612 The aim of radio broadcasting

"There have been over 10,000 war fatalities in the Rheinzatz army. The damage continues to grow."

"Not so much anymore...... Lots of people are down. This is the sight of the battlefield."

"Are you all right, Miss Killi? Why don't you take a little rest without having to?

"... No, I'm fine. You can still go."

"Right. But as soon as it gets hard, I'll tell you."

"Yes, thank you, Master Vargas. But you can't. I can't believe we're not actually fighting, but just watching makes such a weak noise."

"That's not true. Everyone does. Some of the guys who went to war as recruits are bound to be like that every time. It's not uncommon to never be on the battlefield again."

"But Ars was out on the battlefield fighting since he was just a little girl, wasn't he? You were well safe. It's too strong physically and mentally."

"Right. Well, the Admiral made and used [meditation] as Barca's magic. That calms my mind at the same time as I get tired of my body. In that sense, the Barca army with the magic of the Barca might be less likely to leave because of mental problems."

Are you sure you're all right, Miss Kiri?

My complexion is getting worse.

You shouldn't make it too much.

Besides, you should stop comparing it to the Admiral.

There is no point in comparing yourself to such a weird one.

Whatever you think of that, it's just strange for the Admiral.

"But apparently, the flow so far has meant an operation entirely as the Admiral imagined. You mean it was a prefabrication where the first wall was built and broken?"

"Perhaps so, Dear Vargas van Barres. The walls made by the avant-garde of the Barca army in [wall architecture] were intentionally placed. By daring to create a wall to open the gap, we are guiding the line of movement of the Rheinzatz army that is breaking through. As a result, time lags within the Rheinzatz army appear to have become more effective as a result of sweep attacks by demon guns"

"You were finally building a maze of walls. And an attack from left to right by a cavalry after a certain amount of battle. The Rheinzatz army can't pull it either because the avant-garde troops are breaking through the wall and continuing their attack. Even if you're attacked with a thunderbolt sword or something."

"But I think the Rheinzatz army should pull. Significant damage has already been done to the Rheinzatz army, compared to 183 Barca army deaths. As it is, they will continue to unilaterally spread the damage against the Barca army."

"... Etsuya. Is that the real aim of radio broadcasting? You mean they were building another invisible wall."

"What do you mean, Master Vargas? The real aim of the radio? What kind of wall doesn't look like that?

"Mm-hmm. You have live broadcasts on this radio of the Battle of the Barca Army against the Reinzatz Army. Miss Kiri, why do you think the Admiral is doing this?

"Is that why Ars is doing this broadcast? Let the Barca army know how strong it is, or what?

"I guess that's one reason. Show the people listening to the radio how strong Barca is. By doing so, we can also exert pressure on the coalition of nobles who are now in the Wang Metropolitan Area. I was wondering if that's where the radio was going."

"Is there any other reason why I thought, that's different?

"I guess so. Look at the Rheinzatz army move so far. That's what I finally understand now. The Admiral is building a wall in the heart of the Rheinzatz army."

"... I'm not sure. I mean, what does that mean?

"Normally, the way the Rheinzatz army is damaged nowadays is unusual, since early in the war we are fighting with 10x more power but only as much damage as the total number of their opponents' armies. What would you do if you lost so far, Miss Killi?

"Amateur opinion, but I think I would retreat. If you can't fight and win, you might as well admit to losing while the numbers are still high."

"That's right. That's the normal way of thinking. But the Rheinzatz army can't do that. Because of this radio broadcast by the Admiral."

It's really a lot to think about.

I remember what the Admiral used to say for a long time.

He was asked a little bit about the content that it is important to have multiple meanings in one action when taking action.

And I guess this radio broadcast has a lot of aims, too.

One is that Miss Kiri will let anyone who listens to the radio know how strong Barca is.

And in parallel with that aim, I guess there is also an aim to ensure that the territory cut in this battle is as smoothly under control as possible.

But as I watched the flow of this battle, I realized I had other aims.

That lies in limiting the movements of the Rheinzatz army.

Winning and losing in battle is an important issue for knights and nobles.

but it can also be said that losing itself is common because if you fight at the same time, one will always win and one will lose.

Victory and defeat are a constant part of a soldier's house. What a word.

There is no point in being vaguely afraid of losing itself, and in some cases you should honestly admit to losing and try to start over.

But through this radio broadcast, the Admiral is trying not to force the Rheinzatz army to take the action of withdrawing.

This battle between the Barca and Reinzatz forces has been preliminarily foreshadowing the broadcast for a few days.

There was a warning that we would soon be able to hear a battle on the radio throughout the territory at the same time.

And you probably know about that, too, the Rheinzatz army you're fighting now.

Winning or losing is a constant part of a soldier's home, losing is common, and sometimes losing well is necessary.

Some of those who are called famous generals may also remain talking about those who named themselves in skillful retreats.

So normally, the Reinzatz army should also be looking at retreating.

But I can never back down in this situation.

Because there's nothing good about the Rheinzatz army.

He was hammered by the Barca army's measures and drained his soldiers by brilliance.

If we were able to retreat here and preserve the number of troops without any further reduction, Reinzatz's ratings would be greatly reduced.

And that goes for both the general who leads that Rheinzatz army and the Rheinzatz family in the main house.

Only the stigma of a hegemonic nobleman who has failed against one nobleman, Barca, of the Kingdom of Fontana, will be left behind.

Will this be allowed?

Or can you admit it?

I can't.

There's absolutely no way you can admit it.

Withdrawal here can never be done as a nobleman or knight, even if it is strategically effective.

Because if we do that, even if we survive, we will be able to turn a cold gaze from our surroundings as nobles and knights.

I guess this was also the aim of the live narrative of the war.

As a proud member of the aristocratic family, I create a wall of mind that I will never be able to go home like this.

The Admiral created this situation by tying the Rheinzatz army to the battlefield, which he might have pulled if it hadn't been for radio broadcasts and so forth, and continuing to spread the damage.

And even if we find that out, we can't pull it off in the Rheinzatz Army.

Because if you do that, it will eventually lead to the fall of the house.

The battle thus continued further with the shackles on his mind that the Rheinzatz army could never pull off.

As a result, further damage was to be caused.
