According to the results of 2003-2005. the army was recognized as the best in the Air Force and the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation.

In April 2006 he resigned. In June of the same year, he became Deputy General Director of JSC AVTOVAZ (and a year later - Executive Director) for social and economic development and interaction with government agencies.

Our distinguished guest answered questions from 14:00 to 17:00. Attention! The remaining and any other newly received questions will be answered by Evgeny Yuriev after the New Year holidays.

From the award list: “For all the time he served in the ranks of the Armed Forces of Russia, he is an example of the fulfillment of military duty. Without reducing combat readiness, he reorganized a separate air defense corps and the Air Force of the Volga Military District into an air force and air defense unit. Organizational and staff activities were carried out on time without removing units from combat duty and reducing combat and mobilization readiness. In his work, he pays constant attention to increasing the combat readiness of units, educating and training personnel, strengthening military discipline, and establishing strictly statutory order. The plan of combat training in the formation has been fulfilled by 100 percent, combat duty is organized with high quality. "

BARELY the landing gear of the plane broke off the concrete, the blue sunny spring sky burst into the windows of the portholes. The sky, with which his entire military life is connected. Lieutenant General Yevgeny Yuryev, catching himself at this thought, smiled. Could he have another life? Probably not, because everything is inextricably linked with the army, with its native Air Defense Forces. No, he was in tenth grade at a crossroads. But the craving for the army took its toll. Father - Leonid Pavlovich, who went through the whole war and retired to the reserve with the rank of major, died of front-line wounds when Zhenya had not even finished school. The elder brother Vladimir, who was born in the pre-war 1940 and survived all the horrors of the war, chose the most peaceful specialty - an agronomist and got a job on a state farm in his native village of Khryashchevka. The big age difference often did not allow siblings to talk, as they say, "heart to heart." The elder believed that the younger was simply obliged to listen to him always and in everything. And only once he agreed with Zhenya's arguments that he, they say, is obliged to become an officer, to continue the family tradition. - Well, - Vladimir agreed, - our grandfathers and great-grandfathers, father, served in the army, so I'm on your side. The brothers hugged tightly, like a man. And in the corner on a chair was my mother Anna Stepanovna wiping the tears running down her cheeks with a handkerchief. Then there were difficult, but very happy years for Yevgeny, the years of study at the Engels Anti-Aircraft Missile School of Air Defense. Exercises, trainings ... Here, with the officers-teachers who passed the Great Patriotic War, he learned to think large-scale, like a sponge absorbing all the information. How useful all this was later, when immediately after graduating from college he was appointed to the post of intelligence chief of an anti-aircraft missile battalion! He worked to the point of exhaustion. He spent days and nights in the unit, breaking out only for a few hours home to see and say that he loves his young wife Klava very much, to kiss his one-year-old daughter Tatyana. And again combat duty, exercises, shooting ... He was not thirty when, from the post of deputy chief of staff for combat control of a unit, he entered the Military Command Academy of Air Defense. Perhaps, for the first time during his service, he was then able to pay more attention to his family. He also remembers the joy in the eyes of his wife when he announced that he, an excellent student, had been offered the position of commander of an anti-aircraft missile battalion in the Group of Soviet Forces in Germany. At that time, serving there was the dream of every officer. And here - and a higher position, and the possibility of growth. And again - work, work. .. When, during his next vacation, the elder brother asked Yevgeny about what he particularly remembered in Germany, he replied: "Nothing unusual, except for constant combat readiness." Then the places of service and positions were changed. Leningrad, North Caucasian, Moscow military districts ... All steps of career development - from the commander of an anti-aircraft missile brigade to the deputy commander of an air defense unit. Awarding of the Order "For Service to the Motherland in the Armed Forces of the USSR" III degree. And as a natural result of many years of work and successful service - study at the Academy of the General Staff. And again a new place of service, the position of commander of an air defense division in the Far Eastern Military District. Responsibility not only for oneself, but also for thousands of subordinates. And, of course, the protection of the country's air border. The fact that he did an excellent job in his new position is evidenced by the fact that by the Presidential Decree of 1998, Lieutenant General Yuriev was awarded the Order of Military Merit. And again a series of garrisons and a new appointment. This time the commander of the air defense unit. And again there are a lot of problems, which, however, he was not the first to solve. By the way, in his presentation to the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, IV degree, this period of military labor is said rather briefly, but succinctly. Dry lines of the document ... But behind them is the daily responsibility for thousands of servicemen who, under the command of Lieutenant General Yuryev, are on daily combat duty to guard the State Border. As for the subordinates, he knows each of them by sight. And how could it be otherwise, if they, his subordinates, are known by sight even ... by the astronauts. The soldiers and officers of the units of the search and rescue complex, which are part of the air force and air defense formations, they have seen more than once during the landing of spacecraft. It can also be remembered that its association also includes parts of the Unified Air Traffic Management System of the Russian Federation, which daily ensure the conduct of up to two hundred aircraft. In the GEORGIEVSKY hall of the Kremlin it was solemn and dignified. Luminaries of our science, academicians, scientists, artists and cosmonauts were sitting nearby. It was breathtaking when the chairman of the Committee on State Awards, Nina Sivova, announced that Lieutenant General Yuriev was awarded the Order of Merit to the Fatherland, IV degree, for his significant contribution to the defense of the Fatherland. After that, Russian President Vladimir Putin personally attached a state award to the lapel of his ceremonial tunic. "Serving the Fatherland!" - the corps commander exhaled excitedly. Several rays of sunlight fell on the order through the loosely closed curtains of the hall. For a moment, Evgeny Leonidovich thought that his native sky was also congratulating him on the award.

Military investigative bodies need to focus on preventing corruption when using budget funds for defense needs, primarily when executing the state defense order. This task was set by the chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia Alexander Bastrykin at an expanded meeting of the board of the Main Military Investigative Directorate (GVSU) on Thursday.

He is generally satisfied with the work of the head office. Last year, almost 9 thousand criminal cases were investigated there, which is 7 percent more than in 2014. The verdicts have been passed to those involved in such high-profile trials as the Oboronservis case. Despite the increased workload, it was possible to prevent a decline in the quality of the preliminary investigation.

Within the framework of the agreement concluded with the Control and Financial Inspection of the Russian Ministry of Defense and the Chief Military Prosecutor's Office, constructive interaction is being established to combat corruption crimes during control measures and prosecutorial inspections. As a result, in the course of procedural inspections, in most cases, the facts of unjustified spending of funds established by the control and supervisory authorities were confirmed and numerous thefts of funds allocated for the monetary allowance of servicemen were revealed, '' Bastrykin noted.

Indicative figures and facts were presented in the report of the head of the Main Military Investigative Directorate of the TFR, Alexander Sorochkin. According to him, last year the military investigative bodies received 28,800 reports of crimes committed by employees of various law enforcement agencies. More than 16.6 thousand criminal cases were in production, of which more than 8.7 thousand were completed. “At the request of the military investigators, the courts seized the property of the accused with a total value of almost 1 billion rubles. In addition, through the efforts of the military investigators at the pre-trial stage of the proceedings, it was possible to obtain compensation for the damage caused in the amount of 2.7 billion rubles. the figure did not exceed 500 million, "Sorochkin emphasized.

He recalled that over the five years of the Investigative Committee's existence, its military headquarters sent 22 criminal cases against senior officers of various departments to the court, three of which in 2015. At the present time, criminal cases of four more generals-siloviks are under investigation. All of them are suspected of corruption. If at the end of 2014, military investigators noted a decrease in the total number of registered corruption crimes, in 2015 their number increased by 18 percent. The proportion of such crimes in the total mass of registered criminal acts has increased to 20 percent. "Thus, today every fifth crime is corruption," Sorochkin concluded.

At the collegium, he also cited other disappointing statistics.

During the year, the number of registered facts of bribery increased by 1.6 times, by 16.5 percent - by misappropriation and embezzlement, by 18.7 percent - by abuse of office. At the same time, there was a decrease by 14.6 percent in the total number of persons on the wanted list. At the same time, the number of fugitive servicemen decreased by 12.3 percent.

The meeting of the expanded board of the Main Military Investigation Directorate of the TFR was attended by First Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs - Commander-in-Chief of the Internal Troops of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, General of the Army Viktor Zolotov, State Secretary - Deputy Minister of Defense Nikolai Pankov, Head of the Department of the Presidential Directorate for Combating Corruption Mikhail Baranchuk, Deputy Chairman of the Supreme court of the Russian Federation - Chairman of the Judicial Collegium for Military Affairs Vladimir Khomchik, Deputy Prosecutor General of the Russian Federation - Chief Military Prosecutor Sergei Fridinsky, Head of the Department of the Federal Security Service Lieutenant General Nikolai Yuriev.

WHY LOST HIS LAST BATTLE NIKOLAI YUDENICH

July 18 marks the 145th anniversary of the birth of Infantry General Nikolai Nikolaevich Yudenich, which gives a reason to talk in more detail about his fate. In fact, until now, he is known only as the worst enemy of the Soviet regime. At the same time, with a clear conscience, he can be attributed to the most talented commanders of the First World War. The victories he won from 1914 to 1916 on the Caucasian front put the Turks on the brink of defeat: the Allies in the Entente had already divided the Ottoman Empire on paper. And if it were not for the "Russian 17th year", as Winston Churchill wrote, "they (the Russians) would eventually reach Baghdad and Istanbul."

General N.N. Yudenich.

On May 7, 1917, Nikolai Yudenich was removed from his post as commander of the Caucasian Front "as resisting the instructions of the Provisional Government." Such a reaction from A.F. Kerensky followed after the general, taking into account the beginning difficulties in supply and with the reinforcement of troops, decided to go over to a strategic defense. The new government, in order to please the allies, demanded that they continue to go forward. So Nikolai Nikolaevich was retired. And it was politics that negatively influenced the further fate of the general. The general was not ready for such twists and turns of fate. Unlike, say, his classmate at the Academy of the General Staff, Baron Karl Mannerheim, with whom they initially planned to organize a campaign against revolutionary Petrograd: This happened almost immediately after both ended up in Finland, leaving Russia in December 17th.

MANNERHEIM LINE

During the days of the February Revolution, the commander of the 6th Cavalry Corps, Lieutenant General Mannerheim, was on vacation in Petrograd. The hotel doorman warned the assembled to take a walk "their excellency" that it was not safe to go out into the city in a general's uniform: "Riots." Baron Mannerheim returned to his room.

This episode is given in the book by A.I. Solzhenitsyn's "March of the Seventeenth". The baron himself, already being a Marshal of Finland, also recalled more than once how for the first time in his life he obeyed the "ridiculous advice", but it was then that he promised "to take revenge on the Bolsheviks and all other troublemakers." That is exactly what he did when he returned to his homeland. A Finnish nobleman, he did not know his native language well (according to other sources, at first he even communicated with his subordinates through an interpreter), but he knew how to fight well. Then he will become known to the world as the creator of the famous "Mannerheim Line", which our troops had to break through twice - in 1940 and 44, but for now a new line of life for the general began to emerge. On January 16, 1918, he appeared in the Diet and offered himself to be the leader of the anti-Bolshevik struggle. Together with his former enemy, the German general R. von Goltz, by May he had defeated the local Red Guard and the Russian units still remaining in Finland.

The Russian soldiers, whom he commanded for nearly thirty years, the baron began to call nothing other than the occupiers. Although the noble emigration that poured into the former Grand Duchy of Finland after the Bolsheviks seized power in Petrograd and Moscow, there were no problems here (there is evidence that about 20 thousand people moved here, including most of the St. Petersburg industrialists and bankers). In Helsingfors (Helsinki), a Russian political committee of a monarchical orientation was formed, which nominated Nikolai Yudenich as the leader of the anti-Soviet struggle in northwestern Russia. And the created so-called "Political Conference" began to fulfill the role of a kind of government in exile under the general.

It was with the consent of the regent of Finland, who was then Baron Mannerheim, that Nikolai Nikolaevich announced the formation of the White Guard army. Almost 2.5 thousand officers who settled on Finnish soil agreed to fight under the command of a general who did not know defeat on the front. It was after one of the meetings with Mannerheim that Yudenich wrote: "KGM (Karl Gustav Mannerheim) advises to attack from two directions - from Estonia and from here, from the north. Everything will be shown by a meeting with L., he must agree. K. GM will prepare a message for L. ... ". "In Revel, matters were resolved quickly. L. recalled the Caucasus" - this is from another entry.

This is how another character appears in our story. L. is Colonel Johan Laidoner (according to church metrics - Ivan Yakovlevich), the Estonian commander-in-chief. The son of a farm laborer from the Raba farm, who was helped by an Orthodox priest to finish the city school, made an excellent career in the Russian army. After the Vilnius infantry school he ended up in the Transcaucasus. Then the Nikolaev Academy, from where in 1912 he returned to his former place of service, for two years under the command of Yudenich he was an officer of the district headquarters.

He met the war on the border with Turkey, and in 1915 he was transferred to the post of deputy chief of intelligence of the Western Front. Then he served as chief of staff and division commander. At the age of 34 he became a member of the first Estonian government. The former commander of the Caucasian Front saw in his former subordinate not only a potential ally. It was to Estonia that the White Guard Northern Corps, defeated near Pskov at the end of 1918, retreated. On its basis, the general wanted to create his own army. In any case, Yudenich received the "go-ahead" of the Estonian Prime Minister Konstantin Päts.

WE DO NOT NEED "SUCH ALLIES"

I found interesting material clarifying the goals of the first government of the Republic of Estonia in the Tartu newspaper Postimees (Postman) of February 18, 1919. It directly states that Päts and Laidoner want to attack the "second Russian capital" together with the White Guards and finally cut off Russia from the Baltic Sea.

Probably, everything would have happened, had not proclaimed General von Goltz, appointed by that time the commander of the German troops in the Baltic States, the creation of the so-called Baltic Duchy under the protectorate of Berlin. Under the Versailles Peace Treaty, German divisions remained in the Baltic to fight the Bolsheviks. And at first, when von Goltz fought against the Soviets, his actions were supported by the Entente and the governments of the Baltic countries. Baron Mannerheim, for example, sent telegrams to Revel (Tallinn) with requests that Päts' cabinet provide assistance to the "German friends". Laidoner was awarded the rank of general and ordered to defeat the Red troops defending the north of Latvia. Estonians actually provided German rear services. So von Goltz carried out without obstacles what he had planned: he occupied Riga and overthrew the government of K. Ulmanis, which was previously friendly to him. Riga was proclaimed the capital of the Baltic Duchy. At the same time, a wave of secret meetings of baronial organizations that supported the idea of a "Baltic German state" swept across Estonia. And the Landeswehr (the troops of the Enzei barons), which was under German command, after the capture of Riga, immediately turned north, this time to deal with the Estonians.

Panic arose in Revel. The government, which met several times for a day, could not find the necessary solution. The situation was aggravated by the fact that disappointing news came from the "Red Front" too. Soldiers tired of the war began to leave their positions, the 2nd and 6th companies in full force, after negotiations with the red Estonian riflemen, dispersed to their homes. Because of fraternization with the "Russian enemy", the 2nd Cavalry Regiment had to be disbanded.

The book of the English reporter R. Pollack "St. George's Days", published in London in 1925, contains Yudenich's correspondence with the Northern Corps. Its commander, Major General A.P. Rodzianko reported in April 1919: "There is complete confusion here. I am afraid that our soldiers are also subject to defeatist sentiments. The only way to raise spirits and prevent panic is to attack the Soviets." Yudenich, realizing that such arguments are insufficient for the deployment of hostilities, asked to wait a little ("The army is not fully formed, and if you please see what goals our allies have, they differ from ours:" warns the commander Nikolai Nikolaevich). The British insisted on "decisive actions", whose squadron had arrived in Revel in December 1918.

Yudenich's letter caught up with Rodzianko on the march. The Northern Corps was advancing and had already captured Yamburg, and British ships entered the Gulf of Finland. But Nikolai Nikolaevich, even while in Finland, turned out to be right about the situation in the Baltics. "Everyone has their own war," - these words belong to Laidoner, who removed most of his troops from

By July, the Estonian army was conducting a series of successful operations against the von Goltz group, which also included the Landeswehr. Laidoner managed to reach Riga. Of the possible options, as life has shown, the leaders of the defense of Petrograd also chose not the worst. The 7th Soviet Army launched a counteroffensive at the very moment when the Northern Corps (from June 19 it was called the Northern Army) was completely exhausted, stretched out along the front, and could no longer get reserves. The Estonians and the British were occupied by von Goltz. And Rodzianko's battered regiments hurriedly rolled away from Petrograd.

Admiral Alexander Kolchak, whose supremacy in the anti-Bolshevik movement Yudenich immediately recognized, after the defeat of the Northern Army asked Nikolai Nikolayevich to "personally take" command of all "forces in the northwest." The new commander transfers the leadership of the "Political Conference" from Helsinki to Revel in order to lead the Northern Army (in some sources it is called the Northwest Army). And before that, he concludes a military agreement with Baron Mannerheim, who, in response to a promise to recognize the independence of Finland, announced the participation of seven divisions in a new campaign against Petrograd. But Kolchak in his message insisted "on one and indivisible", and Nikolai Nikolaevich removes his signature from the agreement, and then addresses with an appeal "to the population" about the restoration of Great Russia.

Infantry did not succeed in politics as a general. The deputy commander of the British military mission in the Baltic states, Brigadier General F. Marshi, gathered the members of the "Political Conference" and presented an ultimatum: in forty minutes to create a new "Northwest Government", recognize the sovereignty of Estonia and Finland and agree with the leaders of these countries on a joint struggle against Soviet Russia, otherwise the Entente "abandons you." As a result, on August 11 at 19:00 Yudenich lost all his "political portfolios" and remained only the commander of the Northern Army.

The attack on Petrograd prepared by him also failed, although by mid-October the forward White Guard patrols were 20 kilometers from the city. But it was from here, from the last line of defense, built in two weeks by the St. Petersburg volunteer workers, that the 7th Soviet Army responded with several effective counterattacks. And after a breakthrough from the Luga area to the rear of the 15th Army's white cavalry, Yudenich's grouping was under the threat of deep coverage from the south. There was only one thing left to do - to retreat.

The responses from Finland to the telegrams of the commander of the Northern Army were also different. The elected president K. Stolberg refused to send Mannerheim the Finnish divisions to take Petrograd. The open letter of the former regent to the president, read out in the Diet, did not help.

Across the Narva River, in Estonia, where the remnants of the White troops thrown back from Petrograd "finished", they were completely ... disarmed. Without much ado. By order of Laidoner! The day before, the British slipped the secret report they had intercepted to Kolchak to the Estonian cabinet of ministers, in which Yudenich suggested that the admiral abandon the services of "such allies" with the capture of Petrograd.

Nikolai Nikolaevich was put under house arrest, and then sent abroad. He gave up all political activity, lived unnoticed. And he died in Cannes in 1933, forgotten by everyone.

BORDER CROSSING

The borders of the RSFSR with Estonia and Finland were established precisely along the front line that had developed at the end of 1919. Russia signed peace treaties with these countries in the Estonian city of Tartu, which at that time still had its historical Russian name - Yuryev. And the contracts were also called Yurievsky for a long time.

The book "St. George's Days", which has already been mentioned, is just about this, and the reporter Pollack described his meetings with Yudenich when the general was in command of the Northern Army. After reading in London newspapers a message about the publication of the journalist's memoirs, Nikolai Nikolaevich, in a letter to his relatives, made an unexpected conclusion: “Once on St. George's day a serf could pass from master to master. ), and St. George's Day "appeared as soon as such departures stopped. After the current St. George's days, I will not appear anywhere, so I will die as a serf here ...". And the answer, it seems, is in the next line: "Nobody needs me for a long time, since I have made not allies, but enemies: And all that remains is to atone for sins:"

Russia, although it was already called the Soviet Union, having put an end to the turmoil, tried to return its former lands. The scenarios were different, but the essence was the same. The "winter" war with Finland failed, so at least the border moved away from Leningrad. A new rise of the former tsarist cavalryman, who became the Finnish commander-in-chief, who was wise "by experience of survival in constant conflicts with a neighbor", also dates back to this time. But it was Karl Gustav Mannerheim, already president, who in 1944 requested an armistice from Stalin, realizing that the continuation of the war on the side of Germany would end in complete defeat for Finland. And two years later he retired and left for Switzerland, where he died in 1951.

Konstantin Päts (center) and Johan Laidoner, he is still in Russian uniform, among the officers of the British squadron (Tallinn, early 1919).

Johan Laidoner became a national hero in Estonia after the War of Independence. Konstantin Päts became president. And 20 years later, it was he who was the first in the Estonian ruling elite to understand that it makes no sense for his country to compete with the strengthened Soviet Union. On June 16, 1940, when the government was discussing an ultimatum from Moscow on the deployment of Soviet troops in the republic, Päts, despite the objections of Commander-in-Chief Laidoner, urged "not to resist." The Commander-in-Chief of the Estonian Army had to go to Narva the next morning and sign with the Commander of the Leningrad Military District Army General Kirill Meretskov a protocol on the points of deployment of the Red Army units in Estonia.

A few months later, Laidoner was deported to Perm. Then the investigation and the conclusion. It is characteristic that the NKVD also charged him with "an attempt at a government conspiracy to resist the Red Army" in June 1940. But in the case of Päts, who also fell under the bad memory of Article 58, there is nothing of the kind. Otherwise, the investigative papers coincided: the president and the commander-in-chief were charged with the campaign of the Estonian divisions against Petrograd in 1919, the coup d'état organized by them in 1934, etc. Both died in Russia: Laidoner - in 1953 in the Vladimir prison, Päts - in 1956, when he was already serving his exile in the Kalinin region. The official history of Estonia does not mention Laidoner's campaign against Petrograd. "The army of Russians (Yudenich) who retreated from Petrograd, in order to avoid undesirable consequences for the internal state of the country, our government disbanded, and expelled many officers" - this is the only thing that can be read about the battles for the northern capital of Russia in books about the War of Independence. "I turned out to be an enemy for everyone," Nikolai Nikolaevich Yudenich summed up his life. And in this he was not mistaken.

An excerpt characterizing Yuriev, Evgeny Leonidovich (general)

Natasha looked with frightened eyes into the face of the wounded officer and immediately went to meet the major.
- Can the wounded stay in our house? She asked.
The major put his hand to the visor with a smile.
- Who do you want, Mamsel? He said, narrowing his eyes and smiling.
Natasha calmly repeated her question, and her face and her whole manner, despite the fact that she continued to hold her handkerchief by the ends, were so serious that the major stopped smiling and, at first thinking, as if asking herself to what extent this was possible, answered her in the affirmative.
“Oh, yes, why, you can,” he said.
Natasha slightly bowed her head and with quick steps returned to Mavra Kuzminishna, who was standing above the officer and talking to him with plaintive sympathy.
- You can, he said, you can! - Natasha said in a whisper.
The officer in the wagon turned into the Rostovs' courtyard, and dozens of carts with the wounded began, at the invitation of city residents, to turn into the courtyards and drive up to the entrances of the houses of Povarskaya Street. Natasha, apparently, recovered from these, outside the usual conditions of life, relations with new people. She, together with Mavra Kuzminishna, tried to turn as many wounded as possible into her yard.
“I still have to report it to my dad,” said Mavra Kuzminishna.
- Nothing, nothing, isn't it all the same! For one day we will move into the living room. You can give all of our half to them.
- Well, you, young lady, will come up with it! Yes, even in the outbuilding, in the bachelor, to the nanny, and then you have to ask.
- Well, I'll ask.
Natasha ran into the house and tiptoed into the half-open door of the sofa, from which smelled of vinegar and Hoffman drops.
- Are you sleeping, Mom?
- Oh, what a dream! - said, waking up, the countess who had just dozed off.
“Mom, darling,” Natasha said, kneeling down in front of her mother and putting her face close to hers. - I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I never will, I woke you up. Mavra Kuzminishna sent me, here they brought the wounded, officers, will you? And they have nowhere to go; I know that you will allow ... - she spoke quickly, without taking a breath.
- What officers? Whom did they bring? I don’t understand anything, ”said the Countess.
Natasha laughed, the Countess also smiled faintly.
“I knew that you would let me ... so I will say so. - And Natasha, kissing her mother, got up and went to the door.
In the hall she met her father, who had returned home with bad news.
- We were sitting too long! The count said with involuntary annoyance. - And the club is closed and the police are leaving.
- Dad, is it okay that I invited the wounded into the house? Natasha said to him.
“Nothing, of course,” the count said absently. “That’s not the point, but now I ask you not to deal with trifles, but to help pack and go, go, go tomorrow…” And the count conveyed the same order to the butler and the people. At dinner, Petya returned to tell his news.
He said that today the people were dismantling weapons in the Kremlin, that although Rostopchin's poster says that he will call the cry in two days, but that the order has probably been made that tomorrow all the people will go to the Three Mountains with weapons, and that there there will be a big battle.
The Countess looked with timid horror at the merry, flushed face of her son while he was saying this. She knew that if she said a word that she was asking Petya not to go to this battle (she knew that he was happy about this upcoming battle), he would say something about men, about honor, about a fatherland, something like that. meaningless, masculine, stubborn, against which one cannot object, and the matter will be ruined, and therefore, hoping to arrange so as to leave before this and take Petya with her, as a protector and patron, she did not say anything to Petya, and after dinner she called the count and with tears she begged him to take her away as soon as possible, on the same night, if possible. With a woman's, involuntary cunning of love, she, who until now had shown complete fearlessness, said that she would die of fear if they did not leave that night. She, without pretending, was now afraid of everything.

M me Schoss, who went to see her daughter, further increased the countess's fear by telling stories about what she saw in the drinking office on Myasnitskaya Street. Returning down the street, she could not walk home from the drunken crowd of people raging outside the office. She took a cab and drove home in an alley; and the cabman told her that the people were breaking barrels in the drinking office, which was so ordered.
After dinner, all the Rostovs' household with enthusiastic haste set to work packing up their things and preparing for their departure. The old count, suddenly getting down to business, kept walking from courtyard to house and back after dinner, stupidly shouting at the hurrying people and hurrying them even more. Petya gave orders in the yard. Sonya did not know what to do under the influence of the count's contradictory orders, and was completely lost. People, shouting, arguing and noisy, ran through the rooms and the courtyard. Natasha, with her characteristic passion in everything, suddenly, too, set to work. At first, her interference in the bedding business was greeted with disbelief. Everyone expected a joke from her and did not want to obey her; but with persistence and passion she demanded obedience to herself, was angry, almost cried that they did not listen to her, and, finally, achieved the fact that they believed in her. Her first feat, which cost her enormous efforts and gave her power, was the laying of carpets. The count had expensive gobelins and Persian rugs in his house. When Natasha got down to business, there were two open boxes in the hall: one almost completely stacked with porcelain, the other with carpets. There was still a lot of porcelain on the tables, and still everything was carried from the pantry. It was necessary to start a new, third box, and people followed it.
- Sonia, wait, we'll put everything in this way, - said Natasha.
“You’re not allowed, young lady, we’ve already tried it,” said the bartender.
- No, wait, please. - And Natasha began to take dishes and plates wrapped in paper from the drawer.
“The dishes must be here, in the carpets,” she said.
- Yes, and the carpets, God forbid, spread out into three boxes, - said the barman.
- Wait, please. - And Natasha quickly, deftly began to disassemble. “It’s not necessary,” she said about Kiev plates, “yes, it’s in the carpets,” she said about Saxon dishes.
- Yes, leave it, Natasha; well enough, we'll put it to bed, - Sonia said reproachfully.
- Eh, young lady! The butler said. But Natasha did not give up, threw out all the things and quickly began to pack again, deciding that bad home carpets and unnecessary dishes should not be taken at all. When everything was taken out, they began to lay again. And indeed, having thrown away almost everything that was cheap, that which was not worth taking with you, everything of value was put in two boxes. Only the lid of the carpet drawer did not close. It was possible to take out a few things, but Natasha wanted to insist on her own. She put, shifted, pressed, made the barman and Petya, whom she had taken with her into the work of packing, to press the lid, and she herself made desperate efforts.
