Svoboda and his company hit the road, first by train to Donetsk, which was a relatively safe journey. At least Donetsk and Luhansk are under the control of the coalition forces.

Of course, it's just relatively safe. Bolshevik partisans were active everywhere along the railway, especially after the unexpected fall of Luhansk, and the activity of the Red Army partisans became more and more frequent.

However, frequent activity did not mean that the threat was great, and the Red Army guerrillas played more of a harassing role, such as suddenly shooting at a train or ambushing a patrol along the railroad, and more often than not, they fired a shot and left.

Although this kind of harassment war does not achieve much success, it is impossible to destroy the train, it is not possible to destroy the railway, and it is even difficult to kill people. Anyway, Svoboda had never heard of too many people being killed by this kind of cold gun, at most a few unlucky people were unfortunately injured by stray bullets, and they didn't even need to go to the doctor.

Of course, it is useless to go to the doctor, the White Army lacks not only munitions, but also medicines, and the military doctor has a big headache for influenza for a while, and there is no way at all. In Svoboda's opinion, there is no way to even catch a cold, let alone a gunshot wound.

"Damn it, the train is stopping again!" Konstantin slammed the table hard, which showed how angry he was.

Nikolai, on the other hand, was relatively calm and asked, "What's going on again?" ”

Svoboda knew that the Bolshevik partisans must have come out to harass them again. Generally, when this happens, the driver will stop immediately and let the white army on board the car go down to find out. He was not willing to move forward until he confirmed that there was no trace of the guerrillas ahead.

It seems stupid to do so. It's a waste of time. But it can't be helped. The reason is that there was a lesson, and at first the train drivers of the White Army did not care much about this cold gun, and even accelerated forward, hoping to get rid of the guerrillas.

But soon something went wrong, and these damned guerrillas were playing tricks on the driveway, deliberately pulling the lane to another route. As a result, the speeding train immediately became tragic, crashing headlong into another train, and the driver hung up on the spot. Even the railway line was interrupted for two days. From then on, the drivers became nervous, and as soon as they heard the gunfire of the guerrillas, they immediately stopped until the White Army in the car confirmed that the lane in front of them was safe.

After hearing the reason, Konstantin became even more angry and accused: "Are you just so indifferent and let these guerrillas do whatever they want, you should allocate troops to eliminate them." These dog mongrels must be killed! ”

Svoboda had been keeping an eye on the target he was trying to protect from the moment he got into the car, and Nikolai didn't say much. Or that he is not willing to speak at all, and no matter what he sees, he is indifferent; This Konstantin, on the other hand, likes to express his opinion on what he sees and hears along the way. Well, to be exact, complain about everything you see. For example, after getting in the car, he was very dissatisfied with the lack of a sleeper, and if Nikolai hadn't ordered him to get in the car, he would have complained all the time.

Overall, Svoboda didn't have a good impression of this guy who blames the earth for having no gravity when he eats, complains about the air, and goes to the toilet. If it weren't for the order from above, he really wouldn't want to protect this bastard.

However, because the combination of Nikolai and Konstantin is too weird, he is more and more curious about the identities of these two and the purpose of going to Sevastopol.

When the train started again, Svoboda began to focus on this Konstantin, because he knew that he wanted to find out what information he wanted from a very tight-mouthed guy like Nikolai, but this little white-faced Konstantin who liked to complain had hope.

"Look at what, look!"

However, what made Svoboda very depressed was that this Konstantin was completely artillery, just a little bit. He just looked at the thing casually, and he exploded, as if he had grown so much more expensive.

Svoboda was not a good-natured man, as a Czech who was forced to go to war, forced to leave his homeland, and forced to help the Russians rebel, his chest was already full of anger, and he had long wanted to find a way to vent.

Moreover, he felt that as a foreign friend who helped the Russians, he should be treated with the least respect, and Konstantin, whether it was his eyes or his foul mouth, was undoubtedly quite far from respect. Therefore, instead of turning his head, Svoboda began to look at Konstantin even more nakedly, and directly expressed his contempt and provocation.

Suddenly, Konstantin was furious, jumped up violently, and roared angrily: "Czech bastard, warn you once after the worst, and look again, Young Master Ben will gouge out your eyeballs!" ”

Konstantin was not the first to scold the Svoboda mongrel, as the Czechs were a minority enslaved by the Austro-Hungarian Empire and were oppressed for quite a long time. Being insulted as a mongrel is already light, and being beaten and beaten is commonplace.

Konstantin's insults evoked memories of Svoboda's bad feelings, and when he was still in his hometown, the nobles and lords also used this kind of look and tone to dictate to them. Back then, he didn't dare to resist, and he didn't have the ability to resist, but now, Svoboda felt that he was different.

He lunged forward and punched Konstantin so hard that he fell off his seat one by one. It should be said that the expression on the face of this second goods at that time was wonderful, with anger, doubt, and confusion, as if he didn't believe that he had been beaten.

But this time he couldn't let Svoboda relieve his hatred, he then kicked again, kicking the thing and humming his little friend, if it wasn't for Nikolai standing up quickly, Svoboda would have wanted to beat him twice more - Nima, it turned out that it was so cool to hit the nobleman's little white face!

At that moment, a strange thought arose in Svoboda, and he somewhat understood why the Bolsheviks were going to revolutionize the nobles, to strip them of everything they had, to knock them out of the sky to the mortal world, and then to trample on their once proud heads, which was a wonderful feeling!

Svoboda licked his lips, he really wanted to be refreshed again, those two hits just now were really not enjoyable. But Nikolai had already glared at him viciously: "Mr. Svoboda. Be mindful of your behavior. You're here to protect us! If you continue to be presumptuous. I'll have to give you feedback to your superiors! ”

Svoboda also knew that he seemed to be a little excited, probably because of the after-effects of the previous period of idleness, and he was really fed up with this aggrieved life. However, this does not mean that he has completely lost his mind, he is well aware that his actions have actually crossed the line, and if Nikolai and Konstantin really make small reports, he is afraid that he will be severely punished. The army is not a charity, as a machine of violence, for those who disobey orders. will be subject to the most severe sanctions.

Svoboda stopped, he retreated to his original position, and Nikolai just glared at him again, without too much movement, and even he prevented Konstantin from retaliating.

"If you want to ruin our mission, you keep making trouble! Be patient, and don't mess with me anymore! ”

Konstantin's chest heaved rapidly, showing how dissatisfied he was, and if it wasn't for Nikolai's resistance, he would have pounced on Svoboda like a vicious dog. Of course. Svoboda was not at all afraid, for him a little white face like Konstantin. You can flip three or five at will.

After this short and intense fight, the atmosphere in the carriage was even worse, and most of the Czech soldiers looked at Konstantin with displeasure, and they were as disgusted with the grumbling bastard as Svoboda. As for Nikolai, this guy seemed to be back to his previous state, with a cold face, and no emotion in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

It should be said that after this moment, Svoboda's feelings for the two VIPs to be protected have completely deteriorated, and he not only hates Konstantin, but also dislikes Nikolai for restraint, and even worse.

You may wonder, is Svoboda having a convulsion, Nikolai has not offended him at all, he has been a peacemaker, and he also stood up to persuade him at the critical moment, it seems that he is a good person!

And that's just the surface! Svoboda believed that the so-called restraint and tolerance were disguised by Nikolai. When he looked at Nikolai just now, it was obvious to him that in this guy's eyes, he saw the same emotion as Constantine - contempt, contempt from the heart!

There are many such people, Svoboda, and among the nobles and the so-called nobles, there is a part of them who are particularly good at disguising themselves. In normal times, they look like dogs, but under this mask, they are just like wolves!

Even such people are more terrifying than those guys who expose their evil nature, the latter can also be careful, while the former is a two-sided and three-knife honey-belly sword, and every time you are the most defenseless, you will be stabbed by them fiercely!

Therefore, Svoboda immediately strengthened his vigilance against this Nikolai, and sure enough, when he arrived in Donetsk, Nikolai and Konstantin communicated in private, completely exposing his evil nature!

"Why didn't you give that Czech bastard a little color! Are you just going to watch these dog mongrels do their bidding? Konstantin asked viciously.

To this, Nikolai snorted contemptuously: "What do you know! The situation is completely different now! It's not in Ufa! We are surrounded by such mud legs, offended them, who will protect us next to Sevastopol? Without their protection, we can say that it is impossible to move an inch! Give me patience! ”

Konstantin said angrily: "Bear with me, how long will I endure!" ”

Nikolai sneered: "Endure until we complete the mission, as long as we arrive safely in Sevastopol, as long as the mission is completed." Those dog mongrels are all meat on the chopping board, and you can clean him up as you want! ”

As soon as he heard this, Konstantin showed a satisfied expression, licked his lips, and said: "I'm going to cut that bastard into eight big pieces, and I'm going to chop him up and feed him to the dogs!" ”

Svoboda's face became very ugly, and he knew that his previous fears were completely justified, and sure enough, this Nikolai was even worse and more insidious, and according to this, when they arrived safely in Sevastopol, it would probably be time for him Svoboda to see God.

This discovery made Svoboda restless, he was not the kind of person who let the flesh of the man, he had managed to survive until now, and he didn't want to lose his life for no reason. But for the time being, he couldn't think of a way out of danger, and he had considered it as a first move, but his brothers might not necessarily follow him. And it did. That would be tantamount to betraying the Czech Legion. Will he still have a place in Russia at that time?

Not to mention. Svoboda is not a completely selfish person, how can he be impulsive and bad at his own time, how can he affect his brothers? And, according to what he now knows, this Nikolai and Konstantin must have had a particularly important mission. If they succeed in completing their mission, I am afraid they will be able to change the situation in Russia.

As a Czech, Svoboda dreamed of achieving national independence as soon as possible, and now. This kind of opportunity seems to have come, how can he destroy the overall situation because of personal honor and disgrace?

After thinking about it, Svoboda felt that there was only one way, to abscond alone before arriving in Sevastopol, so that the overall situation would be taken into account without affecting the brothers, and it seemed that this was the best way.

After making his decision, Svoboda began to secretly prepare, and it was not easy to escape alone in a foreign land. In particular, the situation in Russia is still very chaotic, and a person on the road alone almost means nine deaths.

But that's the end of the story. Svoboda couldn't care so much anymore and began to secretly store food and money, which were necessary to escape. To tell the truth, Svoboda was very confused about where he was going to flee, it was impossible to defect to the Bolsheviks, and it was probably a dead end to cross the border to return to his hometown, as if he had no way to survive wherever he fled, and he could only escape one step at a time.

After leaving Donetsk, the group continued on their way, and after some twists and turns, they arrived safely in Zaporizhzhia, a small city close to the Dnieper River, where they would continue south, passing Melitopol and Simferopol to Sevastopol.

According to Svoboda's plan, he would begin his escape in Melitopol to see if he could escape to the Romanian kingdom via Nikolaev and Odessa. However, to Svoboda's surprise, things turned out completely unexpectedly, Nikolai and Konstantin did not go directly to Sevastopol, as they thought, and before arriving in Melitopol, they made a turn in Bogdanovka and made a detour to Nikolaevka.

Truth be told, Svoboda and his little friends were stunned, could this be the legendary wish? He was about to flee to Odessa, and Nikolai and Konstantin led him in that direction, which really saved him a lot of effort.

Of course, in the same way, Svoboda also raised new concerns, could it be that the real destination of these two men was not Sevastopol? If Sevastopol was not their destination, then all his previous plans would have to be rewritten. Because Nikolai and Constantine could pick him up in any of the next cities at any time, which is not good news!

Svoboda was nervous, and Nikolai and Konstantin were no better, but they were not worried for the same reasons, both of them were worried about going deep into Bolshevik-controlled territory, and they were both worried about revealing their identities.

To be honest, Nikolai and Konstantin were very uncomfortable with the Czechs who were guarding their safety. Although they had asked Titerikhs to pick Czechs who knew Russian or were born and raised in Russia as their escorts, even if they could speak Russian, they were not like the Bolshevik Red Army!

Before entering Nikolaevka, Nikolai deliberately summoned the Czechs and reminded them to be vigilant: "We are now on the territory of the Bolsheviks, gentlemen, every next step of our actions may be risky, I must warn you, be vigilant!" And it's better to behave like the army of the Bolsheviks a little! ”

To be honest, such a warning really doesn't make any sense, because the Czechs don't know what the Red Army should look like, and most of them have never seen the Red Army, so it's undoubtedly too difficult for them to pass off as targets they've never seen before!

Konstantin regretted it: "We should have looked for the Russians to protect the security before, at least they have seen the style of the Bolsheviks, these Czechs, hey......"

Nikolai, however, disagreed: "You take it for granted, you know better than me what the virtues of those White Army are, and it is even more impossible for them to pass off as the Red Army, and their loyalty and reliability are very worrisome." We can't take any chances! ”

The arguments between the two of them were in Svoboda's eyes, and he felt too worried, and according to his understanding along the way, the Red Army had just been established, and it was itself a mixed bag. How much special temperament can such a hastily formed army have? To put it mildly, everyone wears the same uniform, uses the same weapons, and if you don't shout slogans, it's really not easy to tell the difference.

Even, after entering Nikolaevka, Svoboda saw the Red Army even more unbearable than he imagined, almost a rabble. And such a rabble, which is everywhere in Russia, is almost indistinguishable from the White Army.

Anyway, Svoboda was not worried about being exposed at all, and he had also encountered interrogations along the way, but after Nikolai and Konstantin, who led the team, showed their documents, they passed smoothly, and even these people didn't look at them more.

To be honest, Svoboda was curious about the magic of Nikolai and Constantine's papers, for it was obvious to him that all the officers and men of the Red Army who had examined them showed awe.

Of course, Svoboda was only a little curious, and when he entered Nikolaevka, he no longer had the heart to care about Nikolai and Konstantin, he was very worried that danger was about to come, and he had to prepare to escape! (To be continued......)
