Wang Zhong wasn't sure if Ludmila had caught on or was playing dumb, but it didn't matter.

He said, "Then please lead the way!"

Ludmila, happy, hugged Wang Zhong's arm and pulled him forward.

Just as Ludmila had pushed open the study door, a loud shout came from inside, "Impossible! Do you think I don't know what Alyosha is? No, absolutely impossible!"

After the girl pushed the door, Wang Zhong could see Petrov, wiping sweat from his brow, saying, "But I saw his subordinates trust him a lot!"

"What can you see?" the Duke, in full military garb and with graying hair, scolded from in front of the window, "You're just an armchair strategist! Always a staff officer at the headquarters, never led a soldier in your life! You must be mistaken! And take a look at these battle reports! What, destroying six hundred Prosen Tanks, single-handedly charging and killing a Prosen Major General, do you believe that?"

All Petrov could do was wipe away sweat.
