Volume 3: Book 14 - Chapter 5

Characters Present:

Denísov

Pétya Rostóv
Tíkhon Shcherbáty
A captured French drummer-boy

Location: 

Shámshevo


Denísov is hiding in the bushes looking at French troops with Pétya Rostóv.  The French drummer-boy who they have captured is confusedly naming French person of interest. 

Suddenly, Tíkhon, who they had sent to capture a "tongue" - that is, someone who will divulge information - runs by, being chased by the French.

It is revealed that Tíkhon, up until when he was shot, had an excellent record for capturing French soldiers.
