The man obviously thought me a tiresome prig. He had no romantic illusions about the business; he had not been a Feldscher during twenty years for nothing and knew that a wound was a wound; when a man was dead he was dead. However.... "Truly it's not far?" he asked the soldier. "Tak totchno," the man answered, his face quite without expression.
We'd just won a battle!" "Tak totchno!" said the soldier gravely, "Twenty versts! the horses won't do it, your Honour!" "They've got to do it!" said Trenchard sharply, and the echo of the Austrian cannon, again as it seemed quite close at hand, emphasised his words.
"And the Vengerovsky ... they're to the right, are they?" "Yes, your Honour. By the high road, when it comes into the forest." "What? There where the road turns?" "Tak totchno." "How are things down there just now? Wounded, do you think?" "Ne mogoo znat. I'm unable to say, your Honour ... but there's been an attack there an hour ago." "Are those ours?" listening to a battery across the fields.
"But I know ... a terrible thing has happened to you. At any rate I am here to be of any use that I can." "Nikolai," I said, "why is there no one here?" "Ne mogoo znat, your Honour." "Well, the first soldier you see you must ask." "Tak totchno." "Who said you were to drive us?" "Vladimir Stepanovitch, your Honour." "Are you going to remain with us?" "Tak totchno."
Suddenly from the ditch at the side of the road a soldier appeared, spoke to our driver and disappeared again. "What did he say?" I asked. "He says, your Honour, that we must hasten. We may be hit." "Hit here on this road?" "Tak totchno." "Well, hurry then." I caught a little frightened sigh behind me from Andrey Vassilievitch, whom the events of the day had frozen into horror-stricken silence.
He got up on to his seat, his broad back was bent over his horses. "Well, and how have things been, Nikolai, busy?" "Nikak nyet not at all. Very quiet." "No wounded?" "Nothing at all, Barin, for two weeks now." "Have you liked that?" "Tak totchno. Certainly yes." "No, but have you?" "Tak totchno, Barin."
