Chapter 58: Rejection
Tick Tick –
Time passed slowly, and it was already 22:00 in the evening.
If put in the usual.
The regimental commander, Ganser, and the chief of staff, Claire, must have finished their daily routine work and entered the rest period.
But today is different.
They received an application from Vega, which was an application for a guerrilla mission.
If it was an application from an ordinary officer, they would have rejected it outright, because the brigade headquarters did not impose a hard target on the 3rd Regiment for guerrilla missions, and such tasks were mainly entrusted to a small group of cannon fodder units that had not yet been withdrawn along the border line.
The first is, of course, to paralyze the kingdom army, and the second is that the empire does not want to cause unnecessary losses.
In the case of the 2 Brigade to which they belong, this task indicator is generally assigned to the 4 Regiment.
But this time the person who wrote the application was Vega.
Vega is a favored officer of the military department and the holder of the Wings of the Empire, which makes them have to think carefully about whether they want to meet Vega's demands. After all, the military department sent the holder of the Wings of the Empire to the border, instead of throwing it to the officer school in the rear to study, which was originally intended to fully exert his combat capabilities.
If they hinder Vega's enthusiasm for fighting.
This did not match the original intention of the military department, so the two fell into hesitation.
Sassy and sassy.
The cold wind blows the curtains.
Realizing that he could no longer hesitate, the regimental commander Ganse picked up the seal of 'permission' and tried to stamp it on the application, but when it actually landed 5 centimeters away from the application, it stopped in mid-air.
"Still can't make up your mind?"
Regiment Commander Ganse put down the seal again, and then looked towards the chief of staff: "We have been partners for so many years, just say what you have any suggestions, I am indeed hesitant." ”
"As far as common sense is concerned, of course, we should try our best to meet the requirements of the people who are optimistic about the military department, after all, this request is not excessive, and after the perfect completion of the guerrilla mission, it can also indirectly show that you are well led. ”
Chief of Staff Claire tightened her neckline and continued: "But the division headquarters is evaluating where you are promoted, at this juncture, not seeking merit but seeking no fault, Ensign Vega can complete the task perfectly is naturally the icing on the cake, once you fail, I am afraid that it will indirectly affect the division headquarters's evaluation of you." ”
That's why I hesitated. ”
Regiment Commander Ganse rubbed his temples painfully, on one side was his optimistic subordinates, and on the other hand, it was just in time for the critical period assessed by the division headquarters, if something went wrong at this time, it might affect him and Claire's promotion.
That's when it happened.
Claire pressed the unburned cigar into the ashtray.
Then he exhaled a puff of smoke and said: "Ganse, you must know that people do not destroy the heavens and the earth for themselves, if you really want to train the second lieutenant Vega, you might as well wait for the evaluation of the division headquarters to end, and then slowly compensate." ”
There was silence for a second.
The head of the regiment, Ganse, did not answer, but did not hesitate to put down the seal of 'permission', picked up a seal next to him and stamped the word 'rejection' on Vega's application.
————
The next day.
The adjutant returned to the watchtower with the letter.
He didn't know the contents of the letter, but when he handed it to Vega, he was keenly aware of the anger in Vega's eyes.
The application was denied.
Vega never thought of such a simple request, and the regimental headquarters actually did not allow it.
You must know that with the influence and evaluation of the Order of the Wings of the Empire in the army, even if he did not apply for this kind of mixed military merit in person, it would probably fall on his head, but after he applied, the regimental headquarters actually rejected it directly, is this an intention to hide him?
At all costs.
He needs to participate in guerrilla missions, and if he doesn't become a magician, he doesn't feel safe for a day.
Since the application could not be done, he was ready to go to the regiment headquarters to inquire in person.
Although this will violate the regulations of the highest commander of the watchtower not to leave his post without permission to a certain extent, and even the evaluation of the regimental headquarters will be reduced, but he can no longer control so much, no matter what, he must become a magician as soon as possible. And as the holder of the Order of the Wings of the Empire, it's just that no one will go into such a small mistake.
Vega said to Adjutant Char: "Adjutant, I need to go to the regimental headquarters in person, and the affairs of the sentry tower will be temporarily entrusted to the deputy company commander, and you will convey the order on my behalf." ”
"Yes, Company Commander. ”
After the adjutant disappeared, Vega tidied up his uniform a little, and then headed for the regimental headquarters.
About two hours later.
Vega got his wish and went to the regimental headquarters, and was led by the soldiers to the gate of the regimental staff tent.
Before he could enter it, though, he heard a roar.
"Ganse, you bastard. ”
An angry voice came out of the door: "Do you think that if you want to be promoted, you will look down on my old friend? It's just that recently, our 4th Regiment was accidentally hunted by the mages of the Kingdom Army and killed several professionals, resulting in a shortage of good manpower, and borrowed a few professionals from you to carry out guerrilla missions, are you so stingy?"
"Kiel, calm down. ”
The regiment commander's rather helpless voice came: "It's not that I don't help you, which officer doesn't know that your 4th Regiment is a cannon fodder regiment that has not yet withdrawn to Kareni, you go out and ask casually, which professional is willing to take care of your group of unorganized, undisciplined, and incapable soldiers." Although no one disobeyed the mandatory order, as the commander of the regiment, I always had to take care of the feelings of my subordinates. ”
Bang.
Vega didn't have to guess to know that it was the sound of slapping the table: "This is just your rhetoric, I don't believe that there is no professional in your regiment who is willing to earn such a white military exploit." ”
"Kiel, if you put it in the past, of course you would have flocked to it. ”
The voice of the regimental staff officer became a little crying and laughing: "But you also said that the defense level of the United Kingdom has risen a lot recently, and even 70 percent of the professionals of the Kingdom Army can be bumped into when carrying out guerrilla missions. Military feats are indeed tempting, but they also have to come back alive. In particular, the evaluation of cannon fodder units in the army could not be lower, and if it were not a mandatory order, I am afraid that no officer would be willing to command a group of ruffians. ”
"Enough. ”
An angry voice came: "Speaking of which, it's not like you're about to be promoted, look down on me as an old friend!"
"So be it. ”
The regiment commander finally sighed helplessly: "You can ask any officer in the regiment for advice, and if they are willing to be seconded to your unit to participate in guerrilla missions, I will definitely not object." Of course, the premise is that coercion and inducement are not allowed, and the secondment period cannot exceed one month. ”
There was a pause.
Regiment Commander Ganser continued: "If there is really an officer who is willing to be seconded to your unit, although it is true that it still belongs to the 3rd Regiment in terms of personnel, whether it is merit or fault, all the responsibility will be borne by the 4th Regiment, and I need you to write a letter of commitment." ”
"Hahaha, it's a word. ”
The rough voice echoed throughout the regiment headquarters: "Ganse, when the time comes, I will dig up the professionals of your 3rd regiment, don't regret it." ”
"If you dig it up, go ahead. The confident voice of the regimental commander, Ganser, drowned out Kiel's gruff voice.
