EP.148

Jungfrau Plain.

As it is a country with huge and beautiful mountain ranges, it is a place where the cool and dry wind brushes your cheeks and the clean air through your nose makes you feel good even in April.

Originally, it would have been a peaceful plain where wild animals such as deer, cows, wild horses, rabbits, and squirrels roamed around.

Here now, a total of about 20,000 soldiers are sharpening their swords in their hearts to kill each other.

And Major General Peter Jaeger of the 7th Division of the Reich Empire, who came in to occupy this land, is also glaring at the enemy soldiers at a distance where the arrows cannot reach, as if he will kill them at any moment.

They did not introduce formal training like the imperial army, so their arms and legs did not have the perfect angles, but their gait and movements showed a lot of leisure.

Silver light was shining on the weapons and armor, as if they had taken great care to survive.

‘Even though the enemy has no knights in this battle, it will definitely not be easy.’

As Director Jaeger lightly ground his teeth under his helmet, Lieutenant Colonel Anastasia next to him asked.

“Director, are you a little worried?”

Director Yeager could have bluffed and acted brave in response to questions from his trusted subordinate.

Thinking that there was no need for Lieutenant Colonel Anastasia, who truly respected and followed him, he sighed and spoke grumblingly.

“I said in front of the officers and soldiers that I would be able to easily defeat them, but it is true that I am a little worried. No, to be honest, I was always nervous no matter what battle I had to fight in. “I doubt whether I can really win this battle.”

“But you always win, right? “You will win this time too.”

“That’s right. So, I have to do my best to avoid losing. “In order to win, my role is to give the best orders after thinking thousands of times on the battlefield.”

After hearing this, Anastasia once again felt a dizzying charm at the unexpected appearance of the respected director, who always stood confidently in front of everyone.

‘My father, who was the leader of the tribe, always pretended to be strong in front of everyone. Behind the scenes, he was afraid of defeat and only after thinking tens of thousands of times did he decide and suggest the most correct path.’

This is because the old image of my father that remained in my memory overlapped with Director Yeager.

On the other hand, I felt that Lieutenant Colonel Laura, who was married to Director Jaeger, had a monopoly on this side of the Director that she did not show to anyone.

I felt just a little bit jealous.

Furthermore, he also has a small wish to support the director’s vulnerable parts.

“Then let’s end the small talk now. “Lieutenant colonel, when I send a signal with a flag from behind, you will play with the crossbowmen and wizards behind the enemy.”

“Yes, I understand. “I wish you good luck, Director.”

“No, Colonel, don’t get hurt either.”

When Anyastasia returned to command the cavalry under her command, Major General Jaeger put aside all his worries, drew his sword, and shouted loudly.

“They cowardly launched a surprise attack as soon as we entered this land, but we, brave soldiers of the empire, fended them off without any damage. What this means is that the Reich Imperial Army is much stronger than the Swiss bandits.”

In fact, in terms of national power, the Reich Empire, which is better centralized and has a larger territory and larger population, is bound to be much stronger than the Duchy of Switzerland.

The mercenaries, the mainstay of Switzerland’s military power, are, to put it slightly exaggerated, monsters who have developed their fighting skills by rolling around on the battlefield almost every day.

Strictly speaking, the Duchy of Switzerland is slightly stronger in terms of combat power even after combining knights and archers, but Director Jaeger ignored that fact and spoke.

Because in his view, what was important for the Reich Imperial Army now was the courage to fight the enemy, whether based on confidence or not.

The job of the division commander, Peter Yeager, was to make the soldiers forget their fears.

“Therefore, I, Major General Peter von Jaeger, dare to declare in the name of God: Deus is with us. All you have to do is follow the orders of me and the commanders. “We will definitely win.”

After making such an arrogant declaration, he used his sword as a baton to point it at the army of the Duchy of Switzerland in front of him and gave orders.

“Crossbowmen and wizards, move in front of the infantry! As you advance, shoot arrows and magic at the enemy without stopping! The infantry follows them slowly, keeping pace with them. Anyone who lags behind without a reason will have their head cut off!”

When Major General Yeager gave the order, the riders signaled with flags, and buglers and drummers (soldiers who played drums) delivered instructions to about 8,000 soldiers belonging to the 7th Division.

Then, the order was quickly spread to each regiment, battalion, company, and platoon, and the soldiers began to change their formations quickly but without confusion, maintaining order.

“Crossbowmen and wizards from the regiment, move forward! Suppress the enemy soldiers approaching from the front!”

“The Pekel Battalion falls back. “Get back!”

“I will personally kill the bastard who is so scared that he doesn’t fall off his feet! So, if you don’t want to die by my sword, just walk away!”

As I watched the soldiers of the 7th Division led by Major General Jaeger slowly approach the direction of the Swiss army.

Count Ticino, who commanded 9,000 troops of the Principality, clicked his tongue and thought.

‘I thought he wasn’t an ordinary guy ever since he repelled our surprise attack in a completely unpredictable situation. That damned Major General Jaeger’s army is no joke. As the Duke said, that bastard must be defeated here.’

After organizing his thoughts, Count Ticino raised his voice to raise the morale of the Swiss army.

“The proud free mercenaries of Switzerland, the peace-loving peasants who have protected these rugged mountains for hundreds of years! Now the evil Reich Empire invaders are approaching you. What should I do?!”

At those words, everyone, regardless of whether they were soldiers, officers or nobles, shouted loudly.

“We must protect the fields and livestock property that our families and ancestors risked their lives to create!”

“We will risk our lives to protect the mercenaries who risked their lives to protect their hometown so that they can rest in peace when they return!”

“We will kill the oppressors who trample on freedom!”

When Count Ticino heard the story, he felt his heart swell, and he expressed that emotion in his words and shouted.

“good night. Then fight without shame, just like you learned! We are silent like them, but as the people and soldiers of Switzerland, your courage, tenacity, and honed skills will be stronger than those of cowards wrapped in iron! “Don’t be afraid, go out and fight!”

The Swiss soldiers responded with cheers and shouts, even though Count Ticino did not give any orders.

Nobles and mercenary commanders who had experienced hundreds of battles now began to give instructions on various measures to create the optimal formation they should create.

“The Reich Empire pigs are now approaching with crossbowmen and wizards at the forefront. So, we must respond by using those who can attack from a distance at the forefront!”

“I don’t think there will be any idiot who stops his steps because he is afraid of getting hit by those arrows! “Unless you’re extremely lucky, you’ll get hit by armor and bounce off, right?”

“Pike soldiers unite more! “To the level of touching your wife in bed!”

So the Swiss soldiers began to prepare for war, following the commander’s instructions mixed with vulgar stories and the nobles’ elegant words.

They also began to move step by step in the direction where the Reich soldiers were approaching.

When the distance between them became closer, Major General Jaeger and Count Ticino gave orders to the troops they each commanded.

“Shoot arrows and magic generously at the barbarian bandits of Switzerland! “Kill them all!”

“The pigs that have escaped the walls of the Reich Empire will be grilled on skewers! Treat them generously and generously!”

Then, countless arrows and magic flew into the sky, each looking for their enemy.

The commanders of both armies saw this and gave orders.

“Keep your head down, look at the ground, and move forward! “Don’t think about avoiding it for no reason!”

“You can definitely return alive! If you look around with unnecessary worries, you will all die. Let’s just look at the ground and move forward!”
