The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

At daybreak, Dunnweiss and his entourage finally joined up with the main force.

After seeing that the majority of the troops were safe, Weiss distributed the military uniforms he had stolen last night with confidence.

"Sir, these uniforms don't have ranks! I'm afraid we can't pass for Russian soldiers!"

Last night, I was so busy picking up the military uniform that I didn't look at it carefully. It was at this time that Prouksky was the first to discover the problem.

Holding an unpacked military uniform, he came to Weiss and reported.

"This……"

Weiss looked at Dunn with some embarrassment. He didn't realize that he now had some people he was too dependent on. When he encountered difficulties, the first thing he did was to ask Dunn for advice.

But this time, before Dunn could speak, Solek spoke first.

"It doesn't matter. Since we can't pretend to be active Russian soldiers, from now on, our identities are retired Russian soldiers!"

After hearing Solek's suggestion, Weiss's eyes lit up.

Indeed, in the current situation, the risk would be smaller if one pretends to be a retired Russian soldier.

If they pretend to be active military personnel, they cannot produce a soldier's ID, and an officer's ID is also a very troublesome matter. Although the United States has planted many spies and agents in the Red Empire.

However, it might be possible to get some grazing permits and passes, but it would be very difficult to get a soldier's certificate. At least in the Central Asian steppes, the United States probably does not have spies of this level.

The informants they contacted several times were all local grassroots administrative personnel, such as An Xianwen, whom they met before, whose external identity was a teacher.

But if you pretend to be a retired soldier, you won’t have so many concerns.

Even if you can't produce any ID at the moment, you can still say something. It's okay if you forgot to bring it or lost it.

Dunn frowned and looked at the military uniform in his hand. Finally, he threw the uniform on the ground, stepped on it a few times, and rubbed it on the ground for a while. Everyone looked at Dunn in surprise.

At this time, Dunn slowly picked up the military uniform that was covered with dust and dirt from the ground and patted it.

After shaking off the dirt on the surface, he put it on and said.

"Since you are a retired soldier, there is no need for your uniform to be so new!"

Everyone understood immediately. Although Dunn's military uniform looked bright in color after being simply made old, at least the first impression was that it was not a new piece of clothing.

If a soldier is retired, wearing a brand new military uniform will also be a huge flaw.

After Dunn closed the shop, after everyone received the military uniforms, they immediately threw them on the ground and stepped on them, pressed them with their hands, and even poured mud on the clothes and rubbed them.

Make the military uniform in your hand look not so new.

Soon a dusty Russian soldier took shape.

"Sir, we should ask if we can get some soldiers' discharge certificates. With these certificates, I believe we can take a train directly within Russia to where we want to go!"

After everyone was done, Dunn suggested to Weiss and Solek.

After listening to Dunn's suggestion, Weiss directly called the signalman and asked him to contact the higher-ups as soon as possible.

However, while waiting for the reply from above, everyone did not delay and continued to move towards their destination.

However, compared to the previous time when they had to avoid densely populated areas, everyone was much bolder this time.

He went directly to a larger village nearby, exchanged food with some people in the village, and visited the collective farm in the village.

They announced that a certain Russian army unit had just retired and was going to Kazakhstan to support construction.

Of course, their target is Uzbekistan, and talking about Kazakhstan is just a smoke bomb.

In the afternoon, everyone came out of the village saying they were going to a nearby city to catch a train without staying for too long.

However, it was at this time that the higher-ups finally gave the news that they were going to send someone back to the city of Taraz in Kazakhstan to find the contact person to get the documents.

This caused trouble for those who had already crossed into Kyrgyzstan.

You have to know that there are 6 people in the team who can't speak Russian, so going back will be more risky.

“It’s not necessary for everyone to go!”

Solek looked at the order coming from above and sighed.

His eyes turned to Dunn, which gave Dunn a bad feeling.

"Only Dunn and I will go, and the others will stay at the designated location, or rather, go to the border between Tajikistan and Uzbekistan to wait for us!"

After listening to Solek's suggestion, Weiss did not object and nodded directly, but Dunn was unwilling to follow Solek back.

You have to know that they don’t have any identity documents now. If they want to return to Taraz in Kazakhstan, they can basically only walk there on foot.

It might be better when coming back, as you can take the train after getting your ID, but it’s very troublesome when going there!

However, neither Solek nor Weiss asked Dunn's opinion at this time. The two began to discuss the next route of the large force, whether to wait where they were or to meet up at the border between Tajikistan and Uzbekistan.

Even if Dunn wanted to express his objection clearly, he couldn't get a word in.

Finally, Weiss and Solek agreed to meet at a location at the junction of Tau, and the large force had to move forward in order to save time.

After discussing the result, Solek and Dunn immediately packed their bags.

However, Solek was not wearing a military uniform. Although Solek was a CIA agent, he had never been a soldier and did not have the temperament of a soldier. Experienced veterans would be able to recognize him at a glance, and that would only be a trouble.

Dunn didn't change into other clothes but wore a military uniform. Although he had never been a soldier in his previous life and had been a soldier since he traveled to this era, Dunn had once been an officer in the US military stationed in Japan.

The U.S. military is not that relaxed and needs regular training, so Dunn still has the temperament and demeanor of a soldier.

Solek acted very decisively. After packing his luggage, he immediately said goodbye to Weiss and set off with Dunn.

"It seems like you don't seem to be willing to follow me!"

After leaving the main force, Solek asked meaningfully.

Just after he made the suggestion, he noticed Dunn's expression. It seemed that Dunn did not want to take the task this time.

"Not really willing!"

Seeing that he had not hidden it from Solek, Dunn admitted it openly.

"The main reason is that we have been marching since entering the Red Empire and we are a little tired! This time we have to rush to Taraz, and the round trip distance is not short! It will be very tiring to walk there!"

After listening to Dunn's explanation, Solek shrugged his shoulders. He really didn't expect that Dunn was unwilling to follow him for this reason.

"Haha! Who said we were going to walk over there?"
