Price of Management

Like that bookshelf being beaten by a catapult.

Kuang ― Kujic!

Another rock strikes, and you hear the sound of a tree splitting in the wooden ledge.

It sounds a little hard to hear on a battlefield full of screams and shouts, but it sounds like thunder in Bautel's ears. Barcelona realizes that the woodwork will soon be destroyed.

“Shields and heavy infantry battle stations! ”

The Royal Special Forces shield and infantry troops assemble as soon as the order of the Duke of Bautel is issued. When the scaffolding is broken, it will serve as a filling for their breach.

Kwajic!

The rocks flying the catapult strike the wooden table once again. Now, anyone could see that the bindings were in imminent danger.

A new movement was also seen on the side of the Royal Air Force. With the spearmen converging in formation, they are ready to charge when the wooden fence is broken.

In the midst of a new battle, two catapults on the hill again fire rocks.

Two boulders fly in a threatening parabolic ship, striking each other on a ledge.

Woohoo! I'm out!

The bookshelf rumbles with a loud noise.

“Huh?"

“Tsk, I'm going down! ”

“Prepare!”

“Oh, fuck! Hang in there! ”

You make a commotion, looking at the collapse of the two factions. Eventually, the table of contents collapsed with a loud noise. As the logs of the wooden barracks roll, orders are issued from both factions.

“Charge!”

“Stop him!”

The screams of soldiers.

The Ligand Territory's shields fill the gaps in the rapidly collapsed cardboard. The scrum of the shield overlaid one another seems to be a bookshelf.

However, the vigor of the Rompel Air Force spearers, who were shouting at the top of their spears with their spears raised sharply, was not particularly fierce.

Both sides collided.

Pupperfuck! Papak!

The spear and shield collide.

The spear flicks away, unable to pierce the shield. But from then on, it was the beginning of a fierce fight.

“Push!”

“Make a hole! ”

The spearmen of the Romphel Air Force stand up their spears and push them together. Constructing a tight wall, the Ligand Territory Shield lowers its stance and holds its position to avoid being pushed out. A massive manoeuvre pushed out and pushed up a workshop.

Phew!

“Knng!”

A spear pierces through the gap in the shield, stabbing one of the Ligand Territory's shield guards. The shield slumps and bleeds to death. Then the shield behind you fills the gaps between your comrades. The other shields draw the bodies of the dead comrades out of battle.

But the battle grew increasingly inferior to the Ligand territory.

The shields have secured the breach in the collapsed wooden fence, but elsewhere, the Horn Imperium raiders are still attacking the entire sector of the first fortress.

Before that, it was a Ligand territory that had been struggling, but when one of the barricades collapsed, the atmosphere was agitated and the Horn Empire immediately began to be pushed back by the overwhelming volume of aggression.

In fact, it was the organizational strength and determination of the Ligand Territory that was able to withstand the aggression of the Royal Air Force. When I was shaken mentally, my combat strength was shaken as well.

“That's far enough.”

Baron Bautel groans.

The Grand Duke Rompel forces have been attacking more intensely once they've been roused.

There won't be many troops and stamina spent raiding fortresses in rugged mountains, either. Instead, I saw that the end of the fight was stronger, so I thought it was very prestigious.

The Bautel sniffer sends a distress signal.

“Fall back!"

Peek-a-boo!

Peek...

A shout of retreat echoes through the air. In Stronghold 1, the Ligand Territory has begun retreat.

The alliance of the Ligand Territories retreated, occupied by the raiders of the Rompel Air Force, and within the fortress, the Horn Empire was pushed like a slave.

“Open the door! ”

The assailant enters the first fortress and opens the door first. The assailant's priority was to open the gates and allow his allies in.

With the door wide open, the strength of the Royal Air Force became unstoppable.

The best thing for the Ligand Territory to do is to chase the enemy out of the fortress in an orderly fashion.

“Occupied!”

“I won!”

The shout of the Royal Air Force echoes.

* * *

“Oh, you win. ”

Duke Romfel responds to the loud cheers of his allies heard at the keep.

The parched bird nods.

“I'm glad I captured it sooner than I expected. I almost got my ankle caught in this place. ”

“Yes. The terrain was so rough that I almost died. They've built quite a fortress. I've suffered for 70,000 troops in a wooden fortress. ”

Duke Romfel tapped the spine of the dried bird.

“Your balls were big. Thanks to the tactics we put in the catapult, we were able to outrun our expectations. ”

“I appreciate the compliment, but the fight isn't over yet. The enemy hasn't taken out everything they've prepared yet. ”

“I was guessing I wouldn't be, but you're sure it's Yonker. ”

“First, they retreated to the right timing with minimal troop losses. We can't show that kind of orderly behavior without a plan to fight back and fight back here. ”

“Oh, what's the second? ”

“Earl Basque Kunt and Earl Rick Fernando were not active. ”

“Oh, right. If this were the divergence point of the battle, they'd show up and battle me. I've had a light fight with them not long ago, but they weren't scared and hiding from me. ”

“…… You're amazing, Grand Duke. ”

The dried tinkling felt a jolt.

... are not the ones who will hide and be afraid.

Let's take a look at the meaning of this verse. This implies that Duke Rompel has demonstrated overwhelming authority over two people's error masters. Against the Ordain Master who has gained all the wisdom of Pagoda, it can also be overwhelmed by fighting two people. Is that a feat possible for Humankind?

“Regardless, the Ligand Territory will continue to respond differently. There could be many fortresses like this. ”

“Are there more of these fortresses? ”

“With a competent architect and a wooden fortress easily accessible nearby, it's not strange to build one or two more in an hour. ”

“Ewing, the king must have started marching by now, but I'm worried he'll be able to join us on time. ”

“There's no rush. Every time an obstacle appears, we move in step-by-step. Allies are currently battling at a faster rate than expected. ”

The Royal Air Force has entered Stronghold 1. Duke Romfel and the dried bird have also entered the fortress.

The soldiers searched the fort to see if there were any munitions left behind by the enemy. After a while, of course, when he heard that there was nothing to use, such as food or weapons, he had to kick his tongue.

“Those guys are nasty. ”

But that's when it happened.

“I smell burning. ”

It was a quote from Duke Romfel.

“Old?”

The dried bird was surprised and asked again. And…….

Boom, boom, boom!

Glug glug...

There's a thunderstorm going on all over the fortress, and there's a raging flame.

“Ow!”

“Boo, it's fire! ”

“They set the fire! ”

The soldiers of the Royal Air Force scream. Flames were rising from all sides of the northeast, southwest, and northwest.

“Fire system?! No way!”

The dried bird screams.

If the terrain could use a pyramid, the dried bird would have used it first.

I met a fortress that is difficult to attack in the dense mountain topography, and its fortress is built with timber. Any commander would have thought of the system.

However, the dried bird, considering both the terrain and the breeze, suggested that if the fire ignited the allies could also do damage together. If the fire system is damaging to both sides, it was a loss to the Royal Air Force, which has limited mobility due to its many troops.

Even so, the Ligand Territory could not be harmed in the event of a large forest fire.

“Are they going to die together?! ”

The dried bird is furious.

“We'll have to retreat the soldiers first. ”

“Oh, yes! ”

The dried manuscript orders you to leave the keep immediately. However, the fire is rapidly raising the bulk of the fortress as the enemy attempts to do something about it. The Horn Imperial forces entering the fortress were surrounded by flames.
