72 – Eradication of the Toner tribe (1)

Office of the President of the General Staff College.

“Loyalty! As of this moment, I report that Professor Peter Yeager of the General Staff College has completed his tenure as Professor with honor!”

When I said that, the president in front of me said with a questioning smile.

“You worked really hard for two years.”

“Thanks to the president, I was able to fulfill my role as a professor even though I was inexperienced until the end. Thank you so much.”

“no. Rather, now that it’s time to let go, I feel like I should have helped more.”

Strictly speaking, the president was the one who knew that I would leave the university two years after I took office and go to another place of work.

I did not directly or indirectly help in getting promoted as a professor at the Staff College or living as a professor.

However, he recognized the value of the strategy report and thesis on how to subdue Ludvik, who was moving in the north.

By delivering it directly to the Minister of Military Affairs, the imperial army’s supply system was changed from a local requisition-oriented one to a form of supplying by continuously sending convoys from the supply base to the local area.

Also, the policy of making the northern tribes fight each other was also accepted, so Ludvik couldn’t build his strength that much because of the civil war between the barbarians.

In the process, the president and I became quite close.

“No, it really helped me a lot.”

“Thank you for putting gold on my face. until there. I’ll stop talking about it now.”

Hearing that, I gave a final salute and was about to leave.

The president said as he took out some papers that appeared to be personnel orders from his desk drawer and placed them on the desk.

“I am supposed to deliver your personnel appointment. wait a moment.”

Having said that, he opened the gold-rimmed scroll and read.

“Imperial calendar, December 24, 223, Personnel Order No. 2485. Lieutenant Colonel Peter Yeager, a professor at the Staff College, will be relieved of his professorship as of today. During his tenure, he taught students well and highly praised his achievements so far, promoting him to the rank of colonel. I order you to be appointed as the commander of the 24th Regiment of the Northern Army for the Kopenhavn Peninsula.”

From the time he was appointed as a professor at the Staff College, it was almost certain that he would be promoted when he was discharged if he performed well during his tenure as a professor.

However, when I heard that I had become a colonel, my heart was overflowing with emotion more than when I was promoted from captain to major.

The privileges and treatment given when you become a colonel are the same as when you were a lieutenant colonel, and if you take just one more step here, you can become a brigadier general and wear a star.

Especially in the north, the size of the tribes is so high, there are times when the regimental commander has to go alone and raise the battle record.

As before, I can plan and complete the battle myself, rather than fighting the enemy only after being interfered with and getting permission from someone else.

So is it? My eyes began to glow uncontrollably, and I could even feel the blood rushing to my face from excitement.

“This guy is so funny. He was promoted to colonel at the age of only 23, so he was a person who seemed like he wouldn’t shed a drop of blood even if stabbed with a knife. Hearing about his promotion, he loved it like my grandson who couldn’t contain his joy after receiving a toy.”

“One more step and you’re a general.”

“That’s right. And Major Werner, Major Marco, who served under you in the past, Major Dennis, who was in charge of the wizard company commander, and Captain Laura. Everyone is going to be organized into your regiment, I put some effort into this.”

I expected that even Laura would take Count Benner’s notice and somehow arrange them under me, but it’s no way that even three people who were company commanders were put under me.

Even if this place wasn’t just in front of the president, I honestly want to pinch my cheek and check whether it’s a dream or not.

That’s also because it’s much easier to work with subordinates who proved their abilities while working together as a battalion commander.

In addition, the president told me that you had a lot of trouble giving good lectures, and that there were some professors secretly looking through your lecture notes written by students.

After an additional 10 minutes of conversation, the president handed over the personnel order in my hand and said,

“Give it to me directly with your own hands. Wouldn’t you like that more?”

“I see, President.”

And that evening I drank like crazy with four graduates of the General Staff College who were and will be my subordinates.

As a side note, all three of them except for Laura used to drink until they passed out when they drank in front of me.

After entering the General Staff College, when Laura was in the seat, she only drank until she collapsed, and everyone jumped up and went home.

Every time I leave these words.

“Professor, then you can rest in peace tonight.”

…. why?

Although the appearance of the Reich Empire and its surrounding states closely matched the borders of modern Europe, things like climate and specialties often did not.

Representatively, the Francois Republic, located in France, did not produce very good wine, and the Reich Empire rather did well and had a favorable environment for farming.

In addition, the northern part of the Reich Empire, located in Germany’s position on Earth, was very cold and barren like Siberia or Manchuria.

And as for why I’m talking about this…

“I’m really going to freeze. It’s only late autumn now, what kind of weather is this here? It is colder than the capital’s January weather. My nose is frozen and I don’t think it’s mine from someday, but it’s easy to become very ugly because my nose keeps flowing down. Acquire.”

It is because I came to the north to report to the commander of the Northern Army and now I am almost there.

“Isn’t the regiment commander just as cold as us? So, didn’t I tell you to buy the fur coats that those nobles wear in the capital?”

“Still, aren’t we almost there? But they say fur is cheaper in the north, so I should buy one.”

“That is a wise idea.”

While chatting with Major Werner and other subordinates, I saw a huge castle covered in snow right in front of me.

On the top of the wall, there were soldiers standing guard and soldiers clearing the top of the wall with shovel and shovel, which was common in the military.

“Hold the shovel, stand in a line, push it, and throw it out of the wall!”

“Damn why did I go over to the conscription officer then? The north is also a place where people live, so I applied because I was told that I don’t have to worry too much, so I’m going through all this hard work.”

“Sergeant Randell, you keep saying that. I know that you are full of thoughts to support Sergeant Sergeant.”

Guys like Laura, Werner, and Marco looked at it casually, but for me, who died right before entering the military academy in Korea and was reincarnated, it was a scene that I could relate to quite a bit.

This is because my older brother had to serve in the military in Cheorwon, so he told the story dozens of times whenever he had the chance that he almost died while clearing the snow called ‘garbage falling from the sky’ in the winter.

Looking around, I saw trees that usually grow in cold regions, such as pine trees and various conifers, and I could hear wild animals crying everywhere.

Perhaps it’s the barking of a fox or a wolf, and if you go into the woods, wouldn’t there be wild beasts like a giant bear or a Russian deer?

“It is a rough place.”

“I lived near the north, and this much is nothing. At least this is where the Northern Army Headquarters is located, so it’s better. If you go to the forest next to the nearby village, there are many foxes.”

“Major Werner said that he had served in the North. Then what would you say is the most important thing to be careful about here?”

“The most important thing is to dress warmly just to not freeze to death, Captain. And the soldiers here have very rough personalities. It is also necessary to flog those who do not listen.”

Ordinary officers do not directly beat soldiers even if they become second lieutenants because of dignity issues.

I don’t know what the heck is this place where common sense doesn’t work.

Northern Army Corps Commander’s Office.

“Loyalty! This is Peter Yeager, who has been appointed as the commander of the 24th Regiment of the Northern Army. And the four people who came with me are officers assigned under my command.”

“Yes, loyalty. I am Lieutenant General Matthias von Northenburg, commander of the Northern Corps. For now, except for Colonel Yeager, the rest of the officers should go out and wait.”

Usually, when an officer of a major or higher comes, it is common for the corps commander to give a word of encouragement…

I had such a question, but since the highest rank here is the corps commander, Laura, Werner, Marco, and Dennis, excluding me, quietly left the office.

After that, the corps commander looked at me and sighed.

“In normal times, he would give me a greeting of encouragement, but I can’t afford to do that right now. I’ll start with the conclusion. Damn Ludvik bastard is setting up and rambling like a mad dog. I will simply spread the situation, so listen carefully.”

ah! It’s not a normal situation, it’s a really dangerous situation.
