Shire's job was to report directly to General Gallieni, which meant delivering the latest intelligence to Gallieni.
This sounded like a very simple job, just delivering information, but there was a lot to learn.
"You must have a considerable understanding of the battlefield!" Fernan laid a thick map and a pile of documents half the height of a person in front of Shire: "You are a staff officer, not a courier, a courier only needs to know how to read, talk, and walk. But you must be ready to answer the General's questions at any time, such as where a certain unit is, what the battlefield situation is, etc.!"
"How can I remember all of this?" Shire looked at the pile of documents in front of him in surprise.
"You don't need to remember, Lieutenant!" Fernan raised his eyebrows: "Here's a little secret for you, wherever there is a battle recently, you should try to understand as much as possible and follow it in a timely manner, so you can answer the General's questions!"
