Wang Bin came up from the cellar and happened to see Zou Chao and Yelena passing by talking and laughing. Wang Bin called Zou Chao several times, but Zou Chao didn't hear it. At a certain time, when a person's attention is all focused on
When you are focused on a certain person or thing, it is indeed possible to ignore the surrounding environment.
Watching Zou Chao and Yelena walk away, Wang Bin couldn't help but curse: What a couple.
But thinking of the Wolf King imprisoned in the cellar, Wang Bin couldn't care less about Zou Chao and quickly found Xu Rui.
"Captain." Zou Chao reported with a grimace, "That beast doesn't eat or drink, and he still bites people."
At this moment, Xu Rui had already changed the medicine for the macho man. He stood up and said, "Let's go and take a look."
At that moment, Xu Rui brought Leng Tiefeng, Wu Han and Wang Bin to the cellar, but Ulantoya did not follow. Instead, she stayed in the stable and continued to play with Red Rabbit.
Xu Rui hid the Wolf King in the cellar because he was worried about causing panic.
He also found an iron cage and put the Wolf King in the iron cage first.
Wang Bin opened the stone slab covering the cellar, and a low roar immediately came from underneath. It was the kind of bass that came from deep in the throat of a beast. It had strong penetrating power and sounded extremely scary. If it were in the wild,
Hearing such a low growl can scare the shit out of a grown man.
Xu Rui and the others will naturally not be scared.
Going down the ladder to the cellar, you can understand the entire environment below at a glance.
This cellar is used by the Kulun Hotel to store vegetables. It is a large space with scattered vegetables, melons and fruits scattered around. In addition to the faint smell of rotten vegetables, there is also an indescribable smell in the air. It can only smell like a wolf.
Only experienced hunters who have dealt with them can tell that this is the smell of wolves, and wolves also have smells.
Turning his head again, Xu Rui saw the iron cage placed in the corner of the cellar.
The wolf king was prostrate in the iron cage, his body lowered, his claws stretched forward, his two wolf ears raised high, and a pair of fierce and cold wolf eyes staring at Xu Rui and the three of them for a moment.
, there was a constant low hiss in his throat, and it seemed that he might break through the iron cage at any time and rush out to attack the three of them.
Next to the iron cage, an earthen pot was overturned. The rice inside was poured out and spread all over the floor. Not far away, there were two pieces of bloody mutton. However, the wolf king did not even squint his eyes.
.
Wang Bin said helplessly: "This beast is so arrogant. He refuses to eat even the mutton given to him."
"This is expected." Xu Rui said, "If it gives in so easily, it is not worthy of being the wolf king!"
As if he understood what Xu Rui was saying, the wolf king in the cage immediately turned his lips upward slightly, revealing two rows of cold fangs, which looked particularly ferocious.
"You are already a prisoner, how dare you bare your teeth at me?" Xu Rui smiled and said to Wang Bin, "Since this beast refuses to submit, let's starve it for ten and a half months first. Let's take a look at this beast.
How long can it last!"
Wang Bin said worriedly: "Captain, half a month is too long. What should I do if I starve to death?"
"Don't worry, you won't die of hunger." Xu Rui said, "Beasts like wolves have very strong endurance. An average wild wolf can starve for at least a week, not to mention that this beast is a wolf king."
The wolf king seemed to understand that Xu Rui was threatening it. Instead of giving in, he turned the upper lip of his sharp muzzle upwards further, revealing more fangs, and the roar from deep in his throat became deeper.
This beast seemed to want to declare to Xu Rui in this way: I will never give in.
Xu Rui said happily: "Okay, let's wait and see."
…
Almost at the same time, the conference table in the conference room on the first floor of the hotel had been cleared.
It was replaced by a simulated sand table that had just been moved from the Mongolian Army Headquarters. From here, we can see the arrogance of the Soviets when facing the Mongols. In fact, the Mongolian Army Headquarters is near the Kulun Hotel, but
Zhukov just didn't want to take these few more steps instead of asking the Mongolian army to move the heavy and huge simulated sand table with the sand.
After putting down the sand table, the Mongolian soldiers were driven away by Shaskih, and the remaining work was taken over by the officers and soldiers of the guard company.
Shaskih commanded the officers and soldiers of the guard company. While using the map to simulate the topography of the Soviet-Finnish border on the sand table, he said to the Soviet major general standing next to him: "I really don't know how arrogant this Chinese guy named Xu is."
Well, he is still stupid. He has never even been to Europe, yet he dares to deduce the Soviet-Finnish War with the General."
The Soviet Major General sneered and said: "This may be called the fearlessness of the ignorant."
"That may not be the case." A voice suddenly came in. When the two looked back, they saw that Zhukov had changed into casual clothes and strode in. Then he continued, "As far as I know, this Colonel Xu is a
An overseas Chinese who returned from Germany, during his stay in Germany, he served as a foreign partner at the Brandenburg Special Forces Training Camp, and even attended advanced courses at the Berlin Military Academy for a period of time."
Of course, this information was told to Zhukov by Cherev.
Cherev is a senior spy of the Cheka. It is not too difficult to obtain this information. However, this is the information that the Cheka can obtain. As for further information, for example, Xu Rui is training with the Brandenburg Special Forces.
It is difficult to verify how he performed in the battalion and how he performed at the Berlin Military Academy.
Because the Cheka lurking in Germany said that there is no Asian auditor like Xu Rui at the Berlin Military Academy, but there are many Japanese students. As for whether there is a foreigner like Xu Rui in the Brandenburg Special Forces Training Camp
As a sparring partner, there is no way to verify it, because their people cannot break into the German special forces.
There is only one explanation for this. Xu Rui used a false identity at the time.
Whether it was Cherev, Zhukov or the German Cheka spies, they never thought that Xu Rui was lying. This was not because they lacked common sense, but precisely because they were too particular about common sense, so they did not believe in Xu Rui's identity.
Doubtful, because Xu Rui's various performances on the Chinese battlefield are enough to prove that he has indeed systematically studied contemporary cutting-edge military theories and also received modern special operations training.
Because of this, both Chelev, Zhukov, and Stilwell are more willing to believe that Xu Rui used a false identity when he was in the Brandenburg Special Forces training camp and at the Berlin Military Academy.
This is why their intelligence department cannot verify this person.
"Is there such a thing?" the Soviet Major General was surprised.
Shaskih said: "Even if he had served as a foreign partner in the Brandenburg Special Forces training camp, and even if he had attended the Berlin Military Academy, what use would it be? Has he been to the Soviet Union? Has he been to Kale?
Has the Isthmus of Karelia been surveyed? Does he know how many lakes there are in the Isthmus of Karelia?”
Zhukov said: "Then do you know?"
"Gah, I..." Shaskih was immediately speechless.
Of course Shaskikh didn't know how many lakes there were in the Karelian Isthmus. When he was young, he took a train with his father to Finland and happened to pass by the Karelian Isthmus. He saw a large number of densely packed lakes along the way.
But as for how many lakes there are in total, how does he know? The book doesn’t tell.
Geography books of this era were not as detailed as those of later generations.
Zhukov snorted and said: "So, don't blindly underestimate others."
Shaskih stopped saying anything and silently led the soldiers to set up the sand table.
After being busy for almost a whole day, the sand table was finally set up. When Zhukov came to check and accept it, he found that the terrain of the Soviet-Finnish border had been basically simulated. The terrain of the Karelian Isthmus was simulated particularly carefully. Shasky
He even sent people to the Kulun River to pick up a lot of blue pebbles and embedded them in the sand table to simulate the lakes scattered on the isthmus.
After dinner, the war game officially began. Zhukov obviously valued this war game very much. He deliberately put on a general's uniform that was only worn at grand events. He looked particularly energetic. In contrast, Xu Rui's
The gray cloth military uniform is much more rustic, and the hat doesn't even have edges and corners.
If it had been someone else, he might have felt ashamed of himself. Even though he looked calm on the surface and felt inferior deep down, there was no doubt that Xu Rui had no inferiority complex at all, because he was unlike any other Chinese in this era.
Everyone is different, because he comes from another era, he comes from the 21st century when China has fully risen.
Xu Rui knows better than anyone else that as long as it develops according to the historical trajectory, China will definitely rise and become a superpower in the world. Therefore, when facing Westerners, he has no psychological fear at all. Therefore,
Even though he was wearing a shabby military uniform like a beggar, Xu Rui could hold his head high without fear.
Zhukov could clearly feel Xu Rui's self-confidence and self-esteem coming from his bones.
After giving Xu Rui a deep look, Zhukov said, "Colonel Xu, how about we start?"
"Okay." Xu Rui said with a smile, "It's up to you, I can start anytime, no problem."
Zhukov nodded and asked: "Would you like my adjutant to introduce you to the terrain of the Soviet-Finnish border first, and then introduce the general deployment of the Soviet army?" After a pause, Zhukov continued, "Of course, also
I can only give a general introduction, because I don’t know the detailed deployment situation, and even now, this is still top secret.”
Xu Rui nodded and said: "It is enough to describe the general deployment of the Soviet army. As for the terrain of the Soviet-Finnish border, such as the topography of the Karelian Isthmus, it is not necessary, because I have been there before, and I have no idea about the terrain there.
We have a certain understanding of the terrain, so we’d better save some time and get to the point as soon as possible.”
