The Immortal Genius Spearman (100)
“So they made a decision in the end?”

Fiarren pursed his lips at the fact that the army of the Baroque Kingdom was advancing on the capital of the Spanish Kingdom.

“It seems like there were quite a few troops left in the province?”

In response to Piaren’s question, the adjutant next to him approached and spoke.

“Except for the capital, the number of troops in the provinces is less than 20,000. There have been considerable losses recently due to the deployment of troops to the surrounding kingdoms.”

Didn’t all the Spanish Kingdom troops guarding the capital die?

The Spanish kingdom had already been completely devastated under the Empire’s feet.

Piaren nodded to the adjutant’s words.

“Kill everyone who remains in the palace and hang them outside the castle. We must make it clear what happens to those who resist us.”

The plan to exploit the Spanish kingdom was completely ruined.

In that case, it would be most advantageous for them to completely crush them and use the Spanish Kingdom as a new stronghold.

Piaren looked at the adjutant and asked.

“Who took the lead?”

“This is Roberta.”

“Roberta, you are a brave commander.”

Piaren nodded.

Among those who followed him, the general who was skilled in both civil and military affairs was Roberta.

If he is the commander, he will be able to stop even the alliance of the Baroque and Spanish kingdoms.

“We will see the armies of the two allies trampled underfoot by the Empire.”

The combined armies of the Baroque Kingdom and the Spanish Kingdom numbered approximately 30,000.

It was truly a huge number of troops.

“How interesting, a war of this scale… …isn’t this the first time?”

It took five years for Piaren to become a captain after receiving the knighthood.

And now, the eyes of the Auror Master sparkled with interest.

“Yes, it has been a series of peaceful days.”

Of course, there had been many battles fought secretly across the continent, but this was the first war involving such a large number of troops.

Times when every day was filled with boredom.

Now… … .

“The continent will be stained with blood.”

Piaren raised the corners of his lips and spoke to his adjutant.

“Get ready to welcome our guests. This is where we will be celebrating a new phase of the continent.”

With the screams of the Baroque Kingdom and the Spanish Kingdom.

The smile on Piaren’s lips was growing deeper.

* * *

“… … What is this?”

A signal flare fired by Diana while out on a reconnaissance mission.

Seeing the signal flare, Damian led the Kion unit and arrived at the promised location.

And what I encountered there was.

“What is this?”

Damien looked at the young child with Diana with a puzzled expression.

Is he only two years old now?

Diana said at Damian’s confused look.

“I am the prince of the Spanish kingdom.”

“prince?”

For a moment, Damien’s expression hardened.

Because just that one word told me what the situation was.

Damian asked.

“Who were the ones guarding the prince?”

“When we arrived, there was only one person. And now… … .”

Diana turned her gaze to the side.

Damien followed the guy and looked at the place together.

“Ugh… … Ugh… … !”

A man is lying groaning in a place where he has cut grass and made a place to lie down.

The scars all over his body were so severe that they made anyone who saw him frown.

Damn it.

Damien took a step towards him.

“You’ve managed to hold on.”

It’s a wound so severe that it wouldn’t be strange if I died.

Nevertheless, what moved him was probably his sense of duty to protect the prince.

Then someone grabbed Damian by the leg of his trousers.

“… … ?”

When Damian turned his head to look to the side, the prince of the Spanish kingdom was looking at him with a tearful expression.

like…….

‘Please save me. Please… Please save me.’

The guy’s eyes seemed to say so.

Does this little guy understand what’s going on?

“… … .”

Although he couldn’t speak, I could see the earnestness in his eyes.

Damien told Pennil, who was treating him.

“Don’t be stingy with the herbs. They seem to be very precious to this prince.”

Besides, this guy is the prince of the Spanish kingdom.

“And if you save that guy, you may receive a great reward from the Spanish Kingdom in the future.”

“Hehehehehe.”

“Kuuuuuuu, when will that be later?”

The unit members burst into playful laughter at Damien’s words.

The rather serious atmosphere seemed to be easing up a little.

But Fennel was treating the knight with a rather serious expression.

and.

“… … Phew.”

Fennel got up from his seat, wiping his bloody hands with a towel.

The beads of sweat forming on his forehead seemed to indirectly show how concentrated he was.

Then Damien asked Pennile.

“how is it?”

“The crisis has passed. The bleeding has stopped… … and the badly cut area has been stitched up. Among the herbs that were distributed, there is one that has a disinfecting effect, so you don’t have to worry about inflammation.”

“That’s fortunate.”

In a battlefield like this, treating primary wounds is important, but if disinfection is not done properly, there are often cases where the wounds fester and lead to death.

Since Damien had already been through many battles, he had also included some disinfectant herbs in his supplies to prevent secondary infections.

But even though the treatment went well, seeing the wounds on his body made me feel sorry for him as a fellow soldier.

Especially the fact that I would never be able to lift a sword again.

“… … Still, I survived, so that’s good enough. That alone could be called a stroke of luck.”

Damian looked at the Prince of Spain, still holding onto his trousers.

“The prince’s subject seems to be lucky. This is also your blessing.”

At the end of that despair, our scouts discovered him.

‘You can’t explain everything simply by being lucky.’

His obsessive sense of mission must have kept him here.

One step, another step.

All those times of running away, fighting, and running away again piled up to save the prince.

‘He’s a great man.’

Damien simply admired his obsession and hard work.

“Prepare a stretcher. We will carry the author together.”

“Yes, Captain.”

“All right.”

At Damien’s command, the men quickly gathered long branches and made a stretcher with their shirts attached to them.

Although the stretcher was made in a jiffy, it was still enough to move the injured person.

Damian quickly picked up the prince who was holding his trousers.

“Then let’s go find the house that was taken away. But you will receive the proper payment later… … Don’t forget.”

Damian said, looking at the prince who couldn’t even answer. And.

“Diana, we’re going to pick up the pace now. So we can get ahead faster.”

“All right.”

At Damien’s command, Diana quickly started running ahead with the squad leaders who had been scouting together earlier.

We will soon arrive at the capital of the Spanish Kingdom.

‘Wait for the main force in front of the capital and join up… … .’

The capital of the Spanish Kingdom will become a battleground.

I don’t know what happened to the people inside.

‘I guess we have to assume they’re all dead.’

In that case, the troops currently being gathered would be all from the local areas.

Our forces number approximately 10,000.

I don’t know how many troops the Baroque Kingdom has left, but it’s probably around 20,000.

“30,000… … .”

I don’t know how many troops the empire has.

‘The scale of the first battle was enormous.’

Besides, aren’t the soldiers of the empire actually defending the capital of the Spanish Kingdom?

It will not be an easy battle. But… … .

Swish.

Damian looked at the prince sitting on his shoulder.

He was just like a child, holding onto his own neck and clinging to it tightly.

‘They must have used this prince to neutralize the Spanish Kingdom’s forces.’

Even if they had dispatched a large number of troops, they couldn’t have sent tens of thousands of them.

But the prince did not fall into the hands of the empire.

Perhaps, from the army’s point of view, saving the prince was a stroke of luck.

‘It’s a perfect fit from the first button.’

This war.

‘We take it.’

Damian, who had been looking ahead with cold eyes, smiled again as he looked at the Spanish prince.

Then he turned straight to his men and said:

“All hands, move.”

“yes!”

The Kion forces began to advance, thinking about the Imperial bastards they would soon meet.

* * *

Sragan, the capital of the Spanish Kingdom.

Sragan was literally a sea of ​​blood due to the tyranny of the empire.

“Kill them all! Kill them all and throw them out of the castle!”

“Kkaaaaaaah!”

“S-save me! Save me… … !”

Phew!

The imperial soldiers began to slaughter the kingdom’s citizens without hesitation and piled their corpses outside the castle for show.

Since even the royal family had already been killed, there was no reason to spare the kingdom’s citizens.

Roberta simply looked at the scene of the brutal massacre with a blank expression.

But then.

“Lady Roberta.”

“What’s going on?”

Roberta’s adjutant, Zimmern, approached him with an embarrassed expression.

Finally, he bowed his head and said.

“We’ve lost contact with the pursuit party. We seem to have lost the Prince… ….”

“……what?”

For a moment, a deep wrinkle formed between Roberta’s eyebrows.

He must have taken his time in pursuit, so how could he have missed the prince?

When Roberta frowned, Zimmern looked at him with a helpless expression.

“I should have heard by now that he’s coming back… … but I haven’t heard from him for the past two days.”

“… … What kind of variable has occurred?”

Roberta pursed her lips and exhaled through her nose.

Roberta, who seemed to be thinking about something, spoke to Zimmern.

“Just in case, wait and see. If we haven’t secured the prince, then the Spanish Kingdom’s army could run wild.”

The imperial army occupying Sraggan numbers just over 10,000 soldiers.

If we estimate the combined forces of the Baroque Kingdom and the Spanish Kingdom, it would be around 20,000 to 30,000.

Although they had the advantage of being on Mercury, they were too numerous to deal with.

‘Of course, Lady Piaren is here… … .’

However, we can only win this war with complete victory if we use the prince to neutralize the forces of the Spanish Kingdom.

Roberta clicked her tongue.

“… … Tsk!”

But soon he said to Zimmern.

“Spread the false rumor that we have captured the prince. If we hadn’t captured him, they wouldn’t have captured him either.”

Roberta had considerable confidence in the pursuit party she had sent.

Because each and every one of them was an exceptional elite.

Although, due to major variables, we may not have been able to bring the prince.

‘Then we can only assume that they either killed the prince… or that they escaped to a place where they cannot be caught.’

For example, jumping off a cliff or being swept away by the river current and carried away somewhere.

Then, of course, the Prince’s whereabouts will not be found in the Spanish Kingdom either.

In that situation, this false rumor could be enough to confuse them.

“Don’t tell Lord Piaren about this. He is a perfectionist, so you mustn’t let anything ruin his mood before a battle.”

“Okay, I understand. I will strictly enforce the rules.”

Roberta nodded at her subordinate’s words and looked forward.

The aura of the battlefield can be felt from far away.

The guys will be arriving any moment now.

Kook.

Roberta grabbed the sword she was holding.

‘30,000… …’

Hehehehehehehe.

Soon Roberta’s shoulders shook.

Although it was a considerable number of troops, Roberta’s heart was beating fast in the battlefield where such a large number of troops were deployed.

“The days of crows preying will continue.”

The Baroque kingdom that dared to raise a sword against them.

I will bring down the hammer on their foolishness.

“Come on in, you rascals.”

Roberta’s eyes, looking ahead, were burning like flames.
