I have scenario for a war story scenario in which a senior officer takes a dislike to a group of soldiers and starts to pick on them. So I am wondering what these men's junior officer could possible do to aid his men in this situation? Background information, its set in January 1905 in the Russo-Japanese War and the Imperial Russian Army and the junior officer is the main character. I like the story but the specifics of what this junior officer could semi-realistically do to aid his men against this harassement is something I am a bit at loss about in this time period. EDITED: Replies no longer needed as the story has been put on the shelf, for now.
