Chapter 441

EP.441

After I, Peter Yeager, declared that the war was over, I immediately went to clean up the battlefield.

“Treat the bodies of all fallen soldiers of the Francois Reich Empire with the utmost respect. “The only thing we can do is cremate and bury them, but this is an order from His Majesty the Crown Prince not to discriminate even against the dead.”

Since this is a war-related issue, you don’t have to follow His Highness the Crown Prince’s orders, but even if I have the authority to do so... Unless

there is a specific reason to oppose it, it is better in many ways to follow orders from higher-ups.

Moreover, the living Francois soldiers may not know, but the dead can no longer bother us, so we should bury them with the hope that they will go to heaven after they die.

To put it bluntly, I didn’t kill these guys because I had a grudge against them.

When I gave the order, the Reich Empire soldiers gave me instructions with irritated expressions.

“You guys over there, Francois, move quickly.”

“If you get caught trying to do something strange with a shovel or something, you will die.”

“Do not use the life that Crown Princess Lina gave you in vain. “If you just do as I tell you, I will send you home safely.”

If it were any other time, I would have thought about ordering you to work together, or even telling you to talk without making such an impression.

‘Just yesterday, they were fighting with their lives on the battlefield, so how can we become friends right away?’

“aide.”

The adjutant next to me quickly responded to those words.

“Yes, Excellency Marshal!”

Usually, most of the commanders and adjutants are majors, but sometimes a few people are promoted and end up with the rank of lieutenant colonel when they are assigned to their next position.

Because His Majesty the Emperor emphasized that the Deputy of the Generalissimo is special, my Adjutant is a general with a one-star rank.

Even now, I still can’t get used to seeing a 6-star adjutant only get 1 star.

For reference, my Chief of Staff at the Grand Marshal’s Department has 3 stars. When I think of other people at that level being commanders of corps or heads of specific departments at the Chief of Staff...

‘It’s so unique that it’s dizzying.’

“His Majesty the Crown Prince has ordered you not to treat François’ soldiers carelessly, so let them know that you should never beat or seek more than necessary. “In particular, if a beating is carried out without a valid reason, even execution is possible under military law.”

“I understand, Your Excellency. “But may I ask why?”

At that, I waved my hand to signal him to listen.

Our adjutant strangely put his ear in my direction.

“The Francois Republic is practically ours now. In such a situation, what good would it be to abuse them? To put it bluntly, you received a baronial decree in this war, but the people there are so angry that they start a ‘rebellion’ or an ‘uprising.’”

The adjutant’s hands trembled when he heard those words.

It was quite possible that His Majesty granted us the privilege of managing the territory and receiving taxes.

Francois Republic army garrison.

The Republic Army was always in a bad mood because it was constantly suffering from a long civil war, but today the mood was even worse.

Normally, even in this terrible situation, there were people who tried to lighten the mood somehow, even by forcing a smile when they heard the sound of falling leaves.

Now, everyone had completely lost the mental space to do so.

Nolan, a private in the Francois Republic army, was in despair like everyone else.

“What the fuck do I do now? The battalion commander said that Peter Yeager invaded Francois and reduced everything he touched to ashes...”

No matter how incompetent the Republican commanders were, as a mere soldier under them, he had no choice but to believe what he was told from above.

No, if you don’t believe what they say, it’s like the painful times you’ve been fighting so far are being thrown into the trash can.

It was almost like

he had no choice but to believe it... but the only thing he couldn’t believe was that the high-ranking members of the Republic Army were saying that they would defeat Peter Yeager and destroy him.

“How can I overcome that crazy man-eater who takes out the intestines of living people and eats them, and dies happily every time he kills a person?”

Strictly speaking, Peter Yeager is the type of person who kills without any emotion, and if an incident of eating a person occurred within the unit... he

was the type of person who would dismember the person involved, but aren’t they all rumors in the first place?

There may be some truth to it, but as it becomes more fleshed out and exaggerated, it suddenly becomes enormous and becomes something completely different from what it started out as.

As he was in despair, Sergeant Hugo, the only senior member of the surprised private’s squad, appeared.

The reason there is no private corporal above them is because they were all cut down by the Reich Imperial Army led by Peter Jaeger.

“You surprised bastard. “Why are you so upset?”

“You don’t know when you will die, do you? “My hometown is about to be destroyed by that bastard, Peter Yeager.”

Sergeant Hugo chuckled when he heard that.

Nolan thought it was because he had given up on everything, but upon closer inspection, he saw a ‘hope’ on the sergeant’s face that he had not seen in recent years.

‘Has this guy finally gone crazy?’

“Child, I think I am rather fortunate.”

“What good is dying? “I’m about to be cut to death by that Jaeger.”

“When did I ever say we would die? and came out with me. “Because there is a precious person who can tell us how to live.”

And after a while, Nolan saw a frightening sight.
