Continental Hero Senki

It was at 11.20 a.m. that five divisions led by Senior General Gromoiko captured five Royal Army divisions moving east. The Gromoiko Legion is deployed on the right side of the Royal Army, with the forest on its back.

When he saw the formation of the Royal Army, he gladly commanded his men. The Royal Army, which walks in front of him, seemed elongated vertically, forced to try to destroy the Imperial Army Ropatnikov division heading north.

"You rebels, you took it! All hands ready for battle, start the advanced magic chant!

Gromoiko decrees, as well as the troops under the flag, enter a simultaneous combat posture. The spear soldiers formed a beautiful lateral formation, the sorcerers began chanting advanced sorcery, and the archers were waiting for the decree of synchronization, which would soon come out as well.

In a few minutes, you'll be ready to activate advanced sorcery. Over the sky, a compressed mass of magic emits light and illuminates the surroundings. At this point, Gromoiko thought that the Royal Army would have noticed the enemy attack, but the magic had already been completed. After that, the Royal Army should be in a state of confusion just by issuing a decree of activation.

He raises his right hand wide and prepares the voice to be uttered in his throat.

But before the voice jumped out of his mouth, things changed dramatically.

From the eastern direction, or Gromoiko, to the right, there was a roar coming from where the Lopatnikov division was deployed.

The identity of the sound was immediately understandable. It is also a familiar sound to him, a massive cavalry unit blasting away, and a collision with the infantry.

He understood then that he had been set in a trap. And I was able to grasp the situation in an instant. But what distinguished him from all the other imperial generals was that he was "quick to make a decision".

"Magic attack begins, target enemy center. Then the archers also attack the enemies in front. Rapidly as it densely progresses, breaking through the middle of the rebels!

Gromoiko instantly abandoned Lopatnikov. He broke through the centre of the Royal Army, which is still a long vertical formation, and tried to bypass the Karenne Forest in a significant anti-clockwise direction. Even if we lose the Lopatnikov division, if we improve our effectiveness here, we will be able to divide the pain and spare the punishment, he said.

The men under the orders of their superiors faithfully kept their orders without leaking anxiety. We couldn't help ourselves if we were standing in Lopatnikov, and we moved as brilliantly as if we understood it.

But as soon as the Gromoiko Corps reorganized its formation, there was movement in five divisions of the Royal Army.

"My lord, the enemy...!

……

The Royal Army turned right. That's still good if that's all, but the problem is that each and every member of the kingdom army just "turned right" at the same time, in that a beautiful lateral formation was completed.

When looking back at a unit, it is usually done in the larger frame of a division. It's not hard to imagine how difficult and time-consuming that is. Simply being told to "turn right" brings forward soldiers who should normally be lowered to the rear or both wings, such as sorcerers and archers.

Yet the Royal Army completed its perfect formation just by turning right. Spearmen of the avant-garde, archers of the second row of swordmen, magicians and cavalry at the rear of the line, and all soldiers lay a beautiful horizontal formation.

There's only one thing this means.

"The enemy didn't thrust and the formation was stretching vertically. From the outset, we had sidelined ourselves to destroy our legions. We were set up by the enemy!

"No... No, but the situation hasn't gotten decisively worse yet. Keep breaking through the center!

"... you're right. Assault! Assault!

Gromoiko tried to forcibly break through the center of the enemy under the cover of advanced sorcery and archers.

But the Royal Army also moved its troops as if they had been waiting for it.

The center retreats, and the right and left wings advance and place themselves under a semi-sixing position while weakening the power of the advancing Imperial Army.

Adhering to the central part of the Royal Army is a division led by Major General Schmidt, who also showed protection of the Iron Wall in the Zalesier Games. The Imperial Army could not finally defeat the robust defensive formations prepared by Schmidt.

11: 40.

The Lopatnikov division left the battlefield in a state of crushing with numerous damages. The Royal Army Kingsguard Division ignored the Lopatnikov Division, which had become the earliest incapable of combat, and attempted to hit the rear of the Gromoiko Regiment, which repeatedly made advances without breaking through the centre of the five Royal Army divisions.

Gromoiko abandoned the central breakthrough after seeing the Kingsguard division approaching from the right dorsal. While attacking the Kingsguard division, they retreated their troops in the direction of 7: 00, or in the direction where the Karenne Forest is located, to avoid being semi-surrounded.

I didn't know Gromoiko from the Eastern Continental Empire. that the forest of Karenne is also a swamp.

0: 15.

The Gromoiko Legion has been completely embedded in the mud of Karenne. The Royal Army reinforced the offense further and drove the Imperial Army down into the mud, reaching the 0: 30pm stage when all Imperial Army troops were finally stuck nestled in the swamp and unable to move.

In response to the Imperial Army's inability to move, the Royal Army added a relentless magical offensive.

It was not until 1.30 p.m. that the Imperial Army Yaroswav commander, Senior General Gromoiko, offered to surrender.

---

The Imperial Army's dead, more than 13,500. There were even more prisoners, more than 28,000.

It is good to say that only those who miraculously freed themselves from the mud and managed to escape into the woods have succeeded in fleeing in the Gromoiko Legion. It is unclear how many Imperial soldiers could have survived at all, given the fact that that number could not have been high and that there were many swamps in the woods.

The death toll of the Royal Army on the other hand is 2,600. But under the influence of repeated raids by the Gromoiko Corps over several degrees, the number of war wounded was over 8,000. Half of them were fully healed by the desperate treatment of military doctors and healing magicians, but half were irremediably incapable of fighting. Combining those who did not heal fully with the dead adds up to 4,300. Furthermore, the Royal Army's battle power will be reduced.

However, five Imperial Army divisions still exist in Yaroswav. And in northeastern Silesia, in the Lake Atheni region, there are as many as 20 divisions of Imperial Army, as well as reserves on the mainland of the Empire.

The Kingdom of Silesia had stacked a tactical victory, but no one knew how long it would last.
