and most of the cars running around on the streets were cars. Among those cars, there were many BMWs, red horses Famous brand cars such as Ji and other cars produced in the empire, while ordinary brands such as Maxima, Volkswagen, and Fuwo are not very common.But after arriving in Moscow, there are carriages everywhere!
Even running along the streets of the busiest Tverskaya Street, that is also a carriage!
Occasionally only one or two cars pass by on the street.

Noticing that the guests of the Ming Empire were staring at the carriages on the street in a daze, Colonel Kandrachenko, the staff officer of the Sixth Army of the Roman Empire who accompanied him to Moscow, said to him with some embarrassment:
"Moscow is different from Constantinople. Constantinople is fashionable and modern, while people here in Moscow still maintain a traditional life. They breed horses, raise horses, and use carriages..."

Tradition is the best excuse to cover up everything. Tradition means poverty.

"No, Colonel Kondrachenko, it was only when I saw these beautiful carriages that I really felt the great and unique Russia. St. Petersburg was perfect but too European, and Constantinople was great but too European. Passing through Turkey is too modern, and only in Moscow can one think of the stories described by Pushkin and Tolstoy, and feel the profound history of this land.”

Facing the cover-up, Li Bai flattered him directly.

Russians are like that!
They may talk about how backward the country is and how ignorant the people are, but if you want to praise the so-called "greatness of Russian culture", they will all utter like cats being masturbated Satisfied grunt.

A simple flattery made the face of Colonel Kondrachenko full of pride. He patted Li Bai's arm enthusiastically and said:
"Lieutenant Colonel, our train must be late. We will go to the Yeliseyev store in a while. It is the best store in Moscow. It has all kinds of goods, even in Constantinople. its branch."

He came to Moscow this time to help Russia train pilots. In order to show support for the Roman Empire, the Empire said two weeks ago that it would provide them with aircraft and machinery worth 200 million yuan, a total of [-] aircraft!

Even the aid to France was not so great, and even Li Bai and his teammates were going to France as planned, but they never thought that a telegram would send them to the ice and snow in Moscow just after they arrived in Congo.

Of course, the Russians did not pay the price-fifteen days ago, the Fourth and Fifth Armies of the Roman Empire invaded East Prussia and marched towards the capital, Königsberg.Despite Germany's precautions, the Russian army successfully entered Germany until the German Eighth Army launched a counterattack three days later. In order to defeat the Russian army, the German army designed a trap to allow the Russian Fourth Army from the south to enter Germany ahead of time. The German army carried out a pincer offensive from the two wings of the army and surrounded and wiped out its main force. The commander of the Russian Second Army was defeated and committed suicide.Three days ago, after paying the price of 13 casualties and 15 captured, the Russian army abandoned the entire mission.

Although the Russian attack failed, they succeeded in forcing the Germans to increase their troops to the east, which greatly relieved the pressure on France.This is also the fundamental reason why the empire is willing to give assistance.

Although he doesn't like shopping the most, but thinking of his wife and children at home, he turned his face and agreed:
"Well, I'm looking to buy some Russian crafts to send to my wife and kids."

In fact, this is the only thing he can do for his wife and children on the front line.

"They should like it very much..."

While saying this to himself in his heart, Li Bai suddenly realized that he was a little homesick. In fact, who can miss home and family members?
Li Bai still remembers his son's reluctance when he left home a month ago when he personally sent his youngest son to kindergarten, and his wife holding back tears on her shoulders.

"What do you want to buy later?"

Just when Li Bai was thinking about buying something for his wife and children, Colonel Khandrachenko patted him who was in a daze.

"Come on, let's go to Yeliseyev's shop first..."

The two of them walked along Tverskaya Street like this. On the street, people could tell at a glance that Li Bai was a foreigner, even if he wore the same fur coat and fur hat as the Russians, but he took every step carefully. After all, there is a thin layer of ice on the ground, and if you are not careful when walking, you will fall down. He has fallen before.

Tverskaya Street leads to Tverskaya, and Manesh Square in front of the Kremlin is the starting point of Tverskaya Street, from here it goes northwest through Tver, and extends to the ancient city of St. Petersburg in the northwest.As the busiest street in Moscow, there are not only shops but also financial institutions such as banks on both sides of the street.

Just as they were walking forward cautiously, suddenly, there was a rush of electric bells from a bank on the side of the road.

what happened?

Before Li Bai and Colonel Khandrachenko figured out what was going on.

Li Bai heard someone shout something in Russian.

What are they shouting about?
What society, what...

He looked up and saw a large sheet of leaflets flying out of nowhere in front of him. In the leaflets that looked like snowflakes, two men jumped out of the bank screaming, one of them shot flying with a shotgun and rushed to the bank after hearing the sound. The policeman, another man kept shooting at the sky with a pistol. Just here, a car rushed over. As soon as they got into the car, the car drove towards the distance at high speed.

"This is... robbery..."

The scene in front of him made Li Bai dumbfounded.

"Thugs, they are all a group of thugs..."

When Senior Colonel Khandrachenko shouted excitedly, Li Bai saw a flyer blown by the wind and fell to his feet. He picked up a flyer and glanced at it. A bunch.

"Stop this unjust war between imperialists!"
