The news that Petrilla's 2nd brigade encountered nearly 3 Austro-Hungarian divisions was besieged, and it soon reached Lieutenant General Ankodar. Unfortunately, he was discussing with Major General Dortrid on the issue of the offensive.

"what's happenin?"

Major General Dottried asked Lieutenant General Ankodar, who had just finished reading the telegram, and he had just noticed a trace of concern in the Lieutenant’s eyes.

Facing Major General Dortrid’s inquiry, Lieutenant General Ankodar did not hide it. "This is a telegram from Zoltan, the commander of my 2nd brigade, stating that he was attacked by the three Austro-Hungarian divisions."

Lieutenant General Ankodar’s words made Major General Dotrid’s heart tensed. The situation where a brigade was completely crushed against three divisions, the situation was already very bad.

Major General Dotrid asked tentatively. "Should we return to Petrosani and stick to it?"

Hearing Major General Dortrid's retreat, Lieutenant General Ankodar himself thought of a countermeasure. It was so unwilling to retreat to Ankodar himself, and finally saw an opportunity that he didn't want to pass through his hands in vain.

But now he needs to dispel Dortrid's retreat with a suitable reason. "It's not a good idea to go back now. If we go back, it will become five Austro-Hungarian divisions against our two divisions. It is equally difficult to fight, and our unauthorized attack will make us difficult in the future."

Dotrid fully understood what Ankodar had said, and the fact that the matter reached this point was completely caused by their unauthorized attack, but if it could be saved, he was also very willing. But the problem now is that if Petrosani is retaken by Austria-Hungary, their two divisions will be surrounded. Even if they can escape back to Romania, they are likely to go to a military court.

In the face of Ankodar, Dortrid also spoke out bluntly. "All this is based on our defense of Petrosani. If we are taken back by Austria-Hungary, we will be transferred to the reserve."

In addition, the worse result, Dortrid, does not say that Ankodar also understands, that is to order to retire. They are only in their 40s and 50s and can at least contribute more than ten years of energy to Romania in the military, and being ordered to retire is also a result that the two cannot bear.

But Ankodar's words dispelled Dortrid's pessimism. "Who said that we need to return to Petrosani, in fact, we can still use reinforcements."

Major General Dotrid understood what Lieutenant General Ankodar meant. "Are you going to send the Fifth Division of the follow-up reinforcements to Petrilla for rescue?"

"Yes it is."

The Fifth Division is a veteran Romanian army. Although it is not as famous as the Guards Division and the Third Division, it is also famous in the army. However, the General Staff Department also took into account the importance of Deva when formulating the plan, and they were all arranged elite troops (except for the 9th Division, because the resident is here in order not to arouse the vigilance of Austria-Hungary, and cannot be changed at will.).

The Fifth Division, as the first batch of reinforcements, is of course strong in combat effectiveness. What is more perfect is that Lieutenant General Ankodar is somewhat incredulous as the former commander of the Fifth Division, so asking for help should not be a big problem.

Lieutenant General Ankodar's words gave Major General Dortrid a lot of peace of mind, but he raised another question. "However, according to the schedule, it will take another day for the Fifth Division to reach Petrosani. Can your Second Brigade block the offensive of the three divisions?"

"Please don't worry about this. I don't dare to say too much. Let the 2 brigade defend for a day or two is still more than rubbing it."

Ankodar understands Dortrid’s concern that if the defensive forces do not wait for reinforcements then the result will be catastrophic, at least for them. However, he still has confidence in his 2nd brigade Ankodar, and it is not how long he is required to guard, how can he be called a guardian if he can't hold it for a day.

When solving the hidden dangers of their own back road, the two of course will not forget their original purpose.

"Then what shall we fight next?"

Major General Dortrid, who asked this, felt a little red on his cheeks. The performance of the 9th Division today made him lack the confidence to say this.

However, Lieutenant General Ankodar also knows the performance of 9 Yes today. Isn't it just that you haven't fought against the elite Austro-Hungarian troops? This is nothing. It will be good to sum up the experience and lessons next time. Ankedar was not in the mood to care about the status quo of the 9th Division, he spoke about it himself. "There is not much time left for us, and then we must take down Hateg as soon as possible."

Dotrid also understands what Ankerdal means, and this is to let everyone not be afraid of casualties. It seems that today's 9th battle makes Ankodar look a little bit overwhelmed, but Dortrid is a bit wronged in his heart. Conscience of Heaven and Earth, the 9th Division was one of the four newly reorganized divisions during the expansion. Although Dortrid, as the division commander during this period, was very tight in training, his training time lags behind other divisions by a lot. You must know that at most before, two divisions were organized and trained in one year. When it was their turn to form the 9th division, they had formed 4 divisions at the same time, so the quality of their officers was far inferior to the troops previously organized and trained.

Ankerdal thought for a while and wanted to continue. "Well, your 9th division is responsible for the main attack, and my first guard division is responsible for flanking. It makes me look like this elite Austro-Hungarian seventh division.

It seems that he still has some understanding of the situation of the 9th Division on the flanks. As long as the 9th Division continues to do flank cover, it is not very useful. Fortunately, the 35th Division that defended when the first defending division attacked the main position was miserable, so he planned to change it, and it was better to eat the hard bones by himself. Faced with this request from Lieutenant General Ankodar, Major General Dortrid could not ask for it, and of course he readily agreed.

The next step is of course to share the opponent’s information that you know with the opponent. Whether it is the 9th Division vs. the 7th Division on the defensive flank or the 35th Division, everyone knows more or less about the opponent’s style, technical and tactical level. Everyone can at least communicate with each other. Avoid a lot of losses.

At the same time, the Fifth Division, which has already arrived in Targuzhwu, is also undergoing final rest. It is not correct to say that it is the fifth division that has arrived at the fifth division of Targuriwu. Because currently only the fifth division brigade and the second regiment have arrived here, there is also a 75 artillery battalion in the artillery regiment, plus some military police officers and others from the division, which is less than five thousand troops.

However, this does not affect the feelings of Major General Fergus, the commander of the Fifth Division. He has already reported to Lieutenant General Ankodar on the front line, telling the other that the Fifth Division has arrived in Targuzhu. The implication is that there is no benefit. Everyone enjoyed it together, and at the same time he sent a report to General Salamik, the commander of the Army Group South, and reported his whereabouts.

Originally this was just a polite remark, but I didn't expect Lieutenant General Ankodar to really give him a big gift. Looking at the soldiers of the Fifth Division who kept walking out of the carriages on the platform in the station, Major General Fergus felt a little frustrated. What he holds in his hand is the telegram sent to him by Lieutenant General Ankodar~www.readwn.com~ In this telegram, Ankodar first compared the huge benefits of his plan, and then said about the current difficulties. , And finally put forward the hope that the Fifth Division will quickly reinforce the 2nd brigade in Petrila.

Seeing that his teacher had been thinking about it, the chief of staff who sent the telegram couldn't help asking. "How should we reply to Lieutenant General Ankodar?"

Upon hearing the inquiry from his chief of staff, Major General Fergus said with a mockery. "Others have sent the battle plan, can we still refuse it? Besides, I haven't seen them defending the 2nd brigade in Petrilla facing the offensive of the three divisions. We have to reinforce this time."

After understanding the meaning of his commander, the chief of staff sent a telegram to the front line of the First Division of the Imperial Guard. Seeing the departure of the Chief of Staff, Division Chief Fergus gave an order. "Record, order to leave the logistics unit, so the soldiers immediately prepared to pedal, we went to Petrosani. At the same time, we sent a report to the follow-up troops, telling them not to stay in Targuzhu for rest and go directly to Petrosani to fight. "

"Yes, I'm going to give orders now."

Commander Fergus watched the staff who gave his order leave, and put on a thick military coat and walked out of the station building. These soldiers will be on the battlefield tomorrow, he plans to go to the platform to see the status of his soldiers
