Otherworld Nation Founding Chronicles

Episode 277: The First Pofenian War: Second Year

Around the time Alms and others were running around in their homeland and desperately building a fleet ...

One-third of the island was under the control of the Romanian kingdom.

The remaining third is under the control of Pofenia.

And the last third are the cities that are under Pofenian control but plan to turn to the Romanian kingdom.

Around the west where Alexius marched ... Most of the west of Trisiceria was in the hands of the Romanian kingdom.

After the defeat of Alexius of Kepka Barka and David Barka, who were opposed to Alexios, the situation suddenly leaned to Alexios.

As the western cities rolled over to the Romanian kingdom, Kepka Barka was forced to withdraw significantly.

However, Kepka Barka regained his position and defended his defenses thoroughly.

Despite Alexius, it's not easy to defeat an opponent in a shell.

As a result, the war stalled.

On the other hand, the East side where Bartolo was in charge ...

Most cities were still Pofenian.

For Seal Barka was guarding this side.

Ceal Barca realized that the Romanian army was much stronger than the Pofenian army and that Bartolo's ability was equal to or better than his own, and concluded that a head-to-head battle would not be victorious.

Bartolo never gave a strategic focus, while continuing to avoid the decisive battle.

Bartolo also realized that Sial Barca was so powerful that he could not force himself.

As a result, the front was completely stuck.

But ...

After discovering that the Romanian kingdom was building a large number of ships, Ceal Barca returned to his home country temporarily.

The aim was to eliminate the hindrance of the Plain Party led by Azul Hanno and build a large fleet.

Apart from the Romanian kingdom, the Barkas also fought with a political enemy named Azul Hanno.

From the Barkas' perspective, both were equally enemies.

Upon confirming that Ceal Barca had departed from Trisiceria, Bartolo took immediate action and set off on the offensive.

Bartolo began to attack with the breaking momentum.

After Sear Barka, Belshazzar Barka, who was in charge of general command, thought he could not protect and burned the city and village. He withdrew south while looting.

As a result, many of the eastern cities fell to the Romanian kingdom.

Sicily, the largest city in Trisiceria.

Sicily, a Greek colonial city, also has a poor feeling against pofenia.

This Sicily is one of the most populated cities in Trisiceria with one or two competing harbors, and wheat fields in the suburbs.

It was a strategic landmark for the Romanian kingdom.

And ...

Three days after Belshazzar Barka withdrew, the city was fluttering with a griffon flag.

"Is it finally possible to see the victory? I don't think so, Seoyoung."

"Yeah……"

During the natural truce, So-Yeon returned from Alexius to Ron ...

He did not enjoy the great war that his husband raised.

"What's wrong?"

"Hmm ... why was it so easy to capture ...?"

"Well, Bartolo-san's offensive was strong. Did you see? Belshazzar Barka is going away at a glance."

Ron remembers the fight against Belshazzar.

Bartolo completed a temporary but siege, defeating Belshazzar Barqa indefinitely.

On the rugged Trisiceria, the army of the Romanian shield, daggers, and lances also worked very well.

As a result, Belshazzar Barka was deprived of the city of supplies by Bartolo, forcing him to lower the battlefield significantly.

One of the cities that Belshazzar Barka abandoned is Siceria.

Ron seized Sicalia without effort.

"But ... is Sicalia a strategic landmark? Isn't it easy to get it?"

"that is……"

Ron is stuck in words.

Ron had been pursuing Belshazzar as the vanguard, but he certainly felt that Belshazzar was too weak.

Belshazzar, at least according to Alexios's assessment, should be a more capable general.

Why did you lose so badly?

……, and there was cold running on Ron's spine.

I had a bad feeling.

“General Aemilius!

So Ron noticed.

The troops have been completely surrounded.

"It was worth the loser. Goofy prey got caught on the net."

Belshazzar smiled happily while looking at the siege under the siege.

Belshazzar's defeat to Bartolo, his graceful retreat, and the surrender of Siceria to Ron were all plans of Belshazzar.

Siceria is a big city ...

A metropolis does not consist of a single independent city.

It is formed by several satellite cities, and also satellite cities.

Even if you surrender to Sicily, it is easy to get it back if the surrounding cities are still alive.

Disagreeable……

Rather, Sicalia can be completely isolated.

This is because all the roads leading from Siceria, through which troops can pass, are occupied by small and medium-sized cities controlled by Pofenia.

Ron and Siceria were already on the palm of Belshazzar.

But here is one question.

How did Belshazzar fool Ron's eyes?

But it's not that difficult.

It's rather easy.

in short……

Don't lick Barca?

That's what it means.

The island of Triscieria has been developed since the ancient times by the Barcas, who reached out to the conquest.

From end to end on Trisqueria, the Barkas know everything.

On the rugged Trisiceria, it is difficult even for locals to locate all roads, villages and cities.

So no matter how the Kingdom of Romaria gets the support of the Christians ...

It is not possible to fully understand the terrain of Trisiceria.

So ...

Using the Barca family's secretly built roads and bases ...

It is easy to gradually break down and fall back in the process of withdrawal and turn back.

Once reduced, the strength of Belshazzar was reduced to 80,000 after recruitment.

At last, 10,000 troops gathered from Trisiceria and 20,000 reinforcements from Pofenia's home country finally joined.

The new 30,000 is the work of Seal Barca, who persuaded the Senate Pofenia with a tight purse.

This reversed the situation, both in troops and in the war.

"But ... I'm sorry that Bartolo Pompeius wasn't on the net ... I can only admit my father, well, Ron Aemilius is a good general, and most importantly with King Almus since childhood. I hear

Let's salt Ron Aemilius and his wife's neck and send them to King Almus.

What kind of face do you really want ...

Belshazzar smiled inappropriately.

And ...

"Alexios killed my younger brother, Azul Hanno executed him, and it's a bit close to hitting Ron Aemilius ... but well, he's still the same enemy ... Alexios breaks shoulders before bouncing Azul Hanno's neck. ''

"Shit ...... it was a trap"

Far behind Siceria.

While Ron was pursuing, Bartolo and Gram, who had conquered the city one by one, looked bitter when they heard Ron's request for rescue from falcons.

"Lon's guy ... be careless ... Bartolo-san told me to be careless ..."

"No, this is my blame as Commander-in-Chief."

As soon as Sear Barca is gone, the battle goes so well.

Too much.

Bartolo felt lightly.

He told Ron that he would stretch and pursue, considering the possibility of an enemy trap.

However……

Bartolo's prospects were sweet.

He never thought he would feed on a big city like Siceria.

A big city like Sicily.

If the enemy has abandoned, you cannot help but take it.

Rather, it is impossible for a general to overlook this.

So Ron's option is not wrong.

That's a great answer.

I didn't miss an opportunity.

The trap that Bartolo warned Ron and the trap that Belshazzar set up was too different.

That is the blunder this time.

"In this case, I have no choice but to rescue Ron. It is too painful to lose Ron's 20,000, and most of all, Ron himself."

Alexios and Rosward, on the other hand, received Hawk mail from Bartolo ...

"As expected, Belshazzar. As expected, my brother."

"... Which one are you?"

Rosward complains to Alexius, who is just impressed.

"I'm a Romanian general, but I think it's necessary to have the ability to recognize an enemy as strong if it's strong. Yeah, it's unavoidable to get caught ... I'm sorry to miss Sicalia."

After evaluating Alexios, ...

"Rosward, I'll leave the whole army. I'll return to Romalia."

"Huh? What happened?"

Rosward, suddenly in command of 40,000 large troops, became confused.

"It's about time that a large fleet is about to be completed in our home country. If we win the naval battle, Belshazzar will have to withdraw. In that case, Ron Aemilius's blunder will turn into a success in capturing Siceria. ...... If it's all right, everything is fine. "
