Bandit, Be Ambitious! To Accomplish Kingdom Revival!

SA-076 Division of the former Kingdom of Cardina

Mr. Lady informed me that the enemy forces in the west had retreated to the Wang capital.

Now, don't tell me our victory ended the war.

You should be glad that there have been quite a few injuries, but there have been no deaths.

It also snowed when everyone returned to the fort.

The cold gets tighter and tighter. Will we be stuck in forts and villages from now on?

Everyone gathers after dinner, as usual.

After a brief princess greeting, we raised a cup of wine at the head of Mr. Zaylus.

"It's an interesting idea to say we'll have soldiers in the carriage. We should probably build a little more sturdy carriage."

"I've already thought about that. I'll take care of it!

Mr. Zairas and Mr. Riedel are deliberately drinking, but you're worried about what you can do.

"Nevertheless, I wish there had been a few more of those bombs. Aren't you going to make the next one?

"I'm hoping to make some. But I don't make a lot of them. Thirty for the catapult, twenty for the horseback squad, ten for the heavy infantry and Mr. Lady's troops will suffice."

"In that case, you want to load the catapult in the carriage. The position was surrounded by enemies just to launch first. A wagon can shoot while traveling."

Does that mean a self-propelled gun?

That sounds interesting too. It would be Mr. Riedel's show of arms. And I want to stretch the range a little further. If we can fly more than 150 meters, we're going to make up for our lack of power.

"By dividing the lightweight infantry into three groups: cargo carriage mobile units, catapult units, and position guards, it would be better for Günter to think about troop placement around it."

Mr. Gunter is answering the princess's words with a courtesy of the knight. Speaking of which, what's the difference between a knight and a soldier? Sometimes I'm surprised that there's a difference, but it doesn't seem like there's anything to say horseback squad = knight.

"Are you sure you want to say that half of the heavily armed infantry travels to the Wolf's Nest? There's a lot of prey in the winter."

"Right. Please."

The heavily armed infantry seems to be returning to the bandits. Is it still one of those professions where you can't stop once you do it?

The future will have to stop, but that's when I'm worried I'll quit the army and start bandits.

"What are we gonna do?

"Please collect your weapons. I don't have enough arrows in particular. Because I would have used it quite a bit. All light infantry are asked to bury the enemy soldiers. One platoon of heavily armed infantry should continue homemaking in the northern village."

He started a quick meeting with his deputy, snorting at my words.

Snow starts to accumulate more and more from now on. If we don't get to it early, it's gonna be tough later.

After a few days, the enemy soldiers were buried and weapons were recovered.

It seems that the collection of bolts and arrows exceeded a thousand. Probably released nearly twice that amount, but the Dwarf craftsmen seem to be doing some repairs so that the recovered items can be used again.

"As Banter put it, they're assembling troops in the north fort and the king's capital and the south fort to it. The west fort has two squadrons stationed, so it's not enough to defend it."

"Are you still saying we're going after Crabble?

"The problem is that time of year. How's the traffic?

On several occasions, the early horses travel back and forth through the streets of the river. I dare to say that I'm still passing through the early horses, but I haven't come to a conclusion by the time I attack them yet?

"The Kingdom of Crabble seems to have listened to Mr. Banter's measures. Now, don't worry about the south. Three battalions to the east, enough to intercept."

When Mr. Emilda answered my words, a commuter came in with a bump of footsteps.

"The enemy army has begun to move from Wang Du. We're going south on the streets."

"Thank you. So you headed south, as Banter put it. Later, they will attack for the early morning or evening at once."

"No, in this case the east side will be positive. You're going to cross the river during that battle. If we pull through the stone bridge, the King's capital will only have reserves."

I'll be sure the night after tomorrow.

Beyond the Raidel River, two battalions of troops are waiting for us, so the crossing will end in failure.

Even if you flip an anti-flag against your country, you may be repressed.

I'm also looking forward to the neighborhood.

"Do you want me to interrupt you for a moment?

The princess turned her gaze to me in disgust because Mr. Zaylus smiled unexpectedly at my words.

Bloating your cheeks is cute if you mules, but I guess it's time for the princess to stop.

"You hit the rear when you cross the river, right? I agree. Lord Uyle owes me a debt of gratitude, so I have to keep that position."

To say the same thing to Mr. Torrell could be alarming of an ambush.

The crossing raid is halfway across the river.

Remove the stone and they'll be alert.

"By the way, it's not like the Raidell River is a border, is it? Across the Leidel River is about 200 m (30 km) east and west of the southern fort.

The downstream side is a cliff with a large eastern ridge, so there's no other way to break in from the Cardina side than to cross the river, but if you're passing on the streets to the Torresti kingdom, do you think the river crossing is already over on the Cardina side?

In my words, the princess is looking at the map again.

Me and Mr. Torrell swam down the Radell River to get safely to Crabble as soon as possible.

I don't even think the Madenian army would bother to cross dangerous rivers.

I just want to know why we don't march on routes that seem relatively safe to travel on.

"The wasteland is spreading. Big rocks are rolling. It's a natural factor. You won't be able to ride a horse. If you're a lightweight infantry, it's possible, but it's not easy to move on, so you'll find them immediately. If you put one squad on guard, you'll be able to stop them in the King's Capital Guard."

Are you saying that there was a cause on the former Rydell River? Apparently it was a pretty rough river.

There are possibilities for a reconnaissance unit, but it feels like we can't move the army. After all, the Madenian army would choose to cross the river.

"Mr. Uyle is placing approximately two battalions south of the stone bridge. There are two squadrons of stone bridges themselves, and they will not be broken through. The problem is that the enemy troops who came across the river attacked us from behind."

Where everyone's noticed the map, keep talking.

"Mr. Zairas and Mr. Torrell, please release the fire arrows behind the crossing point. If you release one platoon twice at a time, you will know where the crossing is even on the opposite bank. Mr. Wyle and the others can get ahead of the landing site."

"You're not very aggressive..."

"There are a lot of enemy soldiers, and the range is so limited to say long bows. We still have a long way to go, so we can't lose you both here."

More than three battalions are deployed around the stone bridge. The Madenium Army horseback squad has not suffered any damage in the previous battle.

It must be more thankful to Mr. Uyle to let him know where the river crosses than to slap the rear of the Madenium army.

"But does the Madenium Army do the winter crossing at night?

"That would be what I would call an ops headquarters that doesn't know the scene. The enemy will make a point, but whether it will be a battle or not…. Still, I would say if the protection of the stone bridge were weakened, but with two squadrons we can handle it. It's a problem with the initial force, but there's one more battalion."

"But don't you always swim?

"Mr. Lady's research seems to have marked a considerable amount of baggage cars. You must have built an easy ship or raft. Still, it takes time to cross across the shore, and it takes time to cross and then take battle formation. Once you know the crossing point, you can wait at the landing point."

I guess we're all going to row together. I think I'm going to get quite a splash of water. Can't you just chill your body and fight?

"If I were to do it, I wouldn't think it would be daytime. It will probably be tonight. We'll hide in the village of Altenham and head to the south fort in the evening."

When Mr. Zairas said so and took a seat, Mr. Torrell lowered his head slightly to us and continued later.

Now you can give me a little something back. Mr. Uyle will also be placing troops by the river to explore the crossing points, but he won't be able to see them until night-time movement.

"After that, I guess I'll leave it to luck. But the idea of the banter is that we'll have a new force in the spring."

"I guess I will...... At that time, the fort at the foot and the village of Altenham will be the battlefield. You can't see it as a Madenian kingdom. I'll use my remaining force to get here."

At that time, just keep an eye on the situation.

Let's have them crush each other.

"The worst case scenario is the demise of the Madenium, right? Kneelezm and Mandale are broken bones, so you will seek that compensation from Mandale, but the Madenian kingdom has nothing to compensate for, nor the power to jump demands. Some of the troops stationed in the Kingdom of Cardina are soldiers of the Nealesm and Mandalay forces, so you can't predict the area."

"The Kingdom of Krabble cannot be divided, and the Kingdom of Cardina is in a state of war. There could be a battle between Nielezm, the Mandale coalition and the Madenian Royal Army."

"I thought maybe that would happen. At that time, the problem is the presence of the Kingdom of Warham, which has entered the vicinity of the western fort."

If I had another battalion... Can't we just look at each other?

With a militia and a platoon of light infantry, it might work out if it looks like it.

"Crushing each other is gratifying to us, but crushing each other too much could cause the Warham kingdom to collapse. How we attack the West Fort will be our challenge after the snow melts."

"Isn't that the northern fort?

"You will immediately move your troops to the King's Capital, leaving one platoon behind, but that is to oversee the restoration of the silver mine. If we stop replenishing, we can drop it immediately, so we have to think ahead. For that, we don't have enough troops. There..."

Explain the plan for mobilizing the villagers.

All we need is the number of people. Wear light infantry gear and you won't know it in the long run. A stone bow alone will suffice to defend the fort.

"Doesn't that mean it's a trick?

"Even in disguise, if you have to, you can release a stone bow. I have a problem with that."

It will be said that it will have mountainous territory. Horizontal collaboration is extremely difficult.

"How about in the fort at the foot and in the village of Altenham? If we do well, we can get to Yortern. We can also increase the number of people at once. All the more so, it takes time."

Certainly that is also a way.

But the capital of the king will fall into the hands of the kingdom of Warham.

"I don't mind giving you the King's Capital………………"

"It's not the king's capital of an already doomed kingdom. If we're going to create a new kingdom, we don't need to stick to it, do we?

Mr. Marian is watching the princess who said so with disquiet.

I guess you're saying it's that easy to break it off.

It is likely that everyone will need to think slowly around it in conjunction with the new way of governing the kingdom. He would like to express his opinions to Mr. Zairas and others.
