Me and 13,000 soldiers are going west all the way.

Once south to Zan-Dora and west from there... go above the streets to Trisnia.

He's rocking on Schwartz's back as he looks at the Erg Forest on his right.

"It's still a bad road compared to even Zan-Dora"

This expedition has mostly taken soldiers from the realm.

Naturally, it's not just Celia, it's Leopold to Tristan.

"You've become a luxurious concern. There were no roads around Rafen."

Hold Celia and stroke her head.

"Ha! Heh, the soldiers are watching"

You don't have to worry about that, because Celia's my mistress is no longer common sense among soldiers.

"It's time... not to go into Baron Hamey's territory"

"I'm Sir Barrier. We're sending out a messenger, so you can camp near town."

I've been talking mostly with the nobles of the West since before they left.

Nonna's always at the ball. She's having a good relationship with them because of the tea party.

"Well it's this power of war. I don't know about the usual relationship, but it couldn't be a rejection."

Leoporto waters down on Nonna's accomplishments because of it.

"Viscount Chavanne, who was garrisoned yesterday, was so threatening."

Celia was laughing bitterly.

We camped to surround a town of 5,000 inhabitants.

I simply wanted to put soldiers near the town, but I had no other choice.

"Now that I think about it, that's what she said."

I had him stay in Shavanne's mansion room last night, but one of my young daughters snuck in late at night.

I said please be cute, so I did everything I could against him.

"He was the daughter of a branch, I hear. I peed with white eyes, and it was terrible."

"Um, I was a virgin. I forgot my birth control because I was quite a beauty. I might have gotten her pregnant."

I get a cold glance from Celia and Myra.

Let's get out of the way.

"Better than that. Thirteen thousand against Atroapolis is enough?

Leopold, Tristan, it's your turn.

According to intelligence and information from the surrounding polis, the population of Atroa would be 30,000, and if it had to be, the civilian population would be over 10,000.

"They're not like us. All citizens are good soldiers."

That doesn't give you much advantage.

"But they only control farmland created over a narrow area of the city and its surroundings. I mean, we can't maintain a massive cavalry, and we don't have the flexibility to attack."

"Their cities are heavily defended as fortified castles, but they can't even evacuate the people."

Leoporto sends his gaze backwards.

There were decomposed stone throwers and cannons towed by horses

If it becomes a full-scale siege, the opponent will also make a terrible sacrifice to the people.

If this one pushes over as an invader, he may resist thoroughly, but he only attacks a party of Orthodox Magrads as surrender.

"If you try to be an Atroa citizen, you risk your family and your home to shelter the rest of us. If you fight in the castle, there will be an outburst of discontent."

"And Atroa's soldiers are quite powerful, and if this isn't a big force, they're bound to launch into the field."

I see, if you're in the field, you haven't lost this one either.

The 5,000 cavalry will promise you an absolute advantage if you don't even get the battlefield terrain wrong.

"And Eirich complained that the Royal Army should be out by the end."

"The military director would also like to take this opportunity to boast of his influence over the southern countries. I would have had to take it as an order..."

"It was helpful to be given the conditions to pave the way from the polis around you."

Tens of thousands, including the Royal Army, will not allow them to enter.

"I didn't dare negotiate this one either."

"It's just a good shame to lose this and go home. Do you have a plan?

"No, I don't."

I grab Tristan's head.

"Ouch! Please don't! It'll crush your head!

"It's true, but we don't need measures or anything. You can defeat the enemy's tactics without using them, and you can win enough if you hit them with a positive attack method."

Tell me that from the start, I almost gripped Tristan.

Let's say we march in peace.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Urban State Group Area Plains

"Has it come out as expected?"

"Is the number... a little over 10,000? That's more than I thought."

What we and the Atroa army chose for the battlefield was a plain dotted with hills.

The hills are so snug, it's unlikely to be that much of a battle obstacle.

"What do you think, Leopold?

"They obviously failed in their battlefield choices. A little more, we could fight in a valley that wasn't suitable for deploying troops."

"Difficult to fight is the same for the enemy, didn't you hate that?

Celia makes a face out of behind me.

"The enemy doesn't have to be defensive, settled. It's on this side that we're going to be exhausted soon."

"That said, it's extremely unpleasant to have enemy troops sitting nearby, and if we draw any more in, we'll be worried about sporadic attacks on farms and fields around Atroa. Apparently, they're taking the mood of the people more than we think."

Then if you defeat the first battle, you won't like the Battle of Tabernacle, and you might respond to the surrender.

"Let's hope so. All hands, move to battle formation."

At Leopold's direction, the formation changes rapidly.

The right wing has an infantry 4,000 led by Myra and 1,000 archers, the left wing has an infantry 3,000 spread led by Tristan reluctantly, and Luna has the bow cavalry Irigina ready to step forward even as soon as he leads the cavalry.

Leoporto is in command of the whole thing beside me.

"Dear Eigil!" "I will protect the chief."

Celia takes command of the escort and sticks to me, and Gido lines up perfectly as well.

Pipi jumped behind me.

Now I'm a bow cavalry too.

"Well, I wonder how the enemy will get out."

As far as I'm concerned, I could suddenly go in with a cavalry, but somehow I don't know who I'm dealing with.

"Enemy, expand left and right evenly! We're slowly advancing."

I see, are the enemies equally alert?

Atroa's soldiers have few cavalry as far as I can tell.

Almost everyone has a shield and a short spear or sword.

"Similar to Magrad's heavily armed infantry... but with a small shield, you're moving smartly"

"Sounds like you're going to hit it from the front."

Why don't we leave it to Leopold at first?

The Atroa army and my army approach each other from the front and push the archers to the lead.

And the arrows of both armies, which were fired simultaneously and simultaneously, descended into each other's heads in the air.

"It looks like we have the same range as this synthetic bow."

The enemy fires neatly and with medium accuracy.

He seems certain to be highly skilled.

"Guh!" "Wow!

The archers of the allies set up a large wooden shield, releasing arrows from the shadows, but still some number go dead.

But it seems that the enemy is the same and the formation is slightly disturbed.

"Second shot! Ugh!"

A second shot is emitted after a bruised sound.

If you look at it, the enemies are releasing arrows at the same time, so the level of practice is mutual.

"We're building big shields against each other. You can't settle a meeting like this."

"I'll move it from here. Great Crossbow Installed"

Leoporto signals as he faces forward.

In the middle of the squad, there were 40 large crossbows shooting at each other with right-wing archers.

It's a little smaller than the one for the siege. It's sized to tow in a carriage without disassembling.

It is slightly inferior to the authentic one in range and power, but has no assembly effort, so it can also be used in the field in some situations.

It also has a longer range than a regular bow, so you won't get caught up in the shooting of an arrow.

"Shoot!"

A signal is sent and a giant arrow flies with a low sound.

With an incomparable weight to the bow, it crushed the shield and swept away several enemies at once.

"Medium power but... terrible accuracy"

"I can't help but fix it to the ground"

Forty arrows were unleashed, of which only a few hit near the enemy formation.

This is far from what I would call a decision hit.

"Still somewhat upset,"

"Shall we storm the center of the enemy with a cavalry?

Celia seems to be trying to settle all at once.

But... it's still early.

"We haven't disturbed enemy control yet. I thought if we stormed, we'd get a heavy counterattack."

"Mmm."

Celia swelled when Leoporto calmly returned her.

Pull her cheeky cheeks out of the air and give orders to Luna's bow cavalry.

"Ordered the bow cavalry to crack left and right and shoot from the side. Go around the back and shoot... but avoid a white soldier fight with your enemies."

Leoporto also nods and gives instructions to the other troops.

"You heard the order!? Let's go!"

The bow cavalry cracks to the left and right 2000 at a time to increase its speed so as to surround the enemy greatly.

The enemy does not have a powerful cavalry, so it cannot be intercepted. If so, it should take a defense against the cavalry.

An archer at the head of the enemy tries to change the target from left to right to a bow cavalry, but he can't move as he thinks, being held back by a barrage of allies shooting harder at Leoporto's behest.

If the enemy changes their camp poorly here, this one can push the Archer forward and send down an arrow to the entire enemy.

"Okay, I've got to go around the left and right sides... we'll do it inside."

The enemy sees them circled. In an instant, they lined their sides with shields and spears.

Again, there was still no lack of control, it would have been in a powerful counter-attack if it had gone in poorly.

"But a bow cavalry is not just a cavalry"

A fierce shooting strikes the enemy that was preparing for a rampage from the side.

The formation of the enemy is disturbed by shooting from left to right.

We are concentrating our archers on the front so that we can't respond to the enemy on the side.

"Now it's time to storm..."

Stretch out the cheeks of brave Celia.

Not yet, the enemy has begun to change formation.

Troops with shields are moving sideways one after another to respond to the threat.

You can change the formation while being shot at.

The enemy is not confused yet.

"Left flank, right flank, forward."

Leoporto finally gives orders to Myra and Tristan.

"Then this infantry will be exposed to enemy arrows."

Celia confirms it, but Leopold can't be so sure.

"It doesn't matter, it's up to you next hand"

On command, the right-wing left-wing begins to advance, exposed to arrows and making sacrifices, but moving forward.

I will dismiss the third request from Illigina and watch it unfold.

"The enemy's troops will be concentrated forward!

Naturally, 1,000 archers can't prevent 7,000 infantry.

The bow cavalry that was attacking the sides also leads backwards.

It will take time for a bow cavalry to redirect and re-storm, then the immediate threat would be an imminent infantry from the front.

"Okay, now!

A bow cavalry swung back on horseback as it circled the sides of the enemy and went backwards, releasing an arrow toward the rear.

"Wow!" "He said backwards!

The moment the enemy was relieved that it was over, the rain of arrows poured down the rear that was supposed to be safe.

Until then, the formations that were strong are visibly disturbed.

"You can't do that."

As a result of trying to train the mountain people to make other bow cavalry, they could unleash arrows towards the front.

Few, however, could shoot sideways while running, and far more people fell and were injured than those who would turn backwards into things.

I asked Pipi and Gido the trick, but he said, "Wouldn't you be able to do it if you took care of him?" The answer came home.

After all, the technology I've seen over the years of habits can't be helped by half-training.

"Sir Hardlett."

"Um, I know"

Wait, let me tell Celia here.

"Oh, my God, the whole army!

"" Whoa!

I bit it at the heart.

Celia tries to say it again with tears in her eyes, but no more opportunity when she is wiped out by a whisper.

Left and right infantry squads also move from hasty foot forward to full force assault.

Seeing this one go full offensive, the opponent panicked and lowered the archers to push out the infantry, dealing with the left and right infantry.

Seems so.

Striking allies clash fiercely with the enemies of the precinct who do not pull a single step.

The avant-garde is in contact with the enemy.

Infantry collide violently with each other, and spears and swords are waved as they push each other.

Soldiers on the enemy side fall flabby and gradually their allies push their enemies in, but they don't seem to be deciding.

"Total attack on confused spots with rear shooting, can't we push it off now"

Once again, the Atroa soldiers are armed with metal armor and shields up to one soldier and cannot be cut down easily.

I thought my army was pretty well equipped, too, but if the infantry is bad with each other, they lose.

"Dear Agil, I can't push it off!

Slightly walking allies with falling enemies, but with the same degree of damage.

There again the arrows pour down from the bow cavalry, the simultaneous shooting while forming in the rear of the enemy, the attack from a distance sufficient to reach for now if shot diagonally upset the enemy for a moment, but not decisively.

"Leoporto, don't stick unexpectedly"

"Yes, I was reported to be highly skilled, but more than I expected."

You'll need to go a little hard here.

Send a signal with your eyes to Leopold.

"Left flank, right flank, turn to enemy flank."

Myra and Tristan each slowly shift the base of the attack to the edge.

Naturally, the siege from both sides is deadly, so the enemy shifts its power left and right to match it.

And the center opened.

"Follow me, Irigina, let's go!

"I couldn't wait! Skewers!

My escort joins the cavalry I left to Illigina to storm.

The enemy hurries to form a line against the cavalry, but it is not enough because the force is being moved by the left and right infantry.

I can eat this.

"Push on, we'll pull a thousand enemies."

They storm side-by-side in a row toward the center, but the horse's speed is different, so I'm out front.

"Dear Eigil! Please don't come forward!

"You will be targeted!

Celia and Gido are screaming, but can we slow down now?

Just stick it in.

Arrows fly from left to right, but I can't follow Schwartz running like a disease.

The only threat is the enemy in the front, thrusting through precisely cutting off the arrows that fly this way.

"All men versus cavalry defense...... WHAT!

Schwartz jumps when he sees a soldier with a spear trying to stop me.

The giant gently overflew the lined eartips and landed over the spear soldier's head.

"Gubble!" "Gubble!

Two soldiers are trampled by pathetic giants, and a few who were around them are swept away by my spear.

Tons and arrows stand on the faces of the enemies taken away.

Speaking of which, I had Pipi in the back, it was too light to tell.

There is no reason to wait for enemy soldiers who move in haste to besiege you.

Keep moving. Me and Schwartz try to block. The enemy bounces off, and the spear-targeting enemy cuts down.

"Pipi's gonna work, too."

Pipi aimed precisely at the enemy pointing the bowgun at us.

That's just hitting accuracy, no arrows to remove.

"The lord has made a hole! Go on!"

"Master Agil, wait!

An allied cavalry arrives in the hole in the formation I smashed through, and the defense is torn apart.

I don't think I'll have to worry about being blocked behind this.

"Stop the black cavalry!

"Don't be impotent, it's like a bull!

"Who's the cow!

Pierce the soldiers with spears every shield and throw them high in the sky.

You didn't even care about Schwartz. I kicked him in the chase of a soldier who screamed.

The assault will be fine here, there's no need to bust through the enemy lines.

"Come on, call me. Take me down and you'll see a win!

"Mmmm... a battle!

A man on a horse, like an enemy commander, comes in with a spear from the front.

Nice guts.

"Because!"

"Hmm!"

He flashed at each other by mistake, and his spear hit the shoulder of the armor and bounced off, and my spear broke off the guy with every armor.

Enemy soldiers around them circle their eyes and fall back.

"What's up? Are you scared?"

I jump off Schwartz and restart my spear.

The convoy also seems to be jumping off horses around me, on foot and cutting with the enemy.

"Oh no!

Cut off the foot of a soldier who tried to defend him by lining up his shield, crushing the head of another soldier as he stepped on his fallen enemy.

He spears the man who lost his head while standing and jumps in to chase him.

"Hii!" "Wow, here I come!

The blow after building strength in his hips blows the upper body of the two soldiers together, and from his hips down, only his upper body flies as he stands scattered his guts.

You've just gotten a lot of returning blood.

Slowly look around...... enemy soldiers pull away.

"Yah!

Turning his eyes, Celia was cutting with one of the enemies.

The rebuilt body is agile and agile, overwhelming the enemy.

That doesn't seem like a blow to an enemy soldier wrapped in metal armor all over his body...

"Hey, Shh, Yes!

Beat your helmet with the belly of your sword and cut off your fluttering enemy's thighs.

Enemies not only kneeling and squatting, plugging their swords into the gaps in their helmets sounded screaming and settled.

"I did it!

"Well done. But don't push it."

Giddo also cuts more than one another with the enemy soldiers.

Among the people of the mountains, a good physique guido also has the gift of swordsmanship.

You don't have to be on horseback. That's right. You won't be late.

"Next!

Celia cuts off the wrist of an incoming enemy and pokes her flank around the side.

She looked at this one with praise, but there was an imminent big man with a great sword behind him.

"Die, little girl!

Take the sword that will be swung down.

"To my woman... do what!

Cut up the thoughtful spear and leave the big man a thin piece of skin from his groin to his brain and kick him in the double, plus a forward kick and throw him into the enemy.

The blown big man seemed to fall in and crack quickly and terrorize the enemies around him.

"The enemy has begun to retreat!

"Both sides will collapse! Semi-siege complete."

The attack from the front confused the enemy and made it impossible to deal with the attack from both sides.

Myra and Tristan said they had just joined forces to complete the semi-sixing.

This made the enemy's situation absolutely unfavourable.

"Bow cavalry, formation restructuring complete! The assault begins at the rear of the enemy!

Decided, the earliest enemies still have the power to overpower attacks from front, back, left, and right.

The anger panicked and the whole enemy finally withdrew disorderly...... into a breakdown.

"Don't let them stay! Shoot the arrows constantly!

We're slowly moving forward as we put together the troops that were fighting the riots.

Anyway, don't give your enemies a chance to settle down.

Under our pressure to advance with an arrow overhead, the enemy eventually fled and scattered, throwing away heavy armor and swords, without rebuilding the whole thing.

"You're done, no pursuit needed"

The enemy is a citizen soldier, and excessive killing, in turn, gives him the will to fight thoroughly.

"We won again!

"We're the strongest!

The roar and anger of the soldiers echo.

I also lift Celia up in my shoulder car and scream.

And when Pipi climbed me and Celia, he spread his hands at the top.

Soldiers cheer louder.

"Damage report."

Leoporto, completely unaffected by such air, spoke pale beside me.

It's just unusual to look serious next to me with two women on my shoulders.

"There are about 50 cavalry and archers each and 300 infantry. There's no obstacle to marching."

"That wasn't much for a pretty fierce fight."

"It must have been because both of us were equipped and defensive. The defeated enemies would not have lost 2,000 if only for damage... but most morale would have broken."

That's fine, because we're not going to destroy Atroa from the start, and if we do that, we might get a simultaneous attack from the surrounding polis.

The point is, all you have to do is slap them and make them care to spit out the Orthodox Magrad.

"The reorganization is complete. Start marching before the enemy restores order."

"I wonder if it's easier to win than to win a fierce battle. No hassle."

Myra and Tristan are back too.

I can see from their faces that the damage is not serious either.

"Look, Lord Hardlett!

Iridina, you wipe the blood back. Not many bloody women laugh.

"Well, let's move forward when we deal with the wounded."

Our march continues.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Urban State [Ares] Council

Men gathered in majestic buildings made of stone.

This is the center of the city state Ares, a council that even kings cannot defy.

The incoming messenger tells the councillors who will embark on the journey.

"Atroa's army has been defeated by Gordonia"

Ooh, my voice leaks slightly.

Compared to us, Gordonia is not weak enough to break Atroa.

"Didn't you just push it around in numbers?

"No, only Sir Hardlett has come out this time... the Royal Goldonian Army is not out. You won't be leading a great army."

Mouthfully speaking councillors, the old man sitting at the center of it clapped his hands heavily.

"Be quiet! This is not a well held meeting of the women. Have a more constructive argument."

The blurring stops by chance.

"Atroa was badly defeated. Gordonia... The Hardlett Border Uncle will march on and attack their city"

Ares is located west of Atroa, off the march road.

Therefore, the march of the Gordonian army is not directly affected.

"It doesn't feel good to be allowed to do whatever you want in our realm..."

One of the councillors looks sinister, but the others argue.

"But Atroa deserves it this time. Did I say Orthodox Magrad... no extra barbarism, no escape."

"Dear Left, and if we don't throw them out now, we can't help but be told we're conspiring."

The Speaker listens to the senators and speaks out harshly.

"Uhm, then Ares is not involved in this matter, even though Atroa will perish. That's the seed they sowed themselves. If there's no such thing as barbarity that kills all our citizens, you can just leave them alone."

"Come on."

"Is that what's best?"

When the opinions of the Council are generally united, the door opens wide.

"Councillors, wait!

A wild loud voice, the senators unwittingly block their ears.

"It's quick to abandon Atroa!! Kapolis and I are better friends than our predecessors! Isn't it time to show that friendship at such a time!

"This is... [guildless] king..."

The intruder known as the king speaks to the councillors by activating the long body, the muscle, and not just the muscle.

"Compared to us, the Gordonian army and other uninhabited deer are the same! Twist without any bitterness! Even if the main army of the King of Gordonia were to come out!

"That would be..."

There is no one who goes against a word that also seems to be rampant.

Ares has a population of 40,000 and a large urban state group.

Industry and agriculture flourished proportionately, but above all was characterized by an overwhelming military force.

Not so many large armies as 15000 adult boys can be safely requisitioned.

However, boys receive military training from the age of ten and do not lack regular training until retirement at the age of 45.

Of course there is no one who cannot be made of men, from spears, bows, throwing spears to martial arts.

It was common sense for an Ares man to kill a pig with his bare hands, and a bear with a knife.

There are 1,5000 of the most powerful men who risk their lives for the kings and the kings.

But, my king, if Atroa wants peace, help or not, they're the ones who got upset.

"That's fellowship! If we're gonna settle this, we should do it with our own hands. It's uncomfortable to borrow an outside hand!

The king immediately contests the words of the councillor.

"If it's the same number, we Ares' soldiers can't lose. But blood flows... what is the value of blood shed for Atroa?"

"The king of Atroa's predecessors told me to ask for my daughter at this time! Sometimes promises are heavier than blood!

Unhesitatingly speaking, the guildless, but the councillors were not in tune.

It is the councillor who thinks more about Ares as a whole than about Wang's personal circumstances.

The blurring continued for some time, and the opinion was eventually summed up in the Chair.

"I see what the king thinks. But I don't see the point in intervening in this battle. Consequently, the council... will not approve of any military convocation or departure! King, understand, this is for Ares."

……

The king opens the door and leaves the floor by the time he enters the room.

The decisions of the Council bind the King.

You can no longer move an army against a king more than has been unequivocally denied.

But Guildless was honestly unwilling to follow the decision.

"King, could you not?"

"Well, the council is all backed up because of the profit."

Gathering around the king are muscular men no less than the king.

They all weaved their leather underwear and cape, a bunch of muscles that seemed to peel and sound.

"Then let's ignore councillors, etc."

"You can't do that, but ignoring the council is treason to Ares history itself."

It's not like Guildless doesn't think about the country.

I'd rather say I love Ares more than anyone else.

I couldn't break the laws of my beloved country.

"Then how..."

"We're going for a walk."

Huh? And the guys around me twist their necks.

"Me and my brave friends are going for a walk! There is no military collection. This is just a walk!

The men around me smile full face.

"Really, that's great! Hear that, King's Walk!! Gather those who stand up in arms."

The king speaks out with a huge voice that echoes around him.

"The eldest son, the one without a son, the newlywed cannot take part in this walk! It's a pleasure for the limited!

"Do... where do you go for a walk?

"It is decided. East of Atroa, the Togolese Valley!!

The men cheer.

For a true Ares man, fighting is the supremacy, the loss of life and other trivial problems.
