223 – Taking Your Breath (2) – Defending the Borders of Polania
Enoch Levandel was promoted to lieutenant general. He was originally offered the position of lieutenant general, but he decided to remain with the 87th Division in order to project a more effective influence throughout Polania.
However, as the operation in the Gdanskuf area was over and the reorganization of the 87th Rapid Response Division, which held tribute, was in progress, it was the will of the Expeditionary Force Command that it could not make fun of Enoch Levandel in the rear at a critical time.
And at the same time as he was promoted to lieutenant general, the unit entrusted to Enoch Levandel was the newly established 6th Corps.
Uk ran was still in a state of mobilization.
Even at this time, countless young people were pouring down to the training center, and the formation of the originally envisioned 8 corps and a total of over 30 divisions was also steadily progressing.
“Still, we have more practical combat experience than newly established corps or divisions that are being formed in the mainland.”
“…… It is a practical experience.”
At the words of the corps chief of staff, Enoch made a puzzled expression.
When the Polania Expeditionary Forces Headquarters was established, it was one of the three corps that were included in it, but its military record was not very good, to say the least.
First of all, the southern part of Polania has been the main battlefield of the Uk ranian Expeditionary Force.
However, it was not possible to just leave the North, which is currently fighting fierce battles with the Sobi Empire, so the command’s operations department deployed the 6th Corps, which is mostly made up of new recruits, to the North, which is ‘relatively less important and less dangerous’. .
Due to coincidental consumption, he suffered a devastating defeat in an encounter with the Empire’s detachment.
The former corps commander did his best, but victory was not something that could be achieved through hard work alone.
Soldiers with a relatively low understanding of training as they are made up of recruits.
Supply and fire support, which were always lacking because of their low importance.
Even the command, which had a conflict of opinion with the Northern Command of Polania, with an understanding of the unfamiliar battlefield.
Even if you only have one, your fighting power will drop sharply, but the three times are perfectly matched.
It was only natural that bad results would come out. It’s a miracle that the front line didn’t collapse in that situation and that the Legion’s strength was intact.
“First of all, let’s tear down the artillery corps and fix it. Now that the front lines on the Reinhardt side have withdrawn, there must be a lot of supplies lying around now.”
Even for the 87th Rapid Response Division, which Enoch was in charge of right now, it was the mobile brigades that faced the enemy that needed reorganization.
In the case of the divisional tank battalion, anti-tank mage battalion, and artillery regiment, which suffered relatively little damage, there were still plenty of supplies left.
“Hey, let’s get some supplies from the 5th Legion.”
“Oh, no…… Even the lieutenant commander has this procedure…….”
“I heard you turn off the lights immediately. Does it make sense that the fireman came and they didn’t give you a water cannon to put out the fire?”
As was the case with the formation of the 7th brigade and the 87th division in the past, Enoch Levandel went into blackmail against the headquarters’ personnel department and logistics department.
In the name of reorganization, elite soldiers and equipment from other units who were taking a break were quickly kidnapped.
“Didn’t you say that there is no need to go to the front now!!!”
“I’m sorry…… But what can I do when the commander of the corps asks me to?”
“Damn it!!!”
“I was relieved of my stress by the imperial army.”
It wasn’t just the equipment or manpower of the units in the process of his reorganization that Enoch Levandel slurped and gobbled up.
New weapons that were just being produced and deployed, starting with personal friendship with Pedro Munitions Corporation, the largest arsenal in Uk ran located in the Bjartok territory, were no exception.
“Shakov industrial stock, you know without saying, right?”
“Is it possible or not? Instead, what can I do about being criticized by the supply department?”
“Just pick it up and pay it back. If you pick it up and pay it back.”
The weapon newly assigned to Enoch Levandel’s 6th Corps was a self-propelled howitzer with a 105mm howitzer suspended from the chassis of a Dussaeng tank.
A total of 12 armored artillery units arrived at the headquarters of the 6th Corps.
The 912th Artillery Battalion, which had shown remarkable results in the last battle, was reorganized into an armored artillery battalion to reinforce the artillery power of the corps.
“Gentlemen, do you know what the characteristics of the Soviet Empire are?”
“Overwhelming manpower.”
“Yes. That undead-like vitality that continues to attack even after being wiped out. That is the biggest organ the Imperial Army has in consumption.”
The great army does not need special strategy.
In the Aros Campaign, which is considered the most terrible and bloody battle even within the Uk ranian army, the defense line of the Uk ranian-Pollania Allied Forces was helplessly collapsed by Reinhalt’s overwhelming numbers.
However, the Soviet Empire had man-power that doubled that of Reinhalt.
If Sobie Imperial forces were in charge of attacking all of Aros, they would not have been able to withstand even the four-layered defense line and would have been pushed back.
“But we can’t have that much manpower… ….”
The personnel officer of the corps staff bit his lip in resentment.
In fact, starting with civil war, Uk ran was the first country in the entire continent to enter into a special state of war.
Ever since the days of the principality, the Uk ranians had an excessively bloated army compared to the size of the country.
It was in a state of fruitless chaff, but anyway, even such Uk ranians were struggling to secure troops.
“No. So you guys are defeated.”
Lieutenant General Enoch Levandell added, placing his hand on the shoulder of the personnel officer.
“If we don’t have manpower, we can pour in more firepower. Hit the most powerful firepower in the most efficient location. Because that is the only way to gain an advantage against an overwhelming force.”
More firepower!
More Artillery!
“Our corps will form the first armored field artillery corps for the first time in the entire army, no, the world.”
It was the launch of the 6th Armored Field Artillery Corps.

“Comrade Chairman. People’s dissatisfaction is piercing the sky.”
“I know. It’s not enough that we started a war without a justification and lost, and Polania, who was one step below us, was stabbed in the back, so it’s only natural that the public sentiment is shaken.”
The head of Red October, Vladimir Trotsky, said with a bitter smile.
It’s a little hard to say this with his own mouth as the leader of the nation, but the people have really been foolish in their consumption so far.
It was good enough to overthrow the tyrannical former emperor’s family. But now that history is repeating itself, the people of the empire have chosen silence.
This was the reason why the approval rating of Red October, which was clearly in conflict with the current imperial family, was not so high.
I understand. Human beings naturally want to remain in a familiar environment.
But now things have changed. The sons of the empire died meaninglessly in a strange land.
It would have been different if the result of the shedding of blood had been a victory report for the cheeky fledgling kingdom, but the report cards accepted by the empire were nothing more than rubbish stained with red blood.
There is no honor or glory.
The ‘General Information Bureau’, the emperor’s sword that was used for civilian surveillance and suppression.
Especially after the imperial guillotine, which was the center of all the terror, was killed at the hands of a Uk ranian hero who appeared like a comet, the discontent that spread among the citizens could not be controlled.
In addition, the purge of the emperor, who was dissatisfied with the existing military, was being carried out, and the perception of the people was gradually changing.
There were some really corrupt people among the purges, but most of them were innocent—- just those who kept their convictions.
If you think about it, the Pyotr family has always been like that.
Allerus Pyotr, former emperor and onetime soulmate of Trotsky, was the first to throw himself out as soon as he seized power.
If it had not been for the sacrifices and warnings of other comrades who foresaw his threat.
Trotsky would not have been able to reconcile with the dew of his execution and continue the struggle for the eternal liberation of the people.
And Konstantin Pyotr looked exactly like his father.
“Anyway, any contact from the commander of the Southwest Army Group, Radia Khrushchev?”
“It’s a red flag.”
“I see.”
However, it was rather good news for Trotsky, who opposed the imperial family. The stronger the antipathy against the current emperor, the stronger the momentum of Red October.
Through the Great Purge, the generals who had skills but did not like them were replaced together, and their subordinates were also punished.
The military immediately bowed their heads and knelt in front of the emperor, but even the emperor could not see the expression of the man who had his head on the ground.
In the aftermath of the Great Purge, the chronic ‘corruption’ problem of the Imperial Army may have been temporarily resolved, but the anger of those who lost their comrades who fought together and built a trusting relationship overnight cannot be resolved.
“I received an accurate plan of operation from King Orlando I of Uk ran. Enoch Levandel, who once again wrote a myth against the Reinhalt Empire in the south, has now come up to the north.”
“That is really good news.”
“With an undefeated hero who only exists in mythology, this revolution will surely succeed.”
Vladimir Trotsky put a pipe in his mouth and lit it. As soon as I opened my mouth, smoke flowed out.
“Revolution Day is August 20th. The boring summer will be over by that time, so shouldn’t we also say goodbye to the tough bad relationship?”
“I will pass it on to my revolutionary comrades.”
Now it was right in front of me.
I will bring out that abominable emperor and finally return this country to the passionate red people.
