BELLUM PRAESINTIA Something Impressive From Enemy Troops
Dug! Dug! Dug...What kind of strange rumbling sound were they hearing? It seemed that from a distance, foreign dust was approaching the fortress.Those soldiers tried to observe it more closely, and what they saw next was a horde of troops riding fast on horseback."E-Enemy..."The loud shout echoed, spreading panic and making them hastily prepare.There wasn't much time for this; they needed to take control of the fortress as quickly as possible.The battlefield was not advantageous for the external troops; those inside could only watch the enemy from above and hope the plan could be executed without a hitch.Arrows were raining down from both sides and without mercy, they kept trying to take each other down."They seem so confident in taking this fortress! After receiving the news of King Haorman's defeat, don't they understand the troops here are much larger?" His face was arrogant as he gazed at his foes struggling below.He had a reasonable reason. Clearly, the position as a war
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Strive to Try to Give Victory
In a short time, Garlan's figure was already in front of him, his mind spinning quickly to find a solution to this situation.He was an officer and received condescending looks from the soldiers who standing there. It was only fitting for a military officer to choose to fight rather than flee.And here, he wasn't a strategic expert but a war general with the authority to lead attacking troops, not just issue orders from behind closed doors."Dangerous, what should I do?" He looked around. "Hey, are you all just going to stand there? Attack him..."It was a good thing for him to control the soldiers' desires, and for low-ranking soldiers, orders like this were absolute.They easily followed that man's desires, one by one approaching Garlan.They were confident in their attack.Crash...However, the evidence was clearly in front of them; the path to Garlan was already stained with endless blood.Crash...Once again, they were simply wasting valuable lives, one by one the soldiers fell t
BELLUM PRAESINTIA It is wrong to assume that the enemy has lost so quickly
The time for war had begun as the enemy troops launched their attack with great enthusiasm.Arrows continued to rain down on the fortress's inhabitants, who were not idle; they launched counterattacks."I wonder, what kind of troop is capable of reclaiming this place? Do they know the troops they are facing now are not easy to defeat?"Her body was muscular, with a fearsome smile, and eagle-sharp eyes, a woman named Rhea Exilis.It was well-known among the officers that she had a bad temper, and she wouldn't hesitate to break the neck of any soldier who looked down on her as a lowly woman.Garlan deliberately refrained from taking excessive action; he wanted to assess the enemy leader's abilities. It was clear the enemy had a mature strategy.They divided their troops to attack and defend. Some soldiers used shields while others, behind them, received support from archers.Each unit launched a relentless attack, but it was not as simple as it seemed.Some troops made a move, heading t
BELLUM PRAESINTIA The Experience of a Female Commander Facing the Horror of Chivalry
There is no word for retreat; for now, it's just proof of whether she can defeat that man or not at all.Rhea suppressed her fear, gazing at the man seriously."If I'm afraid here, I won't be able to defeat him. What should I be afraid of? He's just like most men."In her experience, she had faced many men, but none of them had managed to defeat her. They all seemed like trash who tried to take down a strong figure like her.That's how it should have been, but when the sound of horse hooves stopped, reality and illusion seemed to merge.An aura of intimidation made her whole body tremble, and her instincts urged her to get away from there. But, she didn't know how to get out of this mess.Running was an impossible option, and her pride seemed to refuse it.*Clang...*The sword rang, a sign of death for her, yet she was stoic, providing sustenance for death.So, she chose to fight, with all the courage she could muster.It might seem like a meaningless gesture, but at least she wanted
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Unexpected Things Appear After This Victory
"Rightly so..." She exclaimed, and everyone began to notice that woman's attitude. "What did you say earlier? Should we really give up on someone like you? I admit you are formidable, but I won't willingly give up."With a sharp gaze, she raised her sword and pointed it at Garlan. Her unwavering courage might scare others, but in Garlan's presence, such an appearance was unnecessary.This was nothing more than empty talk from those who had lost their faith in victory and survival. They always spoke as if their opponents didn't understand anything, and that was normal.Garlan could only sigh, realizing his earlier mercy had been ignored. He rarely showed mercy to his enemies, and now the consequences of being too kind to his enemies were apparent."Very well, if you choose death, I will speed up the process, and you won't even realize this battle ever happened."The air pressure instantly changed, and Rhea's body signaled there was no escape. From the beginning, she understood such a s
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Assuming that controlling a territory is a pleasant thing, that is wrong thinking
The victory Garlan achieved this time served as a pathway for launching an attack. They no longer needed to harbor doubts and continued advancing toward the Gandara region.Several areas had been easily conquered, taking only about 14 days for them to do so.Recovering their troop numbers could be done quickly, and even defeating the current enemy already seemed sufficient.But for Endra, this was too easy. He knew Garlan was indeed formidable, but this was too unusual.For now, he sat quietly, contemplating the map. The current state of the region had improved significantly from a warfare perspective, but when it came to aspects like the economy and people's welfare there were still many questions.They didn't know what conditions were like there, and everyone would suffer more each time warfare had to happen.It was too naive to think they would easily follow whoever was in power, as their current leaders were constantly changing.And a scenario like this required Elisa to step forw
BELLUM PRAESINTIA Unexpected Troops, It Turns Out They Are
Before making a decision, Garlan needed a mature plan. There wasn't much he could do here, expect relying on the information provided by the soldiers regarding the enemy troops they would face.And, as witnesses to the previous two soldiers' summons were called into the room, they were given time to rest and recover their strength.The next day was the time to discuss this further.In the discussion room with Garlan, they had a special opportunity. They had often been led by this man, but had never made a significant contribution."Alright, you both are here for a reason. Before the enemy launches an attack, we need to know who we are facing. Can you two tell the troops what kind of enemy we are dealing with?"They were a bit confused about how to respond to Garlan's firm tone, but they couldn't afford to waste any more time. They quickly prepared to address this problem.One of them finally began to speak, "The enemy we faced last time was different from the usual. General had led us
BELLUM PRAESINTIA A Tough Figure Who Can Never Be Predicted
For Garlan, the small escape that he made was nothing more than a foolish act. From a distance, he stared firmly at the flag raised by the enemy troops."So you've chosen a place to stand your ground, quite interesting! But, at least choose a much larger territory to support your life..."Dapion was disappointed to learn that Horman was not an ally of Garlan. Indeed, the conflicts like this seem to be just small matters and not the concern of outsiders.But he remained convinced that the mysterious figure of Garlan had fled to that territory to hide and build a new power.Just when he was starting to feel disappointed, destiny led him to meet in a situation like this.The recent situations were too surprising for him to think of them as just ordinary enemy troops. He briefly considered this might be the enemy's strength and intended to end it all, but unfortunately, it wasn't that simple."Attack the enemy troops..."The order in question was not for the entire troops but rather for o

Plans That Have Been Carefully Prepared
"She said that I must believe in the abilities within this body, which means I have to go back to the past..."The moment when one must sacrifice everyone fighting under his command, treating their lives as nothing more than tools to achieve victory.After becoming a minister, he gained a new understanding. The price of a single life was significant. Until now, he had considered lives as mere tools to attain victory.After a long time of forgetting this, he felt as though he was pushed back into his former wild spirit.No one can change this, and all time will converge at one point.Both sides appeared to have gathered with serious expressions, facing each other.Schlegel's troops wouldn't wait behind their fortress; they would directly destroy Switean's troops."What will you do this time?" Norsius asked with enthusiasm.It seemed the enemy was already starting to make their move, heading towards Liam's troops."Hehehe... so they're targeting me as their opponent? No problem, it's bo

This time the opponent has abilities that cannot be underestimated
On this extremely cold night, Garlan's face showed no sign of happiness.However, the lives of every soldier were precious; without them, this war would become even more challenging.It seemed the enemy troops were ready for attack.Rosa intentionally entered the tent to meet Garlan and found him sitting in front of a spread-out map.In reality, she feared that her presence might disturb his concentration, but she still wanted to meet with him.She began to tap softly, and when she was close enough, she said, "General..."Garlan slowly raised his head, the face of a girl he was familiar with, as he gazed at her nearly every day."What?""I apologize if I am interrupting your time, but I would like to discuss something...""Very well, please have a seat."An empty chair was occupied by the girl's body. It still felt awkward to be alone with Garlan in such a confined space. Even though there was no bed for intimacy, Rosa couldn't help but think about such things."So, what did you want

Prove Yourself With All Your Existing Abilities
"General Garlan, I understand! Even in this filthy world, there are still those who yearn for peace. It's true that peace must be achieved with bloodied hands! Only those who truly desire it will be ready to do it..."The soldiers observed Rosa's significantly different demeanor; she was more aggressive than before. Leading them, she charged at the enemy troops.With relentless strikes, she showed no signs of fatigue until they had reached the designated stopping point.The white-clothed man glared at them with resentment. "I didn't expect to encounter a disturbance here, but she's a woman, and she's already wounded facing that slave! She can't possibly be stronger than me!"Confidently, he drew his gleaming sword, and the sunlight made it look even more magnificent.However, it didn't mean much, as Rosa had experienced before. The wielder of a weapon mattered more, no matter how splendid the weapon appeared. If she regarded her opponent as much stronger, the sword was appropriate fo

Rosa quickly backs away, sensing unresolved danger.Lattham's face shows shock as he watches blood continue to trickle from his body. He uses his left hand to wipe his chest, and his palm becomes stained with fresh blood.His eyes start to be filled with memories of the past, with fires raging and blood everywhere. His hands bear fresh bloodstains from the woman in front of him."Astrid..."His passionate cry erupts in the midst of the battle, leaving those around him confused as to who he is mourning."Astrid? Who is that?" Rosa squints her eyes after witnessing a significant change in Lattham. "What happened to him?"slowly, Lattham lifts his head, and his eyes seem sharper than before, radiating an aura of hostility.The apparition transforms Rosa, turning the fully armored knight in front of him into a grinning adversary."I will kill you..."Quickly, he takes a step forward, and their swords swing simultaneously.Cracks...Until it touches the ground where Rosa stands, the dust s

"What is this..."The long chain binding the man's hands and feet spun and then charged toward Rosa.Spontaneously, Rosa leaped from atop her horse. Unfortunately, the chain bound her horse's legs and forcibly pulled it down.A chain reaction occurred when the soldiers following Rosa collided, and dust filled the air as a result of this incident.Fortunately, some of the soldiers at the rear had managed to stop due to the sudden incidents."What's happening?" a soldier asked. As he looked ahead, the dust revealed his comrades rolling on the ground, some with their bodies badly injured.Rosa, who had managed to evade the incident, could only gape at the crazed actions of the man."What is he doing? How can he do this, and why have the enemy troops suddenly kept their distance? What's happening here?""You won't know who you're dealing with; he's a long-imprisoned slave, and his wild disposition was his characteristic, Lattham..."Lattham's head lifted, uniquely, after his earlier actio

Rosa's decision to prove herself as the greatest female knight
Rosa needs to understand that using a fortress in warfare means defending within it; they can't just attack the enemy's troops directly.She already knows this from the lessons given, but she can't stand waiting for the enemy to attack."How long do I have to stay here? They've already started this war, their leaders should be responsible for what they've done..."She clenched her fists with all her might, but it was all in vain. She had to restrain the emotions inside her and wait for the right time.The soldiers there seemed much more useful than her, just watching like this was so boring, but most of the officers there were grateful not to plunge directly into the battlefield.Even in a situation like this, discussions about the plan were still ongoing, and it felt tiresome to discuss it."Now, the enemy is attacking with 700 people, which is much larger than the troops inside the fortress! The chance of winning is very small..." the leader troops warned."Of course, but if we just

They appeared surprised by the actions of the troops on top of the fort, their eyes quickly turned towards the torches intentionally used to illuminate the surroundings."Huh... do they think we're finished here? Well, we can use a bit of light to figure out our current location..."Vigilance continued as the fortress's lighting was still too dim."Leader, it seems that the enemy forces have been swept away by the attack," reported a soldier on top of the fortress.They couldn't see what was happening below, but from the visible body parts, it seemed like a large-scale massacre had occurred."So, they have indeed launched an attack!" Cold sweat dripped as he imagined a crazy action like that.Time could only be used to wait for morning; they couldn't move for the next few minutes.Remaining on high alert, when the sky began to lighten, they could finally assess their surroundings.Rosa, with her sharp eyes, observed the area and indeed saw many soldiers under her command."Are you all

An Attack That Was Perfectly Planned
"Of course, but we must not let them know about this attack! We have to strike when they believe the troops inside the fortress are just as before, only capable of defending against their attacks..." Rosa meant the most important factor, the enemy's reconnaissance scouts who were certainly ordered to monitor the fortress at various points.If they were to find out the troops inside the fortress were preparing to attack, the enemy would automatically shift to a combat-ready position."We don't know where the enemy's scouts are positioned, and, moreover, the nighttime will make our movements difficult," a weary-faced soldier pointed out."That's true, we don't know the enemy's troop locations, and, likewise, they can't confirm the attack we're planning. We need to observe first before they can execute that attack," Rosa replied.They began to understand, but there were still some incomplete details."So, who will lead the troops in the attack against the enemy?" the leader of the troop

Attitudes in Actions That Must Be Prepared to Take
"Hoam..."It's an annoying time. Rosa hasn't finished enjoying her sleep, but now she has to be in the room with the old men who look confused."This time they attacked us at night, targeting us when we didn't fight!" murmured the leader of the soldiers.It's indeed painful to be attacked when you want to rest.Rosa should be the one to mourn more. Her eyes blinked a few times to fight off drowsiness."Thanks to Miss Rosa's alertness, we didn't lose many soldiers!" praised one of the men.Unfortunately, Rosa didn't hear the praise clearly. Her head was down.Seeing no response, one of the men tried to wake her. "Miss Rosa!""Yes..."The man's tone was low, but Rosa's response was surprisingly strong, creating a hushed atmosphere.No one spoke for a few moments, watching this hilarious scene."Uh-oh... I've made a mistake! I don't want to return to the capital and face punishment, just like on my first day as a soldier.""Leader, if the enemy attacks again tonight, what should we do?"
