Episode 189

The Dniesk family, Prince Ivan, embarked on the lords of North Rolmund and began his march with a surge of power.

"His Highness, this is dangerous. Evacuate Noviesk Castle."

Deputy Bolsh, who returned from his base, Noviesk Castle, advised him, but Eleora shook his head.

"I have nothing to do with this assassination. I should stay here to stick to that position."

She has a point and she is impressed by her courage, but the capital is still dangerous.

Prince Ivan would regard the Eleanorists as enemies, so it would be dangerous if rebels from North Lorumund rush into the imperial capital.

"Eleora, leave the defense here to the werewolf squad. With you, your servants will not be able to escape."

Elora is a little worried about my words.

"That's true, but ..."

"Now there's not much snow yet. You'll return to East Lolmund to collect troops with Sir Kastoniev."

It's only natural for Eleora to return to her castle, leaving me, as I'm considered Eliola's adjutant position.

"I'm also a diplomat in Miraraldia. Prince Ivan wouldn't let me out."

If you pick it up, the wolf squad will only transform and rampage.

Here it is just good for us to fight. The enclosed space is more suitable for surprise attacks of werewolf than the open space.

And everyone will want to rampage soon.

Despite my words, Deputy Bolsh comes in.

"That's exactly what Lord Waight says. Your Highness, let's set up your soldiers at Noviesk Castle. Whether you work with either faction or fight as a third party, a united soldier is essential."

"... I see. You're right."

Eleora nodded and declared:

"Return servants home and seek evacuees to Noviesk Castle."

We decided to leave the guard on the way to the older female wolves. If she looks like an aunt, she will be less vigilant, and Eleora will not be nervous.

The captain is Mary Mary.

"After the escort, I rested in Noviesk Castle for a while. Mary, cold, wasn't she?"

"Oh, you're also attentive to the Weid. You'll do something with us, so you're not going to die?"

I guess I shouldn't stroke my head ...

Older wolves are all troubled because they treat me as a child.

By the way, do you like yourself because Eleora is gone?

I rent a kitchen at Eleora's house, stew vegetables and bacon in sauce, and think about the future.

"According to the Hammam squad, Prince Ivan's younger brother, Prince Warroy, is at the castle on Lake Kleich, a branch in Northern Lorumund.

I explained, as we all cooked up the stew-like mysterious dish.

"Kleich Lake Castle is, as the name suggests, a castle on the lake. It seems that the surface of the lake is frozen at this time, but the defense is still strong."

I get a replacement from Fern-Sister while showing a map with a spoon.

"Prince Ivan's son, Prince Ruinier, is going further north, apparently in his home town of Dniesk. Probably at the impregnable Castle, Kinjar Castle."

I know this is Yamashiro, but the details are unknown.

"In the foreseeable future, Prince Ivan's offensive will continue, because Prince Ashley is not ready for war."

The werewolf nods like "Hmm".

Since everyone is an amateur about war, it seems that he does not understand the battle on the map.

Jerikh asked me a question as he was eating a stew.

"Oh, General, when will we fight?"

"What if one faction calls out? Wouldn't it be strange to sell yourself?"

Ideally, it would be nice to have a dash of relief where Prince Ashley was cornered.

It's also good to make both muddy as it is and to exhaust both.

It's probably not too much for Rolmund's soldiers, but I can't say anything beautiful here because of the peace of Milardia

"Either way, there's nothing wrong with Elora's failure to recruit soldiers. The battles of Rolmund are in thousands, so we can't just turn the war on with a werewolf squad alone."

It will take a few more days for the battle to become clear.

It seems that the army of North Rolmund, led by Prince Ivan, is dispatching troops from heavy snowfall areas, so it is taking time to advance.

It seems that Prince Ashley's West Rolmund's army is not ready, so he is full of defense preparations.

During that time, it seems that Prince Ashley has sent messengers for negotiations many times, but both Prince Ivan and Prince Warroy seem to have refused.

Before the full-fledged war begins, Lord Rekomya gathers the Eleanorish palaces.

"A great opportunity to gain territory, you guys."

I floated the evil smile that I had practiced in front of the mirror until just before and fired them.

"If the rebellion is suppressed, the territory of the rebels will be confiscated. When choosing a replacement lord, the first candidate to be a candidate is the one who has succeeded in suppressing the rebellion."

Everyone wanted to gain territory and make the family feel comfortable, so their eyes glistened.

That's good.

Sir Pety asks a questioning face.

"On the contrary, what should I do if Ivan succeeded in taking His Imperial Throne?"

"At that time, the Origen and Kastniev, led by Princess Eleora, will destroy the usurper, replacing Prince Ashley's Schwerin family."

There is a cause.

Ability is ... a little bit short.

The size of the rebels is unknown, but it's no wonder that the rulers in northern Lorumund are all on the side. Since the farm is off, free people can recruit as much as they want.

"Well, it's easier to quell the rebellion. Prince Ashley's army is on his side."

"Certainly, let's prepare for the battle in a hurry.

Sir Pety nodding. The story is quick and helpful.

The Lomundo palaces have few soldiers and no territory, but as a noble they learn minimal equestrian and tactics. The quality is different from the free people there.

In the meantime, Prince Warroy was heading south, led by an allied army of Northern Lorumund, as the vanguard of Prince Ivan.

The number is about 40,000. It appears that the Imperial Army's northern army has joined.

The army of Prince Ashley who intercepts is 30,000. It is a mixture of the allied forces of West Lorumund, the Imperial Guards and Imperial Guards, and the Knights of the Huyin Church.

On both sides, the number of troops that can be mobilized is still likely to be affordable.

It seems that Prince Warroy continued to invade with the smashing force and surrendered some Ashley lords. The imperial capital is approaching.

But I decided to stay at Milaldia's diplomat and relax at Eleora's house.

The lieutenants of Borsh come from Noviesk Castle as liaisons, so they have to train the palaces in the meantime.

"Now, the next exercise. The strategy of sieging this mountaintop castle is the same as before, but the state of the castle and other aspects of the castle are unknown. What should you do first?"

When asked by Bolsch, the young nobles staring at the map looked serious. It's not surprising that parents and children are older than others.

"Hmm ... the basics would be reconnaissance."

"Yes, how do you do it?"

"How about sending troops to the summit?"

Bolsh shook his head.

"Sure, you need it, but there are better ways to do it, so let's do that first."

He showed the river at the foot of the mountain on the map.

"We will place guards on this river. Yamashiro has a challenge to secure water and may draw water from nearby rivers if wells are in short supply. I can guess the number of people, hopefully we can block the waters or catch and interrogate the enemy soldiers. ''

"Yes, water ..."

"Borsch, can you melt the snow and cover the water in winter, even if you block the water?"

Responding to a noble question, Borsch answers:

"The amount of water you get from melting snow is not as large as it looks, and it consumes valuable winter fuel."

"So that's it"

"Surely fuel is also an important material."

"I wasn't aware of the value of water and fuel ..."

Noblemen taking notes. If you are in town, you can use as much well water, firewood and charcoal as you like. I was the same before reincarnation.

When I was in a hidden village, I picked up firewood in the sea of trees, broke it with a hatchet, and dried it under the eaves for months ... it was really hard.

Anyway, they have no experience of serving the palaces, but unlike the common people, they are good commanders because they have the basics.

The rest is the soldiers they lead. This can only be expected of Eleora and Sir Kastoniev, but I have been a bit impatient.

If things are right now, the first battle will probably take place within a few days.

It's a little bit more to be a bystander.
