I Became a Genius Commander at the Academy - Chapter 440
EP.440
After Peter Yeager heard those words, he quietly gestured.
“Please respectfully take His Highness the Crown Prince to a safe place. In addition, Colonel Falcon, who was in charge of His Majesty’s bodyguard, will be sent to court-martial immediately after the battle for failing to faithfully perform his duties.”
After saying that, two officers under Peter Yeager immediately moved to honor the crown prince with respect.
“Your Majesty, I will take you there respectfully.”
“This is a battlefield. “It’s dangerous, so we’ll take you to a safe place.”
The words were intended to take them to a safe place, but in reality, there was a tense atmosphere that they had no choice but to subdue them rather harshly if they did not follow them.
Although the Crown Prince was secretly afraid of their threats, he remembered the last time he was led by Peter Jaeger’s hand and stood in front of François’ people, and they couldn’t help but cheer and be moved as he told them that they had waited for him without forgetting him.
‘Even though the Francois Empire is ruined, I must protect it as a member of the Cafe royal family.’
In addition, isn’t all of this ultimately a play that is put together and played?
“I won’t go. “Because this is where I should be as the princess of the Café House of the Francois Empire and the crown prince of the Reich Empire.”
Then she shook off the officers and walked toward Peter Yeager.
At that moment, Peter Jaeger was swinging his sword and slaughtering Francois’ soldiers, following his orders.
“Save me! “You monster!”
The unknown man who had begged Francois to save his life was decapitated by a single stab wound while he wet his pants.
The soldiers behind him tried to fight at all costs, pointing weapons such as short spears, swords, and maces at him, and attempted tearful resistance…
“Fuck, fuck!”
“Do you think we’re going to die like this?”
“Ugh, come on!”
Her face was covered in cold sweat, her legs were trembling, and wet marks were evident on her lower body.
Peter Yeager did not laugh at those people.
“I respect your willingness to fight until the end. “I will send you away with a single blow so that you can die without pain.”
While saying that, when Peter Yeager raised his sword high and tried to kill the guys in front of him…
“Stop it, Generalissimo!”
When Peter Yeager heard those words, he paused, then lowered the sword he was holding high as if he had no choice, shook off the blood that was on it, and put it back in its sheath.
Crown Prince Lina walked quietly and blocked Jaeger’s path as if covering Francois’ soldiers in front of him.
“Your Majesty, if you continue to disobey military orders like this, you will not be able to avoid His Majesty’s severe punishment, even if you tell the Crown Prince to protect you.”
“I know that could happen. However, as the princess of the Kafe Imperial Family and the Crown Princess of the Reich Empire, I have a mission to protect them.”
**
Jang, the man who had just been almost killed by Peter Yeager He was suspicious of the scene unfolding before his eyes.
That’s because he has been educated so much.
The woman who appears before their eyes is a prostitute from the cafe’s imperial family who has reappeared to exploit them, and she is the Crown Princess of the Reich Empire.
It was because he couldn’t believe that a beautiful woman wearing a dress that looked so expensive would go out into the middle of the battlefield to save a lowly human like herself.
He was so dumbfounded and embarrassed that he couldn’t think of running away.
I was just staring blankly at the scene in front of me.
‘Am I dreaming now?’
However, as if to prove that the man’s words were not a dream, the princess continued speaking.
“Also, His Majesty the Emperor provided food to Francois’ people with the intention of embracing them as subjects of the Reich Empire in the future. Isn’t that so, Marshal?”
Peter Yeager, the symbol of that fear, was speechless at those words.
In fact, he was just pretending to be ignored by the princess’s words… but
this is what Jang thought when he saw it in person.
‘Her Highness the Crown Princess is risking danger for a lowly person like me to stop Peter Yeager…’
As he watched that scene, tears came out of his eyes.
“majesty.”
In addition, two other soldiers around him gave up running away and looked at the Crown Princess.
Unlike the aristocrats of the Francois Republic, who only saw themselves as talking animals rather than people, her warm eyes and attitude seemed to regard lowly humans like themselves as human beings.
Looking at the courageous figure that is being shown right now, standing proudly in front of the incarnation of fear that is Peter Yeager and trying to protect them.
This is because they decided that if they wanted to survive, they had to hold on to the princess.
Immediately, they knelt down, put their heads down on the ground, and prayed, as if they were seeing a high being.
“Please save me, I have a wife like a fox and children like rabbits!”
“What is the crime of idiots like us?”
“Her Royal Highness!”
Crown Princess Lina saw this and strengthened her resolve once again.
“…… Vision, please get out of here. “Francois must be killed here to reveal the majesty of the empire.”
“It’s not possible. “I cannot admit it.”
“……”
After fighting with Peter Yeager for a while, Crown Prince Via looked at François’ soldiers with a solemn expression befitting a princess and spoke.
“I am the princess of the Lina von Kafe Kafe Imperial Family and the Crown Princess of the Reich Empire.”
At those words, all of the Francois and Reich soldiers around him stopped moving for a moment.
The soldiers of the Francois Republic were so surprised that the princess of the empire who had been driven out decades ago had appeared that their movements stopped for a moment.
“Why on earth is Her Majesty the Princess of the Cafe Imperial Family in a battlefield like this?”
The Reich Empire soldiers also paused for a moment at the fact that His Highness the Crown Prince was speaking to them.
“…Why on earth is Her Majesty the Princess?”
Lina helped one of the kneeling soldiers up.
“What’s your name?”
“This is Jang.”
“So, Jean… do you want to go back home?”
Jang, who was stood up at those words, nodded and shed tears.
“I have a wife and children who only look at me. If I die here, my whole family will be thrown out onto the streets. So please save me. If you ask me to give my allegiance to the Reich Empire, I will. You can ask me to become a slave…”
“There is no need for that. However, no country can spare the life of someone who points a sword at the Reich Empire… so put down your sword and surrender. “Then I will send you back to your hometown right away.”
“Is that true?”
Lina nodded at those words.
Then, her words soon spread to the soldiers in the Francois Republic army.
They say that if you surrender, they will let you live.
Because these were the words they needed more than anything and were the most earnest words.
Francois’ soldiers laid down their weapons without hesitation.
“You won’t believe what the imperial soldiers say, but they say you are the princess of the Imperial House of Cafe…”
“You care about people like us…”
“It would be great if you just gave us something to eat…”
All of these people had weapons. As he began to put it down, the other officers looked at Peter Yeager this time.
Although he didn’t say anything, he was asking for my opinion on what to do.
Peter Yeager gritted his teeth and changed the order.
“Her Royal Highness has accepted their surrender, so there is nothing we can do. Please spare the lives of all those who put down their weapons and surrender. “Kill anyone who resists or runs away with a weapon.”
Despite what he said, Peter Yeager was feeling satisfied that his operation was going well in the right direction.
At the same time as those words were spoken, the imperial soldiers raised their weapons and shouted loudly.
“Put down your weapons and raise your hands! Then you won’t die!”
“If you don’t want to die, throw away your weapon!”
“His Royal Highness Crown Prince Lina took pity on your humble lives! “Stop resisting pointlessly and surrender!”
Except for Carlos, some other leaders, and a few soldiers who were lucky enough to escape the siege…
they put down their weapons without hesitating even for a second after hearing the story.
“You can’t die like this.”
“Please save me.”
“I surrender, please spare my life. “I want to go back to my wife and children!”
As everyone began to surrender, a cart containing the flour porridge that Lina had prepared arrived just in time.
The food the Reich Empire soldiers ate was of much better quality than this, so they did not pay much attention to it… but the
Francois soldiers, who had lived in an environment where they could not expect proper supplies, flocked in as if they were going crazy when they saw the wheat porridge.
“I’m going to eat, I’m going to eat!”
“Could you please give me another bowl?”
“Ugh, I have to feed it to my children too…”
I felt a little guilty when I saw Francois’s people liking something that didn’t look like porridge, just boiled with flour, water, and vegetables, but…
‘This is also for the sake of the empire. It was also necessary.’
And on this day, I was able to completely lay the foundation for controlling the public opinion of the soldiers of the Francois Republic.
