The Arksian army's methods of warfare in wartime can only be one pattern in large brackets.
I. Take the opponent's attack.
II. Waiting for the withdrawal, devastation, total annihilation, etc. of enemy forces before embarking on an inverted offensive.
III. Achieve the pre-set goals quickly, such as the occupation of the base.
This pattern, which is very simple, is maintained by the vast number of standing armies that Arxia has.
Now, enemy scouts have broken in, and Elgnard and the Marquis of Laurenzorel took their troops to the front line and headed ahead.
The troops I've taken are only one of the patterns, an advance party to play defense. The main unit is still inside this castle fort.
As soon as Marquis Laurenzorel returns from the front line, Eric will be asked to act as a nominee for the Senior House of Lords in front of the main unit - but he has several other tasks to do.
"What the hell is that, a job?"
He looked back with a troublesome look when I told him that I would visit Eric, who seemed to be free in the given room, to show him how to work.
He hasn't forgotten what he came here for because he's about to ask what he's going to do for once.
"It's condolences. This castle fort is equipped with a hospital that houses wounded soldiers. In the Royal Army, the Marquis of Laurenzorel has told us that our condolences to the wounded are from the Duke's house or above."
"Hmm... so why are you the guide? You will have nothing to do with the king's army."
"No, we hold a private knighthood, so we have the status of out-of-country martial officer of the Royal Army"
Holders of private knights are not included in the Knights' regiment. but will formally be registered as a martial officer by name only on the list of the Royal Army.
This seems to be the system for stating that the private knights eventually belong to the state and are not the private army of the holder. It's a completely nominal position only, and it doesn't mean you get paid like a regular martial officer.
... but the Elgnards often treat Eric's current babysitting duties as if he were an officer of the Royal Army.
A reward will be given only after what has been handled, but somehow that is one of the things that I am not satisfied with. I didn't mean to be a soldier at all, but I don't find it a little unreasonable to be incorporated into that frame at some point.
Well, I know the Elgnards are coloring the bounty, so I can understand why that's happening. It must be euphemistic support for the Cardiac territory, which seems to be narrow as ever.
Mandates to out-of-country martial officers will be treated almost like outsourcing under the military law of the Royal Army. And since there is no concept of outsourcing costs, the rewards paid are paid from the personal expenses of the consignor, not from the military budget.
"Uncle Wang has informed me that Baron Dovadine needs to finish all his condolences and inspections before the Commander-in-Chief returns."
"... ha-ha, okay, okay. I'll go."
You've been too bored these past few days, it's been easier to move Eric than I thought.
The consolation hospital was a brief expansion of the infirmary at Fort Castle.
Nevertheless, it is a hospital that is treated as a rear base, but also a facility that houses many seriously injured people who are no longer able to fight on the front lines and return to the country.
"Huh......!
Eric walked into the nursing room with a grumpy look on his face, but the moment he stepped indoors, he found himself holding his breath.
The soldiers lying in the nursing room... No, ex-soldiers. Many of them have missing arms and legs, suffered extensive severe burns, or were able to comprehend the pain at a glance.
"Dear Eric, could you please speak to each and every one of us? Patients in this room don't get to be on the battlefield as early as possible, they just wait to be picked up from their territory or home."
That's what the doctor calls Eric. Eric, however, stepped as frightened, retreating from the patient's lying bedroom.
"……………………"
I shake my head small, seeing the doctor and me together, to Eric with a flashing expression.
It was something you expected, but those who stay here still seem to have been too irritating for him.
There are no minor injuries in this hospital. Because minor injuries are not to come back from the front line in the first place. Only the seriously wounded, who suffered such great injuries that they could not move alone, but were spared death.
As I explained beforehand, Eric, who lived a life where the injury itself diverged from everyday life in the first place, didn't seem to understand how shocking it was until he actually saw it, even though he knew it.
If this had been Prince Wang or Grace, it would not have exposed the upset so far. Those two should be educated like that.
How should I forgive Eric for his condolences?
I'm only a guide, and I'm not in a position to connect directly to them, so I can't speak to the soldiers on his behalf. Because doing that could totally crush Eric's position.
... That's a pain in the ass. Why should I do something like an educator for a man my age?
Well, I was the one who came up with the proposal to give him a little stimulating social study, so I can't help it.
