122 – Conquest of Binevia – 1

After annihilating the knights. After annihilating the enemies that followed several times in this way, the Rochepol family’s last unit began to retreat as well.

Even though the Rochepol family eliminated many of the enemies that followed, it was not enough to overturn the overall trend.

Our troops were still suffering great damage, and the enemy’s damage was relatively small.

When our troops arrived at the castle, there were less than 5,000 of them left.

Meanwhile, the number of enemy troops still numbered 15,000. Moreover, since the cannons had been taken away, they were no match for him.

The enemy army quickly began to occupy the castle on the front line based on the overwhelming number of cannons. The Republic of Salerno was completely taken over by the Kingdom of Swadia.

In addition, some territories of the Petrine Republic were also taken away. At this rate, it seemed possible that they could reach Petrius Castle, where Leonia was staying.

But in that situation, the Kingdom of Swadia suddenly retreated. When news of the retreat became known, the nobles were heartbroken, but at the same time they were puzzled.

“Why retreat in such an overwhelmingly advantageous situation?”

But Charles knew the reason. At the same time that Swadia retreated, Glacia returned.

“Thank you for your hard work. “Thanks to you, we all survived.”

“I was just following orders.”

That’s right. Glacia followed my orders. The order I gave was to go to the Kingdom of Illya and send my letter.

And the contents of the letter read as follows.

[The Kingdom of Swadia is invading the Taspilia Peninsula. The Taspilia peninsula has only recently been unified, so it does not have the strength to oppose them. If this continues, the Taspilia Peninsula will be incorporated into the Kingdom of Swadia.]

I simply wrote down the facts. However, this fact alone caused the Kingdom of Illya to fall into a state of emergency. That’s right…

“If Swadia acquires Taspilia, the Kingdom of Ilija will end!”

The Kingdom of Illiya was an island country close to Swadia. Swadia was overwhelmingly strong in terms of military power, but the Kingdom of Illiya was slightly stronger in naval power, so it was not attacked by Swadia. In such a situation, if Swadia takes control of Taspilia, it will acquire Taspilia’s outstanding naval power and have the national power to seriously threaten the Kingdom of Illiya.

For this reason, I sent the most trustworthy Glacia as a messenger under the calculation that the Kingdom of Illiya would not sit still and watch. Upon receiving the letter, the Kingdom of Illiya immediately summoned all its troops and struck Swadia in the back.

Meanwhile, Swadia, who heard the news of being attacked from behind, returned to defend the main camp, and Leonia raised an army again and took over the lost territory of the Salerno Republic.

After that, a joint front between Illya and Taspilia unfolded.

Accordingly, Charles Jean Rochepol succeeded in persuading the Kingdom of Illya, and Salome de Hiron succeeded in persuading the royal family of the Kingdom of Cylonia, and the Triple Alliance of Illia, Cylonia, and Taspilia was completed, resulting in the Siege of Swadia. This unfolded.

Because of the three kingdoms’ siege of Swadia, Swadia could not attack either side. When attacking Silonia, Illya and Taspilia attacked the rear, and when attacking Illya, Taspilia and Silonia attacked the rear. In that way, time passed slowly, with Swadia unable to do anything.

As time passed, Leonia smiled. Taspilia was as wealthy a country as Swadia, and because it was a center of trade, many scientists from the Eastern Continent came into the country, making it a land that was very advanced in terms of military science.

Five years have passed since then, and nothing much has changed. The three kingdoms were still besieging Swadia, and the King of Swadia, Philip de Swadia, was wasting his time missing an advantageous time.

Meanwhile, Leonia solidified the internal stability of the country. The Tripartite World was a great success, with the three countries of Taspilia, Swadia, and Chronor keeping each other in check, with neither side able to make a hasty move.

Meanwhile, the Grand Duchy of Kronor invaded Binevia, the territory of the deceased Crown Prince Leonhard von Arcadia, three times, but all three times ended in draws and did not achieve any real military success.

This was the power of Luna von Luitbert, the famous general of Binevia. Luna von Ruit Wert is now 26 years old, but she is not married. This was because she would not be able to protect her country if she became pregnant.

Luna was a person with such determination. She was a person who risked everything to protect her country throughout her life.

Meanwhile, her son Adolfs von Arcadia, who succeeded the Crown Prince, was 16 years old at this time, and Luna thought quite highly of her Crown Prince Adolfs. This is because the military power he showed in previous wars was quite outstanding.

However, Adolfs had a fatal weakness: he exposed women. Not only did he invite women to the palace on odd days and have fun, he even flirted with Luna, his vassal.

Luna did not like that aspect of Adolfs, but she believed that she was better than the crown prince anyway, and she followed Adolfs. Her combination of being the best strategist and a monarch who would listen no matter what was enough to stop Emilia.

Meanwhile, the Kingdom of Taspilia was reaching its heyday. Previously, the Taspilia peninsula was not a unified country, so there was severe polarization, with the north being extremely wealthy and the south being extremely poor. However, during the reign of Leonia, policies were put in place to prevent exploitation by clergy and landowners and to focus taxes on nobles and royals. By doing so, he increased the wealth of the country and enriched the lives of the people.

With the increased amount of taxes, various policies were implemented to unite the Taspilia peninsula, such as reforming the currency, unifying the peninsula’s currency, improving roads, and unifying weights and measures.

Also, taxes on merchants were greatly reduced to promote commerce in the north, which made Taspilia a country with a great commercial influence on the entire continent of Arcadia.

Of course, because the reform was too hasty, many rebellions occurred. In particular, because the privileges of the clergy were greatly restricted, many rebellions broke out among the existing clerical forces, but Leonia suppressed them with force. Since there was an internal fight, it was natural that there would be an external attack, but that did not happen.

In the case of the Binevia region, which borders the border, it had no power to attack the south because it had used up all its strength to block Emilia in the north, and in the case of Swadia in the west, it was part of the three-nation alliance of Illya, Silonia, and Taspilia. They could not attack Taspilia because it was under siege.

The Grand Duchy of Kazan attacked only a few times, but they were nomads and the nomads’ army was weak to firearms, so they were able to repel them without difficulty.

When five years had passed since the defeat, the Kingdom of Taspilia in Leonia was at the peak of its national power.

—–

Then one day, Leonia pulled out a sword.

“Five years ago, I suffered a major defeat and lost most of my army. However, over the next five years, we worked tirelessly to solidify our internal affairs and grow our army, and were able to once again gather 25,000 elite soldiers.”

This was an army with a number comparable to that of Swadia, which was considered the strongest in the world. In addition, our army was more technologically advanced than the Swadia army, so if we fought now, we would definitely be able to engulf Swadia.

The nobles who knew this exclaimed in exclamation.

“Oh, are we finally hitting Swadia?”

Diane de Balboa asked, but Leonia shook her head.

“Even if we destroy the Swadia army, the Kingdom of Illiya and Silonia will only benefit. The moment Swadia’s army is defeated, the two kingdoms will try to take over Swadia’s empty territory. The worst situation will come when we have to defeat Swadia and then have to deal with them as well. “It is not Swadia that we are attacking.”

“Then…” ?”

“Binebia.”

Vinebia. At those words, the nobles began to stir. If it was Binevia, there was definitely a possibility. Vinebhia, under the command of Luna von Luitbert, prevented several attacks from the Grand Duchy of Kronor, but due to fighting the Grand Duchy of Kronor several times, she had no national power left. Their military strength is at most 15,000. Compared to our allies, there are 10,000 fewer.

In addition, Binevia is the economic center of the Arcadian Empire. If she eats the Vinebian fat, Princess Leonia will instantly become the loser of the Arcadian Empire and it is not even a dream for her to be crowned emperor.

“Emperor… “

The nobles murmured as someone muttered.

“If we take the Vinebian region, it is not a dream to go from His Majesty the King to His Majesty… “

“Your Majesty, Emperor Leonia von Arcadia!”

“Arcadia – Taspilia United Empire!”

“It’s like a dream!”

The first emperor took control of the Arcadian Empire and brought the rest of the countries to his feet with his overwhelming national power. But will a nation emerge that unites the Arcadia Empire and the Kingdom of Taspilia? This would lead to the birth of a tremendous nation that could go beyond being the world’s strongest nation and aim for world domination.

Diane de Balboa was the first to step forward.

“Please make the Balboa family the vanguard!”

Salomé de Jirón and Yuria Russell also appeared.

“The Heeron family can also take charge of the vanguard at any time!”

“No! “The Russell family!”

Her nobles wanted her to appoint their own family as her vanguard, and Princess Leonia gave that honor to her Balboa family. This is because the assault power of Dian, the world’s second-ranked sword master, has already been proven.

Just like that, our army began to advance toward world conquest.
