Sokov took a stroll on the street, just on a whim, just wandering around without any destination.
Just as he judged, the city was under military control. Everywhere he looked, there were soldiers everywhere. He only walked forward four to five hundred meters when he encountered two patrol teams of twenty people. The leader of the team
When the commander saw a major passing by them, not only did he not stop him to ask, but on the contrary, he raised his hand and saluted him.
Faced with the commander who saluted him, Sokov naturally would not choose to ignore it, but stopped and returned the salute to the other person before continuing to move forward.
The shops and cafes on both sides of the street were all open. Looking in through the open doors, most of the people moving inside were military figures, and there was no trace of civilians at all. Seeing this situation, Sokov couldn't help but start to think secretly,
Now that the city has been under military control, how did the spies from Xiaotian sneak in? You must know that Europeans and Asians are very different in appearance. Let alone entering the city, the spies from Xiaotian probably just approached the checkpoint.
, your identity will be revealed.
Because Sokov was walking and thinking about the problem, he didn't notice an open jeep approaching, with a lieutenant colonel sitting in the back seat. But the jeep passed by him, and he hurriedly went to
He moved his body to the right to make way for the other party.
After walking a few steps forward, he suddenly heard someone shouting from behind: "Hey, that major in front of you, stop!"
Sokov did not think of his current identity for a moment, so he did not associate the shout with himself and continued to walk forward with his head buried.
Unexpectedly, the jeep that he had just passed by reversed and stopped in front of him. The lieutenant, who was sitting in the passenger seat, said angrily: "Major, I called you, why didn't you answer me?"
When Sokov heard what the lieutenant said, he looked around and found that there was no one around. The lieutenant should be talking to himself. He pointed at his nose and asked: "Comrade Lieutenant, are you talking to me?"
"
"Is there anyone else here besides you?" the lieutenant said viciously.
Sokov looked at the lieutenant carefully and found a completely unfamiliar face, so he smiled and asked: "Comrade lieutenant, what do you want me to do?"
"Comrade Major," the lieutenant asked coldly, "have you learned the regulations of our army?"
"Yes, I have learned." Sokov nodded and asked, "Did I do anything wrong?"
"Since you have learned the regulations of our army, why don't you salute your commander when you see him with a higher rank than you?"
A commander with a higher rank than himself, Sokov looked to the left and right again. Except for himself and Lieutenant Colonel Huang in the back seat of the jeep, he did not see anyone with a higher rank than the lieutenant in front of him. He was a little confused.
He asked in confusion: "Where is the commander with a higher rank than me?"
"Well, isn't this it?" the lieutenant pointed at the lieutenant colonel sitting in the back row: "This is the deputy commander of our regiment. When you see him, why don't you salute him?"
Sokov secretly screamed, not to mention that he was just thinking about the problem and did not notice the lieutenant colonel sitting in the back of the jeep. Even if he saw it, he probably would not salute. After all, he is also a general, how could he be casual?
What about saluting someone with a lower military rank than yourself?
However, he soon thought that he was not General Sokov now, but Major Matevosyan from Moscow. Facing the lieutenant colonel sitting behind the jeep, he could only salute first. After thinking about this, he
He raised his hand and saluted the other party, and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, I was thinking about the problem just now and didn't see you. Please forgive me for my rudeness."
But the lieutenant colonel snorted coldly after hearing this, and did not raise his hand to return the salute. Instead, he said coldly: "Major, what is your name, which unit you belong to, and who is the commander? I want to call your superiors and tell them
Report your impolite behavior to the superior commander to him and ask him to punish you."
After hearing this, Sokov was a little annoyed. He felt that the other party was simply making trouble unreasonably. Let alone a general, even if he was just a major, because he was thinking about something, he did not notice the arrival of a lieutenant colonel and did not salute him.
This is not a big deal at all, and there is no need to go online like this. Just when he was hesitating whether he needed to reveal his true identity to intimidate the other party, there was a rush of footsteps behind him.
Sokov turned his head and looked in the direction of the sound, and saw two soldiers with guns running towards here. From the blue hats they were wearing, Sokov recognized at a glance that the opponent was Beziko.
A subordinate of Major Husband. If it were any other time and he found out that Bezikov sent someone to follow him, Sokov might be unhappy, but at this moment, the arrival of the other party rescued him, making Sokov feel relieved.
.
The arrival of the two soldiers indeed reversed the situation here. Despite their low military ranks, as they took out their IDs and waved them at the people in the jeep, the originally arrogant lieutenant suddenly became silent, and
The lieutenant colonel sitting in the back row also changed his expression.
Although Sokov didn't know what documents the two soldiers took out, he knew that it would be enough to scare the people in the jeep. He asked quietly: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, do I still need to identify myself to you?"
?”
"No, no," the lieutenant colonel hurriedly waved his hands and said, "This is all a misunderstanding. If my adjutant did anything impolite just now, please forgive me. Comrade Major, can I leave now?
?”
Sokov did not speak, but nodded slightly, indicating that they could leave.
After the jeep drove away, Sokov expressed his gratitude to the two soldiers who suddenly appeared: "Two comrades, thank you very much for your timely appearance, otherwise the colonel and I would have had an unpleasant dispute."
"General... No, Comrade Major." A soldier said: "It was Major Bezikov who asked us to protect you. I hope you don't blame him."
"Why should I blame him?" Sokov said with a smile: "The people he sent to secretly protect me rescued me at a critical moment. It was too late for me to thank him, so how could I blame him? I still want to
Wander around the street for a while, and you can follow me from a distance. As long as I don’t run into any more trouble, you don’t have to show up. Do you understand?”
"clear!"
Sokov continued to walk forward, and soon came to a crossroads. When he was considering which direction to go, a sweet voice suddenly came from beside him: "Comrade Commander, are you lost?"
Sokov turned his head and saw that the person speaking was a woman. More importantly, this woman was not a Soviet female soldier, or even a Soviet, but a young Chinese woman with her hair in a bun and a blue short-sleeved cheongsam.
"Yeah, I'm thinking about which way to go." Seeing Chinese people here made Sokov feel more friendly. He asked tentatively: "I wonder if I can ask the girl to be my guide?"
The woman was carrying a small bag on her right arm and an exquisite ladies' watch on her left wrist. After hearing what Sokov said, she raised her hand and glanced at the time on the watch, and then said: "Comrade Commander, I am a soldier.
The nurse at the hospital is going to work. If you don't mind, can you walk with me for a while?"
"Of course." Sokov naturally wishes to have such a beautiful compatriot by his side, "Then please help me lead the way."
The two crossed the intersection and walked along the street.
The woman asked: "Comrade Commander, I see that you are not a garrison here. You have just come from other places, right?"
"Yes, I just came from out of town yesterday and didn't know anything about the environment here, so I just went out for a walk."
The woman glanced at Sokov and continued to ask: "Comrade Commander, I don't know how to call you?"
"My name is Matevosyan." Sokov said carelessly: "You can call me Major Matevosyan. By the way, girl, how should I call you?"
"My Chinese name is Si Shuyun, and my Russian name is Sonia." The woman said, "You can call me Sonia."
"Sonia," Sokov asked curiously, "You should not be from our country, how come you are here?"
"After the south was occupied by Japanese pirates, life was very difficult. In 1942, I secretly crossed the border with a few fellow villagers and escaped here."
"Where are your fellow countrymen? Are they working in military hospitals like you?"
Unexpectedly, Sonia shook her head after hearing this and replied with a gloomy expression: "They were shot to death by Japanese pirates when they were crossing the border. I was the only one who escaped by luck."
Knowing that Sonia escaped from the iron clutches of Japanese pirates, Sokov became more and more curious about her experience: "How did you enter the military hospital after you came to Khabarovsk?"
Hearing Sokov's question, Sonia hesitated for a moment, and then said: "It's a coincidence that I had no friends after I came here. When I was worried about making a living, I unexpectedly met a fellow villager. He was in his 40s.
I followed the Anti-Japanese Alliance to the Soviet Union in 2001. Because I was injured and disabled, I could not stay in the army and worked, so I was assigned to work at the post office in Khabarovsk. With his help, I successfully entered the local military hospital."
Regarding the history of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, Sokov knew that in 1940, the Anti-Union Army was in a difficult situation. In order to preserve its strength and continue to fight against Japanese pirates, starting from October of that year, it was gradually transferred to the Soviet Union for rest and reorganization. The Soviet Union took over the Anti-Japanese Alliance
After the troops arrived, two camps were built for them, one in the village of Yask, 75 kilometers northeast of Khabarovsk, and the other between Vladivostok and Shuangchengzi.
"Major Matievosian," Sonia suddenly asked, "I see that a large number of troops are gathered here. Are they ready to attack the Japanese pirates?"
Sonia's question immediately alerted Sokov. A nurse working in a military hospital must know the situation in the Khabarovsk area better than he did. How could he suddenly ask if he was going to attack the Japanese pirates?
What? You must know that the Far East Campaign is still an absolutely confidential matter at this moment, otherwise Vasilevsky and others would have rushed to Khabarovsk under a pseudonym.
"I'm sorry, Sonia." Although Sokov had doubts about Sonia's identity, the suspicion was just a suspicion and could not explain anything, so he said euphemistically: "I was just ordered to come here to perform a task. As for the
This is the first time I have heard of what you are talking about." After saying this, he reminded himself in his mind that this woman named Sonia appeared so strangely that before he could find out her true identity, he had to deal with her
Stay alert enough.
"Oh, that's such a pity." After hearing Sokov's answer, Sonia's face was full of disappointment: "I thought you, as a commander, should know something."
"I heard that the Kwantung Army of the Japanese pirates in the Far East has millions of people." Sokov said pretendingly: "If our army wants to fight them, I am afraid we will have to mobilize the same number or even more troops to be able to attack them.
Launch an attack, don’t you think?”
Sonia didn't expect that Sokov would ask herself this, and she couldn't help but panic: "Yes, to fight the Japanese pirates, we need to assemble millions of troops."
After Sokov and Sonia chatted for a few more words, they found that the other party's attitude towards him was becoming more and more indifferent. In the end, they simply stopped talking and just walked forward silently, as if they wanted to get to the destination as soon as possible and save Sokov.
Get rid of.
Sonia's abnormal behavior was noticed by Sokov. At this moment, he became more and more suspicious that there was something wrong with the female nurse in front of him who claimed to be a military hospital. Otherwise, why would she always ask him about some military matters in a circumstantial way?
What about the matter? He knew very well that the troop assembly was confidential. Even some people he knew well would not tell them casually as long as their rank was not high. What's more, this girl in front of him whom he had just met not long ago, who was she?
His identity is still questionable.
Sokov began to make plans in his mind. After sending Sonia to the hospital, he would go to the hospital director and political commissar to find out about Sonia's situation from them and see if what the other party told him was true to determine the other party's truth.
identity.
Unconsciously, Sonia stopped and said to Sokov: "Major Matevosyan, I'm here." She pointed to a military hospital across the road with her hand, and continued, "I
I work here, if you want to see me, you can come here to find me."
"Okay, Sonia." Since the other party took the initiative to invite him, Sokov would not refuse easily. He nodded and said: "How about this, I will pick you up from get off work in the evening, and then we will have dinner together. How about dinner?”
Regarding Sokov's proposal, Sonia hesitated for a long time and said with some hesitation: "Comrade Major, let's wait until the evening to discuss this matter. I don't know if the head nurse will arrange for me to work overtime today. If not, I will work with you."
You go have dinner."
