Hear Yakov. Joseph Vic. The name Zhugashvili, not only Chen Dao, but also Captain Bierman could not remain calm, and then stood up, the eyes of all the Germans in the room were focused on him, Zhugashvili and his comrade-in-arms Sergei had a look of surprise on their faces, and they didn't know why these Germans in front of them had such a big reaction.

After Chen Dao and Yakov looked at each other for a few seconds, the frenzy in their eyes gradually calmed down, and they asked, "Tell me your rank and position." ”

"Commander of the third company of the 14th Howitzer Regiment of the 14th Tank Division." Dzhugashvili said.

Chen Dao drew a big question mark in his heart, according to the information he obtained from interrogating the prisoners, Stalin's son should be the captain of the armored corps. Dzhugashvili claimed to be the commander of an artillery company.

Is your own information wrong? Or is this Dzhugashvili in front of him just an impostor with the same name and surname?

As if guessing Chen Dao's thoughts, Captain Dzhugashvili said: "Mr. Lieutenant General, I don't think you would jump up from the sofa for an ordinary name, I know what you guys are thinking. My father is Stalin, you can take me and ask Hitler for credit. ”

Happiness came so suddenly that Chen Dao and the others didn't react for a while, until Captain Zhugashvili said: "Mr. Lieutenant General, is it a tradition of the German Army to let your subordinates put down their guns and put their guns against the heads of prisoners?" ”

Chen Dao waved his hand for the soldier to put down his gun, and then asked, "Sergeant Gustman, do you think what he said is true or false?" ”

Sergeant Gustmann stared at Dzhugashvili for a while, and then said with difficulty: "He spoke in a calm and decisive tone, which I think should be true." ”

"What do you think? Captain Bierman? Chen Dao asked.

"I think we can trust him." Captain Bierman said.

"I also believe that the name he said is true, take his comrades and the couple out. I'm going to have a good talk with our Captain Dzhugashvili, oh no, he certainly hasn't had breakfast either, I'm going to invite him to breakfast. Chen Dao said.

Seeing that the Germans were escorting Sergei and Kaspersky out of the house, Captain Dzhugashvili hurriedly asked Major Lorenz: "Where are you going to take them?" ”

After hearing Major Lorenz's translation, Chen Dao said, "You don't have to be nervous. The Kasperskys will return to their home, and your comrade-in-arms Sergei will be sent to the medic for treatment and then in a prisoner-of-war camp, where you will soon be reunited. ”

Captain Dzhugashvili said: "You will send me to a prisoner of war camp, not kill me?" ”

Chen Dao said in surprise: "The German Army does not have the habit of shooting prisoners of war at will, and this will not change just because you are Stalin's son." ”

Captain Dzhugashvili continued: "If you want to make a fuss about me, make me surrender, or let me cooperate with you in doing something harmful to the interests of the Soviet Union." It's best to dismiss it now, I'm not going to give in. ”

Chen Dao didn't answer, just smiled and shook his head.

I don't know why, when Sergeant Gustmann saw Chen Dao's smile, he always felt that behind Chen Dao's smile was all treachery and calculation.

Delusion, this must be my delusion, His Excellency the Doge will surely use justice to influence the stubborn "son of Stalin" and put him on the side of Germany. Sergeant Gustmann thought silently.

Twenty minutes later, Chen Dao and Captain Dzhugashvili walked into the dining room specially prepared for them. The tables in the restaurant are already full of food.

During this time, Chen Dao had some hot water prepared for Captain Dzhugashvili to wash his hair and face, and Chen Dao also generously lent him his own spare razor, let him shave his beard, and change his clothes back to his own captain's uniform.

When seated at the dining table. Captain Dzhugashvili has a new look.

He combed his big back similar to Stalin's, showed a broad forehead, and his eyes were bright, if not for the Soviet uniform on his body, but in terms of temperament and appearance. Chen Dao would mistake him for a German-officer, apparently this "son of Stalin" was once well educated.

"It's a time of war, and the diet is a little rudimentary, so please don't mind." Chen Dao said politely.

"It's okay." Captain Dzhugashvili said.

The two chatted while eating, basically in the mode of Chen Dao's questioning and Zhugashvili's answer.

After the meal, Captain Zhugashvili's heart became less and less vigilant, but full of curiosity and the urge to ask questions.

Because of the meal, Chen Dao asked personal questions such as how old you are this year, whether you are married, and what your wife does, but he did not have any of the expected questions about spying on military secrets.

When Chen Dao continued to ask him how many children he had in the family, whether they were boys or girls, and how old he was this year, Captain Zhugashvili finally couldn't hold back the impulse in his heart and asked: "If you want to eliminate my vigilance in this way, and then extract military secrets from my mouth, I advise you to dispel your mind as soon as possible, and you don't want to get any information from me." ”

Chen Dao's reaction was once again beyond his expectations, Chen Dao's face was full of laughter and tears, and he didn't feel angry at all because of his rudeness.

"Relax, Comrade Captain, don't always be so nervous, I don't mean anything else, I just want to make friends with you and work together for the future peace and cooperation between the Soviet Union and Germany."

Captain Zhugashvili showed a stunned expression, and Chen Dao was very complacent when he saw it.

You're surprised by my answer, aren't you? If you're a general, I don't mind using a little bit of violence to get some information out of you, but unfortunately you're not a general, you're just a captain. So I'm "

Captain Dzhugashvili interrupted Chen Dao's words and said hurriedly: "If you want me to come forward and persuade my father to surrender, this is also impossible. ”

Chen Dao covered his forehead in pain and let out a long sigh.

"Comrade Captain, can you please be less naïve, or think that I am as naïve as you. If you make a public statement or write a letter to persuade your father to negotiate peace with Germany, I think he will be angry and have a military tribunal sentence you to death in absentia for treason. You don't have to doubt that this world is in. I consider myself the person who knows him best besides your father, though I haven't met him a few times. ”

"What exactly do you want to do? I won't trust you, we're not going to be friends. ”

"That maybe. Well, in order to show you my sincerity, I decided to be honest. When I learned from the mouths of some captives that you were in the encirclement, I immediately devised a very vicious plan. Well, very vicious. I'm going to find someone who looks and height like you to play you, and then make some very vicious statements in your name, such as that your father was a tyrant who did not hesitate to launch a purge to bloodied the Soviet Red Army in order to strengthen his position. Or call on all those who aspire to free themselves from tyrant rule in the Soviet Union to unite and stand on the side of Germany and overthrow your father's dark rule over the Soviet Union. ”

Dzhugashvili pointed at Chen Dao's face, his fingers trembling. The facial features on his face are almost distorted.

"You, you, this"

Chen Dao stared at Zhu Gashvili calmly and said, "What do you want to say?" Am I too vicious? Cunning? Or is it shady? It doesn't make any sense for you to say this, because the victor is not to blame. So, don't have any other thoughts, you will be sent to the rear tonight, and your comrade-in-arms Sergei. Don't try to run away on the way back, because if you do, the soldiers who escort you will not hesitate to shoot you. You also don't have suicidal thoughts, anyway. I need you to live to see the end of the war, if you die before the end of the war. I will conceal your death and carry out my malevolent plan. ”

"You devil, you're going to hell." Dzhugashvili said.

"What about going to hell? Even if I go to hell, I will take my legion to kill Satan and become the ruler of all the devils in hell, and then lead them to conquer heaven. In a word. If you don't want me to carry out that evil plan, you must live well, even if you don't think about yourself, think about your wife and children, they will definitely want you to return alive to be with them. ”

Djugashvili slowly lowered his arm pointing at Chen Dao. His nose was constantly spewing heavily, and the conversation just now seemed to drain his whole body.

Chen Dao let out a low laugh and stretched out his finger to point Zhu Gashvili in the air.

"I really didn't guess wrong, you have suicidal thoughts in your heart, and I hope my words can dispel your suicidal thoughts."

"Well, I'll admit, I had that in mind. It's just that you're telling me this just to keep me from committing suicide? ”

"Of course not, my ultimate goal is to make friends with you, I have just said it, and the premise of making friends with you is that you are still alive."

"Well, as long as you don't carry out that vicious plan of yours, I won't kill myself, as for making friends? We'll talk about that later. ”

Chen Dao snapped his fingers in a dashing manner.

"Very well, when the war is over, you will be glad you have chosen today. Of course, if you can decide to make friends with me, you will not only return home, but also return home with the title of Hero of the Soviet Union, to be admired by future generations. ”

"Don't give me this empty check, I don't trust you, I'm not going to make friends with you." Dzhugashvili said.

"Believe it or not, what you say doesn't count, you will definitely accept my kindness." Chen Dao said.

"Your weakness is that you're too confident, and if no one has reminded you before, I wish I was the first."

"I'm twelve percent confident that you'll be good friends with me, because I'm using a scheming." Chen Dao said with a smile.

"Yangmou? What is it? Dzhugashvili first heard the word "yangmou" and did not understand the meaning of the word at all.

"Yang Mou means that you know that what is in front of you is a trap I have set, but you still jump in with your eyes open, why is this happening? Because you don't have a choice. ”

Ten minutes later, Captain Dzhugashvili and his comrades were escorted into a truck and then escorted by a platoon to a field airfield fifty kilometers away.

Summoning Major Lorenz, Chen Dao asked, "Have all the telegrams been sent?" ”

"Both telegrams were sent, and Major Bach in Warsaw said that he would arrange everything and that they would be accommodated as soon as Captain Dzhugashvili arrived, and the High Command replied that it would immediately broadcast as originally planned."

"Very well, let's wait for Minsk to be occupied." Chen Dao said.

While Chen Dao was waiting for the news of the fall of Minsk in the village of Marina, General Zhukov was also staring at the city of Minsk on the map in the city of Mogilev in the east and in the headquarters of the Western Front, listening to the report of the staff officers.

"Last night, a telegram came from the headquarters of the Second Army, and they are still holding out, but absolutely not today. They only had two infantry divisions and some of the defeated troops they had gathered, but they had to face the siege of three Panzer armies, and although these three Panzer armies had only invested some of their forces to attack them, they could not afford it. ”

Zhukov looked up at the staff officer and asked in a deep voice: "You said three Panzer armies, could it be that the 1st Panzer Army of the Germans has already reached outside Minsk?" ”

"Yes, Comrade Commander, we have just heard on the radio the battle report from the Germans, the vanguard of the 1st Panzer Army has rushed outside Minsk, and that the legendary Polish Governor-General has also come to inspect the battlefield as a special envoy of the German High Command."

"Where that guy appears, where is the main battlefield, at most two days, it will be us who will bear the strong pressure of the three armored armies, and immediately report this news to the Supreme Command."

As soon as the staff officer went out, Zhukov suddenly remembered something, and he asked the chief of staff: "Isn't there any news from Yakov yet?" ”

"No, none of the personnel of the 14th Tank Division who broke through saw him."

"Keep searching until the day when the encirclement doesn't exist." Zhukov said.

The moment he turned his head to look at the map, Zhukov made an inaudible sound from his mouth.

"May he have sacrificed."

When Zhukov was frantically searching for Captain Dzhugashvili, he did not know that the person he was looking for had already appeared in a villa complex in Warsaw.

Dzhugashvili and Sergei looked at the luxurious decoration of the villa as they followed Major Bach into the living room of the villa.

Walking into the living room, Major Bach said to a woman sitting on the sofa in the living room: "Madam, your neighbor is here. ”

The woman stood up and walked up to Dzhugashvili, stretched out her right hand, and said: "Hello, Mr. Dzhugashvili, I am Mrs. Brusillo, I live in Villa No. 3 to the east of you, and from this day on we will be neighbors. ”

Looking at Mrs. Brusilov, who had maroon hair and an aristocratic air and was clearly Eastern European-looking, Captain Dzhugashvili hesitated for a few seconds before taking her hand.

"Madam, what is your relationship with General Brusilov?"

"You're talking about the former chief of cavalry of the Soviet Red Army, Alexei . Cavalry Admiral Brusilov? He is my husband's father. (To be continued.) )
