In a village inhabited by half-monster humans and Demihumans, it is located three kilometers from Girinhi Fortress. This place is a region on a steep hill with dense trees.
The 1st Fighter Group led by Sergeant Major Hassan walks quietly and tries to move in silence, after they get word that the enemy has attacked a nearby village. The news of the enemy using the weapon ‘firestick’ makes all 12th Team personnel left by Nio and the 002 Aid Company in combat-ready condition.
This makes Hassan have to think about what Nio would do if faced with a situation like this. The man decided to ask the 2nd Battle Group led by Ferdi to remain in the fortress, and discussed with Lee Baek-Ki and agreed that the 002 Assistance Company was on standby around the fort with weapons and combat-ready personnel.
Hassan's group has faced stiff resistance from enemies who actually use rifles. But they have not been able to ascertain the type and type and origin of the rifle that the enemy is using. All they know is that the enemy has killed some civilians who are clearly not allowed to be harmed.
While walking in the middle of the forest with a calm and solemn expression, Hassan felt that there was an incoming call on his handsfreenya. He ordered his nine subordinates to stop using hand codes.
“So they also attacked another village, yes.”
“True, we are trying to clear the enemy assisted ten ogre armored,” replied the commander of Squad B 002 Aid Company.
Armored ogres are nicknames among Peace Forces soldiers. They resembled a three-meter-tall armored infantry, and were a race of half-monster humans. Ogres are human, but have at least one or two horns on their foreheads. Besides being famous for having fighting strength that exceeds ordinary humans, female ogres are also no less beautiful than human women and Demihumans.
“So, how is the situation?” Hassan asked again.
“Just as we were about to sweep them with heavy machine guns, the enemy fled back into the forest.”
Nio once said something if the enemy retreated suddenly when the muzzle of the rifle pointed at them. The enemy is no longer as stupid as they thought, they have heroes who teach them the modern Alliance of Science, including modern and semi-primitive battle tactics.
“You should know, right? Don't let your members chase enemies.”
The tactic of feigning retreat to lure the enemy into the line of attack of the ambush force that had been waiting for was an ancient tactic. Then, it could be said that the Alliance forces had no other tactics to use. The purpose of this resistance is to defeat and capture several enemy soldiers. Capturing enemy soldiers was the first step to obtaining some information regarding the weapons and development of the Alliance.
Still, Hassan was unable to order his subordinates to retreat, while the enemy had already returned to this forest. To prevent the enemy from getting a chance to attack first, Hassan felt his combat group had to find and attack the retreating enemy forces.
“Enemies come. Prepare your weapons to face the enemy!”
Although Team B of the 002 Assistance Company had two tactical vehicles with two medium 7.62mm machine guns and mortar launchers in each tactical vehicle, making it possible for them to defeat the enemy in fierce combat. However, it was difficult for them to move into the forest on steep hills with unstable land, plus limited visibility.
If the enemy were to use total attack tactics with their large numbers in this kind of terrain that impeded movement, even the entire 002 Relief Company's strength would have difficulty.
Moreover, the enemy was reinforced by an armored ogre.
They should at least be defeated using a 12.7mm heavy machine gun, or do close combat at very high risk. They are quite dangerous to the average infantryman who carries only the SS20 G2 and Russian and North Korean rifles, such as the 1st Fighter Group. Then, what can they do? The best option was to rip off their first defensive line and attack in total. To achieve that goal, Hassan was forced to go on a reconnaissance.
The sound of 60mm mortar protection shots from Squad B and explosives launched from grenade launchers echoed everywhere. The impact point is the hiding place of dozens of enemy soldiers, and the next point will be revealed using a small reconnaissance drone.
Meanwhile, Squad A sees the enemy moving among the residents' houses through infrared radiation catchers on one of the APCs .
“Mayor, we see the movement of the enemy. We are in a battle situation. Location is not too profitable, we are in the middle of the houses of citizens.”
“As long as you do not damage civilian property, no problem. Make sure you keep the communication signal connected with us.”
Soldiers can only see what is in front of and beside them. The most dangerous situation is if they are surrounded by enemies in front and behind. Thus, they could not let the enemy pass by. Even so, it is difficult to deal with guerrillas, regardless of how advanced the technology and weapons of an army are.
They will fight enemy attacks, chase while attacking as they escape and get them out of hiding places, it then rained down on the enemy using artillery and destroyed their capabilities as a coordinated force before clearing out any surviving enemy soldiers. This can be compared to the ‘de housing’ tactic, and it is the only quickest and easiest way to gain victory against guerrillas and special forces.
(olog note: de lousing can be interpreted as a tactic of defeating or eliminating enemies systematically and thoroughly)
Meanwhile, the Combat Group 1 personnel advanced slowly in the middle of the forest while guarding themselves, with rifles ready.
“Ogre armored looks and ready to play with us. Prepare grenades!”
After the cry of Kaikoa, a projectile that fired at the enemy shot up and hit the tree that was his protection. Meanwhile, Agus who was ready with his grenade was forced to delay his attack after the enemy turned out to make an attack first.
Kaikoa moved to the tree behind him, and his friends came out of the hiding place to return fire. After which, an Alliance warrior leaped down from the tree.
As if one of their leaping comrades was a signal, the Alliance troops who were lying on their stomachs on the ground and covered by camouflage clothes jumped up and put on a ferocious face with a killing intent in their hearts.
This was a very risky melee fight, fighting at a distance measured in meters.
Without fear, Hassan and his nine subordinates shot at the enemy who had appeared without regard to the slashes of bullets fired by the enemy.
Bayu's 5.56mm submachine gun swept through the ranks of enemy soldiers before they reloaded the magazines in their respective rifles. When the projectile hit the enemy's body, the result was blood spurting in all directions with the bodies of the five Alliance warriors hollowed out like a beehive.
Armored ogres appeared, from the tip of the head and legs protected with strong and thick armor. All of them were holding batons that were as tall as their bodies, and approached the invading Hassanites and took refuge behind trees or rocks.
“Ogre armored does not move fast! Don't panic, we retreat slowly and throw grenades!”
All members of the 1st Fighter Group threw their grenades after an order from Hassan.they returned to being one army that attacked simultaneously.
Not all grenades are on target. However, several armored ogres and Alliance soldiers were trapped inside the explosion and were killed.
Of course not all enemy tactics went smoothly.
There was an Alliance army that was too close to the ogre, and ended up being hit by the swing of the baton and its body was destroyed. It made the enemy's solid and wide siege shrink, and the Alliance's organised counterattack began to weaken.
The commander of Squad C who had an infantry fighting vehicle in the form of a turret with a 40mm automatic cannon and mounted on a tank platfrom and several 70mm portable rocket launchers asked his subordinates who were looking for enemy locations through little scouting drone.
“Have we found the enemy's loksi?”
“Siap, already. They did not move there to here, but to a point, somewhere between the top of the hill and a narrow open area. Enemy seems to be trying to attract the attention of Combat Group 1 to it.”
The ten-inch screen on the APC shows the blue dot as Combat Group 1 and the red dot as enemy troops. They chased after Hassan's group, and approached a narrow open area. After considering their speed of motion…
“Prepare rocket now. Launch 20 seconds from now!” said Commander Squad C.
Three portable rocket launchers were put on the shoulder by three soldiers and three laser-guided rocket controllers. Squad commanders count down based on the current point of the Combat Group 1.
“Launch!”
After Group 1 re-entered the tree area, while the new enemy passed through the open area, the 70mm rocket carrying a 3-kilogram warhead blasted off at mach 1 speed. Three rockets exploded on one side of the hill, leaving some residents feeling the hill was erupting. Rocket blasts set the forest ablaze, and shock waves hurled chunks of earth and rocks. Most of the Alliance soldiers trapped inside this attack lost their lives, while the miraculously survivors began to retreat. This was not a move to re-find the enemy, but to retreat in order to save their lives.
“I didn't lose a genius to Lieutenant Nio, did I?” said the commander of Squad C after successfully saving Combat Group 1 from the pursuit of the enemy by blowing them up.

“Halo, Nio. How many months have we not met, huh?”
He was a man who looked to be over thirty years old, with a slightly distended stomach and a carefree smile that revealed a friendly impression.
“Oh, Mr Kosh Her, are you okay?”
“I'm fine, thanks for your concern. But, thinking that the Kingdom of Arevelk would experience a rebellion like this, perhaps the war would last a little longer. Ah, there is no way a man like me can be your match. I feel you are able to make enough tactics to make the rebels surrender quickly.”
“What? I didn't think of anything at the time. That's how I feel. You are very overrated.”
Kosh Her was the commander of the relief force that Yekirnovo sent to help Arevelk deal with the rebels. He appeared like a grown man who became a servant, giving off a strong warrior aura even though all he did was refill wine without alcohol into Nio's glass, he was one of the soldiers trusted by Sheyn and Ragh, and was involved in the Battle of the Hill a few days ago.
Unlike Nio who gained the ability to create tactics and modify them from the records of famous strategists who lived in the past and the modern knowledge he possessed, Kosh Her ascended slowly from the previous one was the commander of one of the units of the Luan Empire and became a respected officer among the Guild soldiers. He decided to serve the Yekirnovo Kingdom established by Sheyn along with twelve kings of the kingdom under the Luan Empire who continued to lose since they declared war again with Indonesia, and was on the verge of destruction after the TNI brought their allies.
Nio looked respectfully at Kosh Her like the Posthumous Sucipto TNI General who was both distended and had a firm aura with a little humor, very bad to judge someone from the outside appearance.
“I wouldn't call it presumptuous, but I have a question for you, Nio,” said Kosh Her.
“What is it, Mr Kosh Her?” Nio replied then sipped his drink again. He was not very thirsty, but Nio felt that drinking wine without alcohol could reduce the nervousness he felt when dealing with this general's equal commander. He could not let his guard down in the slightest, and felt compelled to listen carefully to the question that the man before him would ask.
Even though Nio had built up a defense in his heart so as not to be surprised upon hearing the question from Kosh Her, Nio was still shocked until his left eye was rounded.
“I just want to know what you're considering if you're married to Her Highness Sheyn.”
“Pbfhuhnshn?!” Nio was barely ready for the question that came for him. He spouted the wine in his mouth. Of course it was seen by Kosh Her, and Nio felt the man might be offended because of his behavior.
Nio coughed loudly, and the corner of his left eye that held back tears from choking and causing a hot throat, “Ma-sorry.”.
“No, it seems to be my fault. Please don't worry about that. I guess I was really presumptuous to ask you such a question,” one of the generals of Yekirnovo Kingdom smiled while giving a small cloth for Nio to wipe his mouth with that thing.
Looking at the seemingly smiling Kosh Her, Nio judged the man as generous and forgiving, but Nio knew Kosh Her was smiling as a formality while inwardly wanting to scold her.
“I only heard it from one of the commanders of the knights of the Barisan of the Roses, the commander of the Red Roses, Seish. He said that His Majesty Sheyn has so many photos of you that he got from ‘dark market’ and he paid very dearly for it, and he always muttered in his room while saying “Ah… please slow down, Mr. Nio. I'm too fast to do this”. He even said treat the gift you gave him like a national treasure.”
Nio was eager to sue the person who had taken his picture without permission for the right to take the picture. If he reported the perpetrator, then his sentence could reach many— years. However, laws governing the right to photograph appear to exist only in Japan, and are unlikely to be treated in Indonesia or there will be a wave of demonstrations everywhere.
“A-I'm too young to get married, Mr. Kosh Her,” Nio just doesn't want his lover to be hurt if he hears that there's a queen in love with him.
“You really aren't too young. Brother, how old are you now?”
“Twenty years seven months. But –“
“Brother, you are at a very normal age to get married and get a wife.”
Nio frowned at hearing such a saying from one of the people he respected, he didn't even think that a general should not talk about the behavior of the person he was serving like that.
Even he does not want a leader who likes something too much to be willing to do anything to get what they like.

At the same time but at different times, at the temporary state palace, Jakarta.
Suroso looked at the photos of otherworldly noble girls he had photographed using his personal mobile phone. The man kept his fondness for young girls a secret, and managed to hide it from his wife and son.
Indeed, attending a party in the Kingdom of Arevelk was the thing that made Suroso happy as well as angry. He felt that he had become familiar with some of the nobles of the Yekirnovo and Arevelk Kingdoms, considering that the two countries are important allies of Indonesia to help avenge the actions of the enemy and ask for compensation forcibly caused by the war they are waging.
“It turns out to be true, you are indeed the youngest president in Indonesian history, huh?”
Hearing a voice so familiar to him, Suroso's face turned pale instantly. Being the youngest president, that means he still has a young soul flowing in his blood and still has the usual young man behavior, such as collecting photos of beautiful and perfect young girls and having a nice body.
“Sa-honey?”
“What?”
Suroso's wife smiled like a murderer who had found her target.
“Sials. Nio is fucking. I shouldn't have listened to her words about the otherworldly girl who was steady-eating!” suroso murmured inwardly as he saw a terrible smile on his wife's face.
Although he and Nio both like young women, Suroso still does not want to make his wife angry because of his passion.
As a sign that something was about to arrive, Suroso's wife stepped towards the exit of her husband's study with a smile still plastered on her face.
“Ntar sleep here. Than to go home and continue in court with his wife before being told to sleep outside.”

Most of the people who attended the inauguration ceremony of the Rebel Extinguishing Force were two to twenty years older than Nio. More importantly, Nio was in this place as the only TNI soldier who was allowed to help the Arevelk problem facing the rebels.
The absence of the process that went through after submitting the request, of course, made Nio somewhat suspicious of General Angga. He may be sanctioned for abandoning his troops while the situation is on the highest level of combat alert.
More importantly, he had to keep up his appearance as a dignified TNI officer even though he was still in his early adult phase. He did not want to humiliate the TNI just because of their one soldier who looked like a bum.
“Now, we will begin the ceremony of the inauguration of the Rebel Extinguishing Force!”
Nio turned his head towards someone who said the sentence with a rather high tone of speech, and the one who spoke was Sigiz.
“And now, on this day that is still in a state of war, I will introduce the Visiting General who will help Arevelk quell the rebels. One of the Indonesian officers, Mr. Nio. And through the Grail Exchange ceremony, I will appoint Mr. Nio as the deputy General of Luhe to lead the troops.”
“Cup Exchange????!!!!!!”
Nio did not understand, but the entire person in this room was shouting like that. He was almost sleepy after a few days of thinking only about his subordinate situation, so he could not guess the situation he was in.
Incidentally, Nio had heard of ‘Silver’, so he knew the gist of Sigiz's speech. Indeed, there are civilizations that consider the ceremony of ‘Cawan Suci’ as a very sacred ritual.
“What does His Holiness Sigiz intend to do the Grail Exchange with that person?” said one of the Arevelk commanders with a troubled face.
“What if I drink a drink in one of those cups?” ask the curious Nio.
“When you drink from that trophy, you will be the one who has the equivalent rank of the Royal Family. If you actually take the oath that His Holiness Sigiz says, you will be bound forever with him.”
“That means?” asked Nio innocently.
“You're married to Queen Sigiz, damn it..!!!”
