October 2, 423, continental calendar. Before dawn, the Grand Duke raises balloons for reconnaissance and places infantry forward.
With a small number of detachment soldiers joining the main unit, information on balloons and gliders is definitely being conveyed.
The question is how trustworthy it is and what measures it will strike.
It would be best if you stayed helpless because you feared it was magical, but there's no reason to be so optimistic.
Nevertheless, it is probably impossible to directly attack balloons and gliders flying at high altitudes. The only means that could then be effective is to destroy balloons and gliders on the ground before flying by pre-emptive attack.
I'm alert to that and have almost all of the infantry lined up front, but this one's against 20,000. Nearly 90,000, including the detachment that joined us over there. It won't last very long if they make a total offense at once.
Most importantly, suddenly, assaults and other common sense are unlikely in all armies. 'It is unlikely that you will not be a bold commander with an accurate grasp of the performance of the balloon and a lot of decisiveness' is the unanimous view of the Grand Duke, the General and the staff, including Eina.
I wonder if it can be fulfilled, the Royal Cydal Army, which appeared with the dawn, had taken a square formation (hon.
One big formation of about 5,000 people, 12 in line at 4x3.
General Command on a small high hill at the rear and about 10,000 soldiers.
In addition, there are about 10,000 soldiers and about 5,000 cavalry troops to hide behind the hills.
They say the party is a defensive formation, and according to the analysis of the generals and staff, the soldiers who first took this attack and prevented it and hid it behind the hill. It was said that it would probably be an operation to turn the sergeant, the trump card, backwards and annihilate the siege.
"Thanks to the balloon. I don't know if I can see the whole way to the trump card. So what do you think of the party...... Eina?
That's what I say. I question Mr. Eina, Grand Duke. I don't know if I should ask you today because I have a few generals and staff members on board with me, but those generals and staff members are always looking at Eina.
Mr. Eina, you're already a perfectly capable military teacher.
"Perhaps, after not trusting the report of the detachment that has fled, you do not consider us Grand Duke of Pharos. You must have decided that the cavalry of the Idra Imperial Army had surrendered us and had driven its aftermath upside down north. The time between the defeat of the detachment and its advance to this point is fast for infantry subjects."
"... I see, so you're the one to stop the cavalry raid"
Both the Grand Duke and the generals and staff were convinced to snort (uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
"Grand Duke, this is an opportunity! The enemy is dense and upset. You can maximize the power of your Glider Squad!
The Grand Duke also nods loudly and shouts out at the words of his tense chief of staff.
"Send out the Glider Squad immediately! First, three planes per party. Second Battalion, concentrate on Commander-in-Chief!
By order of the Grand Duke, one of the staff officers begins to signal a balloon floating around with a red and white flag.
It was taking a while for orders to go through the ground in the last battle, and the wolf smoke (curse) only conveyed simple orders, so they conveyed the existence of a flag signal and asked me to think of something that would be easy to remember in a pose linked to letters.
The rest is just the people in the Grand Duke's staff, smart enough to make signals in a few days, and I remember.
Thanks to this, we are now able to communicate our intentions among the floating balloons.
I can't read the flag signal because I don't remember just passing on the idea.
Anyway, from the surrounding balloons, the glider sets off one after the other.
The enemy soldiers must have been upset to see a giant balloon rising high in the sky. The movement was slightly saggy from the start and the formation tended to be disturbed, but when the glider flew in with noise and the oil kettle was thrown down in the middle of the formation and the fireballs rose, the formation began to disturb in large measure.
Again, an attack from an unknown flying object. That too can't fight back. Unilateral attacks from the sky seem fearful.
Just six oil kettles fell on a population of 5,000, causing havoc, a formation whose commanders in line are desperately screaming but unable to regain control at all. The commander himself stood up and couldn't do anything. The commander escapes first and collapses, and the balloon offers a good view of its chaos.
Glider units in the first inning swirl several degrees over enemy lines to intimidate them before returning to this position.
The cycle between landing and being piled up again in the balloon and equipped with an oil kettle to go out again, they say, is an hour to two.
One glider now says it's 71 aircraft, with a slight decrease in landing accidents when fighting the detachment, and a slight increase in new ones being sent.
So after 36 first-inning planes go out, 30 second-in-command planes fly out into the big sky leaving some spare.
The second formation arrived at the enemy General Command on the hill and threw down one oil pot after another.
I guess the way the hills were covered in red flames and black smoke was also well seen from enemy soldiers on the ground only in small heights. Fear and confusion spread visibly throughout the enemy army.
"All right, let's launch a Ground Force Total Attack! Cavalry, bypass the sides and slap the Commander-in-Chief!
When the Grand Duke's orders are communicated, the army on the ground will begin to act no sooner.
The enemy army that is losing control is those who flee without fighting. Almost collapsed already, such as those who lay down on the ground and surrender.
Disadvantaged enemies have put in an elite unit they have kept hidden as reserve, but they can't even make a decent move on an already chaotic battlefield, and when each of the five gliders they had left in the enemy cavalry carries out a corrugated attack in turn, a horse threatened by sound and fireballs runs wild and can't make a decent move.
This horse has trained to be used to sound for a short period of time and has a cover on his ear, so he keeps his line and heads to the enemy's General Command.
... In an hour or so, the Grand Duke's flag flipped over the hill, and a number of sub-units who continued to resist everywhere also began to flee just as unbearably when 10 aircraft who were quick to return from within the first row of the Glider Squad made an attack as the third.
Just two hours after the start of the battle, the Royal Sidal Army seemed to have collapsed in total, with roughly half of them surrendering by noon and the rest scattered and fleeing.
"... I didn't know you would fight an unknown new weapon with all your moves spotted by your opponent. It would be frightening if I woke up..."
It must be false sincerity that the Grand Duke was deeply snorting (uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-
The victory or loss of the battle was decided.
The Grand Duke orders the Lords to pursue the fled enemy, and the main 20,000 to assemble.
There was very little damage and there were hundreds of people involved.
The enemy's pantry and supplies in the rear have also succeeded in obtaining them almost intact, which is a great victory to call a complete victory.
As far as I'm concerned, I'm glad to have succeeded in rescuing almost all the 8,000 slave elves who were behind us with supplies.
The fact that they were chained together and could not escape led to rescue in reverse.
It's a little complicated, but it would be the one called O'Rei as a result.
Mr. Listella will have a hard time with the increased burden, but I want you to do your best somehow......
The Grand Duke's main force of 20,000, which severed the Lords Army 5,000, starts further north towards the Wang capital after a small pause.
Even though we won the overwhelming battle, this is only half the battle...
