I Became a Genius Commander at the Academy

EP.361

In normal times, the monarchs of the continent of Europa never gather together unless something serious happens.

This is because the absence of a country’s monarch opens up the possibility of assassination or treason, so unless someone agrees, the duke of a principality cannot visit the kingdom in person and hold a meeting.

But now, here at Krimstadt Castle, the four kings of the Czech Republic, the Grand Duke of Austria, the Grand Duke of Warsaw, and the King of Stockholm have gathered in one place.

Everyone was looking at each other with serious expressions, no, desperate expressions.

And the loudest and most recent of these was the Grand Duke of Warsaw, who spoke loudly because of Peter Jaeger.

“I’ll be honest. “As long as that damned bastard, Peter Yeager, is alive and well with his eyes open, we can’t even go to sleep in peace, right?”

As the monarch of a country, declaring that the empire was scary was like saying that we were such weak, weaklings.

So it was a situation that everyone could laugh at, but no one here laughed at the Archduke of Warsaw.

No, I didn’t even think of despising or ignoring him.

This is because Peter Yeager, who single-handedly cut down more than 200 Swiss mercenaries in a month and always inflicted more crushing defeats than imagined, was the very thing of fear.

“Because of that bastard, we, the Grand Duchy of Warsaw, were busy suppressing the civil war among the nobles until last year. As a result, 1/3 of the nobility was purged, and the number of territories directly under the imperial family was increased, thereby strengthening the central power. “Why should I do that? The whole country has been devastated and the land has become a mess.”

After hearing that, everyone nodded and added a word.

“The 7th Guards Division, commanded by Peter Yeager, is a monster itself. More than 20,000 articles were blocked with only 8,000 people. And then they wiped out our knights.”

“But I was deprived of supplies by a detachment of only 20 people, and the main base was taken over!”

“The Grand Duke of Czechia hasn’t suffered much. I have the royal capital under siege! “Then, to the shame of my ancestors, I surrendered to him.”

The four people present were all traumatized by Peter Yeager, so for a moment, a family-like bond was formed between them.

Just like that, they cursed and cursed Peter Yeager for nearly two hours, as if pulling out his internal organs and tearing him into pieces wasn’t enough, he would be forced to live as a back alley male prostitute with that same smile on his face for the rest of his life. Then, when he got older, he would have to twist his limbs to death.

So much so that if the person involved were to see it here, they would laugh at it, saying it was like a weak animal barking loudly.

However, gossiping about a specific person behind their back has the power to instantly solidify a relationship, regardless of the era.

“What do you think, the Grand Duke of Warsaw? “I think you must have come up with a good strategy to propose an alliance with our four countries.”

The Grand Duke of Warsaw handed everyone a plan containing the strategy he had written, as if he had been waiting to hear that.

Those who received the book, which was about the size of a legal code, immediately began to read the contents inside and applauded the extremely detailed and realistic content.

So the initiative was soon transferred to the Archduke of Warsaw, who brought the plan.

“The original plan was to bring in the damn Francois Republic and attack the Reich Empire. However, as everyone knows, we are at war with the United Kingdom bastards who eat disgusting food and ravenously, so it would be difficult to expect participation in the war.”

The Milanese Union, one of the main pillars of the Farosian Union, was currently struggling after being crushed by Peter Jaeger, and Switzerland was not included because they were busy fighting over the title of Duke of Switzerland.

Although the four people gathered here felt regretful, they did not make any sounds of despair or sighing.

Because if they fight one by one, they may be defeated by the empire, but what if the four countries join forces? Even Peter Yeager wouldn’t be able to handle it.

“So there is nothing we can do. “The four countries have no choice but to join forces and attack the Reich Empire simultaneously.”

At this time, the Grand Duke of Czechia suddenly intervened and asked:

“It’s good to attack at the same time. If that’s all we have planned, wouldn’t we need to gather like this? “It would be enough to just send diplomats and agree on the date of departure and the route of the troops.”

The Grand Duke of Warsaw chuckled at those words.

“Let’s say four countries divide their armies to attack each other. Then have you ever thought about this? “The idea that the monstrous Peter Yeager would destroy them one by one.”

“……”

“So, we need to combine our armies to create an allied force that will act as one body. That way, we can maximize our advantage as the four countries are the only ones that can surpass Peter Yeager in numbers. “Can the Archduke entrust the matter of entrusting the command of his country’s army to a mere ‘ambassador plenipotentiary’?”

Although he was an ambassador plenipotentiary, a diplomat with the authority to represent the king, he could not suggest entrusting ‘command authority’ to a general, king, or duke of another country unless he was the monarch himself.

So the Grand Duke of Czechia was speechless and had no choice but to sit quietly.

The Grand Duke of Warsaw, who had secured the initiative, appealed with veins in his eyes.

“Besides, let’s be honest. If we cannot stop the expansion of the Reich Empire now, the country that our ancestors built with their blood may fall. Because the empire is gradually expanding its power and will become stronger than we can even imagine.”

Everyone was vaguely feeling that fear, so they took the risk of coming here.

When everyone had already agreed on something, everyone urged them to speak quickly.

“So, Warsaw plans to mobilize 250,000 troops.”

The 250,000 troops that the Empire had in peacetime were only about 1/3, but in order to mobilize this number of troops from the Grand Duchy of Warsaw and go on an expedition…

Warsaw had to be prepared to risk the fate of the nation.

The other three people here all knew that, so for a moment they tried to argue that they were crazy, but…

“Honestly, you don’t know either, do you? Once Peter Yeager starts going on a rampage like this, there is absolutely no way to stop him. So I don’t want to sit like this and die!”

I was speechless when the Grand Duke of Warsaw said that he did not want to die.

“Even the nobles under your command and the most lowly commoners will be full of fear and worry about Peter Yeager, so if you persuade them with fear, they will all be convinced that you can commandeer supplies and forcibly mobilize troops. Because if you sit still like this, you will be killed in the war. “Even if it’s a little painful right now, I’m thinking about killing Peter Yeager.”

These words were very persuasive to those who were filled with awe and fear of the great general Peter Jaeger and wary of the Reich Empire’s constant expansion of power.

“So, you too, make up your mind. Either kill Peter Yeager, or at least crush the Empire so that it never rises again. Otherwise.”

After pausing for a moment, the Archduke took a deep breath and spoke.

“You can just let go and get trampled by that Jaeger.”

There was silence for about 20 minutes, and then the King of Stockholm slammed the desk and spoke.

“I’d rather die than have to suffer from that damn Jaeger! “Our Kingdom of Stockholm will mobilize 200,000 troops!”

When the waters opened, the Grand Dukes of Czechia and Austria spoke loudly.

“The Czech Republic will mobilize 270,000 troops. “Wouldn’t we either kill Peter Yeager or the Grand Duchy would be destroyed?”

“We will also mobilize 290,000 people from the Grand Duchy of Austria. Okay, so when do you plan on going out?”

The Grand Duke of Warsaw said with an evil smile at them getting so excited.

“I will go out in the spring in two years. And who should take command?”

At those words, the other monarchs pointed to the Grand Duke of Warsaw.

“Take command yourself! Instead, the Grand Duchy of Warsaw must prepare for its own government!”

“Wouldn’t it be more appropriate for the Archduke to lead it himself?”

“Just try to do it roughly and I will destroy your country instead.”

After reaching a general agreement with the commanding authority, they reached an agreement over several days, and as time passed, full-scale conscription began.
