< Episode 76 >

“Snami Boch (С нами Бог: God is with us. Motto of the Russian Empire).”

The helmeted officer Spetsnaz gave his subordinates a new prototype light machine gun, a TP-16 light machine gun made of Tokarev’s blood and flesh.

“Remember, speak only Serbian.”

One soldier put a grenade adapter on the carbine, and the other checked the grenades and shotguns on the ammo.

“All those who died here lost their lives in the rebellion of the Black Hands.”

After a while, gunshots began to ring out.

***

Serbia Royal Palace.

“is that so?”

Tatiana smiled and took the tea to her mouth.

Crown Prince Alexander was restless at seeing her like that.

“I wonder if my story isn’t interesting…”

“No, it was really interesting.”

Of course, he didn’t remember a single word.

All her nerves were on him and her last conversation.

‘Keep Crown Prince Alexander, if his family wants to be with him, that’s not bad either.’

‘how?’

‘First of all, the main goal, King Petar I, has a meeting schedule with me, and he has to attend various ceremonial events, so he will not be able to hold on for long, so he will leave his seat on his own. However, if the princess wants to have a long conversation with Prince Alexander, I will not hate it.’

‘Why?’

‘… Listening to it might offend you a bit, but do you really want to hear it?’

‘it’s okay. Just tell me honestly.’

‘There are two pieces of information I have gathered. First, Peter I seeks a firm alliance with Russia, and he will never miss the opportunity to get married to the royal family. Second, there is information that Crown Prince Alexander has a crush on Princess Tatiana. .’

‘Hmm?’

When her expression became unsettling, the Duke of Vostok hurriedly attempted to rectify it.

‘If you have any concerns, you can just stay with me. I don’t want to make a difficult request…’

‘No, I’ll help you.’

‘Are you okay?’

‘Well, I think I’ll give the master a life lesson once in a while.’

‘If everything goes according to plan, the princess won’t have any complaints. No, I don’t even know it’s related. On the contrary, it might be appreciated.’

The Serbian royal family wants an alliance with Russia, and Crown Prince Alexander has a crush on Tatiana.

Based on these two factors, even if Tatiana shows interest in Alexander, not only Aleksandr himself, but also the royal family will actively try to promote this atmosphere. Even if the royal marriage was an arranged marriage, even her parents were not in a romantic relationship right now. I wouldn’t think it’s possible at all.

Tatiana did not know the whole of the plan, but she knew clearly what she had to do.

It’s reluctant to take advantage of someone who likes her, but she already had a man to devote her life to. And a man who is determined to devote his whole life wants her to use him.

Above all, Crown Prince Alexander, one of the Black Hand’s patrons, is not without responsibility for the start of the Great War. Thinking of the hell she had witnessed in Krakow, Tatiana suppressed the little sympathy she had heard.

At that moment, gunshots started ringing in the distance.

‘It started.’

Without noticing her trembling hands, she retrieved them and put them on the boat.

“Princess, out now…”

“I heard.”

She caught sight of the movement of the internal affairs forces that followed her to escort her.

The soldiers, who quickly built up barricades and mounted machine guns, started yelling at the citizens of the streets to go home immediately.

At the shouting that was heard in a mixture of Russian and Serbian, the citizens roughly understood what was being said, and hurriedly ran into a nearby building and began to observe the situation.

After a while, an officer came up.

“Captain Dimitri, what’s going on?”

“I’m sorry, Princess Mama, there seems to be a riot in the city. I’m sorry, but everyone in this building, please do not go outside. Now that we have sent a messenger to your foe, we have decided to blockade this building until something comes up.”

“Do by that way.”

Before Alexander could say anything, Tatiana hit the player. Anyway, I have all the words set up in advance, and what I’m doing now is just acting.

“The Princess… you are very calm even in this situation.”

“Because I’ve been to the battlefield.”

For a moment that no one would notice, contempt flashed in her eyes. Has that ‘master’ ever gone to the battlefield? Have you ever seen soldiers evacuated after inhaling gas, wounded soldiers with monstrous faces with burns over half of their bodies, and seriously wounded with limbs?

Do you know a little bit of how she felt when she was evacuated after being judged to have no hope, but had no choice but to hold her hand without saying anything to a seriously injured person who did not receive any treatment in order to save even a piece of gauze?

If she didn’t know, she was willing to spit in the face of the man in front of her if she had fueled this war without knowing it.

You can’t help but despise it just because you know it, but if you fanned the war while knowing its cruelty, such a human isn’t even worth spitting on.

Contrary to her inner feelings, she smiled softly and said to him.

“The internal affairs army is the most elite, and the duke is a very capable person. No matter what happens, don’t worry, it’ll be fine.”

“Ah, Duke of Vostok… I have seen him for a while, but I have a feeling he is not unusual. I was curious because I never knew who he was.”

“Perhaps if there is anyone in the world who knows him best except for himself, it would be our brothers and sisters. They are almost like siblings.”

“Is that so?”

The Crown Prince asked her, now completely ignoring the gunshots still heard from outside.

“Then can you tell me a little bit about him?”

It was understandable that the Crown Prince was displeased. Right now, intelligence agencies around the world are giving out bizarre interpretations because there is not much information about what this human is doing.

The British intelligence agency, MI6, was in the process of creating a new spy organization from scratch, as the organization was virtually disbanded after accusing the Prime Minister that there was no correct information at all – which also had an impact on the dismissal of his political supporter, Winston Churchill.

Of course, that was because the British internal chaos was so severe that it was allowed to land on the mainland, so the Cabinet decided that it was better to have no information than to receive misinformation.

In any case, it was very unfair to the heads of intelligence agencies in each country who were marked incompetent after they confessed that they knew nothing about the existence that was evidently at the heart of the powers of the great powers.

Obviously, they did a reasonable analysis on their own, but they all went wrong, and the Joker, who doesn’t know where it came from, is reversing the war by himself, so it’s almost like reality is a novel, not reality.

In addition, since Russia’s counterintelligence network was extremely strengthened, the Humints in Russia suffered close to annihilation, so the collection of new information was cut off.

As much as the Russian princess saw information about him, it was like a piece of gold that even the leaders of the great powers did not know. Right now, Serbia also tried to win his favor, but he didn’t know what he liked, so even when he was preparing to serve him, he had to think over and over again.

It was literally a jackpot if they could find out at least a taste or a hobby, so the Crown Prince listened to Tatiana not to miss a single word.

***

The sound of urgent footsteps continued from the royal palace.

“Something! What’s up!”

Petar I rose from his seat and sat down repeatedly.

“Is it a coup?”

“It’s like…. But why now?”

Now the Russian Interior Army troops are stationed around the capital, and there are even state guests.

Unless you want to receive Russia’s wrath as authentic, there’s no way a coup d’etat can happen at this time.

“For now, ask the Russian Interior Forces for assistance! Where is the Duke of Vostok now?”

“Here it is. your majesty.”

“Ah, peacock!”

Peter I, who stood up as if he had met the Savior, spoke hastily.

“Right now, Belgrade is being attacked by unknown forces, please move the internal forces…”

“We are the Home Army, Petar.”

Only then did they realize that the duke’s guards had followed into the room.

And the fact that the duke had a pistol in his hand.

“What is this……”

-Tata ta ta tatta tang!

After a while, indiscriminate shots were fired. Hundreds of rounds of submachine gun bullets scattered bullets throughout the king’s office, and cabinet ministers and several Serbian soldiers fell pick-and-pick.

It wasn’t just there. The 700 or so internal affairs forces, which I personally command, have already taken control of the entire area around the palace.

“Ahh…”

As I approached Petar I, who was wounded and wriggling, I pressed down on his staggering body with bats.

“why…..”

“I have decided that my country cannot stand by the current government of Serbia. There is a good thing in everything in the world…. By causing an incident of this magnitude to us without saying a word, it causes a huge amount of Russian blood to flow, and the most precious and irreplaceable resource of the Russian Empire, time. Did you think you could take it away and get out of there for nothing?”

“No… No, no way… Why is Russia…”

“I proposed, the Tsar authorized it, the Black Hand, you too, are at your disposal. If you want to shoot someone, you shouldn’t have been prepared to be shot yourself.”

“I… I didn’t do it, Apis! Apis, he planned all this, there was nothing I could do in the first place…”

“apis? Oh, Colonel Dragutin, he has paid the price.”

I aimed the pistol straight.

“Go ahead and ask yourself for details. in hell.”

– Taang!

blood splashed I looked at the blood dotted on the leather gloves.

“It is truly a pity that your Majesty has been assassinated for the treason of Colonel Apis.”

“Is Colonel Apis killed while resisting?”

“Yes, now we have all the major facilities in our hands.”

“Send correspondence that Colonel Apis assassinated His Majesty Petar I and launched a coup, which was stopped and failed by the Russians, that Apis was killed, and therefore from this moment on, Black Sudanese members, their supporters, and others involved in treason. Declare all over Serbia that everyone is wanted for treason against the state. Where is the body?”

“The military has definitely secured it. There is no possibility that he would be a double since he was pursued and killed right after meeting with the Duke. Shall I instruct you to bring it now?”

“Throw it inside the Serbian Capital Defense Command building with a weapon of the Serbian army.”

“All right.”

“Your Majesty’s body should be treated with respect.”
