Giulio was accompanied by ten military ships that were blockading the port.

There was a match at this point.

As expected, we couldn't just bombard the city, so ten military ships followed us, and as they built ships in the harbor, sailors rushed under Julio.

In this situation, the naval personnel who were not out in the sea will also fall for Julio.

We have the Duchy Navy.

"From now on, the Duchy Navy will be under my command!"We will immediately capture the Admiral and scatter the Duke's army surrounding the castle! ”

Hah!

The Duchy Navy brings together elites.

There is a big difference in training between duke soldiers and marines who are training day and night.

The Duchy Navy is elite, not only at sea, but also on land.

It's only a matter of time before we secure the castle.

"Captain Mesto"

"This is Prince Arnold."

I led my men into battle against the Duke's army, and I held back the Mesto.

There was something to be concerned about.

"I need a little help."

"Hah! What do you want?!" The crew of my ship are well-trained!I can do any task! "

"I was relieved to hear that.How many ships can your men sail out of the harbor? ”

"Does that mean... you're going to send out a ship?" Which way? "

"Anyway, you just have to get out of the harbor."

“How much time do you have?”

As soon as possible.

I couldn't understand what I was saying, and the mest had a confused expression on his face.

But I quickly switched my mind and started giving instructions to my men.

Roger that! Divide into small groups and prepare the ship for departure!Any boat! Get as many ships out of the harbor as you can! "

Should I be calling myself a soldier?

It's good to be quick.

My men were trying to get to the castle, but they were not complaining about the mysterious order to get the ship ready to sail.

“I'll try as hard as I can, but preparing for a small group to sail is a difficult task.I wonder if I can get all the ships out. "

"As much as possible"

“May I ask why?”

"No matter how much the Duchy Navy needs a ship, it will be powerless in the Kingdom War."At a time of intense defeat, the Kingdom will aim to reduce the fighting power of the Duke's Navy. That's what I would do. "

“You think I'm going to get my boat?”

"It's quick. The castle is unexpectedly captured."We may still be able to make it. Get as many ships out of the harbor as you can.If you're not at anchor, you won't be able to do anything. "

Listening to the reason, Mesto nodded with a steep face.

Even if it's crafted, if it's not berthed, we won't be able to operate it.

We can't have anything remotely installed on every ship of the Duchy Navy.There's no way we could have that number.

It was easy to find, but I didn't have much power to move around.

It would be more practical to evacuate them to the safety zone.

"For the Duchy Navy, a ship is a life.If you're being targeted, I want more people. "

"When you get rid of the Duke's army from the harbor, only you and your men will be able to use it."It will take too much time to devote more strength to the fight.Not without reinforcements from the fort, and just in case the castle is recaptured by the Duke's army.I'm sorry, but it's more human than ship. "

"Understood. I will follow your Highness's advice."Well, I'll be joining you, Your Highness Giulio. ”

Leave it to me.

After such a conversation, I went to the castle with the Lars who kept me company.

■■■

"Hey, Finne, it's nice of you to turn the situation around at the right time."

I hope this helps.

Finne greeted me as I entered the castle after I scattered the Duke's army trying to recapture the castle.

Behind them was Lord Albatro.

"The Seventh Prince of the Empire, Arnold Lakes Adler, greets His Majesty.I'm glad you're okay. ”

"It's all thanks to the prince." You saved Giulio so much. "

"Father! Are you hurt!?"

"Oh, no problem."

Julio, who was in command of the Navy, came into the throne room a little late.

Then he rushed to his father.

It's been a long time since we had a reunion of parents and children.

I didn't mind interrupting, so Finne and I went out to the balcony.

It looks like you've moved Lord Rondine well.

"I don't know if it's going to work... but Lord Danio of the Duke of Rondine has made a serious decision for me."

"You owe me." I'll write you a letter. "

If you do that, I wonder if you can guarantee Danio's position as well.

I look towards the harbor with a nod.

There, berthed military ships were sinking into the sea as the flames rose.

Was it a magic tool or a magic cannon?It was like a powerful magic explosion.

Mesto seems to have worked pretty hard, but only a few ships were able to leave the port.

The mainstay of the Duchy's navy is the military ships stationed in the harbor.

It can be said that the strength of the Duchy's navy has been halved.

"The battle in the Duchy of Albatro is our victory."However, the original goal of drawing in the navy of the Duchy of Albatro was only half achieved. ”

"The Duke of Rondine had a kingdom maiden sent in.I was expecting this to head for Lord Rondine. "

"Did you turn your hand on Rondine after all?"It was thoughtful, and even if I fell, I wouldn't have woken up for free.You really are a troublesome opponent, aren't you? "

It holds firmly where it needs to be held.

If I know I'm going to lose, I'll do as much damage as I can to make it a good way to lose.

"Sebastian"

"Here."

"Go to the fort with Nerbe Ritter. If they're hitting on you, take the head of the Ambassador of the Kingdom, Marcel."

I see. What if you're not clumsy?

We will soon abandon the fort and move to secure the port.

Well then, shouldn't we head for the port city?

"There was also a powerful cultivator on the other side."We can't break through unless it's time for chaos.If you're not in the fort, give it up. "

Got it.

That's what Sebastian said and disappeared.

Now there's nothing left for me to do.

Barnabas, the Duke's son, has disappeared somewhere, but I know who I can rely on.

If we had talked about heading for the fort or when the city fell beforehand, we would have headed for the port city.

Marcel will return to the Kingdom, but the remaining nobles will surrender to us.

Marcel should have prepared the gift of the moment.

So we don't have to use people to find them.

This time, it's about pain separation.

"But the purpose was reached even if it was incomplete.Isn't it okay to say "win"? "

"Thanks to you." I was the only one who lost. "

"It was Lord Al's instructions that we headed for Lord Rondine."Victory is the commander's business, just as the responsibility for defeat lies with the commander.Al left Sebastian and Rinfia behind, and I was able to move the Duchy of Londine.It's all Mr. Al's fault. "

"I can see it that way." Let's do that.I feel better that way.Well, I guess they don't think so. "

By accepting Finne's claim, I decided to convince myself of my victory.
