How a Former Pro Takes Advantage by Doing an Easy Job

Chapter 94. A warrant has been issued (2)

“I just want you to follow me in command. know?”

“Don’t worry. Because you have that much common sense.”

Archen snorted.

You guys are blacksmiths, but if you get entangled, you're worried because you're going to go out of your way.

Still, if they follow you, you will be less worried about mending the knights' equipment.

And, of course, with them, it would be much easier to deal with ‘it' for this war.

I mean it's not bad from my point of view.

Northeastern Front Dergia Fortress.

Built with the assumption that border fortifications would be pushed back, this place boasts a solidity equivalent to that of the frontier.

However, when this castle was built, who would have imagined that the day would come when this fortress would be used as a second line of defense?

There I arrived with an army.

However, they did not enter the fort.

Since there were 23,000 of them, it would be better to build a base outside the fort than to cram them together inside the fortress.

Immediately after giving instructions to prepare a base for the troops to stay, I looked around.

Seeing that the other lords haven't been seen yet, it seems we arrived first.

Well, on our side, it was only natural for us to arrive first since the magician gave us recovery magic or increased our marching speed by lightening our equipment.

By the way...

“It seems that it was more intense than I thought.”

While coming here, I passed by other troops several times and checked them out of the corner of my eye.

Everyone was quite exhausted from fatigue and injuries.

Although now, it seems that the enemies have also entered a short rest period, perhaps in order to adjust their posture.

It must have been quite intense here.

In particular, it is a situation where the front line has been abandoned and pushed to the second line of defense.

It would never have been green.

“Asha and Seina, take command of securing a base here.”

“yes.”

After entrusting command of the unit to the female knights, I called my sister.

“You know you have to go with me, right?”

“I know that much.”

My sister puffed out her cheeks as if it were ridiculous.

Even though I came here, I don't feel very nervous.

As expected, I was born with courage.

“Then my sister and I will say goodbye for a while. I'll leave the bag to you.”

“yes. Please rest assured.”

Leaving the rest to others, I entered the fort with my sister.

And I went to the largest barracks in it.

Even though the base is set up outside, that doesn't mean you can't go inside the fortress.

Now that I'm here, there's an opponent I need to show my face to first.

When we headed to the barracks, the knights who were already in command there also recognized me and my sister and bowed.

This is why I like the royal family. It's a free pass just for the face.

“This way.”

As we headed into the barracks with the guidance, the oldest brother was there with a serious face, as if he had been having a meeting with other nobles.

“…Have you come?”

The older brother's face, turning toward us, is so tired that I wonder if it's the fair-haired young man I remembered.

It didn't get ugly, of course.

I used to be a pretty young man, but now I've become a pretty young man for 5 days in a row. ‘Of course I'm more handsome.

By the way, looking at that fatigue, the battlefield must have been quite harsh.

Considering that it was the first war, they should be praised for holding out well with the current state.

“The third prince, Arell. I'll see you, my older brother.”

I was polite to my older brother.

“I'll see you, Kania too.”

Unlike usual, my sister also asked, ‘Who are you?' He greeted politely enough to make a sound.

Although they belong to the royal family, it is common to clearly point out the hierarchy.

In the first place, my older sister and I had a strange attitude towards life.

“...Is Kania here too?”

The oldest brother continued with a bitter expression.

“I’m sorry. I hope it will come to you.”

It wasn't just a show, it was really disrespectful.

Originally, he had an upright personality, so he must really regret that he dragged us into the war.

“Brother, don’t talk like that.”

At first, I responded honestly to his words.

“no. This wouldn't have happened if I had been directing...

“?????? older brother.”

No, even if I had directed it straight, I would have been robbed like a dog on the wings of a dog.

I can't bear to say this in front of my face.

Normally, if you fall into an unfavorable situation, you would blame others first, but this man excludes it from accidents as if it were natural.

As if he had drawn an ideal picture, he had a clean personality as the next king.

Honestly, that's what I think of every time I see this guy.

Queen Elia.

I don't know how a person like this came out of the black lady's stomach.

Isn't personality genetic?

So I don't really like this guy.

What can I do though? That this person is your brother

I'm sucking honey only when this person becomes the king.

After my brother and I say goodbye.

It was only then that the nobles who had been silent came out one after another and bowed to my sister.

After such a troublesome greeting, my sister and I sat side by side at a round table and joined the meeting.

i give yong

My older sister also plays the role of a knight who followed me, but she is still a member of the royal family.

Both deserve to be here.

Even if I feel a little disapproving stare, what will they say anyway?

“...I heard that the war situation is quite bad.”

There is nothing to talk about at length.

In order to quickly wrap things up and move on, I decided to mention the war situation from the first word.

“....Yes.”

The older brother was silent for a while, then taught me the current situation.

The border fortress had already fallen into the hands of the enemy and became one of their strongholds.

Immediately, the enemy divided 320,000 troops to attack the second line of defense.

Among them, this place, which is the middle road, is currently under the most fierce attack.

The reason the battlefield was quiet when I finally arrived was because the enemy temporarily stopped attacking to reorganize their forces.

‘That's not good....

When I saw it, if I was only 5 days late, it might have been pierced.

Doesn't this mean you can't afford to wait patiently for another lord to come?

“By the way Arell? Where are your soldiers?”

“Since there are quite a few of them, we are setting up a temporary base outside the fort.”

When I said exactly 23,000, the older brother's face brightened a little.

“It's reassuring to have reached 23,000.”

I'm not reassured, I'm miserable.

Currently, the soldiers I have led can be divided into three groups.

First of all, the archery corps mainly use longbows.

And the shield corps to be in charge of defense.

Finally, the Spear Corps, the flower of troops.

They were given weapons made by the Dwarves and thoroughly trained for today, and even the food and supplies they had steadily accumulated over the years.

It is true that I have calculated the amount to be distributed to them to some extent and brought it.

There were quite a few materials, but there were wizards, so it wasn't too difficult to transport thanks to the magic that could reduce the weight.

When I shared detailed information about the troops and supplies, the elder brother as well as the nobles were quite impressed.

In particular, the fact that he was delighted with the supply materials was openly revealed.

It seems that the consumption was more intense than expected.

“Excellent.”

My older brother praised me honestly.

“Could it be that Arel-nim assumed this time from the beginning and prepared for it?”

A nobleman asked, a little surprised.

“It was just in case.

It was kind of a gamble.”

If these materials are no longer needed, they must have suffered significant losses because they were either in warehouses or at bargain prices.

I was pretty sure I would need it anyway.

In reality, far from gambling, it was an investment toward the future.

....although they won't let you know.

So I just pretended it was a gamble.

My older brother was responding with pure surprise.

“Arel… you have a surprisingly bold side.”

“Thanks to you, didn’t you become able to help your older brother?”

I smiled as I answered that on purpose. Anyway, I decided to give them some of the supplies I brought.

It's not bad to plant grace by giving generously rather than doing business up to this point.

Let's tame it with food.

It was meant to be that way from the beginning.

This will give them peace of mind until the supply party arrives.

“In addition, you can hold out until the lords arrive with an army.”

Jeil hyung-nim was sincerely relieved.

Even tomorrow, the enemy will launch an offensive again, so if my troops can stop it, that alone will give me peace of mind.

....but I don't like it.

Why do I have to use soldiers raised with money and care as your shields?

Above all, it is too late.

We need to change the situation right now.

“Brother, there is no need to wait.”

“Arel? What do you mean?”

“The defense is about this, and somehow we have to cut down the enemies and hit them back.”

“I know that, but the current situation doesn’t allow it.”

“Actually, I have prepared something for this situation.”

I wanted to say this one day.

I knew this would happen and I prepared something for today.”

I never thought I would say that line in this lifetime.

I have no intention of holding on here pathetically.

Of course, defense is important in the current situation.

But how long are you going to stop it?

From the beginning, I was only thinking of getting back.

That's why there are things prepared for today.

“Preparation… what did you bring? Is there something else?”

The best brother showed interest.

If an ordinary human being said such a thing, he would have been slapped in the face for not talking nonsense.

But what I'm saying now is none other than your younger brother, a famous genius.

yes believe me

If you believe, you will be saved.

“Would you like to see it for yourself?”

I laughed and said to my older brother.

* * *

There are things developed by blacksmiths by assuming the current situation, which is only defensive, and the situation that requires a counterattack from the beginning.

“Let’s look at this first.”

I personally guided Jeil Hyung-nim to our base and showed off one of the things I had prepared in advance.

First, a mobile watchtower.

Since this watchtower is prefabricated, it can be disassembled and transported when transported, and assembled when necessary to fulfill its role as a watchtower.

In addition, there is no problem with the strength because the wizards have put magic on each part.

I plan to place archers and mages in this watchtower.

“???? Whoa!”

“This is not all.”

Don't think that all you brought was the watchtower.

Above all, this is real.

I showed the second thing to Jeil hyung.

“this is?”

“As for naming it... It should be called Saemundo Tea.”

The next thing I instructed to develop was Saemoondocha.

The main appearance was a two-wheeled vehicle with wheels, and an iron plate was added in front of the wooden plate like a shield in front.

It looks like there are countless blades attached to the front of the iron plate.

Originally, it was a weapon commonly used in ancient siege warfare in China and Korea in the past.

It was developed for the purpose of defending the castle gate, defending the approach of enemy troops, or pushing and counterattacking by using this.

Of course, unlike general Saemundo tea, it was made stronger through magic or dwarven skills so that it could withstand a tolerable shock.

I plan to use these to carefully defend and push the enemies back.
