The Branded Female Fencer

"Alfi, where are you going?

"I wanted to see how Clier's army was doing. I can imagine how badly the front line sucks, even from what the main unit looks like. And."

"And?"

"That general is hiding something. I smelled like a liar."

Alphilis looks carefully at what's going on around him. But nobody blamed Alphilis for walking around in dignity. They are all just busy running around in their own business.

But in the corner, Alphilis discovered a strange building. Soldiers are looking around only closely around it. That number was also high and seemed to protect something of the utmost importance. The Alphilis hid themselves naturally and wanted to know what the building looked like from afar.

"Lisa, can you sense inside?

"Let's try it"

There will naturally be boundaries stretched around. Lisa was aware of it and tried to sense around the building in more detail. By adjusting the wavelength of the sonar and flying it in various ways, we thoroughly explored whether there were any failures in the building's boundaries. But with Lisa's strength, I couldn't find a breakdown.

"... you can't. Sounds like a magician with a lot of abilities has put up a line. There's no such thing as a breakdown in the world."

"On the other hand, you're hiding something that matters."

"Weapon protection equipment, don't make it too harsh for food. There is also the possibility of prisoners. But, Alfie, it's time to go. Lookout's coming this way."

In a word of the line, Alphilis left the scene with the thought of being pulled behind her hair. Maybe we can explore that building if Renatica is on this spot, but it won't be possible either if it doesn't get dark. Alphilis, while concerned, gave up confirmation of that building at this stage.

And in the process of Alphilis returning to his people, Rosetta joins us.

"Rosetta, did you get any useful information?

"Oh, I've got quite a bit of information. Can I talk to you now?

"Please."

As for Alphilis, who wanted to set up some kind of operation before returning to his people, I almost wanted information on Rosetta as soon as possible.

Rosetta says.

"That's a war situation first. Naturally, this one is overwhelmingly unfavourable. There are three castles out of this Fort Galpus, of which Fort Salamo hits the throat. When this guy is dropped, it will be an easy terrain for the military to deploy to Fort Galps. Besides, Fort Galps is a major traffic shock, but the walls are low and not built for much of a war prevention purpose.

The problem is that this is already client territory. When they drop here, the war ends with Veesel overwhelming advantage. Then the quinquennial treaty is impossible, and when it comes to rematching, we can develop into a Vesel advantage. Clients will want to defend this place at all costs. "

"You heard about the situation somewhat. But then to end the war..."

"Yes, we need to defend this area, whatever it is. Ideally, you're destroying the army we're sending you."

"Do we at least need to create a gap for Arnelia to intervene,"

"Then at least we'll have to fight each other with our current stopovers. What is the power and content of the stopover?

Lisa keeps asking. Rosetta is informed, of course. But the expression didn't float.

"That's the problem. The power of the nearest hand is roughly five thousand. In contrast, there are currently three thousand troops stationed in Salamo. Fair enough as a force."

"The line of defense will allow us to fight more than each other. And with this reinforcement..."

"Well, normally, you could aim back. But while the castle's defensemen are reduced in number, more than a thousand soldiers are already dead in the castle. He's got an overwhelming amount of power."

"That's the Karatzel Cavalry?

Alphilis thought of the information he had heard beforehand, but Rosetta's reply was a different one.

"No, the Carazel cavalry specializes in fighting on the plains. I will deal with the army that came out of the fortress, but the siege is not for me.

Another group is attacking the castle. But they also have a lot of mercenaries there. "Castle Attacker" Pralwiefmoroto. They're the ones who're gonna stop by this time. "

"Castle attacker..."

Alphilis rebuked the name of an opponent he had never heard of.

"A castle attacker, are you strong?

"Hmm... don't have quite a history as a mercenary corps. They were active before Tahei. See, a castle attack is a war of attrition, isn't it? But they had a reputation for dropping castles without causing too much human damage. The castle drop rate will be 80% during the full season."

"That sounds like a pretty good number. What's so amazing?

"Atai doesn't fit for a castle attack, so you've barely participated. As much as I've seen them once, I think the tools used for siege warfare were incredibly high. But it was over 30 years ago. And then I don't know what happened."

"In the end, you can't say anything without looking at it."

Lisa sighed, but the faceless line next door was in the same mood. The line also independently grabs information, but it should be a month since the siege of Fort Salamo began. If a castle attacker is coming, it is predictable that Fort Salamo will be on the verge of falling. That's why there's no difference.

At the end of the day, the Alphilis and the others were to go ahead with Ozdoba to Fort Salamo. General Grants seems to be coming later to transport supplies in large quantities. I was surprised the reinforcement general didn't get ahead of me, Alphilis, but I wasn't in a position to complain.

The distance to Fort Salamo is about a day's haste by horse. Ozdova to put 300 soldiers ahead on a loaned horse. One hundred of them were mercenary regiments of the Alphilis.

What Alphilis, who arrived at Fort Salamo with Ozdoba, saw was an unimaginably tragic situation.

"Terrible..."

You're on the verge of falling.

What was in front of Alphilis were the soldiers of Salamo who had already tried to lose their temper to fight. They were uniformly wounded and blue-blue, laying and sitting on the ground without the energy to look around.

The walls are also destroyed enough to be seen from within. The lookout table has been burned, and the castle gate has been completely distorted even by a broken castle hammer. Decent doors will now be tight to open and close.

Strangely enough, it burned everywhere in the castle, as if there had been a battle in the castle. Osdoba and Alphilis wandered among the wounded soldiers in search of a defensive captain.

"It was dangerous, if reinforcements were delayed the next day, I don't know what would have happened."

"Right. We need to raise food and medicine to the negative wounded first. You don't have Arnelia's Sister?

"Speaking of which, you are. Let's hear that, too."

Ozdova spoke to a soldier who looked relatively healthy and let him guide him to the defensive captain. There was a defensive captain there who looked strange and was discussing it with several people.

When he realized that Ozdova had come, he let the others back down and walked over himself.
