A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World

Episode 174 Current Situation Description and Tactical Discussion.

"I will now explain the current situation.

The soldier leader starts explaining.

"Goblins and other demons 400 are currently moving about 8 km from the city towards the city.

Estimate is, the castle gate reach is seen around the 3 o'clock section bell.

In addition, the city's current strength will total 560 soldiers and 200 knights.

Currently, according to the Emergency Response Manual, the back castle gate is closed with 60 people from 3 platoons.

Therefore, the war is expected to start with 500 people.

"Um, what's the enemy breakdown?

"Yes. Goblin 350, Auga 50.

"... troublesome.

"Yes.

Waiting for us, we plan to side by side and center the Knights in five rows, and at the same time carry out an assault after the Mage's surface control.

"Hmm... Takeo, what does your lord think?

Grandpa Elvis speaks to Takeo, who was listening in silence.

"... I don't know the premise... would you like to ask me a question?

"Uhm."

"First, what are the winning and losing conditions on this side of this battle?

"Victory is doomed, defeat is doomed... then.

Grandpa Elvis says with a difficult face.

"Okay, that's their annihilation.

... goblin and orga details, please.

"Yes.

The goblin is about 1m in size... like a human child.

My body isn't muscular either... I'm thin one way or the other.

Weapons are mostly this stick. To some extent, it's a bit of a motion attack.

Intelligence is low for it. I can tell you there's nothing tactical about it, just coming in with an assault.

One soldier can handle Goblin 1.

The size of the auga is about 3-4 m.

The body is muscular and monstrous.

This one too. Weapons are mostly this stick.

The move isn't that fast, but the blow you've been running into is quite powerful.

This one's low on intelligence, too, and it's just coming through. I can tell you that there is nothing tactical.

He also has more strength than a goblin and takes longer to defeat.

It is basic to deal with Auga 1 with 3 or 4 soldiers.

Soldier chief explains.

"Okay.

By the way, do you two have magic?

"We haven't heard any examples of using it, so we don't use it.

"Really? For a quick comparison, this is 500, that's 550...

Have you been at a slight disadvantage since before the war?

"Yes, but as I said earlier, I think the magician's attack before the assault reduces the number.

"Are you 40 magician platoons?

Soldier Chief, assuming the lowest possible outcome, what is your opponent's supposed combat power when storming?

"... it's a goblin 250, an aug 50.

"... is that right... ok.

Next, let me take a look at the map of the neighborhood of this city.

and Frederick opens the perimeter view of the city in front of everyone.

"Well... soldier chief, the castle gate is here...

Is the enemy coming from the front?

"Yes, the report says it's walking about 100 meters across from the front.

"The forest was approaching from both sides about 600 meters in front of the castle gate, but what's the width of the open here?

"It's 200-250 m.

"... Really... um..."

Takeo is troubled.

"Is it difficult in Takeo?

"Hmm? Ah. I don't have any real combat experience... so I have an assumed battle at play... good or bad.

Strategic simulations were done both in warring times and in modern times, but I think Takeo is a long time away.

"Tell me what you don't mind.

"Really?

Now, half oval like this plate in front of the castle gate. This one will wait.

Harold on the left wing. 100 knights in command and 100 6th to 10th platoons including the Mage Platoon,

100th to 15th Platoons, including 100 Knights and Platoon of Mages, commanding the Deputy Knights on the right wing,

100 1st, 5th, 16th and 17th Platoons will be placed in the centre with the Soldier Commander.

"What's the intent?

"Left wing. Right wing aligns with veteran.

Shoot in from both sides and reduce the number when you reach a magical effective range.

Reaching the center is a handful that slipped through that attack, so let the recruits handle it.

Narrow down on foot from both sides as the magician finishes shooting.

... aim for a pinch.

Don't panic, not assault, process and go.

Here's how.

Takeo opens his right hand and the base of his left hand together at about 90 degrees before clapping.

"Um, I see.

... but it takes a while... the center is too thin to collapse?

"That's where I go in.

Everyone pushes silence.

"Even I will be able to maintain it so that it does not collapse.

Speaking of greed, I'd like both wings to make up for this burden a little bit.

"... Takeo, I'm sorry.

"No.

Mr. Elvis said you wouldn't drive me to war, but this time it's a city defense battle.

There will be things I can do.

I can't do anything in the war between thousands of soldiers. I can't participate because I'm useless.

"Hehe, Grandpa, I'll be out, too.

Alice announces her participation in the war.

"Alice, too?

"Yes. I'm not useful in wars between thousands of soldiers either.

Useful in city defense fights.

Same as two years ago.

Besides, we have to protect Master Takeo.

"Miss Alice, is that good?

"Oh? Next to you is where I am.

Master Takeo, I won't let you stand alone on the battlefield, will I?

"... I didn't know they'd say the reply to the proposal again here.

Takeo and Alice laughed at each other.

"Um, it's forbidden for both of us not to be able to do it, right?

"Yes, I'm not going to be personal.

I will definitely survive.

"Hmm. Harold, what do you think?

"I think there are fewer casualties than in the original assault.

I support Takeo's operation.

"Debit."

"The Knights Commander is right.

Also, Dear Kitamizato, if it were two of you, Miss Alice, I would convert it to 100 soldiers.

I think the center will be the same thickness as both wings.

"... then take Takeo's operation as the cornerstone.

Harold, debit, pack the details.

"" Ha!

Harold, the deputy commander and the soldier commander left the hall.
