The Demon King Seems to Conquer the World
Episode 263: Military Conference for the Liberation of Kurtus *
The Galilean coalition and the army that had brought the reinforcements together had deported the villagers from the villages of the south of the land, which were expected to be the dueling ground, and had rented out the church there as their headquarters on that day.
Because the church has a tall mansion that can be used as an excellent observation point.
"According to information from reconnaissance, the enemy forces are in formation in this way"
Olseus, senior general of the Galilean coalition, spread a large piece of paper on the large table.
A large table for the conference has been set up, bringing together the heads of the armies of each country.
"First, about the terrain around here."
"Before that"
And Fritz pinched his mouth.
"Before we move on to the military debate, let me give you an overview of the situation. Perhaps some of you here are reluctant to know about our country."
"Oh, right"
Olseus, who will be older than Fritz, said with respect. From the standpoint, the Supreme Commander of the Galilee coalition will be Fritz Ronnie, the ruler (Konsul).
Of course Fritz is not a military man, so the actual command will be left to the higher-ranking military. However, the power of appointment is vested in the Crown and there is also an unlimited right of dismissal.
The superior officer is irrelevant, but it is not strange to use respectful language in the structure of power.
"Kurtos here is the eighth largest city in the country, relatively large among the Union Cities. As you can see, it has a octagonal castle wall, with streets leading in three directions.
It may look slightly smaller in this way on the map, but this is because of the walls that have suppressed the expansion of the city, and the walls are densely populated with buildings "
Kurtos is not a city originating in the Great Empire of Shantilla, but a castle city created to protect the national centre near Galilee Yanin when Kanjal's plunder rides were intense.
Originally built for defense, it eventually began to function as a trading city, as it was placed in a deceptive stroke.
Nowadays, the interior is in a built-up state, and Kurtos City Council has been setting aside a budget for the expansion of the walls for thirteen years. It turned out to be a situation that was not the other way around, but was due to go into construction three years later.
However, you won't need to mention anything around it because it has nothing to do with the military.
"Also, I know you've all seen a huge countryside by the time you get here, but this area has become one of the best barns in the country. Taking Kurtos also means losing vast tracts of surrounding land.
Our Union (Union) has ceded two cities previously in the border zone to enemy forces in the form of only some reinforcements and almost abandonment. But I would ask you to consider that Kurtos has more strategic value than the city itself.
Kurtos is an untouchable city for the Galilee Union and must be stopped here at all costs. That's it. - Lord Orseus, please continue. "
Fritz finished saying it and sat down. Orseus rises instead.
"Well, continue... First of all, the terrain, as Lord Fritz said earlier around here, has widened fields. Seasonal pattern, I have just finished pruning, so the outlook is good.
In the field, this map doesn't say a thing, but there are so many ways to make people different at each boundary. However, the size of a single field and the fact that there are no fences all over the road makes it easy for people or horses to cross it. It will not be an obstacle to military action.
Heavy cavalry with armor may be taken by the soil of the field, but the soil of the field is tight after the harvest is over. If it doesn't rain heavily out of season, you can basically assume that there is no problem.
To sum up, this area is suitable for foreseeable military action, and elements that would interfere with action would not appear unless it rained. That is.
There is no need to explain the path represented by the line. The same cobblestone path that you have come through is straight through the tripartite. "
and Orseus separated there and drank water.
He did not participate in the war remaining in the defense of the mainland because he had already become a senior general at the time of the last war.
However, I have had the experience of fighting the Shans by participating in the last battle of domination of the Kirchna region and yet another previous war.
"Well, it's a floating forest land like an island southwest of Kurtus, but this place is slightly tall and hilly. This is the part that the residents of Kurtos use as a common ground. The trees are growing slightly thicker and, well, would be right in the image of a forest.
The enemy forces have a considerable number of soldiers here. At the top of the hill, there seems to be a sight to behold. It is believed that it is intended to be used as a simple defensive base to protect the thin right-wing edge "
The hill is natural, and until about thirty years ago the vineyards were spreading.
Back then, there was a mountain fire in an upstream forest area and firewood stopped reaching Kurtos.
Kurtos apparently had a great deal of trouble because he relied on areas upstream of the river for firewood and charcoal to consume within the city. At that time, it was decided to stop producing less prestigious wines and store trees for emergencies.
Such forests are not just a recreational place to let them play, but can also be used for industry in a splendid way because if you choose a tree and plant it, you can feed and fatten dongles and the like to pigs.
But now they're being used by enemy forces and they're out on the back.
"The enemy forces used their cavalry to ambush Kurtos while taking the path east, swirling the great army down south. Kurtos became an ambush attacked outfit, with only about two thousand soldiers in it. Residents are down to about 60% of normal time because of the alienation going on, but there are few food stores, so it would be a tough situation if we could continue our military offensive. As for the basic information, here's the thing, do you care?
When Orseus finished putting it together, Gertrude Evans lifted his hand all the way up.
"Go ahead."
says Orseus.
"The enemy forces, even when it comes to siege, seem to be lining up close to the walls, but can't they reach the arrows?
"Let's answer. Kurtos' walls are quite high, especially in the southwest towards the hills, yet another step higher, assuming that the Kanjal cavalry has climbed the hills and shot at them.
But Kurtos doesn't have arrows. Fifteen days have already passed since the siege of the enemy forces began, but many times in the meantime the commander, who was roofed and defended by a broken castle hammer, seems to have used most of the arrows.
There's enough bullets left, but as you know, guns don't make sense to shoot from out of range. By the time it arrives, it will be slower and less capable of killing.
They say they are turning iron into iron for residents inside, but we would like you to think that ranged attacks from the walls can hardly be expected. Of course, it's possible to open the walls, strike out, and strike back. We have a match for that request. "
"Thank you. Let me ask you a few more questions."
And, Gertrut went on to ask questions.
"Was Kurtos attacked in earnest after being besieged? For example, there was a massive battle, but it bounced back."
"It doesn't. It seems to be burning with a sporadic attack of such a magnificent degree as the broken castle hammer I mentioned earlier."
"What about the eagle? Previously on Siege Warfare, it seemed like the usual means of bombing, crushing the will to resist, and opening the castle."
"I seem to have used it several times only on the walls, targeting residents' agitation. They said the aim was and Boya came out once, but it's not a full-scale attack."
"Hey, Ru, Ru, Ru... Thank you"
Gertrut struck out the question in a meaningful way.
"I'm being lured, Ilham says."
So a young voice sounded.
The generals from all over are all dressed in thoughts. But they were the ones who stood out.
He's from the Qur 'an dragon empire, General Ilham and Ardil, and the interpreter man.
Will Ilham be over seventy years old? As is tradition in his country, he was a sturdy man who stored his chin beard in his throat.
Ardill, by contrast, was, in short, a boy. Having just turned seventeen, I guess he's not as capable of being here as he should be.
I don't even have grandeur as an attitude, and I look anxiously keen. I have a handsome face on my lazy body, whether it's my mother giving in. Hatched in the royal palace, it felt like an organism that had grown up, was out of place when taken out to battlefield, with the impression that it seemed slightly weak.
"If the enemy forces attack with all their might, it will be a city that will not have a day and fall. and Ilham is. - Yes.
Enemy forces, it is good that you are in captivity, feed on the city. and Ilham. "
"So, Lord Ilham, what do you think would be a good idea?
Fritz said.
It was Fritz who brought them in, and others are bewildered by this exotic people. I don't want to water the military council, but we should start a conversation with someone who knows how to handle it.
I could also ask questions in Arn, but I used Terrorist for the people.
"How much food does a city called Kurtos have in store? - Yes, yes. This one is on the defensive side and should be advantageous in terms of replenishment. Rather than jump into a ready tiger's mouth, you better wait for them to attack you from your opponent. and Ilham."
"I can't do that"
Orseus returns it immediately.
"As Kurtos explained earlier, the interior is filled with buildings. There are not many big grain stores."
Ironically, Kurtos' function as the defensive base he was supposed to have at the time of the city's construction had been lost as he devoured peace as a trading city.
Because as the land spread, the threat of the Kanjal cavalry has moved elsewhere. As a result, grain stores for caged castles and so on have been crushed.
There are many grain handling merchants, so there will be some in the warehouse there, but they won't allow themselves to feed the entire city.
"Also around here is the seasonal pattern, the time of pruning. Enemy forces are carrying out their requisitions in the villages on the road, so there will be sufficient stockpiles in terms of food. Kurtos is the one who runs out of food first."
"Right. and Ilham is. - Yes, that's it."
And the interpreter, who stood alone, sat in a chair.
"Lord Ilham's right, you seem to be lured."
Gertrut told me to continue what Ilham said.
"Even so, this one has to get on the invite. But this one has a favorable military load against the enemy. You should take advantage of the abundance of soldiers to fight without poorly riding the enemy's thoughts."
"How exactly?
Orseus asked.
"I have trouble being specific when asked...... shall I think about it? First of all, it looks like the enemy is creating a diagonal formation."
A diagonal formation is a formation that places a force biased to either the left or the right, with the force of the thicker one, with the aim of defeating the enemy formations arranged in the flat.
The knowledge was also in Fritz. A long time ago, I forgot how many years it was, but it should have been used in the famous battle of ancient Nigros.
"A diagonal formation is a somewhat old formation. At that time the cavalry had no cavalry, so it was not as striking as it is now. The current military law makes the cavalry an outdated formation that is more dangerous because when it is centrally operated it is pulled out of the thinner and easily besieged"
"Right," Orseus said. "But in this case, the thinner right wing has a suppression of defensive positions. Behind you, they're holding back the cavalry, too. I'm sure it's holding back to the castle gate behind us, but it's also a strong reserve."
Reserve units are forces to make them stand by behind formations and operate flexibly. They rush to where the battle line is about to be pulled out, cover it so that the formation doesn't break, or join the breakthrough point if it's time to attack now.
"The only thing that looks like a diagonal formation is appearance, and as a soldier, you're probably thinking something completely different. You look like you're taking over my army."
"Right."
"The right wing should be thicker. and Ilham."
A man from the interpreter made a statement.
"The enemy's offensive point is still unthinkable except for the soldiers' thick left wing. This army is twice as good as the enemy. and Ilham is. - Yes. Thicken the right wing corresponding to the enemy's left wing, and keep the reserve on standby further, eliminating the breakthrough point, making it difficult to pull out no matter how elite the enemy soldiers are. and Ilham."
When the interpreter was finished, Ilham started speaking in Arn again.
"Even if we invest in the right wing, the more soldiers we can enrich the left wing, the greater the difference in power between us. If the opponent is not alarmed, then you should only keep an eye on not drilling holes in the formation in the guise of a retreat and the movement of a breakthrough cavalry. and Ilham is. Yes, that's it."
"That's...... sure"
Gertrut told me to roar. It looked frizzy, even as it was pushing anxiety to death.
"With a wealth of reserve power, you have the flexibility to respond to any attack. Whatever kind of magical soldier Yuri Howe will be doing, he will be able to deal with it."
"I agree. I don't need to put up a very bizarre formation. On the main road, but don't be alarmed, you should hit it in formation that can handle all enemy movements"
Orseus said. It sounds like a senior general.
Fritz had the same opinion. It's an amateur idea, but it doesn't seem like a bad idea.
"… However, I still find the thinning right wing suspicious if the enemy has any secrets."
"Lord Gertrut. I know what it's like to deal with a wise general and want to be afraid of those things, but it's also a problem to think too much more than you specifically don't know the secret. You're gonna be on the invite."
Orseus said.
"I understand. I'm just really curious... would you mind letting my army take care of the left wing?
Gertrut seems to want to take charge of the left wing.
Apparently, there's something I feel strongly about.
"I see. If that's it... Lord Fritz, you have no problem"
"Yes, Lord Gertrude, thank you."
"The papal realm and our army might as well not fight shoulder to shoulder," says Ilham.
An interpreter said.
"I know. So let's say the Qur 'an dragon empire is on the right, our Galilean coalition is in the center, and the papal army is on the left - Lord Fritz, can you do that?"
In the first place, I don't need to ask for such a leave of attorney more than I delegated to Orceus, but I guess the final grand decision makes me look.
"I think it would be nice. You were all cautious against the war station, so you have nothing to say."
I can only leave these things to the experts.
Unless you're unwilling or clueless, but if you're serious, amateur mouthing can only be harmful.
"Now, as for the other troops in Frusha and Peninsula, and the placement of the reserves..."
"Senior Admiral Orseus, we've made a big decision, and let's give it a break here."
"Oh, oh... right"
When Fritz suggested a break, Orseus nodded as he had returned to me.
He, too, must be empowered when deciding to defend his country. Looks a little forward.
"We shall now take a thirty minute break here. Now, dissolve."
