guys!
Follow me!
Where are you going, Severyan?
Go on, Gnidko!
Come on, Gnidko, don't let me down!
Hold on, Gnidko! We'll get away!
Oh, shit... you antichrists!
Let me go, for Christ's sake!
Give me your rifle!
Everybody, dismount!
Collect the arms!
We've met at last, Mr. Chepalov.
lsn't it a surprise?
- Who is he, father?
- I don't know.
- Are you the village ataman?
- Yes, Captain.
Any Bolsheviks here?
No, sir. Whichever we had,
they left the village long ago.
Why haven't you arrested them?
My arm wasn't long enough then.
- Where can we stay here?
- I think, at merchant Chepalov's.
Try to remember everyone who
sympathized with the Bolsheviks.
Make a list and bring it to me.
And hurry up.
Bon appetit!
- Is the list ready?
- Yes, sir.
Check it out.
Lest the ataman overlooked someone.
There're only those here
who have been long gone.
Yet, even without them, we've got
Bolshevik sympathizers galore.
How do you explain it, ataman?
The Bolsheviks I know
have been all gone.
- What about Ivan Volkov?
- He's dying from the wounds.
And Dashka Kozulina?
Are you crazy? Dashutka is
your daughter-in-law.
Are you covering her up,
ataman?
Bubenchikov!
Yes, Captain?
Thirty five lashes! He has
a short memory on Bolsheviks.
Thirty five?
You have no right, Captain!
Take him!
Don't dare touch me, I said!
Take it easy, uncle.
Let's do it quietly.
It's not right.
You should not lash the ataman.
Don't criticize my actions,
will you?
Take his tunic off!
Mitka...
All right, that's enough.
Mount!
Hurry up!
Have a drink, Yelisey, it'll make
you feel better.
Get out of here, bastard!
- She's innocent!
- Go away.
No one should come near
the arrested!
Yes, Captain.
Back up, everybody!
Go and see what's taking them
so long.
- Ivan!
- Get out of here!
Why are you doing it to her, dear?
She's innocent!
Get lost!
- Who are you?
- May I report that in two...
- Your name?
- Village constable Ulybin.
How dare you, scoundrel, to wear
these crosses and shoulder-straps?
Keep off! I've shed my blood for
those crosses. I'm a soldier too!
I'm having such soldiers
hanged on the trees!
Where are your son and brother,
bastard?
Give it back, you dog!
I'm not responsible for them!
She's innocent!
Severyan!
Get the arrested in line!
- Captain!
- What is it?
Sir, the Reds are coming!
- What are you babbling about?
- The Reds, your honor!
- Off we go!
- Follow me!
First squadron,
follow me at a gallop!
- Hello, villagers!
- Hello, Cossacks!
- Hello, fellow villagers!
- Hello, Ivan!
- Hello!
- Hello, Darya Epifanovna.
- Hello.
What's the occasion
for this gathering?
- Who killed him?
- The punitive squad.
- When did they leave?
- Just now.
I'll be back soon, mother.
On your horses!
Follow me!
