Chapter 405

EP.405

After taking over Kurshu Castle, our Reich Imperial Army occupied the enemy’s territory in a single movement, almost without any resistance.

In a typical war, when a conquering army invades, they often stay in their castles and resist, thinking that they might kill their family, relatives, and neighbors.

In the case of this war, not only did it begin with the allied forces completely annihilated and killed, sapping all their will and morale to resist, but I also completely banned war crimes against those who surrendered to the entire army, which was also effective. .

However, there were times when a defensive battle was attempted, and in these cases, as I have already declared, men, women and children were given the opportunity to die with honor.

Of course, the wishes of those who cried out for my child to be saved because my wife was pregnant were not granted.

‘They may say it’s cruel, but what can you do? That this is war. And who are the people who pushed me to Warsaw? Aren’t they Allied forces? ‘They trampled not only our lives but also our honor in Bastion Castle.’

At least I respected the honor of those who chose to die.

Some people may see my actions like this and say that I am hypocritical and that honor is important to a dead person, but no matter the situation, wouldn’t it be better if I could die with at least some meaning rather than a meaningless dog’s death?

“Marshal!”

“What’s going on?”

“The commanders of other army groups will arrive at Polska Castle, the capital of the Grand Duchy of Warsaw, in a little while. “He asked me to give him instructions on how to move next.”

Under normal circumstances, we would gather them all together before sieging the capital of the Grand Duchy, share the progress to date, and discuss future operations.

In this way, we will find the best course of action to take now and then move our soldiers according to the adopted operation details and plan.

The Warsaw bastards will have virtually no strength to resist the million-strong army I have led.

“Tell them to move according to the first plan we gave them in advance. “After completing the setup of the camp and surrounding Polska Castle, we will attack the castle immediately.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“And is there anything else you need to tell me?”

“A messenger was sent from Stockholm, Czech Republic, Austria, who participated in the Allied Forces, saying that they had a serious story to discuss with the Marshal.”

I had expected that if I drew my sword and attacked the Grand Duchy of Warsaw, they would be frightened and ask for peace.

However, I thought that the first time they came to beg for their lives, they would at least capture Polska Castle and destroy the Grand Duchy of Warsaw.

Maybe it’s because the spineless people are quick to judge the situation, or maybe it’s because they were pissed when they saw that only 40,000 out of 1 million Allied troops returned alive, but it was faster than I expected.

In order to protect the national reputation of the Reich Empire, it would be better to meet them in person and have a proper conversation.

“We will besiege Polsky Castle watertightly and stay here for a long time, so set up camp and camps accordingly.”

Reich Imperial Army command barracks.

Messengers from countries that participated in the Allied Forces bowed their heads as soon as I entered the command barracks.

I snickered and laughed at them.

“Look, let me just be honest.”

“What do you mean to be honest?”

“Do you really have the confidence to stop it if I conscript a million Reich troops and attack them? Or do you think you too will end up like the Grand Duchy of Warsaw?”

“......”

As I touched my marshal’s commander’s badge, symbolizing the imperial military authority, and placed it on the shoulder of the Stockholm Kingdom’s ambassador, he began to tremble.

It’s not like he had any intention of killing them, but he’s so scared that he looks cute.

“I am not at all afraid of you joining forces or doing anything. “I mean this.”

That’s because those three countries’ military power has reached rock bottom after experiencing the negative news of the Allied Forces being annihilated by our imperial army.

According to what I heard from the Minister of Foreign Affairs, many noble families became extinct in the aftermath of my massacre, either because their heads were replaced or because there was no one to take over.

So what can these people who are politically unstable and have no proper military power do? If you mess around, you should go out and die.

“No, let’s just not conclude peace negotiations. “Go back and prepare to fight hard in your country.”

When the negotiations were completely abandoned, everyone’s faces, including the Stockholm ambassador, crumpled.

I patted each of them on the shoulder.

Then, surprise appeared on their faces.

His eyes were shaking wildly, and the Czech representative looked at me with his mouth open.

“Fight with honor. Just as the 52,000 soldiers from Bastion did. The only difference is that you and your country will never be safe.”

“......”

“Not only you, but even women, boys, and even babies who have just started walking will have to hold weapons in their fern-sized hands and resist. Otherwise, we won’t be able to survive the wrath of those who survived Bastion.”

After giving that warning, I sat down in my seat, took a sip of tea, and spoke leisurely.

“I have high expectations inside. How much resistance will you be able to resist and whether there will be someone like Major General Landel who has the indomitable spirit to cut down the enemy with only willpower even if his whole body is broken and he cannot move? Otherwise, you don’t even put up any resistance and just open the gates and beg for help, like I did in the countless castles I’ve seen on my way through Warsaw.”

Ambassador Hansen changed his attitude after hearing what I said.

“Okay then, 4 duchies!!”

I ignored those words and walked away.

“Oh, there is something I want to show you in person before we negotiate peace. You guys would have missed it too. How the Warsaw nobility and the Imperial Army, thirsty for the blood of the Warsaw people, fight to honor the souls of those who died in the Bastion. After watching that, let’s talk slowly.”
