Goblin Kingdom

Retreat Battle II

The main armies of the trading nation of Puena are the Pale Bird Knights (Blue Knights) and the mercenaries known as the Miscellaneous Army. It is not usually referred to as the most miscellaneous army, and each of them takes part in the battle in the name of a blood alliance and is paid according to its outcome. Important here was the fact that only the Knights of the Ethereal Birds are being held as regular armies.

"... Captain. That's number fifteen."

Allen sighed, too, at the voice of the weakened Knights.

"I don't mean Flying Swallow, but couldn't you at least hire some better guys?

"It's..."

"Oh, I'm so stupid. Listen to me."

What is at issue is the maintenance of discipline in each blood alliance known as the Miscellaneous Army. The Knights of the Ethereal Birds, who sounded elite in the previous battle, were half-baked. The number of troops was watered down by miscellaneous armies and conscripts to make up for it, and the lead was Allen, who instantly recaptured the area occupied by the Goblins, with the tactic of constantly being served by the Knights of the Ethereal Birds, but was burning his hands in its reign.

If you are a standing army and at the same time an elite Knights of the Ethereal Birds, who carried the pride of the country wholeheartedly, cases such as looting and assault, which rarely happen, come up to him every day. Miscellaneous blood leagues of about a thousand in the big to a hundred in the small are often receptacles for rogues who say adventurers.

At least it was such a perception as Allen.

But as a presbytery, I was going to hire a better kind of blood alliance. Allen's reference to the blood alliance of flying swallows, for example, was of a user-friendly category in the war, if not a personal handover. In addition to the price of the individual, the number is low. If we were to occupy the territory and entrust it with its security, we would need a corresponding number.

To seek the power of Allen's desired blood alliance, that's what the country had to build up enough money to tilt.

The proud bloodline (Leonheart) and the bloodline alliance that controls everything like the Red King (Red King). Flying to Freedom (Elks) with similar family ties, each blood ally says is elite, good Flying Swallow blood alliance (Swallowclan).

Famous blood alliances had their own reasons, but in the sense of discipline and control, they were all good beings that could be considered best for each. But naturally, not all of them. On the contrary, their discipline is so rare and valuable.

"The Maiden of War Sword (Valkyria) doesn't seem to be moving from the east."

Allen took over the position of captain of the regiment to the deputy officer who told him in trouble, taking a deep sigh.

"Why don't we start with something else?"

Ever since he became head of the regiment, Allen did not lack the daily effort to make himself worthy of the head of the regiment without tapping lightly, as before. Trust from the rest of the group gathers naturally in Allen, who has yet to give up hope and move forward.

However, the answer was no when it came to whether it would lead to confidence from blood allies. What the hired blood allies want is a definite reward and a guarantee of survival. Even though I said the Knights Commander, the flow of funds was not to come true in Allen, who is gripped by the Presbyterian House.

"Captain Allen!

Allen turns a sharp glance at the decree jumping into the office.

"Report! Kushins and the Red King collide at the Kurditian. Reinforcements in the Kingdom of Germion have led to the victory of the Red King!

"... what happened to the Kushinites? They wiped it out?

"It's with the whole castle caged in the Cruditian!

With his gaze down, Allen bites his inner teeth into the report.

I can't stop the momentum of the Red King. It becomes a pressure on the Presbyterian House and leads to the unwanted marriage of Allen's beloved Queen Laksha. He also had avenues hostile to the Red King, but now he is an ally, albeit bent. Besides, his own temper did not like acts like slashing enemies from behind, such as betraying and fighting allies.

But as it is, the marriage between Queen Laksha and Grand Duke Brandika cannot be prevented.

"Looks like the Red King has started moving west again. Plus it's unconfirmed, but there have been reports that the Goblins have taken part in that fight. I thought you probably went after Goblin."

Ask Allen, with his gaze down, how sorry his deputy seems to be.

"How do you do?

"Give me a second to think about it"

I beg your pardon, and after saluting, the deputy and the decree return the heel.

"Isas...... laugh at me. I knew you'd replace me..."

Deep distress stretches over his shoulders.

Allen just wants to save one woman she loves. But that's amazingly far and hard. In the end, no conclusions are drawn, and Allen will be troubled in the office until late at night.

By the time my sister and sister's twin moon (Elvey Navy) start showing their faces in the sky, Allen, who had fallen asleep at some point, awakens only consciousness with some indication. I explored the signs as I prepared to unleash the long sword I drew at hand at any time.

At once Allen pulls out his long sword and releases the sword by hanging it around his throat as soon as the sign approaches between Allen's swords.

"Huh...!?

Long sword stopped on the brink. But at the same time, Allen's throat had a long sword. Allen glances sharply at her opponent.

"You, the Red King."

"A messenger."

A female warrior of the Soil Fairy Clan (Gnome) dressed in black tells her without expression.

"You think he's a messenger?

Allen, the best sword keeper in the country, and the female warrior in front of him was an enemy that had to be easy.

"If I want to save your princess, I'll take the goblin."

"What?"

The Red King is after marriage to Queen Laksha. Allen is puzzled by advice from a hateful enemy.

"Not a single rock with a red king. We are wary that the Alliance Lord's power will be too great."

"That's you guys?

Not answering Allen's question, Salle says, too.

"The border area is the entrance to the western realm. If you stay here first, the Red King won't be able to grow any more."

……

Salle laughs with her nose, staring silently at Allen.

"It's up to you. I just left a message."

"Wait!"

There is no way to answer Allen's call, and Sale disappears soon into darkness.

The next day Allen gathered what was the Lord of the Deputy and the Knights to communicate his future policy.

"Let the army go north and discuss goblins"

You just have to expand the realm unbeatable by the Red King and make the country unshakeable on its own. That way, come on, you won't be able to cut out marriage with the Red King, and most importantly, if you make the country huge, Allen's influence will increase that much. I can save Queen Laksha without being confused by the words of the Presbyterian House.

Last night's woman took action and took the lead before anything else.

"Beat the goblins at full speed, ahead of the Blood Alliance armies"

"I will be ready to go out in no time!

To Allen, who nodded, the preaching returned his heel.

◆ ◇ ◆

The king of Goblin read the distance from the border area to the west area as six days in the foot of Goblin, and ten days in the army. But I've never experienced anything like traveling with even women and children with weak ankles.

Goblin females can be described as healthy legs compared to humans. It would be possible to run through the night if only the itinerary, or even the goblins, which did not proceed as late as possible, but human beings also needed rest.

In a nutshell, the outlook was sweet.

"Doesn't sound like you're in a good mood?

"Am I looking so grumpy?

To the words of Zaurosh, the king of Goblin opened his mouth as he saw a line that did not proceed.

"Yeah, well, at least the other goblins don't seem to come close because they're terrified of the king's intrigue."

"Really...... so, what are the requirements?

Exhale deeply and turn your neck, which became stiff when you untied the arms you were putting together.

"... they say the Cruditian flag color is not good"

"Right."

Regardless of the time difference, the Kingdom of Germion side is gradually transporting its siege weapons when it surrounds the city. If so, the problem is the troops in pursuit. The Red King, who pushed the Kushins against the kingdom of Germion, is slowly but steadily approaching with his attitude.

And Puena, a trading nation, had also marched large armies with prestige, expanding its territory from the south. The question was which one would be the other.

"I haven't been able to grasp the exact position of the Red King and Puena. But if you think only of distance, it's Puena who comes first."

"Sure, it was the Knights of the Ethereal Birds"

I had only the impression that it was a country that possessed the Holy Sword, but it must be a mighty enemy because it can still send that mighty horseback riding squad. It's only reckless to fight that mighty army with human non-combatants. I'm setting up a trap to buy time, but it's not something I know how long I'll keep.

"It's only a prediction, but we'll be engaged in about five days"

"On what grounds?

"It's a simple calculation. It's a natural answer when you compare the speed of this march to the general speed of the opponent."

Enemy speeds that can be calculated because they are Zaurosh with extensive experience. Neither did the king of Goblin think he could escape, but the look on the face of the king of Goblin is bitter in anticipation of contact unexpectedly and quickly.

Even if you fought once and retreated, how can you fight the Goblins twice or three times? The suffering to be pursued was what made the king of Goblin himself experience in the Dark Forest Age, but neither did the king himself think that he would change his offensive post and achieve it in this way.

"That's painful."

You can't abandon the people. Then there is no point in bringing it this far, and it will affect future governance. It's the ultimate in foolishness, such as building your own rebels.

That said, even if the Goblins take on their enemies by letting only the inhabitants go first, there would be a lot of damage to the inhabitants. The trekking region of the Warcraft continues, and not even Gi Gee, who leads the Warcraft Army, obeys all the Warcraft.

"You won't have to make it as hasty as possible. We will also turn to the side carrying the load."

I'll take care of the escort.

Order the adventurer to take charge of the load of the inhabitants, or let the women and children carry on the journey. Behind the feeling of rush starting with the king of Goblin, the distance traveled did not grow, and at last we saw earthsmoke rise across the southern horizon.

The king of Goblin turns to his belly, saying that he has no choice but to make fun of the fact that he has come this far.

"We're going to have an interception!

The life of the king of goblins gathers the fast legged goblins, and the operation is explained.

Simply put, it was a strike-off operation that took advantage of the speed of the legs and the darkness of the night. Stop the enemy's army's legs and withdraw immediately if it serves its purpose. By repeating it, it was a formula to buy time.
