00197 Pilgrimage Path

The next day, Zachry brought me news.

“The Brittany army has entered the Imperial Circle. ”

“Hmm. Is it exactly 20 days since crossing the border……. ”

I looked down. The map was spread out on the table.

“That's a dead end. ”

“Are you able to split bamboo...?" Absolutely. ”

The Dwarf Zachry nods. Occasionally, when I wrote the sarcophagus, my meaning was not conveyed, but just translated into words. I don't know what the mechanism looks like.

By the way, I came to Frank and realized I have a very fancy pronunciation. One day Zachry pointed out that he drank beer.

‘It's like the language of the palace aristocrat. Has His Holiness Dantalian been taught a different language? ’

‘Oh, well. Yes.'

‘I also heard that you are proficient in Habsburg. Are you fluent in any other languages? ’

Maybe we can use all the existing languages as our own. In this world, people, especially those rich enough to buy magical artifacts, don't want to learn Zombie foreign languages. There is translation magic.

"Well, every language in the human world is one. ’

‘Really, you're amazing! ’

Zachry was surprised.

‘Usually the Demon Monarchs are lazy... … No, of course not the Demon Monarch of Dantalian. You're amazing.'

‘Hm. Hm. ’

After that day, Zachry began to look at me with a more respectful look. I shut up. I'm stabbed with a conscience, but what does it matter? My conscience is stabbed anyway. I've already been slaughtered a hundred times.

Anyway, now it was more about Frank than my graceful pronunciation.

They entered the capital just 20 days after the invasion. You move unusually fast. Even if you march without a single battle, you will not believe it. I don't know if there was really no battle....

“Even if the Franks can't use their powers, they can't. This is it.”

“The Kingdom of Brittany is more powerful than I expected. The queen's reputation is uncanny. ”

Here's the situation.

After a sudden break-in, the nobles of Frank were right-wing at first. The War of the Monthly Blinds is not over yet. While the Demon King's forces and the human forces were repeating themselves over and over again, I could not have imagined that they would attack from the same side.

“Especially, the nobles of Frank borrowed a lot of troops for the Lunar War expedition. The border patrol would have been more neglectful than usual. ”

Zachry strokes his beard.

“The nobles of Frank have fiercely condemned Brittany for how humanity can attack humanity during the Lunar War. ”

“Stupid move. ”

I've already seen Brittany and Frank's cars from here.

“Queen Henrietta of Brittany sees the end of her expedition? C. The new Habsburg Republic can never withstand an attack by the Monthly Alliance. Still, the Moon Blind don't attack... Why, they would ask. ”

And I noticed. The Demon Prince is divided again.

It was famous for how magnificent the Demon Kings were on the expedition. One by one, I felt a sense of self-esteem as to why I was a former Demon King.

Queen Henrietta would have ridiculed the Demon Kings. Even though the opportunity to destroy humanity is imminent, they are distracted by their faction's struggle and miss the chance for genius. It was a pathetic story…….

“According to intel, Queen Henrietta was already mustering an army. Perhaps humanity will be completely defeated in Habsburg, and an additional army is in place. ”

The army has been used to invade Frank.

Frank wasn't the only idiot. The local groups quickly formed around the monarchs.

Although the Hundred Elders tried to fight against the army, orders such as the Blue Ceiling Power were served in the imperial city.

‘Brittany is not Jim's enemy. Friend of Frank's. Give the command to Brittany as she wishes, and support her supplies as she wishes. ’

What are you hiding? It was the Emperor of Frank.

It was the moment when Frank's local commanders fell into chaos. Which emperor in the world would make his way to the outside world and order us to provide supplies? But that's what really happened.

Do we have to resist externalities? Or should we obey the commandment? A sudden rumble has broken out among the commanders. It was an incident of thought milk.

In the midst of this chaos, Brittany marches at ease.

If the Roanoke or Imperial troops block the way,

"Here is an order from the Emperor of Frank. ’

‘We are the defenders of this place.... ’

"Shut up! How dare you disobey His Majesty's orders!" ’

Queen Henrietta has laid waste to it.

She was holding a parchment with the name really written on it. Usually, they'd laugh at me for wanting to know where I got that fake order. However, the Empire Army was forced to retreat trembling…….

“They say three fortresses watched the imperial army pass by like a blind man. Even the Fortress Army has been disarmed. ”

He was an emperor who blew up a great fool like the Demon Kings.

The Brittany army passes through the border and fortress without any harm. It was only then that some of the nobles of Frank said, "Well, this is a little bit different, isn't it? 'I thought.

Especially Republican aristocrats. In a parable, King Joseon called in the troops to beat up his officials.

The king has brought us to Brittany, the enemy of the crippled world, to destroy us! ’

Some of the nobles stand up, impatient. Enemies from the Imperial and Neutral factions gathered, including Marshal Montmorensi, Duke of Giz and Enemies of Saint-Andre. They scrambled to muster their forces.

Approximately 15,000 troops in Ashunama were prepared. Brittany is approaching with a surge of turbulence. All the troops that could be gathered in a short time were gathered.

There are about 9,000 Brittanys fighting back. Frank was overwhelmed by his troops. I should commend it as a country that refers to the Empire. The Imperial Army and the Imperial Army fought at military headquarters.

“This is worth a try. That's what Frank would have thought. ”

“Well, maybe we should have just driven Brittany out. ”

Almost everyone thought so.

Except for one person.

* * *

The Royal Army of Brittany was noisy during a council of operations.

“We should wait until Frank's emperor dispatches his legions. ”

“Can you really trust the Emperor? Let's tell the Franks what we've been doing. Surrounding them with blasphemy will scare them away too! ”

“Well, the enemy commander is the enemy of Montmorense. Threats will make you snore. ”

The nobles generally suggested that we wait a little longer. Against 15,000 troops with nine thousand troops was a bit of a challenge. It's a natural tendency.

Queen Henrietta is seated at the table, staring at the meeting. It was around the time when longevity cooperated to some extent. Queen Henrietta said quietly.

“Tomorrow at dawn we will open fire. ”

The nobles are silent, and the old man, Count Collene, speaks for himself.

“Your Grace, the Emperor of Frank has promised me an army. It seems that there is no reason to take risks now that our troops are outnumbered. ”

“The empire army is a great scarecrow. I'm empty inside. ”

The young queen with red hair said boldly.

“There are a lot of veterans, so even though they look great, there are few mounted soldiers. Only three out of 15 thousand. On the other hand, we only have 9,000 mounted men. Gentlemen, you are mistaken. ”

Queen Henrietta opens her four fingers.

“Enemies are no more than us. We are 'more than four times' as many as the enemy. ”

“…… Yes? Your Majesty, what ship? ”

“The nobles of Frank are still hesitant about the Order. The majority of the recruits are now in front of us. That is, it is not the knights of the nobles. If not, fewer mounted, fewer and fewer knights. A hundred, tops. ”

Queen Henrietta smiles.

“On the other hand, we have nine hundred knights. It is overwhelming in terms of quality. This is why Brittany is twice the enemy. ”

The queen folded her two fingers.

“Enemies are still anxious to think that they are rebelling against the order, even though they are gathered. As much as we are reluctant to fight, they are reluctant to fight. By now, the head of the enemy troops would have been divided into the position that they should be pushing the offensive and just trying to draw time. - The enemy is now divided into two sides. Therefore.”

Queen Henrietta folds the other two fingers.

“They have to face us twice as powerful in a two-way situation. This is why we say we have quadruple the advantage of the Empire Army. Gentlemen, we are united and they are divided. ”

The nobles gaze silently at the queen's fist. They are drawn to the queen's strong voice.

“Over time, the forces against the Emperor will become increasingly united. Now is the time for the overwhelming majority of the aristocrats who cannot resist the imperial decree! ”

The queen slapped the table.

“It's time for the enemy to join Montmorense, Giz and Saint-Dre! The heads of the Imperial Court. If we eliminate them, the center of the Imperial Court will be greatly weakened. Gentlemen, the Goddess has prepared a banquet for us! ”

Queen Henrietta laughs.

“Tell the knights. Tomorrow at dawn, the gods prepare for our most glorious victory in Brittany. The enemy will die like a pig without even screaming. ”

* * *

The Empire army was defeated.

This is the basis of the original tactic. Place the infantry in the center and the cavalry on both sides. A bilateral cavalry surrounds the enemy as infantry takes firm control of the center. Queen Henrietta, however, put the vast majority of her cavalry in the middle.

Hundreds of knights and thousands of horsemen swarmed.

The Franks were surprised. In a hurry, two thousand cavalries were first dispatched. With two thousand, the cavalry was almost total. I would expect you to buy me some time.

The battle between the cavalry and the cavalry ends in only one brawl. Queen Henrietta's cavalry has literally shattered Frank's army.

The Franks are in deep shit. As the cavalry fled, a catastrophe struck even the allies behind them...

The Grand Commander Montmorensi strives from the front with over seventy labors, in order to somehow maintain his ranks. But before the line was restored, the blade of the Knight Brittany pierced the chest of the enemy of Montmorense.

As soon as the battle started, the commander was killed. If not, the Franks have fallen prey to the defeat of the cavalry and are in chaos. It wasn't Queen Enrieta who would miss this opportunity.

The Brittany forces have uncovered the centre of the enemy. Frank's army was torn apart, and his left and right sides were crushed....

Combat results.

“The Franks have suffered 5,000 casualties…… while the Brittanys have suffered only four hundred casualties. ”

“Terrible result. ”

I made a bitter smile.

Henrietta de Brittany. It was the monarch who led Laura de Farnese through the whole continent at Dungeon Attack. It will definitely not be an easy opponent.

Across the Black Mountains, where the Dantalian debut took place.

There's a scene where Barbato comes to pay after the battle and teases the captain Zephyr. "A kid who came to the Knights without a sense of style and ruined his troops." It was said that the Knights who had softened up the Demon King Zephyr's troops were the Knights of Brittany.

The Kingdom of Brittany boasts some of the finest knights in the world along with the Kingdom of Tuton.
