00099 King and General

* * *

Archers, fall back!

Von Rosenberg's change bag encountered reports of first-line units at relatively short notice. The Imperial Army has had constant comms between the lower and higher forces. Thanks to these, the Imperial Army was able to work closely with each other.

“Has the Demon Lord entered Counter Stance? ”

“No, sir. You have deployed a small army to defeat each of the Archers. ”

The officer answered, stiff. Now the palace had not only Fritz Rosenberg's change bag, but also Rudolph Habsburg, the first royal heir to the Habsburg Empire, General Michael Colobrat, General Johann Kutusov, Mercenary Commander Ferdinand Valentine ― the Supreme Commander of the Imperial Army.

As a liaison officer, they were truly men of great character. I had to report their withdrawal. …… Maybe I was angry at the poor report, such as baptizing the Crown Prince into kicking himself as a communications officer. Then, for the rest of my life, I was to live in the military with a tag labeled 'The Crown Prince has trampled on me.' Growth is like crossing the water. The liaison officer resented the archers who were defeated by the monsters, and most of all, he was cursed with the fate of having to report this….

“Look at that, Earl! ”

Prince Rudolf said in a loud voice.

“Unless you warned your sister that passive operations are useless. The quantities that would become the Knights of the Waste have been left on the ground. Talent is power. Isn't the Earl taking the lives of soldiers lightly? ”

“I beg your pardon.”

The bag bows politely towards the Crown Prince. I was there, but I learned theft from the movement. The Crown Prince shakes his hand in the sense of acceptance of forgiveness. But I didn't feel overwhelmed.

‘Cockroach who lives by parasites in the Empire. ’

Prince Rudolf dreamed of a powerful absolute monarch. One day, I wanted to become an emperor and abolish all the change bags. To him, the change bag was no more than a potential traitor with an overwhelming army. One monarch, one paratrooper, and one nation-a nation that would only impede local military action on the way to the absolute monarchy.

The Crown Prince's insides were expressed in some way. It wasn't just his crooked face. Prior to the start of the battle, the Emperor did not lead the central army, but instructed the Change Bag to move the troops first. I even decided to put mercenaries behind me. It was evident that the intention was to consume the armies of the change bag.

The change bag, of course, protested against the very common sense that the military should not interfere with disputes. The Crown Prince and generals in the Central Armed Forces responded briefly.

― ― If not, surrender military command.

Fritz von Rosenberg had a headache. I had no choice. As a general commander, their logic was not entirely wrong. The mere change force had to endure some bleeding to pose as the leader between 20,000 Central and 20,000 mercenaries. In the end, the infantry and knights currently stationed against the Demon King's right-hand side consisted entirely of the changed army's 10,000 troops. Once the bold decision of the change bag was made, the Crown Prince and the Central Armed Forces took a step back. Let me see how well you command the army.

The change bag told the liaison officer.

“The archers were the acolytes of all the knights. Shhh, I wouldn't have lost. What kind of sickness did the Demon Prince recruit? ”

“I was a monster in black armor. A giant sword wielding a man's height……. ”

“A knight of death. ”

The change bag reminded me of my grandfather's diary and immediately cut off the contact officer's back. He swallowed the moan. The change bag's grandfather was also a change bag, leaving little to do with battles against the Demon Prince's army in the last hundred years. It begins with the sentence, "According to what was written a hundred and fifty years ago," and describes in detail how terrifying the knight of death is. The change bag had been read dozens of times since I was a child, so I could easily recall the Knights of Death.

Then the other generals were interested. The Knight of Death. That's a very strange name. The face of the central military, not the face of the general himself, was problematic when Valentine Mercenary Captain skillfully read the atmosphere.

The mercenary commander asked.

“Commander General. I've never heard of a monster called the Death Knight. It is also a collection that has been to every corner of the continent. Can you tell me what kind of monster it is? ”

“Immortal monsters, of course, spiritual monsters. It is known that only the Dark Mages of the Seven Circles can serve. He has the strength of a hundred men, so each and every one of them is equal to the most elite knight. ”

“Oops.”

The mercenary commander shrugs.

“Those are some pretty scary creatures. ”

“The eighth ranking Demon King, the nearest force to Barbatos. I've never heard of a Demon King who's not Barbato. He's a Death Knight. The Demon Prince seems awfully sturdy. ”

“Hao. In that case, there is a Demon King Barbatos at the right hand of the enemy. Is that wise?" ”

The change bag shakes its head.

“That's unlikely. Only a very small number was placed, judging by the fact that they were merely stars in a tombstone. Dispatch, report to the size of the annex. ”

“Yes, there are some sizeable differences, but there are about sixty monsters encountered by the archers. ”

“Sixty Maries. ”

The change bag stroked the mustache. Sixty, although not many troops, not very few. The Knight of Death is by far the most powerful disease in the Demon Lord's army, except the Bone Dragon. Such monsters were placed in the Demon Prince's right-hand corner. …… That is, right-wing is the weakest weakness for the Demon King, and the Demon King Barbato has eliminated all of the guards to compensate for that weakness.

The change bag thought that the right side might be weaker than expected if it needed to replenish sixty Marines. Even if the temptation to use the Horseman failed, the situation is not reversed or reversed. At best, the bonus disappeared. The fact that this side is advantageous does not change....

─ Swallow.

The liaison officer swallowed the needle. Sixty Knights of Death, this was an exaggeration of the numbers of the First Battalion commanders. At present, 10,000 Empire troops against the right-wing interests of the Demon Prince were the Change Army. However, the commander of the division, who oversaw all of them, was not in the change group, but in the central group. The change bag was sent by a central military leader on his behalf, not a step from Central Command to carry out his mission.

Here lies the disease of the Habsburg Imperial Army.

As Dantalian predicted, the top of the Imperial army was divided into two groups. The Central Army and the Change Army had a disagreement over who wanted to take command of each other in combat, which led to the political march of the first-line field commanders.

The failure of the Central Armed Forces General led to weakening of the command of the Central Armed Forces, and the failure of the Change Armed Forces General led to weakening of the command of the Change Army. Therefore, when the Archer Tactics returned to failure, the Master reported that he was not defeated because he was incapacitated, but that he was defeated because there were too many enemies.

It was a matter of having a nominal Commander-in-Chief and a practical Commander-in-Chief in the beginning. With two heads on one body, the army could not have gone well. The reason the system was so inefficient was so that if the war was won, Prince Rudolph, the nominal Commander-in-Chief, would take all responsibility to the substantial change of the Commander-in-Chief.

It was also pierced by Prince von Rosenberg's change bag. Considering the position of the family, he sent his blind support to Prince Rudolf, but his current behavior was somewhat unpleasant. Especially the most detestable were not the Crown Prince, but the Central Armed Forces, who sat beside the Crown Prince and aimed for command of the Hoshitham army. So...

‘All the nobles in the middle are like cockroaches. ’

The central group was chosen to treat the changing group as cockroaches and the changing group as cockroaches. The Central Army was outraged by the fact that the Imperial Consort had used the Führer's fighting force in a friendly battle, and that even the strangely lost captain had taken command of his territory. The Movement was outraged at the Central Army's attitude of underestimating and not trusting more professionals than anyone else in the Battle of the Demon King.

Meanwhile, the emperor said he was strengthening the power of the monarchy, carrying the support of the central military generals on his back and trying to interfere with his command, and the mercenary commander became the middle leg and tried to maximize the neurological warfare between the generals, but at the end, he was led to the emperor, his employer.

The results were simple.

“The warden complained from the start. It's wrong to blindly attack with a catapult! ”

“What are you talking about now? Not all of us agreed to the last meeting. ”

“The dialysis attack limits the movement of our allies, not just our enemies. Stop it moderately. ”

“The archers have failed, it's obvious. ”

“That's why I'm sending in the death squad, or not! ”

First, the meeting was very long. Hours and hours of meetings have not led to conclusions. Of course, Commander Hwangbak knew very well that a long meeting in the middle of a war would not benefit his allies.

“Very well. As it turns out, right-wing will attack 10,000 alone." ”

Even to end the meeting, he decided to take responsibility for all the operations on his own.

“Hmmm.”

“Well, let's do that. Hmm.”

The Crown Prince and the Central Army generals glanced at the change bag without much notice. There was no reason for the General to disagree that he would move his troops. Of course, if the commander's solo attack fails, they are always ready to rush in like wild dogs and bite Von Rosenberg's change bag…….

There was only one reason why Fritz von Rosenberg stood firm, even though he was welcomed with foreign currency.

Absolute confidence!

He believed in his army. He also found out that the right-hand side of the Demon King's army is the weakest. A powerful ally strikes a weak enemy, and the bag was convinced that it would not be defeated.

“You will take your orders and leave immediately. ”

“Yes, Commander! ”

Command's orders have been sent directly to the forward Imperial Army. It was an order signed by Prince Rudolf himself. After the emperor had effectively retired from the regime, there could not have been a heavier order in the Habsburg Empire. General Kienmicher of the Central Army shouted in a loud voice to Lt. Gen. Jeoha immediately.

“All forces, advance! ”

8500 foot soldiers and 15,000 knights marched towards the dark fog.

Wherever they were headed, there was an army of 4,000 monsters, carefully built over several days by the Demon King's right-hand man. The order issued to the Imperial Army was to break through to the right of the enemy, and the order issued to the Demon King was to defend the right.

The assault by Von Rosenberg, the shield of the Empire Army's Chang 'al and the Sixth Armed Forces of the Monthly Blind, and the best defense of the 16th place, King Zephar.
