I am the Monarch

< Chapter 2 First Battle >

------------------------------------

"Oops."

Roan shouts in desperate thought, but soon he shuts up in a rotten tone.

Dawson didn't look good.

‘I disagreed with the opinion of the deputy on the new soldier. ’

If he was an assistant to a rough personality, his fist might have already flown.

But we can't back down like this.

‘If you leave the Goblin troops like this, the villagers of this village will be slaughtered. ’

A group of Goblins, who had destroyed the Roses in their past lives as an ambush, left the canyon and stormed the area, including Eil Village, to massacre its inhabitants.

‘It will be a difficult battle, but we must destroy the Goblin troops. ’

Roan bites his lower lip.

Dawson clears his throat with an unpleasant expression.

“Hehe. What do you know about the new soldier...?" Tsk. ”

The sound of kicking your tongue.

But Roan has no intention of standing here.

He looks up at Gail and lowers his head slightly.

“Commander, do you know what the Battle of Cali in May 176, the Battle of Mendoff in August 183, the Operation Roman Oppression in October 185 and the Battle of Fiol in March 191 have in common? ”

as many battles as 30 years ago, as few as 10 years ago.

Gail frowns.

"Common ground"?

Mason then laughed awkwardly and trembled.

“Hahaha. What is this guy talking about? What about the Mendoff defense? What about the Roman suppression? You picked up something weird and now you're talking nonsense."

That's what Dawson said.

“I've never heard of such a battle. Hmmm.”

Still a grumpy face.

I open my eyes as if to stop this nonsense right now.

On the other hand, Roan's expression was overwhelming.

‘It's normal not to remember battles unrelated to our kingdom. ’

The same was true of myself.

But seven years from now, the advent of Ian Philips, a brilliant, unprofitable strategist, boomed strategy and tactics.

Longevity and soldiers were enthusiastic about the big and small battles and war studies in history, and Ronan was also focused on studying war history for a while.

Thanks to this, I can remember all the battles I just listed.

Fortunately, unlike Mason and Dawson, Gail knew about the battles that Roan was talking about.

‘The Battle of Cali was a battle between our Reich and the Estonian Empire, and the Battle of Mendof between the Estonian and Byron Empires, and the Battle of Roman Oppression was a battle between our Reich and monsters, the Battle of Fiol. ’

Four battles that are completely different in nature and timing.

"These battles have something in common? ’

Roan chuckles in a small voice as Gail is unable to catch the ribs easily.

“Carnage.”

Gail's eyes widen in an instant.

“Ah!”

Low elasticity.

He nods slightly excitedly.

“Yes. Carnage. It was a massacre.”

The four battles were all different in age, timing, and character, but there is a record of slaughtering the vanquished side of the battle.

“In the Battle of Cali, the Estonian Empire massacred our people of Castle Cali. In the defense of Mendoff, Byron's Imperial Army abandoned Mendof Castle and the Estonian Empire massacred the people of Mendof. ”

“That's right. The Roman Resistance had a massive massacre in the eastern region that participated in the peasant uprising. When the Battle of Fiol was defeated, a group of monsters raided seven villages, seven large and small, surrounding Fiol. ”

The conversation fits well.

Gail stares at Eile Canyon coldly.

“Then, what do you think.... No way?"

Roan nods slowly.

“Yes. If we leave the Goblin army like this, the villagers of this village will be slaughtered." ”

“Hmm.”

Just looking at the four battles listed earlier, it was possible.

Gail looks at Roan with a somewhat surprised look.

‘I searched the canyon by myself and memorized battles that Deputy Dawson did not know. What an amazing kid. ’

On the other hand, Dawson's expression, which was watching the situation, was distorted.

‘Dammit, I've been eating knife food for 10 years and I don't even know what I know. Who the hell is this guy? ’

A soldier who's been eating knife food for 20 years.

That was Roan.

Of course, there was no way Dawson could have known that.

Gail wanted to keep testing the new recruit.

“Then should we defeat the Goblin troops and move on? ”

“Yes, that will keep the people of Aile safe. ”

“But they built a camp in the mountains. It's not an easy situation to deal with. ”

I mean, if there's a good way, give it to me.

Roan smiles faintly at Gail.

“Do you remember the battle of Feb. 200? ”

The battle of Pelant was last year.

Gail nods, as well as Dawson and Mason.

But only one of them read Roan's mind, Gail.

Gail claps her hands, smiling brightly.

“Ah! The Fountain! ”

Roan nods slowly.

“Yes, it is. ”

The battle between the Kingdom of Pelant and the Kingdom of Byron was fought at Pelant near the border.

At that time, Byron Kingdom took control of the access routes and set fire to the mountains, moving faster than Rhine Kingdom.

“Yes. That's when the Byrons abandoned their losses in the blazing fire below their chins. ”

“Yes. At the time, they chose an escape route that our side had opened for them, and they were ambushed and destroyed. ”

Gail applauds.

Pair, mate. Even.

“Very good, very good! What's your name? ”

“I'm Roan.”

“Good, Roan. You've done a great job today. And you have an excellent insight. I will remember your name. ”

“Yes, thank you. ”

Roan bows.

I don't want a big prize yet.

Although the Goblin troops were found in the search and suggested a good plan, they are still just new soldiers.

‘As the ball piles up and piles up, I'll be able to raise my rank and have my soldiers. ’

He didn't want to be too hasty.

But I didn't intend to relax like that.

‘I'm doing a great job in this battle. ’

The user grips the window.

Although his physical strength and strength are not the same as before, he has 20 years of experience and perspectives.

Four or five Goblins are confident enough to deal with them at the same time.

Then you hear Gail's voice.

“Prepare the forge. We dig a trap and lure them to you. ”

“Yes!”

Dawson answered in a loud voice and grabbed me.

He looks at Mason and Roan and shakes his hand.

“Return to your squads as well as the soldiers in charge of the tour! ”

“Yes!”

Mason and Roan answer in one voice.

Dawson glances at Roan for a moment, then turns to look away.

Is this from Dawson? ’

I have a bitter smile on my mouth.

Originally, it would be normal for that cold look and attitude to be contaminated.

However, for Roan, who has already lived with knife food for 20 years, Dawson is only as cute as a young child.

“We'll be going now. ”

Mason taps Roan, then heads down toward Gail.

After greeting Rondo Gail, he took a 13-minute walk.

I can feel the heat everywhere along with the sound of iron.

Is this your first battle? ’

Roan smiles.

It was a man's smile mixed with excitement and expectation.
