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

Dunn has always judged this era by the standards of later generations, but in fact there is still a big difference between this era and later generations.

For example, this time Dunn had always thought that he and Solek needed to walk all the way back to Taraz in Kazakhstan, until Solek took Dunn to the nearest railroad track to wait for a train. When the train passed by, they climbed onto the train with the files. Although it was just a freight train, at least the two of them saved time walking.

Of course, then I thought, even in later times, it seemed that people could still hijack trains in the 1980s and 1990s.

Today's steam locomotives are not that fast, and the protective nets along the railways are not as tight as those in later generations.

Not to mention two people, this time they were just climbing a freight train, even if two people were climbing a passenger bus it would be possible.

After all, the target of two people is much smaller than that of a 27-man special operations team.

Naturally, you will be more flexible in your actions.

"Hahaha! Young people should use their brains more and be more flexible!"

Dunn felt helpless as he looked at Solek who was looking smug across from him. He originally thought that he could only take the train openly when he came back and had his ID, but now he could do it secretly as well.

The only unpleasant thing was that this was a train carrying sand, and the feeling of sand getting into clothes was not very pleasant, but at least it was much better than walking to Taraz.

Of course, this freight train is not only using sand, but we also found that there is coal in the freight car in front. It seems that it will be even more troublesome on the train carrying coal. By then, all the clothes will be sticky and black. It will be a hassle to wash clothes on the grassland.

"This train is heading to Kazakhstan. We need to be careful and avoid being spotted by the patrol officers every time the train enters the station. There shouldn't be any problems!"

Solek stroked his beard.

"At worst we can just jump off the train every time it comes to a station. There won't be a shortage of freight cars along the railway anyway!"

"Then let's hope we can meet a passenger train next time!"

Dunn spread his hands and said that there were still many things he needed to adapt to in this era.

"In that case, as long as we avoid the conductor's ticket check, we should be able to sit for a long time!"

"It will pass if we just bear with it. Anyway, we have just entered Kyrgyzstan and it is not that far from Taraz!"

Solek looked nonchalant.

The fact was just as he said. The train quickly crossed the border between Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan and headed towards Kazakhstan. Although the speed was not fast and could be caught up with on a fast horse, it was much faster than two people walking.

However, this train was not alone. Solek and Dunn were not the only ones who boarded the train. Several other groups of people boarded the train along the way. However, they all tacitly agreed not to sit in the same carriage.

Everyone maintained the appropriate social distance.

Although they were very tired, Solek and Dunn still maintained due vigilance. Even if they wanted to sleep, one of them would remain alert.

After they agreed that each person would sleep for two hours and then take another person's turn, Dunn fell asleep first.

After the two of them had been doing this for two or three times, Dunn noticed that the other hitchhikers had started to jump off the train one after another. Knowing that the train was about to arrive at the station, he immediately called Solek and jumped off the train together with Solek.

Solek took out a map and studied it and said.

"The next stop for this train should be a town called Kubansk. This stop is not far from Tazik. We don't need to take a ride for the rest of the journey. We can just walk there!"

Dunn nodded in agreement. After a few hours of hitchhiking, he had almost recovered.

However, the two people's walking plan did not take long to be implemented. On the way, they met a group of herdsmen who were going into the city to handle bulk goods. After giving the herdsmen some rubles, the herdsmen took the two people into the city of Tazik.

“These herders are so hospitable!”

After entering the city and saying goodbye to the herders, Solek and Dunn sighed.

After they entered the territory of the Red Empire, they encountered several nomadic gathering places and villages. The people they met were very welcoming, which left a good impression on Solek.

"This happened after the invention of the Maxim machine gun. Before the Maxim machine gun was invented, these herdsmen were not like this!"

Dunn curled his lips and recalled a joke from his previous life.

“Thanks to Maxim for making these grassland herdsmen sing and dance!”

Solek was choked by Dunn's words and wanted to refute him, but when he thought about it carefully, it made sense!

After shaking his head, he said nothing more.

Tazik is not a big city. It gives people an overall shabby feeling of grassland. Although there are some industrial facilities in the city, they are out of tune with the style of the entire city.

Dunn and Solek walked around Tazik for a while, familiarized themselves with the terrain, and then walked into a small restaurant in the city to solve the problem of food and clothing first.

The restaurant's business was booming, there were not many empty tables, and the Russian food was very simple. Although both of them were fluent in Russian, they were not very familiar with Russian cuisine. In addition, the cuisine in the steppe area was very different from that in the main areas of Russia.

After the two of them ordered some random food, which was nothing more than some barbecued potatoes and the like, while they were waiting, a few men in military uniforms suddenly came in from outside the restaurant.

Dunn took a quick look and found a familiar face, the Russian officer Valenko who had recognized Weiss before.

This surprised Dunn a little, and he sighed that the world was too small to encounter such a thing. You have to know that Tazik was still quite a distance away from Urubanovs.

This table of Russian officers sat at the table next to Dunn and Solek.

And Valenko sat next to Dunn.

"Have we met this friend before? I saw you staring at me for a while just now!"

After sitting down, Valenko did not speak to his colleagues, but asked Dunn first. He noticed Dunn's gaze just now.

"No, we probably haven't met before. You just look like an acquaintance of mine. But if you look closely, there are some differences between you two!"

Dunn didn't expect that Valenko was so observant, and he felt a little overwhelmed for a moment.

It seems that I have to be more careful in the future. When I separated from the main force before, Solek saw through my thoughts. This time, I was secretly observing Valenko and was discovered by him again. I was too careless.
