How a Former Pro Takes Advantage by Doing an Easy Job

Chapter 98. A warrant is out (6)

“But doesn’t Dia have to be moved to the barracks?”

Among those gathered here, the only one who is quiet is Dia Reki, who is my exclusive wizard and is currently in charge of the wizard corps of Lord Pahilia.

He used to be quiet at first, but now he's even quieter.

because i'm sleeping

The first thing I ate was to lie down on the chair and fall asleep.

It's a bit unsightly in nature, but neither I nor anyone here has anything to say about her behavior.

‘Aren't you tired of being tired?'

Yesterday, the wizards used the mana in the magic stones to blow away their enemies by pouring magic over and over again.

But it's not effortless at all.

Even though he used a magic tool, it causes considerable mental fatigue to absorb, control, and circulate the mana in the magic stone.

In particular, Dia nullified the range of about half of the enemy mage unit with a dispel.

That is, she did most of the work.

In other words, it was hard work that an ordinary magician would have completely stretched out in no time.

On that point, I sincerely praised the returned Dia.

“...it's nothing. I just did the obvious thing.”

She doesn't show it, but she must be the most tired.

Even so, I did not go to the barracks to rest.

to eat first.

If you really want rice, you can leave it aside for later.

She flatly refused.

“Even if I collapse, I will eat and collapse.”

Even if you stretch out, you can feel the tenacity to eat and stretch.

The will to eat freshly grilled meat surpassed me at the moment when the craving for food outweighed the fatigue.

That's right, there are moments when you can't help but compromise.

I was the only one who agreed with her argument.

In fact, I know why I didn't bother to go in and rest.

In order to prepare for an emergency, we try not to get away from us as much as possible.

You don't have to care that much... I stopped you, but I don't compromise on this at all.

“Think of today as a break for tomorrow.”

That's what he told his faithful subordinates.

Yes, the meat eaten today will be the driving force for tomorrow.

For that reason, I not only ate among ourselves, but also distributed enough food to the soldiers.

Because there are wizards, they have enough supplies to eat and rest today, so they can afford to be pampered.

Other lords didn't say much because it was common sense to take a rest before an important operation.

On the contrary, I also secretly sent decent alcohol and food separately to them to keep their mouths shut.

‘Yeah... I guess I'll be a bit busy tomorrow.'

We are planning to move from tomorrow.

The fortress that was gradually taken away must also be recaptured.

Now, leaving only the minimum necessary amount of existing troops here, we must also pull the front line forward and help the best brother by his side.

Actually, I want to play more, but it's a big deal to leave it to them and make mistakes, so I'll have to help a little.

At that time, the commanders gathered in the barracks at the base of the Three Kingdoms Alliance and burst into long moans.

“This is not good.”

Zelkian was the first to speak, breaking the atmosphere filled with moaning.

He was the first to accept the reality that the war situation was troublesome.

Above all, you know the pain best because you have experienced it yourself.

“The kingdom army led by Prince 1 is also annoying, but that is not the main problem.”

After some time, Ernesia, who had adapted to the battlefield, began to operate flexibly in ways to clamp down on the enemy through surprise operations or careful strategies.

Considering that he is a fledgling player who has just entered the battlefield, I would like to praise him for his admiration if he is not an enemy.

In the first place, the best ability itself is nothing special.

From their point of view, it's just a cute level.

It was fully assumed that a surprise attack would come.

However, the problem is that the situation in which they are counterattacking is not the original plan.

Originally, they should have been in the position to push forward.

“It must have been the cause of the collapse due to an unexpected counterattack.”

Zelkian frowned and glared at the map showing the current battle situation and the report he had already read.

The contents of the report describe how they lost 30,000 soldiers while attacking Arell's troops.

The article who published this report blamed himself for his mistake and demanded that he be held accountable for it.

In response, Zelkian only asked for responsibility for restoring the knight in question.

Originally, it was only natural to cut off the head of a knight who came with a defeat close to destruction.

The defeat itself was an unexpected situation, so there is no more punishment than that.

What's more, the opponent is a particularly exceptional case.

‘Arel Ernesia...wasn't she just a kid who only knew how to do business?'

Being smart and being successful on the battlefield are two different things.

Even with thorough planning, war always changes in real time.

It is like the weather experienced in the so-called rugged mountains.

He believed that it was impossible to respond to everything with just his head, so he did not regard Arell as an enemy even if he directly participated in the battle.

War is an experience.

what needs to be done and what to do in the future.

In order to know that, it is more important to experience and know than to plan.

He had believed that while spending a considerable amount of time on the battlefield.

But a boy who barely lived half of his life broke it?

That too, with an army of only 23,000, counterattacking an attack force of over 50,000 and destroying it?

This isn't a legend that could come out of a fairy tale.

If it was just someone else's business, I would have laughed at you, don't lie.

Thanks to that, one front line was slanted, and naturally, the commanders leading other units had no choice but to slow down accordingly.

Thinking that he might suffer such an unexpected defeat, of course he has no choice but to be scared.

Because of that, the morale of the allied forces decreased, and the wind gave the Ernesia kingdom army a chance to counterattack.

If you follow that point, in the end, does it mean that it was Arel, not the first prince, who led this counterattack?

‘How far did they aim?'

Reports only know that he is a boy who is about to turn 16.

Was it really the result of his plan? Or is it a coincidence?

‘Should I give a report to His Excellency?'

I thought for a while about whether I should bring this issue up to my home country, but then I shook my head.

It's still too early.

‘I don't understand why do you stay in the back room?'

A commander with such ability would have been able to turn the tide of the war without hesitation.

Rather, if it were himself, he would have used all means to take the lead in annihilating the enemy.

However, in the eyes of Zelkian, who was accustomed to war, he could not understand Arel's intentions.

what the heck does he want to do

‘...It's meaningless to think about it any further than that.'

He quickly gave up understanding the enemy.

Now we have to break this flow of counterattack.

There is no point in sitting and getting confused about an enemy you don't even know.

“Anyway, the enemy is just starting a counterattack now. As long as we don’t rush over, we can handle it.”

As he said that, he encouraged foreign commanders.

next day.

He led the troops and joined the front line led by the best brother.

It's roughly the pretext of helping my brother's advance, but I tried to join as leisurely as possible, giving the excuse that the advance was slow due to our new equipment.

For that reason, our advance is slow compared to other lords.

If possible, I'd like it to be all over when we arrive, but expecting that would be a little too much.

Anyway, with the previous record, the morale of the other lords also rose as soon as they rose, so the battle itself seemed to be easy.

At this rate, it seemed that with a little bit of help, we could quickly recapture the border fort.

“At this rate, wouldn’t there be room for us to step out?”

Seeing the high morale of the other units, Seina expressed her feelings as if she was a little fed up.

It seemed a bit disappointing that she hadn't been able to keep active until now.

I rebuked her with a wry smile.

“Isn't it better for the other lords to keep going as far as possible rather than struggling?”

That is my desire to be as comfortable as possible.

But you should do the bare minimum.

“Slow down the advance. Let's go half as slow as we are now.”

While advancing smoothly, I checked the surrounding terrain and map and instructed them to slow down further.

Ordinarily, it would be an incomprehensible instruction, but everyone slowed down the advance as I ordered without question.

“Do you have something?”

In the end, he couldn't stand it and asked if he was curious about Kania.

“That's... it looks like I'll be waiting for it.”

“huh?”

The other knights seemed to understand it roughly, but my sister hadn't noticed it yet.

When I go back to the manor later, I should teach my sister at least some tactical common sense.

“Last time, the Army of the Three Kingdoms recklessly rushed at our unit and got burned once, didn’t it?”

“Yep. It was.”

My sister nodded.

“Then, shall we strike from the front in the same way next time?”

I crossed my fingers to make a cross mark.

“I don’t think they will come head-on after that.”

It is difficult for normal infantry to break through our defenses.

Even if you try to attack with magic, our side mage's dispel is also formidable.

There are also overflowing magic stones, so counterattacks are no joke.

“The other person isn’t an idiot either, so he won’t do the same stupid thing twice.”

If someone comes back for the same mistake twice, it would be better for him to just strip the commander off the spot.

Then it doesn't come straight.

However, we cannot ignore our troops.

If so, what should I do?

I unfolded the map and pointed out the forest and terrain on the path of our unit one by one while asking my sister to look at it.

“Because this area is perfect for an ambush.”

In about half a day, our unit will also pass near this point.

“Common sense doesn’t allow a place like this to stand still.”

I smiled and began to explain my future course of action to my sister and the other knights.

“If the opponent is preparing something, wouldn’t it be polite to confidently throw a candy there?”

As expected by Arel, the surprise troops of the Three Kingdoms Alliance were encamped and ambushed in the expected course of his troops according to the strategy.

Although the advance is slow, it would be foolish to let the firepower of Arell's troops come all the way to the front.

Accordingly, the leaders of the Triple Alliance planned to ambush Arel's troops with a separate surprise unit to tie them down or to inflict some damage.

At the very least, it should be prevented from joining other units in time.

“The time has come for the enemy to pass. Wait carefully.”

The knight in charge of the surprise squad is instructing us to attack cautiously.

When it comes to a certain extent, it is about to strike from a distance.

In addition to magic, he intended to mobilize even long-range attacks using a bow in preparation for Dispel.

“The advance is slow over there. If that's the case, just attack without approaching.”

Instead of approaching from the front, attack from the side.

“The surprise attack must be successful.”

To stop Arell's forces.

And Arell Ernesia can't be left unattended either.

That is the commander's decision.
