How a Former Pro Takes Advantage by Doing an Easy Job Chapter 591

Episode 591. Declaration of War by the Conciliated

⑷This does not mean that our aristocrats are incompetent.

This time the conditions are too bad.

No matter how hard you try, you cannot completely block the border crossing no matter how much you use your current domestic power.

The next best thing is to push back the defense line and then rally and respond.

As in the last war, if we step in and intervene, we won’t be able to block it enough, but rather push it back.

However, the purpose this time is not to win the war.

The opponents to be defeated are not those idiots.

That’s why I can’t go to that war this time.

It’s not where I’m going

“… … After all, is that the best?”

There is a way.

That’s enough to overcome this crisis.

Certainly a way to prolong the course of that apparent war.

I have already made a proposal myself to the King’s side.

I also got consent.

“I can’t help it.”

First of all, you need to secure some space.

And it is desirable to put it in a fixed state as much as possible.

So, I contacted you right away.

“grow.”

If they use humans, they should use this one too.

It is an eye for an eye.

yes war. Let’s make it big.

The follow-up troops of the Zelnian Kingdom were able to pass near the border fortress of the Ernesia Kingdom, which had been annihilated smoothly.

“Um… … Although he had heard beforehand, Viscount Gtel, the commander in charge of the follow-up troops, looked around and fell asleep without realizing it.

It is said to be a fortress of an enemy country, but the current sight was so gruesome that even he frowned.

‘I don’t know what they are thinking.’ These are the impressions of the nobles who decided on the current war.

There were too many corners in this war that even Viscount Gretel could not understand.

yes there is a grudge

Looking back, it is true that the conflict with Ernesia Kingdom during the days when it was called the Zelnian Holy Kingdom was the cause of its downfall.

Even if the fundamental mistake is because of the seeds that the wicked woman sowed, those who only recall memories of the days of the kingdom at the time still go to the kingdom of Ernesia.

Even so, the current flow of war did not make sense.

Above all, it was originally impossible for them to cross the borders of Ernesia Kingdom as they do now.

Was war really that simple?

Even preparation takes years.

Not to mention, the current Zelnian Kingdom had neither the strength nor the capital to do so.

But what about the army of the Zelnian Kingdom now?

It was strange to think of him, who knew the situation of the kingdom well.

From the armor worn by the soldiers to the spears and even the longbow, there are plenty of faithful weapons in the back.

In addition, there is no shortage of all supplies, including military rice.

Rather, it overflows.

‘… … Rumor has it that these materials were brought in from outside.’

In fact, there were eyewitness accounts of unidentified people continuing to send something every day.

It’s just a really awkward flow.

When he first heard about this war, the thought that popped into his head reflexively.

‘Is this war really caused by our will?’

just a small question.

It is said that the past war was the villain’s fault, but even so, it was a war that was fought according to the will of the people of the country.

But what is this now?

The solid border fortress of Ernesia Kingdom was completely blown away.

Everything is so futile.

The fact made the soldiers feel uncomfortable.

And there are rumors going around.

The reason why the fortress disappeared now is because the soldiers secretly sent in from the kingdom sacrificed their lives to use the grotesque magic weapon.

There are such unsettling rumors going around.

Viscount Gretel put on a complicated expression because he knew what had actually happened.

What do you mean by the top line?

‘… … done. It’s a useless idea.’

The war has already happened.

What he had to do was attack the kingdom of Ernesia.

He too admits that this is the only way the Zelnian Kingdom can breathe.

Not everything can be clean.

that’s the reality

“Increase the marching speed. We must hurry up and rejoin the advance troops.”

There is already a battle going on in the front line of defense.

It seemed that the battle in the front and next defense lines would not be easy, as if the Ernesia kingdom had also learned a lesson and had been vigilant.

If we don’t ride the momentum now and push forward, we won’t be able to see those who sacrificed themselves to break through this fortress first.

“But can I speed it up?”

One of his subordinates warned.

“To advance more carefully… …

It was pierced, but it was the territory of Ernesia Kingdom.

There is a possibility that a detached unit camps to block supply or support.

“What are you going to do in a place like this? The current Ernesia Kingdom is in a hurry just by setting up a defense line.”

There is no indication that the detached unit has moved.

The Kingdom of Ernesia has not yet been able to afford to withdraw troops other than the defense line in the face of a surprise attack.

That’s why I decided it was okay to pass by.

There was no point in occupying this place in the first place.

More than anything, I just feel bad.

“Getting there early is a priority.”

Viscount Gtel reiterated the order to speed up the march as if he would no longer listen to the concerns of his men.

The soldiers also followed without a word.

Perhaps they are only terrified to be here.

It must be that he wants to quickly escape from a place that only has such an ominous feeling.

“More than that… … hmm?”

The Viscount stopped talking and kept his mouth shut.

There was someone approaching with a horse in a hurry from the side of the unit.

Not a member of his unit.

It looked like a messenger sent from another unit.

When I stopped him and confirmed his affiliation, he was a messenger sent from the capital of the Zelnian Kingdom.

A messenger sent straight from the capital?

He was nervous and eager to answer.

“What is it?”

“A surprise! This is an order to return immediately.”

The soldier hurriedly shouted and reported what he had seen.

“surprise attack? Where?”

After hearing the explanation, it seems that the fortress of the Zelnian Kingdom, which is on the opposite side of this place, has been attacked by surprise.

Currently, the number of troops in each fortress in the Zelnian Kingdom is not so great.

Except for the raids of the Kingdom of Ernesia, most of them were conscripted except for the minimum number of troops.

What would happen if you were attacked in such a situation?

In the end, it seemed that he had no choice but to issue an order to urgently recall the troops still on the move and defend the fort under attack.

After listening to the messenger’s explanation, he understood this far.

But I was still puzzled.

Who the hell carried out the attack?

“No way… … There is no movement from the side of Ernesia Kingdom… …

“It is not the kingdom of Ernesia.”

“hmm?”

“The surprise was… …

The soldier took a deep breath and cried out.

“It’s a unit made up of heterogeneous people!”

“Heterogeneous… …

A unit made up of heterogeneous races such as elves and beastmen.

and the position of the fortress currently under attack.

Which countries are adjacent to it?

What it means is one thing.

“Could it be Kelly?!”

“I heard the news. I heard that Kelly’s troops were ambushed in the rear room of the Zelnian Kingdom.”

“yes. It happened. It seems that the Zelnian Kingdom is also quite perplexed.”

Because I had to urgently recall the follow-up troops I had sent.

You could see how flustered he was.

But even so, it is already too late.

In the meantime, the borders of the Zelnian Kingdom have already been surrendered to Kellya.

They destroyed the fortress of Ernesia Kingdom, but instead they lost other fortresses to Kelia’s surprise attack.

It’s ugly.

U ha

??????

My brother, who is currently staying alone at late hours, was silent for a while.

And the oldest brother who organized his thoughts broke the silence with a nod.

“… … It is as you suggested.”

“yes. Fortunately, they kept their promise.”

It is known to the world that the current situation happened by accident.

But in reality it is not.

It is a situation that has already finished talking with them in advance.

Give grace and sometimes threaten. That’s how I built relationships with other countries that would take our side.

And force them… … no

I just asked them to show their friendship slightly.

The result is this.

“If they declare war on Ernesia Kingdom and come in, they will hit them too. Yes, as per the agreement.”

Kellya strikes the Zelnian Kingdom.

In addition, the other countries that made the same agreement also hit the country that attacked the Ernesia kingdom.

Everything is according to the agreement made.

“If you are prepared to start a war, you must also be prepared to be defeated.”

If the other side conspires, it means that this side also concocts and plays the same way.

Opinions coincided.

Or there is a position that cannot be resisted and a position that cannot overcome temptation.

At least with the current support, the kingdom of Ernesia would be able to breathe.

“They will have to protect their butts too, so the offensive won’t be as intense as it is now.”

The words ‘at least for now’ were deliberately muttered in my mind.

Yes.

Despite the unexpected confusion, they still did not give up.

Even now, the enemy’s troops who have crossed the border are launching an offensive to attack the defense line every day.

‘If possible, I would have liked to step back when I got my butt burned once.’

I guess they’re not in that kind of a position either.

Maybe they are impatient too.

Even so, I don’t have the heart to understand.

No matter how instigated by someone, as long as you dare to take up arms, you will surely pay the price.

Of course, in order to do that, you have to deal with the root cause.

There is only one solution.

I resolutely proposed to my brother.

“We need to get the ship back. No…

To be precise, it’s the sea. We must have the means to send troops across the sea.”

“Hmm… … Do you think that’s all there is to it?”

“yes. The cause of the current war is a group claiming to be the Principality of Caduceus.”

Things won’t get better unless they disappear.

When I insisted that the culprit be struck, Senior Brother frowned and groaned.

“Um… … Why in the world do they disapprove of the kingdom of Ernesia… … There would be no contact.”

… … I can’t say that it’s because of me.

The point of contact that is now open and alive was just quietly adjusting the atmosphere.

If you shut your mouth, will you cover even half of it?.

‘Even if it wasn’t for me, this would have happened.’

Even if I cooperate with them or withdraw from the kingdom of Ernesia, the current position of the kingdom of Ernesia will be an obstacle to them.

He would have been beaten for whatever reason.

So, it is not my fault that this war broke out.

Rather, I tried to reduce the possible damage!

Great work Arel!

So I’m not bad.

The bad guys are them.

Punishment is what they deserve!

And I will punish you!

“Their base is in the middle of the sea. In order to strike, it is possible to inevitably cross that sea.”

“Hmm… … But the ship… …

My brother was speechless.

That’s right. The ship is not in our hands right now.

To be precise, as the Kingdom of Felsen declared war and unilaterally closed all borders at the same time, the connection with the port city was naturally cut off.

Our personnel working in the port city were also forcibly kicked out.

Well, Ernesia Kingdom, which had no port, couldn’t bring it even if they wanted to.

We had left all five of our steel wires, which had been built since the last expedition, there.

It was something he was concerned about when he learned that the kingdom of Felsen was joining Herial’s side.

Well, let’s just say it’s fortunate that no hostages were taken.

In fact, it would have been easier to free them if they had taken hostages.
