23. Amazing Sora.

Due to Han Sarang’s emergency assembly order, all the officers and soldiers who had been lazing around scrambled to the regimental parade ground.

 

In fact, the easiest and least tiring method would be to just send that Sergeant to the brig. But that wasn’t enough to satisfy her.

 

She thought that anyone who did such a thing should be given a corresponding trauma, so she deliberately gathered not only the officers but also his superiors, peers, and juniors. In other words, everyone from Sergeant to Corporal.

 

 

Now, when he returns after his brig time is over, he will not only be verbally abused, but he will also be ignored by the lower ranks. The so-called being ostracized by the ranks. It was questionable whether being ostracized after becoming a Sergeant would have any meaning, but fortunately, he had just become a Sergeant. He has quite a bit of time left.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“Lee Semin, come forward.”

“Sergeant! Lee! Se! Min!”

“Do what you did again.”

“I, I didn’t hear you correctly?”

“Do what you did earlier. You did something like Fireball besides Pika-something, right?”

 

He sweated profusely and glanced back.

 

 

‘Hiiik!’

 

 

The soldiers’ gazes were focused on him.

Some were glaring at him, not knowing what was going on, but assuming it couldn’t be anything good.

 

 

 

He squeezed his eyes shut and spread his arms to the sides like before.

Of course, it wasn’t as confident a gesture as before.

 

 

“I, Ifrit who governs ten thousand fortunes…”

“Shibal….”

 

 

The officers, who had no idea why they were assembled, guessed the situation and cursed.

What a fucking idiot.

It was absurd that he did such a thing, but not only did he not have any stealth skills despite being a Sergeant, but if he was going to get caught, he should have ended it at the level of the Sergeant Major, but he had to get caught by the Regimental Commander.

 

 

 

 

Han Sarang is a very unique case, so she is the Regimental Commander with the rank of ‘Lieutenant Colonel’, but originally the Regimental Commander is a position held by a ‘Colonel’ level officer. Even if she wasn’t a Colonel, she would usually be promoted to Colonel upon becoming the Regimental Commander.

 

She was promoted so quickly that they couldn’t give her the rank of Colonel yet and put on the brakes, but after some time, she will definitely be promoted to Colonel. That’s what the Regimental Commander of the modern Republic of Korea Army is.

 

 

Moreover, Han Sarang is the daughter of the current Army Chief of Staff.

She’s only 27 years old and already a Major, and now a Lieutenant Colonel and Regimental Commander, and even her father is a General.

Even if I don’t know, her promotion to Brigadier General or higher is almost certain.

 

 

But that crazy bastard got caught by such an officer for abuse, of all things.

 

 

 

“Grant my small wish and…vanquish the enemy before me…Fire…ball…”

 

Curses were heard from everywhere.

Not only the officers but also the Corporals and Sergeants had murderous glares that seemed to pierce through his back, saying things like, ‘Worthless bastard…’ ‘Why did you have to get caught?’

 

 

 

 

 

 

When Lee Semin’s reenactment was over, Han Sarang’s small mouth opened.

 

 

“Everyone except Lee Semin, get down.”

“Get down!”

 

Was it because the situation was so serious?

Even the officers who were lower in rank but old enough to be Han Sarang’s father got down without complaint.

 

“How are you managing things that these kinds of incidents keep happening?”

 

 

Although it wasn’t a loud voice, it sounded like thunder to the assembled officers and soldiers.

 

 

“Not only does a guard post soldier leak the password and order chicken, but now a squad leader is even committing abuse. Should I turn the unit upside down? Should I conduct an unfitness review? Do you want to end your military service?”

“I’m sorry!!!”

“Eun Yul-ryeong.”

“1st Company Commander Eun Yul-ryeong.”

“From now on, conduct a unit-wide grievance procedure. All Privates and below are to submit at least two lines.”

“Yes. I understand.”

 

 

Eun Yul-ryeong ran out quickly, and the full-scale physical punishment began.

 

 

“One for management, two for doing well. One.”

“Mana-gement!”

“Two.”

“Let’s do well!”

 

It was a cute level of physical punishment, but the purpose was not to punish them in the first place.

 

 

“Lee Semin, you do it.”

“Sergeant! Lee! Se! Min! I, I didn’t hear you correctly!!!??”

“Move according to Lee Semin’s commands. Begin.”

“….”

 

 

Lee Semin’s face turned white.

 

He turned around with a trembling body.

Tremendous murderous intent rose from the bodies of the prone soldiers, distorting the air like heat haze in the summer.

 

 

‘…I’m dead.’

 

 

“O, one…”

“Mana-gement!”

“T, two…”

“Let’s do well!”

 

He looked back at Han Sarang.

His face, full of tears and snot, was enough to evoke sympathy, but Han Sarang, who had completely entered soldier mode, was not a woman to be swayed by such things.

 

“The interval between one and two should be more than 10 seconds. The longer the interval, the better. Begin.”

“Hiiik!”

 

Lee Semin was terrified by the terrifying words and opened his mouth wide.

Of course, the physical punishment itself was given by Han Sarang, but he provided the cause, and even if only formally, he carried out the physical punishment commands, so it was clear that he would be given even more serious anger.

 

 

Naturally, his military life was completely ruined.

 

 

 

“I, I deserve to die!!!”

“Begin.”

“Just once…please just forgive me!!!”

“Can’t you hear me?”

“Aeuuu….”

 

 

Lee Semin’s mental state began to crumble in this terrible situation.

His whole body trembled and his lips chattered.

 

 

Originally, the more someone likes to bully others, the less they can endure being bullied.

 

 

He finally…collapsed mentally.

 

 

 

 

 

“Y, you’re really going too far!!”

“What?”

 

 

 

 

At the words that came out of his mouth, all the soldiers lying prone on the parade ground were shocked and raised their heads.

The platoon leader, company commander, and battalion commander of Lee Semin’s unit made all sorts of expressions, telling him to shut up immediately, but it was impossible for it to reach Lee Semin, who had his back turned.

 

 

“It’s not like I b,b,beat them! I just…played a little prank! Isn’t this too much!”

“….”

 

 

The parade ground became so quiet that you could hear an ant crawling. Especially the officers’ expressions were rigid themselves.

 

“Hey….”

 

Han Sarang was amazed.

And couldn’t help but feel dumbfounded.

 

Lee Semin, misunderstanding how she took it, continued to run his mouth.

 

“Since the Regimental Commander-nim is a woman…and hasn’t experienced life in the barracks and…was fast-tracked due to external factors, she probably doesn’t know, but…everyone plays like this in the squad! A Sergeant Major with some experience would just laugh it off!!”

“You son of a bitch, won’t you shut up?!”

 

 

The platoon leader and company commander, unable to bear it any longer, shouted with curses mixed in, but the Sergeant stared at Han Sarang as if he were having a staring contest.

 

Han Sarang, with a headache, pressed her temples.

 

 

“So you’re saying that a woman and a parachute with no experience is giving unfair physical punishment without knowing anything?”

“I, I didn’t say it that way…”

“….”

 

I never thought he would be so clueless.

 

 

Of course, what he said was right.

She’s a woman, so of course she’s a woman, and she’s only 27 years old, so she has no experience. Besides, she’s a parachute. Except for special cases like Eun Yul-ryeong, her peers are only Captains at best.

 

 

“Yeah, it must be funny to see a woman who’s not that much older than you acting like a Regimental Commander.”

“N, no!”

“What do you mean no? Yeah. What’s the age difference, only 6 years at most? What kind of Regimental Commander is that? Call me comfortably. Just call me Nuna.”

“C, can I really do that?”

“….”

 

The soldiers lying prone on the parade ground couldn’t overcome their crushing despair and lowered their heads.

 

 

 

 

 

+++

 

 

 

 

 

 

Han Sarang’s regiment was turned upside down by the legendary ‘Can I really do that?’ incident and the discovery of a pile of abuse cases due to the regiment-wide grievance procedure.

 

At first, she had Eun Yul-ryeong conduct the grievance procedure for Privates and below, but after thinking about it, she didn’t think it would be done properly, so Han Sarang personally visited the squads and collected the grievances.

 

 

Of course, from the soldiers’ point of view, it goes without saying that it was the most annoying thing ever, even if they put aside the grievance procedure.

 

 

 

 

 

“Wow. Your image must be completely ruined. That’s why I told you not to wander around unnecessarily. Just stay still.”

“It was a necessary thing.”

“Necessary my ass…more than that, are you okay? Really.”

 

Eun Yul-ryeong clicks her tongue and says, but Han Sarang doesn’t react much. She just taps the table with her finger.

 

“Just let it go with something like insulting a superior. Anyway, the rumors about him have spread, so no matter what he goes for, he’s definitely going to be ostracized. But if you unnecessarily create a case and make the victims and perpetrators face each other, what crime did they commit? They’ll be ostracized together. Just let the grievance procedure go with something like a unit-wide punishment. Don’t specify anyone.”

 

 

Han Sarang thought for a moment and nodded.

 

 

It may not be enough to satisfy the victim’s heart, but even she shouldn’t blow things up without a plan. Besides, isn’t Yoo Eun in the middle of a coup right now? It’s basically wartime.

 

 

“Okay. You can receive it together too.”

“…No, shib…why me.”
