"Standing at attention!" Andrey shouted. As soon as he finished speaking, the peasant men immediately stopped stepping neatly and stood straight. Andrey glanced at the audience, "The basic training these days will end here. From tomorrow, I will teach you fighting skills. Now, I need 10 captains to assist in training. Does anyone want to be?"

After a moment of silence, only two people raised their hands. Andrei knew that he had to add some materials, so he said, "Become the captain, and the reward will be doubled!"

Now many people raised their hands, and at one glance there were at least fifty people. "The people who want to be the captain come up and play a few moves with me." Andre said, unbuttoning his coat, revealing his solid muscles

Ten minutes later, more than 30 people were defeated. Although these peasants were generally strong in physiques, they were not soldiers after all and did not understand any skills. As a result, most of them were defeated by Andre in one move, and a few powerful people were knocked down after just a few moves.

The military quality of these hired farmers was too poor, and Andre had to designate 10 slightly powerful men as captains in the end.

The Ottoman Empire had already entered its twilight years, and the war on the Balkans quickly developed in a direction conducive to the alliance of four countries. On October 22, the Negoro army at the Gate and the Ibar troops of 20,000 Serbian troops jointly attacked the Turkish army in northern Thrace and northern Albania. The Bao army crossed the Baotu border and advanced southward. The First and Third Army on the Baosu Group repelled the upper army. After fighting on the left wing, after repeatedly repelling the Turkish army, defeated the Third Army of the Turkish army near Kilk-Kilise from October 22 to 24 and began to advance southward. From October 29 to November 3, fierce battles occurred in Lurepurgaz, and the Fourth Army of the Turkish army was defeated. The Turkish army retreated hastily.

On October 24, the Serbian army launched a general attack, and the Turkish army group in Macedonia was crushed. In southern Macedonia, the Greek army won near Yenige on November 1 and 2 and launched an attack on Thessalonika. The city's defenders surrendered on the 9th. At the same time, the Greek navy blocked the exit of the Dardanelles of the Turkish navy and carried out the battle to capture the islands of the Aegean Sea.

The successive good news made Nikola feel very good. He believed that it was he who came out as a mediator. On November 3, Nikola summoned the Ottoman Ambassador to Russia and proposed that Russia could mediate from it and prompt the four Balkans to come to the negotiating table, but there was a condition that the Ottoman Empire must unconditionally open the Black Sea Strait to the Russian Navy.

However, things went against my wishes. The next day, the ambassador to Russia directly rejected the Tsar's proposal, which made Nikola angry. After the ambassador left, Nikola immediately ordered to increase the aid to the four Balkans.

"Dear Princess, it is my honor to know you!" A young man in a suit picked up Anna's right hand and kissed her. This time Anna put on women's gloves, but she still felt uncomfortable, but her face remained the same. "Welcome to the dinner I hosted, I hope you have a happy evening!"

As soon as the young man left, another young man walked forward to greet Anna, and then kissed her.

That's right, tonight was a banquet held in Anna's personal name. Some of them were venues and halls in the imperial village. Through Anthony, Anna invited some young talents from Petersburg, some of whom were rich businessmen, some were shrewd and capable entrepreneurs, and some were young officers with strong spirits. In short, they were all the pride of heaven.

To describe these people in the words of Anna's previous life, they are not only tall, rich and handsome, but also rich sons-in-law with both moral integrity and talent. Among them, one of them seemed extremely special - Oleg Oleg's father, Earl Dimir, was the supreme commander of the Imperial Guards, and his duty was to protect Petersburg, the capital of the empire. It can be said that in Petersburg, except for Emperor Nicholas II, he was the largest.

But don’t think that Oleg is a playboy. On the contrary, Oleg, who was just 15 years old, was admitted to the Petersburg Military Academy a few days ago with extraordinary talent and acquired diligence. What he would face was a severe test for three years.

"Just just a nerd!" Anna, who had originally held this idea, immediately corrected it after meeting Oleg. The 15-year-old Oleg was not tall, but he was nearly a head taller than the 11-year-old Anna. Although he was a young boy with no beard, his handsome face had fascinated countless women, including Anna's maid Abia.

"Dear Princess, thank you for your invitation!" Oleg held up Anna's hand very naturally. Somehow, Anna didn't want the other party to kiss her hand, so she suddenly held the other party's hand, "Mr. Oleg, I'm glad to know you."

Anna herself didn't know how to hold a banquet, all of which was arranged by Abiya: several large round tables were placed in the hall, which simply decorated the surrounding walls. As the maids served meals, the banquet began.

To be honest, Anna didn't know how to deal with these rich young masters. The huge difference in identity between her past and present life made Anna feel at a loss. Tonight's purpose is very simple, to know these young talents as much as possible and bring them closer together. She understood: Even if she is in power in the future, she has no trustworthy person under her, she is just a lonely person.

There was no choice but to bite the bullet and join the conversation between the gentlemen, and establish friendship with them as much as possible. For example, Anna agreed with a young businessman: sell all the grain produced by her own sealed land to him. Anna also promised Anthony that she would persuade her sisters to buy agricultural machinery.

While Anna was running around among her talents, Oleg had a conversation with Abiya. Oleg's elegant conversation quickly won Abiya's favor. Just as the two opened their hearts and chatted enthusiastically, Anna came back.

Seeing his maid chatting with Oleg with a blush on her face, Anna became inexplicably jealous and cursed in her heart, "This little face is more handsome than Leonardo and Judelow. I hope you are a Gay! In that case, I will let Andre blow up your anus!"

The dinner ended smoothly, but Oleg stayed and asked to meet Anna alone.

This was unexpected. Anna thought she had no common language with this kid, but she still had to retreat. So now there were only two people left in the room.

"Dear Princess, I have a survey report here, please check it out!" Oleg said as he took out a folded piece of paper from his shirt pocket and respectfully handed it to Anna.
