- No, it isn't.
-Well...
-Did you manage to have some meal?

-Aren't you on duty?
- There is a replacement. Let's go.
Saidov, stay here.
Sidorenko!
-Why are you silent?
-Yeah, this hill has to be stormed.
The timing is the key.
lfwe delaythe Germans by a half an hour or more,
that'll solve the problem...
They'll face the encirclement.
How many people will you assign to the attack, mayor?
l won't let you burythe whole regiment here.
l agree. The Germans are not
to be worried right now.
And l'll send my scout companythere.
-Yes, l will.
-What yes?
-They'll be there.
-Who will be?
-Malyutin and his people.
- Malyutin?
-Do you mean the guywho killed the saboteurs?
- That very Malyutin.
He isjust a boy, you know such people.
But a verytalented one.
-Will you issue such an order?
-Yes, l will. Because you'll give it to me.
And the orders are not to be discussed.
OK, it is all hot talk.
We might tryto find
some other solution.
ln any case, l'm not going
to bury my people for peanuts.
Comrade colonel...
-What?
-A new one.
The former one
was better.
OK. l'll help you if l can.
You know everything will be
assigned to this breakthrough.
Please, pass overto your Malyutin
my request. lt is not an order.
-Which one?
- He should survive.
lt is burning, lvan Semenovich!
Thanks a lot.
-Did you feed your man?
-Well, he is worse than a kid.
Are the communication
lines all right?
Communications?
lt is all right with the communications.
Thanks.

- Good luck to you.
-Are you the charmed one?
-Yes, l am.

- To get married?
No, not me.
Mytime is ahead.
-Do you have a beloved one?

but a farewell party.
And l seem to be ready
to marry any stranger.
-Malakhov!Take it!
-Yes, sir!

Your security officer captain Shulgin
visited me and asked a lot of questions.
lt is hisjob. The war is around.
We are in the front line.
l see.
-He asked who frequented my house.
-What did you say?
There are different visitors.
-You, folks, are among them.
- He knows about that anyway.
l did not tell him
any names,God forbid!
l'm a Russian,Vanya.
That's how it is.
That's what l thought.
Welcome to the table.
-Everything this house can offer.
-You are welcome.
l'm Markel Andronov.
l was born in the Tambov region.
ln 1920 l served in the Tukhachevsky army
and was taken as a prisoner under Byalostok.
Herfathertook me
from the camp to work for him.
We made love with her
here, in the haystack.
Oh, Virgin Mary,
do not mention it.
And when she got pregnant,
l had to become a Catholic
and marry her.
When her parents died,
l became the master ofthe farm.
Now l'm Pan Marek.
-Have you evertold this to anyone else?
- No, just to you only.
Listen, if Shulgin finds that out, he'll
get you from underthe ground!
He's got me already.
Listen, Vanya, may be l should go
to him myself, shouldn't l?
Should l confess sicerely
until it is not too late?
-The powerwill be yours now.
- Everything looks that way.
l will not come empty-handed.
l can bring a barrel of vodka.
l hid it in the basement before the war.
A 60-gallon barrel.
He'll confiscate your amazing barrel
without you. Sit here quietly.
Vanya, l'll get you acquiainted
with some folks.
-Which folks?
- From the Vlasov units.
What for?
The Germans made them set
all the minefields here.
They know all the passages
and easily get to my house.
They either stay awayforweeks
or visit us every other day.
So introduce them to Shulgin.
lt is his business.
Shulgin will execute
