After Rokossovsky finished laughing, Victor asked tentatively: "Comrade Marshal, I wonder if Assia will go with me, or I will pick her up after I arrive in Moscow."

"The two of you must be going together." Rokossovsky said unexpectedly: "I have sent someone to pick up Asia in advance, and I will live in a nearby hotel. I will send someone to see you off later. Go see her."

  Knowing that Asiya has come here, Sokov felt at ease, at least he didn't have to go back to the field hospital to pick her up. He then asked: "Comrade Marshal, when shall we go to Moscow?"

"Antonov originally said that he would leave today, but I am worried that the delay on the road will be too long. When you arrive in Moscow by plane, it will be dark." Rokossovsky said: "I drove to the suburbs in the middle of the night. I’m afraid it’s not safe to go in the forest, so I asked him to send a plane to pick you up tomorrow morning.”

Rokossovsky called a staff officer and told him: "Comrade staff, you are responsible for sending General Sokov to the nearby hotel and letting him meet his wife." But in Sokov Before leaving, Rokossovsky asked behind, "Misha, have you arranged all the work in the army?"

"It's all arranged." Sokov nodded and gave the other party an affirmative answer: "Before I left, I handed over the work to Chief of Staff Sidolin. You also know that for a long time, the headquarters He is in charge of all the work, and I will hand over the work to him, and there will be absolutely no mistakes."

Hearing what Sokov said, Rokossovsky nodded slightly, "Now that the war is over, the workload of the headquarters is negligible compared to before, let alone a responsible chief of staff like Sidolin , Even if you just find a staff officer, I believe he can handle the daily affairs of the headquarters." At this point, he waved at Sokov and urged, "Hurry up and go to the hotel, I think Assia should Wait in a hurry."

  Sokov, led by the staff officer, came to a nearby hotel.

After entering the hotel, the staff officer wanted to take Victor directly to the room where Assia was, but Sokov waved his hand and refused: "Thank you for your kindness, Comrade Staff. Please give the number of the room where Assia is. Tell me, and I'll go find her myself."

   Seeing that Sokov didn't want to accompany him, the staff officer didn't force it. After telling the room number where Asiya lived, he saluted Sokov, then turned and left.

  Sokov walked towards the room where Asiya lived, and after a long distance, he found that the door was not open. He walked over slowly with light steps, wanting to surprise Asiya.

  He came to the door of the room and saw Asiya sitting in front of a table by the window with her back to the door, whispering something in her mouth. Seeing this, Sokov was full of curiosity, and walked forward slowly, wanting to hear what Asiya was reading.

  When he was four or five steps away from Asiya, he suddenly saw Asiya's right hand raised back, as if throwing something. Sokov raised his hand to catch it, and when he looked down, it turned out to be a pencil, which puzzled him: What did Assia throw the pencil for?

   Just when he was about to speak, he suddenly found that Assia, who was sitting at the table with her back facing him, was shaking like chaff, as if she had seen something frightening. He hurried forward two steps, put a hand on Asiya's shoulder, and wanted to ask her what happened.

   Unexpectedly, as soon as his hand was on Assia's shoulder, Assia screamed, and then rolled directly from the chair to the ground. Assia, who fell to the ground, curled up with her head in her hands, screaming non-stop, as if frightened by something frightening.

"Assia, Assia." Sokov quickly squatted beside Assia, hugged her vigorously, leaned close to her ear and asked loudly, "Assia, I'm Misha, hurry up and tell me Me, what happened?"

   After screaming several times, Asiya stopped screaming and stared at Sokov with confused eyes, as if she was looking at an unfamiliar person. After a while, she recognized that the person holding her was her husband Sokov, she exclaimed and buried her head in Sokov's arms.

"What's going on here?" At this time, an officer and a waiter appeared at the door, saw Sokov squatting and Assia in his arms, and asked cautiously: "Comrade General, where are you?" What happened?"

   "It's okay, it's okay." Sokov waved his hand at the other party, and said with some embarrassment: "My wife seems to have been frightened, but there is nothing serious, you go out first."

The officer standing at the door was just a small lieutenant. Hearing what Sokov said, he couldn't ask any further questions, so he could only politely say: "Comrade General, I am the military representative on this floor. If you need anything, just come to the duty room and find me."

"Okay, Comrade Lieutenant, if there is anything, I will go to you." In order to find out the reason for Assia's screaming, Sokov desperately wanted to send the officer and the waiter away: "When you leave, Please help me close the door."

After the officer and the waiter closed the door and left, Sokov picked up Asiya, put her on the bed beside her, and moved a chair to sit next to her. Then he asked: "Asiya Ya, can you tell me what happened just now?"

  Hearing Sokov's question, Assia couldn't help but blushed, and said a little embarrassedly: "Misha, it's actually a trick, and you might laugh at me if you tell it."

   "Little trick?" Sokov asked puzzled, "What little trick can scare you like this?"

"It's like this." Asiya explained to Sokov: "When I treated a soldier some time ago, he told me that someone in his family used to be a priest and knew that there was a way to test his Are there any ghosts around?"

  Sokov was extremely speechless, not to mention whether there are ghosts in this world, even if there are ghosts, you, a descendant of a pastor, can know how to find ghosts? He chuckled, and then asked back, "Assia, did he teach you some spiritism?"

   "Spiritualism?" When Asiya heard the word from Sokov, her face was full of confusion: "What do you mean?"

"It's just some magic sticks, through some kind of spell, summon the soul of the dead to themselves, and then use the identity of the dead to talk to the relatives of the dead." After briefly explaining the meaning of spiritism, Sokov continued Asked: "Asiya, you haven't told me what happened just now?"

"The warrior told me." Assia explained to Sokov, "Say a spell he knows, and then throw a pencil behind you. If you hear the sound of the pencil falling, it proves that your side There are no ghosts. If you cannot hear the sound of a pencil falling to the ground, it means that there is a ghost behind you..."

Sokov couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Asiya, do you know why you can't hear the sound of the pencil falling to the ground after you throw the pencil backward? That's because when you threw the pencil, I happened to come to you Behind me, I caught the pencil you threw."

   As he spoke, Sokov leaned over to pick up the pencil he threw aside when he was helping Asiya, handed it to Asiya and asked, "Look carefully, is it the pencil you threw?"

  Asiya only glanced at the pencil in Sokov's hand, then nodded and said, "That's right, this is the pencil I threw."

After figuring out the reason why there was no sound of the pencil falling to the ground, Asiya said a little embarrassedly: "I didn't hear the sound of the pencil falling to the ground. I was terrified in my heart. Fortunately, you put your hand on my shoulder again." Come on, are you trying to scare me to death?"

At this point, Sokov finally understood the whole story, he laughed dryly, and explained: "After I received the pencil, I saw you trembling suddenly, and thought you saw something horrible , I just wanted to ask you, so I put my hand on your shoulder instinctively, I didn't expect to frighten you, I'm really sorry."

"Forget it, this is the end of this matter, don't bring it up again." Assia felt more and more embarrassed when she thought of the absurd things she had done. In order to ease the atmosphere in the room, she tentatively asked: "Misha, Roxo Fusky sent someone to get here early this morning, and didn't say anything. Do you know what's going on?"

"Yes, Assia, of course I know." Sukov remembered that he was going to the Far East to participate in the war, and he hadn't mentioned it to Assia. Since he has the opportunity today, he would tell her by the way: "The supreme commander The Ministry has just issued an order to let you and me go to a sanatorium on the outskirts of Moscow to recuperate for a while."

   "What, go to a sanatorium on the outskirts of Moscow?" Assia asked in confusion after hearing this, "Why did the Supreme Command suddenly issue such an order?"

"There are many reasons." Sokov said cautiously: "I proposed to Marshal Zhukov and Marshal Rokossovsky some time ago, hoping that they can say hello to the Supreme Command and transfer my troops to In the Far East, we will have a contest with the Kwantung Army entrenched there."

"Misha, for us, the moment the Germans surrendered, this **** war was over." Assia said dissatisfiedly, "Why did you go to the remote Far East to compete with the Kanto? The army will continue to fight?"

"Asiya, you don't understand, as long as the Japanese pirates are not completely defeated, this war is not really over." Sokov looked at Asiya and said, "Only when the Japanese pirates are completely defeated can we have a real war." live in peace."

  After hearing what Sokov said, Asiya stopped talking. She knew that once the other party made a decision, no matter what she said, she could not change the other party's mind. Instead of arguing with him about this kind of thing, it's better to keep silent and see what he will say next.

"Assia," Seeing Assia's silence, Sokov was indeed a little flustered, but he still tried to calmly say: "You know, I have been wounded many times in the wars over the past few years." , perhaps inevitably left some hidden wounds. I am afraid that the Supreme Command arranged for me to recuperate in the outskirts of Moscow this time, hoping to use this time to let me take good care of my body. A healthy body commands troops to fight."

   "What about me?" Asiya waited for Sokov to finish speaking, and then asked slowly, "Should I go to the Far East with you, or stay in Moscow and wait for you?"

   "I don't know about this." Sokov said with a wry smile: "This time the superior is planning to transfer to the Far East, and there is no 48th Army where I am."

  Hearing that there was no Sokov's 48th Army among the troops that were about to be transferred to the Far East, Assia couldn't help feeling secretly happy. She said that if the troops didn't adjust their defenses, then Sokov, a poor commander, wouldn't be able to go to the Far East. But what Sokov said next made her heart completely cold: "However, I have already proposed to the Supreme Command that since the 48th Army cannot be transferred to the Far East, then I will cooperate with the troops that will be transferred." The commanders were swapped so he was in charge of my troops and I was in charge of his troops."

  Axia asked with luck: "Did the Supreme Command agree to your request?"

"No." Sokov shook his head and continued: "When Comrade Marshal asked me to come to the headquarters of the Front Army today, I thought that the request was approved by my superiors, so I came here happily, but unexpectedly told me, The superior arranged for me to go back to Moscow to recuperate."

Assia saw that Sokov was thinking about going to the Far East to fight the Kwantung Army, and couldn't bear to pour cold water on him, so she comforted him and said, "Misha, don't worry, I think the Supreme Command will definitely consider your request. But What you have to do now is to go back to Moscow to get a good understanding and take care of your body. By the way, are you going to Moscow alone, or should I accompany you?"

"Of course you are going with me." Sokov said with a smile: "Otherwise, why would Comrade Marshal send someone to settle you here? We were supposed to leave today, but Comrade Marshal said it was too late , when our plane arrived in Moscow, it was already dark. So after discussing with his superiors, he decided to send a plane to pick us up tomorrow morning instead."

  Assia was thinking in her heart that usually it takes a month or two to recuperate in a nursing home, and she and Misha went to the nursing home, maybe there will be no further news about his going to the Far East, so that there is no need to worry about his safety. Thinking of this, a happy smile appeared on her face: "Great, Misha, this is really great. After fighting for so many years, we can finally live the lives of ordinary people together."

"You're right, even if I go to the Far East after a while, we can still live a normal life of ordinary people first." Sokov said: "If possible, we'd better have another child, we'd better get married After so many years, there are no children, and many people are specifically asking about this matter."

  Assia couldn't help being startled, and immediately asked: "Who is it? Misha, you said someone is concerned about our childlessness. Who is it?"

"There are a lot of people who care about us." Sokov said with a smile: "First, Marshal Rokossovsky, and then the Supreme Commander himself. A doctor, ready to do a comprehensive examination for us. But after listening to me explain the reason, probably no more doctors will be sent to us. "
