"Why aren't you here? The general asked me to return immediately after the transaction."
Marklov paced back and forth anxiously at Kaifeng Airport. On the side were the pilot and eight crew members who were performing this mission.
The pilots and crew were not in a hurry. They were just here to carry out the order. As long as the specified time was reached, they would fly back regardless of whether the transaction was successful or not.
In other words, these pilots and aircraft are seconded and have extremely strict time regulations. And if it weren't for the sake of Marklov's boss, Marklov wouldn't even be able to mobilize the transport plane.
So Marklov was very anxious and thought: If this matter goes wrong, it will be impossible for the superior to trust him again in the future.
"Comrade Marklov, we have to return in half an hour. You should consider now whether to unload those weapons and equipment, or whether we should just pull them back."
At this moment, Papunov, the pilot of the transport plane, asked.
Because at this time, the weapons and equipment are still on the plane. And without seeing the Dragon Boat Festival, Marklov did not dare to unload the weapons and equipment easily. He did not even explain to the airport personnel what was on the plane.
After all, this is a war era, and arms are a very scarce commodity.
To put it bluntly, Marklov was afraid that the arms would be robbed, and even if they were robbed, he would not be able to find anyone.
Because let alone the Central Army and the Local Army, he couldn't tell them apart. Even if they were the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, how many did he know?
So once the arms were robbed, his eyes darkened and he could only squat in the corner and cry.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute. Otherwise our visit will be in vain. I'll treat you to vodka when we get back."
Marklov kept laughing, but Papnov didn't buy it, because if he couldn't go back on time, he would be in big trouble. Even if his head wasn't lost, his pilot's uniform would have to be stripped off.
But Marklov didn't want to offend him. After all, people who could lend out planes were more energetic.
So he lowered his voice and said: "Comrade Marklov, it's not that I don't want to help, it's because it will be very troublesome if the plane leaves the airport for a long time. We must go back at the specified time, otherwise I may be sent to a military court." "
Marklov nodded tightly and said: "Yes, yes, yes, I also know the seriousness of the matter. But we still have to wait a little longer. Look, there are still twenty minutes left, so it should be enough time."
Papnov said helplessly: "It's already this time, I don't think he will come. Should we fly back?"
"Wait, wait, wait,...hey, look, a car is coming."
Marklov was trying to persuade him, but at this moment, the airport gate was opened, and a military off-road vehicle sped over.
And the direction the car was traveling in was heading towards them.
Marklov was overjoyed, but just as he was about to greet him with a smile, his face suddenly darkened again. Because the Dragon Boat Festival came so slowly, he almost died of panic.
"Comrade Papnov, go and ask people to prepare to unload the weapons and equipment. But don't give those Chinese a good look. Huh! You made us wait for so long!"
Marklov lowered his voice and spoke to Papnov. Papnov instantly understood that Marklov was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he wanted to laugh just looking at it. But now that the real master is here, why doesn't Marklov take revenge?
Of course, none of this has anything to do with him, because he just follows orders and is fine.
Papunov asked people to leave, and at this time, the off-road vehicle stopped in front of Marklov.
It was Duanwu and Lao Abacus who got off the bus, but as for Song Zheyuan's bodyguard, Duanwu didn't bring him at all.
Because he only had one car and it couldn't accommodate so many people. What's more, he didn't want Song Zheyuan to know about the purchase of arms.
So the only people who got off the bus at this time were Duan Wu and Lao Abacus.
Duanwu laughed loudly and said: "Hahaha, I'm very sorry, I'm late."
"snort!"
Marklov snorted coldly. He was still sulking and didn't want to pay attention to Dragon Boat Festival at all.
But time was running out and he had to hurry. So he could only roll his eyes at Duanwu.
But at this moment, when his eyelids rolled up, he saw that Duan Wu's body was covered in blood, and there were many knife marks on his jacket.
Marklov said in surprise: "Comrade Duanwu, what's wrong with you?"
"Hahaha, it's okay, I encountered a little trouble."
Duanwu laughed dryly, but at this time Lao Baanpan said deliberately: "We were attacked by the Japs on the way here, and our group was seriously injured. But in order to arrive in time, our group even used anesthetics when suturing the wounds. No beating, no blood transfusion, just a simple bandage and he came here."
】
But at this time, why did Lao Abacus tell Marklov this?
Because when he got out of the car, he saw Marklov's old face stretched as long as Changbai Mountain. So he didn't complain and let Marklov know that their group came to trade with you with serious injuries.
At the same time, sure enough, Marklov's face not only improved, but he also said very worriedly: "Comrade Duanwu, I see your lips are white, which is a symptom of excessive blood loss. Why don't you send me a telegram? You There’s no need to rush here, I can unload my weapons and equipment and wait for you at the airport for a few days without any problem!”
But at this time, Duanwu apologized: "I didn't come as scheduled. This is my problem. On the contrary, I am very grateful to you, Lao Ma, for waiting for me here. In this way, don't leave after the transaction. Here I will be the host in Kaifeng and treat you to a drink."
Marklov waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, no, if nothing happens, I have to go back with the plane. Next time, next time I will have a drink with Comrade Duanwu."
"Comrade Marklov, can we unload the cargo?"
At this moment, Papnov stood at the rear door of the plane and shouted.
"Okay, okay."
Marklov responded twice in succession and then said to Duanwu: "Comrade Duanwu, let's take a look at the weapons. Let me tell you, they are all good things. There are some weapons that our Soviet army has not even installed!"
"oh?"
He was very interested in the Dragon Boat Festival, so he walked side by side with Marklov. Just as I walked, sweat started to flow from my forehead.
He had multiple stab wounds on his body, and especially the stab wounds on his chest were very deep. According to his current physical condition, he was not allowed to move at all, let alone leave. But Dragon Boat Festival kept talking and laughing with Marklov, and walked quickly with Marklov.
So it's obvious that Marklov is still impatient.
But walking quickly, the pain in Dragon Boat Festival's wounds became more and more unbearable, so after only a dozen steps, sweat started to appear on Dragon Boat Festival's forehead!
