Chapter 116 Episode 114: Small Hope

I entered Gers as a current military grou, and asked the boy lord Alois for an explanation.

"Why can you tell me why you're so nervous?" "Did you not know?" "I'm harassing a cover-up unit that the army has released. When I came to ask the situation, it was just the scene above. "" I see ... Simply put, an enemy general was shot and assassinated by someone on this side. "

A two-stage strategy? It's a tantrum for Gordon and rough for Sonia. That's another person's suggestion. However, Gordon began to ignore his father's impression in earnest as he tried to forcibly start the war. What are you going to do after the war with the south? It's quite transparent this time.

"It's an interesting situation. Is it your uncle who prepared the sniper?"

Then the non is here. A general strikes back after the general is assassinated. Well, it is forcibly forced, but it is up to that if it is said that it is a judgment of the site. And if this action breaks through this city, it will be a total war with the South. Then you can't go back. There is no hand except to sit down and hit the south. That's the best scenario for Gordon. But if the city doesn't fall, it's a different story. A skirmish where the battle took place here. Information arrives at Kruger's headquarters shortly after. By then, the Leos will probably have reached and settled. Hold on for a couple of days and get the fight right here. Even if Gordon informs the Imperial City, he will be immediately canceled and will not receive any information. This is a situation where you do not want to leak information, just as you do not want to leak information.

"The movement of the army was smooth. Probably because it was as expected. Fighting is inevitable anymore. What is the strength here?" "Knights are 500, soldiers are 500. There are 1,000 in total. Wasn't trained ... "" Immediate squadron. Well better than not ... Enemy army is 10,000 elite, here is 1,000 skulls. The difference in numbers is ten times, but the difference in strength is More than that. ''

Even if you can win for a few days, it is a painful desperate difference that it is hard to hold for a few days. If done properly, it will be dropped in a day.

"Can you win ...?" Tr a nsl a t e d by Ｊp ｍt l .ｃo m

Alois asks anxiously. I pat my head to relieve Alois.

"I have a chance. Of course there are a lot of things you can do." "Oh, it's okay! I'll do it!" "Okay. Then introduce me to the other vassals. "Start from" "Yes!"

Alois and I started walking with a cheerful reply.

■■■

"I understand the situation"

The answer was an old knight. However, his eyes are still sharp, and his movements do not look old. It is Vogt, the chief of the Knights of the Earl of Simmel, who gives the atmosphere of an old man.

T r a ns lat ed b y jp ｍt l .ｃo m "If the sniper was in the hands of Earl of Simmel, it would not be possible to make an justification. The military would not be convinced that Alois-sama was of no relevance. It's fine to fight against, but why don't you put such an inferior man beside you? "

Vogt says so and stares at me. The same is true for others. The veterans were gathered. Alois's uncle had no connection, and were on guard at the city walls. It is natural for them to fight Alois. But I'm not convinced that someone like me is there.

"Glaug helped me. You can trust me." "Even if you helped, trusting it is another matter."

Hmmm, will this happen too? I have no time to wrestle inside in a situation where we must fight together.

"The Commander of the Knights of Vogt. Is it a little good?" "What is the flow of the military?" "What do you think of the current situation?" "It's the time of the death of the Count of Simmel." "What?"

To Vogt I point to the map that was spread out for the strategy meeting. This Gers is the southern forefront. Leaving here means that the war will flank the front zone.

"If this is pulled out, the Imperial Army will invade the south at once. The fire will spread all over the place, and will greatly weaken the Empire. What triggered it? Even if this battle saves lives, the emperor will surely execute the clan. "" That's ... "" But I can't surrender right now. I'm executed for the assassination of a general. You're one step closer, and you'll be wondering why the soldiers have to fight the Imperial Army, even if the lord's mother is hostage, it's a matter of the lord, and it's hard work to convince them. Your strength is weak, your opponent is strong, the problems are piled up, that's the reality, isn't it you who don't know how valuable those who offer cooperation are? " "Kinu," "I'll watch you. The Imperial Army will attack you soon?" "I see ... I know it's hopeless, but I'm here. I wonder? "

I nod to the words of Vogt. And look at them all.

"The word desperate isn't exactly that good, but there is hope. The Empire is conducting a secret operation. Within a few days, the Duke of Kruger will be surprised. "I haven't heard such a story?" "It's confidential. Let's get back to it. Despite the desperate count of Simmel, the situation changes if you endure here. This is a commendable act from the emperor's point of view, partly because his mother has been taken hostage, and this time there are various imperial battles in the imperial capital. "If I survive this difficult situation, the wind will change." ing. I know Grau can't believe it, and he doesn't have any credibility to say, but we have no choice but to trust him, because if we fight normally, we lose. "

Alois's words showed the vassals a bit of a sad face, but then bowed as if to give up. Alois looks at me and looks at me.

"Now let me know the strategy." "Okay. When the Imperial Army attacks such a fortified city, it is common practice to first attack the front gate and launch a surprise attack on the thinned gate. I'm going to use this common practice as long as I think things have gone. "" Will you spread your strength across the four gates? "" No, there is a tenfold difference in the number of soldiers from the beginning. If you want to withstand an attack, you have to use the appropriate strength here as well. ''

The attack on the front gate, which is originally a decoy, is too different in scale as an army. The decoy can't be the main attack, and it is not wise to move your strength from the main gate. Vogt squints at my words.

"Then, do you mean killing the surprise units?" "No matter how many enemy troops are regular troops. In contrast, this one is small and not regular troops. But that's unavoidable, and that's why we fall into the trap. "

No matter how cautious the assault squad is, the perception of a rural city remains unchanged. As long as the difference in power is absolute, don't hit the stone bridge. They have the purpose of breaking through the city as early as possible and taking control of the southern front. Once that happens, you cannot stop being an emperor. Without a doubt, the army will come down in a hurry by conventional means.

"Alois. Can you lend me a hundred soldiers?" "Hundreds of people ... can you beat the assault squad?" "The army is aiming for a sparse gate. That's enough. And one more thing. "Tell me anything. I'll get you ready soon." "It's not a big deal. You should have some oil for your defense. Can you get it a little bit?" But will a simple fire attack defeat a surprise unit? "" I'm thinking there.

T r ans lat e d by Jp ｍ t l .com I say that and laugh thinly. I couldn't see the face, but it was transmitted in an atmosphere. Fokuto takes a step back when he feels something. Thus, I was involved in a battle with the Imperial Army.
