On the night of November 5th, while Vienna was busy due to Romania's sudden declaration of war, Deva County in the Transylvania region was still shrouded in peace. Because this is the last railway line from Bucharest to Bupes in Austria-Hungary.
site, so its military status is revealed.
Therefore, a Hungarian division (stationed in Deva), a Czech division (stationed in Petroshany not far from the border), and an Upper Austrian infantry regiment (stationed in Ilir on the Mures River) were stationed in Deva County.
It can be seen from the map that the Czech division on the border is facing the peak of Romanian troops, while the Hungarian division in Deva appears as a reinforcement, and the Austrian infantry regiment is the second reinforcement target. Of course, this is based on the map.
Romania was defended in a triangle formation, which also showed that the basic quality of the Austro-Hungarian commanders was very qualified.
Thick night is now covering the earth, and most of the people in the Czech division in Petrosani are sleeping peacefully. The reason why they are so relieved is because they have strict sentries at the border with Romania and can be used at any time.
To monitor border movements, in particular, they have two companies of troops stationed as forward sentries in the Dila Valley, located on the border thoroughfare.
As one of the few strategic crossings located in the Southern Carpathians, the Dila River Valley is one of the few valleys with fairly gentle undulations. The Dila River originates from the territory of Deva, flows through Targuzyu, mixes with the Riu River, and then flows into the Danube River.
This also makes it the only transportation artery connecting Romania. Romania's railways to Central Europe basically pass through here, so its location is very critical. And this is also the only railway in Romania that can lead to Transylvania.
, it is also crucial for the development of future campaigns.
On this cold winter night, a group of people wearing white concealment clothing were sneaking quietly in the river valley. Through their actions of sneaking in the snow without making a sound and their capable performance, it can be seen that this is a specially trained team.
The army stopped halfway into the valley because a small outpost appeared in front of it.
"Major, should you remove this outpost or should we?"
Lurking at the front of the team, a young officer with the rank of captain asked a middle-aged man next to him who was already in his forties but still showed a strong aura. According to the captain, this middle-aged man is a
Major.
With the moonlight in the snow, we can see that the captain who is speaking is Captain Mizik who previously served in the 19th Division. And the middle-aged man lying next to him will definitely be there if Sodavar and Nisidel are there.
You know, isn't this Varisi, who was their instructor at Volkswagen back then? Why is he now a major?
This is actually a long story. When Varisi was seconded to the Volkswagen factory as an instructor, it was because he had made mistakes in the army, and was later called back because of the needs of the army. However, his essence remains unchanged and he is still dead.
If he doesn't change, the achievements he made in carrying out various dangerous missions over the years have been offset by the mistakes he made. So it took more than ten years for him to be promoted to a higher level. However, seeing that he is getting older, he is afraid that he will retire in the future.
It was brought about by the difficulties in life in the future.
This time, because the mission of raiding Petroshani was crucial, Major Varisi, who is proficient in raids, assassinations, and explosions, came with a team of elite soldiers to ensure the completion of the mission. And Captain Mizik because of the 19th Division
The defense changed to Targuzhiu, and as the most capable company of the 19th Division, of course, it was necessary to use good steel on the blade. They cooperated with Major Varisi to take the lead in removing the sentries along the line, laying a solid foundation for the main force to attack.
It needs to be said that the raiding force will not be the 19th Division stationed nearby in Targuzyu. Instead, in order to ensure the success rate, the 1st Guards Division will be stationed in Craiova, 60 kilometers away.
Raid troops. Through these elaborate actions, it can also be seen that the General Staff attaches great importance to this raid. Now is the time to test them.
"This is a standard Austro-Hungarian class post, with no more than fifteen people inside. In addition to the open post, there is also a hidden sentry outside the post, which is in the haystack next to the sentry post. There should be two more people on duty inside the sentry post.
I’d better do it.”
As expected of being proficient in raids, Major Warisi made a brief observation and told the result to Captain Mizik beside him. This shocked Mizik. He did not expect that with just a few observations, this
That much can be known by the name Major Varisi.
Major Warisi ignored Mizik's shock and pointed at two of his team members, indicating that they should deal with the two light and dark sentries in front of them. The two men quietly sneaked towards the sentries, and these two
A soldier of the Austro-Hungarian army was completely unaware of the approaching danger and still stared blankly around him.
At this time, two elite raiders pounced and knocked down the two Austro-Hungarian soldiers. Then they covered their mouths and stabbed them in the heart. The limbs of the two Austro-Hungarian soldiers began to move.
They struggled, but were held down by two team members. After struggling for ten seconds, the two soldiers stopped moving. At this time, Major Warisi led the other team members to slowly move forward, and Captain Mizik
He also followed with his team members.
"How about it? Do I need to teach you how to solve it?"
When Captain Mizik led the people over, Major Warisi quietly pointed at the outpost and asked.
Facing Varisi's inquiry, he knew that Major Varisi had already solved the most difficult post, and he only had to deal with other soldiers who were not vigilant enough. So he nodded to the major and led his men into the post.
The deputy who stayed outside and was familiar with Major Vasily asked him curiously, "Major, why are you so nice to this captain?"
When asked by his deputy, Major Vasily smiled and said, "The main reason is that I think his personality is compatible with mine and I want to give him a chance."
Faced with the major's remarks, the deputy did not continue to ask. However, he also became interested in Captain Mizik. He planned to observe carefully how this captain could obtain the most famous small-scale raid in the country, Varisi.
The major valued.
Five minutes later, Captain Mizik led his team members out of the post. From the faint red spots on the sleeves of his team members, he knew that the problem had been solved.
"Keep on going."
Major Warisi didn't care whether Mizik's people were comfortable or not, and continued on their way. Because this was the first sentry post they had to deal with. They had a very heavy task tonight, and they still needed to deal with three such class sentry posts. And it was even more difficult.
The important thing is that they also need to raid the station where the two companies are stationed to lay a good foundation for the troops behind them.
