Chapter Seventy-Five: Sniping
"Anatoly Yusupov, don't think I'll let you go if you take a hostage. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf you're not a coward, just let him go and we'll talk slowly. Manturov tried to get Yusupov to let go of Vasily with a provocative method, and then took the opportunity to subdue Yusupov.
But this trick did not have much effect, Yusupov still held on to Vasily, still aiming the muzzle of the pistol at Vasily's temple.
"Manturov, you have to promise me one condition before you let go of Vasily." By this time, Yusupov still did not back down in the slightest.
"On what terms?"
"Hand over Keiko Nakajima and let me take her to the Japanese. Otherwise......" Yusupov glanced at Vasily and said to Manturov in fluent Russian: "I'll kill him, and by the way, a few more Reds." It's worth it to exchange my life for a few lives! ”
Manturov, of course, could not agree to Yusupov's conditions, both to hand over Keiko Nakajima and to let Yusupov go, which was too cheap for him. If Yusupov returns to the Japanese-occupied zone, he is likely to leak a lot of information about the deployment of the Soviet army and the Soviet army's counterintelligence policy, which is not a good thing for the Soviet army.
Not only will the Japanese be able to deploy accordingly to the movement of Soviet troops, but they will also be prepared for Manturov's elaborate counterintelligence measures, and their White Russian lackeys will be able to infiltrate the Soviet barracks more easily and spy on more information.
However, it is imperative to avoid bloodshed. Manturov can only show Keiko Nakajima, of course, only to fix it. "Okay, do you want Keiko Nakajima?" Manturov gestured to the soldiers behind him and continued: "Here she is. ”
It was at this time that Keiko Nakajima was brought out.
"See? Is he the person you're looking for? Manturov shouted.
"That's right, it's her." Unable to avoid deception, Yusupov made another request: "Let her go and let her come by herself." Don't send anyone to follow! Don't play tricks! ”
Manturov untied Keiko Nakajima, pointed at Yusupov with his index finger (in Russian culture, it is rude to point at people), and then said to Keiko in fluent Chinese: "Miss Keiko, this traitor to the Red Army wants you to be his comfort woman." We have negotiated many times to no avail, and he will insist on his position to the death.
Forget about making such a request, but I didn't expect that in order to achieve his goal, he also kidnapped another soldier and asked me to hand you over before I would release him.
Now, you go up first, and when he releases him, our snipers will take action and rescue you and the hostages, understand? ”
Keiko Nakajima did not understand Russian, could not understand the conversation between the two Russians just now, and did not doubt what Manturov said.
She nodded in agreement. Although she was not willing to be a bait, as a captive, how dare she not agree to the demands made by the enemy? I had to bite the bullet and go forward.
Keiko Nakajima walked slowly forward, but Yusupov still refused to put down her pistol.
In Manturov's view, Yusupov was a first-class coward, a coward who only dared to take hostages and did not dare to face the enemy.
Yusupov did not dare to let go, if Vasily, the only hostage, took the opportunity to escape, his head would be fired by Soviet bullets and a pile of meat sauce.
"Miss Keiko, don't be nervous, I was sent by the Japanese Special High School to rescue you. You come slowly, and I will rescue you and bring you back to the Japanese-occupied area. Yusupov said to Keiko Nakajima, who was not very fluent in Chinese.
Keiko Nakajima was very surprised, but she didn't expect that at this time, someone actually sneaked into the Soviet barracks and risked her life to rescue her. "Really? Are you really going to take me back to Manchuria? ”
"Really, I'm from the Russian army, and I was sent by Commander Ueda. Miss Nakajima, come on, hurry up and come over, let's go together and get out of this hellish place. ”
Keiko Nakajima looked at the huge Soviet troops behind, and then looked at the lonely few White Russians in front, and felt that it was not a way to survive with them.
She walked up to Yusupov and said, "Go fast, it's too late." ”
Yusupov still held on to Vasily, fearing that Soviet snipers would take advantage of the opportunity to kill him.
Of course, Manturov would not tolerate Yusupov's success, and he shouted loudly at Yusupov: "Now that I have handed over Miss Nakajima, why haven't you released her?" ”
"Don't worry, I will let people go, as soon as I get out of your control zone, I will immediately let go of Vasily Vladimirlovich, a traitor."
At this time, a crucial scene appeared, Keiko Nakajima suddenly used both hands, with divine power and reflexes from nowhere, to quickly snatch the pistol from Yusupov's hand.
At this moment, Manturov suddenly picked up his bear-hunting, scoped AVS-36 semi-automatic rifle, aimed it at Yusupov's head, and pulled the trigger without hesitation, just as he had done when he was hunting bears outside Moscow.
"Bang!" With a bang, it's all over. The bullet pierced Yusupov's head with unerring accuracy and without deviation, putting an end to his life of criminal treason.
The next few White Russians saw that the boss was shot from a distance, so they had to raise their hands and surrender. The contradictions and grievances between these people and the Bolsheviks were not great, but they were just a group of petty-bourgeois elements who were propagandized by the White Bandit Army and followed Kolchak. After Kolchak's defeat, they came to Northeast China, where they were forced to work for the Japanese, without any intention of opposing the Soviet government.
For them, life is more important than everything, and what "Down with the Bolsheviks", what "Avenging Kolchak" is just a slogan for them, not at all what they really think in their hearts.
Manturov's shot was so beautiful that all the Reds in the audience cheered, and they couldn't help but be impressed by the nerd in front of them. In fact, just after the bear hunt, Manturov began to play with guns and became addicted, and went to practice guns whenever he had time. As I practiced, I developed a good set of marksmanship.
While people were cheering, Keiko Nakajima was stunned by the sudden shooting. At the time of the shooting, the distance between her and Yusupov was no more than two meters.
He witnessed Yusupov's headshot at Manturov up close, blood flying straight to her face, and he fainted with fright at the sudden and terrifying image.
And Vasily, who was closer to Yusupov and almost hit, was not only not intimidated, but his white, rough face showed a smile of satisfaction.
Seeing that the scene was under control, that the White Russians had surrendered, that Vasily had been released, and that Yusupov had been killed, Manturov finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He stepped forward, patted Vasily on the shoulder, and comforted: "Thank you, comrade. You did a great job today. ”
For the first time, Vasily was recognized by the military commissar, and he no longer had to live a hidden life in fear, and his heart felt much more relaxed. "It's just a small matter, I just did the right thing, it's not a big deal."
"Good, you can go now. It doesn't matter if you go back to Manchuria or your hometown in Russia, I won't hold you accountable for the crimes you once committed. ”
"No, Comrade Military Commissar, I want to stay and do something for the country. I owe the Motherland too much, and now Japan is going to invade Mongolia, intending to use the Haraha River region as a springboard for invading the Motherland. As a Russian, with Slavic blood, I should fight for the Motherland, and not be a lackey of the Japanese! ”
However, Manturov was not moved by these words, and he suspected that Vasily was trying to gain his trust by saying them so that they could do intelligence work.
But in any case, when people say such revolutionary words, they can't help but give a positive response. So he pretended to smile and praised: "Very good, then you can stay and dedicate yourself to the motherland." By the way, what about your family? Is it still on the northeast side of China? What will your family do if I find out that you have come to us? ”
"Comrade Military Commissar, please rest assured that my family members on the other side of Manchuria have died, and this is their retribution for betraying the motherland. Therefore, I want to contribute to the motherland and not make my father's mistakes again. ”
"Good!" Manturov put on a very satisfied expression and affirmed Vasily's revolutionary rhetoric. "We need people like you who are enthusiastic about fighting for the motherland! I hope your passion will not be extinguished. ”
"I'll show you my deeds."
