And he was amazed and shuddered almost as much as his enemies when, in the blaze of red manes and with the dull thunder of horseshoes, five cavalrymen flew into the clearing and stood in a semicircle.

And the most chief rider- dark-skinned, white-toothed, in a green shirt and a canvas Budenovka with a blue cloth star - said quietly..."
