1 lieutenant colonel.

The pronunciation of winding on the tongue is unfamiliar.

For a while, I probably won't be able to respond properly even if I listen to it. I wonder if that's the right thing to call me.

“Loyalty! 1st Company Captain!”

“Yeah, well done.”

"Yes!"

He even shook hands with Lieutenant Colonel Na Young-tae once and left the battalion commander's office.

He was still stunned, but he quickly shook it off.

The road to go is Taesan, but I can't stay like this.

We must quickly transform into company commander Choi Do-jin instead of platoon leader Choi Do-jin.

at that time.

"uh… … Operation Commander.”

I met Lieutenant Young So-jin in the hallway.

There seems to be a job at the wife-in-law, but now it's over.

“Loyalty! You must have been there first.”

“Loyalty. Yes. This is the way I went and now I am coming out.”

Because we were in the military, we respected each other.

Lieutenant Young So-jin is much faster than me in terms of the military number.

than that.

“Then you are now the 1st company commander?”

"Hahaha. Yes that's right."

"congratulations."

Just one word to say congratulations.

You should be able to say thank you.

Strangely, the lips don't come off well.

Cold sweat seems to flow from the temple.

ahhh

Don't tease me, Dojin-ah.

"Perhaps… … What are you doing?”

Lieutenant Young So-jin's eyes seemed to see it too. He tilts his head slightly.

I quickly opened my mouth.

"no. Nothing happens.”

“Something seems a bit strange… … Or it's done. Loyalty.”

Lieutenant Young So-jin salutes again and moves to the battalion commander's room.

I stared at his back for a moment, then stepped behind him and back to the other side.

under.

Next time, never do it like you just did.

Shaking his head vigorously, he exited the headquarters building.

And headed to the 1st company building.

Originally, I would have gone straight to the 1st platoon commander's room.

But now... …

[1st Company Commander's Office]

This is my office.

‘Is this a dream or is it real?’

It hurts when I pinch my cheek.

It's definitely not a dream.

He smiled and went inside.

The inside was very spacious.

Almost twice the size of the platoon leader's room, there was also a separate conference room on one side.

On the wall were the annual training schedule and the company training log.

I stood in front of the door for a while, looked around them, and sat down at my desk.

The 2nd Company commander was temporarily guarding this position, and his traces were everywhere.

Soon, my mother-of-pearl will be hung over this place.

It was time to think.

“Loyalty!”

“Uh, 1st platoon… … No, should I call you 1st Company Commander now?”

The 2nd lieutenant came in.

“Did you hear it already?”

“The battalion commander called directly. Please take good care of the 1st company commander.”

“Oh, you did.”

“You can take over from me. I'm not the person who was originally there, so I won't be able to do it perfectly, but I'll tell you everything I know to the best of my knowledge."

After all, all the job of the lieutenant general is there.

It doesn't really matter if you get it from the 2nd squadron commander.

“Okay, just open the drawer.”

“A drawer?”

“It will contain a nice ornament.”

fancy ornaments?

“Check it out. I need to say hello to the crew members.”

“Oh, yep! Loyalty!”

With the 2nd company commander leaving the office behind, he opened the desk drawer.

and.

I found a shiny object.

‘… … You have prepared in advance.’

It was my mother-of-pearl.

Dojin Choi.

And the rank of captain was engraved in fancy letters.

‘… … .'

If I hadn't stayed here, it would have been thrown away as it is.

Knowing that, you have prepared this in advance.

This is the part where you can see how much Lieutenant Colonel Na Young-tae thinks of me.

I clenched my fists.

and promised

While I'm sitting here, I'll try my best and do my best.

* * *

I left the office and moved to the training center outside the company building.

The company members gathered in one place for morning training.

In front of him stood the deputy platoon commanders and platoon commanders.

It seems that the news has already been delivered here.

“Loyalty! The company commander is here!”

The commander's voice is immediately heard.

It is still an unfamiliar name.

I coughed in vain and answered.

“Oh, loyalty.”

After greeting the officers, I stood in front of the soldiers.

For some reason, the back of my head was itchy, so I looked around for a moment, and Wang Seong-bae was looking at me with a dissatisfied face.

I think I know something about that feeling.

Obviously I started on the same line, but I was still the deputy platoon commander, while I was the company commander.

that would be annoying

If it had been someone else, there would have been a little bit of apologetic aspect.

But I'm not sorry at all because it's the Royal Grail.

It's not the first time he's secretly ridiculed me.

I turned my head again.

And I met with the crew.

“Everyone is nice.”

"Hello!"

When I say hello, the company members just say hello, and even this is unfamiliar.

It will take a few days to get used to.

He cleared his voice and spoke again.

“I met you as a platoon commander a while ago, but today I met you as a company commander.”

"Congratulations!"

“No, no. I didn't mean to congratulate you."

I waved my hands up and down and continued speaking.

“I want to say good luck in the future.”

“We wish you well too!”

The company members answered loudly as if they had promised in advance.

I guess I haven't been able to work as an executive until now. Seeing you do so well.

“We will share our greetings later after the inauguration ceremony is over, and let’s start our work from now on.”

"Yes!"

We started our daily routine in earnest with our palms facing each other.

There was nothing special.

It was a job to move to a training dungeon within the premises, enter there and catch a monster.

The job itself is definitely nothing special.

It wasn't like that for me.

I was a little nervous.

“It won’t be difficult. You just have to think that the number of soldiers you lead has increased.”

"Yes."

“But a more detailed direction would be needed. You have to coordinate the whole thing.”

"all right."

The 2nd company commander, who participated in the training together, told me everything I had to do, down to the smallest detail.

I couldn't be more grateful for that.

The 2nd company commander must also be busy taking care of his company.

When should I serve dinner?

- Please report the current situation of each platoon.

― The 1st platoon has moved to the rear and is waiting.

― The 2nd Platoon is searching the area.

― The 3rd platoon is waiting at the flank.

Thanks to the 2nd company commander, the training went smoothly.

Since I had already worked as a platoon leader, I could see how things were going without even looking at them.

The problem was after entering the battle.

- Attack all at once.

- Yes!

Because the scale is different, I had a hard time understanding where to start and what to focus on.

But it was only at first.

The 2nd company commander continued to support me, and it wasn't that big in the first place.

Operation to retake Jeju Island.

There, as many as 3,000 people fought at once.

At that time, I was not in a position to command, but to go out and fight, but anyway.

There was no problem with the size.

“Keep attacking!”

"Yes!"

In order to prepare for any unforeseen circumstances, I also immediately went to the front line.

Numerous monsters.

The company members were wielding swords against him.

If I step out, everything will be sorted out at once, but now is not the time to develop my stats or skills.

It's time to develop your skills as a company commander.

“When time runs out, monsters regenerate! Let’s get this sorted out quickly!”

"Yes!"

successive battles.

In the midst of that, I continued to develop my abilities as a company commander.

* * *

time was short.

I realized that as I took on the position of company commander.

“Captain Choi, you look like a company commander now.”

“Thank you, battalion commander.”

It's been a week since I was promoted to 1st Company.

Gradually, he began to get used to the job of a company commander.

It was the same when training.

I had a sense of how to move the soldiers in this situation and in that situation.

“Now, should I put it into practice?”

"Yes."It was soon put into practice.

It's not that they didn't mobilize for a full month, but this was the first time they took the entire company out.

“All the gates in the Sindang Station area have been cleaned up. All of the dispatched personnel returned as they were, and there were no injuries.”

"great job. Even though it was my first performance, it was great.”

The result could be known just by looking at the reaction of Lieutenant Colonel Na Young-tae.

Very good.

Clearing all the gates was also clearing up, but for the first time, there were zero injuries.

I mean, I was good at directing.

Of course, you can't stay here.

This is because the grade of the gate wasn't that high, and now it's a step forward.

We must continue to do well in the future.

“You know that the company commander training starts next week, right? Go and get it.”

“Yes, battalion commander.”

Starting with the tactics textbook, I hold and read several of the company commander-related textbooks a day.

However, the company commander education is a process that informs them in more detail.

From my point of view, I absolutely have to listen.

It will be of some help when I go to the Special Forces later and perform the role of team leader.

“From now on, we will start training for company commanders in the fourth quarter of 2042.”

So I spent another week and headed to Satan.

The atmosphere was similar to that of professional officer training.

From the instructors to tactics and command, he received training from the part to managing the soldiers.

The duration is one week.

It was enough time to fill in the missing parts.

“Loyalty! The 1st Company Commander is back!”

“Is that time already? It was hard.”

"no!"

A week later, he returned to the unit.

There was no significant change in work or duties.

That was before I went.

Instead, I was a little different.

“The 1st Company Commander, after receiving training, it became better to lead the soldiers. My ability to deal with any situation has improved.”

It's not just that Lieutenant Colonel Na Young-tae said so.

Skills were also revealed.

[The mastery of the command skill increases significantly!]

[The mastery of the command skill increases significantly!]

[The mastery of the command skill increases significantly!]

command.

The proficiency of that skill, which is the most important in the commander's position, has risen tremendously.

It didn't go up to the rank, but that would be a matter of time.

If this momentum.

My personal growth had to be slow.

Whether in training or combat, I spent more time in the command post than on the battlefield.

But it was satisfying.

What matters to me right now is how well you lead soldiers rather than personal growth.

And for personal growth, you have to set aside time to do it.

You can do it after work.

You can do it on the weekend.

time is plenty

"Sergeant Major... … Look at the sky. Garbage is pouring out.”

“Seeing that you call your eyes trash, I think you are now a military hunter too.”

It was around mid-November when I returned from training for a company commander, and it was snowing in the sky at some point.

Winter has already come.

― The following is news related to Hunter. It is said that the personnel change of Lieutenant General Yoo Kyung-pil, the hero of the Jeju Island recapture operation, has been decided. From June next year, he will become the commander of special warfare from the commander of Subangsa... … .

And at the end of December.

In earnest, reports began to appear about the reshuffle of Lieutenant General Yoo Kyung-pil.

So, unlike previous years, this winter was exceptionally pleasant.

It means that there is only half a year left until I become the team leader of the Special Warfare Command.
