The Branded Female Fencer
Insufficient personnel, Part 12 - Line of Defense ① -
"Sometimes it's maple. Have you analyzed the example yet?
"Yes, a worm that was previously in the Seeker, but was still confirmed to be a creature of the Southern continent"
"How many people have been sacrificed in the South?
"Is it about 40 people"
"Not so much"
Miriazal looked sad, but the maple went on fine.
"Instead, we've come to capture quite a few demons. We are currently analyzing the habits of those demons. Again, as Master Miriazal stared at, all the trifles on the southern continent are considerably sweetened by the fact that they are out on this continent. We have already established a base in several places, and since the participation of the three Javawoks, Rockroofs and Reiki, the operation has progressed at a considerable rate. The question is, from what point do we attack?"
"As planned, attack from the Yae Forest. But establish a base and find out how invasive it is. One moves on to build a base and flatten the perimeter. The march must be hasty, but cautious. If you push fast, you must destroy them all."
"Okay. The invasion has already begun on" The Sandy Sea of Glass "and" The Rock Castle of Kuyuan ", but I was wondering if it would be difficult for the latter to step in. I have a fairly hands-on guardian, and apparently organized. I know this is the base of the demon. On the contrary, the former has nothing and is clapping, but this is again nowhere to be found, making it very difficult to produce a base. Either way, the invasion is going to be hard."
"Okay, things don't seem to have changed much with the old days. But this time, no matter how much sacrifice you make, you have to do it. You can't wait any longer.
As soon as secondary production of Demonic Crystal Stone (Roadstone) is complete, dispatch the following troops: Tell them to release the sword as well as other weapons and armor processes. It's been a big deal since the war. "
"Okay."
Master Miriazal meant it, Maple understood. There is no era in Arnelia's authentic history when he was equipped with a full body of demonic crystal stones. Even the history behind the Mouthless Know doesn't specify that there was such an era. The Demonic Crystal Stone itself is a rare metal in the first place, expensive enough to be traded for a handful of tens of thousands of pents. It is generally only recognised as a beautiful gem or ornament.
But in the hidden mines that Miriazal had commanded, there were mountains of magical crystal stones, so much so that they might be built even in huge buildings. And the humans who lived there understood the process of purifying the Demonic Crystal Stone, and instantly began to produce weapons and protective equipment.
Maple changed his mind. I wonder if Miriazal's true awesomeness, horror, is not his own strength, but a connection he has accumulated over the centuries. And if Miriazal is willing, she has enough power to unite this continent by force.
Maple bows back from Miriazal with a bow of grace. How much more, half-sided, Miriazal's horror and feeling lonely expecting to have these hands hidden.
"Do you have a representative of this mercenary regiment!
"It's me."
Alphilis and the others had unloaded the Fei Long at the landing site they had been contacted in advance, removing the load from the Fei Long. And before all the loads could be removed, an armored soldier came here with a quick leg and shouted up to find a representative of the mercenary regiment.
Alphilis accompanied Rhine and Lisa, plus Rosetta, out in front of the soldiers. Soldiers take a good look at those four. His eyes glowed sharply as if to define this one in his helmet.
"Are you the representative?
"Yes, do you have a complaint?
"Well, a representative is a woman. I didn't know you guys were gonna lay on a woman's ass."
"Ah?"
The line stopped Rosetta from looking back at the soldiers.
"Sorry you didn't have the guts. What worries me more than that is your position tomorrow. You're the one who's gonna let us play in here and take responsibility if the front line breaks through, right? If you don't want to upset the superior officer, you're gonna have to show us around. That way we don't have to look at each other's opposing sides."
"... this way"
Though he looked even more grumpy at Rhine's words, the soldier guided the Alphilis and the others with great care. The modus operandi is obligatory and does not seek to explain in any way what is and where.
Though not on the front line where we are now, all the soldiers we see there were in a rush to move. Transporting supplies, interacting with soldiers, and caring for wounded soldiers. Obviously not enough in service doctors and pharmacists, soldiers with armor were also running around holding bandaged and medicated vials. No sign of Arnelia's officials intervening yet.
There were men in there who looked at Rosetta and greeted her. Apparently Rosetta's familiar mercenary, Rosetta pulled herself away from the guide as she blinded herself to Alphilis. I guess I went to them to gather information.
And the Alphilis were guided to a room guarded by soldiers, as they were guided by unscrupulous soldiers. When the man explained something to the guard soldiers, he left the Alphilis and the others blind.
There's no time for the Alphilis and the others to get upset, and the guard soldiers knock on the door.
"Excuse me. Mercenaries have arrived."
"Get in."
When the soldier opened the door and praised him inside, he urged the Alphilis to go in with their jaws. The attitude of the soldier who was handicapped, but Alphilis also stopped whining. There's no way you can expect love or anything like that on the battlefield. Besides, mercenaries are most often treated as such. Alphilis had remembered that for a long time.
Once inside, there is a map spread over a large table and some pawns. Men in armor stood as they surrounded the map. The client's soldier represents the height of his identity in the corner of his helmet. I have more horns, and the bigger one has a higher status as a military man. Because the king is said to be a five-horn man, a three-horn man would be the chief officer in this place. Alphilis dared ask everyone, knowing about it.
"Who is my employer?
"It's me"
As expected, a three-horned man replied. The man turns his congested eyes to Alphilis. He probably hasn't slept that much, he was tired of seeing his face. The man looked old enough to be as old as he could still be 40.
"You're General Pfeiffer?
"Yes, I am also the client of this one. Early arrival, but I want you to get to the front line as soon as possible. I heard your soldiers say 500?
"Yeah, exactly 500."
"Okay. Then I'll have Grants as planned, the Admiral, and Ozdoba as his deputy general, with a thousand soldiers, heading towards Fort Salamo here on the map. This is the front line. If you are pulled out of here, the path continues flat and easy to get through to this castle. There are many side roads, and it is very difficult to contain them when the army is deployed. You can say this salamo is the lifeline. I asked for it."
Pfeiffer explained, pointing to the map. Indeed, that was where the roads with many side roads were shown, and when Salamo was pulled out, it was likely that the soldiers would then need to be shared to protect each place. I wonder if the place where the pawn is located is the front line, there were about two other fronts and bumpy places, but from here to there it was a main road fort, and it might have been possible to seal off the road even if it had been pulled out of the fort because the road seemed dangerous again.
When Alphilis looked at the map and put the whole thing in his head, he said away to Pfeiffer.
