403 – Make the Bastion again(3)
As the Bastion division was leisurely leaving, the Warsaw soldiers on the walls were trembling in fear.
However, if I broke the military order, my head would be blown off right away, so I had no choice but to move despite grumbling.
“f*ck, my commander, I think that bastard’s head is really gone.”
“You went crazy a while ago, right? Peter Yeager Why are you going to fight with that war crazy bastard? If you want to die, you will die alone. “Why did you drag us in who want to live, you bastard?”
“Ha, f*ck. I heard that Jaeger decapitated 1,000 people by himself. “Does it make sense to fight and win against such a monster?”
Strictly speaking, the total number of officers and soldiers directly killed by Peter Yeager in the last war was about 950, less than 1,000.
However, it was he who killed the most Allied soldiers in the Reich Imperial Army.
Strategic insight, command ability, operational planning ability, and even the charisma that unites soldiers as one that make even the feat of killing nearly 1,000 enemies seem insignificant.
It is enough to plunge everyone in the Grand Duchy of Warsaw into fear, not to mention overflowing.
At this time, several of those who were part of the previous Allied Forces and had personally fought with Peter Yeager suddenly started having seizures.
His bottoms were already wet with urine and he collapsed with crab foam in his mouth.
“Peter Yeager! Bastion! No! “I’d rather commit suicide than fight those monsters!”
“(Grrr?’
“That’s not a person, it’s a devil! “A devil, a devil wearing human skin!”
They were people who returned after directly experiencing the terrible battle in which 1 million people took part in the war and only about 40,000 came back alive.
Such people are at the forefront of breaking morale by showing fitful movements and spouting words of despair, consumed by the madness of fear.
All of the soldiers who had no intention of fighting the Reich Imperial Army from the beginning strongly sympathized with their words.
“When I see guys I’ve fought with running wild like that, I don’t think this is a good thing.”
“Officer, f*ck. “We don’t want to be killed!”
“Don’t you think that evil bastard will kill not only me, but also my wife and children? “I don’t know, but my fox-like wife and rabbit-like children won’t do it…”
Anyway, the Reich Imperial Army under Peter Jaeger began to slowly but meticulously surround the castle.
If the Warsaw soldiers had almost lost their will to fight and were in despair, the fighting spirit of the Imperial Army officers and soldiers seemed to be sky-high.
No one had any worries or concerns about the possibility of defeat, and only thought about avenging the empire in this war and receiving a huge reward for making a great contribution.
“Marshal Jaeger is with us! But what’s the big deal about walls this low?”
“The time has come to kill those Warsaw bastards who killed your family, brothers, and neighbors!”
“There is no need to watch! “The enemy told me to kill them all!”
As the soldiers continued to surround the castle, Lieutenant General Ivan, head of the garrison of Kurshu Castle, drew his sword and shouted:
“We must strengthen our defense very tightly! Boil the water and load your ballista and crossbow with arrows! If you don’t prepare thoroughly now, the castle wall will be breached! “We must fight to protect our families and our hometown!”
The words that make people risk their lives in war are ‘Fight to protect your family and hometown.’ However, this also applies to people who have the slightest desire to fight.
When I complained in front of the guard commander, I didn’t know when my head would run away, so no one said anything to him.
Everyone mutters in a corner or somewhere out of earshot.
“If only that crazy bastard didn’t come out, his life could be saved.”
“Oh, damn that torturer, Lieutenant General! “There’s no way slobs like us can do anything against Peter Yeager.”
“If you’re going to be loyal, you’re going to be damned alone. “Why are they making such a fuss to make us all die, even those of us who don’t like them… and even our helpless children?”
Lieutenant General Ivan, sensing that the atmosphere was not good, kicked a soldier who was moving slowly in front of him.
It is unacceptable for an officer to beat a soldier for no reason, but it is justifiable discipline for him to beat a slow-moving guy even though he was ordered to move to protect the castle.
“You idiot! Peter Yeager is besieging the castle to kill you and your wife and children! But why can’t I just move my feet like that? “Do you have a problem with your feet?”
“No, but the opponent is that Peter Yeager…”
After hearing his answer, Lieutenant General Ivan grasped the sword in his hand with both hands.
Then, he cut off the head of the soldier who said he was too scared to move.
Blood splattered everywhere.
“The war has already begun! What are you doing! Move quickly! Shouldn’t you protect yourself and your wife and children from Peter Yeager? He said that if he takes over this castle, he will slaughter all of you, even your babies! In action!”
The lieutenant general thought that if he showed everyone the scene of one punishment and one punishment like this, the soldiers would fight hard for the defense battle even if they were scared.
“What are the officers doing? Instead of rushing the soldiers to thoroughly prepare for a water-based battle! Haven’t you learned yet that the outcome of a war is determined by how you fight on the first day?”
However, the officers who received orders did not urge the soldiers as Ivan said.
It wasn’t because they lacked the will to fight or because they were cowards.
It’s just that I didn’t want to fight with my enemy, Peter Yeager.
It was because he did not want to throw away his life, the lives of his soldiers, and the lives of civilians in a battle where he had no chance of winning, like throwing firewood into a fire pit.
And finally, the second-in-command of this castle boldly stood in the way of the garrison commander.
“Lieutenant General, we are in no position to fight against the Imperial Army led by Peter Egger.”
“Director Tvanov, are you out of your mind right now? We now have 50,000 troops and over 130,000 citizens. But Peter Yeager, that rotten enemy, only has 100,000. We have a chance to cut off his head! “We have an overwhelming advantage!”
Tvanov heard the story and refuted it.
“In general, yes. But now our troops’ morale is at its lowest. “The battle itself is impossible.”
“Stop that bullsh*t!”
Ivan drew his sword and held it to Tvanov’s neck.
“Any further remarks will be considered protests.”
Tvanov chuckled when he heard that.
He has never fought Peter Yeager, the hero of the miraculous victory of fighting against over 1 million Allied forces and sparing only 40,000 people.
This was because it felt absurd to see him struggling to do anything to preserve his position even though his soldiers’ morale was so low that they were unable to fight the war itself.
‘I can’t believe that a guy called a lieutenant general, let alone a mandarin platoon leader, can’t even grasp reality.’
“f*ck.”
“Major Tvanov, you damn bastard!”
Ivan swung his sword, but Tvanov blocked it with the iron gauntlets on his hands.
“Lieutenant General Ivan, those damn bastards are on a different level from the soldiers you know. “Of all the pups I met and fought in Bastion Castle, not a single one was sane.”
“What is that!”
“Once we cut off his right arm, he moves his mace to his left arm and strikes at us. So, if you cut off both arms, they will bite off the neck with their teeth.”
Major General Tvanov trembled as he recalled the memory of that time.
‘Brigadier General Ivankov, who was next to me, was attacked by a dying girl and fell down the wall and died…’
“The Bastion Division over there is just those guys gathered together. In addition, Peter Yeager has a large army of 100,000. The morale of our soldiers who saw that had already fallen to the bottom. “I think it’s best to surrender in this situation. There is no other way.”
After hearing his polite invitation to surrender, Ivan raised his sword again and attempted to kill his second-in-command in front of him.
“It’s noisy, it’s a f*ck to eat! You will surely kill the traitor and defend this castle. And you and your family are traitors to the history of the Grand Duchy of Warsaw…”
Not being able to hold back any longer, Tvanov pulled out his sword and stabbed Ivan in the neck.
“… Since you are the commander, I gave you the opportunity to surrender honorably. Why can’t you accept it?”
Muttering that, he raised the commander’s neck high with his blood-covered hands and gave an order.
“There is no chance for us to win against Peter Yeager. I will surrender. “Anyone who has objections can speak now.”
Some officers pursed their lips, but everyone quietly quit.
No matter how much they thought about it, they did not think they would win against the Reich Imperial Army, which showed constant madness towards them.
“If there is no objection, I will raise the white flag. “We did our best.”
Hearing those words, some officers held back tears, and the soldiers cheered.

“f*ck, I lived! “It sucks, but I survived!”
“I avoided being killed!”
“I’m so glad I don’t have to fight that Jaeger…”
