I Don’t Need a Guillotine for My Revolution - Chapter 214
Episode 214 Abyss Crusade – The First and Last Crusade (2)
Central Continent Allied Forces.
Revolution Kingdom of Franzia Brotherhood of Iberica Empire of Germania Kingdom of Krafte Kingdom of Northern United Kingdom Kingdom of Magic Holland and even the Holy Church.
The only Alpine kingdom that was left out was the Dwarf race, which lives in the mountains deep inland in the central continent, and is short and heavy, so it does not know how to swim. It is better to produce weapons for the Allied Forces than to take the best craftsmen from the already sparsely populated continent to the battlefield. It just fell out.
So, this allied force is in fact a large-scale, heart-pounding crusade where all the countries of the Central Continent gather to fight against the demons.
However, if there are many heads, there are also many problems.
The military conference of the Central Continent Allied Forces, with its grandiose name, was neither grand nor far from unity, and it was even to the point where it was doubtful whether it was even an alliance.
“Of course, the first ones to land should be our Holy Knights!”
Fanaticism toward God and excessive loyalty to the Saint Queen Eris.
As a result of combining this with the spirit of chivalry, Alejandro, the leader of the Holy Knights, was making a fuss, saying that he would be the first to land and stand in the vanguard no matter what.
This is why they are corner monks. The only thing I did was read the Bible and practice martial arts, so that’s how it goes…
“Due to the nature of a landing war, there is no choice but to hit the enemy’s defense line head-on, but it is inevitable that the Holy Knights, which are made up of only knights and squires, and are almost all cavalry, will land first. “Isn’t that too much?”
King Henry I of Krafte’s point was very correct.
Honestly, even if I think about it, that’s crazy. Was it for no reason that Jerome Morel, who was second to none in terms of bravery, expressed reluctance to join the advance team because it was an amphibious assault?
However, Alejandro, the leader of the Holy Knights, answered very confidently.
“We are the Holy Knights protected by God! “I will confidently break through from the front!”
“Who takes the enemy’s fire?”
“God protect us; our faith is our shield!”
“How do we occupy the enemy’s defense line?”
“The knights will rush in with their squires, wipe out the enemies in one fell swoop and occupy the defense line!”
“If the Holy Knights, a valuable force, suffer heavy losses, even if the landing is successful, future wars…”
“Our firm belief will not be shaken by demons, and even if there are injuries, all of the Knights will retain their divine power. ” Since you can use it, you can recover! “Are you questioning God’s sharpest spear?”
Oh my god.
He’s a very cavalryman, and he’ll use the anvil, hammer, heal, and do everything.
Even the knights of Francia, who were sarcastically called horsemen, did not get to this point.
“I highly value the courage and confidence of the Holy Knights, but when it comes to discipline, the Krafte army is no exception. “If you leave us as the vanguard, we will be able to do it.”
In the meantime, even Henry I, who acted as if he was a man of common sense by pointing out various things to the Holy Knights, secretly revealed his true intentions of coveting the vanguard.
under.
It feels like a war won.
As soon as we land, it seems like we will destroy all the demons in an instant and become a legend that will remain in the Central Continent forever, right?
In the end, I sent a look to Crocs asking for help, but-
“We also want the vanguard! Hahahaha!”
Ah, this guy, even his damn brain is full of muscle.
With one last hope, I glanced at Gilles de Lionel, or rather Gilles von Leonhardt.
Although he was said to have led the reform of the military system, it was quite surprising that Gilles, a foreigner who had only been selected by Empress Cecilia after the Krafte War, took over as commander-in-chief of the imperial army, and the reason was very interesting.
-Until the results of the naval battle were announced, most of the imperial princes were skeptical about this war. So, I was selected by the Empress Dowager and formed an expeditionary force centered around our pro-Kaiser faction, the new military wing. It wasn’t until the results of the naval battle came out that the feudal lords tried to join in, but you know what kind of person Her Majesty the Empress Dowager is, right?
If you’re Cecilia, you’re not an easy person to hand over high-ranking positions to feudal lords who joined in late on a stage where the pro-Kaiser faction can make a clear contribution.
Anyway, if it’s Jill, it still makes sense to some extent…
“Haha, you all are so motivated. But the Kaiser also wanted the imperial army to set foot on that island of devils first…”
Damn it! There’s really no one to trust!
Everyone’s eyes immediately turned towards me.
Just by looking at their eyes, you can tell that they are filled with hopes that the country will step down because they want to lead the way.
It’s really boiling over.
But my answer is also set.
“Francia is the leading country of the Allied Forces, both in name and reality. “I guess we can’t give up the vanguard.”
It may seem like a sense of self-destruction is overflowing as I say this, but at this point, this is a political issue, not a military one.
If I were the commander-in-chief and handed over the vanguard without thinking, Deze would be dragged to the National Assembly and caught in the crossfire of the lawmakers.
“There is no one more suitable for the position of vanguard in the name of God than the Holy Knights!”
Oh really. What should we do with these stuck-up people?
In the end, I turned my attention to the last bastion, but Eris was already tired of this long and tedious battle of pride and had half her soul gone.
Just because she didn’t slump down in her chair, she must have been trying hard to maintain the queen’s body.
No this.
There are no dreams or hopes….
It’s good that they have decided to go on a joint expeditionary war with great momentum, but since they are representatives of a country that everyone considers inferior, they cannot be judged based on class, but they insist on each other, and there is no such thing as this.
Of course, it’s not that I don’t know. The people in this position aren’t stupid enough to be like this just out of competitive spirit.
The Holy Church is a religious denomination whose fundamental purpose is to oppose demons.
Even if it were true that the Queen of Saints had given the leadership of the Allied Powers to her monarch, Frangia, at least nominally, since she had sent the Holy Knights that she had been so involved with, she must have ordered them to perform in a way that would preserve the authority of the Pope.
Even so, Francia Germania Crafte Iberica are all countries that have been directly or indirectly harmed by the devil.
There is no country that can take a step back and accept the view from behind.
But that doesn’t mean we can’t just take control and waste time like this.
While they were arguing pointlessly, a knock came from the conference room door.
Christine and Admiral Lee entered while the eyes of the king and military commander-in-chief were all focused on them.
…I guess I left Lindsay behind, thank God.
Eris, it’s okay because you’re so open-minded, but I don’t think it’s good for other countries’ kings or commanders to see an admiral drinking vodka in broad daylight.
“The protagonists of the naval victory have arrived.”
“Such a young lady….”
“Hmm, what’s going on? We were just discussing the landing…”
Christine and Admiral Lee lightly greeted the key people in the conference room.
…I guess it was because of her mood that Christine’s eyes stayed on Jill for quite a long time.
“Excuse me for a moment. This is the result of the observation of the southern coastline of Abyss Corporation Island by the combined navies of Francia and the Eastern Empire.”
Christine, dressed in an admiral’s uniform, said that and unfolded a map.
“Oh…”
“It’s fast.”
“We selected a place where we could land, and among them, there were few places where the enemy could ambush and where it was easy for the Navy to support a large-scale landing. And among them, there is an appropriate point as a result of narrowing it down to a place where the landing force can join close.”
Christine added, tracing the map with her hand.
“In these two places, we would be able to land the advance forces of each of the two countries at the same time and join them at the midpoint, the hill, to build the gate.”
“Oh, if that happens!”
When Alejandro, the leader of the Holy Knights, smiled, Christine nodded and answered.
“The advance forces of all major countries can land at the same time and proceed with the offensive.”
Oh, then surely this slow meeting can be concluded quickly?
Oh wait.
“Admiral Aquitaine?”
“Please speak, Commander Lafayette.”
“If you look at the map, there are hills suitable for landing and joining at two points, and the terrain is so gentle that an ambush is not easy. “The enemies will not know that this is a very strong landing site, so I am concerned about strong resistance.”
After hearing my answer, Christine nodded her head and then answered with a grin.
“It is a valid concern. So, we will mobilize all ships of the line, excluding those still under repair after the last battle, and bombard the coast while the landing is in progress.”
“You mean while the landing is in progress?”
When Henry I of Krafte asked with a surprised expression, Christine secretly turned her gaze to Admiral Lee.
And Admiral Lee responded with an unwaveringly stern expression.
“The Tsar granted Admiral Vaughn full authority over the Hyeonmu Fleet. “Anyway, once the landing is over and the gate is built, the importance of the navy decreases, so if I can protect my country from those devils, I will use artillery shells or rockets without hesitation.”
During the landing, dozens of ships of the line firing guns and rockets would have been extremely expensive, but if nothing else, the Eastern Empire is huge.
“Although the consumption of ammunition will be large, we plan to procure as much as possible from the naval arsenal in Francia as much as necessary during the time required for the landing.”
Christine said that and declared confidently.
“During the landing, which will take at least six hours, the devils will not even dare to set foot on the shore.”
“Oooooh!”
“Indeed, the combined fleet that defeated ‘Ras’ was different no matter what.”
While everyone was cheering, Christine spoke again.
“step.”
“hmm?”
“For this operation, the Franzian and Eastern Empire navies suffered enormous losses and suffered heavy costs. It is also obvious that a huge amount of shells will be consumed for the landing operation. Based on this contribution to the war, I think the overall command of the Allied forces after the landing should be taken over by the Kingdom of Revolutionary Francia. What do you think?”
“Isn’t the Eastern Empire doing the same thing?”
“I agree with Admiral Aquitaine. The Tsar also heard many stories through Governor Talleyrand and said that he could trust the Marquis de Lafayette, and I also saw it with my own eyes. And…”
Admiral Lee answered lightly, stroked his beard, and then added a word.
“I think anyone can tell by looking at the progress of this meeting that the Allied Forces desperately need a clear commander.”
The Allied generals furrowed their brows but failed to make much of a rebuttal.
There are bones.
From the perspective of the Eastern Empire, whose territory is under attack right now, it would not look good for the Allied Forces to be wasting time while racing all the way across the sea and winning a naval battle at best.
“I agree. “If there is anyone other than me who is suitable to give orders to the generals of the Kingdom of Krafte, it would be the Marquis de Lafayette.”
Surprisingly, Henry I was the first to vote in favor, and the response was quick.
“Hahaha good! “You can trust brothers!”
Crocs.
“There is probably no better commander in the central continent than the Marquis Lafayette. The Empire also agrees.”
quality.
“But the Holy Knights only belong to Her Majesty the Saint King…”
Alejandro was about to put the candle on, but Eris stood up from her seat and quickly took off the cross necklace she always wore around her neck and hung it around my neck.
“On the battlefield, the Marquis de Lafayette’s will is my will.”
“It is an honor, Your Majesty.”
Eris even made the sign of the cross as if to bless me for imitating a pious saint, which she did not do. Eventually, Alejandro also prayed and reluctantly agreed.
“If that is the will of His Majesty the Queen of Saints…”
“Then we will unanimously hand over general command after the landing to the Marquis de Lafayette.”
After King Heinrich I quickly cleared things up and everyone was looking at me, I smiled lightly and said,
“Then, as suggested by the combined fleet, we will divide into two armies and proceed with a simultaneous landing. The Kingdom of Revolutionary Francia, the Holy Knights, and the Iberian Brotherhood, who are accustomed to combined arms cooperation with cavalry, will join the Western Army and the Germanian Empire, which has a relatively similar military organization and is large in size. “Let the Kingdom of Krafte take charge of the eastern army.”
“No objection.”
“Okay, as long as we are all the vanguard.”
In this way, the meeting, which had been slow until now, was settled in an instant.
I sighed in relief, turned my head, and made eye contact with Christine, who was looking at me and smiling slightly.
Oh really.
It’s hard to resist the urge to hug and kiss her right away.
It’s a problem if your wife is too talented.
