Maou Gun Saikyou no Majutsushi wa Ningen datta

It was at the dawn of the following day that the army of Rosaria, the White Rose Knights, attacked.

We were aware of that beforehand, and we took the bow and arrow out of the armory and carefully prepared it.

Martial artefacts are first-class items sent from rear cities.

Some bear the mark of the famous Dwarf's workshop.

It would be proof that the Demon King's policy of occupation is working.

A long time ago, the Demon King's Army said that there was no such concept as these barracks, and instead of weapons, they were not even supplied with food.

I mean, it's all local procurement.

Naturally, the humans under occupation revolt violently.

The Demons suppress the rebellion in order to hold it back.

Humans rebel even more.

As a result, mass outbreaks of refugees and the revolt of the inhabitants continue.

If they imitate that in the rear, the actual troops fighting in the front are not talking about where they fight.

In numbers, humans are more overwhelming than demons (except for orcs and goblins).

If pushed in numbers from both sides, forward and backward, none of them had a single demon army with a thousand demons.

"But now the occupation policy is working well enough. Wouldn't that be the same thing?"

was Giron's word.

I replied majestically, "Of course," but my heart was whimpering.

Indeed, the Demon King's policy of occupation has worked so far.

Neither has the city of Ivaris, which I keep, had one revolt so far.

But that's true for the future, or I can't say enough if asked.

Because I know what it's like to be human.

After all, it doesn't feel good to have demons wandering around the city.

Orcs are ugly as pigs.

Goblin's creepy eyeballs and green skin are creepy.

The size of a troll frightens people.

Actually, they are a big misunderstanding.

Sure, the oak is ugly, but if you look closely, it's adorable, and it's my favorite demon as pretty as an actual pig. Besides, it is often said that Orcs capture and offend human women, borrow their bellies and increase their offspring, etc., but it is utterly demeaning.

In the first place, Giron has three wives and 12 children.

Besides, goblins are creepy because of their appearance, but there are a lot of people who feel pretty good if you talk to them. A lot of guys don't have enough heads, but they also show cheerful dancing and stuff if they drink up.

But humans don't know about it.

Meanwhile, the demons look at human beings with similar eyes.

It is now that we are monitoring each other with prejudicial glasses.

With a few incidents, there could have been an avalanche hit and the inhabitants of the occupied cities rebellion.

"For example, if we lose this battle,"

Like...

I speak for myself.

"That could be enough."

So far it imposes the same taxes as when a human lord ruled, but the person sitting on the lord's throne is determined to be better human than a demon.

If we lose this battle, we won't even be allowed to cage and we'll be forced to retreat as we are.

- If you lose, I'm talking about.

Unfortunately, the person who dominated this city hated losing on top of giving up badly.

I hit a bunch of heavily equipped oaks from the front as I looked down the walls of the current approaching White Rose Knights.

He covers his entire body with full-plate armor, also equipped with a giant shield, and has a long spear.

The so-called dense formation (Phalanx).

It is a method of warfare used by Alexander the Great in ancient Greece.

The advantage of this operation is that it is dense and allows allies to protect each other with shields from each other.

that morale is lowered and that soldiers can be prevented from fleeing.

was.

However, there is careful training to use this formation.

If there were one coward, this formation would collapse.

"You've achieved everyday workouts."

and Giron, Oak's staff officer, loosens his face.

"It's more than I ever imagined."

I answer.

"Normally, for a knight, there are five oaks and they're each other."

"Right."

Unfortunately, a demon named Oak is weak.

Often treated like a miscellaneous fish character in a novel, but that's the same in this world.

If you're a normal knight, you can take about five of them alone.

It's crossing each other in the same number, so I guess you can see the effect of this formation.

Once again, when I paid tribute to the proponents of this formation, I ordered the archers of Goblin to release their bows.

The bow released from above the walls draws parabolas and pours down on the knights.

"Wow!"

It seemed like I could hear the knights screaming so far that I shouldn't have heard them.

You must not have thought you could shoot a bow from above the castle.

Regardless, there are demons who use bows in the Demon King's Army, but wouldn't it be the first time my troops have run it as a weave?

Humans, of course, must not have even thought about the Demons, no, the Goblins of the day, such as turning Goblins into bowmen too.

In the first place, handling bows is difficult to guide.

No, it's not out of the question, it's very difficult.

Swing your sword, stick your spear up.

Even monkeys can do that, but they have advanced training to handle bows.

In fact, even in Japan, during the Warring States, it was more basic for samurai to learn how to handle bows and horses than to handle knives and spears, and in the Middle Ages, England's long-armed troops of archers were not just conscripted peasants, but specialized units with bow training.

When the Immortal Brigade was deposited, the first to go was the organization of the Archer Army.

Anyway, I was clumsy, but clumsy, so I thought that goblins that could focus on one thing were just right for the Archers.

... Well, I could call it simple.

Anyway, my operation has been perfectly successful so far.

Heavy Oak Infantry Stronger Than Expected.

Even the organization can't exist. Goblin Archer Squad.

The elites of the White Rose Knights, who have trained in training, will be surprised.

I didn't miss where they came from and just put in the trump card.

He put in an elite, magical swordsman unit of the demon clan led by Lilith of Sacubus.

Typically, demons are stronger than trained knights.

Born with a strong body and mighty magic.

Doesn't this one require 10 skilled knights to defeat one on the contrary?

Not so much. Demons are strong.

But the upper demon clan has a limited number.

Everyone also needs to pay close attention to their treatment because of their strong self-esteem.

(- I don't have to worry about Lilith because she's in love with me.)

Besides, there's no question about your strength.

Lilith said,

"Be the first demon swordsman of the Immortal Brigade, and see the strength of Lilith, Lord Ike's future wife, but good people"

And, with a high laugh, he mutilated the formation of the Knights.

"Um, as brilliant as ever."

Its strength alone could be comparable to that of a brigade leader.

Her work makes the formation of the White Rose Knights truly twofold and plunges them into havoc.

who appears to be the enemy commander,

"Yeah, not like this, once, pull the line"

And he seems to be giving orders to his men.

The captain and thoughtful figure, dressed in bright white armor, retreated as he struggled to the end, building a retreat path for his men.

"Quite a person."

Normally, to spare his life, he stays on the battlefield until the end of the day with the first thing to escape, and he revives his command. It was not quite something that could be imitated by ordinary people.

"You're a general with bones."

Looks like Giron noticed that too.

"Oh, nobility is a lot of people out there. No one can quite imitate it."

"Even the Demons don't have that type. Everybody, get out of here first. Normally.... no, well, not Master Ike"

"No, the rhetoric is good. Besides, I guess I'm the first type to run. If the commander dies, there will be no one to command the troops. As a result, more soldiers will die."

"That means that the commander is incompetent."

"Don't be."

But... and I go on.

"Looks like it saved his life."

When I say that, I do a magic chant.

"Su, you puppet soldiers who leave untrained in this world!

It was actually a more complex, cumbersome and elusive language of pronunciation, but would this be the case if it were made into Japanese?

However, the meaning is exactly the same.

The moment I cast that spell, from the sand behind the enemy troops who were retreating, my bone arms jump to the ground. Then the human skull shows itself.

"Oh, that one!?

You must have seen the sight with the magic of Farsightedness. Giron seems surprised.

I'll explain.

"The area was made of sand, so we buried Skeleton soldiers in advance."

Revive with the signal, pinch and annihilate the enemy.

That was my idea of the operation.

Enemy soldiers must have been surprised.

Because they adopted a method of warfare that was never possible in the battle between humans.

It shouldn't have been surprising to be used such a curiosity after being struck down by a lump. I couldn't help but sympathize with the enemy soldiers, but this one also keeps the lives of his people. I couldn't do anything about it.

I guess the oddity has become a decision maker.

The White Rose Knights, who lost their will, could no longer even form formations, but disappeared into scattering.

I mean, I won the defense.

That's also in an overwhelming way.
