"By the way, how many people are there in your division?" Sokov finally asked: "I heard that the structure of the Romanian army is based on the German army. A full division has 17,500 people. Am I right?"
"That's right, Mr. General." Ephraim nodded and said in a positive tone: "According to the original troop establishment, each division did have 17,500 people. But with the losses of our army on the battlefield, the surviving or rebuilt divisions , the number of soldiers has been greatly reduced. For example, our division now has only more than 6,000 people, which is equivalent to one-third of the original number."
After hearing this, Sokov began to mutter in his heart: "During the combat deployment, when we learned that the enemy on the opposite side was the Romanian army, we usually calculated it based on 17,500 troops. Now it seems that after a long battle, Romania can organize There are fewer and fewer young adults in the army, so the size of the army has to be reduced."
"Lieutenant Efrem." Sokov said to Efrem: "Our negotiations are over. You should go back as soon as possible to report the results of our negotiations to your division commander. If you are willing to accept our army's proposal, stationed in Chel Novtse’s troops will advance towards Otats in a short time.”
After receiving Sokov's promise, Efrem, filled with joy, couldn't wait to return to Otac, preparing to report the results of the negotiations to division commander Antonetta.
"Mr. Division Commander, good news, good news." As soon as he walked into the division headquarters, Ephraim said to Antonetta excitedly: "There is great news."
"Lieutenant Ephraim," Dinu saw Lieutenant Ephraim being so excited and knew that this negotiation must have unexpected gains, so he asked tentatively: "Do you have any good news to tell us?"
"Yes, Mr. Chief of Staff." Ephraim said happily: "This negotiation can be said to be unprecedentedly smooth."
"Oh, what a smooth way, you might as well tell us." When Dinu said this, his eyes unconsciously glanced at Antonetta sitting behind the desk: "Have the Russians agreed to our request? "
"How should I put it?" Ephraim said hesitantly: "Although they did not clearly indicate that they would accept our conditions, they actually agreed to all our requests."
"Lieutenant, what is going on?" Antonetta finally lost her temper after hearing this: "What on earth do you mean? I am confused."
"Yes, Lieutenant Ephraim, please tell us carefully what is going on." Dinu also echoed: "You talk like this without any end, and no one can understand what is going on." Something happened."
Eprem coughed twice, cleared his throat and said, "What the Russians mean is to defend Ortaz with us."
"Common defense?" Ephraim's words confused Antonetta and Dinu. Dinu knocked on the table twice with his hand and asked with a serious expression: "Lieutenant, what does this mean?"
"That is to say, the Russian army will officially enter Otac after the agreement is reached." Ephraim explained: "But they will not take any hostile actions against our troops in the city. The two sides will act like Like allies, let’s protect this city together.”
"Not taking any hostile action against our army?" Antonetta showed a contemptuous smile after hearing this: "Lieutenant Ephraim, I wonder what level the Russians who are negotiating with you are?"
Dinu heard the implication of Antonetta's words and felt that the Russians negotiating with Ephraim might be of too low a level and would just make up lies to deal with Ephraim. Then he asked tentatively: "I wonder what level the Russian with whom you are negotiating is. Is he the commander of the 130th Infantry Division stationed in Chernivtsi?"
"No, Mr. Chief of Staff." Ephraim shook his head and said, "It's not him."
"That's the commander of his team." Based on Ephraim's answer, Dinu judged that since the division commander was not involved in the negotiation in person, the person who could talk to Ephraim could only be the commander of the regiment below, or someone of higher rank. Lower Officer: "Or battalion commander or something. Am I right, Lieutenant Ephraim?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ephraim shaking his head desperately: "No, no, Mr. Chief of Staff. You guessed wrong. The person negotiating with me is not the division commander stationed in Chernivtsi. But General Sokov, the commander of the army group.”
Even if a cannonball landed in the room and exploded at this time, the shock it would bring would definitely not be comparable to what Ephraim said lightly, and the whole room fell into silence.
After an unknown amount of time, Dinu broke the silence in the room. With a voice that was somewhat hoarse due to excitement, he asked cautiously: "Lieutenant Ephraim, you just said that General Sokov, the commander of the 53rd Army, personally talked to you?"
"That's right, Mr. Chief of Staff." Ephraim nodded vigorously and replied in a positive tone: "That's true."
At this time Antonetta finally realized that what Ephraim said was true, and quickly asked: "Lieutenant, I wonder what General Sokov looks like?" Don't see that Sokov has a lot of popularity among the Germans. He is very famous, but not many people have seen him. Many German generals didn't even know what Sokov looked like, let alone Antonetta, who was just a commander of a slave country.
"Very young, very young." Ephraim replied cautiously: "I originally thought that a general with such a famous reputation would be at least forty years old. Unexpectedly, I was shocked when I saw him. , he is probably only in his twenties, and from the outside, he looks like an ordinary college student. No one would have thought that he was actually a powerful general."
"Lieutenant, what did you say?" Antonetta asked in surprise: "You mean General Sokov is just a young man in his twenties?"
"That's true." Ephraim said with an affirmative tone: "If I hadn't seen the officers in the headquarters with my own eyes, I would be so respectful to him, and I would have thought that he was just an ordinary college student who came to the front line through a relationship. Experience life." "By the way, how many people are there in your division?" Sokov finally asked: "I heard that the organization of the Romanian army is based on the German army. A full division has 17,500 people. I can tell you. Is it right?"
"That's right, Mr. General." Ephraim nodded and said in a positive tone: "According to the original troop establishment, each division did have 17,500 people. But with the losses of our army on the battlefield, the surviving or rebuilt divisions , the number of soldiers has been greatly reduced.
