EP.377
The next night, Bastion Castle.
General wizards, except for commander-level wizards such as the wizard leader or vice-leader, were forced to climb up the castle wall on a moonlit night without even knowing why due to Peter Yeager’s order that came out of nowhere.
Since there was no specific word on what to do, most wizards had the dissatisfied thought, ‘I have to go out to fight again tomorrow, so I can rest at night, but what am I doing?’
Accordingly, some of them muttered grumbling as they followed the wizard officers up the stairs.
“Hah, what on earth is our enemy thinking, letting us climb the castle wall at this late hour of the night? “Do you know anything, Sergeant Bohrmann?”
“I don’t know, Warrant Officer. “After listening to the story, it seems that officers below the battalion commander were not told what to do.”
“You need to tell me what the f*ck you’re doing and bring me up. “Marshal, I heard you sometimes go too far when you do this.”
“Still, the enemy is someone who risks his life to fight for us, so we have no choice but to trust and follow him, right? “If you listen to the story, the Marshal alone cut down nearly 30 people yesterday.”
If other high-ranking generals other than Marshal Jaeger had summoned them, the wizards would have climbed the castle wall while swearing.
In this castle, more than half of the people would believe Peter Yeager even if he said he was baking bread out of clay.
Everyone assumed that there must be a reason for whatever they suddenly ordered on a moonlit night, and as a result, all that was left was regret and regret for not being taught the ‘reason’.
The senior wizard called Warrant Officer smiled and said.
“30 people? Hey, you poor bastard. This probably means that even during that hectic time, the recorder cut down and killed as many as ’30’ people. “Maybe 100 people were cut down?”
“… Is that something a person can do?”
“Marshal Jaeger is not like us.”
While the wizards were chatting, they went up and there were officers commanding archers and gunners with marksman badges standing at a distance from each other.
Since the battalion commanders of the wizard battalion already knew what to do, they began the arrangement by telling the soldiers under their command exactly where to go.
After the deployment took about an hour, the archers and officers spoke to the wizards.
“The 15th Wizard Battalion, please stand facing northeast. “Ah, just turn your body a little more to the left.”
“The 18th Wizard Battalion, please remain facing the front of the castle wall.”
“We ask that the battalion commanders of each battalion follow our instructions. From now on, we will start using long-range attacks using magic.”
The wizards who heard that thought to themselves, ‘That’s what you mean? Is it a fart? You have to do what needs to be done. The fireball range is limited to 400 meters. ‘What on earth are we going to do now?’ I thought this, but…
Still, they are giving instructions according to Marshal Peter Yeager’s orders, and if you don’t follow them, it will be considered defiance and you will become a headless ghost. Everyone followed their instructions without saying a word.
Finally, the high-ranking officers in charge of fire control and even Peter Yeager arrived.
Peter Yeager spoke solemnly to his soldiers before starting the attack.
“Wizards of the Reich Empire, from now on we will rewrite the war history and military science of the continent of Europa. “I will teach the Allied bastards what true education is.”
Then, he waved the marshal’s baton and gave the order to hoist the marshal’s flag. When the wizards saw the confidence and anticipation in the appearance of ‘Peter Yeager’ going about the operation, they buried their doubts and prepared to follow the given order.
Those selected as sharpshooters and archery officers began to think about what angle to shoot the fireball at to increase its range based on their experience.
“… Since it’s 400 meters, wouldn’t it be okay to hold it at about a 30 degree angle and shoot? “Then it will fly about 650 meters.”
“The enemy has built a densely packed dormitory and warehouse for those idiots anyway, so just shoot at the maximum range. Let’s set it to 45 degrees and 45 degrees.”
“All right. Then, I will set it to 45 degrees and check how far it flies and adjust the angle.”
After the agreement was reached, the archer division chief and a colonel with a sharpshooter insignia approached and spoke.
“I think you can order it to be fired at 45 degrees and then adjusted at the archer officer’s discretion.”
Peter Yeager was able to roughly establish the concept of how to use artillery, but he believed that archers would know better how to fire fireballs at long distances.
“I will do that. For the first shot, fire the magic at a 45 degree angle! 45 degree angle! Afterwards, the firing angle will be determined at the discretion of the officers assigned to each wizard battalion. Marshal Vaughan will only give orders to fire!”
The order was delivered in an instant.
“16 Wizard Battalion! 16 Wizard Battalion, raise your wand at a 45 degree angle right now! “If you can’t get the angle right, go back and prepare!”
“This is Marshal Jaeger’s order. 45 degree angle! Maintain the angle and start chanting! “The launch order will be issued soon!”
“Don’t think about anything, just follow orders! Then you’re halfway there!”
So the wizards began to move, wondering if this would actually work, except for the high-ranking people.
Soldiers and civilians who were supposed to be sleeping noticed the commotion on a moonlit night and looked up at the castle walls to see what the wizards were up to at night.
“… What on earth are you wizards doing over there?”
“How do I know that? But I have good ears, so I can slightly hear what they are saying… Let me see, they say to shoot magic at a 45 degree angle?”
“… I may be an ignorant person, but isn’t it common sense that magic is
thrown in a straight line? “Is Marshal Jaeger ‘Jaeger’ again?”
“I don’t know. If I knew that, I would have already been made a sergeant.”
Meanwhile, Peter Jaeger felt proud of being the first person on the continent of Europa to fire magic like a cannon and felt his heart grow.
‘It can be said that the right time to use artillery is to fire wildly from a distance where enemy attacks cannot reach and only allies can attack. Even though I have never operated a gun before.’
He also thought that the parabolic shooting method used by the Imperial Army wizards tonight would greatly contribute to the development of mathematics in this world.
Since this was the case throughout Earth’s history, it was assumed that it would be the same in the Reich Empire.
“Turn the enemy camp into a sea of fire!”
When the command was issued, more than 2,000 fireballs appeared in the sky near Bastion Castle, turning the dark night sky red.
**
On the other hand, the Allied soldiers were either sleeping in the barracks without paying any attention to what was going on, or talking loudly over drinks and snacks with the connivance of their platoon commanders.
“There’s no need for it, and when I get back, I’ll confess to Lucia first. After confessing, just try to succeed. “Before the wedding, make sure to stamp it so others won’t be able to get it.”
“Why would a man of such a young age, with no money saved, marry Lucia? “Just grab onto anyone wearing a skirt, you idiot.”
“no. “I’m the type of person who picks on faces.”
“Lucia is a girl who will become a nobleman’s concubine and help the family. I will marry you, you idiot.”
They shouldn’t be drinking during the war, but since they are being cornered so unilaterally as to be massacred by Peter Yeager, they have no choice but to relieve their mental fatigue like this.
Also, from a common sense perspective, it is impossible for some crazy person to pull off a night attack while fighting with only 50,000 troops, and there is an open plain of about 600 meters between Bastion Castle and the Allied Forces camp… so if they
keep their guard up properly, they can Since there was no chance of being attacked, they could drink openly at night with Captain Greenwich’s tacit approval…
Although these soldiers did not know the details, they were just chatting and drinking to forget for a moment the fear that they might die tomorrow. .
Meanwhile, one of the soldiers looked up at the sky and suddenly started laughing.
“Hey recruit, are you crazy? “Why are you laughing so hard all of a sudden?”
The new recruit said, pointing to Bastion Castle.
“Look over there. Isn’t that Peter Yeager idiot throwing fireballs in this direction? “It probably won’t even reach this far.”
“f*ck you. “It’s going to be so annoying.”

“Why does it bother you?”
“You bastard with a head full of flour. There’s no way a fireball would reach here, but if they do shit like that, we’ll have to be on high alert at night.”
The atmosphere darkened after those words, but their thoughts were still the same, regardless of whether they were officers or soldiers.
‘Peter Yeager, you idiot, why are you shooting fireballs that can’t even reach you in the middle of the night?’
Contrary to their expectations, the fireball fired by Peter Yeager flew over a distance of 600 meters and flew right over their heads.
When the completely unexpected attack came, everyone, regardless of whether they were soldiers or officers, let out screams.
Peter Jaeger f*cking uses the devil’s spell!!
Why is the fireball flying 600 meters, damn it!
Save me, save me, damn it!
