Arrival in the mountains

In the mountains of solitude, a group of about ten people were walking in zigzags. The atmosphere of the group was terrible, they had set off early to reach the mountain base quickly. But they got unexpected results on the way. They were struck by a shower of arrows, from which they could not at first guess where it came, but on the captain's shout they quickly began to form. We knew they were running away since the attack ended because it happens all the time. They used to attack like this all the time before they got tired of hit-and-run. When the post-attack check came, four soldiers were dead. When the captain looked at one of the dead soldiers, his heart was wrung and some memories flowed into his mind, but he immediately came to himself and,

"Take the dead soldiers on your backs, and we will zigzag in the same way. Let your ears, your feelings be in the mountains, "he pointed to the soldiers.

At first, the group of fourteen people was reduced to ten people, and before anyone even had time to get upset, they turned their attention to the mountains and slowly started on their way to the base. The captain was at the very back of the group, thinking about the dangers that could happen when his group and the pioneer began to come towards him. The pioneer told him that they were close to arriving at the base. After a few words, the captain took the lead of the group and,

"I don't want anyone to make a noise, everyone will enter the base like an attempted infiltration," he said, gathering soldiers around him.

The soldiers did not think much about why they would do such a thing, after all, it was not their job to think about it. The group quietly infiltrated the base, when they checked the soldiers on duty, they noticed that one person was sleeping.

The captain is angry, "First Lieutenant! I said.

The First lieutenant immediately came forward from the group by saluting, "Yes, sir!" When the captain's back is turned, "Gather everyone in the square, I will meet everyone." "Write down the identities of the dead soldiers in the notebook. And then it's close, "he told the arriving group. The first lieutenant and the soldiers in the group together, "Yes, sir!" When the soldiers shouted at the same time, the cold steam coming out of their mouths was obvious. When everyone started doing their jobs, the captain looked at the snowy mountains across the square with his back turned. Soon after, the captain heard a voice behind him,

First Lieutenant -"Sir, the soldiers have gathered in the square for work!"

First Lieutenant - "A First Lieutenant, three sergeants, and twenty-eight privates are here to carry out their orders and opinions!"

Captain-"You can take your place, the first lieutenant."

Then he turned and looked at the soldiers, they were all shivering with cold, and although he tried to restrain himself, he was shivering too. The mountains were very cold, their biggest enemy was none other than these mountains. His eyes were looking into the soldiers' eyes one by one, while at the same time he was moving between the rectangular rows of Decares that the soldiers had made. Everyone was wondering, it was written from the main base that the new commander would arrive, but not so soon. The other thought in their minds was the familiar soldier friend held by the two soldiers in front of them. Everyone here knew each other up to the ass, what else were they going to do that they didn't drink, they didn't drink and they couldn't walk anywhere. They were soldiers, and if everyone didn't love each other on this mountain where there were no gods, they would have sacrificed their lives for the man next to them. That's why their bond was stronger than usual.

Captain - "Hello, I'm Captain Kurt. He's in charge here, sir."

Soldiers - "Thank you!"

Captain -"Does anyone know why your friend is standing there?"

after waiting for a while, no one answered. The captain stood in front of the guilty soldier and asked,

Captain - "Do you have any idea why I'm keeping you apart from your friends?"

The guilty soldier bowed his head, as he had no face to answer. The captain anxiously,

Captain - "I'll tell you!! He was sleeping while his friend was on guard, and we killed him! then, while you were sleeping in their beds, we passed in front of you and cut their throats. A hill ended this way."

The captain took a deep breath and looked around, bowing his head to the person he was looking at. The more he saw this, the angrier he got.

Captain -"Did you fight heroically?!!?"

Captain - "No!! you died like a poor person, you died without being able to do anything."

The captain suddenly moved and stood in front of a soldier and asked,

Captain - "What's your name, soldier?"

The soldier -"Albert, sir!"

Captain - "I don't care! because you're dead, Albert! we killed you because your friend slept on duty!"

The captain moved towards the formation and directed a question to another soldier, Captain - "What's your name, soldier?"

The soldier -"John, sir!"

Captain - "How old is your father, John?"

The soldier-"57 years old, sir."

Captain - "It's too bad, at this age they won't hire your father, who will bring the money home?" Soldier -"Sir, I'll take it!?"

Captain -"You? hahaha...."

The captain laughed and then looked into the soldier's eyes. His green eyes almost seemed to see inside the soldier, the soldier no longer returned his gaze and bowed his head. The captain took a breath on the soldier's face and,

Captain - "John, how is a dead man going to bring money home?"

The soldier could not answer, he just felt anxious and fearful inside. The captain turned to another soldier and asked his name in the same way,

The soldier -"Arnold, Sir!" the soldier cried from fear.

Captain-"Arnold, does she have a lover?"

Arnold - "Yes, sir, we are going to have a wedding in the summer."

Captain -"Do you love your lover very much?"

Arnold -"I love her very much, sir!"

Captain -"This is too bad.Because you're dead, Arnold! Your lover will marry someone else, have sex and have children. Because you're dead.! The captain eventually walked quickly towards the guilty soldier and shouted,

Captain -"IF YOU SLEEP, EVERYONE DIES!"

Everyone had even forgotten to tremble at what had happened. After a short breathing break for everyone, the captain showed the bodies that were just starting to burn, and,

Captain - "We set out early to reach you earlier and to protect you. We lost four lives on the way...Why?..let's get to you sooner, soldiers, let's keep the area safer and cordoned off!" The captain looked at the soldiers and began to speak again,

Captain - "I forgive your friend for the order and confidence of the union."

The captain raises his left hand and counts his fingers,

Captain - "YOU SHALL NOT EAT ONE MEAL, YOU SHALL NOT SLEEP TWO, YOU SHALL NOT REST THREE, AND IN THE LAST FOUR I FORBID YOU TO DIE!!"

The captain looked at the soldiers with anger and sadness,

Captain - "I don't want to see his body during my term of office. understood?!!"

Soldiers like thunder, "UNDERSTOOD, SIR!!I said.

Captain - "Good, everyone can get back to work."

he said and went to his room at the base.
