The advance has begun.

─ Laa Listi, Triy Protete…….

─ Civil Bremea, Greece…….

The sound of the priest's song resonates over the soldiers' heads.

The army also participated quite a lot. There was no saint-girl figure, but many priests and priests sang the holy song as they performed the melody. The fingers climb up to the top with a quantifier spell, as if coming down from the sky like sunlight.

With the harmony, 60,000 troops marched. Jeremy comes out side by side and says,

“Dadall... I mean, isn't the priest going to pick a song? ”

“I'm sorry, but I'm a huge fan of music. ”

I pouted my lips.

In fact, the most useful part of the priesthood job in the military was here. The holy monastery greatly encouraged the sick. Moreover, he helped keep the soldiers from running wild, and greatly reduced the incidents that would occur in an army such as looting or rioting.

Well, I'm marching around in the sun, and I hear the chorus at the top. Soldiers deserve to feel that God has blessed us. Maybe there's less mental illness, like PTSD.

“Heh. It's a lie that children resemble their parents. ”

“Huh?"

“Daisy. She sings really well. It's like being summoned by a spirit. ”

Huh. Was the warrior singing well in the game?

“…… when I was there, I never sang a song like that. ”

“Of course. I want to sing in front of a priest. ”

“Have you seen the way this fluffy harlot ridicules her tongue? ”

“Fun.”

Jeremy laughs. I have no choice but to growl. I was the one who enjoyed the Pelagit in the midst of the top opera singers on the continent. Seriously, I was a baker when it came to art.

Jeremy points his thumb behind you.

“By the way, what are they for? ”

“Ah. A binder? ”

Our army carried a hundred wagons close. The cart was loaded with pre-assembled wooden paddles. I ordered the peasants to make this, which was my secret weapon.

“I think there are two things Henrietta can do. The first one is, um, It's hardly a trick, but it's really spinning. At that time, if an ally overwhelms us with an overwhelming force, that's it. But... Second, the emperor might have been friendly. ”

“The emperor of Frank? ”

I nodded.

“We purposely aimed at 'Caesar's Fellowship,' not at emperor's cause. The emperor is an innocent defendant, for that matter. What if the Emperor is in the enemy's army? ”

“Aha. This is going to have an impact on fraud. ”

“It's the only way. ”

What worries me is that the emperor himself will be in the speech.

In this world, it is customary to speak on behalf of one person in each faction when a large army confronts one another. The speech can be summarized in just three words. Surrender. No. Then die.

The Knight's power seems to be more powerful than I imagined, so there seems to be a naturally knightly process even at war. It's also effective at boosting friendly morale and beating up enemy morale. At this point, if Emperor Frank comes out as the spokesperson for the speech, we will be in a lot of trouble…….

“However, the emperor will take command. ”

It is hard to think that Emperor Henri III, who has only shown his incompetence, has military talent. In other words, there is one thing the emperor cares about. You can demoralize our troops in speeches, but you will not be able to conduct them in a full-scale battle.

“Only the emperor comes out. That should confirm Henrietta de Brittany's intentions. If it does, it wants a spin, but it wants a political victory. But if it doesn't come out.... ”

I muttered, blurring my words.

“Indeed, political and diplomatic means are purely aimed at extinction without ever mobilizing. I packed a bunch of binders just in case. ”

Our army is St. Denis, in the vicinity of Parish Orum. (Denis) I arrived in the plains. That's where the Brittany-Emperor's allies set up their command. My guess is that the enemy has less than 30,000 troops.

Reconnaissance and reconnaissance revealed that the emperor did not come to the enemy. There was nowhere to point to the emperor, Frank. The general's flag on behalf of the Emperor was a flare.

“Are you after the extermination war, my queen? ”

I stared at the enemy camp beyond the plain.

There were a few nobles who were secretly cooperating with us in the enemy camp, and thanks to that, we were able to understand their forces fairly accurately. Perhaps the informant on the other side was hiding from his allies.

We immediately opened up our military physicians with the information we gathered.

Conflicting nobles and generals gathered outside, including Duc Henri de Giz, our general commander, members of the 13 Committee of the Republic of Batavia's commander, and commanders of the mercenaries hired by the Dwarf Tribe.

“Clearly. The Queen of Brittany is after the cavalry. ”

Deputy Commander Anna The Comb said: She is a half-elf, half-breed, positioned to the top of the Republic. He was also a member of the same Liberation Alliance as me.

“Friends are outnumbered in the cavalry forces. Specifically, the knight's power is threatening. As long as the enemy wants the Cavalry, they don't think it needs to be a good fit. ”

Anna says she's growing green hair, rarely seen in human society. She's as beautiful as a half-elf, and even now, some nobles are staring at her neck and hair with a slightly dazed gaze.

“I agree. I just tasted bitter in Brittany's cavalry. ”

Commander Henry de Giz smiles bitterly. This man was a casual peacock in his forties, with an impressive growing beard. You have suffered defeat by the Brittany military in the past battle.

“It would have been difficult if the King had been here. As Priestess Jean Bole pointed out, the Queen of Brittany seems genuinely trying to destroy us. ”

“Yes, I would rate it reckless. You seem overconfident. ”

“But I also have the skills to support that confidence. ”

Duke Giz stroked his beard and said, Carelessness is forbidden. There was an atmosphere like that.

Word on the street is that the Franks were the only ones to retreat safely after they defeated the Stragglers. He is not a genius, but he is never incompetent. As your general commander, you're welcome to say a solid hello.

“The cavalry must be stationed behind the infantry.... ”

“It is important that there is no gap between the Lancers. ”

The generals were free, but the meeting did not lose the thief.

As expected, the Republicans' command of Anna and the nobles' command of the Duke of Giz was divided. But there was also a part of my prediction that made me feel good. There were surprisingly few skirmishes among the commanders.

Duke Giz may be second in rank compared to Henrietta. However, it was definitely the first class as a nobleman. During the meeting, some aggressive mercenary commanders and nobles raised their voices.

“Guys, what are you talking about? We're 60,000, and we need only a few. I've led three times as many men, and I can't stand the fear of a girl! Commander! Leave the group to the warden. I'll arrest the girl and make her pay. ”

And I assure you, Duke Giz spoke calmly.

“You are truly brave! But we will continue to suspend the cavalry. The cavalry is not the only way to demonstrate a man's courage. You don't have to lead the battle the way the queen wants you to. ”

Duke Giz was able to arbitrate with his commanders to show that he had never won the duc's title in a card game.

“Our army will employ an operation designed by Priest Jean-Bolet. ”

Duke Giz insists. I bow politely.

My plan is surprisingly simple. Roll the donkey for a few days and place the hard-working wooden bookshelves in front of you like a fence. Depending on the wooden book made like this, it is the placement of the Lancer.

‘I borrowed Captain Zephyr's idea. ’

I smiled inside.

In the Battle of Austerlitz, Captain Zephar excellently defended the Knights' charge with crutches and pegs. It may not be possible to show a mysterious command like Captain Zephyr, but such a trick was only possible when the Demon King was moving monsters erratically - it was easy to use the wooden paddle.

When massively positioned in front of you, the cavalry charge will naturally reduce its effectiveness. Queen Henrietta hopes the cavalry will lose its power. Put a spear in front of the slowed horsemen.

Originally, a small number of troops defend against a large number of troops. This time it's the opposite. We, with an absolute majority of troops, stand firm in our defense.

“The queen's cavalry and knights will lose strength over our shields. When they are exhausted, they engage in a full attack. ”

“Hmm."

In my operational description, Duke Giz nods. We're already done discussing this, but we've been gesturing on purpose to let everyone know.

In other words, tactics designed only to combat the extreme cavalry... …. It was made purely for Queen Henrietta.

Some generals complained about a cowardly operation, but Duke Giz, the general commander, experienced the fear of the Brittany cavalry not long ago. Duke Giz never tolerated such a swift battle.

I am relieved. Your command is not incompetent. The element of defeat is gone.

Even the plains of Saint Denis, which were used as battlefields, were in our favor. The river flows on the left side of the plains. On the right, the forest is scavenged.

The river is not suitable for mounted troops to charge because the ground is retreating. Not to mention the forest. In other words, Saint Denis Plain is quite disadvantageous to watch a battle on horseback. There are no favourable elements for Brittany.

Duke Giz exclaims curiously.

“Not only did our troops outrank our troops, but they also outrank our battlefields and tactics. The commanders want us to fight with confidence that we will win! ”

The next morning, the Brittany army began to move. Saint-Denis' sun was rising.
