Episode 548: The Road Continues to the Kingdom • Battle of Goldonia

Leoporto and Tristan, everyone else even Celia with leaves on the front of her body, looked at me with an eye of condemnation.

Only Myra has her eyes glowing weirdly and nibbling for some reason, but you're going back to this.

"We're done talking"

That's a waste of sentiment.

I laugh when I see Leopold.

"I'm a man who's wasted a lot. Haven't you figured that out yet after a long relationship?

Beat one of your own cheeks.

"I tried to advise you to surrender, but they told me not to be alarmed."

Tristan sighed just as plausibly, Leoporto looked faceless and Celia looked weird trying to be faceless.

I can also hear the drums from the side of the Royal Army.

Time for war.

"The power difference is huge without even having to see it. I don't know how to attack."

Not much time but I would have had some time to think about it.

I'm not saying that I'm within my expectations, but it's not that I don't have a hand.

"Really. If you're totally desperate, you just run away, but it's a bad idea that the possibilities are just a little bit left."

All units change formation with instructions given by Leopold and Tristan.

The Royal Army's movements stopped perfectly as soon as possible.

Looks like Eirich is going to identify this move.

"Are you here to protect me? I can't seem to imitate going into battle."

"There is no danger of detours and breakthroughs in the walls behind victory with force. Then we'll stop and defend ourselves until we know what we're trying to do."

Secrito explains next to me.

I thought you were laughing Niyanya as usual, but the dust also makes a serious face without a grin.

I felt the colour on my perfect trousers, but it doesn't feel like I can stroke them.

"Horizontal formation. Forward according to cannon speed"

Leopold's orders were unexpected.

"Horizontal formation again"

A horizontal formation is literally a formation that spreads horizontally.

The wings are large enough to push the archers' firepower into the air without allowing them to detour.

Spreading on the other hand slows down the speed.

Honestly, the cavalry is not the right formation for the formation of the subject.

"Behind you is the city. You can't break through or detour any path. The enemy is four times larger than this one, but it's a defense-oriented rectangle, so the rear firepower is playing. If you throw all the hindsight forward, at least the projection firepower in the front row is more than equal."

The formation of the Royal Army, led by Eirich, is a rectangular form of guarding the castle gate - to put it a lot.

Heavy, but rear units cannot participate in frontal combat.

"But if that wears out the lead troops..."

I don't even have to worry about Celia pointing it out.

My army stretched horizontally with the longitudinally stretched Royal Army, the only equivalent is really the front row.

There can be no replenishment if there is damage to the troops, and there are no troops tired or replacement personnel.

"I don't mind. If it sucks after the first good fight, and if it sucks from the beginning, you want the former one."

My army slowly packs the distance with the Royal Army, which stands still and waits.

There are a lot of things outside the city walls just outside of Wang capital.

Lending horse barns, small guard stuffs, marutai gathering points, garbage dumps... step over them one by one that are deserted.

I wonder where both armies breathe to trigger the battle.

"Gokuri."

It was at the same time Celia swallowed spit.

The carriage that was towing the field cannon suddenly stops.

Shoot him.

We're in the lead. It was from a distracted decree somewhere in Tristan.

Fifteen battle cannons erupt simultaneously.

Looks like he sprayed smoke in the distance, and the trajectory goes to the Royal Army.

"Shoot me -!"

The 6000 bow cavalry, stopped momentarily late, unleashes arrows simultaneously.

As soon as their arrows leave the strings, fifteen sand smokes rise from the ranks of the Royal Army.

Six thousand arrows descend as the screams and surprises of soldiers intersect.

Of course Eirich can't be assuming an arrow attack.

There was a big shield sitting in the front row.

What was unexpected was the presence of a field cannon and the range of a bow cavalry that could be fired within a minute of the cessation?

The iron bullet released from the field cannon pierces the great shield like paper and knocks down the kingdom soldiers.

The distance between the two armies is full of arrow ranges. On top of that, the arrows seen by the bow cavalry had sufficient precision power.

Only celebrity class archers can do this... which means almost all bow cavalry can do it.

"Second shot - fast. Shooting interval of three seconds...... no, it's close to two seconds"

Secrito leaks more breath.

The bow cavalry shoots in series with the second and third simultaneous shots.

It performs all possible rapid firing on an individual basis rather than simultaneous firing.

It's like a fountain, like a constant arrow popping out of a line.

But if you stare, fewer soldiers have fallen than a different number of arrows.

"Thirty to forty at most can be defeated with fifteen cannons. Arrows may have been unexpected at first too..."

Celia squeaks.

The Royal Army was heavily shielded and defensive to arrows in just about ten seconds.

Whether the falling soldier is alone with a hundred arrows flying. Given the difference in force, it cannot be said to be effective.

I ignore field guns that fly in at long intervals and break through the line.

It's hard to say ignore it in one bite.

For soldiers, it's the last time a shell flies into a dense area.

Ordinary thoughts make me want to lay low and sprinkle.

It solidifies it undisturbed by the commander's orders.

Eirich's command of the Royal Army is definitely stubborn.

Of course now Leoporto's head is not empty enough to run out of measures.

"Thirty seconds from the start of the shooting...... now shoot!!

Then the archers on foot start shooting.

This is not a low level of practice, but it does not extend to bow cavalry, and there are even fewer.

The arrows they fire are much longer than the bow cavalry, making sure to slowly ride in the wind and fly away.

White powder scatters along with the sound of the ceramics smashing when it hits the shield of the Royal Army as it glides.

"Guh!? Hey, what is this? This is my eye..."

"Gee ho! Gee ho!

The Royal Army's defensive platoon is disturbed, and the arrows of a constantly flying bow cavalry begin to defeat the Royal Soldier again.

"Is that lime powder? I can't kill you, but it hurts and I swallow when it gets into my eyes and mouth. Besides, it would be hard to get back in line if you were scattered and had a bad vision."

The operation itself was heard, but it's Leopold, Tristan's skill that determines when the enemy will be dense in preparation for the arrows.

"What's creepy is that the Royal Army doesn't move. It seems like it would be nice to fire."

The performance of the bow used by my army and the Royal Army is very different.

It will be a helo arrow because of the skill problems, but it is not a distance that can be reached at all.

A full-body stripped bow cavalry opponent would do a lot of good.

Or you can push the archers forward.

If we proceed in the rain of arrows, there will be sacrifices, but a few sacrifices should be an unproblematic difference in force.

Well, if the enemy comes forward, just lower the bow cavalry back.

They can retreat while shooting, and they can't pack the distance with walking archers because of their mobility.

Suddenly Secrito fingers the bow cavalry softly and screams at Leoporto.

"Soldiers are excited to be out front on their own! Now lower it!"

A side-by-side bow cavalry was moving a little further.

This is unavoidable.

Ranged shooting doesn't get easy hits for bow cavalry either.

Naturally I would just like to pack a little more distance if I could.

Besides, if the enemy doesn't fight back, Jirijiri and his legs will come forward.

As soon as possible, the movements of the Royal Army changed.

"I crossed the scheduled point. Start fighting back!!

"Archers in position!

"Catapult attack initiated! Put the crossbow on the ear sac and angle it."

A comparable number of arrows fly from the city walls to the bow cavalry.

Dai Arrow flew in with the noise of even wilder winds, putting together a single bow cavalry and smashing it through.

Furthermore, numerous stone bullets fly in from within the city walls.

I guess there was a skewed line of catapults inside.

The arrows released from the city walls filled the difference in height and reached the bow cavalry, and the arrows and stone bullets even jumped over the Yuyu bow cavalry.

"Eirich will do it, too. You've been waiting for us to get close to this position since the beginning."

Without a siege weapon, we have no means to fight back inside the city walls.

This is your turn to get shot unilaterally, as opposed to the first one?

I'm guessing this one was in the catapult range from the start of the shooting.

But if you shoot soon, the bow cavalry will quickly escape.

But if we get this far in time, there will be a lot of damage while we flip back.

Eirich knows both the field artillery and the strength of the bow cavalry.

Looks like they lured this one into seeing the damage just expand even if we shoot each other in the stretch.

The royal army whispers as it waited.

Archers and infantry began advancing together.

There is no rush when I look at Leoporto.

I don't know from his expression, so I look at Tristan.

"Not good. Very bad. You're hit."

Looks fine.

"Proceed or pull!?

Secrito asks me in strong condition.

I tweak Schwartz's reins and then scream with a voice that reaches all around me.

Forward, further forward.

Leoporto and Tristan seem to know too. Repeat the order.

Pack the distance as they pour arrows over each other's heads.

Shootouts from a distance move into a mid-range battle.

"Catapults can hardly change their aim even when their enemies move. It's hard to change your aim in a direction close to your allies because of the huge amount of brakes you're aiming at."

The arrows from the city walls... well, I just have to meditate my eyes and move on.

"Switch to steel arrows - shoot!!

A bow cavalry shoots an arrow again.

Now fly horizontally toward the front, not the way you shoot large, parabolic.

A series of small screams, kingdom soldiers with their shields on, or those in heavy armor, fall as-is.

It's a metal arrow that doesn't have wings to catch the wind.

I don't even ride the wind heavily, so I don't have a range, but I can't prevent it with semi-productive shields or armor.

"Start throwing!!

"Ooh, throw, throw!!

"Haha!! I'm good at this stuff!

When the distance is clogged this far, the infantry throws throws also arrive.

While the 105th soldier's infantry guards against arrows with a shield, he also throws a mixture of spears, stones, and occasionally gunpowdered roasting and lime, trying to break the enemy formation.

A powerful arrow unleashed by a bow cavalry cannot be prevented merely by pointing a shield at one hassle.

And if you try to prevent it densely, you are thrown like a throw packed with special gunpowder was targeted.

"I will push and win!

As Celia said, the avant-garde of the Royal Army couldn't help but collapse.

"Avant-garde change! Back off -!!"

Cheers come mainly from the 105th Corps.

"Alright, I won!

"Even if it's four times more, it's not our enemy!

"I'll put up a fight for you all at once!

Leoporto shouted uncommonly at soldiers gaining momentum.

"Stop, defensive posture!

105 soldiers leaking dissatisfaction.

My eyes are blurry. Most of them lay down their shields on their knees, but some soldiers are slashed by kingdom soldiers fleeing with bodies they could not hear.

It was when the chasing allies cut down several kingdom soldiers.

"Expand left and right!

When the fleeing soldier cracks to the left or right, a lineup of nearly a thousand crossbow soldiers appears.

Everything is played in unison, and the soldier in an inadvertent pursuit can't help but bolt all over his body to despair.

"Start Forward"

An escaping enemy soldier gathers in front of a crossbow soldier and advances with his shield in place.

"Open it!"

Defend the slow loading crossbow prep time with a shield, and when it's done, crack left and right and fire simultaneously.

Range is short, but it cannot be prevented by armor and shields to the extent of light infantry or bow cavalry.

Now we start to retreat.

Leoporto sends his gaze.

I know. Just do it.

"Open it!"

When he attempts to simulate the crossbow again, the field cannon takes aim.

But the opponent doesn't respond.

I guess I'm about as prepared for the damage caused by the fifteen guns as I was at the beginning.

"But how about this?

Lighter gunfire than the first.

Countless shotguns were scattered from the cannons, and crossbow soldiers with no protection were knocked down in unison.

The infantry rushed into the cover but the damage should be immense.

"Oh, don't be scared! Now it's time to get out of here! I'll kick your ass!!

Yarkov yells, 105 soldiers start moving forward again, and a havoc crossbow unit goes down.

Another field artillery strike switched the offense.

Distance clogs as they push and pull each other.

Finally, the arrows stopped flying from the archers on the city wall.

You are afraid of misfiring at your allies.

The bow cavalry hasn't been able to shoot as well as some celebrities think.

Horizontal shooting is when an ally enters the ray and repeats an inaccurate shooting in the direction of the enemy formation in the mountains.

"It's about time"

It was when I tried to raise my hand.

"Assault -!!"

Is it Agor who seemed far away?

The sword is waved down and a grand trumpet is blown at the same time, and the Royal Army launches a total attack.

"Yeah, five seconds late! How dare you show me..."

"I thought we'd be on guard, but you came all of a sudden. No, you were after this one right before the attack... it's been read."

Was Secrito unexpected, too, tongue-beating?

The troops on the front drop their heavy weaponry and quickly fall back, with a full health hindsight storming from behind.

"What are you tired of? We're intercepting! Step forward."

Yarkov desperately scolds 105 soldiers, and Luna also lines up a bow cavalry who shouts in a harsh tone and breathes on his shoulders.

Horizontal shooting begins, but the shooting speed had fallen to less than the first half due to fatigue.

"Your first guard was an outpost aimed at this exhaustion. It's our destiny now."

"The soldiers are already moving dull. If we clash properly, we won't have it!

I don't have to tell Celia and Secrito to turn the field cannon to the front when Tristan put it back.

If you put a shotgun in front of an enemy soldier thrusting in momentum, you can get a full grip.

A few seconds before the same careless decree, the front row of Kingdom soldiers lay a strange shield like a bundle.

"Shoot."

Shotguns strike with gunfire.

Countless little iron grains envelop the kingdom soldiers...... should have been.

"Prevented!?

Celia gives a tall voice.

The cylindrical shield had been shattered, but the soldiers had not fallen.

Of course he's alive and well back there.

"Sand...?

The sand was falling apart from the broken shield.

Shots fired with field cannons are less powerful.

Even so, it is not a substitute that can be prevented by coarse armor or shields.

If you want to prevent it, you'll need a very thick shield.

I didn't expect to prevent it with such an on-the-spot shield......

"The other guy understands the shotgun. When sanded into a wooden barrel, small iron bullets and pieces of iron immediately lose their power. Besides, if it's a simple structure that binds the cylinders and puts sand in them -"

A wooden barrel shield was lifted from every part of the Royal Army's position so that the words of Secrito could be uttered.

Now the field cannons have lost half their use.

Tristan dropped the cannon early and came back to the main unit.

Field artillery is powerless and clashes directly from the front.

There's a little more frontal power than this one... about 1.5 times more.

Unlike this one, which will still be a series of fights, the enemy has never been exposed to arrows and is waiting in the rear.

The difference immediately appears.

Less than a few minutes after the clash, 105 soldiers began to fall.

"Too many enemies!!

"This one's tired of a series of fights! This is against the rules!!

It's as usual to throw up evil, but after a few minutes, complaining is exhausted, just retreating being pushed away.

Finally, at a bad time, the bow cavalry pushes his tired body forward.

- A kingdom knight came out with only a great shield against it.

They thoroughly seal the motion around the bow cavalry while guarding the arrows.

Bow cavalry can fight with swords even in melee battles, but some have a small stature and the skill of the White Soldier Battle is not as astonishing as saying.

You can't kick a heavily defended opponent all at once, and you don't have time to use a bow.

Then a chariot led by Myra pops up.

Defeat the enemy soldiers with a large crossbow and tear them apart with the blade of the wheel.

- Pathways are limited by countless obstacles, simple movements are read and heavy chains and leather strings are thrown to stop one, one and the other.

The cavalry led by Irijina storms.

- The long spear squad of the Royal Army is sufficiently skilled.

A thousand or so cavalry troops are sealed in front of the blade grove and driven around in reverse.

"Royal Army cavalry units out of the west and east gates! Both are 2,000 scale - coming around left and right at the same time!!

Naturally, the army of the Royal Army also has cavalry units.

It must have been in this blind castle waiting for an opportunity that didn't show up until now.

"This is the horizontal formation of the Perapella! If they turn around beside you or behind you, it's over!!

The nose of Celia, who wolves and pulls out his sword, is snapped, and Secrito leads the carriage troops to the right-wing side.

"Even if Mr. Secrito is successfully stopped, he no longer has reserve power. I can't stop the left wing!!

A cavalry of the Royal Army jumps into the flank of a rampant bow cavalry and an inferior 105th legion.

There is no force on the ground that can already be combated.

"This is settled."

Was it Cedric who barked or one of the commanders he didn't even know about?

A high sound gathers the consciousness of the soldiers.

It was a beautiful sound like a whistle, unlike arrows and stone bullets.

"" "Yikes!!

Something falls in the middle of the kingdom cavalry, and a few around fall into flames with every horse.

"Hey, what! Something's falling!

"It was huge! Catapult...... no such thing nowhere!

When the kingdom soldiers who looked around left and right shouted, the same thing would now fall at the same time as five shots.

Precisely towards the cavalry that storms, too. It is not a craftsman that can be made into a catapult.

"Where! Where are you shooting from!

The cavalry's leg stops in an unknown attack.

"Not to the right or to the left...... no wait......"

One cavalry points its finger straight up.

"Up there! Empty -!!"

Fifty harpies were grabbing a sparked pot and swirling through the battlefield sky.

Even higher places have shadows as huge as the wrong sense of distance.

"Aerial units have arrived!

"That was critical."

"Pee! Cuckoo Kabakugeki!

"Siloitas kimakareta!"

"Halahetta! Mesi!

"Nankakusai"

The harpies sound disorderly and softly, but do not disturb their movements, while simultaneously plunging down and pounding on pots filled with gunpowder and oil.

The Kingdom Cavalry began to wolf visibly.

"From the top!? Aim in the crossbow!

"Don't be silly! If it comes off, it's gonna fall over my head!

"You can't storm in this situation! Back off, back off once!

Humans can deal adequately with the previous enemy.

If you build up your workouts, you will be able to handle them from left to right and from behind if you reach the realm of masters.

But not up there.

Any master of swords will eat the hun of a pigeon falling into the brain.

Being targeted from the top is more pressure than being surrounded by all sides if you do poorly.

I would be very incapable of continuing the attack, etc.

"Even if I could continue."

A red shadow crosses the battlefield.

One m is a claw chooses the ground for each kingdom soldier, and it rises again.

Porch struck a horse several times faster than he could fly.

By the way, it says' evil 'in Pipi's hand on his forehead, and now he's an evil dragon...... no, he's an evil lizard.

"The left-wing cavalry is retreating! The right wing is...... Mr. Secrito is pushing back! I'm on a carriage and I'm spraying fire!

So you're using the prosthetic function.

The way Celia says it now, it looks like she sprayed fire out of her mouth.

Attach to the pouch where the harpies raised altitude after the throw.

Then Pipi, who was on the pouch, lets the harpies have the next pot, points to the next goal, and then releases it into the sky.

Harpy's retarded, so I'm gonna tell him every single time, or I'm gonna forget about it and go home.

"Re-attack."

The next target is the front of the enemy pushing the 105th Corps.

"The enemy is retreating... it appears to assemble in front of the castle gate. I'm taking a circular formation, but it's weird! That arrangement is strange!

Celia's right.

It is common for regular circular defenses to put long spears on the outermost side to stop the cavalry, while arranging infantry between the spears to consolidate their defense with shields, and then distributing crossbows behind them, plus archers behind them, to allow them to cover.

But that formation has archers lined the outermost, gathering cavalry and long spears in the middle.

Secrito screams.

"It's a deformed defense team with a bow outside! We're going to intercept both Harpies!

"I gathered a cavalry in the center that was useless to my empty opponent and came after me with a bow at the same time..."

Celia also tries to guess and tell Harpy, but she's at an altitude and she can't reach it.

"Nagainonerau! Tatennerau!

"Umanerau!"

I guess Pipi told me to target the infantry and the cavalry.

The Harpies go straight to the center of the defense.

With their heads, they can't see the formation and perceive the danger.

"You don't have to aim. Bulbs on one side of the sky."

Kingdom soldiers squeeze their bows.

I kick Schwartz in the stomach and pop out.

Harpy is one of the trump cards, losing it here fades the winning chance.

At the same time, some of those guys made me lay even eggs because I was cute. I can't do what I'm looking at when I know I'm gonna get hit.

"Continue to Master Agil!

Celia leads the convoy forward.

Only they were put in my protection, so they're still physically adequate.

Breathe in for the timing of Harpy's sudden descent as he runs in Schwartz.

――――

I give you a roar that sounds from the bottom of my belly.

The escort and Celia's horse stand, the allied soldiers look back, and even the kingdom soldiers on the city wall gaze this way.

Schwartz then knocked his ears to the limit and stared at them.

"" "Pee!!

All harpies surprise, throwing down the pot and raising altitude all at once.

At the same time, thousands of arrows had struck the space where they would have been, releasing up to countless great crossbows.

How many of them would have survived if they had stayed that way?

I've accomplished my purpose. I'll stop.

Not the result you wanted, but you've drawn the attention of all the enemy allies.

"The Admiral has come forward... okay?"

"Oh, don't make up your mind here"

An allied soldier looks at each other, slaps him in the tired face and punches him in the mood.

"The Warrior Hardlet...... right. He couldn't have come out with his own rebellion."

"He who now bows to the kingdom. Only to perish in the name of the Military Director and His Majesty!

"Gu... I can't get my goosebumps to subside." For the old conscripts since the Arkland War "? That's why it's decided! The more ancient you are, the more you know about Lord Hardlett's horrors!!

Enemy soldiers have no heart behind them.

"Apparently, this is the way to go."

I signal Leopold with my eyes.

"I've heard so many other things."

None of this is going to be a decision hit on Eirich opponents.

Whether you're dodgy or trapped, you'll be dealt with immediately.

Time passes with every single separation, and the soldiers are tired.

This could be our last chance to make a decent assault.

"There are only breakthroughs with force moves. It looks like this is what happens to me after all."

What a pleasure, though I feel completely sorry for you.

I hold the dual crater with my right hand once I raise it high.

Turn Keravnos a few degrees and then hold it with your left hand.

And cry out to Leopold, Tristan, and Yarkov, to all.

"Continue with me. Total Assault - Begin!

Schwartz and I ran into the black wind.
