Rebirth: Romania Rising

"What Victor means is that we should be the vanguard together? Be the first to charge into the battle?"

A moment later, when Victor finished speaking his thoughts, Alexei stared into Victor's eyes, very surprised.Anton also widened his eyes: "Isn't this very dangerous, but if it is very dangerous, it would be very uneconomical if we lose our lives."

"If so, it is indeed very dangerous. But in this war, not only Bulgaria, but also several neighboring countries are involved."

Victor explained: "Everyone knows more or less that since the temporary truce in the Balkan War just now, the three alliances of Bulgaria, Serbia, and Greece have been fighting among themselves all the time. They all think that they have contributed the most and gained the most credit. Not satisfied with the current carve-up results... and Romania only needs to enter the war at a delicate moment, no matter which team it is, it can fight a clean and beautiful fast battle by surprise."

"Nowadays, the Balkan Alliance exists in name only. It is an empty shell with no rules and order. The member states have turned against each other and are preparing for another fight. Serbia, Greece and Bulgaria will definitely intend to win over Romania."

After Victor explained the situation, he said to Alexei and Anton: "And I am sure that Romania will not be able to obtain South Dobroga this time, and will definitely join the anti-Bulgarian alliance composed of Serbia and Greece in the future. By then Bulgaria It is the embarrassing situation of facing siege from three sides and being passively beaten.

In this way, the Romanian army can easily crush Bulgaria with an absolute numerical advantage, then occupy South Dobroga, and then annex this rich area.As soldiers, we not only get a reward, but also have the opportunity to stay on the security side of South Dobroga. Isn’t it wonderful? "

Part of the reason why he was so sure and had such an idea was that the original owner in history really made his fortune like this.

Of course, Victor still has his own considerations. Nandobroga can be either big or small. By then, he can become a peace officer, govern this hundreds of miles of land, command the army, maintain public order, coordinate with civil servants, and have responsibilities. It's very heavy and carries quite a bit of risk.In addition, I am not familiar with the place, so if I go to South Dobroga alone, I will inevitably feel a little uneasy. It will be very different if I can get an acquaintance to be my right-hand man.

"If you don't want to be mediocre, then come with me for another adventure. It was training before, but this time it's a war. You might as well give it a try!"

After hearing Victor's "bold idea", Alexey and Anton looked at each other, both eager to give it a try.

They thought the same thing as Victor. They still felt somewhat sorry for themselves in the face of the war, but they believed Victor and believed in what Victor said.

After all, as long as Victor directs them, no matter if they train together, they can get the first place in the competition, or they can be the first to arrest the Bakur gang in the smuggling case, and get money and military honors.He is truly a rare noble person in this life. If possible, of course I hope that Victor will continue to lead the two of them.

Now, there happens to be an opportunity!Nanandobroga has the mouth of the Danube River and a natural harbor. It has convenient transportation and is not far away from home. It is also convenient to take a boat or a train. It can be reached in a day or two.And when the time comes to become a peace officer, although they are not as generous as civil servants, they can still receive a salary. In addition, officials have a higher status than ordinary people, so they can hold their heads high in front of their hometown.

But the two of them also have their own hesitations. As for Anton, he is worried about the risks of participating in the war. He also has elderly parents, wife and children at home. If something unexpected happens... Victor does not dare to think about it, and Anton himself I, perhaps, would rather just farm in the village.

Alexei is a very aggressive, yet somewhat careless person. The riskier the job, the more exciting he feels.But fighting is not a child's play. Maybe you will fail to achieve military success and lose your life instead.Most likely his parents would not agree to this matter.

Victor saw the hesitation of the two of them and took a step back: "I am too reckless for this kind of thing. I only think about what we can do together and forget about other aspects..."

"Victor, brother, I'm going to do it with you!"

But Alexey slapped his thigh. Those problems were nothing compared to the friendship of comrades and Victor's wise command!

He stood up and said: "When I go back to convince my parents, I will go to the army to apply with you. A real man should charge into battle, make contributions and honor his ancestors. Victor said it is a great opportunity, so how can I still hesitate?!"

"Well said, I'll do it too!"

After Anton thought for a moment, he also stood up and said: "Although I, Anton, have no ability and no education, I can still be a big-headed soldier. I will do whatever the commander asks me to do. Even if there are risks, as long as With Chief Victor sitting in charge, I am not afraid. I believe that Victor can lead us to victory one after another! I hope Chief Victor will not think I am useless, I, I am also willing to give it a try!"

"it is good!"

Victor suddenly became excited. He patted the two of them and laughed: "Then it's settled. After you go back, you can have fun and relax. When you return to the military camp, you two must adapt to training as soon as possible and do your best on the battlefield. And we are destined to conquer Bulgaria, and when the time comes, we will see the vanguard again!"

The palms of the three people touched together and they high-fived each other!

"See you soon!"

……

The speeding train arrived at the station. After saying goodbye to Alexey and Anton at the three-way intersection, Victor returned to their respective homes in Jinshui Township.

Unlike Victor, Alexey lives in the county town, but it is located in the suburbs, between urban and rural areas. His family's land is in the countryside. He used to work as a policeman in the city and would return to the countryside to help during busy farming seasons.

When Alexey came to the county town, two men in police uniforms were squatting by the wall to bask in the sun. When they saw Alexey coming from a distance, the two men shouted. "Isn't this Alexei! He's back?"

Alexei knew them. These two were former police colleagues and his former childhood playmates. When they were young, there was no farm work, so they hung out together. If it weren't for following Victor to join the army, Alexei would probably still be there now. One of them.

The two men came up to them, their faces full of banter. One of them smiled and said: "Alexei, are you back from serving? A few days ago, officials from the county came to check your household registration information. We thought you had committed a crime and were arrested." He’s caught, the officials are checking his identity.”

Another person also pretended to be mysterious and said: "Those bureaucrats with extraordinary airs also asked you whether there are any criminal records in your files.

But when you were 13 years old, you made an appointment with me and I to secretly dig potatoes from the village chief’s house and concealed it... Let’s just say that brothers are not just brothers! "

"Go, go, go!" Alexey was so angry that just because of those wrinkled potatoes, the village chief came to his father and talked about the philosophy of life. After hearing what the old guy said, his father almost didn't interrupt. his legs.

This incident became known to everyone in the village. Fortunately, the village chief did not hold grudges and did not report the naughty children to the police station. Otherwise, Alexei and the three of them would be considered "underage", but their files would still be there. Criminal records and military service all have an impact.

Originally, Alexei, like these two, had a narrow vision and was trapped in a small county town all his life.But since he returned from joining the army, he thinks he is different!

He coughed and said to the two of them: "You two really don't know something. Those bureaucrats came to check my files not only to punish me, but to reward me for my military merits!"

As he spoke, he suddenly tore open the tightly sewn pocket, only to see that it was filled to the brim, and it was all filled with big bills!This scene was quite shocking at first glance, and the two bad friends were astonished as expected.

One of them shouted: "Alexei, please tell the truth, did you go to the army and steal firearms to sell them for money? This is an illegal act. Come on, follow me and surrender!"

The other one was even more outrageous: "Alexei, I'm afraid you became a spy for a foreign country and took money from gringos. You joined the army specifically to gather information and then sold it to foreign countries, so you made a lot of money..."

"Get out of here, damn it! You two know stereotypes and use yourself to judge others. It makes me so angry! This is obviously a bonus I got for meritorious service!"

Alexey screamed in anger, and the two bad friends became curious, so they found a random step to sit on and started talking.Alexey showed off the bragging attitude he used to have when he was a child, and told all about how he and his commander Victor competed in formation to win the championship, how they forced the commander away, and how they defeated the Bakur Gang. .

Alexei's eloquence was very good. During the narration, at every exciting moment, the two young people exclaimed repeatedly. Alexei sometimes paused deliberately and glanced at the crowd triumphantly, giving them endless admiration. The space for imagination whets the appetite.
