417 – Jericho’s Wall (5)

At dawn the day after the work was completed.

The million-strong army of the Reich Empire stood in an orderly line in front of the castle walls.

And both officers and soldiers are paying great attention to what their enemy, Peter Yeager, will say.

The siege has been going on for over a month, and we line up like this every day at this time to go out, but today I felt something special.

Peter Yeager, standing in front of everyone, looked back at his soldiers and shouted in a loud voice.

“What is your wish? What did you really hope for while you traveled a long way to get here? “Open your mouth and shout loudly!”

The soldiers of the Bastion Division shouted loudly.

“Revenge! Plural! It’s bloody revenge! “The surrendered citizens of the Grand Duchy of Warsaw will be turned into slaves, and all foolish people who do not surrender will be killed!”

Soldiers from other units of the Imperial Army also agreed.

“These are heinous people who killed my family, friends, and neighbors, and destroyed my country and hometown. “I have come to seek bloody revenge!”

“I came to kill the scum who raped and killed my wife!”

“I’m here to make those who reduced my house and village to ashes pay for their sins!”

The sound of everyone shouting loudly was heard even by the soldiers on the walls of Polsky Fortress.

“Those crazy guys. Why are you so excited again today? “I feel anxious and anxious every day.”

One complained of anxiety, biting his nails.

“I think there must be something when I see imperial soldiers doing that…”

The officers scolded those soldiers harshly.

“Go back to your place! Shut up and move! Are you planning to disobey His Highness the Archduke’s orders?”

“No matter how rampant those Reich bastards are, they will not be able to overcome this wall!”

“You guys really want to die! “You can’t make a fuss during a war without being crazy about wanting to die!”

But they were also scared inside.

After fighting head-on with Peter Jaeger of the Reich Imperial Army for the past month, I started to think that I couldn’t do it anymore.

A crazy man called the Marshal of the Reich Empire came with a mace on some days and a sword on other days, and slaughtered our troops with absolute force. At first, it was just so scary and terrifying.

At some point, I began to feel helpless that I was weak and that the Grand Duchy army could not do anything.

The high-ranking people in the leadership are fighting over each other without being able to come up with a clear solution… I am disappointed every day. There is no hope of survival at all.

‘If the Grand Duchy falls, we will also fall. So you have to hold on.’

Some officers touched their swords.

“You fell for the propaganda of the Reich Imperial Army! “You bastard, you’re a cheat, right?”

In this way, a cowardly soldier who was overlooked by an officer was summarily judged.

When the morale of the Grand Duchy of Warsaw’s army showed its lowest point, Peter Jaeger raised one hand high.

The sound of a huge trumpet spread loudly through the eardrums of everyone here.

“Stop.”

After stopping the trumpet sound, Peter Jaeger spread his arms wide this time.

“Deus said, ‘Today I will hand over this castle to you, the Reich Empire’! “Do you believe that?”

The person who said this was secretly worried that he had finally become the leader of a cult.

“I believe it!”

Except for a few who were very close to the Engineer Command and Peter Yeager and knew the inside story, the Imperial Army officers and soldiers truly believed that Deus had given them a revelation.

‘There is no way Marshal Jaeger would lie. He is clearly a revelation from God to the enemy.’

“Good. Then I will tell you again. Deus gave us this wall today. We will take possession of the walls according to His will. Archbishop, please come out and lead the clergy around the walls. Then come back here and blow the trumpet.”

“I will do so, Marshal.”

The archbishop said that and started walking around the castle.

Up until now, we had marched happily while singing the praises taught by Peter Jaeger, but…

Today, we just walked around silently and solemnly, like a memorial procession.

“Deus, Deus. “Please pay for the blood of the innocent people of the Empire killed by the Archduke here in this castle.”

“Please punish those who insulted you and condemned us as heretics.”

“Please answer our earnest prayers. Please punish them.”

As more than a thousand priests marched, muttering and cursing them as if they were reciting Buddhist prayers, the soldiers on the castle wall found it difficult to withstand it.

Aren’t these people whose belief in Deus is ingrained in the foundation of their lives, and who have not received any education for rational judgment?

These people have been told day and night that when it comes to education, they must absolutely obey the nobility and clergy.

Although these guys are said to be priests belonging to the enemy country, I heard more than a thousand priests saying these curse words in a situation where our troops were already being greatly pushed back…

“Deus, Deus. We were wrong! “Please save me!”

One soldier cried as if he was being threatened with a knife being held at his throat.

“Hell, I don’t want to go to hell! “Ugh.”

The officers wanted to shoot and kill all the priests, but they were still ‘clerics’ and could not be killed carelessly, so they just stamped their feet.

“f*ck! Those dirty priests! “If they even got a weapon, I would kill them all!”

Meanwhile, Lieutenant General Appel, commander of the Imperial Engineers, was moving around with a grin.

“Your promotion to captain is just around the corner! It’s 4 stars. Hurry! Hurry up! Stack up a lot of oil drums! “Shouldn’t we burn down all the wooden supports?”

The engineers cursed at the commander, who was excited about his greed for promotion.

“f*ck, why is a person as high as a lieutenant general acting like that? Thanks to that, my later years were very difficult. “What the f*ck is this?”

“Oh, sh*t… Why did I apply to the engineering branch instead of another branch…”

“I’ll just do infantry like everyone else. This is all because Marshal Yeager came to the academy and said things like, ‘If you want to get ahead, become an engineer.'”

The good news for them was that Lieutenant General Appel, who had 4 stars, medals, and estates flashing before his eyes, could not hear the story.

That’s right, if the platoon commander, company commander, or other soldiers complained while the ‘3-star’ was doing the hard work himself…

This is because, starting from the lieutenant general, you will become a victim of the grind and experience the grind of hell, where it would be better to die.

“Pile up a lot of oil, dry leaves, and twigs! It has to be very blazing! And are you doing well in removing the surrounding tents?”

“Yes! “There are no tents or anything that could burn within 50 meters of here!”

“Very good! Now all you have to do is prepare well before the enemy blows his trumpet! There’s no need for it, and if you complain well this time, I’ll grab your enemy by the leg of his pants and give you a big drink!”

At those words, the staff members of the Engineer Command shed tears.

I didn’t cry out of joy at the thought of receiving alcohol and meat and having a good time.

‘f*ck it, now you don’t have to work hard while being scolded by the lieutenant general…’

While the soldiers belonging to the Engineer Command were having a hard time, the priests finally finished circling the walls.

After praying out loud for several hours while circling the castle walls, my voice was almost hoarse and my stamina was all gone.

The archbishop, blinded by the desire to become a cardinal, restored their discipline.

“You will soon see for yourself the miracles of Deus! And yet you are tired! Can you tell it’s hard! Then it would be better to kick out the priest and return to prison! Trumpet! Blow the trumpet, and have the others shout like this! ‘Mace of Deus!’.”

The chaplain and priests could not even show that they were tired of the heavenly Archbishop’s thirst and shouted with trumpets.

“Mace of Deus!”

Lieutenant General Appel heard the trumpet sound and immediately gave an order.

“Everyone evacuate! Everyone evacuate! “Wizards use fireballs to make fire and blow wind into it!”

The engineers who did not want to die immediately escaped from the mine shaft.

Soon after, the wizards lit the fire.

Lieutenant General Appel saw that and opened his mouth wide.

“Look at it burning so brightly, damn. This is why the Marshal told us to remove all tents or anything that could be used as a vehicle within 50 meters.”

After blowing the trumpet for nearly an hour, a rumbling sound could be heard from under the ground on one side of the Polsky Castle wall.

“……The castle wall! The castle walls! Shaking! Deus has sent down heavenly punishment!!”

The eyes of the soldiers around the shaking castle walls were wide with surprise and fear.

“The ground beneath the castle walls is disappearing! Damage! Avoid! If you don’t want to die, jump!”

The soldiers on top of the crumbling wall pushed their fellow comrades forward, shedding tears and snot.

“Deus has abandoned us! You threw it away! Otherwise, the walls would look like this!!!”

“Stop squeezing!”

“I have to live and see first! “You son of a b*tch!”

When the Grand Duke of Warsaw and some nobles received the report, they knew immediately that Peter Jaeger had planned some strange plan.

However, although it is easy to agitate, it takes a huge amount of effort to refute and overturn it.

This scene of the castle wall being torn down has already been shown before our eyes, so even if we refute it properly, who will listen?

After a while, part of the Polsky Fortress wall collapsed and collapsed.

The Imperial soldiers were so shocked and shocked that they could not even make a sound and stared with their mouths open, while the Warsaw soldiers were so terrified that they could not say anything.

Peter Yeager raised the sword in his hand and shouted.

“Deus has handed this city over to us!”
