The Dungeon Master's
Chapter 210 - Adu Strategy
...Kingdom Salvation...
...Reinard city...
'Bruck!'
"What did you say?!" Chris shouted while hitting his desk strongly. He seemed so angry at what was going on.
"As I said, the Northern assault on the 2 small towns has been thwarted. The cause is the presence of the Hero of Farna Kingdom who is able to raise the morale of their troops, as well as intimidate our troops, Your Majesty." Replied a man wearing a rather dark armor nervously.
He was the Army General in charge of this battle. Even so, he had failed in his duty on this first day. The 100,000 troops entrusted to him, now only about 50,000 soldiers left.
Hearing that, Chris looked furious.
"Damn it.... What the hell is going on? How could Farna, such a poor Kingdom and still in a bad state have someone as strong as them? This.... This must be cheating!" Chris shouted annoyed.
While he was still questioning the ongoing war, a beautiful blue magic circle appeared before him.
'Wuuoooshh'
With a light blue light so beautiful, the figure of 3 people appeared to appear behind it.
Neo, Alice and Archie the Mystic Bard.
Shortly after they arrived in this room, Alice immediately reported the conditions that were going on.
"Chris. Mastering the City under the Alpa Mountains was almost impossible." Alice said briefly as she moved her legs closer to Chris.
Neo appears to be removing some files from his Inventory and will explain something.
"Alice's right. I had just been from there and saw the state of his own battle with my eyes. The defensive walls of the City within the mountain were completely thick and had no gaps. Even when we tried to hit it with magic, they protected the wall with [Mana Shield] so we had trouble breaking through it." Obviously Neo is long.
Archie then continued the conversation.
"I keep playing music to increase the strength of our entire army but.... The enemy on the side of the Farna Kingdom seemed to be so prepared for this battle. In the city that has almost 1 million inhabitants, 4 heroes of Farna Kingdom protect it with all their might. Breaking through his defenses was very difficult despite bringing in 50,000 troops."
Archie explained the situation with a voice so melodious and a charming face.
Hearing this, Chris looked even more upset.
"50,000 troops you said were unable to conquer the city hiding under that mountain?! You think I'm...."
But before Chris could finish his words, Alice cut him off at lightning speed.
"Corrections. Not 50,000 Chris, but now the only troops left to invade the City were 30,000 men. Now I've brought the entire invading army back to Salvation to rest and...."
'Braaakk! Paarr!'
Although Chris' anger was so sudden, strangely the three of them seemed not at all surprised at it.
They seem to know that Chris will at least do that to vent his anger.
"Damn it.... If it continues like this.... Nah! What about the enemy's losses?" Chris asked with such sharp eyes.
"The Kingdom of Farna.... The possibility of losing about 20,000 soldiers alone." Neo reply brief.
"W-what?! You didn't say anything wrong, Neo?" Chris asked in astonishment.
"No. At most they lost 30,000 soldiers if they saw this condition. Lagupula, their defense is so solid that all their recruitment forces are prepared for our invasion."
The strategy he's going to do now? Sure do....
By infiltrating several locations and destroying important defense points such as Balista and Onager heavy equipment, then opened the gate of the defense wall in the City to be attacked.
Not only that, Chris also decided to concentrate his troops to several Cities to pound him with all his might.
At that moment....
...***...
...Farna Kingdom...
...City Forgia...
In this humble throne room, the King, Arlond, is in discussion with his Ministers and War Generals.
"I-I'm sorry for your kindness, Your Majesty, but where is the information...." Said the general confused.
Arlond who is the cause of confusion among some ministers actually smiled with a pretty scary face.
"Original information? Of course from my own experience. All my life, I have studied and witnessed countless battles from countless kingdoms as well. Such a problem, it only needs to be briefly thought through to realize it." Arlond said with a big smile.
"really.... A real hero...."
"True hero...."
All Ministers including the General of the Army could only increasingly praise and respect the figure named Arlond.
How not, his leadership has always produced satisfactory results. Moreover, each of his predictions was always on target as if he could indeed see the future.
Then now? The same person said that he had followed countless battles?
Of course, everyone immediately believed it because all Arlond's words had never been wrong.
Although....
'How not, I am a historian who values medieval history. Things like this are very trivial.' Thought Arlond with a smile and closed both eyes.
"So Your Majesty said we should guard some of those important locations and ignore the others?" Ask the Minister of Defense.
"No. I want you to keep it as usual. If you can, don't show the slightest change in our defense. All of that was aimed at luring them into our trap." Obviously Arlond while lightly hitting the map that was on that table.
Everyone who heard it seemed to be amazed by the words of Arlond.
After a moment of pausing his words, as if to give everyone a chance to understand his plan, Arlond then continued.
"Just put 5 to 10 people in the location I mentioned just now. Make sure the people chosen are the elite among the elite. Make them disguise themselves as merchants or even ordinary residents. Their function is only as a supervisor and will report it to all soldiers who are on standby. Including the first fight.
Therefore, their chances of death would be extremely high. Make sure you choose the right soldiers for this mission. And also, this was not only for the Forgia City, but included the entire Village and City that were in the Farna Kingdom.
The reason is very simple. It was because after the first defeat of the Kingdom of Salvation, they would cover up the lack of information by infiltrating or infiltrating. Along with that, they would resort to low-level tactics such as poisoning wells, burning food sheds, spying on troop movements, and opening gates."
Arlond ended his lengthy explanation with a smile filled with confidence.
Simultaneously, the impromptu attacks carried out by Salvation ceased.
Now that awaits them, is a battle between the thinkers of these two Kingdoms. A small-scale battle, but it will determine the course of this war forever.
