I Became a Genius Commander at the Academy

EP.389

What if the Allied soldiers hated the Reich Imperial Army to the point where they would gnash their teeth and jump up in a fit at the mere sound of Peter Jaeger’s ‘ㅍ’ letter?

The soldiers of the Reich Empire hated and feared the Allied forces to the extent that they could not contain their anger even at the mere mention of the letter ‘ㅇ’.

However, rather than the fear and pressure of an enemy that is several times greater than them, the soldiers under Peter Yeager take the lead and sacrifice their lives for themselves.

I had greater trust and respect for Peter Yeager, who said he would rather die and save others if only his own life was saved in this war, and was working hard to put it into practice.

Therefore, regardless of whether reinforcements came or not, Peter Yeager ordered the march, so they stood up, prepared to fight and die together.

“Marshal Jaeger has made up his mind! “Rather than die at the hands of the Warsaw bastards, let’s fight and die honorably together with the enemy!”

“I would rather die fighting than trusting my life to those damn dirty bastards and end up getting killed!”

“Do you survive with your enemy or die with your enemy? There are only two options in the first place! Then you shouldn’t make a choice you’ll regret.”

Everyone who had the ability to run even a little, regardless of whether they were children, old men or women, quickly armed themselves with spears, swords and armor and waited for the castle gate to open.

Peter Yeager suddenly stood at the forefront of the soldiers of the 7th Division, which now had only about 2,000 members of one regiment left.

“Marshal, can you really stand in the vanguard? We are charging towards an enemy army of 180,000…”

“The people here endured a hellish time for a whopping month because of me. If I don’t do this, I won’t be able to respect myself as a commander to them. And aren’t my life and their lives the same life in the eyes of Deus?”

Although he did not really believe in Deus, he made such a remark that he believed that everyone has equal value in life.

At those words, the remaining soldiers of the 7th Division shed tears.

This is because it reminded me of the scene where the people who died protecting the empire in this castle never showed any signs of fear even in the cruel and brutal final moments.

“Now open the gate! And everyone, make up your mind. Either we die here, or we all return here alive. “Don’t think about anything more complicated than that!”

As soon as those words were finished, the gates of Bastion Castle were wide open.

Peter Yeager waited for this moment and held the sharpened sword tightly in his hand.

He ran out quickly while holding his sword and shouting.

“Long live the Reich Empire! Long live your Majesty the Emperor! Long live the brave heroes of Bastion Castle!”

Those who followed those words and ran after him from Bastion Castle chorused the same words.

As tens of thousands of people shouted with one heart and one voice, it became a loud roar, like thunder in a dry sky, shaking the Allied camp.

This is something that should never be done during a surprise operation, but anyway, the huge roar they made woke up all the sleeping enemy soldiers.

The Allied soldiers, who had been comfortably sleeping since they had been instructed to rest for three days, were startled by a sudden loud shout and, as they panicked, their minds fell into a whirlpool of confusion.

Captain Greenwich, who took command on behalf of the Archduke, tried to respond by quickly riding his horse to the headquarters barracks where the commander-in-chief was on duty.

The Archduke of Warsaw was sleeping and fell out of bed in shock.

Officers and soldiers woke up and hurried to get their armor and weapons.

“… Peter Yeager Peter Yeager that crazy pagan bastard summoned the devil to boost their morale!”

“How do you win in a fight with the devil? Wouldn’t it be better to just surrender or desert?”

“Shut up, you faithless serf! No matter how many troops Peter Yeager brought, there were only a few tens of thousands of them! “Immediately take out the spears, make a square, and make a defense…”

The number of troops who rushed out of Bastion Castle was only a little less than 20,000, but they had been treated so harshly and were waking up in confusion, making a fuss as if an army of hundreds of thousands had appeared. I trembled and started to defend myself.

It was good to prepare thoroughly, but the problem was that it took too long.

As a result, Peter Yeager was not hit by any arrows or magic while running nearly 1km to reach the enemy camp.

The 20,000 heroes, determined to die, jumped into the enemy camp, prepared to bury their bones, or even die.

“Follow Marshal Peter Yeager! Send at least one more person to hell!”

“The basic rule is to kill at least 10 people per person. Before that, you shouldn’t die carelessly. And when you die, get permission to die! “Even if we die, we must keep our enemy alive!”

“You only die once anyway. Let’s use the rest of our lives meaningfully! Let’s die together with our enemies!”

While the remaining troops of the Allied Forces were 180,000, the remaining troops under Jaeger, who began guarding the castle with 50,000 troops, were only about 20,000.

In such hand-to-hand combat, unlike all-out combat using firepower, miracles often occur in which a small number of soldiers who are not prepared to die, but simply decide to die, crush the majority.

Now, the soldiers of the Reich Empire were doing such strange things without a castle wall to protect themselves.

“Those monsters! As a group, we went crazy. As a group, we were possessed by the devil! It’s the devil! “You devil!”

“Fuck, I’ve fought all kinds of crazy people, but I’ve never been one of these vicious bastards! “They are Satan!”

“Why can’t we stop a mere 20,000 people with 180,000 people? Go forward! Charge! “It is an order from His Highness the Archduke that anyone who takes Peter Yeager’s head will be granted the title of earl and earldom!”

The Allied Forces tried to stop it with all their might, but Peter Yeager, who possessed a force surpassing that of the Sword Master, took the lead and launched a special attack that risked his life.

He died mercilessly in front of his attack, but he couldn’t even dare to block it, and he couldn’t find a way to kill Jaeger.

The Archduke of Warsaw, who had come out of the barracks with difficulty and was watching Peter Jaeger from afar, was trembling and biting his thumb nail.

“You devil devil devil! We have to kill that evil guy somehow. I tell Captain Greenwich: Mobilize all your troops to surround and annihilate Peter Yeager! “Assume the Jaegers are one army and move!”

For a trembling guy, his judgment was surprisingly accurate.

Because without Peter Yeager, those 20,000 soldiers would have been annihilated in less than a moment.

And at this time, the low sound of the horn carried by the Northern cavalry echoed throughout the battlefield.

For the Reich Imperial Army, it was a signal of hope, meaning that the reinforcements they had been waiting for had arrived, and for the Allies, it was a warning sound, like a knight of the apocalypse announcing death.

Anastasia, who led the Northern cavalry and finally arrived at the Allied camp, drew her sword and pointed forward, saying:

“The enemy didn’t even know how many of us there were, and they were so confused when they woke up that they couldn’t even mount a horse! Develop a wide formation and attack straight away! “It will throw the 180,000 enemy troops into confusion and fear!”

At those words, the cavalrymen under my command put aside the fatigue they had suffered from coming this far and started running.

The reason was simple.

A flag symbolizing Peter Yeager, visible in the light of a torch even though it is dark at night. A flag symbolizing the head of the Marquis Jaeger family.

They are grateful to the person who rescued them from a life like a gutter of despair, where they were chased by Ludvik and did not know when they would die by his sword or whether they would shiver in the bitter cold and starve to death.

Just as then, even now, I am filled with respect and overwhelming emotion for the master general who is standing at the forefront and fighting in all directions.

“We only stayed up all night for about two days and rode on horseback, but the Marshal over there has been fighting at the vanguard for a month, putting in a lot of blood! “It is better to bite your tongue and die than to show shame in front of Him!”

“Without the Reich Empire, there would be no safety or prosperous life for my family! “Now is the time to repay the favor I received from His Majesty the Emperor!”

“It is time to follow in the footsteps of our ancestors. Charge for our Khan!”

The Northern cavalry quickly fired arrows from the bows they held at the Allied soldiers.

As the fiery arrows flew, they made the night sky as beautiful as a red silk curtain, and the Allied soldiers were unable to avoid the curtain as they stared at it and died miserably.

“Deus, Deus! Why have you forsaken us?”

“Aaaah! We’re doomed, God has abandoned us! I’m going to hell now! “I don’t want to die, so send me back home!”

“Peter Yeager you fucking bastard! “Why are you doing this to us?”

Deus, who could not tell whether they were shouting like that or not and was watching from above, did not respond to their prayers.

Meanwhile, the Allied forces were dying while a 20,000-thousand-thousand-thousand-strong force directly commanded by Peter Yeager attempted to break through the center.

Outside, the archers suffered a double whammy of breaking their defense.

The Grand Duke of Warsaw and Captain Greenwich both felt helpless and despairing as they watched this scene, and fell into a state of despair, not knowing what instructions to give.

I saw with my own eyes the absurd miracle that reinforcements, which I thought would take at least another month to arrive, suddenly appeared in the middle of the night… I felt so terrible that that miracle was on the side of the Reich Empire.
