Rasputin of the East

＜ Episode 177 >

Port Said, Egypt, Russian-occupied territory

“He’s coming.”

“What are you coming for?”

Ungern muttered openly.

“haha…..”

After a while, a train slid into the simple station.

The man, who had been walking down the train car, made eye contact with Ungern.

“Welcome to the first rank of ‘mercenaries’ from the United States. This is Roman von Ungern-Sternberg.”

“George Smith Patton Jr. I’m in charge of the 1st rank of the volunteers.”

“Hmm, in the United States, I know you are a brigadier general.”

“Yeah, but we’re not federal troops, we’re just militia.”

“good. three thousand people Generally, 30,000 people are treated like a corps. So, can I treat you like a corps commander?”

People around them were sweating. It was rare for Ungern to be so polite.

And his subordinates could have noticed that it wasn’t just being polite, he was holding back his temper.

The Russian Empire is mobilizing all its diplomatic capabilities to bring the United States into the war. No, there is no hope of lifting the naval blockade unless the United States enters the war in the first place.

The Russian Empire predicts that the United States will wage a war with Japan with a high probability, but it is difficult to know whether the Russian Empire will help the Russian Empire, which is not at war with Japan, also wage war with Britain and Germany.

Therefore, it was a priority to reflect and promote anti-German sentiment in the United States. Of course, the Russian Empire was not particularly proud.

The biggest problem is that the Russian Empire is not a particularly democratic country, and France’s ally of Russia has even invaded the neutral country of the Netherlands.

First of all, it was the emperor’s request that the Americans should be treated moderately when they arrived, that Russia would be a reliable ally and that it could share national interests with the United States, and that there would be no excessive casualties.

The order was given because Americans are sensitive to casualties, and they know that President Huey Long and the Democrat government have worked very hard to send out volunteers.

And Ungern interpreted it as follows:

To be treated in moderation was to be polite in front of him, and it was not impossible for Ungern, who was also a nobleman.

And to show us how well Russia is a credible ally, and how well we can smash the Germans and the British if we share our interests with the United States.

Lastly, I understood the saying to prevent excessive casualties as saying to put it in the rear.

Therefore, the conclusion of combining these three has long been transformed into the meaning of being polite to the Yankees, then shove them in the back and run wild as you please.

“Main office expects the United States Volunteer Corps to follow the direction of the main office, which has been entrusted with the authority to command all allied forces in North Africa. Commander George Smith Patton Jr.”

Patton looked at Ungern for a long time, and there was a genuine disapproval in his eyes.

It was only the subordinates around him that dried up in the nerves of the two fierce trolls.

Because it was once glorious, it was believed that it would last.

Because it was a method that worked in the past, I believed that it will continue to do so in the future.

why didn’t you realize

One word that has caused the greatest harm to us so far. The saying ‘I’ve been doing that until now.’

It is not our hateful enemies that have defeated us.

Our old habits, and those who stood behind our backs with daggers, presented us with defeat.

desperate I want to run away.

But it couldn’t.

He is the eater of the country’s rust, and he swore allegiance to his country.

I could never give up until the last minute.

Even if you lose, even if you are trampled by the enemy, and even if you die.

As long as that spirit is not broken, it can be resurrected someday.

Just remember who we are.

France that is not great is not France.

And the greatness of France is the beauty of the Champs Elysees, the magnificence of the Eiffel Tower, or the rose garden of Versailles. It doesn’t come from the fleet or the Grand Army.

The greatness of France lies in its very spirit, which dwells in every one who has the heart of France.

So, unless you are forgotten, you will never die.

If you don’t give up, you won’t lose. Never admit defeat.

Even if you grow old and dry and weak. Even if the traitor who broke into the conference room was shot in the chest with a submachine gun. Even if all the main forces were surrounded and annihilated.

Hundreds of years ago, with defeat almost certain, God sent a girl to save France.

Russia, which lost most of its main force during the Great War, was saved by a boy who struggled with a single corps.

France can be great even if all the land is trampled on. However, the moment you admit defeat and let go of your weapons, the moment the flame of resistance fades, the moment you surrender to the gangsters.

France will never be great any more.

Vietnam Colonial Government, Free France, Saigon.

“Salute to the general!”

When Charles de Gaulle got off the Joan of Arc-class battleship ‘Joan of Arc’, the soldiers saluted at once.

Few colonies are loyal to Free France.

And there are fewer colonies that have survived so far.

African colonies such as Algeria, Morocco, Tunisia, and French India were all occupied by British troops.

Colonies in the Caribbean were also attacked by the British navy and destroyed. There are only three remaining places: French Indochina, Guiana and New Caledonia.

And free France, who lived in Russia and helped attack Greece and Turkey, received an ‘offer’ when the Suez Canal fell into Russian hands.

It was a suggestion, but if the Russian army offered it, it was difficult for Free France to reject it. After all, he was the only friend

Their mission is to run as wild as possible in the Indian Ocean.

Whether they attacked Hong Kong or raided India, it was up to you.

Already returning to India, they attacked the transport fleet once, sent a British old-fashioned battleship that rushed out to Yonggung, and sunk all transport ships. pro-French army The British are already aware that the French fleet has entered Vietnam.

And now I will try to respond.

“The Russian side did not tell me to go to Indochina.”

Of course. Once you enter Indochina, it becomes very difficult to get out.

What Russia was hoping for was to hit Britain in the back of the neck while playing poker in the Arabian Sea west of India, not wanting to go into Vietnam at all. France’s protection of the Southeast Asian colonies would have been almost lip service.

However, from the de Gaulle’s point of view, Indochina, one of the few colonies loyal to Free France, could not be left unattended. In addition, there was a significant need to achieve some degree of independence from the Russian army, which frequently interferes with military operations and seeks operational or command rights. This had to be done by protecting the territories over which the French government exercised its sovereignty.

It was a f*cking alliance, but paradoxically, de Gaulle did this out of conviction that the Russian Empire could not be defeated by trolling like this.

Moreover, the biggest problem is that there is only a handful of free French army troops.

It’s not even a division level, and the best thing about it is that it’s a naval fleet including three battleships, two of which are the latest models.

Therefore, de Gaulle’s only option was to return to World War I and conscript the colonists. And the other two of the remaining colonies were so sparsely populated that the Indochina colony was the only place to open up.

After all, for de Gaulle, all means were to retaliate against Germany and Britain and liberate France into their own hands. And to do that, they needed ground troops, so they moved directly to the Indochina colonies.

Still, he had to pay some respect to Russia, so de Gaulle had a plan to attack Hong Kong.

“The pressure on the Japanese side was strong. Now that the general has brought the army, I am relieved.”

In order to send troops into Indochina under the pretext of oppressing China, Japan was working hard by pressing the Governor-General. This resulted in the Indochina governor-general rejecting the country’s orders and swearing allegiance to free France.

As long as the free French army, including battleships, arrived immediately, Japan’s demands would have to be stagnant. That alone gave the Governor-General a sigh of relief.

“The possibility of an attack by the Japanese army?”

“It is low. I don’t think the Japanese will ever want to stretch their fronts any further, and they’re reluctant to confront Russia.”

That prediction was only half right. The Japanese army did not move.

However, a few months later, warlords ordered by Japan attacked Vietnam from the Guizhou area.

Kyiv, Russian Empire.

“Are you here?”

The attitude towards the Crown Prince of a country was at the level of being on the cutting edge of rudeness, but Victor didn’t seem to care as much.

Sure enough, it was his twin brother who showed that attitude.

“I’ve heard everything, and somehow, even if I introduced several actors and singers, I didn’t even raise an eyebrow, did you like female soldiers?”

“mmm!”

“You said that when the search party found them, they were alone with the female soldiers naked? Hide what you have to hide, you bastard.”

“No, it’s because the clothes were soaking wet to the underwear and drying them! Are you going to freeze to death?”

“It’s okay, it’s ok, it’s enough for me that my brother isn’t a bastard, isn’t it a traditional hobby for the royal family to cry before marriage? Well… my father was a bit harsh, but he can’t lie with blood.”

“No, no, don’t say it so proudly, you’re a real person who was lying in the same bed with three actresses at the same time.”

Of course, Victor was very proud as if he was wondering what the problem was.

“It wasn’t my fault that I rolled over, it was my mother’s fault.”

“…I’m crazy.”

“And now, if you don’t kick off your fiancée, who is like a king of a certain country, and set up a marriage with a commoner, then what’s the problem? I’m proud in that respect, enjoy what I enjoy, and… I may agree, but it’s okay to leave it to the government, and if you have a child, you should be careful, but if you have a child, you can’t officially acknowledge it, but I’ll take care of you and do that. You didn’t do anything wrong…”

“No, f*ck that shit, are you here to scratch my insides?”

Already, rumors circulated within the unit, and his blood pressure would rise and he would die, but when he saw his stingy brother, Lev said he was the Crown Prince and seriously thought about whether he would punch him in the face.

“Teasing is secondary, oh my, it’s my father’s message. When you get home, take off your pants first, and I’ll put a .45 in your thigh.”

“…………”

“Damn, I’m serious now, but my little mother instructed me to make a movie about your performance.”

“Who is the little mother?”

“Who would it be? Someone who can make propaganda like this. If you know, don’t ask, I’ll die of trouble.”

“Why me? That Nikolai brother is there too. What about Nikita?”

When his half-brother and half-brother appeared, Victor snorted.

“First, Nicky is still hanging out in London. I don’t know if he’s washing his identity as a U.S. treasury officer and flirting with British girls anyway, but he’s still not safe. It is said that they annihilated a company of enemy prototype tanks and hung a double-headed eagle on the Brandenburg Gate.

“I wasn’t single.”

“Yeah, compared to you who stopped the enemy regiment with the four of you and came back to life in a few days, that’s why. impact. Well, if a tank brigade was attacked and destroyed with a company force and the brigade commander was captured, or something like that, Nikita could be the main character. To be honest, if one battalion of elite troops charged and couldn’t beat the company, would that make sense? Besides, Nikita is one platoon… No, I’m a company commander now, but anyway.”

“Didn’t I come here to play Black Ops?”

“I will announce it. Although it was only to the extent that a small military advisory group was sent to Tibet. It’s kind of like the Chinese atmosphere. In any case, it is a preemptive measure, of course, a lot of information must be hidden or changed, and the atmosphere on the front line is not so bad.”

“What if it’s bad?”

“British troops began to appear on the European front in earnest. In addition, there is the problem of the new tank that Nikita defeated…. The reorganization of the troops sent to the invasion of France will soon be over, and it is expected that there will be a large-scale offensive in both the Middle East and Europe. We got two points, but Germany and, by extension, England are by no means easy opponents. Besides, they also secured French industrial power.”

“I mean, it’s the game you’ve seen from now on.”

“Yeah, so it’s my father’s instruction to use everything that can be used. As soon as Nikolai gets back, we’ll start making movies. I don’t know if they’re playing with an English noble lady there right now.”

London, Great Britain. A cafe near the United States Legation.

“Ah, who is cursing me?”

Nikolai scratching his ear, no, Miller folded his arms.

In front of him was a girl who called out to him saying he wanted to meet him.
