Kicker Castle Fort Ascension
- Commander Fort Kicker.
It is good to say that the failure of Operation Night Assault devastated the morale of Fort Kicker Castle.
The people of the meadow, who seemed alarmed, as soon as they kicked the night assault troops, have turned their wars to us.
It was no longer possible to attack by night raids.
The Bat Squad faces did not return as one.
No food arrived the next day either.
I don't have much food left.
I had to use my last resort.
It is a general mobilization decree.
This Kicker Castle fort has a field outside the castle that draws water from the lake.
There is no crop in the field because it is winter now.
Both the peasants who grow crops in that field and the craftsmen who make their tools live in this castle fort.
They have stockpiles in them.
Collect it all and manage it in bulk.
Ask that peasant to fight, of course.
The damage caused by the robbery of food to peasants by several soldiers has already risen.
Of course we punish them all, but it would already be the limit of each other's patience.
I have declared a general mobilisation decree for Fort Kicker.
Train farmers and craftsmen in stone throwing with cloth.
All food is collected and counted.
The report said that if you consume as much as you do, you can hold out for about seven days.
Then the transport units will arrive too.
No food arrived the next day either.
But a conductor headed home to report back to Kicker Castle Fort.
Of course you'll be meeting the supply troops on that road, so you'll know how much longer we'll be here.
When I called him, he came into the room with a dark face.
"What's up?
"I'll report to you."
"Oh."
"Imperial headquarters, we have little room to send our reinforcements, as soon as possible, twenty days. Hold on until then. That's why."
"Nah!"
Damn it! The main unit is indeed a support south of the Great River. I can't help but give less support to this one. But that twentieth day is too long for us.
"Okay. Shit, so, where was the supply crew walking now?
"Well, weren't you there?
"What?"
The conductor looks sorry to lie down and wait for this reaction.
"Excuse me, say it again"
"Yes. I couldn't find him anywhere without the shadow or shape of a supply unit."
What's this all about? HQ didn't send you food? No, it won't.
Even the idiots at headquarters would know what would happen to the invading army north of the Great River if they did that.
Yeah, one face crosses my head when I'm worried sick.
I remember the face of a battlefield observer who tricked me into releasing food.
Damn it! Maybe he did! Think about it. What would I do if I were him? Speaking of which, the people of the meadows are in the southeast direction of this castle fort...
Shit!
I slapped Don and his desk as much as I wanted.
Maybe the supply unit changed course at his word and headed southeast here.
What to do......
What to do......
There are only a few guard soldiers to the supply unit sent here from HQ.
It is imperative that if you hit with the people of the meadows, they immediately kick you and take you away.
Abandon Kicker Castle Fort? No, you can't. I can't do that.
Then why don't you arrive here and try one or eight fights behind what's attacking them...
Is that all there is...
I concluded that I had no choice but to do so.
Next day
A strange man appeared at the west castle gate.
Whether or not you don't go thirty in your years, your body is not the body of a thin fighter.
"I want to carry that in before the people of the meadows notice me. Open it."
There were about twenty loaded robbers in the direction of the man's fingering.
Even from above the walls, some of them knew it was food and hurried down the bouncing bridge and opened the castle gate.
When the man gave the instructions, Roba slowly crossed the bridge and came inside Kicker Castle Fort.
I went to the man.
The man had instructed Roba to unload his stuff.
All the luggage of Roba was grain with the magic of plants hanging on it.
Better than not enough for a day in this castle fort but still not enough.
"Thank you very much for delivering food."
"No, even with all this, it'll be less than a day's worth here"
This man has been apologizing for bowing his head.
I feel sorry for this one when they apologize.
"By the way, why are you here?
"No, I'm here to dedicate a way to defeat the barbarians out there. This is for you to believe."
"Okay. Here, then."
He is an obnoxious man, but now he is also a straw man.
I invited him to my own office.
And I sat him down in the upper seat and bowed his head.
"So how do we defeat the people of the meadows?
"First, gather about a hundred people with bad looks. And how can you have a hundred clothes for a monstrous clown or something like that?
"If that's about it, it's easy."
"Then two mornings later, I will ask them to put on their clothes and leave."
"Um, what are the specific measures?
"I'll tell you that now. But keep this a secret... Then……. I was a scholar...... Two days later..."
"Okay. Let me use your teacher's measures."
"Thank you"
I decided to believe him.
