I Became the Last Princess of the Brown Bear Kingdom

---

Those who defy me will be thoroughly exterminated! Let’s say I ruthlessly capture these scoundrels here like this. What will happen in the future?

-Why on earth did you behead the French teacher?

-Those brats who threw a nuke were Pétain, but they blame Allah for launching it! If you go against Allah, it’s nothing but death!

Isn’t this what it’s going to be like?

Of course, this is rather extreme. This is just a precaution for how things might get twisted in the future.

So right now, we have to look at it with as broad a mind as possible.

“Are they really thinking of getting them acquitted?”

To be honest, I would like to just kill them all, but is there any point in that now?

Anyway, I won’t die, and it feels wrong to kill just because I find it distasteful.

Seeing Pahlavi II dazed over there suggests that he’s also witnessing this directly.

No matter how much they are described as rabble or insurgents, I am the Emperor of Russia, and that man there is King Pahlavi II of this nation.

It’s likely that I’ll appear too meddlesome.

Regardless of where the fault lies, I need to show compassion.

“Of course.”

“Your Majesty, it seems you treat even those who attempt to assassinate you with such leniency.”

“Now, let’s stop pointless deaths and get back to our work. I have no intention of becoming your Allah, nor do I wish to impose death upon you or harbor any hatred. You will live your lives. I will live mine.”

With those words, I turned my back.

The rebellion has come to an end.

“Ah, finally it’s over.”

I was truly fed up.

Now that these scoundrels are saying it’s finally over, I won’t have to worry about bombings anymore.

I don’t have to wear a hijab anymore!

I just want to walk around Moscow in my bare skin. If I could just get to the Kremlin right now, I might even run through the corridors naked.

No, wait. If that old man who watches were to throw me into the Kremlin, I’d have to cancel that thought.

“Hmm, this actually worked out well.”

“General Ungern, what do you mean it worked out well?”

Are you saying it’s good that I got caught in the explosion?

Is Zhukov that kind of person!

“The fundamentalists gathered on their own. This means that any other Muslims who comply with Tsar are virtually in the same boat.”

In short, the ones who came together this time were truly those who opposed me.

On the contrary, those who haven’t come out have likely accepted the Islamic-Hellenism Federation willingly.

“In a word, it has filtered them out, so we’ve come to a conclusion at once.”

So this means I won’t have to step forward any further.

“Yes.”

“Well, aside from my body being extremely sore, it’s not so bad.”

It’s not a bad deal as long as I exclude the part where my body hurts too much.

This would likely lessen the chances of being terrorized further in the future.

But you know…

“Then why the hell aren’t these bastards here yet?”

I’ve completely lost it.

Why are the Greeks making it so annoying for me!

Do they seriously want to tease me? Do they want all of Greece to become a testing ground for nuclear missiles?

This isn’t something to be easily brushed aside.

Do you know how long it took me to gather these fundamentalist rebels?

Isn’t it a little too slow for them to return?

“Uh, um, well…”

Apparently, the Greek army sent a telegram, but seeing Zhukov hesitating, it looks like those Greek bastards caused some explosion.

Why are they wasting time talking?

It feels like this can only mean one thing, right? Those bastards surely messed around in Afghanistan!

That bastard Papagos touched something I told him not to!

If things get difficult on this side, I was planning to catch the fundamentalists with the returning troops, but the situation seems to have settled down faster than I thought, and now the Greek army has caused some commotion.

“Didn’t I clearly say? Hurry and return until I step on the fundamentalists. Don’t get stuck in Afghanistan.”

I definitely said that.

Damn it, stop wasting time. Japan exists. We need to quickly withdraw from the Middle East!

Even if we include the Middle East as our territory, it can’t be more critical than a world war.

Mr. Mo Jeong-gu isn’t that impressive of a figure in reality.

“Uh, um, well…”

Why is this guy being so coy? What’s going on that makes him stutter like this?

“General Zhukov, can’t you hurry up and say it? I’ll listen to anything as a Saint.”

“Exactly. Just hurry up and say it. If anything happens in Afghanistan, we might have to abandon Japan.”

At my words, Zhukov looked around nervously and finally opened his mouth cautiously.

“Your Majesty, the Greek army has captured Panjshir and toppled the Northern Alliance of Islam in Afghanistan.”

“Haha, has the Greek army really become possessed by Alexander the Great?”

“If we can’t conquer Afghanistan with our weapons, it could hardly be called a country. After all, Afghanistan is just a third-world nation, isn’t it?”

Huh? Did I hear that right?

No, it can’t be right, can it? It sounds like it makes sense, but is it really so?
Even when everyone else was impressed, it took me a moment to process that I was shocked.

“What?”

Is what I just heard actually true?

What does that even mean? I started going over my previous memories again.

No matter how many times I heard it, it sounded like Greece trampled Afghanistan. Is that real?

“Well, no missiles or other weapons were effective. This point was similar to the world strategies your Majesty provided.”

Right. Missiles and various weapons were ineffective.

But how the hell did they manage to capture it?

Have I been thinking too much with modern standards?

“But what happened next?”

What exactly did they do to claim Afghanistan?

I clearly ordered them to withdraw.

If we get stuck in Afghanistan, we’ll ultimately fall behind in Japan.

“After that, the Greeks interpreted our demand for a retreat as a signal to hastily adjust their strategy and pushed only infantry. Out of their total 60,000 troops, 15,000 suffered casualties, and they captured Panjshir and started taking control of northern Afghanistan.”

Now, with this, the originally planned Iraq and Iran Wars ended peacefully, and Afghanistan was concluded through military force.

But in the end, it’s like they handed over Afghanistan.

Yeah, the original history and this one are different circumstances.

Afghanistan, with its outdated weapons, would surely have limits.

“Uh, um. Could it actually be a good thing?”

Should I just take it positively? Hm.

Thinking back to the original world, it’s genuinely astonishing. Could it be that Afghanistan was actually an easy nation?

Still, even if it’s easy, it’s not good to attack without justification.

“Congratulations, Your Majesty.”

Right. I’m not sure if this is something to celebrate.

How much damage did we incur? If the Greek army indeed captured Afghanistan, they must have faced horrific casualties.

Aside from that, I thought it would be difficult.

“Didn’t you say that Afghanistan would be a challenging country, Your Majesty?”

Exactly. I definitely thought it would be challenging.

“But now there may be sporadic resistance.”

How should we deal with that?

If we mess up, we might lose everything.

We might be stuck in Afghanistan for a long time.

If the Greeks only suffer losses, I don’t care, but since they are part of the Rome Treaty Organization, we all have to get involved.

Damn it.

It’s impressive they succeeded, but with this, it seems we’ll all end up fighting, doesn’t it?

“Thanks to the early acceptance of our proposal by the King of Afghanistan, the Northern Alliance has been classified as rebels against Afghanistan.”

The Northern Alliance against Afghanistan, huh?

“Oh, really?”

Is this okay? This sounds a bit off. Does this mean Afghanistan is crumbling this easily?

“Yes. The King of Afghanistan surrendered long ago, but there were forces resisting him.”

“How come such rebels appeared so quickly?”

It’s only been a few months.

Since they saw Iraq and Iran getting beaten by the few troops Greece had, the Afghan government must have realized that they were doomed and just surrendered.

I can understand that much.

Did the Northern Alliance form in the meantime? That feels a bit suspicious.

It raises serious concerns about whether the Greeks are cheating this time.

“To be precise, it seems they realized the Rome Treaty Organization was targeting the Middle East and tried to fight back.”

Did such signs emerge already?

If we assume they defeated the Northern Alliance, it would basically mean Afghanistan is done.

Hand it over to the pro-Rome Afghanistan Kingdom government for Panjshir as well.

“Hmm. Can that happen?”

The problem is that if this goes through, it’s effectively military occupation.

Even if the nation of Afghanistan exists, there will still be issues with public sentiment.

Even if we think we’ve suppressed everything, we can’t overlook the potential for guerrilla warfare.

“Now we just need to focus on Japan. Haha!”

This isn’t a time to laugh.

As I mentioned, those bastards have military issues too.

Will they simply disappear if Panjshir is breached? What about the guerrillas?

“There’s a possibility of guerrillas, isn’t there?”

A group like the Taliban might show up, right?

We need to remain vigilant.

I speak truthfully; these deranged Islamic territories retaliate more fiercely to their own deaths, right?

This time, I genuinely plan to go help Afghanistan.

Especially since the kingdom government has submitted first, it would feel right to support them. It’s about aiding a government victimized by the rebels.

Since we all have suffered, we must help one another, right? This is what the Islamic-Hellenism Federation is about.

However, we need to consider if the guerrillas become a long-term nuisance.

“Unfortunately, their supplies are running low. They might struggle even if they want to continue guerrilla warfare.”

Will it really end that easily?

Guerrillas fight even with no equipment, right? Even if the Northern Alliance fell, they might still hide and fight.

At this point, there’s only one method left.

We need to step in directly, show we are benevolent, and generously support the existing Afghan government, so that their lives improve significantly; perhaps the guerrillas would then emerge.

“From then, we must step up directly.”

“It’s about soothing public sentiment.”

Since the government has accepted our proposal, there was no war.

We merely cracked down on the rebels.

As proof of that, we need to deliver support supplies with the message that we are your friends!

While soothing public sentiment like this, we need to tactfully indulge them, and also insert bureaucrats from the Rome Treaty to take control of administrative power.

We must ensure to dominate Afghanistan, at the very least.

But before that, I need to deal with that irritating Papagos.

“Since those Greeks have done such a disgraceful job, let’s dismiss Papagos for his contributions.”

“Wouldn’t that leave discontent?”

Is Papagos going to create discontent? But that’s not my problem.

“We will dismiss him for this expedition. He can stay with the Greek army as is. Honestly, I told him to withdraw, and he forced this mess!.”

To be honest, he did well, but at the same time, it was atrocious.

As he performed well, the Greeks deserve a share, but that bastard Papagos should be tucked away somewhere.

At least we need to show we’ve dismissed him on the surface.

Just call the Islamic-Hellenism Federation a force above the nation. After all, the Afghan Kingdom’s government was initially cooperative with us. It wasn’t surrender.

The ones rebelling against that are the Northern Alliance.

Positioned as insurgents against Afghanistan, they have been dealt with due to the heroic struggles of the Greek army.

“15,000 out of 50,000 were killed or injured.”

Although they say killed or injured, there’s bound to be a lot of deaths.

Goodness, they must have faced significant casualties while holding strong in Panjshir.

If 15,000 soldiers died in the Greek army, oh boy, that’s pitiful.

The damage in taking Afghanistan will probably only increase from now on, right?

60,000 is essentially the maximum elite force that Greece can muster.

I guess we’ll have to take care of them accordingly.

“Well, since they’ve put in the effort, they should be treated decently.”

I can reward those who work hard.

Unfortunately, Greece exerted a great deal of effort this time.

“Are you planning to reward Greece?”

“Reward? That seems a bit too much. Not exactly a reward.”

Still, capturing Afghanistan is almost like gaining merit.

So, resources could be allocated.

Of course, I’ll give them part while keeping the majority under the name of the Rome Treaty.

Though they irritate me, ignoring their contributions could be tough.

“There’s no real reason to go all the way to the capital Kabul.”

“Yes. If they have already accepted our proposal, wouldn’t it be a way to summon the King to Tehran?”

“Exactly.”

Look at Iraq, Iran, and Afghanistan as the three nations.

Right in the center lies Tehran in Iran.

Yeah, it’s better to establish the headquarters of the Islamic-Hellenism Federation in Tehran.

“Invite Papagos and the King over here.”

“Yes, Your Majesty. I will call them.”

Now, let’s quickly unify the Middle East.
