Rasputin of the East

＜ Episode 255 >

The Russian and American offensives took place at about the same time.

The Russian forces that attacked Hokkaido were planning to clear up Hokkaido and descend to Honshu, and the US forces launched an amphibious operation on Kyushu and Shikoku with the goal of clearing Kyushu within one month.

However, strictly speaking, this was only a small fraction of the strength of the Russian army. In the first place, the main battlefield was Europe, so it’s a matter of course.

It was for the same reason that Chuikov was in charge of the front line instead of the prominent generals such as Rokosovsky, Konev, and Vasilebsky.

Therefore, it must not have been a mistake for me to be immersed in my personal affairs instead of the battle against Japan.

Okay, let’s be honest, shouldn’t I get some rest too? humanly?

As I thought about it last time, I am now at an age where I have to think about sending my sons and daughters in marriage. I’m suddenly depressed.

Still, I’m glad I don’t have gray hair except for a few gray hairs.

As for the sound of defense warfare, I haven’t been able to say anything since I was in my 20s.

“Well, it’s fortunate that we don’t have a few sons who are still old enough to marry.”

“Relief? My eyes go dark when I think about how many more weddings I have to hold.”

“But for children from other countries, is that part better because their mothers will find out for themselves?”

“…can you see that it’s better?”

Taking a deep breath, I saw several girls.

Still, if I look at the kids who are big enough to find myself right now, the first ones are Nikolai, Victor, Lev, and Nikita. and I don’t know

Anna…. is big enough to find it alone, right? It’s a bit vague, but that’s because he’s an imperial family.

“Is there no man you like Anna?”

“Are you going to marry me?”

“Well…if it’s not a bad person, that’s fine.”

“Is that bad guy number 1 you?”

“Oh really.”

I can’t deny it, but honestly, isn’t everyone being too harsh on their actual husband?

“Have I ever neglected you?”

“Um, wallowing with another woman?”

“No, that’s…”

I will turn, really. There is clearly a crime that I have committed, so I can’t complain about anything.

“First of all, Victor has to be chosen carefully, really.”

It’s not about anyone else, it’s about choosing the next Empress of the Russian Empire. To be honest, it is not an exaggeration to say that the US Marine Corps is more important than where the landing failed or not.

As seen in the story of Princess Diana, there are many cases where the support for the monarchy is tied to the popularity of the queen… Even if I was born, I probably wouldn’t marry the British Crown Prince.

“If Lev has a lover, he will take care of it himself, it should be friendly and good for the common people, except for a foreign divorced woman with a child.

“First of all, is it Nikolai and Nikita? What do you think of Nikita’s mother?”

Maria shrugged.

“Well… if possible, it would be nice to marry a girl from a good family.”

“I was thinking from the Dutch side, but as a person, I was too young. I’m only 4 years old… but it would be good as a message of reconciliation.”

“The Dutch side is less politically burdened than the UK.”

The Netherlands looked after it a lot in the post-war process. If only the colonies were being taken away, how much did they take care of them, and there was no looting of European territories.

In France, there were also those who offered to give up the entire Dutch territory at this opportunity, but it was lightly ignored. What kind of campaign are these guys who haven’t done anything?

“For now, the Dutch princess may marry at least one of our children as a sign of reconciliation, so let’s talk about it there.”

There are many children, so you can do a lot of marriage alliances, although of course this is an era in which marriage alliances do not have any special meaning.

After all, there is no way that a Dutch person will be taken to a war crimes trial as a crime against peace. To be honest, he was still there, but since he was preempted by France, it must be said that he was dragged in unfairly.

“How about England?”

“There is a princess who is 16 this year and a princess who is 12 this year. Ummm… are you okay? It’s us who sent him to former King Gol. I haven’t even done a war criminal trial yet.”

“… Let’s meet up first.”

Age difference is often ignored in arranged marriages, so it doesn’t really matter.

“Anyway, I was going to put some of the Guards in London, but it worked.”

In the UK, Ireland is currently governed by the US military, and on the mainland of Britain, the Russian army is running the military administration. I don’t know if things will change depending on the outcome of the consultation if I go later.

Therefore, Nikita’s subordinates are confirmed to serve in the UK according to their superiors. Still, it’s better than fighting those who say Tenno Heika Banza and everything in Hokkaido, right?

“In Italy, the monarchy was abolished, and in Eastern Europe, nothing happened. There is no real option.”

“Actually, except for Viktor, you can marry the person you love freely, except for Victor.

“What about Nikolai? Don’t you think it’s time to sort things out about the throne?”

“……I haven’t decided yet, whether to tie the Czech Republic to the Confederacy or to hand it over to Nikolai.”

“Either way, you better decide quickly.”

“……. okay.”

***

Empire of Japan, Kyushu.

– Kwaang!

A huge tank that looked like a tortoise fired a 105mm cannon.

“Shoot! I mean, fire an anti-tank gun!”

“It doesn’t work! It bounced off!”

“No, anyone is fine! Isn’t there something you can do to show the American imperial spirit of the Yamato nation by giving a special attack to that tank?”

there was no way ’cause they’re all already dead

-Gang!

A Japanese 47mm rapid-fire cannon was hit by a U.S. tank’s artillery and its bullet was disassembled.

Two monster tortoises with 305mm of frontal armor were crawling and crawling, and there was no way to subdue them with the poor firepower of the Japanese army.

In fact, even the Russian army had to do a dive bombing, or at least drag it into a street fight, then bring an RPG to target vulnerabilities, or load a 115mm smoothbore cannon, which is still in development, and fire it with even blades.

– Kwaang!

And great firepower was poured out. The fortified guns blew out fire.

The Japanese army’s fortress main gun aimed at the T28 super-heavy tank, judging that that level of firepower was necessary to deal with that monster.

Immediately, the U.S. Army also fired counterattacks to neutralize the fortress with large-caliber armor-piercing rounds and air bombs, and ultra-caliber mortars destroyed the fortress.

In addition, large-scale artillery fire and air attacks were also accompanied.

The Americans also suffered quite a lot of casualties, including destroying and completely losing a few tanks by landmines and shelling, but nevertheless, the Japanese imperial defense lines were disastrously collapsing.

Twilight had already begun, but even that was nearing its end.

Even the last light of Amaterasu disappeared, and the time for darkness approached.

***

Hokkaido, Empire of Japan. only soya.

-Tatattattattatta! Tata tata tata!

“This shit.”

“grenade!”

– Kwaang!

Some soldiers fired grenades. The enemy machine gun seat stopped firing.

“Good job! in action!”

“Wow!”

The moment the soldiers got up and rushed, shouting was heard from the other side as well.

“Tennoheika Banzai!”

-Tatatattattattata!

The Russian army, who grabbed a Japanese sword and gave the enemy soldiers full of AKM bullets, confirmed and killed the Japanese with a bayonet in the sense of conserving ammunition.

“Ugh… Amaterasu Ookamishi…”

“What do these bastards say?”

“I don’t know.”

-bang!

“Dimitri!”

“Yes! Sergeant.”

“Where is Lieutenant Markov?”

“You said you had to contact the main university earlier, so you left. You’ll probably be at headquarters.”

“i get it.”

At a low point, I could see artillery and tanks being unloaded.

“Lieutenant.”

“sergeant.”

There was no salute. Saluting on the battlefield only provides a target for the sniper.

“Sergeant, the orders have been issued from the top, to advance inland like this, kill all those who resist, and help take control of the entire island.”

“All right.”

As the sergeant saluted as if waiting for the order, the lieutenant gave some additional messages.

“Since the landing has been successful, you must advance inland as soon as possible. Because the mountain is difficult, strong resistance is expected from the enemy, so be careful not to separate from the tank unit while you are walking. Looking at the map, it is not that there are no plains, but there are quite a few places where you have to cross mountains to get to the south. Let the soldiers know it well.”

“Yes, Lieutenant.”

The lieutenant, who delivered the message, mixed with the other officers again, and the sergeant went to the soldiers. A number of soldiers were chatting and chattering as if they had just loosened up a bit.

“The Japanese believe their god protects this land.”

“But it was smashed too easily for something like that? Seriously, how much power do you have when you have this kind of village bastard?”

“I heard that while taking a prisoner, maybe… it’s the god who is squeamish, but they believe they are the goddess of the sun.”

“Since the sun and the wind take off their clothes, we who worship the playboy Tsar must be the natural enemies of the Japanese who worship the sun goddess, right? Well, now I understand.”

All the soldiers present at Dimitri’s Gadrip crawled and stole.

“Pu ha ha ha ha!”

“It’s not wrong….

“Well, actually, it’s the sun and the wind. As long as you’re a woman, isn’t it a mouse in front of a cat to His Majesty? First?”

“…I’m the only one who doesn’t understand…Didn’t I?”

A soldier who was not familiar with the story of the sun and the wind fighting to take off the stranger’s coat showed a slightly sullen attitude, but the soldiers who understood roughly laughed as if they were going to die.

The sergeant saw the scene and strode over to Dimitri’s back and placed his hand on his shoulder.

“Is it fun?”

“Ugh!”

“I came here because I have something to tell you, so please listen to it as it is. Since this area is mountainous, the possibility of ambush by the Japanese military is quite high, so be vigilant, and take special care in managing protective gear, especially since there is a possibility of chemical warfare. It’s ideal, I have to go south immediately after taking a break, so it’s ideal to save all my stamina.”

“All right!”

“rest.”

The sergeant who delivered the brief took off his helmet for a while to cool off.

As the cold wind blew, I could see a few fighter jets flying quickly over my head, which was quickly chilled, I don’t know where they were aiming.

The honor is probably good, and it is his duty as a senior veteran to send those juniors so that even one more person can survive.

So he hoped to surrender early, acknowledging that his enemies had no prospect of just winning in the first place.

Of course, considering the fanaticism I saw today, it seemed impossible.
