章 242: Chapter 33 Start of the War

In September of 914, at 0330 hours, Wang Zhong arrived early at the division headquarters bunker.

Clutching a large steel cup, Pavlov saw Wang Zhong enter and asked, "Fancy some tea? Today is likely to be a long day."

Wang Zhong, "No, I'll pass on your tea. Nelly, make me some tea."

Popov, "Me too!"

Nelly promptly left.

Wang Zhong picked up the binoculars and went to the bunker's observation window to look outside. The field of view from this observation window was much worse than the one from the windows of the division headquarters' map room, but Wang Zhong had a cheat; a simple switch of perspective granted him a clear field of vision.

In the dim morning light, the west bank was silent.

Even with Wang Zhong's cheat perspective, there were no highlighted units.

Wang Zhong, "Is the enemy completely foregoing reconnaissance?"

Pavlov answered, "After you went to sleep last night, there were enemy reconnaissance squads. Didn't you hear the machine-gun fire?"
