Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

Episode 115: Kagojo Battle

Time goes back about a month.

Bartolo and Tonino (Carlo and René in bonuses), who were defeated by the kingdom of Roselle, had a meeting in the palace of the kingdom of Demorgarh.

"OK! I lost to the Roselle Army, what can I do ?!"

First of all, Carlo Domorgar, the greatest of them, declared so.

Members other than Carlo have a dark expression.

After the defeat, of course.

Carlo with high tension is strange.

"Well ... we can only take one hand at the moment. Kajo."

Bartolo cut it off from the start.

Carlo asks Bartolo.

"But the number doesn't change? Can you fight back, Bartolo?"

"It's impossible. Morale has fallen visibly."

Bartolo replaced Tonino with Carlo's question.

Now that morale is extremely low, there is a high probability of losing if you want to fight. Therefore both Bartoro and Tonino chose Kajo.

The reason is that if you have a low morale, you won't lose in Kagogi battle.

"The problem is food. René, how much food was stored in the royal capital?"

"First of all, it was about two months' worth. Now it's being charged from the surrounding villages and merchants. The gold coins that were in the royal capital were untouched, so I'm fortunate. Is it possible to prepare for five months? "

René Blouse replied.

Rene is useless in combat, but shows good skill in food management.

He was currently in the role of managing Allied weapons and supplies.

"Please buy sake too."

"... I can't afford to spend valuable military money on your hobbies."

"No !!!! Well, I really want to drink ... but I need it to raise my morale."

Meal is the only good thing about soldiers on the battlefield.

Food must be conserved in the Kagogi battle, but instead we must dispense liquor and other special items occasionally to raise the morale of the soldiers.

Otherwise, the castle will not have it.

"I'm happy if there is smoked meat if possible."

"Huh ... let's buy it if you can afford it."

Rene takes out the parchment and takes notes.

"Is it okay to hear one?"

"what?"

"Isn't it better to consume less food? Shouldn't the residents be better off? They don't want to get involved in the fighting."

Carlo asks Tonino and Bartolo.

The peculiarity of the Kagogi battle is that there are civilians behind.

"They have a life, they have a house, and they have nowhere to go even if they get kicked out.

Tonino answers.

People living in urban areas are those who earn their livelihood through commerce or crafts.

If you drive out, you have no way to live.

You can sell things to soldiers during the Kagogi battle, so it's better than going out.

"And it's not always bad to have civilians because you can ask the people for logistical support."

For example, letting residents care for injured people.

The soldier's hands are free, which is advantageous.

"In addition, there is no battle where amateurs are more likely to participate than in the Kagojo battle, because simply throwing a stone from above can kill a person."

Girls and children can do it as long as they throw stones.

"Conversely, whether or not the Kagojo battle is successful depends on the cooperation of the residents of the royal capital. Thank you, Carlo-sama."

"I was left!"

Carlo is thrilled.

Basically, many commoners are unaware of kings.

Rarely do they go out of the village, so the best of them is the local tribe.

I can't imagine being greater than the royal family.

But this is the royal capital.

The king's capital, the king's knee, is heavily influenced by the king, for better or worse.

The predecessor, King Demolgar, was not particularly losing, and was well received by the residents.

The impression of Carlo, his eldest son, is not bad either.

By the way, the impression of Aldo Demorgar is not so good.

Adernians hate murder.

However, in the case of Aldo, the time that ruled the royal city itself was short, so the impression from the residents was "not good".

"Well, Gauls don't seem hesitant at all about looting, so I think it's easy to get cooperation."

Bartolo shrugged.

Adelnian royals and kings (preferably) do not loot.

Because they share the same language, culture, and blood, they remain as lumps to rule later.

But the Gauls are fine.

Gauls are foreigners who speak a different language and have a different culture from the first place.

Therefore we do not stop looting.

And the Gauls live more on hunting and livestock than on agriculture.

For them, war is something to take away and looting is the right of the winner.

The nature of the humans who lead the army also has an effect.

This time, the chief commander of the Roselle Army is General Cryu. That assistant is Merlin.

The commander of the Adernian army is a royal tribe, like a politician plus a military person divided by two.

But Commander-in-Chief, Cryu, is different.

He is a natural soldier, not a politician.

So I don't think about governing later.

In addition, she is an assistant magician, but she is a magician. Military and politics are different.

And she was originally a flat-faced patriarch, a sex slave and wife of King Ezel.

"Kill all enemies." "My thing is my thing." Your thing is my thing "" If you see a woman, take it away. Commit. Marlin, who has learned the “common sense” of this world under the concept of a flat family whose basics are “married women are looting,” can not surrender the ban on looting and rape.

Few people surrender with their hands raised, even though they know they will be unhappy if ruled.

The advantage of the earth and the people were in the Allies.

However, Carlo, Tonino and René have complicated expressions.

I can't rejoice because the people of my country are still killed.

"I must leave the magician behind ..."

"Thank you for your selection. The magician of the kingdom of Domorgar will be more likely to hide."

In the Kagogi battle, the enemy surrounds you, so no outside information comes in.

However, if the magician is laid down in the surrounding villages in advance, information can be exchanged using owl flights.

However, the enemy is not so easy because it is vigilant.

"Sorry! Is it okay to enter the room!"

"No problem.

When Carlo answered, the door opened and a large man entered.

He is one of the leading members of the Carlos and is currently assigned a temporary command of soldiers.

"I want the residents of the surrounding villages to go inside ..."

"Hmm, I see ..."

Carlo looks to Tonino and Bartolo.

Tonino and Bartolo nodded quietly and lightly.

"Put it in."

"Yes!"

The tribe happily responds and runs.

This no longer killed the residents of the surrounding villages.

"Rene. Secure more supplies."

"... I know."

Rene sighed.

However, there is no way to do it because I can not afford to abandon it.

"The rest is up to Retis and King Rosais ..."

Tonino muttered.

King Rossais has already received a statement that he will run as soon as possible.

However, it is probably at least one month ahead since the Equus, Belvedir and Evil have surrendered.

René's older brother, Letis Blouse, is working hard to suppress the local Aldoists.

At one point they turned to the Carlos, but now they are leaning back to the Als, rather than the Roselles.

Some Australians, however, remained reluctant to Aldo Domorgar, who relies heavily on the Gauls' power, and remained a Carlo.

It will take at least a month to enact and conquer the local Aldos.

In other words, you must have at least one month.

"Well, I'll definitely have one month, but beyond that I'm really suspicious."

Bartolo shrugged.

As a matter of fact, Bartolo has never been in a cage for a long time.

The Battle of the Terrier Fortress lasted three days, and there were not many soldiers.

This time, however, everyone had a few months of basketball battle.

There are unknown places.

"But we have to win. If Roselle drops here, we'll have a big Gaul base on the South Adernia Peninsula ..."

This means that the Gauls will gain control of the Adernian Peninsula, and in the future will lead to a future in which Adernians become slaves of the Gauls.

We must definitely stop here.

"But it seems better to be prepared to take the territory to some extent in a peace with Roselle. You'll have to give it to Rossaise ... oh, why, for me ..."

Carlo complained.

Carlo will be the most struggling king of all the past kings of Domorgar.

"Do you want to give your letter to both Faldham and Gilbed? If the country falls, it's evident that the pressure of Roselles on both sides will increase. I can do that. "

With Tonino wrapping up, the meeting ended for the day.

The most important battlefield in this war is the Kagogi battle.

Defeated by Evil, Belvedir, and Equus, the territory is ceded.

However, the defeat of the Allies in the Kagoshiro battle meant that the kingdom of Domorgar had disappeared and the kingdom of Rossais had been subordinated.

Even if you win in other battlefields, if you lose in this basketball battle, everything will be over.

Conversely, if you win in this basketball battle, you will be able to get back even if you lose on other battlefields.

Indeed, the Kagojo battle is the key battle in this siege.

A battle between the kings of the kings of Demorgar and the kings of Rosais was about to begin, betting on the destiny of the Adernia Peninsula.
