Episode 71 Battle of the Berte River 18 - Slanter

It was Gallam who cut off the front line and slashed it into a heavily armed infantry unit, but then gave way to his fellow fighters and took a step back.

That is to see the state of war.

On the frontline, the movement of enemies in front of you and around you can't help but be distracted.Then we cannot see the overall state of the war.

If only the greatest brave man on the plains had been.But now Gallam is the great general of the land of Eldore.That awareness had kept Gallam in a retreated position, one step ahead of anyone else.

And for that reason, Gallam immediately realized that Zugs had launched a rush from the front of the Romanian National Army on his right hand side.

Perhaps a final blow for the Romanian National Army heavy infantry unit.

Then I should go to my next goal.

And Gallam thought, "Follow me!"He barked, slashing into his left hand enemy more than he had ever done before.

For Zoan, who lives in the Sorbian plains, Gallam is the great chief of the clan and is now the great general of Eldore.The Gallam is where they should be heading.Every Zouan warrior chases Gallam's back, even though he can't hear his voice.

Gallam finally broke through the heavily armed infantry unit after swinging the two-bladed wooden sword again like a storm and chopping off the Romanian National Army heavily armed infantry.

Then, before that, there was the tank unit that was holding back.

Gallam quickly put two swords into his waist sheath and ran away with four legs.

"Let's go! Don't be late!

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"A new enemy?! Where did it come from?!

Gallam stormed the right side of the heavily armed infantry unit, and the general of the tank unit, who had been holding back after a while, shouted surprise at the status quo.

Although they were allies, they were watching the enemy's movements on the other side of the heavy infantry unit, which numbered more than 3,000 troops.I didn't notice it for a while when the Galams stormed the right side of the heavy infantry unit.Initially, I even wondered what my allies were noisy about.

The General was finally able to grasp the status quo after receiving word that the beacon sent from the heavily armed infantry unit was being attacked from the right side of the sidelines by a large army of Zouans who appeared from somewhere.

"This is no good!Let's get the tanks out of here and head for backup!

That said, the general tried to move his tank.

However, on the verge of that, a great fury arose from the front.

When I looked at what happened, the Zoans in front of me were also attacking with anger.

The general was lost in this matter.

All tanks are now pointing to the left, as they were circling the left side of an allied heavy infantry unit and trying to take the back of the enemy in front of them.We had to turn the tank around here to reach the enemy attacking the right side of our heavy infantry unit.

Should we stay behind the frontal enemy?Or should we turn around over time and defeat the enemy attacking the right side of our heavy infantry unit?

He was a general who wondered which was the best, but he didn't have time to think about it.

Zouans, who were heading into the Allied Heavy Infantry unit from the right side of the horizon to the center, changed course and approached us.

The general was impatient when the army of Zoans, led by the black-haired Zoans, kicked out the heavily armed infantry.

"Wait, it's an enemy raid!Get the tank out of here now!

The General hurried to give the order to the tank unit.

However, this instruction will cause extra confusion.

Neither of them was explicitly told to deal with either enemy, so the tanks that tried to bypass the front Allied Heavy Infantry unit and turn behind Zoog and the tanks that tried to turn right to go to the newly attacking Gallam collided, blocking each other's paths as originally planned.

If this happens, a tank that cannot retreat will no longer be able to move at all.

And a tank that can't move is no longer just a stand.

Gallam, when a blackwind strikes, rushes through stuck tanks, sometimes sneaking under the belly of a horse, aiming for the center of the front row of tank units.

There was a tank with a general in it.

"What are you doing!Get out of the way!Hurry! "

He was a general who shouted at an allied tank blocking his eyes, but noticed that the sun that was pouring down on him was shading.Looking back quickly, the general finds the black-haired Zoan-Garam flying in the sky with the sun behind him.

"Take that neck!

Gallam's two sabres were shaken to intersect.

The general of the tank fleet's neck was thrown with his mouth wide open and a silent scream raised.

"General Eldore, Faggull Garguz Garam!We've defeated the enemy generals!

Zouan warriors excite Gallam's winners.Then he jumped one after the other onto the stuck tanks.

The Romanian National Guard on the tank also fights back with bows and arrows and spears.This counter-attack resulted in many casualties among the Zouan warriors.

However, the limited scaffolding of tanks does not prevent Zoan warriors from flying in from all directions.Quickly pushed down, dragged down, and rattled with a wooden sword.

The infantry, who would have fought with the tank, was in a state of panic as the lords and knights on the tank who were their commanders were being attacked one after the other.With a loud scream, they throw away their spears and shields and even throw away their helmets to start running away.

The tank unit was destroyed in an instant.

"No chase! Assemble now!

Gallam will stop the Zouan warriors who tried to hunt down the destroying Romanian army.As Sishulu turned his instructions into the sound of a drum, Zug, who had kicked the heavily loaded infantry unit, ran there.

"Hey, it's Garam!

Zug laughs hard in front of Gallam who looks at the call.

"I beat the enemy generals first!

Gallam quickly stepped up to his throat and said, "Of course you were closer!He swallows the curse.Regardless of what to say back, Zug turns around and looks at Gallam with his teeth peeling out.

"Then I'll go behind the enemy!Good luck, General!

That said, he took the warriors he led and ran away with four legs.

Garam laughs next to Sishur, who is furious with his uncle's violent remarks.

Oh, my God, it looks like him.

For some reason, Gallam shouted at Zoog's back, distant away.

"Please, Angry Claws!

I don't know if I couldn't hear you or if I ignored you, but as I turned my eyes around from the back of Zoog, the Zouan warriors who heard the drums continued to gather.

Garam barks to the warriors waiting for his instructions.

"Next, the enemy's Central Command!

Gallam points the tip of the razor blade at the enemy's central headquarters.

"The enemy is exposing its soft belly to us!Then stick your fangs in there!Eat that belly!

Zoan's warriors howled with excitement and fighting spirit.

And Gallam gives the command.

"Now is the time to show our Zoan Medal!--- Assault!! "

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

"The enemy is twice as large as ours.We don't have a chance of winning. "

In an army meeting that preceded a meeting on the Berte River, the blue horse said so first.

It was Gallam and Eldore who surrounded the roundtable with a wide array of tokens arranged in the battlefield, along with the blue horses.

Fortunately, none of our companions, who have experienced many fierce battles so far, wield a spiritual theory that twice as many enemies as they would fear.

No, there was an exception.Just one person moves his fat tail and says, "Enough by myself!There were people who spoke Australian, but that was the usual thing, so everybody politely silenced.

Instead, Gallam asked the pale horse on behalf of everyone.

"So, how do we fight?

It is a pale tone that confirms the facts rather than recklessness.

A pale horse, who has been an oligarchy but has defeated many enemies many times by many tactics and tactics to date, challenged the Romanian National Army to double their strength.Naturally, it cannot be helpless.

It was only with such trust.

Prior to the pale horse who tried to answer, Shem opened his mouth with a good attitude.

"Don't you know that, Toothless?

And Gallam looked at me and he said, "Of course!"I was always chest tight.

"Soma said, 'Do it decently.'I mean, you just have to do it the wrong way!And everyone knows the bad character of you under my umbilicus.Such a soma can't be fought properly. "

There was a moment of silence.

Of course I know that.On top of that, I asked about the improper method, but it was not an answer.

It's nothing.I just wanted to insist that I know you, the blue horse under my umbrella.

Gallam, who was so painfully aware of his sister's behavior that he didn't need to follow suit here, silenced Shem as he did the other day.

And again, I asked the pale horse with my eyes.

With a bitter smile on his chem, who was still good at climaxing, the blue horse turned his attention to the battlefield map on the round table when he made a serious appearance.

"I'm sure we're all the best.But I'm not thinking of fighting on my own. "

In front of him, the pale horse showed Erdoğan National Army tokens placed on a round-table battlefield map.

"So, first of all, we get into the battlefield ahead of the Romanian National Army, and we line up like this."

Erdoğan National Army tokens were a steady stone formation with a main force in the center and troops assigned to each wing to defend its sides.

"In the middle there are about 3,000 heavily armed infantry of human species led by Cetius.Garam and Zouan's warriors are about 3,000 behind it.On the left side of the river is the Black Wall, led by Admirus, and two thousand Dwarves of Dvarin and Norzuli.And on the right flank, Zouan warriors led by Zoog are about 1,500. "

The pale horse then pointed to a piece representing the Romanian National Army opposite the Erdoğan National Army piece.

"In contrast, the Romanian National Army, which has twice as many troops as we do, will think that the victory will be firm if we place twice as many troops in the center and on both wings."

It is a battle based on a promise of a meeting.Regardless of the disadvantage, it is hard to imagine that the Romanian National Army, which is overwhelming us from the viewpoint of soldiers alone, would dare to break the promise and split up the soldiers and turn around our backs.In that case, it is reasonable to expect that they will come in a tough formation that simply knocks down twice as many soldiers from the front.

The pale horse continued to speak until everyone understood the situation on the battlefield map.

"It's hard to win from enemies that are twice as strong in both the center and the wings."

It's a fact I never had to say again, but there's still a lot of tension when it comes to words.

The pale horse speaks forcefully to wipe out the unpleasant air.

"That's why we limit ourselves to competing."

That said, the pale horse first pointed to the right-wing pawn of the Romanian National Army on the river side.

"The trouble is a cavalry called the Wolverines.If you can't get rid of the battlefield with horseback riding maneuvers, you can't.So I can push this pack of wolves to the river side to contain the movement. "

The pale horse glanced at Admirus, one of the people surrounding the round table.

"Admiral has already provoked Piata and promised a confrontation.If this is Admiral's "black wall" on the left flank of the river, Piata must respond.If the "Black Wall" stops the Hundred-Wolves, the Hundred-Wolves, sandwiched between the river and the allies, can seal their feet. "

The pale horse looks up from the battlefield diagram and sees Admirus, Dvarin, and Norzuli in turn.

"There's no need to defeat Piata.All you have to do is defend yourself and seal the movement.We have prepared a plan for this, as well as preparations.Can I leave it to you?

Each of the three named men tapped his chest, stroked his beard, or shooke it to show understanding.

The pale horse nodded back with trust, and continued to speak even more.

"And it's the right wing that's going to fight."

Expectations and excitement bothered me.

Gathering everyone's gaze, the pale horse pushes a token representing the Zug and Zouan warriors on the right wing of the Eldore National Army all the way to the left wing of the enemy.

"Zug storms along with the start of the war and crushes the left wing of the enemy at once.Ask the Black Elf Bow Cavalry for that exposé.Eliminate scattered units of archers and light infantry that will be deployed in front of the enemy's left wing. "

The pale horse looks up at Zoog.

"This is a battle against time.I want my enemies kicked out in a quick attack. "

And Zoog chants.

"Hey, wait a minute, Your Majesty.No matter how strong I am as Zoan's best warrior, it would be a bit troublesome if he told me to kick more than twice as many enemies in a quick attack. "

It's a peculiar attitude zooge that eats people, but it's never an overconfident fool.Behind his appearance and attitude, he is a born warrior and general who can calmly discern the power of his boyfriend.

No matter how many brave and courageous fighters Zouan has, it's not like he usually responds by asking me to kick a fully armed heavily armed infantry out of the front.

Others also had an atmosphere that echoed the concerns expressed by Zug.

"I understand the difficulty of kicking twice as many of our enemies right away."

However, the pale horse who wanted me to kick it off quickly also gave his consent.

As everyone wondered what was going on, the pale horse suddenly smiled like a child revealing a clear prank.

"So here's what I'm gonna do."

The pale horse pushed Gallam and Zoan's warrior tokens all the way behind the main center.

"Gallam and all the Zouan warriors who stood back in the middle will also be thrown into the right wing!

Those who were there were surprised.

The right-wing battlefield, dominated by the Romanian National Army by the number of Tokens, turned into the Eldore National Army.

"It's only the central force that decides the battle.Watch your sides, but there's only a limited number of soldiers there.Initially, if we had only 1,500 warriors, the Romanian National Army would have put 3,000 in front of our right wing, at most. "

When it comes to meeting, it is the battle between the main central battalion that determines the female and male.It is only the role of the wings to protect the sides of the central headquarters.There's no way we're going to waste a lot of our precious Central Command soldiers deciding to fight such a force.

But the blue horse does it.

"We will put all the Zouan warriors there.Together with 3,000 galams to 1,500 led by Zug, it will exceed the number of enemies!Moreover, the psychological effects of Gallam's troops, which were not expected to come, are enormous.The impact it actually has will overwhelm the enemy by far exceeding the real number of Zouan warriors!

The pale horse shook his right fist in front of everyone watching in surprise.Then swing your fist down with the next word.

"With it, I will destroy the enemy in front of the right wing at once!

With the swinging fist of the pale horse, the Romanian National Army pieces scattered with a fierce sound.

From among all of us, there is a rumbling.

"Wait a minute, Your Majesty!

Among them was Cetius, who shouted like a scream.Cetius secretly lost the token from behind, pointing to the few remaining Central Corps tokens.

"This is inferior to the number of soldiers.Focusing even a few troops on the right flank will make the center thin!Then you can't withstand the pressure of your enemies and will collapse in an instant!

Cetius is right, on the battlefield map, the difference in the strength of the Central Command is historical.Instead of doubling the difference in combat power, there were more than three times more openings.Now, no matter how many zooges win on the right flank, the Central Corps will be crushed before it does.

For a right-wing victory, it makes no sense for the center, the main unit, to lose.

"Yeah, that's right."

However, the pale horse quickly accepted the objection.

Everyone is confused by the unexpected reaction of the pale horse.But it doesn't end there.In addition, the next speech by the pale horse will make you lose your temper.

"So I won't fight."

The pale horse shouted.

For a while, no one could understand the meaning of the blue horse's words.

Don't fight, don't fight, don't defend.

It's impossible not to fight with your enemies in front of you.

Unable to measure the true meaning of the pale horse's words, everyone is confused.

In front of them, the pale horse pushed the Romanian National Army token in the battlefield diagram a long way forward.Then the pale horse turned to the other side of the round table, and this time he put his hand on a chunk of Eldor National Army pieces.

"Raise the momentum of the soldiers and show them how to fight.But I won't let them advance.Yeah, but if we don't move at all, we're gonna find out if we don't want to fight.If that happens, there is a danger that the protruding galams will be turned around on their sides and back, and vice versa, they will be surrounded. "

With that said, the pale horse pushes the pieces of the Erdoğan National Army Central Corps forward slightly.

"So take your time and move forward.We're willing to fight.Your enemies are us in the front.But in fact, I'm going to delay the march, buy some time, and stop fighting. "

The pale horse, pushed slightly forward from its initial position, points again to the right-wing pawn.

"And in the meantime, win with the right wing.After that, Gallam immediately attacked the sides of the enemy's central headquarters.Likewise, Zug turns behind the enemy's central headquarters and blocks the enemy's exit.Siege and annihilate enemies!

The words of the pale horse shook the eardrums and hearts of those who were there, as if they had been directly hit by the lightning.

Then, as if to close the end, the blue horse tells strictly.

"Creates a local number of advantages that will lead to a total victory.That's my plan. "

The scene calmed down.

Everyone had lost their words and was staring into the battlefield map spread out on the round table in front of them, as if it were all eyes or hearts.

On the battlefield map, a token representing the Erdoğan National Army depicts a formation that no one has ever seen or heard of.

A left-wing unit that has not moved at all from its initial position.

The Central Command was released a short while ago.

And the right-wing unit protruded forward.

"What is this, diagonally...?

I don't know who leaked the word.

However, it was an idea shared by all those who were present.

A token representing the Eldore National Army was placed diagonally across the battlefield.

◆ ◇ ◆ ◇ ◆

The tactics of the pale horse in the battle of the Berte River have been named several times in future generations based on the word "diagonal" brought to Piata by the sight of Harpyan Lulu from above.

And there are two great theories about what Lulu is supposed to have witnessed, so that his name can also be divided into two.

One is the theory that Lulu saw a formation of the Erdoğan National Army.As the pale horse showed on the board in the previous military council, even in the actual battle, Lulu saw the central headquarters of the Erdoğan National Army and the units of both wings positioned diagonally.

Another theory is that he saw General Garam of Erdoğan running diagonally to the right wing from behind the center.

Therefore, those who take the former theory refer to this tactic as the "slant" or "slant", while those who take the latter theory refer to it as the "slant".

It is the new tactic of Thomas Kisaki, the Son of Destruction, said to have revolutionized ancient military history.
