Chapter 289: Raid (1)
On the night of 5 November, while Vienna was in turmoil over the sudden declaration of war by Romania, the county of Deva in Transylvania was still in a state of peace. Because it was the last stop in Austria-Hungary on the Bucharest-Bupace railway, its military status was revealed.
So in the county of Deva were stationed a Hungarian division (stationed in Deva), a Czech division (stationed in Petroshani, not far from the border), and an Upper Austrian infantry regiment (stationed in Ilir on the banks of the Muresh River).
As you can see from the map, the Czech division on the border is facing the Romanian Peak, while the Hungarian division at Deva is in reinforcement position, and the Austrian infantry regiment is the second target. Of course, this is on the map, this is a triangular formation to defend Romania, which also shows that the basic quality of the Austro-Hungarian commander is very qualified.
Now a thick night was covering the land, and most of the Czech division in Petroshanny was sleeping peacefully. The reason for their reassurance was that they had a tight guard on the border with Romania that could monitor movement at all times, especially since they had two companies of troops stationed as forward guards in the Dila Valley, which was located at the border route.
As one of the few major crossings in the Southern Carpathian Mountains, the Dila Valley is one of the few river valleys with fairly gentle undulations. The Dira River, which originates in Deva and flows through Trgužu into the Danube, makes it the only main route to cross Romania. Most of Romania's railways to Central Europe pass through here, so its location is crucial. It was also the only railway in Romania that could lead to Transylvania, and it was also crucial for the development of the future campaign.
On this cold winter night, a group of people wearing white concealment clothes are sneaking quietly in the river valley. Its ability to make no noise in the snow and its lean performance suggests that this is a specially trained army. The army stopped halfway through the valley because a small post appeared in front of it.
"Major, are you going to uproot this outpost or are we going to go there?"
At the front of the ranks, a young officer with the rank of captain asked a middle-aged man next to him, who was in his forties but still showed a strong aura. By the words of the captain officer, the middle-aged man was a major.
With the help of the moonlight in the snow, we can see that the captain who spoke is Captain Mizik, who previously served in the 19th Division. And the middle-aged strong man lying next to him would have known Sodavar and Nisidel if they were there, wasn't this the Varisi who they were instructors in the public back then, how did he become a major now?
This is a long story, when Varisi was seconded to the Volkswagen factory as an instructor because he had made mistakes in the army, and was later called back because of the needs of the army. However, his essence remains the same, and the credit he has made over the years for carrying out various dangerous missions has been offset by the mistakes he has made. So it has been more than ten years before he was promoted to the next level, which is still to see that he is old, and I am afraid that he will have difficulties in life after retirement in the future.
This time, because the task of raiding Petroshani was very important, Major Varisi, who was proficient in raiding, assassination, and explosions, came with a team of elite soldiers to ensure the completion of the mission. And Captain Mizik was transferred to Terguzhiu because of the 19th Division, and as the most capable company of the 19th Division, of course, good steel should be used on the blade. They cooperated with Major Warisi to take the lead in uprooting the sentry posts along the line, laying a solid foundation for the surprise attack of the main force.
It needs to be said that the troops that raided were not the 19th Division, which was stationed nearby in Terguzhu. Rather, in order to ensure a success rate, the 1st Janissary Division, which is located 60 kilometers behind Craiova as a surprise force, will be stationed as a raiding force. Through these painstaking 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 outpost, there are no more than fifteen people in it, and now there is a secret outpost outside the outpost, in addition to an open outpost, there is also a secret outpost, that is, in the pile of grass next to the outpost, there should be two more people on duty in the sentry, or I will come."
As he was proficient in raiding, Major Varisi made a cursory observation before telling Captain Mizik beside him the result. This shocked Mizik, who did not expect that this Major Varisi could know so much through just a few glances.
Major Warisi ignored Mizik's shock, and casually pointed to two of his own team members, signaling them to solve the two light and dark sentry posts in front of him. I saw the two of them sneaking silently towards the sentry, and the two Austro-Hungarian soldiers were completely unaware of the danger coming, and still stared around blankly.
At this time, the two elite raiders pounced on the two Austro-Hungarian soldiers, then covered their mouths and stabbed them in the heart. I saw that the two Austro-Hungarian soldiers began to struggle on all fours, but they were held down by the two team members, and after struggling for ten seconds, the two soldiers did not move. At this time, Major Varisi slowly approached with the rest of the team, and Captain Mizik followed with his own team.
"How. Do you need to be taught to solve it? ”
As Captain Mizik led the men over, Major Varisi asked quietly pointing to the outpost.
In the face of Varisi's inquiry, he knew that Major Varisi had already solved the most difficult outpost, 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 sentry.
And the deputy, who had remained outside and was familiar with Major Vasily, asked him curiously. "Major, how can you be so nice to this captain?"
Faced with the inquiry of his deputy, Major Vasily said with a smile. "The main thing is that I think his personality is compatible with me and I want to give him a chance."
Faced with the major's rhetoric, the deputy did not continue to ask. However, he was also interested in this Captain Mizik, and he planned to take a closer look at what this captain could rely on to win the attention of Major Varisi, the most famous in the country for skirmishes.
Five minutes later, Captain Mizik walked out of the post with his men. By the faint red spots on the sleeves of its players, it is known that the problem has been solved.
"Keep on your way."
Major Varisi, regardless of the suitability of Mizik's people, opened his mouth and continued on his way. Because this is the first sentry they have solved, they have a heavy task tonight, and they still need to solve three such class sentry posts. And more importantly, they also need to raid the station where two companies are stationed to lay a good foundation for the troops behind. (https:)
