Civil Servant in a Romance Fantasy - Chapter 355

355 – Wolves and Dogs – 3

Dorgon’s Beltu incident was completed without incident. Some people were terrified that the enemy had tore the sky, but the fear turned into cheers, probably because they succeeded in counterattacking immediately. There is a strong man who can cut the sky in the enemy army? Isn’t it a matter of having a similarly strong person in the allies?

Even the Jeon Seung-gong smiled as if he was satisfied with the fact that the fraud that almost fell to the ground was over. I don’t know if it’s privately, but when I lead the army, I’m a strict person, but how good it feels to see such a jeonsonggong smiling at the garrison.

‘It’s worth liking.’

In fact, it is not strange to give a standing ovation instead of a smile when you think of the suffering experienced by the war veterans during the last war.

Now that I can cut the sky, I immediately succeeded in counterattacking, but only Kagan was able to cut the sky at the beginning of the Great Subjugation War. In other words, there was no way to prevent the morale of allies from falling if Kagan cut the sky.

The memory of commanding his troops in that atrocious situation will remain in the head of the successor. So this counterattack will be heartwarming.

“There was a small conflict in the territory of the Hitra tribe.”

Anyway, Jeon Seung-gong, who stopped the chaos, started occupying the nearby area as soon as his garrison installation was finished, and Section 4, who acted as my escort, relayed information to me whenever it came in.

“Really? Were there any tribes that lived there?”

“The scale was more like a clan than a tribe. Besides, the fleeing nomads fired only a few arrows, so it would be embarrassing to call it a clash.”

It was not an attack by nomads, it was a work to drive out the natives. If so, it would be ambiguous to even call it a collision. The Imperial Army wouldn’t have focused on the pursuit because they were focusing on occupying the territory.

Thanks to that, there hasn’t been anything called a battle yet, but in the future, conflicts will occur to the point where I miss the current peace.

“If you came down to the ruins of the destroyed tribe, other tribes would have spread nearby as well.”

Chief 4 also nodded at those words. If you came down from the wide and wide north to the base of the destroyed tribe, and even to a place adjacent to the empire, there was no free space around it. Maybe they couldn’t intervene because they were dominated by weaker tribes.

If that’s the case, there will be a conflict between the empire trying to expand its territory little by little and the tribe trying to protect it. Or the neighboring tribes could attack first.

The fact that blood flows either way doesn’t change.

“Let’s be at headquarters together starting tomorrow. It’s better to hear directly than to hear about it.”

“Yes, master.”

I opened my mouth a couple of times at the firm answer, then shut it again. It doesn’t matter if you call me master when we’re with each other, but it’s difficult when other people are around.

First of all, it is a problem that the powers belonging to the Ministry of Special Affairs regard someone other than the emperor as the owner, but it is also a formidable problem that the word master comes and goes between lovers. If they were found out, rumors would spread that he was the head of the brute force rather than the head of the inspection department.

‘…Not a kid to make mistakes.’

The reason I kept my mouth shut was because I believed in Section 4. The 4th section chief isn’t the kind of kid who would embarrass me, so I won’t call him master even in front of others.

I believe so.

Starting from the occupation of all the areas designated by the legend, simultaneous battles began.

We haven’t reached the point where 10,000 units of troops collided yet─ but in the morning, the wake-up call is sounded due to the raid of nomads, at noon, the imperial army marches into the territory of a nearby tribe, and in the evening, they are in the middle of a fight and play well. Is the situation. Since these battles were taking place everywhere, the leadership was busy moving.

“About 800 nomads have appeared on the Bakirah frontline. Hutus Bagia, who went missing with Dorgon in the past, is in command.”

“We have occupied the southern part of the territory of the Larkin tribe, but the resistance is fierce and confrontational. We are requesting the mobilization of the Wizards in the field.”

“Reports have come that Kesik’s flag is visible on the Sutio front. Judging from the absence of a major offensive, it seems that some of the Kesiks have come as commanders.”

I was really busy moving.

‘This is the headquarters.’

When I was working as a team leader, the headquarters I could visit when called by the successor. Right now, I’m staying at the headquarters like a jiba-ryeong, so I’m intuition of all kinds of information.

It is a very different experience. Information that hundreds or thousands of troops are on the move floods in in an instant, and responses to deal with those troops come out casually. A place where the fate of hundreds or thousands of people can be decided with just one word.

If you think about it, there were more hard-headed and cold-hearted people than belligerent ones among high-ranking military officials. Up until now, I had just thought so, but now I think I know why.

‘It must be hard to endure if you have a lot of emotions.’

Innumerable lives are shattered with a single gesture or word. Your mentality will break first. Especially for field commanders who often come into contact with soldiers.

…No, would the field commander be on the side of the grind rather than the one giving the order? I do not know.

“Your Excellency, the Kaitana tribe is moving south to the Heatra front! The size is 3,000!”

While idly listening to the reports of the staff, the gaze of the Jeon Seung-gong was moved by an urgent cry from a staff member.

‘Three thousand?’

Similarly, my gaze also turned to the staff member.

3,000 Is not a figure to be taken lightly. I don’t know if it’s a united force, but it’s a pretty large number for a single tribe to lead. This was a figure that only the named tribe could mobilize during the last war.

‘Kaitana…’

First of all, it’s a name I’ve never heard of. If you look at what the staff knows, it seems like the information they asked for through reconnaissance recently. If so, it seems that they are a tribe in the third camp who watched neutrally in the last war.

It’s amazing. Even when Kagan led the anti-imperial tribes, he shuddered at how he had raked in 100,000, but there were still more tribes that could mobilize thousands. If they had joined Kagan, the war would have gone even more crazy.

But the tribe is moving south now?

‘Damn it.’

Not very good news. If there were only a few more such tribes under Dorgon’s command, it is highly likely that they would have gathered at 70,000 instead of the minimum of 60,000.

“Tell the wizards stationed in Hitra. When the Kaitana tribes come within range, attack them all at once.”

“Yes, sir!”

As the scale of the enemy is large, the staff hurriedly listened to the communication tool at the order to drive bamboo spears into the pit of the stomach.

The number of 3,000 itself is a problem, but when the Kaitana tribe joins the nomads who are already roaming the front of Hitra, it becomes a threatening number. In addition, other tribes other than Kaitana could break through 10,000 if they were descending from the south.

‘10,000 In the plain.’

It gives me goosebumps. The area of Hitra is not very large, the troops stationed there are relatively few, and the fortifications have not progressed much.

Of course, gathering 10,000 people is always the worst case. Are the leaders not stupid and just watching the enemies unite? Even now, they are diligently stirring the north and blocking the linkage of each tribe, so unless Dorgon launches an all-out offensive, there will be no sudden grouping of 10,000.

Still, 3,000 nomads are not weak. Repel with as little damage as possible.

Once there was no damage.

“There was no conflict?”

And there were no results.

“Yes. They wandered around as if they were showing off, but that was all. They say they kept their distance without even searching.”

At the Jeonseunggong’s doubtful question, the staff member nodded his head.

And the other staff and commanders gathered at the headquarters touched their chins or started whispering, as if they were puzzled by the report.

“Aren’t you here to capture the troops stationed in Hitra? If there are thousands of nomads nearby, it’s difficult to move first.”

“It makes sense, but why do you use heat? It would be more efficient to add a little more and tie the Bakir’a wires.”

The confrontation was maintained without any conflict on the topic of leading the largest scale and proudly moving south. No one has been able to give a clear answer to this strange phenomenon.

The confrontation itself is not strange. A battle isn’t some kind of Pokemon battle, and it’s just a crazy person if you immediately meet eyes. Waiting for the right moment is, of course, a form of strategy.

However, it is strange that there is no collision beyond simple confrontation. It is a nomadic people to poke with overwhelming mobility and constantly shoot arrows like a student putting a love letter in a shoebox. Aside from the confrontation, armed provocations are as if they are breathing.

“I don’t understand.”

Jeon Seung-gong muttered as if representing his feelings. It’s strange that he didn’t touch the expeditionary force waiting at the border, but now even in a war situation, something happened.

In fact, if the enemy is quiet, it is good for the allies, but the leadership is confused by the strange belief that nomads can never be quiet. Maybe that’s what you’re aiming for? If so, that’s great.

“…First of all, as long as the Kaitana tribe is holding out, the movement of allies stationed in Hitra is also blocked. You can’t attack first with the garrison in Hitra alone, but you can’t leave your seat, right?”

In the meantime, Jeon Seung-gong also nodded his head at the words of a staff member who opened his mouth as if he was embarrassed.

As other advisers have said, it doesn’t make sense to keep Hitra in check, but whatever the intention, the result of Hitra being tied up remains the same. Well, it seems that other tribes have decided to take charge of the other fronts.

In this way, the Kaitana tribe decided to maintain a defensive posture against Hitra, which was casting ‘I, Advent.’ There is no other way than that.

So the next day.

“There were no crashes this time either.”

The next day.

“It’s the same as yesterday.”

Again the next day.

“It is said that five or six nomads left the camp and lingered around the area, but only fired a few arrows and returned.”

“What about the damage?”

“No. It wasn’t even within range in the first place.”

The next day again.

“The shamans of the Kaitana tribe used AoE shaman─ but this time, they cast it out of range, so there was no damage to their allies.”

“…….”

Jeon Seung-gong was at a loss for words due to the accident-free record for as many as five days in a row.

If the other fronts are also quiet, I’d rather the nomad camp notice it, but the other fronts are fighting bloody.

‘What are these bastards?’

What is it really? Is there any way to participate in a war between nomads as a daily quest? So, are you just attending?

Confused. Unlike his magnificent appearance, his actions were not substantial. Just full of show

…

‘Show me?’

I recalled the information about the Kaitana tribe for a moment. Unlike the anti-imperial tribes that fell in love with the kagan, the tribes from the third camp remained neutral. The hikikomori tribe only appeared after Dorgon declared himself khan.

Those who lead such a heavy body to the front line, show off their size to the imperial army who will be watching them, and confront them.

‘You bastard.’
