Vlas Vlasovich held up a monocular and carefully observed the village in front of him. He had observed this small village countless times. It could be said that every house and road in it was already familiar to him.
To be honest, he was tired of such observation. If Colonel Gavril Grigorievich hadn't forced him to observe carefully again, he really wouldn't have wanted to come.
After taking a few more random glances, Fras was really bored. He handed the telescope to the subordinate next to him and asked, "Is Daniel back?"
"Report to the battalion commander that Daniel is back!"
Flas was slightly displeased. Captain Daniel was the one responsible for putting on makeup and entering the village for reconnaissance, but this guy's work attitude was really beyond praise. Except for the first reconnaissance operation, he was a little attentive, and then he just wandered around casually.
Just one lap and it was perfunctory.
Although Flas was also very resistant to this unfortunate task given by his superiors, he always remembered his responsibilities, whether it was to take the emperor's salary and share the emperor's worries, or to use other people's money to eliminate disasters. He still took the requirements of his superiors seriously.
Yes, but this Captain Daniel was an old friend of Colonel Gavril Grigorievich because of his uncle. He always did things carelessly and carelessly, and almost went wrong several times.
Flas didn't like that the people below him were so careless, and he didn't like that Daniel always didn't take his orders seriously. Especially this mission was very important. It seemed to be an order from the top of the navy.
Allow success and never allow failure.
And he knew the seriousness of such a task. If he failed, his life would be at risk! So he couldn't help it!
"Call Captain Daniel here!" Fras ordered fiercely.
It took Danil Vasilyevich a full quarter of an hour to appear in front of Vlas, and he showed a very disdainful and completely indifferent attitude, not taking Vlas seriously at all.
The reason is also very simple. He thinks that his uncle has a good relationship with Colonel Gavril Grigorievich and has a deep friendship, while Vras is just a rough guy. If he is not good at fighting and killing, he is still so bad.
Otherwise, the position of battalion commander would belong to him, not to the rash man in front of him.
Moreover, Daniel also believed that with the passage of time, it would be a matter of time for him to be promoted. Last month, he gave Colonel Gavril Grigorievich a generous gift to let the colonel
With a smile on his face, he will soon be on the same level as Fras and may even be a head above him. So why should he listen to the mercy of a future subordinate.
Naturally, Vlass saw Daniel's arrogance and domineering, and couldn't help but feel even more disgusted. If this was not the right time to deal with this guy, he would probably kill him with one shot.
So he just asked darkly: "Captain Daniel, the mission is completed?"
Daniel neither stood at attention nor saluted, and without even looking at Fras, he replied casually: "It's done!"
Fras remained calm and asked so gloomily: "What is the situation in the village? How many people are there and what are they doing? Tell me clearly the location of the enemy sentry!"
How could Daniel know this? He has been to the village several times these days, always passing by as if shopping. The only time he paid attention was to look at the older girls and younger wives. He never paid attention to what the enemy looked like!
But this guy was also too careless, and he still looked nonchalant, and he just lied and said: "There are probably hundreds of people in the village! There are about a hundred enemies, and they are not the same as before. They are idle near the camp, and the sentries are still there.
Look!"
Fras ignored him, but turned to his adjutant and ordered: "Go ahead and call Lieutenant Bogdan over!"
Daniel didn't realize what was about to happen, but asked impatiently: "Major, if nothing happens, I'll leave!"
After that, the guy raised his legs and was about to leave, but Fras ordered him rudely: "Something's wrong! Stand at attention on your side!"
This scolding startled Daniel, and he subconsciously stopped obediently, but he immediately became angry and secretly said: [Why should I listen to you!] He contradicted him: "Major, what do you mean?"
Fras glared at him and said fiercely: "What do you mean by asking you to carry out the order? I have an opinion!"
Although Daniel was furious, he didn't dare to continue to contradict him, because after all, Fras was his superior now. Although he could usually violate the rules, he really didn't dare to make a mistake when the other party really used his status as a factor. Not only because of the other party.
He has a high military rank, and he knows that this guy is not a good person. If he offends him, the consequences will be bad. Although he doesn't believe that the other party dares to do anything to him, the son of a rich man cannot sit down in court! Safety first!
After a while, Lieutenant Bogdan was called over, and Frass repeated the question again very rudely. The guy was immediately confused.
Because of Daniel's relationship, they only performed the mission in a pretense manner. They didn't know how many villagers and enemies there were in the village, what they were doing and the specific location of the sentry. After giving a few general remarks based on their impressions,
He didn't dare to say it and couldn't say it out loud.
At this time, Captain Daniel also knew Flas's intention, and wanted to remind Bogdan. As soon as he opened his mouth, Flas glared at him fiercely, and with one look, he didn't dare to interrupt.
"Captain Daniel, is this how you perform your mission? Each person has his own story, and none of the data matches up. Do you think this is just playing house?"
This scolding made Daniel feel very embarrassed, but he didn't care at all because he was thick-skinned. He looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water. He probably thought that Fras couldn't do anything to him.
Yes, Vlas really can't do anything to him, because this guy is a relative of Colonel Gavril Grigorievich. The colonel who loves money will give face to his old friend even if he doesn't.
Gold coins and face will not do anything to Daniel.
But being unable to teach Daniel a lesson does not mean that Fras cannot teach Bogdan a lesson. After a scolding, Fras ordered: "Drag Lieutenant Bogdan down and give him twenty lashes as a warning!!"
Well, Bogdan was so frightened that he peed. The Russian military's military whips are not for human beings. Usually ten lashes can make you miserable, but twenty lashes will not only avoid flesh wounds!
Suddenly he was so frightened that he peed and said in horror: "Colonel, please have mercy! Colonel, please have mercy! Captain, please help me! Please help me!"
But no matter how much he begged for mercy and struggled, it was in vain. A group of wolf-like soldiers held him down without any explanation and took off his shirt with three strokes. They were preparing for immediate execution!
Now Daniel was also anxious and yelled at Vlas: "Vlas Vlasovich, what do you mean, why do you beat my people!"
