385 – Last Resistance (4)

The Archduke of Warsaw, who kissed the Archbishop and declared a war to suppress heresy, is now in a very tough situation.

No, to be more precise, we had to play the game so hard that we had to pretend that we had won.

“Reich Empire, you damn bastards of the world! Selling your soul to the devil, I, Archduke Stefan, will personally defeat you evil heretics and establish justice! Go, faithful warriors of Deus!”

At the same time, he thought to himself that if Deus had really helped him, he would have already cut off Peter Yeager’s head and hung him on the military flag…

‘Damn the Chief of Military Staff, you bastard. Well, if the castle is not captured within the next 4 days, the Allied forces will lose their momentum. Incompetent bastard of the world. Now that things are like this, shouldn’t I at least be a clown?’

The man who appealed to faith had ungodly thoughts of throwing faith to the ground, but the soldiers who heard it were charging with great momentum, unaware of the true circumstances of their superiors.

“Peter Yeager, follow that damn bastard! What can’t we do? “Kill at least one more guy!”

“Our priest said that if you die while suppressing heresy, you will definitely go to heaven! Heresy, heresy! “Kill all of those heretics!”

“Whether it is a child, a woman, or an old person, hit their neck and crush their head with a mace!”

The soldiers and people of the Reich Empire, who not only believed in devil worship but also wanted to live peacefully within the Reich Empire, felt like their clothes were bursting open when they heard their cries.

It was so outrageous that the priests of the Deus Church, whom they had believed in up to now and who had been forcibly collecting donations every year in the name of tithing, were framing them for heresy.

Peter Yeager did not miss this trend and gave orders.

“Aren’t the Allied Forces the world’s most murderous bastards who sold their souls to the devil? Have I ever done something so dirty and heretical that it is hard to put into words? Yet, these scum are shouting that they will accuse all children, old people, and virgins who should be protected as heretics and kill them all! If you surrender, you will die anyway. So hold on! Then reinforcements will come.”

‘……. Out of the 600,000 army, there are about 300,000 troops that can come here within 3 days, but to put it bluntly, we will fall within today or tomorrow.’

It was a very hopeless situation, but Peter Jaeger was not discouraged.

‘So, I deliberately sent Anya and some of the cavalry out through the tunnel leading outside the castle a few days ago. If we just hold out today, the northern cavalry will somehow come to support us.’

The soldiers belonging to the Reich Imperial Army sympathized with the saying, ‘Whether we surrender here or fight, the only way is death.’ And decided to put up desperate resistance.

“As Marshal Peter Yeager said, the only way for us is to hold out until the end and die! “Let’s risk death, or just take them with us on our way to death!”

“You bastards are worse than damned barbarians!”

“At least one more! “Kill at least one more guy!”

Now, even children as young as 10 or 8 came forward and rolled stones the size of their own bodies and pushed them under the castle wall and threw them.

The soldiers who were hit by the stones suffered severe injuries or died, with their heads and bodies broken, but this did not last long because the children were captured by enemy soldiers who had somehow climbed onto the castle wall and were soon killed.

Under the castle walls, it is common to see a mother and daughter, or a mother and son, all dead together, becoming food for maggots and bugs.

Despite this tragedy, Peter Jaeger did not view his situation pessimistically, and the Archduke of Warsaw felt good about the fact that the situation was turning towards him despite the tragedy.

The walls in the four directions – east, west, south, and north – are all believed to fall if they are shaken just a little more.

‘You can’t miss this opportunity.’

He decided to make a bold decision.

“Everyone, even my SS! Climb the wall guarded by f*cking Peter Yeager! “Everyone, except for the few staff members left in the command center, cling to the walls!”

“Your Highness, you are too reckless!”

The Grand Duke slapped the cheek of the person who said those words.

“If we miss this opportunity now, we are finished! “This is the end, you f*cking defeatist bastard!”

Following the Archduke’s order, everyone’s attention instantly turned to the northern wall guarded by Peter Yeager, and at this time, Lieutenant Colonel Landel, who was not yet dead, managed to stand up, holding on with the last of his strength in his arms.

The bones in Randel’s left and right arms, which were almost cramped, were broken again.

The extreme pain of breaking bones, a tremendous pain that was difficult to express in words, sent warning signals to his brain and nerves, but Randel tried to ignore them and took a step forward.

‘I feel like I’m going to die. No, death is already certain. But since the enemy is still fighting, I have to somehow save him even if I die.’

No one paid attention to him, who was practically a corpse.

Because everyone was blinded by the light emanating from the damned flag symbolizing the enemy of the Reich Empire on the castle wall and the bravery of Peter Jaeger.

Everyone, including the Archduke, did not even notice that someone was approaching where they were.

From noble mtl dot com

“Your Highness, our soldiers have created a stronghold on the northern wall, which was reoccupied by Peter Yeager. Success!”

“It’s only a short distance to the west wall stairs!”

“Almost all of the damned dirt blocking the gate has been removed! “I will soon use a battering ram to knock down the door!”

When I heard that there was not much time left until I beheaded Peter Jaeger, who had been fighting fiercely for about a month, in a hellish time, and took over Bastion Castle.

The Grand Duke of Warsaw was already shedding tears of joy in silence, and everyone who remained at the Allied Command Center also shed tears of emotion.

“…… Bastion Castle, it was a truly hellish war.”

“180,000 People were slaughtered by 50,000 people. “We will not be able to show our faces as officers from now on.”

“Peter Yeager, no matter how you think about it, that bastard sold his soul to the devil. Still, Deus gave us victory…”

Regardless of whether the staff came from different countries or had political interests, they were all of one mind and were narrowing the distance between themselves.

When none of them had any idea that a corpse they thought was dead was walking towards the Archduke.

Randel walked quietly and prayed.

‘Deus, if you exist, please listen to this damned bastard’s last prayer. Please let me cut off that damn Archduke’s head.’

When his vision became increasingly blurry, his legs lost strength, and he thought he might just collapse, he remembered his life.

The reason why he was able to rise to this position is because he and his family have lived a desperately poor life, not knowing when they will be able to eat their next meal, let alone living well.

Now, I can eat whatever I want, live in a comfortable and warm home, and gain the honor of being respected by others.

It was thanks to the Marshal who gave warm words of comfort to a soldier who complained about wanting to desert on Richen Hill.

‘If his lover, wife, or child are in danger, a man must go through heavy snow, dark, and dangerous roads to protect them. All the soldiers on this front, including you, are like my children. So, I will risk my life to protect even one more soldier.’

So, even though I felt that the muscles in my legs were torn and my leg bones were breaking with each step, I continued to walk.

‘I don’t mind dying here, Deus. However, only the enemy. ‘Only the person who gave my beloved family the hope they could not dream of when they were serfs… Please allow me to return from this hell alive.’

As he got closer, the dirty voice of the Archduke of Warsaw could be clearly heard even in his increasingly dark ears.

Relying on my blurred vision, I aimed the sword at his neck.

By that time, the SS and the Archduke in Warsaw had realized that Lieutenant Colonel Randel was approaching, but no one came forward to respond.

The moment we discovered it, everyone’s bodies froze.

Blood was flowing from all over the armor to the point where I wondered how I was still alive, and my arms and legs were so damaged that I wondered how I could move them.

Also, the iron armor was crumpled as if it had been hit directly by a stone. The lieutenant colonel’s condition was so dire that everyone here wondered if they were looking at the devil.

However, Randel continued to move forward, step by step, towards the Archduke in front of him.

‘Silvia, I’m sorry. When I returned from the war, I was planning to take Austin with me to the villa I had secretly bought. Also, I don’t want to raise my child as an uneducated person, so when I was worried about sending my child to a good school, I received help from the enemy and sent him to a prestigious school, but he couldn’t even attend the entrance ceremony.’

As he took one step at a time, the Archduke was so frightened that a corpse that should have already died was walking towards him and he could not even make a sound.

His body was completely frozen and he could not move, and his knights barely came to their senses and tried to kill Randel before he could get close…

Randel used the last of his strength on his already broken arm to lift the sword with difficulty.

“aaahhh, f*cking Peter Yeager has summoned the devil from hell!!!”

At the same time as he said those words, Colonel Landel mustered up his last strength and swung his sword.

At the same time, Lieutenant Colonel Landel was attacked with his sword, spear, and mace until his entire body was almost chopped to pieces, but he smiled brightly as he died.

‘Now with this, with this.’

At the same time, he remembered the conversation on Lichen Hill that had changed his life.

‘I’m scared too. I’m afraid of dying too. But the soldiers under my command are like my children. So I will risk my life to protect them.’

Then he opened his mouth and muttered in a very low voice.

“…… It is an honor to be able to die and repay that favor in some small way. Please, please return alive to your family.”

And when he had completely taken his life.

“aaah!!!”

The Archduke’s screams spread widely across the front lines.
