At the confluence of the Ort River and the Danube River, this is the urban area of Turnu, a city on the southern border of Romania. Because of its important geographical location, it was the location of the Roman army in ancient times, and it is now the location of the 19th Division.
Today is the rest day of the 19th Division. A large number of officers and soldiers have finished nearly a week of heavy training and plan to go out and relax. However, some people plan to continue training, whether forced or voluntarily. This has attracted a lot of laughter from the resting officers and soldiers.
Meaning. There is nothing happier than watching an unlucky person. If there is one, it means being unlucky twice in a row.
At this time when everyone was full of contentment, a neatly lined up team in training uniforms was running towards the outside of the military camp. The other officers and soldiers nearby were no longer surprised by this, and even joked: "7
Soldiers of the company, I lost a pair of underwear in Rum Mountain, please help me find it."
This sentence triggered a counterattack from someone in the 7th company. "You're welcome, as long as you wash your butt and wait for us."
The rude conversation between the two made the soldiers watching the fun burst into laughter. Amid the laughter of these soldiers, the 7th Company advanced towards its destination, Rum Mountain. The 7th Company is the nickname of the 7th Company, 2nd Battalion, 1st Regiment, 2nd Brigade of the 19th Division.
.Rum Mountain, five kilometers away, is also a place often visited by the army for training.
After running out of the camp, a soldier in the third row of the 7th company complained to his comrades. "Dillu, this is the third time that you and Doss have caused the entire company to cancel their vacation. How are you going to compensate the big guys?"
.”
The soldier's words made Dilu feel that the teammates around him were looking at him unkindly. So he tried to explain, "I don't want to be like this either. Doss and I talked very late last night because we could rest today, so this morning
The collection was not organized and dressed properly.”
Dilu's words made his comrades even more dissatisfied. "You know that Lieutenant Mizik pays most attention to the morning assembly. This is the first time you and Doss have ruined the entire company's rest. The housekeeping is not up to standard and the firearms maintenance is not standardized.
Tactical moves always go wrong."
The more the comrades talked, the more excited they became. "Since you two came to the 7th Company, we haven't had a normal vacation. Aren't you two ashamed?"
The excited words of his comrades attracted the sergeant on duty. "You two have a lot to talk about. Do you want me to call you out alone to continue talking?"
Seeing the stern eyes of the sergeant on duty, the two of them dared not speak, but continued running with the queue without saying a word. A group of people ran to Rum Mountain and then ran back to the camp. Everyone was panting, and
Their company commander, Lieutenant Mizik, was waiting for them at the camp.
Mizik has changed a lot from graduating from the military academy to being the company commander for the seventh time. He found out that much of the knowledge in books was useless after entering the army. However, Mizik is very adaptable and he learned a lot about leading troops from his colleagues.
Experience. The soldiers never looked down on him as a young military cadet, but now they treat him with respect. All these require his own efforts to change. After all, the army is about ability, and now he is the most dignified grassroots member of the entire regiment.
One of the officers.
Looking at the soldiers of the 7th Company who were so tired that they wanted to lie down, but still stood upright, and their fatigue could only be felt through their heaving chests and sweat on their foreheads, Mizik was very satisfied.
After receiving Mizik's approval, the officer on duty issued an order to the entire company. "Disband and rest. Military skills training will take place in fifteen minutes."
As the order was given, the soldiers of the 7th Company collapsed on the ground.
At this time, the messenger from the regiment headquarters ran over, walked to Mizik, performed a military salute and reported. "Lieutenant Mizik, the regiment leader asked you to go to the headquarters."
Mizik returned the greeting and said, "Okay, I understand."
He faced the expectant eyes of the soldiers of the Seventh Company and gave instructions to the officer on duty. "I'll go to the headquarters, and you take them to continue training. If I don't come back at noon, you give them half a day off."
"Well done, company commander."
Mizik walked towards the regiment headquarters amidst the cheers of the soldiers of the 7th company. Not only did he know how to be strict, he also knew when to let the soldiers rest.
At the headquarters of the 1st Regiment, Commander Delson was handling the work at hand. Because they were a new unit, the workload was much greater than that of the old unit, so while the soldiers and lower-level officers were resting, he was still busy with the regiment.
work.
"Report."
"Come in."
Lieutenant Mizik walked into Commander Delson's office, saluted and reported loudly. "Lieutenant Mizik is here to report."
Captain Delson stood up and returned the greeting and said to Lieutenant Mizik, "Sit down, Lieutenant."
Mizik sat in front of Captain Delson in a standard sitting position.
Captain Delson was very satisfied with Mizik's performance and asked, "Do you know what I want to see you for?"
"Reporting to the head of the delegation, I don't know."
Captain Delson looked at Mizk and said, "You are the most capable officer I have ever seen."
Mizik immediately stood up and said to Captain Delson, "Thank you for the compliment, Captain. I think I still need to learn."
"Okay, sit down."
After seeing Mizik sit down, Captain Delson continued. "I know very well how the 7th Company you are leading now is. You must know that the 7th Company gave me a lot of headaches before you came."
Commander Delson took out two lieutenant stars from the drawer and continued to Mizk. "In order to commend you for your outstanding achievements in the army, I applied to the division headquarters for a promotion to your military rank."
After speaking, he gestured to Mizik with two captain stars and said, "This is the reply from the division headquarters. Congratulations to you, Captain Mizik."
Looking at the two captain stars in the hands of Captain Delson, Mizk would be lying if he said he was not excited, but his years of experience allowed him to suppress this emotion. After saluting Captain Delson, he said, "Thank you.
Your Excellency, the head of the regiment, is interested in me."
Commander Delson personally gave him the captain star and said, "You deserve this. I hope you will continue your efforts and ask the General Staff to issue you a promotion order next time."
After Commander Delson promoted Mizik to military rank, he continued to talk to him. "Our 1st Regiment is the strongest regiment of the 19th Division, and I think the 7th Company is the strongest company of our 1st Regiment. I have a mission here."
You Company 7 will complete it."
Mizik immediately stood up and said, "Captain, you are right, our 7th company is the strongest in the whole group, please give us the task."
"Tomorrow an armored platoon of four tanks will arrive at our 19th Division. The main purpose of their coming is to familiarize us with this tank and allow our division to receive training in infantry and tank coordination. The division commander assigned this task to our regiment.
It is to recognize the strength of our regiment. And now that I have given you the first opportunity to accept this kind of training mission, it is also to recognize the status of the 7th Company in the regiment. Do you understand?"
Of course, Mizik knew clearly about tanks. Whether it was the British Mark I tank or the domestic Explorer tank, he had seen pictures and information issued by the division. Infantry and tanks could cooperate, which made him confused.
But he couldn't retreat at this time, so Mizik replied loudly. "Understood, commander. I will let the 7th Company perform as it should."
After Mizik left the regiment headquarters, he couldn't care less about the joy of his promotion. He began to search everywhere for information on tank-infantry cooperation. He didn't want to make a fool of himself during training tomorrow.
