I Am The Monarch
Ghost of the battlefield (2)
"So you mean there's at least 5 grand, right?"
Gale, who returned after receiving a brief report, frowned at the reconnaissance team's story.
"Yes nih . They're probably going to attack tonight. ”
Benson told the story as he had heard from Roan.
And he even made horse boots with his fingers.
Roan looked at that and smiled bitterly.
'There are those who try to take your services wherever you go. '
In his past life, he had always suffered from those people.
But now, it's different.
'I took my own service. '
Meanwhile, Benson finished talking and lowered his head.
"That's why we have to prepare for the night attack. ”
"mmmmmmm. ”
Gale frowned and fell into his mind.
Then, Roan stood in front.
"Commander. ”
"Hmm?"
"Rather than preparing for the night attack, it would be better to attack immediately. ”
"soon?"
When Gale asked back, Roan continued speaking without the slightest hesitation.
“They are in very tired condition. No need to wait for them to recover stamina. Moreover, if more time passed, the number of monsters would increase. Because they will also rest here from the north without stopping. Above everything ……. ”
He glanced at Benson once and made the horseshoes form with his fingers.
“We have a camp on this Pedian plain now. And therefore, the back, which is the south is open. ”
The horse's shoes slowly closed.
“If we let monsters like this ……. ”
His hands meet each other.
The horseshoe shape is now round.
Roan showed his hand to Gale and continued talking.
“We'll end up surrounded. ”
"mmmmmmm. ”
The thoughtful voice came from Gale's mouth.
“Not only now, but he also sees things that will happen from now on. '
He nodded and stood up from his place.
"Roman. ”
"Yes . ”
"The words that you said until now, are you able to say them in front of the commander of the army troops?"
An opportunity .
Roan forcefully swallowed the laughter that was trying to get out.
"Of course . ”
"good. Then let's go to the corps commander. ”
As Gale walked a step ahead of him, Roan followed his back.
Benson's face which he had glimpsed, was so swerving that it seemed like he was chewing on dirt.
'That's why if you try to steal the benefits of the others, you have to steal them perfectly. '
When Gale and Roan came out of the tent, the adjutants sighed.
"For a newcomer soldier to have already met the corps commander. ”
"Yes. I haven't seen him until now. ”
"Wouldn't that bastard be promoted at a fast pace if he stays like this?"
They feel bad.
Then, they saw Benson standing up without knowing what to do.
"Benson. Do you look like a bastard named Roan? ”
"What nonsense are you saying about monsters that attack us in the form of horseshoes but only have to prepare for their attack?"
"Why is military discipline like this today?"
Benson lowered his head in annoyance and reprimanded the aides.
'Dangerous. I should have kept my mouth shut. '
Even if he regretted it, it was useless.
The result of choice is your own responsibility.
Benson's choice of trying to steal the services of others ended in a huge failure.

“It makes sense. ”
Aaron Tate, who was from the aristocracy and at the same time the commander of the seventh army, rubbed his chin and nodded.
“Excellent for a beginner. '
When Gale first brought in a newcomer warrior, he was quite interested.
But as soon as he heard the story about the man, he could not hide the astonishment.
A newcomer warrior was reading the flow of battle and war.
But just because of that, he could not show his emotions as it came from the aristocracy.
He continued to talk with an uninterested face.
“It would definitely be better to sweep them this time. ”
Aaron gathers the commander of the army.
“Monster appears west of the plain. ”
He relayed to them the story he heard from Roan and revealed the attack tactics.
“Send this notice to the other corps and get ready to fight as quickly as possible. ”
"Yes ready ! Be understood! ”
The squad commander replied with one voice.
Aaron's gaze was directed at Roan.
"And you . ”
"Yes ready !"
Roan replied while showing his good military discipline.
Aaron nodded with a satisfied expression.
“When this battle is over, I will reward you according to your ability. ”
"Yes ready! Be understood! ”
Just like he wanted.
“You also hurry up and get ready to fight. ”
"Yes ready . Entiendo. ”
Roan answered and went to his tent with him.
"Why are you late today?"
As soon as he reached the camp, Tane approached.
Roan smiled bitterly and replied.
“You all must prepare for battle. ”
"Prepared to fight?"
Tane frowned and asked back.
All the soldiers who had their leisure time looked at Roan.
Then, a loud voice outside their camp was heard.
“Commander of the team gather! Commanding troops are gathering! ”
Hearing that voice, Tane frowned.
"Did you find anything else?"
Roan laughed awkwardly and answered briefly.
"Monsters. ”
*****
Hoo. Hoo.
Hot steam shaking weeds.
Thousands of soldiers moved slowly with their bodies lowered.
Swooosh's.
Shaking weeds.
Adjutant Jack, who was leading the spears, raised his right hand.
At that moment, the spear that advanced while holding its breath stopped their steps.
Swoooo's.
The west wind blows.
The plain that runs under the hill.
Among the moving weeds, they could see the monsters that were sound asleep.
Gulp.
Everyone swallowed.
Nervous moment.
A heavy silence pressed down on their shoulders.
Jones' adjutant, who led the archers, raised his right hand.
Tensile .
The sound of wood coiling and bow bodies flexing.
Jones looked at the other team aide.
Then, the fallen hand looked forward.
Jones' hand also cut through the air.
Shoot shoot shoot shoot shoot!
20 Soldiers, arrows fired from 100 squads simultaneously.
Two thousand or more arrows covered the sky.
Ow hell!
The sharp scream that hits your ears.
Rain of arrows soaked the ground.
Hit hit hit hit!
"Kugh!"
"Longs!"
"Grs!"
The monster that slept without knowing anything let out a cry.
Ow hell!
It's raining again.
Dudududu.
At the same time, a voice that shook the ground sounded.
Roan stared at his back while lying on the ground.
The cavalry troops were charging up while cutting through the wind.
Behind them, a cloud of white dust surged.
Puuuu!
The sound of trumpets informed the start of the battle.
Dudududu!
The cavalry passed through the infantry and stormed in.
The muscular body of the cavalry troops cut through the wind.
Boom up!
The attack was as if they were planning to destroy everything that was blocking their path.
The cavalry troops hit the ground where the rain arrows fell.
Boom up!
"Kabao!"
"Keee!"
Monsters were bouncing from all directions along with cries.
"Groan!"
Jack, who was looking ahead, stood up and shouted.
"Groan!"
"Groan!"
The spears that were holding their breath all stood up and shouted war.
Roan was among them.
"Groan!"
He shouted with all his strength and charged forward.
Among the clouds of dust raised by the cavalry, they could see monsters fighting back.
Grasping.
He put strength in his hand.
Spears, including Roan, swarmed through the cloud of dust.
