Although both Sokov and Belgin kept silent about the news of Grisa's marriage, the news soon spread within the infantry brigade. Both officers and soldiers in the infantry brigade were originally all single.
, learned that Grisa was very lucky and picked up a beautiful wife while walking on the street. This incident made everyone envious.
In the next two days, the number of requests for leave from officers above the platoon increased sharply, but they were all rejected mercilessly by Belkin. He said with a hint of anger: "Comrade Brigadier, believe it or not, if I agree,
They ask for leave, and when they come back, they will proudly report to me that they are married."
"Comrade Political Commissar, you did the right thing." Sokov agreed with Belkin's approach: "If we let it go, the officers' personal problems would be solved, but in the next battle, they
Do you still have the heart to command troops to fight?"
As soon as Sokov finished expressing his position, Belkin suddenly said unexpectedly: "Comrade Brigadier, I think you should choose a suitable time and go to the city with Asya to find a marriage registration office to register your marriage."
"How can this be done?" Regarding Belkin's proposal, Sokov waved his hands and said: "We have just refused vacations for all commanders to prevent them from going to the city to find a young girl to marry. But once
In the blink of an eye, as their brigade commander, I took my beloved woman to get married. How could I convince the public by doing this?"
"It's okay, comrade brigade commander. Your situation is different." Belkin said with a smile: "You are the brigade commander of the infantry brigade. You are getting married. I guess your superiors are happy to see it happen."
"Why?" Sokov asked in confusion when he heard what Belkin said.
But Belkin avoided talking about Sokov's question and kept urging: "Okay, Comrade Brigadier, hurry up and pack it up. I have prepared the car for you. I will wait for you."
As soon as Asiya comes over, you should set off immediately and go to the city to register the marriage."
When Sokov saw that Belkin had arranged everything, he couldn't help but murmured in his heart: Belkin had been partnering with him for a long time, but he had never done such a thing on his own before. Could it be that he had never done anything like this on his own before?
Is it the superior's intention to marry Asiya?
Thinking of this, Sokov did not argue with Belkin anymore, but nodded and said: "Okay, Comrade Political Commissar, then I will do what you want and register the marriage with Asya later.
"
After Asiya received Belkin's notice, she thought that either Sokov or Belkin was injured, so she hurried over. When she saw that both of them were intact, she couldn't help but wonder.
Question: "Brigadier Commander, Political Commissar, I wonder if you asked me to come here. What's the matter?"
Belkin did not speak, but waved in the distance, and soon a car drove to the tent door. Belkin personally stepped forward to open the car door, and said to Asiya: "Asiya, please
Get in the car. There is an important task at the brigade headquarters today, and you need to cooperate with the brigade commander to complete it."
"Important mission?" Hearing what Belkin said, Asiya raised her eyebrows and asked curiously: "Comrade Political Commissar, can I ask what the mission is?"
"Asia, please get in the car first. Comrade Brigade Commander will tell you the specific tasks on the way." Belkin waited for Asya to get in the car, then urged Sokov: "Comrade Brigade Commander, we don't have time."
It's early, please get in the car. I hope you can complete your mission as soon as possible and return smoothly."
After the car started, Asiya asked Sokov curiously: "Misha, what is the mission? The political commissar refuses to tell, so you have to tell me, right?"
Even though Sokov was now the brigade commander, it was still a bit difficult for him to explain this mission to Asiya. He hesitated for a long time, and finally said with some embarrassment: "Get married."
"Getting married?!" Asiya asked curiously: "Misha, who wants to get married?"
Sokov turned to look at Asiya, pointed at her, then pointed at himself, and said, "Who else could it be? Of course it's you and me."
"What, are we getting married?" After hearing the news, Asiya's face turned red: "Misha, stop joking. Tell me, what kind of important task is it?"
"We are really getting married." Seeing that Asiya didn't believe him, Sokov said helplessly: "Think about it, when the two of us got in the car, was the political commissar too attentive?"
Asiya carefully recalled what Belkin had done, and felt that what Sokov said made some sense, but when it came to marriage, it seemed a bit too fanciful. She said softly "Yeah"
, just holding the medical kit in his arms without saying a word.
Seeing Asiya not speaking, Sokov also felt bored, so he turned to look out the window, thinking to himself: "When we get to the marriage registration office later, if Asiya resolutely refuses to get married, what will happen to him then?"
Woolen cloth?"
The car stopped at the door of the marriage registration office. After Asiya saw the sign on the wall clearly, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated. He thought to himself: Oh my God, it turns out that Misha really wants to marry me.
Thought he was joking.
Seeing Asiya staring at the buildings outside the car in a daze, Sokov did not dare to disturb her and waited quietly for her to make the final decision. Sokov did not speak, so the driver naturally did not dare to speak even more and could only sit and sit.
From his seat, he used the corner of his eye to look at Sokov and Asiya sitting in the back row from time to time.
After an unknown amount of time, Sokov saw that Asiya still hadn't moved. He knew that if he kept waiting like this, there might be no results. He coughed lightly, and then asked tentatively: "Asiya, are you in the car?"
We’ve been sitting for long enough, let’s get off first.”
Asiya nodded shyly, opened the door and got out of the car first. Sokov opened the door on the other side and got out of the car, walked around from the back of the car to Asiya, held her hand, and walked toward her without hesitation.
Go to the marriage registration office.
When the two entered the door, the staff had just completed the formalities for another young couple. Seeing Sokov and Asiya walking in, he smiled and asked tentatively: "Are these Lieutenant Colonel Sokov and Asiya?
Sergeant Ya?”
"Yes, I am Lieutenant Colonel Sokov." Hearing the staff ask, Sokov quickly identified himself. But when he looked at Asiya sideways, he thought to himself: Asiya
How come I didn't know when I became a sergeant?
As soon as Sokov finished speaking, Asiya continued with a slightly trembling voice: "I am Asiya."
"Hello!" the staff member said politely: "I received a call from my superior, saying that you are coming here to register for marriage today, and asked me to be responsible for the reception!" After greeting the two people to sit down, he continued, "Although I
They have to receive a lot of soldiers, but both sides are soldiers, so this is the first time I have encountered them."
He took out the blank marriage certificate he had prepared and put it on the table, looked at the two of them and said, "Please show your documents."
After Sokov handed over their military IDs, the staff took a look at them and asked with some surprise: "Lieutenant Colonel Sokov, why is the rank of major on your ID?"
When Sokov heard this question, he smiled faintly at the other party, and then said: "Actually, my rank of lieutenant colonel was just obtained not long ago."
Since he had received instructions from his superiors in advance, the staff did not care about these details. After he quickly filled out the marriage certificate, he stood up, pushed the certificate in front of the two of them, and said with a smile: "Please, please."
Sign your name at the signature office, and the marriage certificate will be officially effective."
A few minutes later, Asiya walked out of the marriage registration office side by side with Sokov holding two marriage certificates. She had not yet woken up from the shock. She murmured: "Misha, this is all...
Is it true? Are we really married?"
"That's right, Asiya." Sokov nodded vigorously and said to Asiya: "You have our marriage certificates in your hands. If you still can't believe it, you can read it again.
"
Just as the two were walking towards the jeep parked not far away, talking and laughing, three policemen suddenly blocked their way. Sokov's eyes quickly glanced at their collar badges and found that it was a
There were a lieutenant in his thirties, an elderly police sergeant and a childish-looking policeman. He stopped and asked coldly: "Comrade policeman, what's the matter?"
The three policemen surrounded Sokov in a fan shape, and the lieutenant leading the team said in a very unfriendly tone: "Comrade lieutenant colonel, please hand over your sidearm."
Sokov frowned and asked, "Why?"
"We are performing a mission and we hope you will cooperate." The police lieutenant pulled out his pistol, pointed at Sokov and said, "If you do not cooperate, you will be responsible for all the consequences."
If the police hadn't drawn their guns, Sokov might have cooperated with them to figure out the problem. Now that he saw the other party's gun pointed at him, Sokov immediately became angry. He took a step forward with his left foot and suddenly blocked it with his right hand.
He opened the opponent's hand and held the gun, pressed the opponent's elbow with his left hand and pushed down hard. At the same time, his right hand changed to push. The police lieutenant did not expect that Sokov would actually use his grappling hand on him, and he was immediately suppressed.
Kneeling down on one knee, the gun in his hand was also handed over by Sokov.
Seeing Sokov, with lightning speed, he killed the police lieutenant who was holding the gun. The other two policemen couldn't help but were shocked. They tried to draw their guns to stop Sokov, but they didn't wait for the police officer to pull out the gun.
When Asiya came out, she kept hitting him on the forehead with the medicine box in her hand, causing him to stagger back a few steps.
Although the elderly police sergeant drew his gun very quickly, he was faster, and Sokov was even faster. Before he could raise the gun, the pistol in Sokov's hand was already pointed at his forehead.
When the driver in the car saw Sokov being attacked, he quickly jumped out of the car and rushed over with a submachine gun. By the time he arrived, Sokov had already subdued three policemen. "Who are you?
?" Sokov asked coldly.
The police lieutenant who knelt on one knee replied: "We are from the 17th Precinct."
"You are police officers from the 17th Precinct. Why don't you go on patrol?" Sokov asked, "But you want to disarm me?"
The police lieutenant got up from the ground with difficulty and said to Sokov: "I'm sorry, Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, we are also acting under orders. Please and this female soldier come with us."
Sokov threw the pistol back to the police lieutenant and said to the driver holding the submachine gun: "Comrade driver, we have to go to the 51st Precinct for investigation. You go back first."
"Comrade Brigadier," the driver asked nervously after hearing what Sokov said, "will you be in any danger if you follow them to the police station?"
"Don't worry, there won't be any danger." Sokov said, gave the driver a heavy push on the shoulder, and urged: "Hurry up, don't keep Comrade Political Commissar waiting." As he said,
He also took advantage of the fact that the three policemen were not paying attention and gave the driver a quick wink.
After the driver drove away, Sokov said to the police lieutenant: "Where is the branch? Take us there quickly."
Three policemen brought Sokov and Asiya to the police station and took them to the door of a detention room. They nodded and bowed and said: "Comrade Lieutenant Colonel, please wait here for a moment. I will come right away."
Go and report to Comrade Director."
Sokov and Asiya sat in a detention room with walls on three sides and only one iron gate, quietly waiting for the arrival of the director. Perhaps it was Sokov's recent show of force that shocked the police lieutenant, although he
The two were put into the detention room, but the door was only ajar and not locked at all. If Sokov and Asiya wished, they could leave freely even without greeting them.
"Misha," although the police did not make things difficult for her, Asiya felt a little frightened in her heart while staying in this detention room: "Tell me, why did they arrest us here?"
"Maybe it's a misunderstanding." Sokov didn't know what the police's purpose was, but in order not to worry Asiya, he comforted her and said: "We will be released after the misunderstanding is clarified.
."
The two of them waited for a long time, but did not see the police lieutenant or the branch director coming. However, the little policeman who was bruised and bruised by Asiya came. He came to the two of them and said expressionlessly: "Please
Give me your ID."
Sokov wanted to see what kind of medicine they were selling in their gourds, so he handed the two people's military IDs to the policeman. After the policeman took the IDs, he just said dryly: "Wait here.
Here." Then, he took their military ID cards and left.
Watching the little policeman leave, Asiya felt increasingly uneasy. She asked nervously: "Misha, what do you think they did with our military ID cards?"
Sokov's heart was full of questions at this moment. Why did the police arrest him and Asiya? Is there really any misunderstanding? To Asiya's question, he casually replied: "Maybe it's to verify our
