Continental Conquest (7)

thump thump.

A fire broke out in the ruined land.

Kevin looked around tiredly and found Edwin Hector tidying up the situation.

"Let the search team check out the survivors, and make room for the rest to rest. After getting enough rest here, we will move on to our next destination."

this battle.

It was truly a win.

Count Jean-Pierre was constantly swung to and fro, and his neck was blown away, and it was not difficult to capture the fortress afterwards.

Everything went according to Edwin Hector's plan.

How to attack the enemies, how to respond according to the enemy's movements, etc. It was a perfect fit to the point where you get goosebumps.

a few days ago.

Edwin Hector told Kevin the plan.

"Before we attack our enemies, we need to understand the current situation. Those who are not currently under the decree have been ordered not to back down. For them, who are preparing for a deadly fight, the fact that the Kingdom Union has been split into three is likely to be taken as an opportunity. We have to hit that part."

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

unfolded the map.

Except for the fortress that Count Jean-Pierre was holding, there were still three territories where troops were still standing.

All of this information came from Hao Mun.

Even amidst the chaos of the war, they melted among the refugees and secretly sent information to convey the ever-changing situation.

"Now I will explain the plan. Once, Kevin will enter Fort Jean-Pierre through the waterway. Enemies will be fully prepared, so don't overdo it, deal with the guards openly and set off for everyone to see. If so, the enemy must be nervous at the thought that an intruder has entered inside with the army of the Kingdom Confederation in sight at just the right time. We will keep an eye on the situation. Count Jean-Pierre has no choice but to make a decision if he makes his enemies sleep through the night, devouring his stamina, and giving him enough time to think. Rather than collapsing like this, call in reinforcements and try to counterattack. The fact that Roman Dmitry is not here will make them comfortable."

Edwin Hector reached out and picked up the horse.

After moving the horses symbolizing the three lords around them, they put them down on the narrow path.

"It is the shortest route that the surrounding lords can travel. If they want to join forces and move quickly, they must pass through here. That's your chance. After tricking the Kingdom Union's soldiers into motion with illusion magic, the main force will ambush here. And if enemies arrive, use their geographic advantage and magic to defeat them. When the news is delivered to Count Jean-Pierre and ready to attack the fortress, Kevin can move on his own and open the enemy's gates. Due to the accumulated fatigue and the news of the annihilation of the surrounding lords, they have no choice but to expose their loopholes."

admired

all situations.

Edwin Hector looked into the situation as if foreseeing the future, and Kevin believed in him and started the operation.

In fact, his role was very risky.

It didn't make sense to open the gates through a space infested with enemies, having to go inside through a waterway and enduring a few days.

That's why Edwin Hector described the situation as funny.

It was an operation that could never be carried out with Hector's power, but I knew from experience that it would be a different story if I dealt with Roman Dmitry's people.

and.

The plan succeeded.

In a situation where the surrounding area had been devastated in just a few days, Kevin had a strong conviction.

'With a commander like this. We can reach the capital faster than Chris-sama.'

burning competitive spirit.

With a thirst that seemed to burn his throat, Kevin wandered around looking for survivors for a long time.

* * *

that time.

The 2nd Army, led by Chris, was still marching.

It was mostly because they retreated after emptying the fortress, and the news that they had set up a major first reached Chris' ears.

Incredible. Have you already cleaned up the lords around you? I can see why people overestimate Hector's Star. If he had not been born as a prince, he would surely have succeeded."

"I think the same."

It was Felix.

Chris nodded his head in sympathy, but didn't seem to care much.

This was the situation I had expected from the beginning.

Having experienced Edwin Hector's abilities firsthand, he was convinced that the synergy would be great if he commanded a strong army like Dmitry.

Besides.

Kevin's performance in making the strategy a perfect success, Chris thought it was rather enjoyable.

'You are now a swordsman worthy of Dmitry. But I have no intention of ever giving up my seat. No matter how much you fight from the beginning, we will be the first to arrive in the capital.'

"Everyone, stop. I will rest here."

all right.

The day was getting late.

After ordering the soldiers to rest, Chris summoned the leaders who followed him.

Felix asked.

"According to information, enemies are gathering at a fortress two days away. What are you going to do? If we were to try a normal siege, our damage would be too much."

I agree. Right now, Jeonggongbeop is not a very good option."

looked at the map.

From your current location to the capital.

There were about three points to watch out for on the way back to the south.

If a lot of time is wasted in the battle with the enemy guarding it, the 2nd Army, led by Chris, has no choice but to arrive in the capital last.

It was a picture Chris didn't want.

Aside from competing with Kevin, if you spend such a long time, the Kingdom Union will wait until all the troops are gathered.

blast furnace.

A strategy was needed.

Chris' gaze stayed on the area marked 'Kreit'.

"Those who remain in the South. They have something in common. It was not that they were not included in the decree, but that they themselves would not obey the orders of the Marquis of Memphis. It's clear why they act that way. Around the time of the POW incident. The death of the Marquis of Creut, who was once regarded as the ruler of the Kronos Empire, has occurred. It is known that the reason was a summary execution by protest, but the truth was that it was an arbitrary decision of the Marquis of Memphis, not an order of the emperor."

"That means ."

Yes. From now on, the people we have to deal with are the people of the Marquis of Creut. They were lost by the death of the Marquis of Creut. They did not comply with the summons in response to the reaction against the Marquis of Memphis, but since they could not compromise on the unity of the kingdoms, they came together. We will attack the rift in their hearts. If you make yourself open the gates, you can go straight to the capital without bleeding."

Ah!

The leaders were amazed.

It was the perfect plan.

I had no choice but to exclaim with admiration at the situation where the existence recognized as a force proved even witty.

asked one of the chieftains.

"What will you do if your enemies do not compromise?"

"Then it was simple."

expression changed.

Chris showed his ferocious teeth.

"I'm going to put them in one place to negotiate, and then I'm going to smash my foes in one blow. If there is no room for negotiation. There is no need to take care of them."

* * *

Time has passed.

The news that arrived one after another every day and night made the Marquis of Memphis choked.

"The Count Jean-Pierre and the surrounding lords have all been annihilated!"

"Marquis! The men of the Marquis of Creut, who did not comply with the summons, gave up fighting and surrendered to the Kingdom Union. The South was completely eaten up. It is only a matter of time before they push into the capital."

"Roman Dmitry ."

All.

It was news of the war.

My head was spinning tight.

The Marquis of Memphis slumped down in his chair, muttering out of embarrassment.

" How could this happen?"

defeat in the past.

understood.

Roman Dmitry knew that there was no guarantee of victory against him, since he was the monster that even Alexander had defeated.

But Chris and Edwin Hector were different.

On the battlefield without Roman Dmitry, Kronos must win, but the news he heard was a shockingly disastrous defeat.

It was truly overwhelming.

The Kingdom Union quickly pushed in in three directions, and no matter how much troops were gathered in the capital, it collapsed so quickly that it was incomprehensible.

The corners of my eyes trembled.

He wanted to deny it, but at this rate, the future of the Kronos Empire could not be guaranteed.

'Alexander. The problem was that he revealed his identity.'

Aura's harbinger.

As the one who once represented Kronos was thrown into the gutter, the interior of the Kronos Empire became chaotic.

And there were people who said they couldn't follow the current emperor.

Among them, the most representative group were the magicians of the tower.

They confirmed the fact that Kronos was involved in the disappearance of the wizards, and stated that they could no longer coexist with Kronos.

It was from then.

Kronos stumbled.

In a situation where the powers of the empire could not be united, the existence of Roman Dmitry was an unbearable disaster.

However.

Chris and Edwin Hector.

With troops coming in from both directions, they weren't the main issue for the Marquis of Memphis.

said the lieutenant.

"Even the last bastion has been captured. In the next few days, the main force under Roman Dmitry will reach the vicinity of the capital."

soon.

he will appear

Roman Dmitry.

The monster that brought Kronos into disaster.

The Marquis of Memphis bowed her head and turned away from reality even for a moment.

* * *

Finally.

The capital of Kronos was visible.

Roman Dmitry took the most difficult route, but reached his destination before any other troops.

Once the soldiers were on standby.

Then.

He walked alone towards the capital.

" Roman Dmitry."

"He showed up."

"Damn it."

above the wall.

The soldiers of Kronos showed a look of terror.

Roman Dmitry.

My legs trembled at the fact that the demon of the battlefield had appeared, and I hoped that the reality in front of me was not the truth.

But the water has already spilled.

Kronos was fully prepared, and no matter what happened from now on, a weak heart was not allowed.

stand tall.

stopped walking.

Roman Dmitry looked around the soldiers, putting mana in his voice.

"This is the last time. surrender."

short words.

A sweet proposal to persuade the other party.

There was no exhaustive explanation.

Roman Dmitry, who delivered a brief message, met countless eyes with cold eyes.

Did one minute pass?

After a time that felt like aeons for the soldiers of Kronos, Roman Dmitry opened his mouth.

"Now there is no chance."

to end it.

He walked away without saying a word.

Seeing Roman Dmitry gradually disappearing from sight, the soldiers of Kronos faced the cold reality.

It was really over.

either die or live.

They no longer had a chance to choose.

* * *

a few days later.

The troops of Chris and Edwin Hector also joined.

Chris arrived first by just one day, but neither Chris nor Kevin gave much importance to who arrived first.

The presence of Roman Dmitry, who arrived a few days early.

Because they didn't live up to their expectations, I thought that indirect confrontation wasn't a big deal right now.

in front of you.

There was Kronos.

The meeting proceeded without even having time to take a break, seeing that the Cheolongseong Fortress, which they were proud of, was holding up.

Roman Dmitry said.

"We are in two days. I will destroy the capital of Kronos."

"Are you going to choose the Jeonggong method?"

it was chris

Kronos.

It won't break down like this.

Unlike the previous battles, it will not be decided in a day or two, and many people will die to destroy the impregnable castle.

Even though I knew that, I had to deal with it.

Ever since he refused to negotiate with the Marquis of Memphis. There was no way to capture the capital without bloodshed.

However.

no. Before we attack the capital, we will confuse them. Lucas."

Yes.

on the other side of the conference room.

His eyes focused on Lucas.

Even key executives like Chris had never heard of the story that was about to begin.

said Lucas.

"From now on, I will tell you about the operation that the Intelligence Guild has been conducting secretly."

few years ago.

Even before the war with Kronos broke out.

Lucas received an order from Roman Dmitry.
