123 – Conquest of Binevia – 2

[To Luna von Luitbert, the famous general of Binevia. Memories of studying with you as an alumni come back to me. You were the most capable and outstanding person in the military management department. Since you are holding on to a collapsing nation and somehow bringing it back to life, it would be no surprise to call you the world’s greatest tactician. But since you are a brilliant person, you would know better. The fact that there is no more hope in the Kingdom of Binevia. You are a worthy human being. Rather than insisting on being the guardian of a failing nation and then falling with it, why not follow a rising nation? Her Royal Highness Princess Leonia is ready to welcome you at any time. To the world’s greatest trickster, the Duke of Rochepol, an unknown minor.]

Luna stared at the handwriting blankly for a while. Once upon a time, she got tired of looking at Charles’ handwriting. He had terribly bad writing. He was a strange person who had good writing skills but poor handwriting. Does that mean he doesn’t write in his hometown? It was to the point where I had that question.

In any case, judging by the handwriting, it was indeed Charles Jean Rochepol’s handwriting. This was proven by the pretentious handwriting that seemed strangely rushed and tried to be stylish.

When Luna saw the contents of her letter, she crumpled it up and tried to throw it away. However, despite the content of her letter, the writing in it was precious, so she decided to keep it. Of course, if she was caught by someone, she would be accused of betraying her, but at that time, she planned to accept that as fate.

And Luna wrote a reply.

[To Charles Jean Rochepol of the Kingdom of Taspilia. Although you called yourself an unknown minor, you are often heard about your activities even here. Although you have few notable military achievements, I heard that you played a big role in establishing strategy and correcting the direction of the country. Currently, the world is divided into three major states: Swadia, Chronor, and Taspilia. I heard that you created this structure. Moreover, the idea of besieging Swadia with the Triple Alliance, which involved the Kingdom of Illya and the Kingdom of Silonia, also came from your head. There have been many ideas before to divide the world into three, but no one has succeeded in doing so. I applaud your resourcefulness in making this plan, which was largely in the planning stages, a reality. Your presence must be like a blessing to Princess Leonia. But that’s why I ask you: Let’s say your main army is being attacked from both the front and rear, and your forces are being devastated to the point where there is no hope of survival. So, will you abandon your master and transfer to another faction? If I answer that question, I think the answer I will send to you will naturally come out.]

And Charles, who received this letter, was curious. Princess Leonia falls into a state of no recovery? So, of course you’re going to look into other forces, right?

However, in Luna’s case, it seemed like she sent the letter thinking that Charles would definitely not betray her. This was a gross overestimation.

Anyway, Luna’s will was firm. It seemed that he would never betray his lord Adolphus von Arcadia.

Charles checked Luna’s handwriting. It’s obviously cursive, but it’s a regular handwriting that looks like it was printed on a computer. It was extremely clear that this handwriting, which was easy to recognize even though it was scribbled, was Luna’s. In this era without computers, Luna was a rare master pen that could rival a computer.

Although Charles was not satisfied with the contents of the letter, he was very happy to receive Luna’s letter for the first time in a while, so he decided to fold the letter and keep it. Without even knowing that Luna had done the same thing.

In this way, the strategists on both sides confirmed that there was no wavering in each other’s hearts, and Charles began to advance toward Vinebbia as planned.

Meanwhile, Luna von Luitbert, a treasonist in the Kingdom of Binevia, was suffering from headaches.

The Grand Duchy of Chronor is attacking from the front, and Princess Leonia is attacking from the rear.

Even if we could stop Princess Leonia, it seemed almost certain that the country would be ruined if Grand Duke Chronor continued to attack.

Even though Archduke Cronor’s attacks were barely repelled several times, this crisis was truly Binevia’s greatest crisis.

That is why Luna von Luitbert advised her lord Adolphus.

“Lord, we must reach a settlement with the Leonian army as quickly as possible. If you delay the war, there is a possibility that you will win the battle and lose the war. “The Chronor army will definitely attack from behind.”

“Then what do you think?” “

“Quickly destroy the Leonian army in the front and move the army to destroy the Chronor army in the rear as well. That’s the only scenario where our military wins.”

However, the Leonian army had 25,000 and the Chronor army had 15,000. A total of 40,000. Are you going to destroy them both individually? No matter how much I thought about it, it seemed like an unlikely story.

“It seems like there is no chance of victory, so it would be better to surrender…” “

Luna frowned at this.

“If your will is truly so, I will follow, but keep in mind that they will never leave you a single pyeong of land. “If you are caught by them, your master will be dead.”

“Why do you say that?”

“My lord, you are the most legitimate heir to the throne of the Arcadian Empire. If Leonia captures the lord, the lord will definitely try to kill Princess Leonia since he is superior to Princess Leonia in terms of legitimacy. If Grand Duke Cronor captures the lord, he will hand over the lord to Leonia and receive land in return. No matter which side you are caught in, you must know that your life is dead to your lord. “I also know that, so I am trying to protect my master.”

“… “

Adolfs had never felt so cursed at his orthodoxy as he did now. Obviously, in a peaceful era, strong legitimacy would have been a good justification for inheriting the emperor’s crown, but in this era of war, strong imperial legitimacy was like a poison that could harm one’s life.

“Then…” “What should I do?”

“The answer is simple. Our army drove the army south to meet the enemy in a place called the Rubia Plain and won the turn, then drove the army back to the north and defended the territory. That way, we can block both Leonia and Kronor.”

“Although I have not studied military strategy in detail, I know how foolish it is. Don’t you mean that after defeating 25,000 with 15,000, you will defeat 15,000 again? Do you think that is possible?”

“It is possible. No matter how successful the Leonian army is, it is bound to have weaknesses. If you attack that weakness, you can win at least once. It might be difficult twice. And the Chronor army just needs to be defeated as always. Instead… “

“Instead?”

“You must give me full authority. This is because for my operation, my troops need to move as one body. My lord, I earnestly ask you to do so. Please leave the commander-in-chief of this defensive battle to me. “This is not because I covet a major, but to save my lord’s life.”

Adolfs could not refuse such earnestness. He felt that if he made an easy decision, his high-ranking officials, such as Liam, would protest in the future, but he still had no choice. He knew from previous experience. The person who saves him in danger is not Liam or any other high-ranking official, but Luna von Ruytwert.

“My… “I will.”

In this way, full authority over the 15,000 troops of the Binevian army was delegated to Luna von Ruytwert, and Luna von Ruytwert led the entire army and deployed it on a plain named Rubia.

Meanwhile, Leonia was dumbfounded when she found out that the Binevian army had deployed its entire army on the plains.

“Are you saying that Mercury is going to be difficult to block even if we do our best? Are you planning on risking everything in one shot? “It’s just pathetic.”

Leonia considered the opponent’s strategy pitiful. This is because I thought it was just a gambler’s strategy to get one shot. War is about building up a building step by step, starting from the pillars, to achieve the intended victory, but the opponent was going against the natural course of war.

However, Charles Jean Rochepol had a different opinion.

“Your Highness, you must not underestimate your enemy. The enemy’s commander-in-chief is Luna von Ruybert. He is the one who stopped Emilia von Kronor several times. “There must be something.”

“If this were a mountain, a river, or a hill, I would also be worried about that. But this is a plain. “The fight on the plains is a 100% power struggle and there is no room for ingenious strategies.”

The one who knew it best was Leonia. This is because Leonia was defeated in the battle with Swadia due to the overwhelming difference in power. But Leonia didn’t know. What I was saying was that Luna von Luitbert was a greater person than I thought.

Even a battle that seems impossible at first glance has a chance with Luna. Therefore, Charles decided to think as much as possible about strategies that Luna might use. Soldier quality. The allies are overwhelming. Amount of soldiers. The allies are overwhelming. The only thing that could cause our team to lose…
