Chapter XXVIII: Achraf and Semerov
The Russian immediately picked up the picture and looked at it, nodded his head, and then came to Vashili and said, "Your companion helped me point out the man, now you have to help me verify it." With that, he put the picture back in front of Washley, "Find the leader." ”
Wasri seemed to be impressed by Eric, and after a brief glance, he pointed out Eric's photo, "This is the man." ”
"Good. Very good. The Russian picked up the picture and looked at it again, "Are they still in the city?" That is your field hospital? ”
"No... It's gone. "They left before we left. ”
"Where did you go?" The Russian then asked.
"Like... It seemed to be going to the west, and I remember saying goodbye to our company commander before leaving, saying that it seemed to be going west. ”
When the man heard Vashley's words, he immediately looked back at the other captive, Karaze, and said, "Mr. Karazar, do you have anything to say?" ”
"It's going west. He also asked about the west, but no one knew. Because we didn't have any people from the west side of the city. Said the captive named Karaze.
The Russian nodded and looked at the picture in his hand, and then said, "Have you seen any other Americans or mercenaries besides this team?" ”
"No... I've only seen this team. Karadze said immediately.
"Okay." The Russian put away the photo and turned his head to look at the other two Georgians who had been silent: "These two people have not spoken, are they dumb?" Saying that, the man shook his head with a look of regret, "I can't imagine that Georgians have to serve in the military even if they are disabled." After speaking, he looked at the other Russians beside him: "These two disabled people are useless. Take them out. ”
Although the man spoke in Russian, the Georgians could understand it, so the two men who had not spoken immediately struggled after the man finished speaking. But before they could make a move, four Russians came around and dragged the two Georgians, who had not spoken, out, and then two gunshots rang out.
Vasri and Kaladze, who were still kneeling on the ground, naturally knew what was happening, and their bodies shook uncontrollably with fear, and even Vasri cried.
"Alright, alright." The Russian, who had been in charge of the questioning, said softly: "My words count. Since you have answered my question, you deserve preferential treatment. After saying that, he looked at the other people, "Take them away." Give them the treatment they deserve, water and food, and don't mistreat them. Then he said to Kaladze and Vasri: "If you think of anything, remember to tell me, if you cooperate with us, maybe you will be able to go home soon." ”
After the captives had been taken out, the man in charge of the interrogation turned to look at the Russian who had been standing on the sidelines: "Ashraf, it seems that we are in the wrong place." ”
"Nope. I think we just missed out. The previous information was still accurate. It is right to say that this team is operating in the south-eastern region. "It's called Ashraf humanity.
"Okay. Let's take a look at the map. The Russian who had just been in charge of culture walked to the emergency light, while Ashraf took out a map from his body, unfolded it, and looked to the west side of Tskhinvali.
"It's 。。。。。 here" The person in charge of the interrogation nodded on the west side and said, "Apparently they are planning to leave Tskhinvali from here. We don't seem to have a lot of people here. There were only small forces and Ossetians. ”
"But the terrain here is complicated, and you can't get back to Georgia quickly from here, so you have to go around a big circle." Ashraf pointed to the map, "That's why the whole attack plan doesn't focus on this place. ”
"That's not the point right now. We've got to find them. Do you think they're out of town by now? The Russian in charge of the interrogation asked.
After thinking about it, Ashraf said, "It's not very likely. Because it was not too early for them to move to the west side. Into the mountains after sunset? And didn't the two captives just now say that they still had the wounded with them? Entering a place that you are completely unfamiliar with and that may be infested with hostile personnel at any time? I grew up in the mountains, and believe me, there's zero chance they'll do that. ”
"Makes sense." The person in charge of the interrogation nodded, then stood up and said, "But we can't be careless. We still have to act now. You immediately take people to the mountains on the western side of Tskhinvali to find out the situation there overnight and search for places where you can get in and out of Tskhinvali. There are Ossetians armed there, and they will help us. If they really didn't leave, then the time to leave was likely to be tomorrow, no. It should be said that it is after dawn today. As he spoke, he sighed and said, "And I have to rush to Abkhazia in the west overnight, where I also have to set up." ”
"Understood!" Ashraf immediately put away the map, walked out of the farmhouse and took the Russians who had just been taken out of Tskhinvali and quickly got into the car and disappeared into the darkness.
After watching Ashraf leave with the people, the man who had been in charge of the interrogation took out a phone and pressed a number. Perhaps because it was too late, the other party answered the phone after it rang several times, and after the other party connected, the man standing in the dark said: "Ivan, it's me, Semolov... ”
Pete: Naturally, they would not have imagined that such a group of Russians was already coming towards them. He slept intermittently for about five hours that night, and Donovan woke him up at half-past three in the morning. And when he wakes up, Jeff and Eric are ready. There were also four Georgians, including the second lieutenant named Loria.
"It's time to go, master." Donovan said as he straightened out his tactical vest after waking Pete up.
Pete stood up and stretched, then quickly put on his gear. He looked at Eric, who was still carrying his bag, and said, "Mr. Eric, don't you take a gun?" Or do you have a gun in that bag? ”
Hearing Pete mention his bag, Eric subconsciously touched his bag and smiled, "I'm not very good with weapons." So forget it, I believe I don't need to use a gun with you here. ”
Pete smiled and said nothing, and after each of them had eaten something, they headed west of the city under Eric's leadership.
