Chapter 188 Counterattack (3)
2 hours ago.
Roman Dmitri, who received a report on Kronos’ movements from the scouts, spread out a map on the table in the conference room.
widely.
charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
“As we expected, the Kronos Empire chose to retreat. We sent out skirmishers in case it was a trap, but we couldn’t find any special moves to lure us in. Enemies are currently moving through the plains and through these passages marked on the map. Because the terrain is overgrown with bushes, the enemy needs to prepare for the attack of the pursuers, but they maintain a rather loose formation.”
“You are completely caught off guard.”
“you’re right. The Kronos Empire is clearly aware that they are not safe. Then it is common to form a tight formation, but they seem to have completely ruled out the pursuit of the Cairo kingdom.”
It was an obvious disregard.
outside the castle.
It was a space where there was no need to be afraid of Cairo.
In the meantime, Cairo’s territory has been invaded several times, but regardless of the outcome of the battle, Cairo has never sent a pursuit party.
each other knew the truth.
The fact that it was only barely enduring with the existence of the castle, that it would be unilaterally massacred by the Cronus Empire in a space that was open on all sides.
so that.
organized a pursuit team.
It was necessary to set a precedent to the opponent who was complacent.
Roman said.
“Our plan is simple. The enemies keep a long line, so we plan to divide our forces into two and attack the middle and rear at the same time. If you cut the middle, the enemies will have no choice but to wander, and if you quickly devour the rear then back and forth, you can reduce the number of enemies before they can respond.”
“… It’s a good plan, but the problem is when the troops are isolated.”
It was Baron Noel.
Roman’s words.
It was an ideal situation, but the worst was not said.
“If the enemy’s resistance is strong and the plan goes awry, the troops attacking the middle may be isolated in the front and back. At that time, there is a possibility that it will be reversed. Wouldn’t it be better to join forces and attack from the rear? If the enemies unite and respond, it will turn into an all-out war from then on, but a safe hit-and-run strategy can avoid extreme situations. Our goal is to set a single precedent. Even if we don’t annihilate our enemies, it doesn’t change the fact that we set a precedent.”
“no. That’s not enough.”
this plan.
I didn’t want halfway results.
It had to be shown what would happen if Cairo was clearly touched.
“With this attack, we must obtain a record that can be described as a great victory. To do so, attacking from both sides is essential, and it is important to break the ranks of the enemy with a surprise attack. As Baron Noel said, it is true that there are risks involved. But from the moment we open the gates and step outside, we have to take some risks.”
and.
Roman Dmitri said firmly, looking at the top officials looking at him.
“I will take on the attack in the middle. Undoubtedly, there is no way to withstand our attack with the enemy’s current revealed strength. A situation where the enemy’s carelessness had never been seen before. I will plunge the Kronos Empire into abyss.”
Everyone nodded.
If only Roman Dmitry.
Western leaders decided it was worth following the plan.
* * *
When the sun rises in mid-heaven.
The plan started.
Count Vandenberg’s men, who followed by a short cut, hid themselves in the bushes and waited for the advance party’s signal.
phut.
Fang Fang.
flares bursting into the sky.
Count Vandenberg drew his sword.
“All-arms attack!”
“Attack!”
“Wow!”
sudden.
crash.
It was a surprise attack.
Cairo’s soldiers rushed through the bushes, and the Kronos Empire’s army hurriedly raised their weapons with a bewildered face.
However, they had no choice but to be helpless against an attack they did not prepare for.
As soon as they collided with Cairo’s soldiers, screams erupted from all sides, and Cronus’ soldiers felt a piercing sensation before they could do anything.
hooked
“Gagging.”
The soldier of the Cronus Empire widened his eyes.
He coughed up blood and looked at the sword that pierced his stomach with disbelief.
It was just the beginning.
Cairo’s soldiers took advantage of their numerical superiority and quickly dealt with the enemy, and if there was an existence to block the attack, they would cling to each other and drive their swords into their bodies.
It was an instant for the creature that had just been alive to become a rag.
With swords unable to pierce the chain armor, Cairo’s soldiers threw back their enemies’ heads and decapitated them.
It was the brutality of war.
All sides were dyed red, and Count Vandenberg’s troops seemed to have completely taken control of the rear.
however.
“You bastards. wake up! Your opponent is Cairo! Don’t fall for those guys!”
A knight of the Kronos Empire.
he groaned.
An aura rose from his sword, and he slaughtered the Cairo soldiers who were rushing forward.
Since then, the atmosphere has changed.
The imperial army, who had not been able to wake up, began to leave their backs to each other according to the knight’s cry, and responded calmly against the soldiers of Cairo who were flooding in like crazy.
gradually.
Kronos had the upper hand.
When a similar number of soldiers clashed, the imperial army killed Cairo’s soldiers with overwhelming force.
Kronos and Cairo.
Soldiers showed qualitative differences.
If the soldiers of the Cronus Empire were strong enough to be trained in battle as much as they were for aggression, the soldiers of the Cairo Kingdom were mere ragtags who only knew how to fight within the walls.
It was only for a moment that they gained momentum with a surprise attack in the beginning.
When Cronus regained his stability and showed his original appearance, the soldiers of Cairo Kingdom could not overwhelm the enemy at all despite their numerical superiority.
In the meantime.
Count Vandenberg showed outstanding military strength.
He exploded his 4-star aura and quickly slashed enemies, but he noticed that things were taking a strange turn.
‘At this rate, we are at a disadvantage.’
momentum gradually declined.
The Empire’s carelessness was not arrogance.
No matter how they formed, they were confident of defeating the Kingdom of Cairo, and they showed by force that they really deserved it.
Count Vandenberg felt impatience.
Realistically, it would be right to finish at this point and retreat the troops, but for the plan, we had to hold out until the end.
Roman Dmitry.
He attacked the middle.
It is very difficult to break through attacks from both sides and help the rear in a situation that is more dangerous than oneself.
but.
The sword had already been drawn, and Count Vandenberg had no intention of resigning, even if the outcome of this fight would be ruin.
“Don’t back down! Show the power of Cairo to the heinous imperial army!”
A bloody battlefield.
Count Vandenberg did his duty as commander.
* * *
That time.
Roman Dmitry led his forces to attack the middle.
Unlike Vandenberg’s struggling forces, a one-sided massacre took place in the middle.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
Aura that explodes.
Roman Dmitri’s sword spattered blood.
He rushed at the forefront and cut down dozens of enemies at once, and the soldiers following him showed overwhelming force in the first clash.
It was not simply a victory by surprise.
After exchanging attacks and defenses several times, the Cronus Empire army’s throat was blown away with faces stained with embarrassment.
puck.
Dmitry’s soldiers.
They were a force no less powerful than the Imperial Army.
And the enlisted soldiers who had followed Roman Dmitry from before showed outstanding performance among them.
Caang!
Kakakang!
common soldier.
An unknown entity raised an aura from the sword and pushed back the knight of the Kronos Empire.
The opponent couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
Obviously, wearing a soldier’s outfit, but pushing himself while using the aura was a situation that could not be realistically accepted.
It was the power of the Sura mental method.
Those who followed Roman entered the realm of Aura one by one, and now ordinary soldiers have also broken down the wall.
Flash.
The knight’s head was blown off.
An ordinary soldier finally defeated the knight.
“This crazy.”
“Stop! Stop the enemies!”
Kronos Empire.
They were definitely strong.
However, Dmitri’s soldiers are beyond the norm.
And that wasn’t all.
Key characters like Chris and Kevin displayed overwhelming force, and they quickly reduced the number of enemies following Roman Dmitri.
Count Vandenberg’s worries were unfounded.
He thought it might be dangerous to be surrounded by both sides, but Roman Dmitri’s forces fared beyond expectations.
Overwhelmed.
He slaughtered his enemies and opened the way in an instant.
‘… What is this?’
in a confusing situation.
There was an existence that showed embarrassment in a series of situations.
Rodwell Dmitry, who had cut down the advancing enemy, looked around with a bewildered face.
This.
It really didn’t make sense.
* * *
There is a saying in Cairo.
Go to the capital to succeed.
When Rodwell Dmitry first came up to the capital, he could understand why people were talking about it.
It was a new world.
Unlike the ragtags in the periphery, even the guards had a system, and the aura test, which was not common in the periphery, was not boring.
People were right.
Rodwell Dmitry was called a genius in the well, but to really succeed he had to stand out in the capital.
That is.
It was the last memory of Dmitri.
At the level of the capital city, the beings who couldn’t even chase after them showed a shocking sight right in front of their eyes.
hooked!
“Cheer.”
Dmitry’s soldier.
A soldier with a really normal face pushed the Kronos Empire army and drove his sword into the opponent’s heart.
The soldiers of the Empire are famous for their strong army.
According to Rodwell Dmitri’s memory, it’s normal for Dmitri’s level to never be able to deal with it, but several Imperial troops struggled with one soldier.
The soldier is not particularly special.
None of the soldiers wearing Dmitri’s uniform were pushed back by the imperial army.
And that’s not all.
chris.
was in memory
Before leaving for the capital, Dmitri’s being called a genius became a monster beyond common sense in a few years.
flash!
Pooh.
Chris splattered blood.
Even if the knights of the Kronos Empire rushed in with an aura, he was no match, and he slaughtered the enemies while looking for places where the enemies were gathered.
A gap in memories arose.
Ordinary-faced soldiers, or Krisna from the Knights of Dmitry.
It was so different from what Rodwell Dmitri remembered.
Since he was also a member of Dmitri, he could not understand the situation that was confirmed with common sense.
and.
The one who stood out by far was Roman Dmitri.
Its overwhelming but astounding power proved how it earned the title of Cairo’s greatest sword.
“You are my brother. If you follow me into the battlefield, I will show you what it means to live as a Dmitri family. In exchange for Roman Dmitri’s younger brother Rodwell Dmitri losing an eye. The Kronos Empire will have to sacrifice countless lives.”
Roman’s words.
It lingered in my mind.
I didn’t know what that meant then, but now I think I do.
Dmitry family.
Totally different.
The family, whose name was known only in the periphery, was completely transformed by Roman Dmitri.
I couldn’t understand how this could happen.
What was certain was that what was in front of his eyes was the truth, and while he was on the Western Front, Dmitri faced many changes.
My head was complicated.
this situation.
I didn’t know how to take it.
Rodwell Dmitry came out on the battlefield even with an eye patch to protect his eyes, but there was no role that needed him.
It was then.
“chris!”
“yes!”
far away
The Kronos Empire’s army was pouring in.
Due to the fact that they were attacked by surprise, all the soldiers who were moving from the front flocked to the middle.
Roman said as he slashed the attacking enemy.
“From now on, we divide our troops into two as planned. You must lead your troops and go to the rear. While I help Count Vandenberg attack the rear, I will block the Kronos Imperial Army coming this way.”
It was a reckless operation.
Rodwell Dmitri wanted to stop their conversation.
but.
Those who give orders and those who accept orders.
He made a risky choice casually.
“Okay. Article 2, follow me from now on!”
Chris backed off.
after that.
Roman kept his seat.
And when the enemies attack.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Roman exploded his aura and threw himself at the enemies that were constantly flooding in.
