Episode 23: The Battle of Apatia

"" God is with us, God is with us, God is with us, God is with us!!

"" God bless us!! Victory to us!! God bless us!! Victory to us!!

The battle of Apatia began with the simultaneous shooting of the Lemurian army's Longbow unit.

They showered arrows like rain from more than two hundred meters away, far beyond the range of the Crossbow Squad.

"Nah! Then, silly...... you say you can get arrows from that distance?

"Huh, what do you think, our new weapon?"

The arrows unleashed by the Lemurian army quickly drive away the Pharus army's crossbow troops.

"Shit, do you want Crossbow Troops down...... Infantry, forward!

Even as Coward kept shooting at each other, he moved his crossbow unit backwards, deciding he could only do it unilaterally, and moved the infantry forward.

Having seen that move, Elquille also retreats while letting Longbow troops shoot arrows, and puts the infantry forward.

The first clash was between the Fouls left wing led by Coward and the Lemurian right wing led by Darios.

Both sides, coming out of formation, collided with nature first.

"Here and now, you can win, right? Sire."

Darios grins niggardly and pushes the Fars left wing in with skillful command.

Concentrate the elite Lemurian infantry on the right wing and forcefully destroy the left wing.

This is one of Elquille's operations.

But Coward hasn't lost either.

"That's the world famous Lord Darios. But...... I'm also a general who was told 'The Spear of Satan VIII'. I won't let you break through so easily."

He is a weak soldier, inferior to Lemuria even at spear length, and on top of that he is an infantryman of Phallus who is dragged around and exhausted day after day...

Coward's skilful command painstakingly prevents Darios from attacking.

Darios also raises his voice of interest in this.

"Heh... I'll do it. So... how about this guy?

Darios sends an order to the right-wing Harvard unit.

Then the Halvard troops move like one creature and move on to the attack on the left side of the Phallus left wing.

(Lemurian army pushing in)

If you can't push it in with force, flank it with Halvard troops.

Erkühr's op number two.

Erkühl believed in the strength of Lemurian infantry and Darios, who were the elite, though impossible moves for generals and soldiers in line.

And I lived up to that expectation and got around to the brilliant side.

But...

"I've expected that hand. … as far as possible on the leftmost wing, placed strong soldiers as a priority and gave instructions to respond when surrounded by flanks"

be surrounded in advance and into the sides.

There is as much to deal with as you know it.

Darios, Coward's command capabilities are almost mutual.

Suzu, the movement of the Lemurian right wing and the Phallus left wing glued.

Meanwhile, Edmond, the Lemurian left-wing cavalry led by Carolina and the Phallus right-wing cavalry cavalry were in a fierce death fight around that time.

"Erigos!!!

Carolina's sword slashes and rips Farth Cavalry one after another.

Whatever armor you're wearing, there's nothing you can't slash in Carolina's Erigos.

But...

There were a lot of them.

The difference between the Lemurian Left Cavalry and the Farse Right-wing Cavalry is more than double.

"Andromarius!!

Edmond also takes weapons and protective equipment from his enemies one after the other, waving his sword to tear them apart.

Carolina, Edmond's activism had made the Lemurian cavalry struggle with the Phallus cavalry.

When they fight to some extent, they look at each other and turn back on their heels.

A well-trained cavalry flips after the two and retreats to escape.

The Phallus cavalry chases it, and the moment it is about to be caught up, the Lemurian cavalry flips and fights again.

There is only one role that Edmond and Carolina were given by Elquille.

It's about eliminating the cavalry from the battlefield.

They haven't said a word about winning.

I mean, I just need to buy some time.

Although the Lemurian Empire's heavy-duty cavalry (Crivanarius) is the greatest advantage of a heavy-duty assault...

For that matter, it is not suitable for fighting in such a way as this one because of the loss of mobility.

So I was removing all but the minimal armor and fighting in a light-hearted fashion.

Carolina leads the lighter Heavy Duty Cavalry (Cribanarius) to receive the enemy's Medium Duty Cavalry (Cribanarius) and Light Cavalry, with Edmond around from the side to stir up the enemy.

After some fighting, retreat again.

Edmond, Carolina repeated this over and over again and was thorough in buying time.

Meanwhile, Sherheen, led by Galphis, led by the Lemurian right-wing cavalry, and the Farth Army left-wing cavalry, were fighting so hard that they outfought Edmond and Carolina.

"Amon!!

Galphis' spear, wrapped in a scorching flame, strikes Sherheen.

The unique magic of Galphis: "Divine Speed II" and "Golden Rigidity III", as well as the juxtaposition of "My Sword is for the Emperor", a bloodline magic, plus the great spirit of flames and predictions, "Amon".

If you're a normal person, you blow up in one blow, and you wipe out charcoal.

But...

"Crocel!!

An ice-covered sharheen sword plays Galphis' spear.

Ice and flames collide, creating water vapor fog.

The Great Spirit of Ice and Academia, Crocel. Sequence forty-ninth, status is Duke.

It is the covenant spirit of Sherheen.

Sharheen also overlays multiple magics, just like Galphis, with each other's speed and arm strength almost mutually.

"The Sword of Sassan VIII" Sherheen and "Fiery" Galphis.

Wins and losses are not attached.

But... the goal of Galphis is not to win or lose.

It's about keeping Sherheen on hold.

After some fighting, Galphis still retreats with his heels back.

Sherheen follows it.

Assuming Sherheen ignores Galphis and tries to attack the sides of the Lemurian army infantry, he changes direction...

Soon Galphis flips over and comes to beat the sides of the Sherheens.

Because we know that, Sherheen must go after Galphis and defeat him.

"Stop! Galphis Galeanos!! Don't run away forever!!

"Oh, I get it. It's Sherheen!!

Once again, Galphis stops running and starts fighting Sherheen.

With that in mind, the battle also begins between the Lemurian army cavalry and the Phallus army cavalry.

"Hopefully, it's not this way of fighting, it's something I want to fight grandiose from the front!!

A blow all over Galphis.

But Sherheen makes it look prevented.

"Then let's not run away!!

And strike back, unleashing the slaughter of Divine Speed on Galphis...

but Galphis avoids it and shows it.

"Hmm! I'm not sure you're going to give me a one-on-one ride? I would have wanted to stop by for a difference in numbers and I would have killed him!!

"Naturally! That's what war is all about!

Galphis, Sherheen's one-off offense continues...

Around that time, Erkür was directing the center, scratching a sweat on his forehead.

(I still have both wings...... but I don't know how much. Darios' attack on the enemy left flank fails... neither the force push from the front nor the maneuver of the Halvard troops to get around it fails...)

Already prepared by Erkühr, two of the three measures have ended in underdevelopment.

No longer, I just have to bet on the last one.

(... I had no idea you could force such a sweeping battle because of this woman)

But there was a grin on Elquille's face.

Elquille enjoyed herself.

This critical situation.

The line of great victory and great defeat.

"... First Battalion, three more steps back. The Second Battalion is two more steps, Third Battalion, too far down. Step forward."

With exquisite command, Erkühl was retreating the central infantry one by one.

To such an extent that the enemy does not feel uncomfortable so that the line does not collapse.

Little by little, little by little...

And...

"... tell Oscar. The center is ready. I told you to do it at your discretion."

From Elquille to Oscar, a horse of preaching ran.

"... I see, okay. Tell His Majesty we will win."

Oscar says that to the conductor, then returns to command.

There is a fierce battle going on, a double-wing cavalry.

And Lemurian Army right wing Darios and Farse Army left wing infantry Coward's offense.

Central infantry rush.

The battle between the Lemurian Army left-wing infantry commanded by Oscar and the Fars Army right-wing infantry was a calm one, unrelated to such.

Naturally.

Because the main battlefield for this battle (from the Lemurian army) is the right-wing infantry and the double-wing cavalry.

If everyone looks at the formation diagram, I think so.

... Yes, that's what they think.

Erkühl concentrated his forces on the right wing, not the left, and placed an anonymous Oscar on the left, and the famous Darios on the right...

To send power to the right wing and settle on the right... not to divert Coward's consciousness from the right.

The magician raises his right hand… to focus the consciousness of the guest on his right hand.

There are no seeds or tricks in my right hand... but I hide seeds and tricks in my left hand.

Erkühl poured all his power on the right wing... to make it look like it was to hide the strength of the left wing, especially the Oscar.

"Look, Oscar. The enemy doesn't know what you're capable of. So Farse army right-wing generals are not big opponents. And Coward, distracted by Darios, is unconscious to the right wing.... the number of soldiers is almost mutual, then later determined by the quality of the general and the soldiers. The quality of soldiers is won by us. All you have to do is beat the commander of the Farth Army right-wing infantry.... this battle, most importantly your movements. Give me the same power as you did when you broke through my siege net. That way... this battle is our victory."

Oscar remembers Elquille's words.

He expects so much from himself for participating in the rebellion and entrusts me with an important task.

If you don't answer, it's disloyalty.

"All armies! Turn to fight back than this!!

As per Oscar's decree, each battalion leader begins to move.

The Lemurian army, which was saving power and storing it, strikes at once against the Pharus army, which had accumulated fatigue in a long march and a long battle.

Oscar's skilful command moves the Lemurian Army left wing smoothly, partly around the side of the Farse Army right wing.

The General of the Phallus army could not accompany the sudden offensive.

The surrounding Harvard forces immediately assaulted the right-wing side of the Fars Army.

The Farse Army Right Wing Infantry quickly collapses.

"Hi-yep!!

"Hey, what's going on?

"The sides have collapsed!!

"Run!!!

"Wait!! Don't run away!!

The deputy general, who was leading the right wing of the Fars army, manages to hold down the soldiers in a state of confusion and tries to maintain their formation.

However, the Fars Army right-wing infantry collapses so that the effort is fruitless and the teeth of the tooth of the tooth are lacking.

"That man is the enemy general!! Catch it!!"

"" Ooh!!!

On Oscar's decree, soldiers are attacked by deputy generals.

Halbad units of the Lemurian army defeat the soldiers of the escorts one after the other, capturing the deputy generals.

The Farse Army right wing, held down by the commander, completely ceases functioning.

In addition, an attack by the Lemurian army's Longbow unit is added there.
