Chapter Eighty-Five: Someone Comes

John's words made Donovan unable to sit still, although the biggest loss this time was not Donovan's fault, but it was due to the rescue of the man-eating shark team. So as soon as John had finished speaking, Donovan stood up and said, "I'll go with you, sir." ”

John saw Donovan stand up and gave him a very appreciative look. Although Donovan was injured, and from John's heart, he didn't want someone like Donovan to continue to take risks, but now was clearly not the time to think about these issues. Such people are needed at this moment to lead others.

As soon as Donovan finished speaking, Pete, who was beside him, stood up. "And me. I'll go too. ”

When Donovan saw Pete get up, he immediately looked very happy and stretched out his right hand to put his arm around Pete's shoulder, and laughed proudly and proudly.

"Good!" John nodded to Pete and Donovan in satisfaction, and beckoned to them to stand behind him. "Who else? This is the last time I ask you. Although there are only two people at the moment, it is a lot less than what I planned. But don't force yourself when you don't want to do this kind of thing. That command made things worse, so this is the last time I'm asking. ”

"Me!" Colin, who also survived, stood up at once, looked at Pete and Donovan and said, "I'm with them!" With that, he turned to look at the others: "What's wrong?" Have they all become sissies? ”

Colin's words caused the other three to stand up and follow Colin to John's side. John nodded at them and glanced around the rest of the people again, and after making sure that everyone was going on to join, he didn't say anything more, but looked at the non-combatants not far away and said, "Arrange the car, and send them out in a moment to Turkey." As he spoke, he looked at the people in front of him and said, "Go back and rest." You don't have to feel guilty, you did your best. You don't have to worry about any subsequent evaluations. This is just my temporary action, and if I have to evaluate, the worst one should be me. So," John shrugged his shoulders and continued, "so be it." We still have to prepare. With that, he led the six people to a large tent set up on the side.

There were a few fold-out beds in the tent, and the blankets and pillows on the beds were still neatly placed there, and it seemed that no one had slept on them today.

In the middle there is a table with some food and wine on it. John walked over to the table and looked at Donovan and said, "How's your arm?" I think you'd better take care of your arms. ”

Donovan looked at the food on the table and said, "It's true that my arms aren't very good. But now I'm more interested in those. ”

"If you're interested, let's do it." John looked at the others, "Everybody's doing it. This was meant for you. We've been busy for most of the day. It's almost noon now, but it's longer than a day for us. John said as he pulled out a couple of disposable plastic cups and poured a glass of wine for everyone. This is Armenian brandy, very famous, all taste. ”

Pete looked at the wine poured into the glass and then looked at Donovan, seeing that Donovan directly picked up the glass and took a sip, Pete still looked at the wine glass with some hesitation.

John looked at Pete and smiled, "What?" Worried about drinking too much? ”

"Yes..." Pete nodded, it wasn't just a mistake for him, it was a big deal. He had to be awake all the time, all the time, even when he was asleep. "Aren't we going to the rescue?"

"I'm going." John nodded, "But not now. We are people, not machines. We are hungry and tired now. What did you do? It's better to eat a full stomach, sleep and set off again. ”

Pete always felt a little bit like eating a severed head when he said this, but he was really hungry at the moment, and he was on the thief ship anyway, so it was useless to think too much. So he took a sip and then picked up the food on the table and ate it in a big gulp.

John saw Pete start to eat, took another sip of wine, and said, "Actually, someone has already passed." Your mission is to reconnoitre, and then to support and respond, which is equivalent to a fast response team. This means that if all goes well, you won't even be in a fight, and you won't even have to fire a shot. It's just that there are fewer people. ”

"Huh?" Donovan looked outside the tent when John said this, and said, "If I had said the same thing just now, I think there would be more people here." ”

John waved his hand, poured himself another glass of wine, and said, "It's different. Not having enough courage to do such a dangerous thing would not only harm him but also everyone. And I think the goal of the Russians this time is very clear, if they can't catch it, they will kill it. We've been through this before. So I think when we get to Abkhazia, we will face an equally difficult enemy. Everyone still needs to be ready to go into battle at any time. ”

"So what's going on there?" Colin asked, "Is it the same situation as Team 009?" ”

"Nope. It's not the same. The current situation is that they were scattered in the back of the attack. Now keep in touch with some of them. After fleeing, these people took refuge in a small town called Arte on the west side of Zugdidi. ”

"Zugdidi ... Pander to.. Alter? Donovan clearly had no idea about the two places. Not only him, but several others, including Colin and Pete, didn't know exactly where the place John was referring to.

Seeing the expressions of Pete and the others, John sighed and stood up and said, "It looks like I have to teach you a geography lesson." With that, he quickly walked to the door of the tent, shouted a few words to the people outside, and then walked back, and continued: "Zugdidi is a city in Georgia, and it seems that it is still the capital of a state. It is close to Abkhazia, from where it is not far west to the border with Abkhazia. And Arte is on this border, on the Abkhaz side to be exact. ”

As John spoke, a man walked in from outside the tent. This man was Joseph, who was in charge of distributing equipment to Pete when they first arrived here two days ago.

Joseph had a map in his hand, and behind him was another figure, a middle-aged Caucasian man wearing sunglasses and a white shirt, who had taken off his sunglasses and replaced them with a pair of glasses that were supposed to be short-sighted, looking like an office clerk.
