I Became a Genius Commander at the Academy

EP.422

When he swung the sword down, the baron’s head fell off and rolled on the floor, and blood splashed onto Han Sen and other ambassadors.

“Hee hee!”

Although the ambassadors themselves were not stabbed, they convulsed like little girls who had seen a cockroach.

His face has turned completely white, and his mouth has opened so wide that I wonder if his jaw bone is going to come out, and he is shaking.

Is this your first time seeing someone fall to death right in front of your eyes?

Or do they misunderstand that I might kill them like that?

First of all, I have no intention of killing the ambassadors, so I have to moderately appease them.

“Ah, Ambassador Hansen.”

When Han Sen heard me, he trembled and responded.

“Yes ah yes? Marshal, what are you trying to say?”

“Why are you so worried? “Are you saying that because you think I might kill our ambassadors?”

As soon as he heard what I said, he burst into laughter.

“no. Why would I think the enemy would commit such an atrocity? “It’s just that I was so surprised that he cut down a nobleman to death right before my eyes.”

There is something I learned while serving in the military for over 20 years.

It is said that human eyes do not lie, but now this guy’s eyes are telling him that he is lying.

As the pupils cause earthquakes in all directions.

‘Well, it’s advantageous to misunderstand me a little now.’

From now on, I need to clearly show that I am a crazy person through acting.

“nobility? “Are you saying that this person who just died was a nobleman?”

“Yes, that’s true, but…”

“Huh, Ambassador of the Grand Duchy of Austria?”

The suddenly appointed Austrian ambassador looked at me with wide eyes.

“yes?”

“Are the nobles of countries excommunicated by the Vatican nobles? Or are you a pagan?”

After hearing those words, the Austrian ambassador broke into a cold sweat and was unable to answer easily.

“Didn’t Deus himself show his great power this time and collapse the walls of Polsky Castle? Even without the excommunication, aren’t these already cursed pagans who deserve death by Him? “How great was His anger to show such a miracle?”

Of course, this miracle was created by me replacing Captain Appel (Jin) and the engineers at the Engineer Command.

The castle wall has already completely collapsed and all kinds of performances have been shown to create a miracle, so even if there is suspicion, it will not be easy to prove manipulation.

I stood right in front of the Austrian ambassador, holding a blood-stained sword in one hand, looked him straight in the eyes, and said,

“By the way. “Why do you say that heretics are nobles?”

The Austrian ambassador was unable to give a proper answer, with only onomatopoeia coming out of his mouth such as ‘uh uh.. uh’.

I stared into his eyes for five minutes without saying anything.

As time passed, the Austrian ambassador’s eyes began to shake more and more as he tried to avoid my gaze, and tears welled up, and eventually he began to tremble as tears continued to roll down his cheeks.

I feel a little wet under my feet. Could it be that I’m tired?

Finally, the ambassador shook his head vigorously and said:

“no! no! However, I was surprised to learn that those Warsaw bastards who had properly served Deus for hundreds of years were heretics. I only said that because I’m not used to it yet. Hahaha, whatever.”

I extended my left hand to him to shake his hand.

“Is that so? I also misunderstood that our ambassador thought that the heretics lying dead over there were brothers who believed in Deus just like us.”

“No, I said something wrong. Please do not misunderstand.”

And I immediately took the smile off my face and said,

“But what?”

At those words, the ambassadors’ expressions suddenly hardened.

The atmosphere became cold, as if it were a field hit by a midwinter blizzard.

“Among the Allied forces I dealt with not long ago, there were also soldiers from Austria, Stockholm and Czechia, right? “It is truly a pity that you agree with the heretics.”

“……”

“It’s just that our empire is much stronger than your three countries combined, so I’ll leave it at that.”

It is something that cannot be done diplomatically, but considering the activities and achievements shown by our imperial army, it is enough for now.

In the first place, they were enemies until a peace treaty was signed with these bastards.

“Does it seem difficult to me to turn your country into a ‘bastion’?”

Ambassador Hansen tried to point a finger at me.

“If you don’t put that finger down right now, I will break it. And I will declare war on the Kingdom of Stockholm. “It means that two years from now, we will mobilize 1 million troops to attack the Kingdom of Stockholm like we do now.”

“Another million-strong army? Are you kidding? Haha, isn’t that funny…”

“Stop bragging. Deus is on our side, but that means he can raise more than 3 million armies. Two years later we will destroy Stockholm, two years later we will destroy Austria, and two years later we will destroy Czechia. Of course, I will always be at the forefront, and the Bastion Division, which grinds its teeth just by looking at your faces, will always be at the forefront.”

When I glanced at Captain Carol, he chuckled and said.

“In Bastion, a 5-year-old child was bleeding to death after being stabbed all over his body, but he stuck a dagger in the foot of an enemy soldier and fought until the end. “I doubt whether there will be such a brave and loyal child in your country.”

The ambassadors began to pour out cold sweat like rain, as if they had imagined the scene.

“You’re lying, right? It must be a lie… How can a 5-year-old be so fierce?”

“Haha, that captain is very pretentious.”

“……. Yes?”

I laughed and answered those words.

“That 5-year-old child’s name is Ain. “The imperial army investigated the facts and found that they actually fought that hard.”

Even though there was no threat, Ambassador Hansen began shaking again.

I clapped my hands to brighten the mood.

“Now, let’s stop talking about the past when the atmosphere got sour. What are the terms of the peace treaty? 500,000 gold for 6 duchies in each country?”

The ambassadors shook their heads at those words.

“We, the Grand Duchy of Austria, will compensate you with 8 duchies and 600,000 gold.”

“We, the Kingdom of Stockholm, will give you 9 duchies…”

“We, Czechia, will give you 10 duchies.”

Although there is no duke in the Grand Duchy, the term duchy exists based on the size of the territory and population, so such a statement is possible.

Well, since we’ve completely conquered the baseline, we should try to bounce back now, right?

I turned my back after hearing that.

“Are you just trying to avoid war on those terms? That’s it.”

Then the ambassadors grabbed my shoulders and slumped down.

The corner of his mouth quirked up for a moment, but he calmed his expression so that it wouldn’t be noticeable and showed an annoyed look.

“No, just prepare for war. Because our empire cannot negotiate peace under such conditions. “It would be better to just get ready to be ‘Bastioned’ and get started.”

Ambassador Hansen gritted his teeth and lowered his head.

“Twelve! 12 duchies!!! How about 1 million gold?”

If you spend 1 million gold on 12 duchies, you’ll have approximately 36 duchies, so there’s nothing wrong with that…

but if I’m the boss, I have to act properly.

“Take two more and make it 2 million gold.”

“Isn’t that too harsh?”

“Then what else is there other than going to war? There is nothing bad about our empire, we just need to destroy it and take over everything.”

Having said this, honestly, I have no intention of continuing the war any further.

The Empire has suffered a huge blow just by blocking the Allied Forces and mobilizing 1 million troops this time.

If we raise another large army here, the imperial economy could end up like Germany, which was hit by World War I.

However, if they find out about the situation, they will use that as an excuse to negotiate in a way that is advantageous to them, so I will have to force them.

In times like this, we have to bluff because the enemy will think we are stronger than we thought.

“All right! “I will give 2 million gold to the 14 duchies.”

I snorted at those words.

“Get 500,000 more gold.”

“Why on earth are you changing the conditions so quickly?”

“If it’s unfair, you should win.”

Ambassador Hansen trembled as he uttered such an obvious truth.

The other ambassadors shook their heads and said that this was not a good idea, but Hansen, the Stockholm ambassador, eventually sighed and said.

“I will cede 14 duchies for 2.5 million gold.”

With those words, I shook his hand, indicating that the treaty had been concluded.

Han Sen had no choice but to extend his hand to me and shake my hand.

“I hope that the Kingdom of Stockholm, the Grand Duchy of Czechia, and the Grand Duchy of Austria will continue to get along well with each other. Then how happy Deus will be.”

I bowed my head to the ambassadors and greeted them politely.

“Then I’ll see you again in a few days when we officially sign a peace agreement.”

Then the ambassadors left the room first, and after a while I came out too, and only then did I sigh.

“Ha, you ripped off more than I thought. After all, people often have to know how to bluff. Isn’t that right, Captain Karl?”

Carl looked dumbfounded after hearing what I said.

“Are you bluffing?”

I smiled and answered.

“In life, a man must know how to show off sometimes. “Except when he seduces the girl he has a crush on.”
