Continental Hero Senki

The Seventh War

"Therefore, Your Highness, it appears that the Ostmarc Empire and the Second Reich of Christ have entered a state of war"

"... Mr. Yuzef, one good thing?

"Yes."

"... is this the seventh time?

"Yes, big and small, but"

Ostmarc and Christ are uncertain.

10 August.

In the military inspector's office, or the office of His Highness Emilia, I am reporting to His Highness Emilia the information obtained during the interview with Mr. Fine.

Ms Fine said that, although there did not appear to be any significant change in the domestic situation in Ostmarc, the external situation seemed to have burned completely. In other words, the outbreak of the Seventh Ostmark-Christ War.

It is a big deal not to get tired of being able to war seven times.

"But Silesia can't talk about people either. How many times has the Kingdom of Silesia fought the Empire of the Eastern Continent, starting with the War of Silesian Independence?"

…………

Looks like His Highness Emilia was counting fingers as she looked up at the ceiling, but she gave up around breaking her pinky. Someone said that war is a continental wind and earth disease.

"But in this case, didn't Yuzef hurt you?

"No, well, it is... But this is also a story that will benefit Ostmarc, so I hope you'll take a look."

The national interest of the Ostmarc Empire is to prevent the Eastern Continental Empire from becoming enlarged. Because there could be a great war called "Reunification of the Continent" when his country becomes enlarged.

Even if it does not, it is likely that the Eastern Continental Empire, the Union of Livonia Nobles and the Ostmarc Empire, which lost their common enemy after the complete division of Silesia, will compete for the hegemony. Wherever it wins, national power is exhausted, and if national power is exhausted and the economy is depressed, it will be the mother of rebellion for Ostmarc, a multi-ethnic state.

That's why Ostmarc survived Silesia as a buffer zone and adopted a foreign policy that would stabilise the Empire in the long run.

But the Imperial Chancellor, Sergei Romanov, was a famous man. He is rapidly rejuvenating the Eastern Continental Empire, even though only two things change in age with me and His Highness Emilia. His country is still in the process of being rebuilt, but its effects are obvious. I can't take the means of assassination because I have full control of the military and the security apparatus. I am certain that he will take the throne.

"If I had known I was such a great man, I would have done the assassination early"

And Mr. Feene said it before. By the time he found out he was competent, he was already in power.

In other words, it is as if it has been established that the national power of the Eastern Continental Empire will be enlarged. The hand that Ostmarc can strike to this situation is whether to betray Silesia and stand on the side of the Eastern Continental Empire, or whether non-Silesian countries will also be involved to form an anti-Eastern Continental Empire Alliance. Regardless, Ostmark-led.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ostmarc, or Marquis Coudenhoff, Mr. Fine's grandfather, chose the latter. There will be many reasons, but I think the primary reason is that that is the only way to safeguard the autonomous independence of the Ostomark Empire, beyond the final goal of the Eastern Empire being the reunification of the continent.

The foreground has grown longer, but there are obstacles that have led to the establishment of the Anti-Eastern Continental Empire Alliance. That is the Second Reich of Christ in question this time.

"The rapprochement between the Eastern Continental Empire and the Second Reich of Christ was being repaired by a review of the foreign policy of Imperial Chancellor Sergei Romanov. It's a pain in the ass for Ostmarc."

"Right. Besides, because of what Yuzef did in Castelletto, he seems strangely suspicious."

That's what His Highness Emilia said and made me laugh at Couscous.

Give me a break about that.

I never thought the proposal that I put forward would move the international situation so far.

"Pfft, I don't mind. It's the same with me that we couldn't predict the situation, so it's each other."

"Thank you"

Well, let's put aside the past story.

"To get back to it, I want Christ to join the Ostmark-led Anti-Eastern Continental Empire Alliance. But Christ can't believe Ostmarc. I think Christ chose to cross swords with Ostmarc while maintaining a certain distance from the Eastern Empire."

"I think Mr. Yusef is right, too,"

"... that's a strangely hooked way of saying it"

"It's about Mr. Yuzef anyway, so is it more spicy afterwards?

Different? Your Highness asks me tilting my neck like I said. Why.

"That's not true. I just thought that if Ostmarc could win this war, he might be able to draw Christ into the faction on this side."

"Saying?

It's a simple story.

If Ostmarc wins the Seventh War, a pact of reconciliation will naturally be concluded. You can tell him then. "I do not seek territorial transfer. Join the Anti-Eastern Continental Empire Alliance instead". Even if it's not that direct, just make him promise to stop trading with the Eastern Continental Empire, permanently ban alliances, and resume relations and exchanges with Ostomark.

Using the Treaty of Reconciliation with Christ as a basis, form an anti-Eastern Continental Empire Alliance. This is the basic idea.

Regardless, Ostmarc needs to win in order to make this happen. That's not a hard win either, in a way that's close to a complete win. Did I just say how to make that happen depends on the arm of the Ostmarc Imperial Army? I guess we should just let Miklagard, the largest city in the Second Reich of Christ, fall for now.

"And here's the thing"

…………

"Um, Your Highness?

For some reason His Highness uttered nothing for a few minutes and sighed a little before finally opening his mouth.

"I still think Mr. Yuzef is an extraordinary person"

I was complimented. No, I don't think I'm complimenting you in an absolutely pure sense, considering the sigh you threw up just before. For now I replied, "Thank you," but His Highness Emilia's reaction to it was yet another few minutes of silence and a mild sigh.

I wonder why. I think it's a very difficult policy.

"... well, regardless of Yuzef's talent, Yuzef and Sarah are going to the front as spectator martial artists, right?

"I plan on doing that. I was wondering if Mr. Fine would accompany us."

Probably stop by Esterburg, the Imperial capital, on the way, but I definitely don't want to see Uncle Linz. I'm worried something will happen when I see him.

... No, there's something I'm worried about before that.

"Oh, yeah. I remember. I'll give you some information before I forget."

"Information, is it?

"Yep. It's from Wang Du. this material."

That said, the material handed to me by His Highness is not so thick. It was created by Mr. Henrik, who belongs to the National Police Bureau of the Prime Minister's Office of the Kingdom.

It is said that a person close to the Grand Duchy of Carol has departed the King's Capital and made his way to Gdansk, the port city of northern Silesia. They haven't moved from there to somewhere using the ship yet. He also said that other people would see active movements.

The Grand Duchy of Carol moves at this time that His Highness Emilia is going to the King's Capital. It is only natural for my subordinates to have a bad feeling.

"Your Highness, shouldn't we still be accompanying Mr. Maya to the king's capital? The special participation position will be temporarily vacant, but that would be if people could be called from the King's Capital..."

His Royal Highness Emilia will soon be traveling to the King's Capital. At that time, the third cavalry regiment of the Kingsguard Division, the most elite of the Royal Silesian Army, is to be accompanied as an escort.

But I still wondered if I should leave anyone beside me. But His Highness,

"No, it's fine. We don't have Mr. Sarah, but we have 3,000 escorts, and we have SS in King's Capital, as well as Mr. Henrik and Mr. Ilia. I still think it's too much of an extravagant amount of escort."

I said and didn't give in hard work.

If His Highness says so, I can't say it any stronger this way. In the end, Mr. Maya's residue and Sarah's trip to Ostmarc remained the decision.

His Royal Highness said oh, but there's no way I can wipe out my anxiety.

I'll send a letter to Mr. Henrik and Mr. Ilia, who are in the Wang capital, in case. And I have to meet Maya to make sure there's no such thing as "unexpected".

... overprotective?
