Episode 376: Central Plains Unity War ① North Invasion Begins

Third Army Regiment of the Royal Army of Southern Goldonia, Trinidad and Tobago

"The southern Eugrian army crosses the border! Crossing the border!"

"Just some of it!? Or has the whole exercise army gone beyond!?

Command is dominated by anger and footsteps.

"While the details are unknown, the enemy will proceed in attack formation! Doesn't seem like an accidental crossing!!

"... the Military Director did what he said. Immediately set up a defense system to buy time. Then send a reinforcement request to Wang Du!

The commander gives precise instructions even though he cannot hide the upset.

"His Majesty's orders were only to monitor the exercise."

"His Excellency the Military Inspector General said he was bound to come. Thanks to this, we can move quickly."

Still, the commander continues.

"The enemy had mobilized almost all his troops into the exercise. When it all moves, it's not exactly the size that 15,000 a soldier can't prevent."

"The situation has been passed on to other groups of soldiers. The military commissioner should be sending reinforcements soon."

The commander nodded deeply and bit down the words that followed.

(The other regiments are scattered in preparation for the rebellion, which is not even His Majesty's life. It will take awhile to pull off the formation and get ready to move, even if reinforcements tell you to go. Can you hold it till then?

Thousands of horseshoe sounds approaching mixed with ringing alarm bells and soldier screams.

"The vanguard of the enemy is coming! Form a line against the cavalry!

"We're already here, just in time!

"There's an iron carriage mixed with cavalry! Watch the crossbow."

"How do you pay attention while forming a cavalry against you!

"You know what! Think for yourself!

Command was surrounded by hustle and anger.

Tortoent 'Green Exercise' General Command

Since "Exercise" began, the Southern Eugrian Empress Wilhelmina has never moved from one of the command rooms set up in Tortoent.

She keeps staring at the door in a room that is too primitive to look modestly.

The door opens at the same time as the sound of the knock.

It is an act that is inherently too disrespectful to the imperial opponent, but Wilhelmina spins her words without blame.

"Report, Zaphnes."

There is no foreword or honor, it is an inappropriate abusive rhetoric to the Empress.

But the other man won't mention it again.

"We completely destroyed the Third Goldonian Army. All the merging wooden troops have been kicked, and the Trisnian occupation has been a success."

"Finally."

Wilhelmina snorts small and exhales.

"You've stuck to just 15,000. Western troops say they have 80,000, especially the elite."

"The settlement had arrived from the beginning. They were just buying extended time. The enemy has inflicted more than 10,000 damage on the evidence, but this damage is only a few hundred. If you look at the numbers, you can call it a complete victory."

The Third Goldonian Army destroyed a five-fold enemy after fighting it for five days.

The Royal Army's main force did not make it only to the smaller units that were hitting the perimeter to maintain security.

As a result, Trisnia fell and the area south of Loreil came under southern Euglia control.

"Nevertheless, I didn't know only 15,000 would come out heralding all army exercises near the border. King Gordonia seems to have liked the gift a lot. Was it a little unexpected that I was so far out of line?"

Wilhelmina tells him to make a little fool of himself, and Zaphnes agrees and laughs but quickly makes a bitter face.

"If Goldonia had meant it, he would have been able to stake the same number of soldiers or more on the border as we do. But it's not the opposite that they've been defenseless so far. I wish I could have stayed about 50,000."

The total strength of the southern Eugrian army, avalanched into Gordonia, amounts to 200,000.

Eighty thousand western troops proceeding along the river, fifty thousand central troops proceeding slightly inland, and seventy thousand eastern troops leaving Kissat to head north over the hardlet territory.

This is almost all of southern Euglia's first-tier strength, with only immaturely trained soldiers remaining in the territory.

"Westerners pushed in if enemies were more powerful, while the manoeuvrable Central Army planned to besiege and destroy this. The Ode Victory is first and foremost a good one... but I can't really say that just crushing a little over 10,000 caused a fatal injury to the Gordonian army. It didn't go as well as it did in Liberties."

"If we crush it in a war, will we struggle?

Zaphnes looks blatantly annoyed when Wilhelmina tells him to provoke.

"I didn't make a weak noise. It just takes time. Everyone wants to win quickly and easily."

The Empress gently apologizes that it was bad before urging her to continue.

"Whatever it was, Trisnia fell. The first stage is success."

"First stage of engagement...... that's a success. After sweeping the remaining enemies, drop the Loreil jointly with the Western and Central armies. Exactly because the effect of the ambush is lost, it will be a fierce battle and damage will be done, but here we can win first"

Zaphnes slides the fingers he puts on the map from near the river to the east.

"The Eastern Army drops Zan-Dora, a major shock south of Hardlett territory. The Eastern Army is 70,000, Hardlett's army is strong for the Lords Army, but 20,000. There are no robust fortifications in the territory either. This one can win without so much struggle. Drop the three cities of Trisnia, Loreil and Zan-Dora and the first phase of the operation will be complete."

Wilhelmina keeps listening to Zaphnes without saying anything.

"This is followed by a second phase, in which the western and central armies work together to drop the major city of Arkland. Arkland is a much more robust fortified city than any other, but we have enough cannons. If you can break enemies in the field, the city can drop without a problem. The walls and gates of the Central Plains don't envisage being shot down with cannons."

And fingers slip to the east.

"The Eastern Army is the second stage in targeting Rafen from Zan-Dora. This is where the streets maintained from the surrounding cities gather, the largest major impulse in the east that also passes the main streets to the Wang capital, Gordonia, with plenty of stockpiles. I definitely need to drop it. Well, Rafen has a large urban area, but the city walls are small and medium-sized town-level toys. You won't even need a decent siege weapon. Hardlett's cavalry is troublesome... but if you fish it out before you go into attack and crush it in the field, the rest will be extremely easy."

Wilhelmina pinches his mouth where Zaphnes tries to move on.

"Wait, let's send extra siege weapons to the Eastern Army for once. Depends on what you're working on in the Express."

"... I think it would also be more useful to send it to the Western Army for the fall of Arkland. Rafen says spy reports are planting trees around the city walls for reasons such as missing the view. It's a stepping stone for an attacker, and if you can set fire to it, it'll burn every wall of the city. It's no big deal because I don't give a shit."

"Don't say that, it's the fight you don't know what's out there, right?

Zaphnes is reluctantly convinced to say so.

"The third stage invades the West Bank across the North Terriers River, crushing the Republic of Stura and the Governor-General's Office in Magrad. There are only a limited number of troops that can be put into the operation with a frontal front, but resistance is minimal because the area is extremely disruptive."

"Um, I'm talking to one of the city states. We made a commitment to send out a fleet of support at the stage where we fell Arkland."

If we can hold back the West Bank region, the southern Eugrian army can march without worrying about the sides, and vice versa, the Gordonian army will not only be in the south, but will be feathers preparing for raids from the west side of the king's capital.

"And the last fourth stage. Attack and dominate the King's capital, Goldonia, from three directions: west, south and east. That's it."

Zaphnes slaps hard on the bread and on the map Goldonia.

"Equipment is almost equal in strength and skill, morale is not afraid of death, and our soldiers are on top, and the strength of supplies and defense lies with the enemy."

"Well, so you mean each other?

Zaphnes laughs invincibly.

"No, I will definitely win. I am more capable than the Goldonian commander, and I will do everything in my power to win, King of the Gordonians, who beat you and your woman... there is no reason for a fool to win with the same stature."

At that time, the door is carefully knocked.

"Get in."

"Excuse me! Great Wilhelmina, Your Majesty and Great Fatherland, be eternal!

A soldier saluting Bubba, Wilhelmina gives back but only shows Zaphnes a sinister face.

When he saw it, Zaphnes laughed sarcastically, 'This is what happened because you stir up too many people.

"We have a report from the Eastern Army! Ready to attack Zan-Dora! Hardlet troops deployed in front of you, destroying this and plunging the city! That's it."

"I didn't expect you to come out early. There's going to be a little piece of it in the east."

Zaphnes nods contentedly.

So I look at the map and then I say blush.

"Mort...... are you there?

"It's a barn zone. Of course I want it if it's going to be a long fight."

Zaphnes looks into something with his thighs.

That was a list of reserves in training.

"Then let's form a Central Second Army to occupy it temporarily. The training is just right."

Wilhelmina's eyes narrow.

"Have you forgotten, my competent commander?

"That's not why... this country is virtually a protector of hardlets. If you control the hardlet territory, it's natural.

and get it. "

"I don't like deception."

"... sorry, I left it while I thought it would matter"

Wilhelmina laughs all the time.

"I've already made an order. Give it to the troops in training and let them go."

Wilhelmina says in a frightened voice and Zaphnes bows his head with a bitter laugh.

And it was the moment to pass beside her.

"Never again."

Little whine. Stiff as if the big man's body had even been protruded with a blade on his spine.

"What's up?

Encouraged by the Empress, Zaphnes flies out of the room with all his might.

It's not that I wanted to get away from Wilhelmina any sooner than I was running, or that I wanted to delude myself that the sweat that runs down my forehead was something that erupted because I ran. Tell yourself so.

◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇◇

Not long ago, near Rafen.

The long line of snakes marches ahead of me.

"According to the scouts, the number of enemies is about 70,000, a general formation. Continuing march towards Zan-Dora, feet not fast"

Leoporto faintly conveys the information he entered on his way to the march.

"Seventy thousand..."

Celia and Myra are breathtaking.

"This one's for sure -"

"Fourteen thousand infantry, one thousand five hundred cavalry, one thousand five hundred archers, six thousand archers, one hundred and thirty cannons of all kinds, sixty tanks."

Celia answers even.

I stroked his head and he seemed nervous but a little happy.

I thought it was quite a big army with all the troops out and the bow cavalry out, but three times that?

"I'm guessing Wilhelmina didn't come at me for the lead."

I had a drink with Liliane a while back and joked about it, and I played with letting her act Wilhelmina and hold me.

Has he been asked by spies in southern Euglia because he shouted quite a bit despite the city's take-in inn?

The setting was actually a slut, because Wilhelmina was a terrible thing about being stuck in my gigantic roots and swearing allegiance to my male roots, so I can snort that she's coming to crush me if they find out.

"Were you doing such a nasty thing..."

Was it in your voice? Celia, who was in a good mood after being stroked in the head, is trying to persevere.

"The enemy army is heading north in three parts. You must be targeting Wang Du from three directions. If so, it is only natural to direct an army towards Rafen, which is connected to the Wang capital by streets maintained in the eastern part of the country."

Leoporto keeps reporting on my stupid story.

"Seventy thousand for one of the three, this is still a joke scale"

The battle between the Empire and the Federation was massive, but the intrusion was other personnel.

But if we lose this time, we lose territory. And most importantly, it's hard because the women are going to be in danger.

"There is a local interest and a triple force difference is deadly. Can't we manage to rendezvous with the surrounding Royal Army?

Says Myra in a worried face.

I guess a person as knowledgeable in tactics as she does feels things more serious than I do.

"The Fifth Army Regiment of the Kingdom is located east of Arkland. It's not impossible to rendezvous."

"Then let's get a transmission out quickly. If this happens, the king is not in the inner circle. If we talk, we'll rendezvous."

A premature horse jumped there and handed the sentence to Leoporto, not verbally.

"- It still seems impossible to rendezvous. Trisnia has failed. The Fifth Army will be on their way."

"Trisnia!?

"I can't believe I didn't have it for a week..."

Myra and Celia raise their voices.

It did fall fast.

But they've come to me for 70,000, so they'll be the same or more.

For example, there is no way that the Third Regiment will be able to support you with 15,000.

"Well, that's pretty brilliant."

It's Secrito who's been following me funny to speak up.

Just like a vampire woman, you're supposed to be my escort.

"So brilliant? Wouldn't you be able to smash 15,000 for seventy grand if you weren't an extra asshole?

Morale and equipment are important, but the battle is still above all.

The slightest difference can be managed by the hard work of soldiers and commanders, but if it opens five times, most of the time, nothing can be done.

"No, not that way. Eirich... did I say something? That's him."

Secrito laughs.

"The people of southern Eugenia would have missed that one. Only 15,000 were caught in a surprise attack."

Look at Leoporto as provoking.

Of course there is no change in his expression, but he speaks the rest in a pale tone.

"Perhaps the Chief Military Officer deliberately placed only the Third Army on the border while he could not stake out the whole army at the king's direction."

"Wouldn't that just wipe it all out!

Celia barks. Tristan only said 'That's terrible' and lowered her gaze, as Myra also guessed.

"If you stick up 50,000 but get ambushed with a larger force, it will do a lot of damage and affect the entire battlefield. Thousands or so of them are kicked into a single armor sleeve, allowing Rage Tao to attack. If you are a soldier, you will not be decisive if you are exterminated, and you will be able to stop enough enemies."

"Then the Military Director deliberately took the Third Army..."

Celia looks sad.

"It is decided. The King minimized the damage when he saw that the battle would always be lost. Southern Euglia and their invasion ops are also reasonably appropriate... I think I've seen them somewhere, but okay. It's gonna be a pretty good, funny fight."

Seems like you're having fun, Ceclito.

"Say what. You'd be exalted, too, wouldn't you?

"Don't be silly. If we lose, we start all over again, right? Nervous, my groin's about to swell."

"Are you a male root, not a chest... and you can't crush it"

Ignore Celia's penetration. Secrito grabs my cheek.

"Ouch."

"Don't you see?

What is it?

"You've been laughing ever since you left, huh?

There's no way.

"See?"

……

Why turn away?

Let's change the story.

"I've brought in almost the whole army, but you think Rafen's better off?

Unlike usual this time, it's a real full-fledged launch.

We've brought almost all of our troops, and Leoporto, Tristan, Myra, Celia, Irigina, Luna and all the people in command are here.

I mean, Rafen is completely defenseless.

"It's impossible for Arkland to fall or for his enemies to target Rafen unless we break it. Possible raids by a small number of surprise units, but I was wondering if temporary units could deal with it adequately."

"Temporary units, that's them..."

Reminds me of the sight I saw in Rafen just before my departure.

"We'll take care of your absence, and if you're willing to die, you can work for this old bone."

It is a group of people over the age of fifty who are gathering together.

He's old enough to be considered ineligible for an ordinary soldier, but he might be able to do some cage battle.

Well, this is good.

"We will also try to protect the mansion and the city!

"High salaries and free rent too!

"And the status of a maid with a lord!

The servants and maids of the Mansion are gathered here.

He grabs spears, crossbows and other objects that are relatively easy to handle in his hands.

I attract one of my maids and put my mouth to my ear.

"I appreciate you trying, but surrender if you're about to get killed. Don't imitate throwing your life away because I will save you even if it's hard on you."

"Ah..."

The maid's face turns red.

This is going to be eaten as soon as I invite you home safely.

Well, it's painful to let a woman have a weapon, but this is good too.

The problem starts here.

"We will fight for the chief, too!

"Yes!"

"All right, back to the mountains."

I immediately point to the mountain.

They are mountain folk...... but those who can fight are serving as bow cavalry, so here is what couldn't be bow cavalry. I mean, he was a really little kid.

"I had an adult ritual too! I'm a warrior."

"You can fight!

"How old are you?

"Eight!" "Ten! 'and a cheerful voice returns.

"All right, go home."

Again, the kids look sad.

You don't look like that and you're not falling off enough to make your kids fight.

"But everyone who did the ritual of adulthood is a warrior..."

Attract the boy who answered 8 still saying bump.

"Then go back to the mountains and encourage them to hunt, and I don't know if I can give them food if the battle gets intense."

It's not a lie.

In the unlikely event that Rafen becomes a battlefield, he will not be able to transport food.

For the people of the mountains need to be fully self-sufficient, as they used to be.

Adults are collectively paying off as bow cavalry.

The boy's eyes regain their brilliance.

And the question is another.

"What the hell is an adult ritual?

My instinct tells me I have to listen.

"A man's ritual is for a woman close to him to peel off and seed out. If I could just get it out, I'd be alone."

"Okay. When the battle is over, I'll take the ritual as chief."

The shape alone is their leader. Their tradition needs to be cherished.

The next thing I know, I'll hold the girl who said ten.

"You're just a kid, too. Something more important than fighting."

Gently stroke her belly.

"Now take care of your life, raise you well, and have my baby in six years"

"Son of the chief..."

The reddened girl is pulled back by the boy and goes back to the mountains.

That's it, I'm looking forward to six years from now.

Andrei, who was beside me for some reason, is shaking his head vertically saying that's okay too.

Well, there's still a problem.

"We'll fight too."

"Yeah, of course you do. This is... Rafen is... Kikukai's Garden is our paradise, I will never let you take it. Wow!

"The enemies that threaten the restful place we finally found..."

"I'll spin you three chrysanthemums!!

It's Madame Gonzalez, who leads them, as Rafen's first unusual whorehouse, a whore in the Garden of Daisy Blossoms - and I don't want to admit it.

By the way, this whorehouse is where men take men's guests.

All in all, they have a privileged physique and are not old enough to be treated as normal soldiers, but the commanders refused to assign them all.

"I don't know what else to do..."

They have hit type weapons such as Madam-Gonzalez influences or this stick full of morningstars and nails, and they wear thick armor disappointingly. It seems like a tough unit if you just look at it.

"Why are you wearing makeup so thick..."

Bright red lipstick on a dark eyeline, even a hell of a guy with a ribbon inside.

"I have to wear makeup to be ashamed to get out there."

Look in the mirror before you say it. It's easy to worship a king naked if you can walk outside as you are now.

"If you don't wear lipstick, you're not in the mood."

If I give up 10,000 steps and wear lipstick, it is at least thinly wet, sticking out of my lips up and down and my disgust is doubled.

And then I shaved my beard before makeup, and the red lipstick painted over my black-grown beard is just a word.

"This ribbon boyfriend gave it to me. He also fights with Master Hardlett... always with him."

I'm worried my boyfriend is in our army...... will he be okay?

Together, if we see what these guys look like, our enemies may also lose their temper of war.

For some reason, they're all in good physical shape, so they're going to be good for the tour.

"Oho, it's also a woman's job to protect a man's absence!

Claudia shows me no less muscle than that.

Lately she has been wearing shirts with no sleeves in her shorts to show off her flesh.

It's something that's changed radically again. Don't you feel uncomfortable with the face of the Garden of Daisy Blossoms?

But the feeling I had yesterday was pretty good.

It was able to withstand quite a rough motion, so I was able to do all sorts of things without a scratch.

Finally, the most uncomfortable people.

The other guys keep their distance from them, too.

"... please, Porch"

Porch responds with a grunt.

There's screaming from all around... because it's big. The head is much higher than the second floor of the mansion.

How big will it get?

"Tata Cow Tata Cow"

"Textile Daledakke"

"Meshi Meshi Pea"

Herds of harpies stop on Porch's back.

Soon I don't seem to be scared anymore.

Porch was originally a big man, and he's kind in character.

I'll have these guys protect Rafen from the sky if they have to scout.

Nevertheless, the Harpies are so stupid that they rely on Porch and Pippi.

When I shift my gaze, my little hands are full out of the waterway.

It's Mirmi and the kids.

Ask them to guard the waterway. It would be tough if the source of the water bridge was poisoned.

No, the girl who saw the protruding hand got incontinent.

I'm sorry to hear that.

"I don't like fighting, but I'll do my best to protect this place!

When I saw it, Ramey was in the mood by wrapping a bowl roll that said 'Must Win'.

(Neither can I.)

Next door, Casey wraps a bowl roll that says' Corrupt '.

Probably 'undefeated'. Don't go from ghost to zombie.

By the way, they paint the Arlaunes growing by the city walls with fireproof paint.

He said the guards should be slashed down in defense, but they can't possibly do that.

Plus these guys will be pretty useful.

You said, "You can do whatever you want to your enemies that attack the city."

"Then it's time to leave"

I jump on Schwartz. I hear voices.

"Lord, I like this town. It's safe and I don't have any food problems... although taxes are a little high."

Town girl says. Ask Adolf for tax complaints.

"There's no prestigious nobility, and lords are sweet."

Another town daughter says.

"There was no place to go, no land. We the peasants can live here, too. There's no other place to go!

Now the tanned man gives a big voice.

"Me and you, too. Lords are the only ones who embraced us happily."

I even came to Madam-Gonzalez.

You were aware of the kiwa thing. And it's not very pleasant.

"They don't even persecute me like they've done before... they don't even tell me to come over my ass. My ass is always open."

"Hey."

I'll throw you out when I say all the disgusting things.

"Guys, if Rafen's gone, we're in trouble."

"We'll do our best, Lord..."

"Please win"

"You don't have to tell me to win."

Answer briefly and turn your back on the people.

There are also many important women in this town. I'm not going to be taken away from you.

"We win, too. We go back to Rafen."

"Oh, there's someone important here."

The young soldiers who go out are also in the mood.

Myra nods satisfactorily, but I know the truth.

These guys were virgins until yesterday.

The whores cut my virginity for free last night.

There's also a mix of fancy whores who don't get to deal with on the young soldier's salary, and these guys who have had a superb time are in a russian mood.

I won't tell you because Myra will kick your ass if I tell you.

Soldiers and others authorized to seed by retired prostitutes look so harsh that they don't think they're very recruits.

"I'll be a father when this battle is over."

Whoa, good luck with that.

"Master Agil?

"Mm-hmm."

Celia tells me to concentrate on the sight in front of me.

It's time for Zan-Dora to be close.

"Apparently, we got ahead of the enemy. Or is the enemy deliberately delaying the march to destroy us in the field?"

"That's good. If it's a field fight, it's what you want."

A field battle won't be a good way to beat an enemy in numbers.

But most of my territory is on the plains, and every city is not fortified.

In the end, we're going to have to fight.

"If you can intercept here, I have a little prep. It's a bit of a break."

The enemy will come to us soon.

It would be a spectacular battle over Zan-Dora.

"Again."

Fusekurito puts his hand on my cheek.

"You look really good before the fight. Crude and innocent...... so colorful. It's a face."

Veroli and I were licked in the face. Myra and Celia eat at the same time.

I'm not going to enjoy the war.

Just a little.

"I'm just excited"
