Arc of Gunfire

Chapter 450 The Night of Abavahan (Update 5/81)

The residence that Pavlov arranged for Wang Zhong was opposite the expeditionary force headquarters and next to a steam bath.

Yakov entered the room and looked puzzled: "General... do you live here?"

Wang Zhong: "What? I can't live here?"

"It's so far from your manor!" Yakov replied.

Wang Zhong: "The manor is my ancestral property. I personally have no requirements for where I live. In fact, when the war started last year, I could sleep soundly in the passenger seat of the truck."

Yakov's eyes widened: "Really?"

"Yes, not to mention that far away, during the attack and defense of Yeisk that just passed, I also slept in the warehouse that served as the headquarters with the staff of the headquarters. When I slept, I could still hear the beeps on the radio. What’s the sound?”

Yakov looked a little dazed: "Being able to fight and eat and sleep with soldiers, this sounds like the reincarnation of Suvorov."

Wang Zhong: "How else could I become the dean of the Suvorov Military Academy?"

"Oh yes, it's a pity that I had already graduated when you became the dean."

Wang Zhong: "Where did you spend the last year? Didn't you go to the battlefield?"

Yakov looked a little embarrassed: "I applied to go to the battlefield, but was not approved, so I have been working at the Yebao headquarters. Because my qualifications are too junior, I basically do tasks such as updating maps. They even Don’t let me go to the translation department! I know so many languages!”

Wang Zhong reassured: "Last year we had some problems in the upper echelons. His Majesty the Tsar was a puppet who was raised up after the civil war. It might be okay to engage in internal fighting, but not at all else.

"It's much better now."

Wang Zhong suddenly thought of his good friend Crown Prince Ivan who died for his country. If he had not died and became the tsar, he would have performed better than Olga.

After all, Olga is still learning, and General Turgenev, the leader of the neutral faction, teaches her various common sense every day.

Crown Prince Ivan must be much stronger than her.

Wang Zhong was thinking about it when he suddenly noticed that Yakov looked admiring and asked, "What's wrong?"

Yakov: "You are indeed the Shadow Prince. You have no scruples at all about speaking ill of the late Emperor."

Wang Zhong: "Shadow Prince? This is the first time I have heard this title. Do everyone in Yebao call me that?"

"Yes, I also call you Your Majesty."

Wang Zhong: "I'm already married."

"They said that the current His Majesty will yield to you, and they also said that the Rokossov family originally had royal blood. Is that true?"

Wang Zhong shook his head. He had checked the family tree, but there was really no such thing.

Just as Yakov was about to continue speaking, Neli came in: "Yakov, your room is ready, you can go and rest."

"Oh, okay. General, is there anything else you want me to do?"

Wang Zhong: "Wait a minute, come and chat with me, and have a midnight snack together. Neli, please prepare his share."

"Okay." Nellie bowed and left.

Yakov: "Your maid doesn't like me very much."

Wang Zhong: "You look a bit weak. She didn't like my last adjutant very much. She might have thought Vasily was unreliable. Maybe...she didn't like me too much before, after all, I was very unreliable at that time.

"But then I was blown up by a 380mm cannon, and then it became what it is now, and Nellie's relationship with me also got better."

Yakov frowned: "What hit you?"

Wang Zhong: "The main gun of the enemy battleship, when I was at the headquarters of the supreme commander in Roniezh, a 380 shell penetrated and killed everyone except me - huh?"

Wang Zhong remembered that not all of them were killed in the explosion, but one was still alive. It was just that he was now going to be the duchess's male favorite and enjoy the good life.

Damn, you are still eating soft food at this time. When you come back from the expedition, you will stuff it into the Turning Point to fill the line.

Yakov still didn't know why Wang Zhong stopped suddenly, and asked curiously: "What's wrong?"

"No, I remembered that there was a survivor. He escaped with me, and then immediately went to eat soft food. I need to take good care of him when I come back from the expedition. I think his injuries should be healed, and he should be like a Fighting like a man.”

There is an annoying character in "Quiet on the Don". He got a medal at the beginning of World War I, and then relied on bragging and playing tricks to get through until the end of the war.

Wang Zhong hates this guy very much.

Of course, Wang Zhong also just wanted to send the soft-boiled man to the front line, but Yakov obviously misunderstood and looked at Wang Zhong with an expression of awe.

Wang Zhong changed the topic: "You have been in Yebao last year. Have you never thought about marrying your girlfriend?"

Yakov shook his head: "Everything seemed very bad at that time. Neither of us had any intention of getting married. No one knew what would happen to Yeburg after it was occupied by Prosin. Some people said they would massacre the city. In this case... ...How to get married? I can’t sleep just thinking about it.”

Wang Zhong: "If it were me, I would say, 'Let the sound of Prossen's cannons be the salute of our wedding.' Don't you think this is very romantic? My wife was also pregnant at that time."

Yakov: "You are different from us. We don't have the courage and ambition like you. At that time, people in Yebao were really panicked, especially the day when Proson's cannon hit the palace, many people began to secretly make Proson's flag was embroidered, and then the inquisitor began to arrest people all over the street, shooting those who embroidered Proson's flag in the street.

"Then you won the battle and paraded so many prisoners. It was then that many people had some confidence in victory. You gave us courage."

Wang Zhong looked at Yakov. He could not see any flattery on the young man's face. He really thought so.

"Was the situation so dangerous at that time?" Wang Zhong said, "I only saw some descriptions in the report, but what I learned from books is shallow. No one around me would tell me this."

Yakov: "The people around you must have been influenced by you and felt that you would win. I was just a small staff officer who drew maps in the headquarters. My girlfriend was also studying in accounting school at that time and knew nothing.

"She joined the women's labor camp and dug trenches outside the city. Proson's planes came and killed many of her companions. Then a surrender faction came and shouted, saying that there was no hope to surrender.

"Later, when she told me this, I really felt..."

Yakov suddenly closed his mouth and frowned.

Wang Zhong: "I won't tell the judge. Or rather, I'll protect you, and the judge won't make things difficult for you."

Yakov: "Is that so."

After a short pause, he asked cautiously: "Did you think we would win from the beginning?"

"Yes." Wang Zhong nodded. After all, as a time traveler, he had seen the result on Earth.

Yakov looked even more respectful: "You are really amazing. Last year, I thought that if I had the chance, I would definitely work in your headquarters, but my transfer application was always rejected, and I thought I would never have the chance.

"I didn't expect that I could become your adjutant now. It's unimaginable."

Wang Zhong: "A person's destiny, in addition to relying on his own efforts--"

He was about to recite the famous saying when Nellie came in with a cart.

Nellie: "I went to the cooking team and got some leftovers to stew a pot, so I'll just eat it. In addition, I found that the cooking team has strange things. "

After that, she took out a plate of French fries.

That shape should be French fries.

Wang Zhong was just wondering, and remembered that there were people from the United Kingdom stationed here.

It seems that there is nothing strange about French fries?

Yakov picked up a French fry and stuffed it into his mouth out of curiosity.

"Well, why is it so soft? It doesn't taste good."

It must have been soft because it was left for a long time, Wang Zhong thought.

He didn't like to eat soft French fries either, so he picked up the empty plate, made himself a plate of stew, added some sour cream, and began to feast on it.

Yakov ate another French fry and continued to shake his head: "Well, this weird thing is not good, it feels like fried potatoes."

You guessed it, Yakov Davarishi!

Yakov no longer cared about the soft French fries, and also made a plate of stew.

Just after eating two bites, he said: "This stew is not as delicious as my wife's."

Wang Zhong glanced at Nellie and said quickly: "I think this is the most delicious stew! Maybe because I'm hungry-no, it's delicious even if I'm not hungry! It's really delicious."

He began to brag about the stew.

Yakov understood after seeing it, and nodded quickly: "Just now I... only tasted the top notes! Yes, the top notes! Now the bottom notes are here, and this stew is even more delicious."

What top notes and bottom notes, it's not perfume! Wang Zhong thought.

Nelly: "I didn't put perfume in it, where did the top notes and bottom notes come from?"

Wang Zhong: "Aftertaste! This is called aftertaste!"

"Yes, aftertaste!" Yakov agreed repeatedly.

Nelly shook her head: "What do you want to eat for supper tomorrow? Let's talk about it first."

Wang Zhong: "I love everything you cook! It's Yakov who doesn't like it! I'll eat it tomorrow."

Nelly stared at Wang Zhong for a few seconds and smiled slightly.

Wang Zhong: "Ah, you smiled."

Nelly: "It's because of the moonlight."

Really?

Wang Zhong decided not to think about it.

At this time Yakov said: "So that's it, the rumors are true! You really and the maid... Uh, sorry."

Wang Zhong: "Yakov, do you know that my adjutant must master a skill?"

Yakov: "What is it? Drawing? Or something else?"

Wang Zhong: "It's shoveling shit. Gregory!"

The senior sergeant opened the door and came in: "Here."

Wang Zhong pointed at Yakov: "Teach him how to shove shit tomorrow."

Gregory laughed: "Is it only those who are flattering that can become your adjutant? Okay, you should learn this skill tomorrow."

Nellie: "Learn it well. This way I don't have to clean the general's toilet."

So when Vasily is not shoveling shit, it's you, Nellie, who does it?

Suddenly I feel that Vasily has been doing it all the time!

(In the distant Yebao, Vasily sneezed countless times.)

Wang Zhong finished the food on the plate with a happy mood, burped with satisfaction, and then tiredness came up.

It seems that the first night in Abavahan will pass like this.
