Episode 147
##147
The troops led by Lian circled around and flanked Earl Thomond.
It was an underused road, and there were reasons for it.
The roads were rough and it was difficult for a large unit to move.
Not only that, but it is a disadvantageous position in battle.
Visibility was poor, so it was vulnerable to surprise attacks.
“Enemy!!!”
As expected, Thommond was spotted before he could even get close.
“what… what!!! Where the hell are those troops… … .”
Count Thomond was confused by the troops appearing from his rear flank.
“That’s the flag… … .”
“What about the flag?!”
“This is the Ingleson flag! And you can see the family tree of Atrone and Derga. also… The unidentified flag and the old) Ormond flag… … .”
“what?!!”
Anyone can create a flag, but it can cause serious problems later without the permission of interested parties.
The offense of contempt of nobility does not apply only to commoners.
It is much more serious for a noble to impersonate another noble.
Worst of all, it also provides a reason for several nobles to unite, so you shouldn’t use other people’s family flags recklessly.
Even if it’s just the aristocracy, but what if it’s a state?
“crazy!!! Was that true?”
Count Thomond heard nonsense about the second heir of Count Atrone coming.
I sent him back after swearing at him, but it was actually a little uncomfortable.
-My maternal cousin is Lian Leon… An honorary marquis… A rebellion in southern Desmond… Ingleson’s commander-in-chief… … .
The key points were those three things.
The least credible among them is the popular uprising in Desmond.
so what did that mean?
No matter how violent the uprising was, a foreign kid would be given the title of Marquis and Commander-in-Chief?
“Isn’t that to make it easier to retrieve the post of commander-in-chief later?!! Anyway, if a foreign kid has the title of honorary marquis, he won’t have any influence in Korea. The real commander-in-chief is Count Atronae!!”
The adjutant urgently spoke to Count Thomond.
“no. No matter how much it is, Count Artrone is not such a reckless nobleman!”
Count Atrone, who can be considered the most influential aristocrat on Airy Island.
Although he lost a lot of strength due to the loss of his prominent children, he was an aristocrat who knew honor.
If all of the above were indeed true, I would have politely asked for your cooperation in a handwritten letter.
Even if it wasn’t for that, he would have sent his son-in-law, the first, not the second.
By the way, the second is the son-in-law of Count Oslager, who is like a thorn in the eye.
“It is, but… Holding the flag of Ingleson itself is a problem. Fear of being branded as a rebel… … .”
“You just have to make an excuse that you knew it through an impersonation! who would believe Besides, we were at war with Oslager!”
It is natural to doubt the existence of a new force suddenly appearing in a state of war.
There is no such thing as unconditional blasphemy.
Even from Ingleson’s point of view, I’m not going to take a hard line.
If you run the country without flexibility and mercy, you may lose the loyalty of other nobles.
“More than that. fewer numbers. To call it the central army.”
“that… It is.”
“It’s a bit embarrassing to see Derga’s flag, but the flag of the old Count Ormond family is ridiculous. Did the ghost come back alive?”
“It is an army with a little bit of doubt. How do I do this?! Count.”
It was a situation where they were having fun while biting the back of Oslager’s head as they ran away with excitement.
“Turn halfway back to stop them. Still, the number will be many of us. The terrain is much better. Do you have the guts to come up here in the first place?”
If he hadn’t been beating Oslager, the youngster of the union, five minutes before that sh*t, would have gone to the front and destroyed it.
Topographically, even if Lian defended, it was at a disadvantage.
It was the reason why the Countess of Atrone in the distant past could not advance further south even with this fortress.
Maybe it’s the limits of the Albezal fortress.
Meanwhile.
Lian smiled as he saw his opponent moving and regrouping.
However, Julia Der, who was standing next to her, showed a little uneasiness.
“master. It is too disadvantageous.”
Because it was accepted voluntarily, the imprinting of slaves was over in just a few hours.
Should I say that the voice of the master is easily wrapped around my mouth?
However, because he accepted the imprint while maintaining his reason intact, he maintained almost all of his personality except for his loyalty to Lian.
“We have hemp cloth.”
“I know that the power of horse cannon fired from lowlands to highlands is halved.”
“You learned well. Julia.”
“It’s a situation like this, but I’m glad to be praised by the master.”
She looked genuinely happy.
Although almost all of her personality was retained, her thoughts were not completely free.
This is why the word ‘slave’ is added in front of the engraving.
If that word hadn’t been attached, those in power at the highest level, such as kings and emperors, would have abused the imprint.
Among the ancient countries, there are quite a few countries that have been ruined as a side effect. The trend that only voluntary loyalty is real loyalty has arisen and settled down now.
“Still, there is a big difference between having hemp and not having it.”
If you shoot it from a highland to a lowland, it will move forward and show the power of tearing several bodies apart, but if it is the other way around, you can’t expect a dramatic production.
At best, I’ll hit a few people and knock them to the ground.
“The difference in numbers is also huge.”
“You don’t have to worry about that. Julia, your troops aren’t that weak in the first place.”
Frankly, if it weren’t for Lian’s artillery and the advantage of the high ground, he thought he wouldn’t have fallen so easily.
That is why I am now a slave.
It was sad, but it felt like being a slave wasn’t bad… … .
“Let’s see. Let’s see. See you over there! Uncle Sebas. Send it to the right side first.”
“All right. Captain.”
When Sebas gave the signal, Count Atroné’s troops on the right began to climb the steep hill.
The left wing or the center seemed rather better, except for advancing the right wing, which seemed the most disadvantaged, first.
“master. Are you not providing artillery support?”
“I only brought five doors. If you shoot now, you won’t be able to demonstrate your strength at the critical moment. Because today’s main character is you, Julia.”
The der flag was raised, but more importantly, who participated in the war.
No family knew about Der’s succession war yet.
So, you still know that Julia Der is going to be a powerful next countess.
Ride and ride!!!
Then a skirmish broke out on the right wing.
The opponent, who had the upper hand on the hill, fired a horse gun.
aaa!!!
Atrone’s soldiers who were hit by horse guns rolled backwards.
However, the morale is not broken.
“Stupid bastards. Because you dress so fancy You don’t become a target.”
The first soldier saw the second soldier tumble down and made a sarcastic remark.
Those who fought for each other’s lives not too long ago are advancing shoulder to shoulder.
“joy!! Do you think your baron doesn’t know that he didn’t wear his military uniform properly because he didn’t have money? If you are envious, be envious!!”
Phew~~!
As he spoke, a bullet passed between the two of them.
nonetheless don’t care.
“what?!! Fight with clothes! wait and see Who goes up first!!! I will be the first to go upstairs and receive the elixir.”
One of the soldiers who said that gritted his teeth and started jumping up.
In his hand was neither a horse gun nor a shield, but only a spear.
“I… those guys!! You are crazy!”
From the point of view of the officers who have to control the soldiers, it is a matter of going crazy and jumping up and down.
Originally, the basic form was for horsemen to break the opponent’s line with a volley and then melee infantry to be deployed.
However, regardless of whether it was a horseman or a spearman, they went crazy and ran up the hill as if there was a beautiful woman.
“They met the stupid owner. You are becoming stupid too.”
“what?! How dare you insult my lord… … .”
“The Musketeer ordered a quick charge. Do you think it will be possible to charge after firing a salvo?”
“Even so, this is reckless!!!”
The enemy who camped on the hill stood in front of the horseman according to doctrine.
They’ll probably switch positions with the melee infantry right before a melee engagement takes place.
Then, while safely protected from behind, you will aim your shot.
“How reckless! this is an opportunity You will be there forever! Move!! Move!! these guys hahahaha!!”
After saying that, the low-ranking knight carried a halberd that looked like a long ax attached to a spear on his shoulder and started running like crazy.
“my… sh*t. I do not know.”
Even though he was a knight, he was in a pitiful situation because he was in charge of an officer in charge of commanding infantry, not cavalry.
If the realm rises even a little, the status may also rise.
The elixir that Lian said he would give as a reward a while ago flickers in my eyes.
aaa!!!
Atrone-kun climbed the hill like a zombie even though he was completely outnumbered.
Of course, receiving the elixir is not easy.
Can one of the people here get it?
It doesn’t matter though.
The reward was definitely promised.
With that reward, you can buy and eat even a low-level elixir sold on the market.
Ride on and on!!
On the top of the hill, only horse guns were still firing, but there was no proper countermeasure.
“I… I think they took some medicine!!”
“Do you know why drugs are so cheap?! Feed those lesser soldiers.”
or reduce fear. or elevate the mood. There are medications that can alleviate the pain.
However, since it is handmade and not mass-produced, the price is not cheap.
There are definitely armies that use these drugs, but they are very determined and supply them in desperate times.
That is also true for the elite.
However, those guys never looked like the elite.
wow wow!!!
The battle lines looked like zealots to be found.
In fact, besides the compensation, they were exhausted from the daily battles.
The fight between the two counts, Thormond and Oslager, was on a large scale, so they didn’t fight every day, but Atrone’s foolish brothers were small, so they fought every day.
Perhaps those who survived would not be lying even if they said to their descendants, ‘We only ate rice and fought.’
Thomond and Atronae fought for the same length of time, but the temperatures were completely different.
“I… Enemies have arrived!!”
So, it was the left wing of Count Thomond who was taken aback.
“sh*t!! stop it! We have more numbers!!”
Even before the battle, the number was higher, but there were also those who were hit by horse guns and fell off, so the number was clearly higher now.
“my… I came up first!!!!!
Among them, one soldier with a spear roared and charged at the enemy.
“I… That guy!!!”
The three bewildered horsemen aimed at the Atrone soldier who came up first.
bang! bang! bang!!
Although three gunshots sounded like one.
“Uh ha ha ha ha ha!!! Don’t die!!”
He rolled across the floor, surprisingly dodging all three bullets.
To be honest, there were some lucky ones, but it was the difference between those who fought every day and those who didn’t.
The horseman was basically a mana user, but the difference in experience could not be ignored.
Degururu ~~~ Puk!!!
The soldier who was terribly rolling on the floor thrust a spear into the stomach of one of the horsemen.
Pasasasak!!!
Light emitted from the spear, and a large hole was formed in the horseman’s body.
It was a disposable magic circle engraved on the spear to deal with Auto Horse and the Great Knight.
“back… backwards! Horseman, step back!!”
But, it was already too late.
It was relatively high, so I couldn’t properly grasp the distance.
The officers tried to fire one more shot and switch, but the enemy’s charge was much faster than expected.
Pasasasak!
Crispy!!!
Pasasasasak!!
A chilling sound of flesh exploding spread from all directions.
not only.
Ride on and on!!
In the meantime, the horsemen who had been running towards the hill without firing a single shot belatedly aimed their shots at the enemy.
The accuracy and power were much stronger than when shooting from a distance.
“sh*t. Did I get it wrong?”
In fact, the first to reach the hill had to be a horseman.
Since you are a mana user, your physical physique is excellent.
However, because it was not a melee class, the pace was slowed down.
“I thought the first one to arrive would be killed unconditionally.”
By the way, the spearman who arrived first was still alive and wielding a spear soaked in madness.
“Don’t die!!”
“I don’t die, oh oh oh !!!”
He fights with a sloppy and uneasy form, perhaps because he hasn’t been properly trained, but strangely, he doesn’t die.
Maybe his torso vision is better than others.
“oh… that guy If you survive, you will be the first prize winner.”
Lian, who was watching it from a distance with a telescope magic tool, also looked at it curiously.
