34 – Summer Offensive

“Welcome to the 1st Cavalry Division, Officers Faculty.”

“Thank you, Captain.”

I lightly held the hand that my brother had extended. Could it be that I am not laughing?

It’s not unusual to try to set the mood in front of people.

Calm down. Because I came here as a student, not as a younger brother.

“Welcome, Enterprise students. And also Ariete Klotzen.”

“Go, thank you!”

“Thank you for the hospitality, Commander Reinhardt.”

Let’s say hello and go in and have a cup of tea.

Hyung took Enter, Ar, and me to the division commander’s office.

“….”

As he moved his steps, he quietly looked around and looked at his troops.

Hyung.

The son of the commander-in-chief and the daughter of Jeon Seung-gong. This is a scroll of explosive magic that moves.

The moment Nana Ar says something strange… Mmm. You have to be careful

“You will suffer for the next month. You will be temporarily assigned to the 5th Cavalry Regiment.”

The older brother who put the car in front of us smiled lightly and told us where we would be assigned.

5Th Cavalry Regiment. Erwin is there. Did he say that this time he had risen to the rank of company commander?

It went in properly. I think my brother paid attention to her knowing that I had a connection with Erwin.

“Before that, I have to ask you one thing.”

Enter and Ar were calm expressions. They seem to think they’re going to say something like ‘I hope you don’t boast about being an aristocrat’… Isn’t that right, kids?

“Königssen’s movement is unusual.”

As expected, the Empire also got the outline of their offensive at the last minute.

“The Imperial 3rd and 9th Infantry Divisions already in front of us are preparing for battle. Unless there is a separate transmission of the situation, we will be maintaining combat readiness.”

“Commander. Then….”

“If you go to your assigned place, you will have to prepare for sortie right away. Please, I hope nothing happens… Wars always break out when we least expect it.”

So, what my older brother wanted to tell us was this.

It would be good for everyone to be prepared. This is an angle to fight unconditionally.

That would be scary. You will want to run away. Because you can still

But don’t do that. Now that you’ve come this far, prepare to mount your horse as an officer, as a soldier of the Empire, and raise your sword.

“I will do my best. Division commander.”

Tension, excitement, and all kinds of other emotions mix and turn into laughter.

Some might say I’m crazy, but there’s nothing more representative of my current feelings than this.

And the hyung who stood in front of me must know that feeling better than anyone else.

“I’m having a hard time.”

The hyung who cheered me up from Enter to Ar stands in front of me.

Then he patted my shoulder slowly for a little longer than the two of them.

“… I never thought I would see you again like this.”

“Sure. I didn’t know either.”

Sorry. It is a lie. Actually, I did a lot of things to meet like this.

After lightly shaking hands with Erwin, he introduced the party.

“This is an enterprise. The other side is Ariete Klotchen.”

“Ariete… Klotchen? Wait for a sec. Leah. Isn’t it? Hopefully that person….”

“Perhaps ‘that’ the company commander thinks is right.”

“Huh. I couldn’t believe that His Excellency’s daughter would come.”

It’s only natural that Erwin and everyone around him are the flagships.

No, but you guys weren’t that surprised when I introduced myself.

The commander-in-chief’s son made it! I showed up, but why did I look fine?!

“I said above, Lihi, you can come… I never thought you would come to such a person.”

Ah, that’s right. The news of my visit has already been reported above.

“Please do just that much, company commander. I didn’t come here as Klochen’s daughter. Now, I am a student of the Officers Faculty who came to learn and experience even a little more.”

As soon as Ar spoke clearly, Erwin said in vain and stood up.

And then, ‘Okay,’ she replies, then takes a businesslike tone.

“You must have heard the news on the way here.”

“I heard it was very boring. From the regimental commander to the battalion commander.”

“The situation is not easy. According to the news, all front infantry divisions have gone into combat readiness. I’m not sure why I’m confining all of you to my company and not to the Regimental Headquarters at this time….”

Ah, sorry again. It’s because of me too. I strongly requested

The Commander-in-Chief and Jeon Seung-gong would be very uncomfortable if they stayed comfortably at the regiment headquarters.

I mean they wouldn’t like to be comfortable with me being my child.

Thanks to that, he was a regimental and battalion commander, and he was so frightened that he even went down to the company.

There must have been a secret order from the higher up to have Erwin come out as soon as possible.

“For now, I will assign the mission according to my own discretion. First, Mr. Enter. You can move with me as my adjutant. And Lihi-sama, you can take the position of 3rd Platoon Commander of the 3rd Company, which is currently vacant.”

The 3rd platoon leader is Erwin’s position before becoming a company commander.

From noble mtl dot com

It seems that he was promoted so quickly that he couldn’t decide on a successor.

I’m glad. I could trust the soldiers who had been with Erwin.

The noncommissioned officers must be filled with talented people. It can fill me up enough that I am still lacking in practice.

“Arriete-sama… Um, the seat is a little vague.”

“If possible, I would like to be with Lihi. Is it possible?”

“Then, Mr. Lihi. No, you can take the position of Lihi’s platoon commander’s adjutant.”

After the seats were set, Enter did what he did, and Ar and I did what we did next.

One month ahead. It’s short, but it’s also a long time to say hello to the people who will be together for an hour.

“Nice to meet you all. This is Rich Reinhardt, who came as the temporary 3rd Platoon Commander.”

“This is Ariete Klotchen.”

“Oh, come on! Welcome to the 3rd Platoon!”

Everyone seems to be very nervous with their military discipline upright.

It must be unavoidable. The commander-in-chief’s son or division commander’s younger brother. Next to him is the daughter of Jeon Seung-gong.

From their point of view, it would be crazy and jumping. Full of regret

“Please take good care of me for a month. I lack a lot, so he gives me a lot of advice. Your advice may be the foundation for saving other soldiers of the Empire in the future.”

It’s not just words. The experience and advice of experienced soldiers is an irreplaceable resource.

I am above them in the field of administration, but they are overwhelming in terms of experience on the battlefield.

And now, the place I need to go is not in front of my desk, but on the battlefield. They are my ancestors

The honor of a nobleman, the authority of an officer, of course matter. Because it is the power to lead the soldiers.

However, I want to meet the minimum qualifications. To do that, we need their help.

“I will do my best.”

Fortunately, not only the soldiers but also the skilled noncommissioned officers were friendly.

At times like this, I felt grateful that I was from Reinhardt.

“Please take good care of me too. You don’t just hate being a knight, do you?”

“That, could it be? It will never happen.”

I think Ar was trying to put a little playfulness in the stiff atmosphere.

I think I need a little more time to accept that joke as a joke.

*

A week has passed since I came to the base. The academy must be on vacation by now.

I haven’t done much in the meantime. First, memorize the names of the soldiers.

“Good morning, Thomas.”

“Hut! Good night!”

“So, would you like to exercise in the morning? We need to do more, Rickson.”

“Poem, I will correct it!”

It may not seem like a big deal, but it’s actually not a big deal.

However, memorizing this name is much more important than I thought.

Humans are complex yet simple creatures. You will remember and follow those who call you by name more than if you call them ‘Hey!’

It’s not for nothing that the new battalion commanders said they would memorize the soldiers’ names.

And the next thing I did was-

“Leehi. You seem to have collected quite a bit, but are you thinking of collecting more here?”

“To collect as many as possible.”

“There are already a lot of fodder in reserve. But why….”

I persuaded Ar that there is a reason for everything.

Let’s be honest. A person can live without starving for several days. Even though it’s hard, you can fight.

But it is not a word. If these children don’t eat properly, they’re out of power.

You have to run all day. They even carry people on their backs. This is a natural result.

However, sometimes they are misunderstood. If you let the horses loose in the field, they know that they will eat anything.

Bullsh*t. It is like giving a person raw rice and wheat to eat.

For those who have to eat again right away, ride on people, and run and run again.

Forage is like oil. The moment you fall, your mobility is zero. It’s deadly here.

Where did another Erwin in the world run out of oil and eventually back down after defeating them all?

“I’m sorry, Ar, but check the status of the other supplies again.”

“Yes. Don’t worry. I will do it carefully without missing a single thing.”

I want to check everything else and prepare more, but this is the limit for me right now.

In that case, it was decided that it would be better to directly take care of the items that are easy to lose and consume quickly.

As expected, it’s no joke. Even a single platoon is this much, but if you go later….

No. Later work later. There is nothing more foolish than buying and worrying.

The important thing right now is to do your best in what you can do right now.

And a few days later. The news that I was worried about but waited for again arrived.

“Red Raid! This is Königssen’s attack!”

Their summer offensive has begun.
