"At present, there are about 5,000 troops mobilized in the plains where the armies of Peria are gathered."Well, this is a little over four thousand.I want to know how Lord Hendrix intends to fight. "
"Haha, I have a desire to bump into each other from the front and win."This battle may be for food and money from the Perian Empire, but it is also a battle for independence from the Purge City. ”
"You want to prove that you're independent."
“That's right, and I'm sorry to have to answer the question, but how does Lord Barca intend to fight?I do not know the details, but I believe that in the battle against the Glugalia, a new weapon was introduced.Will you use it in this battle? "
"No, it remains deployed on the border with the Glugalia country."You can't use your new weapon against Peria. "
Hendrixen, the commander of the Purge army.
He expressed the idea that winning this battle would allow the city of Purge to be recognized as independent from the Perian Empire.
That in itself is not a problem for the Orient countries either.
Rather, if the Perian nation will not complain that it has the right to govern using the purge family's bloodline, it is of great significance to have it recognize independence.
So we'll hear more about how Hendrixen fights with his army in order to wage such a war of independence.
But I've been told to give you more information than that.
A new weapon would be a large magic bow.
Hendrixen, who has been in Purge City for a long time, doesn't seem to know the details of what it's like.
However, it seems that the Orient Army, which overwhelmed and won the Glugalia Nation, only knew that it had used new weapons in the battle.
Of course, I wanted to use it if I could use it.
However, there is a circumstance that it is not easy to move.
While cutting out a soft magic tree to make a super-large bow, it was a large magic bow that combined magic circles to make a magic tool, but it also had a lot of fine parts.
If any of them were broken, it would be a hindrance.
They may not fire properly, and even if they do, it's possible that the arrows won't fly exactly as they're aiming.
I was in a hurry to take it to the next battlefield, but it wouldn't hurt to break it.
Besides, it was only set up for defense, and it was a little difficult to use in a field like this one.
“Very well. Now, I would like to fight with a barrier tactic.”
"Blocking tactics, okay." So let's do it. "
"... is that okay?" So, I'm afraid this is the end of the plan. ”
"There's nothing wrong with that." Rather, the two armies fight together.I was going to move along with you to some extent, so it's okay. "
"Thank you. I would like to welcome the Perian nation to the Ixelles Plains with a barrier tactic."
A flatland just past Purge Street.
Hendricksen suggested that barrier tactics should be used as a method of fighting.
I decided to get on it, so I quickly decided on a policy.
Bulwark tactics were a recent way of fighting in the east.
The method is very simple.
Each other's armies form up and attack the opponent with arrows.
At that time, I used the [Wall Construction] spell to protect myself.
If you ask this much, you might wonder if it's a method of warfare.
However, it seemed that it would be completely different from the scenery on the battlefield until now.
Bows, spears, and swords were the main weapons used by soldiers in battles on the plains until the advent of those who could use magic.
Releasing arrows from the rear as support, the main unit armed with spears and swords charges at the opposing army and destroys it.
However, this bulwark tactic rarely makes its assault.
In a few cases, I used Wall Construction to create a barrier to shield myself from arrows.
Breakthrough power is reduced to almost nothing, but its defense is very hard.
It would be natural to create a thick wall five meters thick, so that we could defend ourselves and repeat the attack.
Tell me, can we create a shady defensive position where we have no choice but to fight in the field and greet the opponent with depression?
However, this defensive tactic has its drawbacks.
It also dropped its attack power, and if it was surrounded, it would be disadvantageous.
If the opponent has a powerful cultivator, it may break through one point.
Besides that, there will be many other things.
However, I think that Hendrixen still raised this method of warfare in view of the opponent's Peria country.
There was no need for us to take it seriously, even if we wanted to end it in a short showdown.
If it's a bulwark tactic, it will strengthen its defenses and potentially prolong the battle.
Moreover, the opposing forces are not significantly overrun, so they may not be surrounded with much fear.
Above all, there will be Orient forces fighting alongside us.
Ian, an Atmos warrior, naturally thought he was going to get what he deserved.
I'm sure that just fighting the opposing forces across the wall will do a lot of damage.
Besides, Oliva showed everyone how to release the [Flame Thunder Arrow] before arriving in the Purge City.
Besides the archers flying flaming arrows, there were ordinary magic bows that the soldiers could carry, even without a large magic bow.
The Orient faction is well-stocked with ranged attacks.
In other words, Hendrix wants to fight in a way that is less damaging.
I want to build a wall with the opposing faction and fight in a defensive manner to win without reducing the number of Purge soldiers as much as possible.
For this reason, the attackers will also rely on the Orient Army.
Normally, this choice may be difficult to make.
Because it's also a choice to throw away the opportunity to make a difference on the battlefield.
But you chose it, so at least the commander named Hendrixen is looking for a safer victory as a Purge army in this battle than he is.
Do you think honor is more important than profit?
If you were to prioritize your own efforts, I thought I'd push the Purge army forward, but I don't think so.
We also want to avoid damage as much as possible, and we have no objection to fighting with barrier tactics this time.
Thus, we decided to fight in a way that was like defense battles in the field.
