Dungeon Defense (WN)

00294 Puppet War

* * *

An ally's headquarters has joined the Farsioram Southwest. With this, our army was victorious.

Brittany has taken from us a fortress with a precious food warehouse. The name of the fortress was very long. It was the Sage Germain-An-Le Fortress. It was troublesome to remember. Among our executives, we call it "military" by our own name.

Seven hundred infantry men and two hundred cavalry guarding the fort. He was quite a strong defender. But when 10,000 Republican troops came, the fort could not hold out for more than two hours. You never would have imagined there would be a great army here. It was a perfect surprise.

The only hope was for Henrietta to send the cavalry... But that's too bad. It was too different when the troops left.

We were the first to lead the Republic of Batavia and left quickly. On the contrary, the Brittany army is pinned down in battle. Two hours wasted. At the time of the battle, he had already committed Enrieta's guilt.

It's a conclusive story, of course. If we had won the battle, Henrietta would have been a boldly victorious master, and on the contrary, we would have been described as individually defeated idiots on the way down. War is like that. The results evaluate everything…….

The fire in Parisian Rooms was commissioned by Baron Bercy.

When I heard there was a massive purge, I felt frustrated. Thankfully, Baron Bercy slipped away from the bloodshed. The baron was the matchmaker who connected Frank's Patriot Front with our army. It was bad luck that he survived. In fact, he did a great job.

Henrietta must be devastated by now.

The Green Rose Knights have lost their top strength and lost even their strength. With this, the Brittany army has dramatically narrowed down its breadth.

Henrietta, you are obsessed with spinning too much. War is deception after all. The Brittany militia took a divergence to reveal their objective at the turn.

On the other hand, we hid this intention all the way to the end. I built a fortress as if it were a long war and fled as if it were aiming for the Parisian room. But the real purpose was military. Henrietta falls into one of the snares.

At noon, Laura and I were in our private barracks.

Allies have won a decisive victory, but the war is not yet over. Brittany's army is intact. We can't be too careless. As soon as we built a new garrison in the south-west of the Parisian room, the two of us entered the mission meeting.

“Now there are only two options left for the Brittany family. ”

“Whether it's an agricultural war in the city or a total retreat. ”

Laura nods. When she got lucky, I kept telling her. We understood each other's operations perfectly.

“The Brittany army will not be pleased with the Agricultural War. Not only were they followers of the rotation, but they were looted from the military for the long haul of agriculture. You might want to retire soon, but.... ”

“The question is, where are you going to pull out? ”

Frank remains heavily influenced by civil war.

The ruling party is strong to the west and south, centered on the Parisian room. The Republicans, the Republicans, have been wiped out.

On the other hand, the north side of Frank is a shrine to the upper manifest Republicans. It is also a dense region of the free cities that declared independence in the civil war.

In other words, from Henrietta's point of view, I want to flee to the west or to the south, which is very friendly to them. If we take the Emperor and the Empress with us, we can collect war taxes fairly, even under the statue of the emperor. It is lawful to secure weapons.

But we are blocking the way to the south and west.

In order for the Brittanys to retreat south-west, we must cross the river as we did last night. Needless to emphasize, Laura and I have no intention of keeping an eye on their doings.

“We should order the Wyvern troops to monitor the arrival of the parish room. ”

“I've already delivered it through Gamygin. The troops rotate by half every three hours to fully monitor the Parisian room. ”

Laura smiled at my answer.

“You are my lord. The perfect deputy is the Lord. ”

“…… even though the role of the lord and lord seems to have changed a lot. ”

Maybe Laura's the only one who treats the Lord as an assistant. Well, it doesn't matter. If only we could win the war.

As soon as the Brittanys make a move, a report will be made through the Wyvern Watch. We will keep the enemy from crossing the river. Of course, as long as Henrietta's not a fool, she'll notice the Wyvern is watching her.

“Queen Brittany will insist on trying Doha, or give up Doha. ”

“Either way, it's in our best interest. ”

Laura nods.

“If the enemy tries to Doha, we can take advantage of the battle. If they have a force powerful enough to ignore the dangers of Doha... ”

“I tried last night to get rid of that unit. Isn't that right, Laura? ”

The Green Rose Knights.

They are abnormally strong. It is common sense that the army weakens when Doha occurs, but the Green Rose Knights can defend against enemy attacks while defending their Doha.

So last night, we destroyed the Green Rose Knights at some risk.

In fact, instead of dispersing troops from the 1st line of defense to the 4th line of defense, we were able to focus all troops on the 1st line of defense. If you had, you wouldn't have broken through the perimeter. But we allowed a breakthrough intentionally.

As a result, the Brittany Army has lost the number of spleens.

It was not just the loss of the highest power. The possibility of jumping under the dodo without any pressure in the current situation was eliminated. However, I think it's still a long time before Henrietta realizes this...

“The Brittany army has no choice but to retreat north. ”

Yes, it is.

Queen Henrietta has no choice but to march on her own as a hostile territory. The food will be replenished by raiding villages and cities in the North.

That was Laura and I, too.

After noon, the commanders assembled in the barracks.

Generally, the Demon Kings had a bright look on their faces. It was a strategic victory. It was strange when my face was dark. Only Pymon, Barcelona, Commander Zephar, and only three of them had such a hard face.

Pymon has long overlooked Laura's strategy. I wanted to say a lot, but I didn't want to because I won, I felt strong.

It's just a headache after a bargain. For a bartender, last night was a nightmare. There is a full atmosphere that says you don't want to fight Agares again. Of course, I was already a fool in my mind, and I was already a dedicated mark player for Agareth.

Captain Zephar, on the other hand, clearly held back his anger.

“Deputy Commander, I haven't heard a word about this operation. I demand an explanation.”

The wrinkles of the old man seemed to explode with anger even now.

We were expecting the first line of defense to be breached. That's why I won the battle, but I wasn't given any information in advance to Captain Zephar, who was in charge of the first line of defense. Commander Zephar struggled desperately to think that if he was breached, the entire army would be in danger.

Laura said in a blatant manner.

“This operation was only achieved when the first line of defense desperately fought. ”

“…… would I have fought less bravely if I had known information in advance? ”

“It's a big difference whether or not an ally has a backup plan. At least there's a difference in mindset. I trust you won't deny it, General Jeffers. ”

Commander Zephyr closed his lips. It's understandable, but there's no way I won't be angry. That was the look on Captain Zephar's face.

“General Zephyr is the best fighter in this battle. ”

Laura claps her hands.

Outside the barracks, a Homo soldier comes in with an armor in his arms. The Demon Kings gaze at the messenger with mysterious eyes. Only Captain Zephyr notices what it is.

“That's ……. ”

“Yes, the strength of the Green Rose Knights. ”

Laura raises her hand, and a soldier approaches and raises his flag.

“On behalf of General Rudolf von Habsburg, I declare that I will reward General Zephar for his greatest work in combat. ”

“ ……. ”

Commander Zephyr's eyes tremble. It was a machine that boasted 700 years of tradition. It was a flag that had never been plundered in its long history.

Ordinary vigor was worth 200 to 500 gold…… but the vigor of the Green Rose Knights was not worth a penny. It would have been a great honor if that machine had taken place in his Democratic City.

Commander Zephyr closes his eyes quietly. I felt like I had a deep thought. I have paid the price for my insult 500 years ago. How can there be no remorse?

“... Thank you. X.O.”

Commander Zephyr rises from his seat with his eyes open. The commander bows with his right hand to his chest. It was virtually the best courtesy for the commander to serve as Lord Barbatos.

Laura nods.

“Honor should be followed in a struggle. But the war is not over yet. Brittany's army is intact. We will continue after a definite victory. ”

The Demon Kings nod. Some were expressing frustration.

What are you hiding? It was cheap again. I purposely smiled and smiled at Bazaar, and then I coughed.

He's such a cute guy. I liked it more and more. I want you to always be pure of yourself.

Laura said as the atmosphere cleared up.

“Tomorrow, we will pillage the vicinity of Parisian rooms. ”

“Huh? We've got plenty of supplies now. Do you need to rob me of my bad impression? ”

Barbatos is in rebellion. It is a clear question. Plunder was routine in this era, but it was better not to do it.

Laura points at me with her eyes.

“General Dantalian will explain that. He's the man in charge of this operation. General Dantalian.”

“Yes.”

I got up from my seat. The gaze of the left gathered.

I straightened my voice and explained calmly.

“Comrade Demon King, the Republicans are at odds in Frank. In other words, Brittany belongs to the Royal Party, and the Battalion with us belongs to the Republicans. ”

The majority of the Demon Kings tilted their heads. What to do with the politics of the human world, those faces. Tsk. I can see why you guys lost the war in the Moon Blind.

I smiled softly.

“Four years ago, there was a mass genocide in Frank, mainstreaming the Brittany army. More than 100,000 Republicans were killed all over the country. In other words, the Republicans of Frank have enormous hatred for the Royal Party. We use that hatred. ”

The Demon Kings still didn't understand.
