Continental Hero Senki

This war is a civil war.

Civil war means fighting one's own people against another.

Within our own country, we fight among our own people.

Therefore, we fight in a slightly different way than normal wars.

"- According to information from villagers near Torn, the enemy, or Grand Duchy, has placed a significant number of defensive units in Torn"

That's usually what local residents teach us about hostility. Anyway, it's the same people, so it's quick to talk. That would not be the case if this were an invasion operation against an enemy country.

And if you give me the information, I'll distribute the supplies and the money to thank you. If there's a diligent human being, he says, "If it's anything, I'm going to Torn and count how many there are!" or so I would say.

... No, I was actually there.

It's kind of more than war. "How do I get to Wang Du? Oh, this street straight? Thanks!".

And that seems to have occurred to Radek, a supply officer in the war.

"You're at war, aren't you, us?

"There's no such thing as war."

I'm not very confident.

3 December 638 Continental Calendar.

A little over two months after the start of the civil war in Silesia, the first large-scale attack of the Kings was launched on this day. The goal is the borderline city of Torn between the Kings and Grand Duchy forces. It's usually 10 days in the march, so if nothing gets in the way, we'll arrive on the 13th.

Of course, that won't happen.

There's no way the enemy won't do what we're doing to gather information.

The Kings have three divisions led by Lt. Gen. Herman Yogihes and an elite Kingsguard 3rd Cavalry Regiment, which together number about 33,000. The power of the Grand Duchy against -,

"Radek, what's your expected enemy strength?

"The amount of produce being unloaded from the surrounding countryside toward Torn is considerably higher than it was after the pre-war war. Torn's population, rural production and reserves across the front, how could you expect from this fucking cold weather... Torn's Grand Duchy Army just said an estimate of 20,000 to 30,000."

No, that's the supply officer for the war. Really.

Sometimes, of course, this kind of information is easily available because it is domestic.

"Assuming it's 30,000 enemy troops, is the power difference almost equal?"

"But didn't Yuzef tell you that we're in a shortage of officers?

"I told you... but maybe things are similar over there."

There are senior officers out of the grand aristocracy, but it seems possible that there is a shortage of junior officers consisting mainly of junior aristocrats and civilians...... Although the Kings do not have senior officers from the great nobility and junior officers from the great nobility's children.

... Both of them, right?

Well, I can't help but worry about it. You should consider that there is no difference in power.

"Then you have to choose a terrain that feels good. The terrain in favor of this side..."

That's why it's a map and a stare.

Current date and time Continental calendar morning of December 8, 638.

Location Brodnicza, a town at the midpoint between Orshtin and Torn, the territorial capital of the Duke of Rosenstock.

Up to this point, I was able to move my legions without any particular problems. The problem is west of Brodonitza, which would be hooked up to the enemy's information network.

In that place, we must find and reach favorable terrain in the field faster than our enemies.

Favourable terrain includes hills that often have a view of the enemy and can attack it unilaterally, forests and lakes and rivers that can contain enemy offenses, and plains where cavalry forces can be maximized.

And more importantly, a place near the streets where kings, grand dukes march......

"Clonzino"

I found that and accidentally squealed.

---

I submitted a specific draft operation to Brigadier General Tarnovsky, Chief of Staff of the Yogihs Division, accompanied by Radek's estimated enemy forces' anticipated strength.

After the Brigadier General's first reading, before asking whether he agreed or disagreed, His Excellency the Brigadier General has thrown some questions at me, as if he were going to do an interview exam.

"Clonzino? What made you choose that place?

"Yes, Kronzino is first and foremost at the midpoint between Brodnizza and Trn, a place where both armies are likely to clash. On top of that, Crondino has rivers and lakes and swamps, and there are hills, and I think our army can do more than a few things if we can secure them."

Anyway, the Kings are influencing morale thanks to His Highness Emilia being disoriented, and even without it, they are inferior to his absolute strength with the Grand Duchy. If we can win while minimizing sacrifices, we'll have momentum.

That's what it says in the draft operation.

"I see. But from here to Kronzino it's usually two days away in the march, whereas from Torn to Kronzino it's a day away. Then can't you imagine that the enemy forces who knew about our movements would move to get the favorable terrain you said?

"I can think of enough. So let one division with good morale and skill precede you as a scout to win the race against the enemy army. If you're a forcible army, you'll get it in a day. And if there are enemies on the ground, we will eliminate them to the scout division, and if they are disadvantaged, we will cut off enemy forces until the unit arrives."

If necessary, the 3rd Cavalry Regiment with Sarah should also be brought forward at last. That regiment, or Sarah, would not lose first if it were the same one cavalry regiment.

I've never thought of sending anyone I like to the front line... Rather, it is up to her to think that the front line might be safer for her. Because it's Sarah.

I had a few questions afterwards, but that was all written in the draft operation within my expectations. So answer exactly that, and some of them rethink and change.

After hearing my answer, the Brigadier General smiled slightly.

"After all, I wasn't wrong to give you 99 tactical points."

"Thank you, my lord"

It would be satisfactory and good to get a passing score from an educator. Unless it's ironic.

But is it because you find the Brigadier General's smile strangely uncomfortable?
