About the book: year / Duty above all - everyone who took the oath of service to the Motherland knows this. But what if you suddenly found yourself in the distant future? What if you've been given a huge responsibility that you're not ready for? What to do then? What should I do? But the Motherland will remain the Motherland in the future! This means you need to follow the oath. Captain of the Red Army Alexei Korshunov, without expecting it, moved from a trench in 1943 to board the White Cruiser, the flagship of the fleet of the Russian Empire. The AI ​​of the White Cruiser recognized him as its captain. But the one whom the AI ​​recognized as captain simultaneously became the new Emperor of Ross. And then everything depended only on him, on his determination and strength, since the emperor has no right to be weak, otherwise he will destroy the country. So the Soviet officer had to shoulder an impossible burden and pull it, clenching his teeth. After all, the emperor has only a duty, nothing else - or he is not an emperor, but a nonentity! To make it easier to understand, measures of weight, length and time are given in units familiar to the Russian-speaking reader. New terms and concepts are explained either in the text itself or in footnotes. All coincidences with real-life people or events are random, the novel from beginning to end is the fruit of the author’s imagination.
