Eventually, the generals of the sub-tribe came and a military council was held.

"Then we will hold more military discussions than this"

When Princess Aura declares so, General Elkas raises his hand.

"I address to His Excellency the General. These maps are rough, but we used scouts and demons to produce our soldiers. Why don't you look at that and set up an operation?

"Well, when did you get that stuff? Well, let me show you that map."

"Okay. Bye."

When General Elkas rang his finger, the soldiers who were outside the tent brought a large map.

It was a map that was quite clearly drawn when I saw it.

This is where we are, so Takatoral Castle is... here.

When I found the plain on the map, I looked up a little from there and there was a picture across the river in the shape of a rough castle, written as Takatoral Castle.

Looking at it this way, it looks like a castle structure with a river fenced off.

The river flows west and south, so if you're going to attack it, it's just two sides from the north and east.

But when attacking a castle, it's always the way to make an escape.

Otherwise, the enemy resists desperately. If that happens, the damage won't be foolish.

(Either north or east don't let soldiers attack you, either way don't take long)

If we siege him, we may surrender, but we don't know what will happen now.

If that's what you're thinking, Princess Aura and General Elkas exchange enthusiasm.

"First of all, my primary goal is this Takatoral Castle, but I'm also concerned about the small castles around me. It's a castle the size of which can only be less than a thousand."

"Right. Let's start by dropping the castle and putting it in the lowest damaged castle."

"Is it good? It's an enemy castle."

"There may be a trap, but you don't know it until you look there, and you're scared of a trap you don't know if there's such a thing, and if you're about to set up a line outside, you'd better look it up carefully before you use it"

"Yes, sir."

"Tomorrow morning, as soon as the sun rises. Drop a small castle near Takatoral Castle. Each general is off tonight. Get ready for tomorrow!

"" "Ha!

When Princess Aura concluded so, the generals saluted and left the tent.

I also left the tent and went to check on the food and weapons.

The next day.

The sub-tribal armies split into units of their respective races and marched toward the castle.

Our human army remains in defense of this camp.

I haven't talked to Mai and her in a while. [M]

"It's been a while since I've talked to you guys."

"Yeah, well, Noh, you got your own territory as a baron, too, and you were barely in the royal palace."

"Hmm. We tried to get to Knob's territory once, but we were too busy to go."

"Inoda seemed busy, too."

"But I hear the territory I got for that is developing so much, is that true?

"Hey, we've got a couple of cities and a lot of villages."

"Still, it would be developing more than it used to be. That's amazing."

"Well, good luck with that."

"If Knob doesn't go back to his old world like this, he'll be a baron."

"Right. If so, who will marry you, Inoda, will be the Baroness."

When Mr. Vertebra said that, I think Mai's eyes glowed pikien.

There was a cold sweat on my cheek.

(But what would happen if I told you that someone who would already be the Baroness was almost certain?

I thought it might be a war if I said, "Actually, I already had prenup negotiations with Mr. Eliza and Princess Celine, so I can't marry her".

(No, that's all. Then I'm sorry. Don't let the country die if you suck)

With all of these four, I'm afraid that's how much I'm going to be able to do.

So we turn the story around here.

"With that said, it's been a long time since you've seen Tenjo, but you've changed a lot compared to before."

I had a sparkling, bright vibe in vain before, but when I saw it before this, it was like a dark bottomless marsh.

"Oh, that one."

"Uh-huh. I don't know what to say."

"There was something you deserved, but you felt a little sorry for the boulder."

The three looked indescribable for some reason.

But only Mr. Vertebra had his neck tilted.

"Yukinacci, did I tell Tenjo something so tough?

"Really?

Seeing Mr. Vertebra react, the three shake their heads sideways.

"Pathetic."

"This is a boulder."

"Yah, that's so pathetic, I think I'm gonna cry"

The three of them are talking about something, but my ears don't hear anything at all about what they're talking about.

Hmm. From what I've heard, it doesn't seem to matter, but there's still quite a big problem.

I tried to ask what happened. [M]

"Excuse me. Do you have a baron ⁉"

A soldier shouted out loud in front of the tent where we are.

Surprised by the size of his voice, I responded.

I'd be here.

"His Excellency the General, is here to see you. He came to the main office as soon as he could."

"Okay. I'll be right there."

I rise. [M]

"Well, I'm gonna go for a minute"

"Come on."

I left the tent listening to Mai's voice on my back. [M]

Leaving the tent, I entered the main tent.

Then Princess Aura and the leaders of each regiment stare at the map with a difficult face.

I think something happened to this, and I'm gonna talk.

"I'm more than happy to call you."

"Are you here?"

Princess Aura sits in a chair for herself saying just that.

"Baron, I want to borrow your wisdom"

"If it's my wisdom, so, what happened?

"I have a message from the Sub-Army."

"Are you struggling?

"No, the castle has already fallen"

"Did you drop castle? So why do you all look so hard?

"Reports say there were no soldiers there."

"You don't have one?"

"Oh, and that's what all the decrees report"

"... completion. Really?"

"Does your Lord know what your enemies are thinking?

"Yes, I understand the enemy's operation."

"" Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ⁉ ""

Each Legion Leader gives an impressive voice.

"And what's the enemy after?

They're after Operation Scorched Earth.

"Showdsaxen?"

When I say that, Princess Aura and the leaders of each regiment don't know what it means, they look at each other.

"Operation Scorched Earth is simply a maneuver that draws enemies into its own territory, confines defensive bases, and knocks on enemy supply lines and makes total attacks."

"Hmm. Cheng Cheng. Now, as it stands, the enemy has limited its defense base. So the enemy is coming to knock on the supply line?

"It's possible, but it could be poisoning food or wells in castles that have fallen more than it does at this stage."

"Right. Well, if we have food, we need to find out."

"Yes, you're right."

"Hmm. Then you'd better think there's some trick at the castle too"

"I can't say for sure that far, but there may be"

"Is it dangerous, then, to put our headquarters in a castle that we have dropped"

"You will be."

"I have no choice. We have to put the main unit down here."

I nodded without saying anything. [M]

And then it went straight to the meeting, and I joined.

After examining the castle that the generals of the sub tribe had fallen, the water in the well was poured with poison, and there was no food.

During the investigation, dozens or so of soldiers drank water without knowing that the well was poisoned fell into an unconscious weight. There were others who fell with their hands on the food that was in the warehouse.

After examining the castle itself, there were no traps.

However, thinking that there might be a trap to activate in special cases on top of the inability to use wells and the like, Princess Aura left her main unit on the plain.

But I haven't sent any soldiers to Takatoral Castle yet.

It would appear to send soldiers either to the north or east, or gather the generals of the subraces for a military council.

I also participate in the military council seat, but there has been an intense debate.

"Again, it would be east. The north leads to the path to the enemy capital. So instead of putting soldiers to the north, you put soldiers to the east and you cut off the morale of your enemies."

"No, you dare to put soldiers north there and cut morale. And if you attack, no matter how many enemies you have, you can drop them without difficulty."

"I think we should siege the two sides, attack the food, and then attack."

"Then it will take too long. More than that, we should attack uninterruptedly from both sides to induce enemy fatigue and make a total attack after that."

"I think we should use the Dwarf army's drilling skills to infiltrate the castle from underground and attack both inside and out at the same time."

and various proposals, but I don't have any such proposals.

I still don't say anything. [M] I thought I should say my plan here. [M]

Neither has Princess Aura spoken a word since the meeting began.

Probably wait for everyone to quiet down and talk about their thoughts.

Even while I think about it, the argument gets feverish.

Thorns mixed with words to see if it was the cause of the fever.

The thorn was disturbing, and a few people said a violent argument. The ramblings became a calling water and cursed each other out of the argument.

"That's the only way to do it, so they say you dig a hole or something!

"Hmm! What ear lengths say when you're only in a high mood and have no other handle than magic ⁉"

"Cashew, your operation takes too long. Can't you think of an operation that won't take longer?

"If you say so, Leon. Your maneuvers will accumulate fatigue on your side, but you don't know if the soldiers will be useful in this later attack on the capital. ⁉"

Something, you're already Gdagda.

I guess it's time for the general to get a drink here.

I think so, and when I send my gaze, Princess Aura notices my gaze, she sighs and breathes.

Everybody, be quiet.

When Princess Aura said so, they all became perfectly quiet.

The boulder is the son of His Majesty Bababol. It has no less majesty than His Majesty.

"We did not come on an expedition to devil's land to curse each other. Gentlemen, calm down."

That being said, each general seems to have cooled down.

I think I should say it here, and I raise my hand.

"Baron Turbuxon, do you have any ideas?

"Yes, before I do, I'd like to ask General Elkas something."

"Something?

"There should have been a village near the occupied castle. Were there any residents in the village?

"No, I wasn't alone."

"Thank you. Now we can think of the most effective operation in the current situation."

"" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa" "

Listening to that statement, the generals give a voice of surprise.

"And what kind of operation?

"Yes, the operation I've been thinking about."

The generals were surprised to hear about my operation.
