"Our battle force is 1200 for the Infantry Corps and 24000 for both Bulgarons and Medium Cavalry (Catafract) rides. I just wanted to say that there are actually vacancies, so it's about 3000."

Erkühl explains to Oscar and Alicia the current strength of his own army.

Naturally, we both know that.

This is just a prerequisite.

"And enemy forces, according to reports from reconnaissance units, have 1,400 cavalry. There are two types of infantry: light infantry and heavy infantry, totaling 36000 with 21000 light infantry and 15000 heavy infantry. Altogether about 5000"

The Cavalry of the Kingdom of Cerda is lighter than the Medium Cavalry (Catafract) and heavier than the Bulgaron Cavalry… classified as belonging to the Light Cavalry.

Among the infantry, the light infantry is an attack by projectile weapons such as spears, stones, bows and arrows and a soldier who performs melee battles using swords, while the heavy infantry is armed with short spears and shields.

There is no infantry unit in the Lemurian Imperial Army that carries out attacks by projectile weapons, such as deserves the light infantry of the Royal Cerda Army… but there is a Bulgaron cavalry, a bow cavalry.

The Lemurian Imperial Army is overwhelmingly superior in cavalry power...

The Kingdom of Cerda, on the other hand, has a wealth of infantry power.

"Well, if there's a clear difference in power due to military science so far... the tactics this one employs are decided. You don't have to tell me, you know?

When Elquille said so, Alicia and Oscar nodded.

Behind their brains, a royal tactic comes to mind.

"Then… provide an overview of the operation"

Elquille instructed Alicia and Oscar, and the other generals, to form and operate.

Alicia and Oscar muttered in a small voice when they heard it.

"... I don't know that."

"Isn't it?"

Erkühl flaunted his shoulders against those two.

"You guys just assumed that on your own, didn't you?

I smiled with a nigga.

Meanwhile, General Carmine of the Royal Chelda Army considers the difference between enemy and self-defense forces...

Crush.

"Undoubtedly, Emperor Lemuria will come after the siege by both wings"

They are overwhelmingly superior in cavalry power.

I have no hand in not doing it.

Infantry strength, which would be responsible for the centre of the Lemurian army, is certainly far inferior in number to that of the Royal Cerda Army...

But the infantry of the Lemurian Imperial Army is famous for its strength.

"You should be aware... of the cavalry unit of the Bulgarians. I hear they are a nomadic tribe and their combat skills are extremely high... they would be far superior to the cavalry of our country"

If the forces of both wings are hit properly, the defeat is visible.

Cavalry alone would be very unable to support both wings.

"Stretch the infantry unit thinly...... no, that's not enough. Stand by for light infantry backwards, sending strength to both wings from time to time, and maintaining the front. That's all I have."

If the Lemurian army seems to show exhaustion, we just need to make a central breakthrough.

You don't have to attack me.

Sooner or later, reinforcements will come.

What should be in a hurry is the Lemurian army isolated among the enemies, not the Royal Cerda army.

Time is on the side of the Kingdom of Cerda.

The two armies faced each other in the vicinity of the city of Teripol.

The formation of the two armies is as follows:

Infantry Corps Commander...... Oscar Almon

Right-wing Cavalry Squad Commander...... Alicia Krom

Central Commander-in-Chief...... Erkühl

Total troop strength is about 3300 (one battalion 1200 with one symbol. However, the march has resulted in about 3000 vacancies, which is actually less than 1200)

* - Symbols mean they are spread thinly.

"Hmmm... have you still kept light infantry warm to compensate for the strength of both wings? Well, good. That much reinforcement, let's smash it to look like it. Start Attack by Cavalry Squad!!

Erkühl gave instructions to the cavalry units on the front line.

The warring end was initiated by an assault by a cavalry unit of the Lemurian Imperial Army.

Raise the dirt and dust, and the cavalry of the Lemurian Empire will launch a simultaneous assault.

"Shit, it's still from the cavalry unit at first... prevent cavalry attacks! Forward!"

Carmine moves the troops in a way that corresponds to this.

Double-wing cavalry units and light infantry units begin to advance.

"Show His Majesty the martial arts of our Bulgarians! Ride, go!!

On the right wing, Alicia's decree launched a projectile attack by the Bulgaron cavalry.

At the same time, the Medium Cavalry (Cataphruct) also unleashes defeat and arrows on the Bulgaron Cavalry.

One arrow after another is released from the composite bow.

Heavy rain of arrows pours on the cavalry of the Royal Cherda Army.

They put up a circular skin shield to prevent the arrows... but they could not prevent the rain of those tremendous arrows, and they fell one horse after another.

The same thing was happening not only on the right wing, but also on the left wing side, and... in the center.

In the center, the light infantry releases arrows diligently, throwing stones and spears...

It had been pushed by an onslaught by a bow cavalry that was far more capable of range and manoeuvre than that.

"Damn, enemy attacks are too intense to fight back!

"Arrows stab too hard, shields don't become objects of use..."

"Is this the Bow Cavalry of the Bulgarons! Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. You cowards!!

Upon finishing shooting the obvious arrow, the double-wing cavalry units began their assault.

The Medium Cavalry (Catafract) spears the Short Spear, and the Bulgaron Cavalry unleashes the Sabel and begins its onslaught.

"Die!"

Only Alicia calls on one, the 'Leraj' of the Covenant Spirit, to continue the attack by the bow.

It is the high-ranking samurai who are targeted.

Probably, commanders and other high-ranking samurai dress prominently, making it very easy to understand.

Alicia's arrows drive her enemies to death, even if they have just been plundered, a special demon bow.

There is no way to prevent Alicia's arrows from the cavalry of the Royal Cerda Army, who lost their shields as a result of the shooting attacks by both the Bulgaron Cavalry and the Medium Cavalry (Catafract).

"The kingdom of Cerda, the Beasts (Warbeasts) are brave. The more commanders fight on the front lines... well thanks to you, you can go for it all you want."

Alicia smiles niggardly and shoots the senior samurai of the Kingdom of Cerda one after the other.

Meanwhile, when the Bulgaron cavalry, which kicked the light infantry in the center, finished shooting arrows, they headed to reinforcements on both wings, as previously instructed.

And as if to fill the center where the Bulgaron cavalry is gone, the infantry unit of the Lemurian Empire slowly begins to advance.

"Again, the enemy's aim is these two wings! Light Infantry Squad, Heavy Infantry Squad, Proceed!

Carmine also moves the army to accommodate the movement of the Lemurian Imperial Army.

And furthermore, he puts into both wings a new Lemurian Imperial cavalry, or light infantry unit, which he held back to counter the reinforcements of the Bulgaron cavalry.

But still, the double-wing cavalry and light infantry units of the Kingdom of Cerda are pushed by the onslaught of cavalry on the part of the Lemurian Empire, which is superior in quality and quantity.

Especially the onslaught on the right wing of Lemuria, commanded by Alicia, slowly pushes in and tries to besiege the left-wing cavalry of the Kingdom of Cerda.

Further... Erkühr puts some of the cavalry cavalry (catafract) in the center into the left wing.

Alicia's onslaught on the right wing and the introduction of a new medium cavalry (catafract) on the left flank…

Both wings of the kingdom of Cerda slowly begin to collapse.

Also the infantry of the Lemurian army led by Oscar...

Despite his numerical disadvantages, he had fiercely attacked the infantry of the Kingdom of Cerda.

Regardless of the light infantry that carries out melee battles with the sword, the heavily armed infantry of the Kingdom of Cerda, who cannot have very long spears in relation to having shields, is no match for the infantry of the Lemurian Empire armed with Hulbert or Pike in frontal battles.

Exactly. Sometimes the Royal Cerda Army is superior in numbers, and the center doesn't show any signs of collapse...

Still, they were pushing me in a lot.

"I can't believe the Lemurian cavalry has been so strong... after all, the enemy's aim is due to a double-wing siege, an end to the siege? I'm opening the center to direct this force to the center... but it's not going to happen! We know what the enemy is after. You don't have to bother to set him up!

Carmine sends all the light infantry he left as a reserve to both wings.

It partly cracks the central power just in case and reinforces both wings more.

Then...

Is it difficult for the cavalry of the Lemurian Empire just like that to break through both wings so thick?

Slowly diminish momentum...

And the battle conditions on both wings became glued.

Carmine was brilliant and prevented the Lemurian Empire's onslaught.

Carmine stroked her chest down with relief.

And squeal.

"Somehow, you're going to win..."

Meanwhile...... Erkühl shrugged, prevented from attacking both wings.

"I won"
