Continental Hero Senki

Brigadier General Matheus' office is transformed into an impromptu operations conference room by the report of Mr Zeman. I thought I didn't have to call command personnel, but unfortunately, this defeated unit is in the grief of total command annihilation due to various reasons.

……

"... Um, Major? What's the matter, sir?

"No, it's nothing"

And I'm all disturbed and grumpy. No, let's not do this anymore, now we'll just have to focus on the fight in front of us.

For now, Brigadier General Matheus is the only one in command, so what kind of command will he take for now?

"Hmm. I'm sorry about the lady, but you better clear your enemies first, huh?

Oh, I know that there. No, naturally, I'm still Brigadier General. No way. Not the Ostomark army that can be promoted to Brigadier General just because of the martial family fame... right?

"Sergeant Zeman, you don't know the size of the enemy, do you?

"Yes. It only means cavalry"

I don't have the means to do that. But the enemy is also under siege, so I don't think he's going to make a massive offense, and he's probably going to destroy the trade, or the enemy, or something around there. To restrain this move in guerrilla warfare by the cavalry and prevent it from breaking the siege.

If the Friends under siege here do not surrender and are wiped out, the Ostmarc army in this regard will only have this defeated unit.

"So, what would Yuzef do?

While Mr. Zeman and His Excellency the Brigadier General report to each other, me, Sarah and Mr. Feene wait at the edge of the office. That's what Sarah asked me then.

"Hmm... The enemy says cavalry, and I wonder what the expert (Sarah) 's opinion would be"

"Is that okay with my opinion?

Spring War is a good idea, isn't it?

During the Spring War, she robbed the Imperial Army of its ability to continue fighting by raiding the Eastern Continental Imperial Army rear supply base via the neutral country Laskino. It is thanks to Sarah that the Aeresund Pact of Reconciliation was given a text in favour of Silesia.

"Nothing. There was both Emilia and Radek then... plus Yuzef would come up with it easily, wouldn't you?

"No, I don't know"

I read the battle details, but I was impressed that it was a well-conceived piece of bold maneuver that far. I don't know if I could have had the same idea even if I was on the spot because creativity varies from individual to individual.

"For now, I want Sarah's opinion."

"............... Well, if that's the case. I'm not sure."

"Never mind. I don't always say I'm confident in my own maneuvers."

No, really. I feel the more confident and operational I've set up, and it's a truly intelligent world.

"Right. For now, it might be a good idea to ignore it."

"Ignore?"

"Yeah. Something that says a cavalry has mobility, but it can't keep moving forever. You just have to wait and fight back when they're tired and weak."

"I see..."

Indeed, now the central army is in an enemy land that says Ostmarc. Even if we make the troops that are currently besieging our friends, there will soon be a supply problem. Even if you say it's close to the border, it's hard to say that's what enemy encroachment is.

It is her seemingly long body and profound invasion within the Eastern Continental Empire.

But the problem is that the troops under siege aren't going to last that long. Troops under siege destroy themselves while waiting for the enemy's self-destruction.

"Adding a time limit, what do we do?

"... don't ask me anything difficult."

Are you saying it's difficult even with Sarah?

"You just have to think of yourself as the cavalry of Christ today"

"I don't think I've changed much.... Well, I figured I'd just have to strike straight at where the enemy cavalry is based and take away its ability to act. Like when Emilia did."

"His Highness's?

"Look, when we were first year cadets,"

"Ah......"

Sure. Is the situation similar then? If so, it will be said where the enemy base is.

"Mr. Fine. Is there any place near here that could be an enemy stronghold?

"This neighborhood is a barn zone, so the countryside is dotted everywhere. I don't know what kind of place would be a cavalry stronghold, but I was still wondering if it would be difficult to establish."

That's pretty bad?

If they're willing to do that, you just have to change bases and start guerrilla fights overnight, one fight at a time. I knew my besieged friends would be wiped out while I was searching for a base.

then......

"I knew we had to somehow destroy the enemy cavalry itself"

"How?

"The only way to fight a cavalry guerrilla battle is to fight a cavalry guerrilla battle."

"I mean, my turn?

"I don't know..."

For once, we're just opinionated people.

I thought that if the Goddess (Sarah) asked the Brigadier General, she would be able to take command, but then Sarah would be taken.

Anyway, it's up to His Excellency the Brigadier General to decide.

---

A few minutes later, a follow-up report from the vigilance unit enters.

"Enemy cavalry was spotted about four kilometers southeast of Caroyano. A few, about 200, 250."

"... issue an enemy attack alert to all units of the Caroyano garrison. All units, prepare for battle."

"Ha!"

Sergeant Zeman, who received the order, withdrew. It will also depend on the extent to which the troops have been reconfigured at the gathering of the defectors, but it will take some time for them to be ready.

By the way, there are currently no Sarah and Mr. Fine. No. Do you say you run out of errands rather than say you've run out of errands? He said, "What are you doing here..." But yeah, I'll see you later on that.

"What is your intention, Brigadier General? You intend to remain captive of the Christ Empire and dictate guards?

"That's not bad either"

Yes.

"But if you're going to dictate guards, you don't think it's more efficient to dictate them as winners instead of captives?

"No, I don't."

"What. You're not interested in men's habits."

"... My lord, that's not what you're saying"

Well, enemy cavalry 250 won't lose. Even if there was a main unit in the rear, the total would be about 1,000. Earlier Mr. Fine confirmed the residual strength of this unit, but the safe cavalry remains at 1800. Although advantageous in terms of numbers.

"... right. I'd like to hear your opinion on a military adviser and a highly respected officer."

"If you don't mind in the opinion of the dwarf,"

"That's your job, isn't it?

It sounds like a lie they were telling me earlier about the kid or something. I wonder if he's someone who can switch between wartime and normal time.

"In my opinion, I know if we should destroy this cavalry operating in the vicinity to turn down the worries of our patrons and rescue the Klein Corps isolated among our enemies. This is Ostmarc territory, and I was wondering if the land is in your ranks."

"... you're right. So, do you have a specific interception operation proposal?

I'd like to hear your thoughts first.

Maybe Brigadier General Matheus is surprisingly competent, isn't he? Just being a woman.

"The total number of enemy cavalry is 250, and my unit is 7,000. On the number, our army is in our favor, and if so, we will not be forced to engage."

"... ha"

I just heard. From the Goddess (Sarah).

"But I can't even tell you how long it takes to save a friend under siege?

"Saying it's under siege is a cage fight. It doesn't matter how they burn the city. It'll last a week."

"So, what do you think will help improve the situation within a week, including the time to rescue it?

…………

"Your Excellency?"

Don't shut up there?

"I wouldn't have a hard time with that"

Don't you?

No, really. I wonder how this guy got to be Brigadier General.

"... so I wanted to ask your military advisor about the proposal. Do you have any ideas?

I don't know if Brigadier Matheus' attitude is gradually going from light to normal because of the sense of crisis, or if he wants to sidestep my grip and make it his result.

"There is. I thought it would depend on your command to succeed."

Well, in any case, command rests with the Brigadier General, and nothing like watching martial arts officers. Shall I make my suggestion and see what the Brigadier General has to offer you?

"... talk to me"
