Struggle in Russia

Petukhov underestimated Shuvanov too much. This person's vigilance and defensiveness were much higher than that of ordinary people. It can be said that he did not believe in anyone and was highly suspicious of anyone. He would be more wary of those people he didn't trust, such as Petukhov.

Soon, his people discovered that Pugachev was missing, and the fun was immediately great. At noon, he found Petukhov and questioned him face to face.

"Colonel Petukhov, I want to know where Major Pugachev is?!"

Petukhov was naturally caught off guard, he never expected Shuvanov to come so quickly, so suddenly, and so directly.

In desperation, he could only pray for Pugachev, hoping that his nephew would be smarter, and on the other hand, he could only pretend to be confused.

"Is Major Pugachev missing? Guards! Go and find Major Pugachev!"

While pretending, he said with a smile: "Why is Major Pugachev missing, maybe he is going to the toilet or wandering around for a while!"

Shuvanov said with a straight face, "Impossible, my people have searched the toilets and surrounding farms, and there is no trace of Major Pugachev!"

Petukhov was shocked again, he still wanted to find an excuse to deal with it, who would have thought that the other party would be so careful and blocked all the loopholes before coming to settle accounts with him, how difficult it is! How insidious!

"Impossible!" While dealing with it, Petukhov was secretly worried, but he said, "I've issued repeated orders to strictly prohibit casual activities. This bastard must be hiding and drinking again!"

Shuvanov said with a cold face: "Colonel Petukhov, I remind you that it is best to find Major Pugachev as soon as possible, and it is best to pray that the major does not reveal our whereabouts. Our mission fell short this time, and what awaits him must be the strictest military law! Both the Duke of Aldorf and His Majesty are very concerned about this, and you know what the consequences will be!"

After warning Petukhov, he resolutely ordered: "Scatter everyone, expand the search area, and we must find Pugachev!"

This made Petukhov even more anxious, and he hurriedly said, "Then let's send my people out to search together!"

Who would have thought that Shuvanov would flatly refuse and say, "No need! If you lose another one or two of your people, I will have to work harder to find them! Your people will just stay in the farm and don't take a step without my permission." Don't leave!"

After finishing speaking, he didn't care what Petukhov's expression was,

He gave the order on his own, and he really treated Petukhov as air. What's even more exasperating is that he actually sent someone to guard Petukhov's people, as if he was guarding against thieves.

This naturally made Petukhov very angry, but he couldn't do anything about it for the time being. Whoever made the other party's background was too big, and it was indeed his side that made mistakes first, so he could only bear it.

"Brigade Commander, are we going to endure this?"

Petukhov clicked his tongue, and said helplessly, "Otherwise, what else can I do? Now I can only hope that Pugachev can be smarter!"

In fact, Petukhov also knew that Pugachev would be useless if he was smart or not. If he was smart, he would probably lose his skin. I can only hope that he can find Li Xiao and get in touch, so as to avoid being punished and failing to get things done.

Shuvanov sent people out to search. He was really not joking. He really sent all the people he could send out to search. He searched Maple Tree Villa, inside and out, and even searched The range has been expanded to three kilometers outside the villa.

"Where did this bastard hide?"

The more no one could be found and the wider the search area, the uglier Shuvanov's face became. At first he was only a little angry, thinking that Pugachev had just wandered off in an unorganized and undisciplined manner.

But the search range is so large, and there is still no trace, which means that the situation is completely different, okay? God knows what the other party has done, whether it will be exposed, and whether there will be problems.

A series of doubts kept circling in Shuvanov's mind. For a moment, he wondered if Pugachev had betrayed the country and turned to the enemy, and wanted to transfer immediately.

This restless mood lasted until five o'clock in the afternoon, and it came to an end when his outermost team found a drunk Pugachev in a wood.

"Drunk? Hiding in the woods and sleeping?!"

Shuvanov was so overwhelmed that he was about to jump in a hurry. Who would have thought that the other party would hide and drink to death? Nima, what kind of shit is this!

It's just that his vigilance was still very high, and he asked, "Are you sure you're drunk?"

"He was drunk. He drank at least five or six bottles of vodka. The smell of alcohol was so strong that he was snoring when we found him!"

Shuvanov was still worried, and asked, "Where is the person? Are you awake?"

"I can't wake up. I drank too much. It didn't help if I poured several buckets of cold water. God knows how much this bastard drank!"

"Bring people here!"

Shuvanov still refused to believe it completely, and he couldn't be relieved until he saw the trial for himself. At this time, Petukhov also rushed over: "Colonel, I heard that you found that bastard thing?"

Shuvanov glanced at Petukhov up and down, and then looked at his subordinates. Obviously, he was not satisfied with Petukhov's coming so quickly, and wanted to know whose mouth was so leaky!

"Yes, I just heard about it too, and I'm preparing to go there for interrogation!"

Petukhov immediately became upset. What do you mean you are going to interrogate? Anyway, he is Pugachev’s direct superior. Even if you want to interrogate, you have to get his consent, okay? It’s not just that you didn’t tell me what you meant. I mean, I'm not ready to let me watch!

Petukhov wasn't very good-tempered either. It wasn't because he was afraid that he didn't confront Shuvanov before. Since Shuvanov didn't show face, he wouldn't be polite either.

Immediately, he beat the snake with the stick and said: "Then let's go and see together, and see where this bastard died! I'm so mad!"

Petukhov said he was mad at me, but Shuvanov could tell that he didn't mean to be angry, but more to defend. He wasn't interested in arguing with Petukhov, not to mention that interrogation alone was the style of the third volume.

He immediately refused: "No need. The matter is very important. I am going to interrogate Major Pugachev alone. Colonel, you can wait here!"

He wanted to leave after speaking, but how could Petukhov agree, he immediately stepped forward and said: "What are you waiting for? How can I wait for such a big thing to happen! I have to see clearly, see What the hell is this little bastard doing!"
