Possessed in a Family of War Heroes

chapter 43



43 – What are you doing? Run out quickly

“Leehi! I can’t stand it any longer! If this happens, it will be a real big deal!”

I hope that is Enter’s thumb. But sadly, that’s not the case.

On the contrary, it should be seen that he is speaking as calmly as possible. Thousands of Königssen’s are right in front of you, but you’re calm if you’re like that. Damn it

After hitting the back of the head several times, Königssen seems to have lost his eyesight.

The rear troops couldn’t do it, so these madmen eventually pulled the troops out of the front.

The ulterior motive is to wipe out the remnants of the defeated soldiers in one blow.

I wanted this. It was for this painting that I struggled for nearly a month.

Replace troops, redistribute supplies, and train in between.

It is precisely by accomplishing this feat that Erwin will be active in this great offensive.

But the problem is, damn it. That’s incredibly difficult and dangerous.

It’s only natural that you get scolded now that you hit the back of the scary man’s head with excitement.

Even if we scrape together our troops right now, all of them are at the regiment level, but they are just two divisions.

It is said that they reorganized, supplied weapons and supplies, and maintained morale, but that doesn’t make it a perfect army. There are still many areas lacking.

On the other hand, the skilled soldiers who had been driving our imperial army came rushing in.

I have to avenge what Erwin has done to me in the past, and there are delicious baits like Nana and Arra, and I’m just rushing at them with the momentum to chew them all.

This is no better. No matter how much Erwin I am, I can’t film Musou alone.

“Retreat to the last line of defense! Retreat!-“

In the meantime, I tried to avoid being surrounded by the Königssen.

Hidden here and there and did everything to secure the scattered supplies.

However, that is impossible now. The difference in the number and quality of troops could not be dealt with.

That’s how we gave up all the areas we barely maintained and shut ourselves up in the mountains.

With enemies everywhere, there is no way to secure more supplies. It seemed to dry up slowly.

I beat Königsen hard enough not too long ago, but I can’t do that anymore.

I think I’ve seen this picture somewhere. Yeah, it’s just like how I used to beat the kids at the academy.

“Ar. What is the material situation?”

“I was stocking up as much as possible inside just in case, but no matter how sparingly I use it, a week is the limit. I can’t stand any more than that.”

“… It’s a big deal.”

“It’s a big deal.”

In fact, this week’s supply is almost miraculous. Our company members gritted their teeth and gathered all the things that the units who had fled hadn’t taken care of before.

There are also materials that have been used so far, so if this isn’t a miracle, what is it?

“Erwin. How is it. Is there a gap you can squeeze through?”

In case you didn’t know, I went to Erwin, our mobile warfare magician, and asked.

I wondered if he might have a way to overcome this difficulty right away.

But everything in the world, the things that didn’t work were the things that couldn’t be done.

“I’m diligently looking for them, but they’re not easy. Looking at Jin-hyung’s saltiness, it’s clear that wherever he goes, he’ll be attacked in an instant and melted away. If we lose more troops here, we can’t even defend this place, Lihi.”

As expected, the ‘real’ ones are here. I came here because I was pissed when I saw the second team pooping!

Yes, that’s how it should be. I’m glad it worked out as planned. Yes, I’m glad… I’m not at all happy to see this.

“Leehi. An envoy has come from Königssen’s side inviting you to surrender.”

At those words, I took Erwin and Ar and headed straight to the command barracks.

There, a man wearing a Königssen officer’s uniform was standing in an upright position.

“Who is the commander here?”

At that question, Erwin suddenly looked at me. Why is this happening, Commander-in-Chief? Commander here? I’m just a person who takes bait and then works all night behind the scenes.

Perhaps realizing my intentions, Erwin sneaks in front of him.

“I am the commander here.”

“Is that so? Now, here’s a letter from my division commander. If you lay down your arms and surrender immediately, we Königssen promised to guarantee the safety of everyone here and to treat them respectfully as prisoners of war.”

“….”

“However, he also added that you should know that if you refuse, you will not be accepted even if you surrender afterwards.”

That bastard, he’s just talking loudly so that all our soldiers can hear it.

Your commanders are wasting their chance to surrender to take care of their petty pride. Did you secretly order them to engage in psychological warfare like this? These motherf*ckers for real.

I want to blow that muzzle off my heart, but I’m holding back because it’s an envoy.

No matter how much you don’t like Königsen’s things, you have to keep what you want to protect. The moment you touch the envoy, it’s no different than putting sh*t on our family’s honor.

“Surrender, do it. Are you surrendering to us?”

“Please stop meaningless resistance. There is no support whatsoever for you. If we fight here, we will all die. Our Königssen will treat you as a prisoner, so don’t lose your life in vain. May all of you descend. You guys have already fought valiantly.”

“….”

“The Empire will not be able to say anything just because you surrender.”

Yes. Our soldiers fought valiantly. He fought without sparing his life.

As a result, we even achieved our goal. So it’s never in vain to die.

If we surrender now, we will really make those sacrifices in vain.

The Empire won’t say anything if we surrender.

But the comrades who left first will surely hit the ground and wail.

I don’t like it, I can’t stand it, so I don’t surrender.

“What can I do? What answer can I go with?”

At the words of the envoy, Erwin suddenly turned his head towards me.

I wondered why that guy was doing that, but looking into his eyes, he soon found out why.

He has something he wants to say, but he must be asking if he can really do it.

I nodded his head lightly to mean whatever you want. Then Erwin grinned and turned his gaze back to the Königssen envoy.

“Please tell the commander over there who recommended an honorable surrender.”

And Erwin shouted so loudly that all of our soldiers could hear.

“Suck your dick!!!”

*

Erwin’s words were refreshing. Our soldiers also shouted at the cry.

Only one, Königssen’s envoy, went back with a sh*t-chewed expression on his face.

What happened next… Well, as expected, Königssen’s fierce attack.

“The East is about to collapse!”

“Stop it!”

“All reserve forces deployed!”

There is nowhere to run. No surrender. But there were too many enemies.

Thanks to enemies attacking from all sides, it was impossible to stay comfortable even for a day.

And just this morning, the eastern defense line was finally breached.

“….”

Tomorrow is the end. Really, really can’t do more.

It is said that the defense line is supposed to collapse, but in a state of siege like now, it is death.

Suddenly, regret rushes in. Did you do anything wrong? Did I come here and get this result?

As it is, Ervin successfully holds the enemies down until allied support arrives.

He almost died a few times in the process, but he didn’t really lose his life.

But now… No. Precisely because of me, because I have the commander-in-chief’s son, the Königssen guys are rolling their eyes and rushing like a wave.

As expected, it seems to have come up with a futile strategy. I should have just left Erwin on his own.

Even though I knew that intervening in an incident could have both positive and negative effects, could this be the result of not being able to tolerate the moment?

“Leehi.”

When I turned my head, Ar was approaching. Like everyone else, she was very haggard, but she still couldn’t get rid of her beauty.

“Ar.”

“… Will today be the last?”

I know all too well what the last one means. So, I couldn’t answer.

It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have touched you Just sit back quietly and work—

“It’s not your fault.”

“Huh?”

“Look at his expression. You are the one who blames yourself. Company commander Erwin said that. Thanks to your stepping up, we were able to do more damage. If it wasn’t for you, the enemies wouldn’t have been able to post this much while targeting you.”

“….”

“So it’s not your fault. It’s just war. When you push, you push, and when you push, you have no choice but to be pushed.”

At those words, I just laughed without realizing it. Obvious stuff. But… It is comforting.

No one else but Ariete, especially since that woman said that.

“I don’t want to be a prisoner.”

Aar, who has come to the side, whispers quietly.

“I like you. Leah. As a woman, as a man.”

“Ar.”

“Not that I want your answer either. Just, ugh… Before I die, I just want to kiss someone I like. Can you do it?”

A request that I would have hesitated to ask normally, but it is not difficult at all now.

Turn her body around and grab her hand. Warm. Look up It smells good.

At first, I was curious. Then, a sense of kinship, and then a crush.

I was interested in this woman who was similar to me but different.

She was a wonderful woman. She was very, very cool, unlike me who had only been paying attention.

From the hand to the shoulder, from the shoulder to the warm cheek again. Hold on to her like that.

The moment you’re about to do something that might really be your first and last kiss.

Koo Goo Goo!―

A huge fire soared in Königsen’s camp, which was besieging us.

A moment when you suddenly stop what you were doing and quickly look away.

“Hey. You.”

Suddenly, his face jerked! She went back and something soft and warm hit her lips.

*

A month has passed since Königssen’s Great Summer Offensive.

Finally, the allied forces succeeded in opening a hole in the enemy’s offensive and creating a salient.
