Almost east of the Gornew Fortress, there is a city called Azer.

To get there, it is necessary to pass through the vast plains of Fulmus through small, high hills.

The St. Orion National Army is already in formation in the hills and, by contrast, the Grand Army, whose official name is the northern side of the Holy Bandham Kingdom of Orion and known as the Brute Ease Army, will be in formation in the plains.

"Well, the enemy is 140,000, this one is 120,000, and the power difference isn't that great, but this one is slightly less favorable. Admiral Ajaha, can I help you?

On my right, the noblemen, headed by the generals of the Royal Army, sit, pinch the desk and on the other side of it, that is, on my left, my direct ministers pinch the desk.

There is no denying disadvantage in soldiers and in the formation. In the meantime, it was about twenty minutes ago that the generals of the tingling atmosphere continued to rush into my tent.

So, I'm in the middle of a military debate right now.

"As His Excellency said, the battle power difference will be in the error range, but the enemy will have difficulty attacking it because it is forming on the hill. I think it would be a good idea for the officers to stiffen up their defenses and wait for their enemies to rush down the hill."

This war is a so-called war of aggression.

In other words, it is the Kingdom of Holy Bandham that is marching, and the State of St. Orion is the highest priority to prevent the invasion of the Army of the Kingdom of Holy Bandham. Considering Admiral Ajaha's ideas based on that mindset would put us at a disadvantage if we took the time.

Why disadvantage, it is in the length of the supply line. St. Orion's side has a supply base right around the corner called Azer, whereas we are far from the Gornew Fortress.

In the case of these invasion operations, replenishment becomes important, so securing the supply route becomes the most important issue.

The current composition of the Brute Ease Army is 5,000 Duke of Brute Ease, 16,000 Third Army of the Kingdom, 15,000 Fifth Army of the Kingdom, 16,000 Eighth Army of the Kingdom, 16,000 Eleventh Army of the Kingdom, 15,000 White Army, 20,000 Army of the Gornew Inspectorate General, 5,000 Helplence Brigade, 12,000 Marquis of Sagarathi, for a total of over 120,000 troops.

Fifteen thousand other Cypriot Marquis armies exist, but the Cypriot Marquis is asked to secure a supply route and command heavy soldiers.

There were various objections to making the new Cypriot Marquis responsible for the replenishment, but as far as I'm concerned, I think I can be trusted because I'm a Cypriot Marquis saddled from St. Orion to the Kingdom of St. Bandam. If the front line collapsed due to a lack of supply, the rookie Marquis of Cyprus would have narrow shoulders within the Kingdom of Holy Bandham, and more than that, if the Saint Orion National Army had marched in large numbers, it would only think of a miserable future without forgiving the backcutters.

That's why I put the Marquis of Cyprus in charge of replenishment.

Even so, there's a magic bag over here, and I'm letting my men manage it separately, and I can keep tons of supplies in storage myself, and at worst, I can create them. That's why we carry supplies unexpectedly lightly, so securing supply routes is just in case, to keep the minds of those who don't know about magic bags at ease.

Of course, I can bring supplies with the transfer if necessary, but I won't do anything about the velcro bag or my storage from the beginning because it is the last resort if the replenishment is dimensioned.

"Does Admiral Ichijo agree?

"I'm slightly dissatisfied with waiting for the enemy to come down."

"So do you want to attack?

"No, I'm not a pig warrior enough to mount an attack on a geographically advantageous enemy with more troops than this one."

It was only recently that I heard that General Ichijo, who commands the eighth army of the Royal Army, was a good general.

I'm looking forward to seeing what such an Ichijo General will come up with.

"So what do you do?

"I retreat."

The inside of the tent squatted for a moment, but it fits right in.

"Are you going to make a retreat without a fight?

"Do you have such a stupid story!

Lieutenant General Fried and Lieutenant General Rottenheim are unhappy.

But you can't retreat so easily, General Ichijo says' retreat '. I urge General Ichijo to continue the conversation with my eyes.

"That's a pseudo even when I say I'm going to retreat. When you retreat, you make them look good and invite the enemy down the hill. Or you can make it look like you're going around the hills to Azer."

"Hmm, but do you want to ask me out easily? How many fanatics don't think you're that stupid?

Admiral Ajaha makes a cautious argument.

Admiral Ajaha stated in a background check that his thoughts would turn backwards when the situation was unfavourable.

Hmm? Are you doing a background check or something? That's what I'm going to do. A background check on the general who was in charge is mandatory.

I believe it is necessary as someone who stands above people to know the vicinity of the general, the way he thinks, and his principles of action. I don't want to stand on people, but you can't move generals like your hands or your feet unless you have trouble collecting personal information because you can't say so, can you? Above all, I can't bear to be made good by the Orion motherfuckers.

It is this Admiral Ajaha who returns to the subject and makes a cautious argument, but it is this Admiral Ajaha who insisted strongly on this march to the Plains of Frumus.

Even the same generals insisted on attacking a city called Pram on the north side of this Fulmus plain.

Me, my ministerial corps, and Lieutenant General Kikkawa of the White Army were in favor of Admiral Ichijo's proposal considering the risk of horizontal alignment being poked by reinforcements from Plum when confronted with the enemy in this Frumus plain, but Admiral Ajaha insisted on a divine speedy invasion of the Frumus plain because of the need to hold back the hills quickly.

As a result, I feel angry that Admiral Ajaha is acting as if he doesn't think anything of it.

"It's advantageous over numbers, so if this one makes it look like it's going to retreat or detour, you'll be on the invite. If the enemy abandons the hill, if we go into an inverted offensive, at least the geographic disadvantage will disappear."

Admiral Ichijo seems to want at least the geographical disadvantage to be eliminated.

"My lord, may I speak?

"Chief of Staff, or allow me to speak"

It is unfortunate and troublesome that in front of the minded we speak in a shattered way, but just in the place where the heavy towns and nobles of the Royal Army gather, we are changing the way we speak, and the way we speak to our direct ministers, including Clara and Perón, has become tough.

I didn't care when I was Count, but these days when I became Duke, everyone draws more lines of obedience than I do.

"On the basis of General Ichijo's proposal, we propose to back the enemy with an inverted offensive."

"Behind the enemy?

"We attack defensive positions built by our enemies while they are in position. Fortunately, at this time of year, the land will have strong winds from night to dawn, so I was wondering if it would be convenient to move a different team."

You want to say that strong winds cancel out the noise that comes out when soldiers travel.

"It's good to poke you in the back, but you can't count another team. If you move too many soldiers, even if the wind deceives the sound, you are more likely to be known to the enemy, and most importantly, the defense of the unit will be weaker."

As always, Admiral Ajaha is a cautious theory. But I don't think Clara's idea is bad.

The enemy will float if this way holds down the defensive position that has become a stubborn shell, or they may be able to strike back there if they retreat to reclaim the defensive position.

Assuming the enemy splits the troops in an attempt to recapture the defensive position, the unit defending the defensive position will need a lot of fighting power because enemy onslaught is expected on the unit holding the defensive position.

However, it is not without problems.

This operation presupposes that the enemy empties almost the defensive position. I don't mean up to the sky, but at least I think we have to drop the number of soldiers defending the defensive positions to a few thousand or so.

Failure to do so will result in a failed offense if a single enemy army returns while another team is fighting.

"Does the Chief of Staff have any idea about a separate team?

"The operation emphasizes secrecy, and we need to guard the defensive positions we hold back even more. So I was wondering if it would be a good idea to take on General Kikkawa."

Lieutenant General Kikkawa often used ambushes and ambushes, and it should have been stated that Lieutenant General Kikkawa also had a reputation for defense.

I guess that's why Clara came up with this draft, too.

"Lieutenant General Kikkawa, is the Chief of Staff's proposal operational at the operational level?

"... it would be possible.... However, the number of guards in defensive positions should be reduced as much as possible. If possible, it will need to be less than one army. And I was wondering if I needed to be accompanied by a good wizard."

"Hmm, let the wizard select a few good ones. Baron Carla von Cook, so as to select those who meet the demands of Lieutenant General Kikkawa"

She nods softly as I send Carla my gaze.

"Then let's split the army in two at the same time as we retreat and lure as many enemies as possible.

Lieutenant General Fried, who spoke, had a reputation for the offense, but it was in the report that he was brittle for his defense. That's Lieutenant General Fried's suggestion.

"Is there any solution for Lieutenant General Fried?

"You should make it look good when you head to Azel and Plum. I hear that the enemy general is General Kazun of Saint Seven or that he (or) has a reputation as a swine warrior. If you ask him out, he'll come aboard without thinking."

I don't think they'll come on board without thinking about it, but actually, I don't consider myself General Kazun. Perhaps General Ichijo also proposed a retreat in anticipation of it.

There was the same backwards statement from Admiral Ajaha, but ignoring it, the compromise between Admirals Ichijo and Clara and Lieutenant General Fried was to be transferred to implementation.

Will Admiral Ajaha ignore you, because?

That's right - if there's anything I should ask, but I'm annoyed that if I tell Lieutenant General Kikkawa to split his army in two after sending his white army to a defensive position offense, the defense of the main unit will be thin or something.

I'm already a cunt about all I can say is that I don't get it.

Azer, the central city in the western periphery of St. Orion, is the hub of food production.

It is Zambal Baren, who is also the Cardinal of Orion, who governs this Great Barn Zone.

Zambal came out of the Count Barren family, one of the leading houses in St. Orion, but now he has been moved left and ruled Azer on the border.

In the State of St. Orion, nobility governs the land because there is no land inherited by nobility and the teaching that all the land is the property of the pope. The nobility has assumed his duties as proxy for the pope for a term of five years.

However, there are tenure terms for the governance of these peripheral areas, but few are recalled from the periphery even after that term expires.

In fact, Zambal is already in its thirteenth year in the third period.

The St. Orion nation is so closed and conservative that it is said that those who are once off the course of birth will never hold a central high office for the rest of their lives.

"Is Lord Kazun all right?

"I was wondering if it would be Sacred Seven Generals Kazun!

Even if Zambal's aides respond forcefully, Zambal doesn't trust Saint Seven that much.

Because Zambal knows that when St. Orion was founded, he didn't have to know, and now the General of the Seventh Holy General is a raper who is corrupt and better at politics than war.

But it is the truth that we now also have to rely on the likes of the Kazun of the Seventh Holy Admiral to stop the march of the Holy Bandham Royal Army.

"Should we assume the worst..."

This Zambal word was not heard by the aide because it was uttered in a voice as small as a soliloquy.

As for Zambal, he had already given up returning to the center, and now he was aware that it was his days working for preservation and accumulation of wealth and that such himself would be the same rapist as Kazun.

Still, I guess it's just better to think you're the one protecting the lives of folk grass living in Azer.

Such Azel lowers his aide. Think about what's to come.

"I hear that the Duke of Brute Ease in the Kingdom of Holy Bandham is young and discerning. At worst, surrender is unavoidable... because you can't burn this azel..."

He swung his head around that idea. He shifted his gaze to the paperwork on the desk and tried to start his affairs. Arrow tip.

"I suggest you descend into the Kingdom of Holy Bandham."

"Huh!!

Those who inadvertently speak to Zambal, who have shifted their gaze to the paperwork, should not be in this office.

I let my gaze swim in the room, but no one.

Zambal said you heard him clearly in his empty ear. No one checked the room twice or three times.

"Are you tired?

Looking again at the desk paperwork, there was an unfamiliar letter placed there instead of the paperwork that should have been there before.

"This is..."
