Another Day In The Battlefield 1 Chapter 1.3

However, high command ignored the turbulent situation and judged it to be simply,

resulting in Friedrich’s development to this place for a military training she did in the Officer Cadet School (OCS), a joint exercise with the military while keeping to his patrol route.

But after losing her chance to retreat to the rear lines, Friedrich was commissioned as a

Second Lieutenant after the exercise and deployed for combat

The call sign given to him was [Trooper 0019]. The sign “Trooper”, irked his, number in his squadron,

After receiving his call sign and officially joining the border garrison Friedrich

was assigned to the unit made up of the OSC training branch and local forces.

His first duty was a mandatory 48-hour standby order.

She thought she would be sent for

training as usual after the formation of the unit to confirm the team members response time and functionality, but he was forced to standby in full battle gear. That happened about 24 hours ago.

Following that, with a timing that would make the devil smile, emergency reports came from

the outpost at the frontlines.

They warned that there were signs of a

large-scale federation military invasion.

The changes in the Federation’s policies were what the Empire dreaded the most.

Due to the change in political regime and the installation of new leaders, the rise of nationalism demanded a huge shift in national policies.

To be honest, not just Friedrich, but everyone in the Empire’s military found ;it hard to understand why they chose this time to start a reckless military campaign.

Before they knew it, the Federation had already issued an ultimatum for the

Empire’s forces to withdraw, in lieu of a declaration of war.

They demanded for the Empire forces to leave their national borders within 24 hours.

The circumstances of the Federation weren’t something a mere Lieutenant could fathom. However, since border skirmishes were ‘politically sensitive’, it was obvious the Empire wanted to avoid war from officially breaking out.

But failing to see the facts for what they are would make them infamous in the history books.

The infamy of being known as idiots. Maybe the Federation had some strategy to seize

victory up their sleeves?

Although the Empire could not understand the objective and intent of the Federation,

they followed

The plans laid out by their country, mobilizing the cautious bureaucracy and military arm in preparations for the theoretical attack that might happen theoretically.

For Friedrich who was a cog in the war machine, he only did his job as expected of his pay grade.

At this point of time, he still thought optimistically that,

“Well, this is probably just a political maneuver.”

After all, the neighboring Union would probably object to military operations occurring so close to it and call for a ceasefire or restrain both sides through

intimidation.

The Kingdom and The Republic that gave aid to the Federation in the past would fear that their past efforts to help them would be lost and would stop the Federation’s suicidal campaign.

That’s right, this was what most of the soldiers thought would happen. After all, soldiers are all pragmatists.
