EP.254

Shortly after Captain Tateushu gave the order to the knights to march, the order was delivered to the knights waiting at the rear of the main camp.

“Commander, this is your order! Everyone, please check your armor and pick up your lance! “This is an order for an all-out attack!”

Until just now, the knights were sitting near their horses, taking a break, and chatting about all kinds of things.

It was mainly about women, from a story about a woman brought in by a military merchant having big breasts, to saying that he had to do his military service to avoid getting ripped off by his wife when he got home, etc.

Unlike the new infantrymen, they were exchanging meaningless words in an atmosphere that did not show any sign of great tension or fear, but that did not mean they were unaware that the headquarters to which the high-ranking generals belonged was divided.

On the contrary, I knew it well, but due to the knight’s unique pride, I just held on with my evil spirit, thinking that it would be better to die than to show ‘a fearful appearance’ or ‘a timid appearance.’

For these people, the pre-departure atmosphere, where they had to ‘pretend like nothing was wrong’ like the eve of a storm, was secretly painful.

However, now that the order to march had been given, the knights were rather glad that they no longer had to think about useless things, as all they had to do was pick up their lances and think about striking down the enemy.

“Fuck Peter Yeager, we’ll take that bastard’s head at any cost! “Don’t stop me!”

“You damn Reich bastards, I’m going to make you a Reich steak today!”

“Today, I’m going to see the pretty face of Jaeger, who is said to look like a cross between a dog and a pig. “Don’t stop me!”

As they spoke with a lot of bravado, as they always did, and got on their horses, the knights felt that the fear had disappeared from their minds.

As always, it was just a matter of letting go of ‘fear’ for a moment as he was preoccupied with the thought of striking and killing his enemies with a war horse weighing over 500-600 kg.

Lieutenant General Chekojevsky, who commanded them, felt the fighting spirit burning in the knights and began to hypnotize himself, thinking that if things continued like this, there was a possibility that he could kill even that hateful and shameless Jaeger.

Then he asked to see how far he could judge.

“messenger! “Did the captain give us any orders where to charge?”

“doesn’t exist! However, he only told the knights to crush the infantry led by Jaeger as quickly as possible

.”

“I understand. Then we will attack the right wing of the enemy infantry, so when we give the signal, tell them to send the reserve unit that way.”

In order to deliver the lieutenant general’s instructions, the messenger jumped on his horse and disappeared with his hair flying.

After seeing this, Chejojewski took his place in the center of the third row, close to the vanguard, and gave orders after seeing the proud knights of Warsaw.

“My proud comrades, you will be the protagonists and saviors of this war!

However, the staff did not carelessly raise the question, but if they did, they would ask, ‘Are you trying to give my wife a privilege? This is because you may be asked the terrible question, ‘What is your position? Should I take off your badge and discharge you?’

Peter Yeager noticed this atmosphere and sighed and said to the staff, thanking them for their concern, but telling them not to show off.

“It is true that Colonel Laura is my wife, but that doesn’t mean I can have her on the battlefield. If I had meant to do that, I would have used my authority to pin both Colonel Laura and Brigadier General Anya to the rear and not let them come out. And if they set an example, shouldn’t the morale of officers fighting in the field rise? “I feel like I want to step forward.”

The staff nodded at the very reasonable words, and although the other captains said they wanted to go to the front line because they were older, most of them, except for ‘Patton’, were just speaking from their hearts.

Peter Yeager has just turned 30, is in good health, and is a legendary battle monster who single-handedly cut down over 200 enemies in Richen according to official records, so he is a man who can fight well on the front line.

So, knowing that he was sincere when he said that he wanted to stand on the front line, they all kept their mouths shut.

“Slowly sending the reserve unit to the enemy’s rear. “Tell them to move so secretly that our troops do not notice until they reach the rear through the forests on the left and right.”

Meanwhile, Colonel Laura was waiting for the order to go to the main camp with a mixture of tension and anticipation as she was to lead the knights for the first time in several years.

No, she even felt a little nervous inside, separate from the battle.

‘No, I can’t lose the bet like last time when I opened my eyes and got my nose cut by that fox... In this war, I will definitely do the best and monopolize the captain...’

Because this time, just like when I fought in the Kingdom of Stockholm, I got a 3-day exclusive ticket for Peter Jaeger. This is because the two are betting.

While Laura was internally grinding her teeth, a messenger came to the rear where the knights were stationed and said:

“This is Captain Jaeger’s order! He ordered the knights to arm themselves immediately and destroy the knights of the Grand Duchy of Warsaw who were trying to attack our right wing.”

With those words, the knights realized that their opportunity had finally come and immediately began preparing to take up arms.

“The vanguard is Colonel Laura’s regiment, and there is no auxiliary archer cavalry! “Then let’s go!”

Laura von Wehner gritted her teeth, saying that she must use this opportunity to somehow accomplish something greater than catching Ishtaven.

So, I wanted to shout, ‘I will be at the forefront,’ but since I was a woman, my strength was somewhat limited...

“Major Jurgen! The major is the vanguard! I will direct the direction of the assault formation from the third line. “Can you do it well?”

“Major Jürgen! “I will do my best at the vanguard, even if it means sacrificing my life!”

The knights of the Reich Empire soon armed themselves and set out to intercept the Warsaw knights.
