00078 The Dog of Humanity

The Demon Kings provoked Ami. Splitting up the army was irrational. It didn't make sense. Zephyr has stopped the cluttered airflow.

“Wait. Dantalian, keep telling me what you think. ”

“Yes, as I said before, we divide the vanguard into two groups. And then you divide the two into groups of four. ”

Ami spits in his empty laugh. He looks ridiculous and openly appeals to the surroundings. Other people looked at this side as if they were seeing a madman.

“You're dividing two squads into four squads because you're short? I wonder if you've lost your mind. ”

“I said I would listen to Dantalian. ”

Zephyr warned me, and Ami twisted his entry. He replied, "I understand quietly." I didn't see any point in apologizing to me.

“Carry on.”

“We will have a total of four units of 500 people. One of the five hundred soldiers marches away, ignoring the acidity. ”

Zephyr was a mysterious face. I couldn't feel much without reading my emotions. Why are you ignoring the acidity? Our goal is to pave the way for the main base to pass through the gates safely without incurring the greatest loss. If we ignore the acidity, we are in violation of our mission objective.

I controlled my voice calmly.

“Mr. President, do you mind if I use the map to explain?" ”

“Granted.”

Let's stay calm. I spoke with Laura several times before the meeting started. Laura de Farnese, one of the best tacticians on the continent in the future, assured me that as a gamer I knew my operation would succeed. Couldn't have failed.

“These four mountains lead first to Habsburg. ”

I pointed to the acidity with a stick.

“From green-blue-yellow-red, the coordination between each acidity is quite good. Of these, green acidity is protected by roughly 500 people. Blue acidic castles are also guarded by 500 people. There are thousands of people in yellow and red. ”

Zephar nods. He also knew about the acidic forces. A total of 3,000 enemies. It was 1.5 times more numerous than an alliance of 2,000.

“Don't you think that's strange? The human army created several acidity sites and dispersed troops. If the goal is to defend, it is more efficient to concentrate all forces on one acidity. It is clear which side of the mountain is guarded by 500,000, and which side is the fortress of immortality. ”

The four gateways were common-sense to deploy troops. Thousands of monster elite troops are enough to breach the gate of 500 Humans. If the Humans had intended to defend themselves, it would have been much better to combine 500 people stationed in a green acid castle and 500 people stationed in a blue acid castle.

Nevertheless, the human army adopted an inefficient approach. Why? Because they're fools. Or…….

Zephar narrows his eyes.

“Are you telling me the purpose of the castles is not to defend them? ”

“Exactly. ”

I understood my intentions at once. Barbatos was supposed to be first in command.

“The castles were built to stop the Moon Blitz. None of us would expect to defend the Moon Blitz with just one mountain. There's only one thing they want at these four gates. It's holding the Demon Lord's ankle until the Humans form a large force. ”

The aim of the acidity is not to defend, but to delay. I slow down the Demon Prince's advancement moderately, and the acidity will do its job.

Even if only 500 guards guarded the Green Mountain, the Demon King's army needed to pause its advance for the siege. It'll take at least a day. Reports fly through the Magic Crystal Ball to the Habsburg Empire during the day. Empire change bags immediately form an army.

“The acidity is just a scapegoat. Green, blue and yellow are bridesmaids for the acidity of red in short. A sacrificial lamb that will hold our ankles until the imperial purses send a legion to Red Mountain. ”

No matter how fast the Horsemen try to get to Green acidity, it takes at least one day to target and finish Green acidity, one day to target Yellow acidity, one day to reach Red acidity……… and five days to get here. In five days, the powerful knights of the Change Bags will be arriving at Red Mountain. Maybe the conscripts are mobilized.

“Mr. President, I can't help but worry. Soldiers stationed in the castles want to fight against the Demon King, even though they know they are the victims. They're eager to die in the first place. The power will be out to the last minute. just to slow our march one day. It is unwise to wage siege on their fortress. ”

“I understand.”

Zephar said.

“But bravery is not the reason to avoid a fight. ”

“Mr. President, I'm not suggesting we avoid a fight. Avoid siege wars. ”

“…… What are you talking about? ”

Perhaps you are a tactician, not a strategist, Jeffar. Tactics are battles that determine victory or defeat while strategies are in place. On the other hand, an important point in strategic struggle is to frustrate the other's own strategy.

“Divide the vanguard into four, first placing a unit in the middle of the green acidity and the blue acidity. Let the troops build their seriousness. The Defenders of the Mountain will be confused. At that time, another unit will attack from the front. ”

“Positive action.”

Five hundred from the rear, five hundred from the front, and a combined force of 1,000 will attack the acidity back and forth. Green acidity is easy to target.

“Of course, it's more effective than attacking the front. But the question is, why aren't we mobilizing the other two? ”

Oh, no, Captain Zephyr. Dual motion is not a ploy. means.

“To hide our power from the castles. If green acidity is knocked down by the two movements, the rest of the acidity will think like this. There are a thousand Demon King soldiers who have invaded this time. To preserve that thousand people, we used a means of bilateral warfare, ……. ”

The Demon Kings blink. Haven't you noticed yet? I told you.

“Only a thousand troops. The rest of the acidity should be enough to defend itself. The Imperial Change Bags won't move. ”

“ ……! ”

Zephar opens his eyes.

“Of course, it's a decoy! ”

“Yes, after Green Acid is Blue Acid. Repeat the same movement. I order the Five Hundred to march into the mountains, ignoring the acidity, and to build the seriousness between the blue acidity and the yellow acidity. There's no rush anywhere. It would be nice if we could just move around for a couple of days. ”

I smiled shallow.

“The more relaxed we move, the more confused our purpose will be. The objective of the Demon King's army is not to break through the acidity to the end, but perhaps to the extent of Yellow acidity and strengthen the force. It makes me feel so anxious. Perhaps there is a high chance that the enemy will mistaken our plans for hammers and anvil tactics. ”

I glanced at the side where Ami was sitting. The impression was dire. I wasn't following the story at all. Wait. I'll explain it kindly for you. I'm being generous today.

“This is what the head of the Human Army would think. The Demon Lord's army has about a thousand men. What are their goals? Taking down acidity while conserving as much power as possible. What are you most afraid of? Soldiers in one acidic city form an impregnable recession. ”

Humans will therefore understand that our Demon King is trying to break the connection between the mountains.

“A thousand attackers can beat up to a thousand defenders in Siege War. So the Demon Prince blocked the passageway with five hundred men, in case the guards were sent to a thousand or more acidic castles…… Five hundred men between acidic and acidic castles will come to the anvil, and five hundred attacking from the front of the mountain with hammers. ”

What is the best course of action for humans now?

I laughed. Oops, another bad habit popped up. I always had a sly smile when I knew something would happen the way I thought it would. That's why you won't find the Demon King's majesty. But I couldn't learn without smiling.

“Mr. President, only a thousand Demon Kings have divided their forces to take down the castles. How do you expect humankind to emerge? ”

“They must be coming out of the fortress to take us apart...! ”

Zephar slaps the table with his fist. He was clearly excited. I nodded.

There are 500 people stationed in the Blue Castle. Five hundred monsters from the rear, and five hundred monsters from the front can't hold out. Then the Humans must have decided to wage a bilateral war on their side.

A combined force of two thousand, a garrison of yellow acidity and red acidity, overwhelms the five hundred monsters behind. There's four times the difference in power. The monster army will be gone in no time. During that time, the Blue Mountains defend the monsters ahead.

Let's wrap it up.

The Humans will react individually before the Demon Prince makes his move. The Blue Acid first defends the monsters in front of you. A garrison of yellows and reds raids and wipes out the monsters behind them. Immediately he joins the Blue Acid and pushes the rest of the monster squad back with an overwhelming troop car.

It was clear that the Humans were a winning strategy. As a matter of fact, I was.

“If our vanguard has really only a thousand men. We will target the Blue Acid by mobilizing up to a thousand people that we have hidden until then. A total of 15,000 monsters attack from the front, unlike what Humans expect! ”

“ ……. ”

“Mr. President, this is the beauty of the operation. ”

Zephyr's eyes are full of excitement, but he's not smiling. But I wanted you to smile. It's a pretty fun trick.

The enemy thinks this battle is a small invasion that happens on an annual basis.

This is a lunar outpost. The Moon Blind Vanguard would never act like that, making the enemy think he can't go on long term.

The enemy thinks we are strategically planning a long-term war.

But it's a misconception. We plan short term mechanisms and force short-term mechanisms on our enemies. If you don't finish the battle any sooner, the blue acidity will spread the anxiety that it will pass before the two moves.

The enemy thinks we're doing a bidding war.

But it's a misconception. Dual warfare is a decoy, and the acidic defensive forces mislead this side. In the end, the imperial change bags will say, 'We don't need to mobilize even if we are only a thousand.' They believe that mobilizing all the troops of acidic origin will make it easier for them to get through to us.

The enemy thinks we're on our own.

But they're mistaken. They think Blue Acid is holding our advance troops, and Red and Yellow are attacking our rear. But the truth is, on the contrary, our rear troops are holding back the red and yellow of their enemies, and our front troops are attacking the blue acidity.

“The enemy is confident that they will push us into the mud, but the truth is that they will put their feet in the mud. As soon as we abandon our basic acidic strategic mission, our vanguard will fall without falling into a single drop of deserted acid. And, pheasant. ”

“ ……. ”

“Poetry, excuse me. Captain Barbatos must have brought his base to take over Yellow Mountain by now. Cheers! You've conquered Red Castle! I couldn't help but think of how you would react when you saw that. ”

I couldn't take it anymore. I laugh out loud. My laugh echoes through the barracks. Less bipolar than before. It seemed like my symptoms had exploded.

“Hahahaha!”

Commander Zephar smiled along with me to see if he couldn't resist the laughter this time. Indeed, he was strict and solemn on the outside, but had this sense of humor. I knew it. Without a sense of humor, there's no way I'm going to kill myself under a guy like Barbatos. He's got a mind of his own.

But no one laughed except for the two of us. Somehow, the newcomer Demon Kings came out with a slightly whiter face and were alternately looking at Zephyr. They were all squeamish faces.

Where did you run off to, Ami? This is a pretty tasty joke. Smile all you want. If he's as neat as you are, the joking party will be embarrassed. If Barbatos were here, he would have given me his navel and burned it down. Don't expect Ami to have that sense of humor. I am truly sorry.

“Excellent. We will proceed as Dantalian has planned. First, destroy the Green Mountain! ”

That day, Commander Zephyr fully advised me on my operation.

Operation Name. It was the commander's name. It's not an appropriate tactical name. The eggs of the Five Hundred Clans will suck out 2,500 human soldiers who remain in the mountain fortress as an ant inferno.

The acidic guards call themselves the Watchdogs of humanity. A good hobby of claiming to be a dog. However, the target is not good. Your Watchdogs will die in vain without even notifying their master of a single cry. I make it like that, not like anyone else....
