world? I not expect you to believe my word without proof, I’ll show you.”
At that point, Janna eyes opened, and she started cursing herself again. Damn, she had seen this woman before. Her brain must be sludge for her to have taken so long to put two and two together. This was the CEO of the company that had sent people into space.
CHAPTER SEVEN
Boris was tired. Sleep wasn’t a likely option either. He had five thousand volunteers for the action group. He’d picked a hundred from them easily. They had either served with him or had exceptional service records for their military service. That filled out the officers. He was planning on spreading both officers and operatives in a wide dispersal, using pods if necessary to travel between locations. No more than five hundred agents per area, but only seven proposed areas of operation. It wasn’t like they were expecting to set up bases or open resistance. They were planning to gather intelligence and fight limited actions against the NVG.
Satellites would find it hard to impossible to get an exact count on the refugee column. Once Janna had been vetted by Bethany Anne, and she agreed to help, her current military knowledge was put to use in planning a route to the Mongolian border that kept to the highway as long as possible while avoiding all population centers. His people would be traveling slowly, and it would add several days but within three weeks they would be safe. The first group had gone ahead with half the Tundra pack and a couple of large strings of horses for the cross-country section. Half the column would still have to walk out once they left the highways, though. There were only so many vehicles available that could travel the off-road section. That included the fifty military trucks that they had scrounged and those captured from the NVG.
The tundra pack had, to a wolf, decided to join the Guardians. This would expand the Guardians by two hundred and fifty wolves. Two dozen ‘lones’ that they tolerated in their territory had also decided to join. Some Wechselbalg wolves didn’t like company, much like most of the bears. But the adventure was enough to attract them.
He had the officers and those who had volunteered to stay behind organizing the packing of supplies. Each person could take what they could carry on their back in personal possessions. Any off-road vehicle that had cargo-only space was being loaded to capacity with supplies.
Danislav knocked on the door and entered the room. “Boris, at least half the wolves are leaving for the Guardians. Might be more when word reaches those who didn’t come to the meeting.”
Boris shrugged and said, “Their choice. If I was a century younger and wasn’t the best person to try and keep a lid on Russia, I might choose that too.”
Danislav snorted at the idiocy of the comment, “No, you wouldn’t. Have you got the officer list for the Czarina? She wants to get an early start on making sure your choices are right tomorrow so she isn’t tied up here for too long. ”
Boris passed the folder over. It listed each person’s proposed position and relevant experience.
“Oh and Boris, I’d take Vassily over to her first. I wouldn’t keep him trapped under guard for too much time. He does have a temper. But with his contacts, he could be very useful if he can be trusted.”
Boris only grunted. He didn’t trust Vassily at the moment, but if he had proof that someone else had caused this mess Danislav was right. Boris looked at the clock. Time to get a few hours of sleep before he needed to do talk to Vassily, though.

Janna was surprised that she had been called to this early meeting with Boris and Bethany Anne.
Yesterday Bethany Anne had done as promised. Janna blushed at the memory. When the pod had gone straight up, she’d grabbed Bethany Anne’s leg. The response had been “You are cute. If I were a man, I’d be flattered, but I don’t swing that way so
