Cheonma Second Forest (2)

The fall of Cortas.

Upon hearing the soldier's report, Duke Bamford had mixed feelings.

'Dmitry. This was your plan.'

admired

Although it was a natural decision to capture Rascal and flee to the Western Front, Roman Dmitry went a step further and took Cortas.

The choice of Cairo and Dmitry coalition was now understood.

Their intention to secure time before abandoning the Western Front was a strong belief that Roman Dmitry would secure the warp gates of Cortas.

At the same time.

Anger swelled.

Dmitry's plan revealed a clear intention.

'The absence of warp gates means we are isolated. In order for reinforcements to arrive from now on, we will have no choice but to use the warp gate located hundreds of kilometers away from Cortas. However, despite our knowledge of that fact, we have not particularly strengthened the boundaries of Cortas. It's not that we overlooked the importance of Cortas, but that even if we succeed in such a ridiculous operation, it won't affect the general public.'

angry

Army of the Duke of Bamford.

They stormed the West with a whopping 300,000 troops, and even if they were isolated, there was no way they could handle this large number of troops from the front.

Although the Cairo and Dmitry coalition intentionally abandoned the Western Front, it was correct to say that they had no choice but to choose such a method due to the overwhelming difference in strategy.

Isolation was meaningless.

As it is, it's enough to wipe out Cairo and Dmitry.

but.

The Duke of Bamford was on the cautious side.

She is daring when making decisions, but as she anticipated Flora Lawrence's plan, she thought of unexpected variables.

'Now the enemy has only one option to choose. By deliberately avoiding an all-out war, it will hinder us from securing our supplies smoothly. The absence of a warp gate blocked our supply route. After all the food is consumed, there is no way to cope with the huge amount of food that 300,000 troops eat.'

Qing and Night tactics.

Enemies were sure to flee, destroying all the supplies they could use for food, and that was the only way to create a variable in this war.

Duke Bamford immediately summoned the leaders.

On the simple barracks table, I opened the map of the Western Front and found a suitable place.

????????????????????????

"From now on, we have to prepare for a long battle. If you push it all the way to the capital of Cairo, you will have no choice but to run out of food before then. Assuming that Kronos' supply forces will arrive west in a month at the latest, we can thwart the enemy's plans if we have enough food to hold on until then.

"Then how about this place?"

One of the leaders pointed to a place on the map.

It was an unnamed castle.

It was nothing more than an uninhabited castle, but the Kronos Intelligence Department found that this was the place where the Cairo Kingdom hid food in case of unforeseen circumstances.

Incidentally, it was not far from the current location of the Kronos Empire.

As the Cairo and Dmitry coalition, it would not be expected that the Kronos Empire would know the secrets of the castle, so if you occupy the castle, you can secure enough food to feed the army.

Two ways.

Either push in so fast that you can't even try the blue-and-field tactic, or take the safe route.

Normally, I would have chosen the former.

However.

Roman Dmitry's anomalous plan to take down Rascal and Cortas in succession, he decided that he might be sucked into something like this.

If you manage your troops stably.

The probability of the occurrence of a variable did not exist, and the day will surely come when Roman Dmitry's face will be put under his feet.

said the Duke of Bamford.

"We are heading to Goseong from now on."

* * *

The battlefield has changed.

Like Rascal, he saw a group of troops flocking to Teslo, an outpost in the eastern part of Kronos.

above the wall.

The commander of Tesla, Baron Zeckman, distorted his expression.

"The idea of using Cortas' Warp Gate to attack the rear. Roman Dmitry is really dreaming of a futile dream of victory over the Kronos Empire."

It was crazy.

About 30,000 troops came to the warp.

At that level, far from destroying Kronos' main force, in fact, it was an embarrassing force to capture Tesla in a short time.

I had no idea what Roman Dmitry was thinking.

He wanted to open the gates and blow Roman Dmitry's head off at any moment, but an unbreakable order came from the Duke of Bamford.

"If Dmitry's troops appear, start a sit-down. What we need is time. For sure victory, you don't have to follow the intentions of your enemies.

The battlefield maestro.

His orders were absolute.

No matter how overwhelming the power of the Kronos Empire, the battlefield where the Duke of Bamford appeared always achieved the maximum result with the least amount of damage.

That is why he was called the symbol of the military.

For a character like Baron Zeckman, there was no option to disobey orders by being drawn to the spirit of resonance.

That was then.

far away

A man walked by.

However, as soon as he confirmed that the "white flag" symbolizing dialogue had not been caught and that it was Roman Dmitry, Baron Zeckman hurriedly raised his voice.

"Attack! Stop Roman Dmitry from approaching the castle!"

Papa Papa.

The arrow was fired.

Darkness filled the sky, and it fell so heavily that it would turn Roman Dmitry into a hedgehog.

For ordinary soldiers, it was a creepy sight.

Even if he raised a shield to block it, there was no space for humans to escape from, enough to pierce the gap and pierce the flesh.

However.

Papa Papak.

Where the arrow fell, Roman Dmitry was no longer there.

has disappeared.

The moment he thought he was going to hit the ground, he ran so fast that he couldn't even catch up with an arrow.

"Stop it! Stop it!"

up the sky.

Arrows and magic fell.

He tried to block Roman Dmitry's approach, but even if he only got one or two hits, the intangible barrier made everything meaningless.

As Baron Zeckman, he didn't know what to do.

The gates of Teslo are firmly protected by magic defenses, but what the hell was he thinking of rushing in alone?

That moment.

Kwareung.

Curl rumble rumble.

reached in front.

An aura rose from Roman Dmitry's sword, and without hesitation he swung it towards the huge gate.

And.

people saw

The appearance of neatly cut steel.

The magic defense that appeared brightly was cut off at once like a castle gate.

Quang.

Curl rumble rumble.

The gates were opened.

At the same time, the soldiers of the Kingdom Union, who were waiting for the time, all shouted in unison.

"Attack!"

"Follow Roman Dmitry-sama, slay the hordes of evil!"

Tesla.

Their siege was unsuccessful in just one minute.

* * *

The moment the gates open.

Occupying the interior was only a matter of time.

With Roman Dmitry in the lead, Baron Zekman did not resist much and immediately surrendered.

"I will surrender!"

Kneel down.

hung a white flag

The pride of the Kronos Empire did not allow 'capitulation', but the Duke of Bamford meticulously prepared for the situation when Tesla fell.

"If you can't hold on for a while and give up your anger. Resist moderately, then choose surrender. It takes twice as many troops to monitor one prisoner, so your existence will only be a burden just for being alive. It won't kill you either. The existence of prisoners of war can be used as a target for 'trade' at any time, so there is little chance of slaughtering them in case of unforeseen circumstances."

Dmitry.

they were outliers.

Frankly, he was genuinely surprised by the force that cut through the gates, but Baron Zeckman did not show any anxiety about the situation he was facing.

I just say surrender with my mouth. Behind the horribly distorted expression, there was confidence in the Duke of Bamford who had given him an order.

like that.

The captured troops were gathered in one place.

However, the atmosphere was strange.

Those far away seemed to have no hope for the prisoners of war.

' strange. Usually, it is a one-way reaction to get information by offering us a conciliatory measure, but what are these guys thinking? I bet you're trying to kill us all. That doesn't make sense. Even considering the prisoners captured when the Western Front collapsed, I would never have made such a choice.'

The soldiers opened the way.

It was Roman Dmitry.

Roman Dmitry, who walked through them, grabbed Baron Zeckman's hair without asking any questions.

q

Ouch! Hey, what is this?!"

"Are you Baron Zeckman, the commander here?"

"No, that's right! No, no, that's right! But why are you doing this? If you would like information from me, or if you would like to ask for something else, please be gentle! This kind of treatment is not good for each other!"

exclaimed in confusion.

Seeing him wishing for fair treatment as a prisoner of war, Roman Dmitry looked down at him with a cold expression.

"I don't want anything from you."

" what it is."

Battle on the Western Front.

Then I heard that Count Nicholas had died.

And, perhaps, it was very likely that many soldiers who could not escape were captured as their prisoners of war.

if so.

What is your role as a commander?

Would it be right to show appropriate mercy to the prisoners of Kronos and induce the exchange of prisoners to guarantee the lives of those who believed in him and followed him?

The commander that people wanted might not be such an ideal figure.

However, the role of the commander was a little different in the way Roman Dmitry, no, Baek Joong-hyeok, the Cheonma, lived.

so that the lives of those who sacrificed are not in vain.

to achieve a sure victory.

In order to save the lives of the prisoners who had fallen into the hands of the enemy, there was no intention of driving other soldiers into their limbs.

chuck.

He put the sword on his neck.

Baron Zeckman was furious.

I didn't know that he would show such intent to kill so quickly.

"Hey, save me just once! If you spare my life, I'll give you some helpful information for Dmitry! And you have to save us. Wouldn't Dmitry's prisoners also be spared their lives?!

denied reality.

The Roman Dmitry the world speaks of.

He was cruel, but he was the kind of person who cherished his subordinates.

so.

mentioned the existence of prisoners.

Even for the exchange of prisoners, he hoped to spare himself.

"You seem to have misunderstood."

It was a cold voice.

"I have no mercy on the battlefield."

poof.

blood splashed

Baron Zeckman, who was raging, fell to his knees in the blood spurting from his neck.

body trembled. He tried to stop the bleeding with a pathetic hand to live, but it was a meaningless action.

Beyond that.

I could see the frightened prisoners.

Roman Dmitry said coldly.

"We will not make prisoners. So, kill all these guys."

that time.

Duke Bamford arrived at Goseong.

I thought there would be a military force to protect the food, but there was not a single ant cub inside the fortress.

entered the castle.

In case there were any traps, the Duke of Bamford gave the order.

"It is possible that the enemies have already burned all their food and fled. Check the existence of food, and wizards check if there are magic traps installed around them. When we are convinced that everything is perfect, we will bring our troops into the castle."

Okay.

If everything is perfect.

It was not luck, but rather a trap.

The soldiers moved in unison.

After such a long time, they said with a bright face.

"We have food. There is no problem eating them, and if you combine them with the food you already have, you can survive for a month."

"There are no magic traps. I couldn't find any magical energy anywhere in the castle, so I installed a magic defense that reacts to explosions just in case. Even if the enemies are doing stupid tricks. It will give us enough time to respond."

It was perfect.

So, it was oddly ominous.

Duke Bamford stepped forward and checked the food with his own eyes.

It's somehow.

They seemed to be considering them to stay here.
