PART

SIBERIA, 1875

Idiots! You're going to end up breaking entire load!

Commander, his concern this car begins to intrigue.

I'm responsible for it.

Would it be indiscreet to ask what's in it so precious?

I'll tell you: A load porcelain boxes.

- Pardon? - Porcelain!

His Imperial Highness the Grand-Duke Dimitri, is horrified to eat

in anything that is not served in china and there is nothing better.

- What is that? - An ancient fortified post,

time of the conquest. At times, this region belonged to the Uzbeks.

What happened to these people?

Like all other Tartar tribes, scattered in all directions.

- What now? - Thank God no longer make war

and are limited to pamper his troops.

Stop!

Is it too isolated to be a pastor, right?

Holy God, they are on the warpath!

Fire!

We can not tolerate the dissemination of this kind of agitation.

We never got to that point, Majesty.

There are, here or there, some agitation or disorder,

but without a real coordination.

- It is natural in such vast territories. - No.

I confess, considering it "natural".

Majesty, Your Royal Highness is Dimitri guarantor of our security.

It's true. And that does not reach to let me rest.

My dear brother is also very inexperienced,

I do not think, General, that he is able to maintain its position.

I never should have sent him there.

Still, I know that the province of Irkutsk that His Highness directs

is calm. In any case, and is so far.

For how long, nobody knows.

I do not think the turmoil can be lengthened.

Only plunder, pillage and plunder guide the Tartars.

They are not dangerous while not emanating from them one

be a leader willing of gathering and of directing.

I do not think such a man exists. We have nothing to fear.

Pray to God to be right, General.

Follow me, Ogareff.

It's all there.

Good luck, Colonel.

Hurry, are waiting.

Come Tzingos.

I would never have imagined that a woman would do what you did.

I know. The people of your race think women only serve to the harem.

I wanted so much to see ... have crossed mountains.

Failure to do so more difficult. "My orders were fulfilled?

Yes, it is awaited with an impatience ...

... we can not control. - What do you mean?

- Several tribes have already taken action. - What?

He had forbidden that they should do before the general revolt!

- Y. .. updates. - What?

Four days ago, Khan Feofar and the other emirs of Turkestan

pierced the Siberian border with 50 thousand soldiers.

"Feofar Khan?

And may I know what it does? We should act together.

Did you think he's alliance was disinterested?

- Above all, we are Tatars. - You're cheating.

Your beautiful Siberian republic independent and not interested.

He will use to serve their interests and personal ambitions.

- The time of Genghis Khan is gone. - You know that;

He, no. - I got all the tribes of me.

First, it is necessary to defeat the czar.

For now, you Feofar Khan precis�is each other.

Look at them.

Look at all these Cossacks the Russians said they were invincible.

We utterly destroyed in the first attack.

Indeed, these Cossacks not were but a small vanguard.

No matter, Taizis. They were defeated.

Destroyed the Cossacks in the first battle because we are invincible.

Nobody can stop us.

May Allah protect us and hear you, Feofar.

He listens, Taizis. He listens to me.

Before the first moon, we will together the great empire of our country.

I bring very good news for our cause.

Ogareff has escaped from the citadel of Tver

and goes to Siberia to join us.

This is good news, Taizis.

The Siberian Tatars are faithful. Your address will be very useful.

From here, and fast! You should all be riding.

Mr. Jolivet, all is well that ends well,

and we are very excited to be able raise their glasses to their health.

The death of no importance when he narrowly escapes.

Our empire Siberian

looks like an ocean at its sometimes the wind blows.

Let us ask Him to forgive its storms.

I am ready to return from morning to attempt the crossing.

We knew that the French We were in so much friendship.

Our readers fight for the Russian news.

Believe that the fascination is mutual. What was Porphyre?

Until then, gentlemen.

You have seen that, tell me how are these Tartars.

What do we know of the tribes Our Siberia, at the moment?

Your Majesty rebel forces are supported by them.

It seems a concerted organization of long duration.

Have you told him? He escaped a man our citadel of Tver.

- Yes, Your Majesty. He apparently was ... - A certain Ivan Ogareff.

A colonel of the brightest, brave officer,

among other things, an excellent tactician. That's what this report says.

The father was Russian and Tatar mother was.

He was demoted and sentenced for high treason,

for having, on several occasions, professed republican views,

in Siberia, and recommended the establishment of a republic.

And the report adds, which is very serious:

"This traitor is linked to leaders Tatars of various tribes.

If so, Your Majesty, is serious, very serious.

Especially at this man which is the soul of the revolt.

It should stop it, Your Majesty,

at all costs,

wherever he hides. - Take all necessary measures.

The traitor can not get to Siberia, which could have serious consequences.

Monitor all entrances,

diligently monitor stops and the ways of the Empire.

From here there are 1,500 miles. It is impossible to have already arrived.

I count on you to stop.

- I will give me the best. - It is of utmost urgency, General.

Dimitri is in Irkutsk, and rebels can not take possession of it.

He knows his character fragile and unstable.

- Majesty ... - Enough, General.

I am very afraid that, faced with danger, my brother is released on adventures.

Send without delay and by telegraph, the following orders ...

But how escape?

I think I walked about 200 miles.

And without eating?

Without eating, my wife, except I got a crow get by.

I am sure he would have preferred starvation.

Mr. Jolivet, let me introduce to his British colleague,

Mr. Blount. Mr. Jolivet.

- Nice. - How are you?

- What newspaper? - "Daily Telegraph", sir?

- From "Gaulois". - Gentlemen, let's leave them alone.

We must go to save the dear Irina, whom General Kouriakine

account for the hundredth time the siege of Sebastopol.

- Are you here as a journalist? - Why not?

- The lord is. - What kind of story?

Perhaps the same as the master.

- To the health of the "Gaulois". - In the Daily Telegraph.

- Majesty! - What, Kissof?

A catastrophe, Your Majesty.

The telegraph between Kalyvan and Tomsk has stopped working.

It is impossible to communicate with Irkutsk.

Is it already out by the army Feofar Khan? It is impossible.

He was a rebel tribe, no doubt.

There is only a means to notify my brother from danger, without delay.

An email.

Come on!

Understood?

The tour was done in three minutes.

I did better.

"Hey, Captain, yesterday evening,

not too celebrated the anniversary Comrade Pavel Feodorovitch?

Captain Michael,

The Czar expects it, without delay, in the imperial palace.

And your name?

Michael, Your Majesty.

"For how long is one of my emails?

Three years ago, Your Majesty.

- And before that? - Lieutenant in the regiment Souvaroff.

As remarkable facts, Your Majesty.

Strogoff, with General Souvaroff participated in the expedition ...

What region is it?

Omsk.

Siberian! Bravo.

We need someone who knows this territory well.

No one knows Siberia better than me, Majesty.

What do you think of the Grand-Duke Dimitri Michel Strogoff?

It is an officer Body of Tsar post

try one of the members imperial family.

Give me the pleasure of telling me what you think. Please.

I said that the Grand Duke Dimitri is one of the best Russian valsistas.

- Remember who you are, and who speaks! - Give it up, does no wrong.

Captain, I want one of my mails

go to Irkutsk. Report it that way.

Whether they do arrive, as rapidly, the orders of Tsar

He must therefore be a man.

- I am that man, Your Majesty. - Okay.

Okay, listen carefully.

The Grand-Duke should not try arrival in Moscow.

That he remains hidden in Irkutsk, and not out there,

until we get send reinforcements.

Our enemies will do everything to seize it.

For them it would be worth more a victory.

You will be responsible for safeguarding Grand Duke Dimitri.

Your mission is extremely dangerous. You have to go through all of Siberia,

and you have to do for the empire.

Used up horses that are accurate,

but I will get. - No.

Captain, can not act normally.

Listen. It is likely that the rebels have agents on all sides;

both in the Administration as in the Army.

The purpose of your mission should not, and can not be disclosed.

The Tsar pretends to know nothing of these rebels.

And you will travel under the identity of a trader.

By any other means. No one should know who he is, no one;

and, above all, none of our police.

From this moment, you're a man alone.

Prepare to have your own forces, and only with them.

- I'm ready, Your Majesty. - Here is the stamp ...

... you will credit on the Grand-Duke.

Above all, not show it to anyone.

General Kissof will explain the details

and to give you everything you need.

I wish you good luck, Captain.

- A ticket to Nizhny Novgorod. - Nizhny Novgorod ...

Copeqs four rubles and 25.

One more. It is the third, since this morning.

- Why stop? - It seems that they are spies Tartars.

Come on, hurry, the train will leave.

- I'm late. - It shortly.

Darling, if we want to save repetition of dinner,

I propose a solution. - What?

- We travel together. - Why not?

Among journalists, we can understand.

- Are your papers, sir? - Here are ...

- Thanks. - Nothing.

Their papers, sir.

- And they seek? - Control. Thank you very much.

- Do you know what it is? - Yes

Bravo, wastes no time, right?

We intercepted a man who think that is the soul of the revolt Tartar

and must be on the way to Siberia. - Like us.

- Like us. - Between us ... Who want to win?

- The Czar goes to waste in Siberia. - I think it will keep.

- I bet three to one. - Bet, dear Blount, bet.

What do you think?

Excellent! Rarely I drank one as good.

This tea is the best you can drink, in this territory.

I must say that paying four rubles per kilo, wholesale prices,

and bought a tonne.

Transportation is done by caravan Manchuria from.

He would be surprised if this time

their caravans of Manchuria had come to the fair.

- They will not be there. - Why?

I was told that Tartar tribes insurgent

control the routes from Siberia and burn everything they find.

This is false. The newspaper explained yesterday that our troops are in position

and that these territories are pacified.

Do not tell me you think our newspapers.

The information was given to me by a friend who recently returned from Omsk.

He had problems to leave the city

avoiding the rebel forces, they are everywhere.

We must be careful what we say.

It would be more sensible. Do not know who is listening.

Is he going to Nizhniy Novgorod, if not indiscreet?

- Yes - Rumor has it that this year ...

... the show promises to be good. - It was what I was told.

"Mr. also is a merchant?

Yes, exactly.

And if I may, what branch?

In textiles.

Textiles! It seems that textiles will give many benefits, for now.

Yes, they will go very well.

We'll get to Vladimir within a few minutes.

I guess the girl looking for a comfortable place.

There is one that is expressly for you. If you please ...

Let me put it up.

Fast.

Will you?

- No, y gracias. - It's good.

Do you like vodka?

Do not look sideways. This vodka cost me ...

... a ruble and 25 copeqs per bottle. It is the best vodka.

Come on, just one little drink.

Not rejected and to lvan lvanovitch Balachine,

that is always ready to defend the pretty girls.

I do not think that a beautiful person like the girl

does not like a drink of vodka, from time to time.

"At least, you can respond when I speak to you?

- Leave that girl alone. - Let us now! A fan brave.

We will see this.

- Drink. - I told him to leave her alone!

Why are you interfering? It is extraordinary!

Okay?

He has no right!

It's unbelievable. Incredible!

- What? - I do not understand.

We are far Nizhni-Novgorod.

Police control.

Show your papers, please.

Looking for someone?

Perhaps, could it be the prisoner who fled from Tver?

What next?

If so, watching carefully that individual documents,

back there.

You know him?

I am sure that is not a trader, as he claims.

Can I see your passport, if you please?

- Nicholas Korpanoff. Is your name? - Yes

- He claims to be a trader. - I am.

Where is your luggage?

It remains to be seen ... It is a gun Army, right?

Follow us.

Come, come.

It was good information, right?

Freedom, Freedom dear ...

It seems that around here do not pay much attention to the tissues.

Not all people can be brought to the Bastille, my dear.

But it is not advisable to travel in this country under a false identity.

- What do you think of that? - Is the master?

Do you think that man can be really looking for?

Darling, whoever he is, or not, I would not be in place.

Now, will tell us who he is.

Nicolas Korpanoff. I am a trader.

I go to Nizhni-Novgorod fair, business.

With a pistol from Army in baggage?

Well, we'll see. We can only take you there.

Nizhniy Novgorod is a large commercial city.

Without doubt, it should meet someone.

But know that we do not like spies, or traitors,

and if we lied, remember that ... Will be shot!

We are about to reach the suburbs, Sgt. Where do we go?

At the governor's palace directly.

Stop! Stop!

Stop! Stop! Stop!

Stop!

At ease!

Over here!

Over here!

Stop! Stop!

Look in this direction.

If you please, is that the steam going to Kazan and Perm?

- When part? - Tomorrow at nine hours.

We have time. Let coals.

- Can I board? - No. Do not you see that is closed?

Want to try?

Good morning. What a coincidence ...

I am very happy for having freed.

They released me.

I fled.

Do not be afraid. He did nothing wrong.

And now, what will?

I must continue my journey.

I would love to help, but do not know anyone here.

I do not know anybody.

Not going to the fair?

I'll take the boat tomorrow.

I also had to take that boat.

That is not difficult.

- Y. - Why?

I have a long journey ahead,

and try to make a living at each stage to continue.

Come!

So in love ...

very strong. - No, I saw nothing.

Is it the girl?

Thank you, thank you very much.

- I think I'll go now. - And the letters?

- Do not want that take a look? - No thanks.

I will make a bid.

- Me? - Yes

Come on. The square must be free before noon. Hurry! Hurry!

- We do not have enough time! - Get rid of him.

- It's an order of the Governor. - Why that order?

- Tatars were seen among the crowd. - That's nonsense.

Are orders. At noon, the square has to be empty. Come on!

Come on!

Come on! Hurry!

- Do you think going to happen? - I hope so.

It is a beautiful couple, right?

It is unexpected, no doubt.

I wondered who would not like be in place.

His real name is Strogoff.

He is not the that can save the Grand-Duke.

Since I spoke of this man, I was taken by a premonition.

I am sure he represents a threat to you.

Were your stars the they told you that?

Does this not interest you, Ivan?

I see everything he says about you as if written in a book.

And you know that very well.

You have to get rid of this man, regardless, Ivan.

What happens?

- What happened? - Nothing.

I heard a noise.

Everything is calm, I guarantee it.

- Okay, good evening, sir. - Good evening.
