◈ Genius Shin-Gung who became a one-man army (136)

Is it because Lian came back?

I can’t say for sure what the reason is, but it feels like it’s been a long time since I’ve felt this way.

The eyes of the Arrowhead unit members blazed like quietly boiling magma.

“This kind of operation… is incredible.”

“Don’t be so shocked. I’ve done far worse operations than this before.”

Arrowhead had grown from a white-collared unit to a thousand-man unit in just over three years.

Moreover, if there is a time that is like a big turning point for the Arrowhead unit, it is the time before and after Lian finished subduing Bieltona.

Naturally, those who had been there before felt pride as if they were the founding members of the Arrowhead unit, and those who joined later had a strange sense of competition not to be outdone by them.

In any case, if you look at it broadly, this is the first war in which the two groups within the Arrowhead unit are united and fighting together.

It is a situation that has great significance in its own way.

“Isaac, if we have to climb the mountain, what do we do?”

“We don’t ride horses. But that doesn’t change our role.”

The unit Isaac commanded was the most powerful mobile unit within the Arrowhead unit.

If a mobile unit is accompanied by a horse, its destructive power increases. But does that mean that its destructive power decreases if it is not accompanied by a horse?

Janiel nodded at Isaac’s words.

“You are right. I was a little mistaken.”

There is no battlefield that is always prepared.

Isn’t it true that a real article is one that must achieve the greatest effect even in a situation where there is a lack of something?

There had been a tremendous change in Janiel since he came to the Arrowhead Unit. No, not just Janiel, but everyone who had come over from the Silver Knights felt the same.

They say that they have been like greenhouse flowers all this time.

Janiel nodded.

“Then I will prepare light armor.”

“I’ll leave the rest of the preparations to you. Please relay this to Theron and Elina so they can proceed without a hitch.”

“yes!”

And soon the entire Arrowhead unit was fully prepared.

A main infantry unit of eight hundred men.

Raymond and Varus each commanded three hundred men, while Herilda, from the neutral region of Borreol, commanded two hundred men.

And the hundred archers were commanded by Gav, and finally the mobile force was commanded by Isaac.

“Is everyone ready?”

“Yes-! That’s right-!”

And the commander who leads them, Lian.

As Lian’s soft voice filled with magic flowed out, the thousand troops raised their voices in unison.

This is enough.

All the things I’ve been training for so far won’t be meaningless.

Lian turned his head.

The hot wind blowing from the west warms my heart.

Perhaps soon the main force of the Artian Kingdom will cross the border of the Meladion Kingdom and a full-scale battle will begin.

From then on, Arrowhead’s arrows will fly towards their most deadly places.

Quickly and accurately.

“Arrowhead, moving.”

A thousand or so troops began to move simultaneously toward the west.

* * *

“It’s just beginning.”

Seyla, who was looking straight ahead, spoke softly as she looked at the soldiers of the Kingdom of Meladion who had already advanced.

Obviously, General Sangklen would go in head-on.

That’s because he’s the kind of person who never even thought about getting close to someone in the first place.

Of course, it is Seila’s role to catch them every time… … .

“It doesn’t matter now.”

bang-!

Suddenly, a tremendous noise erupted from the front.

It would be the sound of General Sangklen, who was at the forefront, breaking through the first barrier of the Kingdom of Meladion.

There is no doubt.

I don’t plan on spending too much time at the border. But there’s one thing that bothers me…

Swish.

Seyla turned her gaze to the left.

‘Is it moving?’

All the nerves in the vicinity were already focused on this place.

Because a ten thousand strong army was gathered, led by General Sangklen.

If so, it would be easy to cross the border. However, the mountain that is connected to Plebol across the border is one of the most dangerous mountains in the Meladion Kingdom.

How to overcome it will be the most important key point in this operation.

Sigh.

Seyla, who was thinking about this, burst into laughter without realizing it.

“Who am I worried about?”

Isn’t that the guy who took on that mission?

For now, all you have to do is wait leisurely.

Seyla waited for news of victory, watching General Sangklen mercilessly trample on his enemies.

* * *

Pavat-! Tadak!

A thousand troops were moving, but the gallop continued without interruption.

The steep mountain path seemed like flat ground to them, and the bushes and towering rocks blocking their path were merely small obstacles.

“stop.”

As Lian, who was running at the very front, stopped and clenched his fist, the deputy commanders quickly began to command their men.

Although we had made it to the middle of the mountain at an absurd speed, we now needed some rest.

“Are there any dropouts?”

“doesn’t exist.”

“We don’t have any either.”

“yes.”

“doesn’t exist.”

Those in charge of each unit nodded at Lian’s words.

Because the unit’s rank system was so well organized, it was quick to grasp the status of a thousand people.

“Everyone is having a hard time. I hope you can get some rest. I’m also… having a hard time.”

Herilda said to Lian.

I was somehow keeping up, but I was slowly reaching my limit.

Other people had the same expression, just they didn’t say anything first.

Lian nodded.

“Of course. Everyone must be very tired.”

Swish.

Then he looked around, got up from his seat and said.

“Let’s rest here for about an hour and then move on.”

“Where are you going, Lian?”

“I need to search around here. I need to check the terrain.”

“I will go with you too.”

“me too.”

Isaac and Raymond got up. Looking at them, Ryan shook his head.

“I’ll be back soon.”

With those words, Lian moved forward, holding the bow in his left hand.

The more you argue, the longer it will take.

Knock!

Lian, who had climbed a little further up from where the men were, soon discovered a large tree and quickly began to climb it.

After kicking a few times and climbing up to the middle of the tree, Lian began to look at the surrounding terrain.

‘It’s definitely… … a little different from what’s on the map.’

I paid a lot of money to get a map, but it was definitely different from the actual place.

Of course, it is much better than nothing, but this does not mean that the efficiency of the route is perfect.

Swish swish- s …

Lian took out a long piece of coal from his bosom and began marking errors on the map.

Even if we just properly indicate the direction in which we should proceed, we can shorten the time by several hours.

“Now…… the main force’s fighting will probably be over soon.”

It’s already been three days since we crossed the border and entered the mountains.

I am simply grateful to the unit members who have followed this harsh schedule without any complaints.

From now on, you have to proceed while controlling your pace as much as possible.

The purpose of the Arrowhead Unit is not to reach the destination, but to cut off the reinforcements heading to Plebol after reaching the destination.

If you use up all your stamina before a full-scale battle, it becomes meaningless.

That is why it is important to distribute your energy appropriately and arrive at your destination on time.

Knock!

After editing the map to the visible location, Lian went straight down.

Suddenly, you can see them all lying down and resting.

When you rest, you must rest properly.

“Isaac.”

“……?”

Isaac, who was leaning against a tree and resting, got up from his seat at Lian’s call.

Isaac approached and asked as Lian nodded her chin.

“Why are you doing that?”

“Look here.”

Lian brought out the map he had revised and handed it to Isaac.

Although we hadn’t reached the bottom of the mountain yet, we had already checked the general route, so we could predict the route ahead.

Isaac looked at Lian with a surprised expression.

“Did you come here to fix this?”

“Because there can be no mistakes.”

I was impressed by Lian, who had climbed up the mountainside with me for several days and then finished checking this on her own.

Lian felt burdened by Isaac’s gaze, so she tapped his chest and pointed to the map.

“At this fork in the road, can we separate the riot police and go to the other side?”

“The other side?”

“Yeah, there’s a small stream there, apparently… but it might be quite deep.”

This is an uncertain map, so use it only as a reference, but be skeptical of everything.

Isaac burst into laughter.

“I will do it no matter what. That’s the Arrowhead Unit.”

Mr. Lian has done so many things better than this.

Isaac swallowed his words and looked at Lian. Lian smiled slightly at him.

“Please.”

“yes.”

In response to Isaac’s answer, Lian quickly began to explain the details of the operation.

And after an hour,

“Let’s go.”

It was a short but sweet break.

My heavy body regained some of its strength to move again, and a strange tension about the battle that would soon unfold beyond the mountain enveloped my whole body.

When the thousand men began to run down the mountain for a long time,

“We go this way from here.”

Isaac led a hundred-man task force and began to pull away from the fork in the road.

The idea is to go straight back to the opposite side of this road and set up an ambush.

If there is a problem,

“……shit.”

Isaac’s expression hardened slightly as he walked down the mountain.

This is because what I thought was a small stream running across the mountain was larger than I thought.

At this point, it could be considered a small river.

That wasn’t the only problem.

“This… seems like the ice is too weak to just cross.”

“The water seems quite deep?”

“……Hmm.”

The problem was that parts of the long river were frozen over.

As the cold winter passed and the weather became warmer, the ice began to melt little by little, which made the situation even more difficult.

‘It would have been easier to cross if it had been frozen.’

In a situation like now, you could fall into the stream while crossing the ice.

Moreover, the water depth seemed quite deep, so it seemed a bit difficult to move hastily.

“Should I go in first? It looks like it’s about neck deep.”

“No, even if you check here, it could be dangerous if the water gets deeper in the middle. And you’re not naked.”

Although it is light armor, the weight of the armor alone is quite heavy.

If the water gets too deep and you fall over, or if you misstep, you could end up in an irreversible situation.

Isaac bit his lip.

‘Just a little stream like this… … .’

Isaac closed his eyes.

What would you do if you were Lian?

‘If it’s Lian… … .’

Isaac immediately shook his head.

Aren’t you Lian?

Think for yourself. And break through.

And at that moment Isaac saw a huge tree trunk stretching out over the stream.

‘That’s it… … !’

“Janiel.”

“yes.”

“Bring me a rope. A thick one, if possible.”

“yes!”

At Isaac’s words, Janiel hurriedly brought the supplies he had from among his men.

It was a rope made by twisting ropes, and it was quite strong and much longer than the width of the river.

“What are you trying to do?”

“Let’s tie a rope over there and cross it.”

“ah?”

At that moment, Janiel opened his eyes wide.

If that’s the case, wouldn’t it be possible to run to the other side?

“It seems like it will work. The branches are thick, so I think it will be enough.”

“Just in case, send someone to check.”

“yes!”

Janiel sent one of his nimble men up onto a tree branch.

Soon, a soldier who had climbed up a tree branch drew a large circle above his head and shouted.

“It’s sturdy!”

“Okay, get ready!”

Soon, the work progressed quickly.

He caught it by tying a thick rope and letting it hang down long.

“Everyone, move.”

Isaac was the first to hang on to the rope and fly to the other side. Then, when he reached the other side, he let go of the rope and jumped down to the other side, crossing the stream.

“Move quickly!”

“yes-!”

Soon, about a dozen soldiers began to climb the rope and cross to the other side at the same time.

Isaac, who had crossed the stream in an instant, turned around to see his men who had crossed without a single one falling behind.

‘I’m going now, Lian.’
