Volume 2 Chapter 19 (2/2)
It would be pointless if they are unable to catch the opportunity they had aimed for
But Ryouma is already aware of that and came up with the countermeasures
”It would certainly be impossible if ere to move the whole army However, as a small number, let’s say, 2000 cavalry unit and mercenaries should be able to make it ”
The reason why Earl Zerev said it would take seven days is because he had also included the foot soldiers
If we let the nore the rest tiic, we can cut a considerable amount of time
And of course, because there are no foot soldiers, thespeed would be faster
”But, let us assued to cross over Thaves River with the 2000 troops, what are you going to do next? The enemy has more than 60000 soldiers you know? Won't 2000 soldiers end up useless?”
Meltina is worried regarding the time after he had crossed the river
Certainly, 2000 cavalry would be able to reach the Thaves River within three days
However, after he crossed the river, he will have to face the enemy’s soldiers immediately
She could only see this as a suicidal action
”I've already thought about that Of course, it would be iainst 60000 men with only 2000 men But remember, it’d require around seven days for the whole arht after the cavalry ht? I think 2000 soldiers can hold on for a few days ”
Everyone who heard Ryouma tilted their head
Ryou 30 tier in numbers
The people within the ree on that so easily
”You have some sort of plan?”
Ryouma nodded his head toward Princess Lupis' question
He does not believe that they can win if they were to fight head to head
But at the saive up on this opportunity either
If they miss this opportunity here, a cooperative relationshi+p could be established between Duke Gerhardt and General Hodram
Even if it sounds unreasonable, this is definitely a good time for them to attack
Silence ruled over theroom
All the gazes of the people within theroom are directed at Princess Lupis
Because her decision will decide everything
(Could he really achieve the impossible? No, rather, will those 2000 soldiers be able to defend against 60000 soldiers?)
Princess Lupis ponders about Ryouestion
She understands that her decision will determine the country's future
At last, it was Elena who broke the long silence
”I think we should go along with his plan, the situation won't iree that this is a good time for us to make our move ”
”Elena I understand I will leave 2000 soldiers under your coroup Defend yourselves until the main force arrives by all means!”
After listening to Elena's advice, Princess Lupis finally made her decision
”Understood Please leave it to me ”
Hearing those words, Ryouma lowered his head
-------------------------------------------
”Geez! You really have soerous bridge deliberately ”
Having said that, a smile appears on Lione’s face
There was no malice in her words
After Princess Lupis had decided the advance party, Ryouathered in a room
Although Mikhail and the Marfisto sisters are not with theht now, they also part of the advance party
”Well, it's better to attack the attacked after all ”
”Elena-saood time for us to attack”
Listening to Ryoureement
For people who have a lot of experience like hi
”But still, young ainst 60000 soldiers with only 2000 troops?”
Bolt asked modestly
Although holding utmost respect towards Ryou anyone blindly
It is nor 60000 soldiers with only 2000 soldiers
It is completely sensible for someone to want to kno to achieve all of that
”Well, all of this will depends on Bolts-san and the other's ability I've requested several tasks to the two of you, and well, it would depend on the results of those ”
”Eh!? That? Indeed that thing is aainst 60000?” Bolt uttered those words in astonishment
”Oh, rest assured, after all, we had practiced as the boy had ordered!”
Bolts showed a complicated expression while Lione showed a relaxed expression
”The newly hired people are also keeping up fine right?”
”Yes Everyone was confused at the beginning, but since I have properly trained the should be fine! ”
Lione puffed her chest with pride toward Ryouma's question
Ryoue for the mercenaries in this world, but Lione was able to fulfill them properly
”If that's true then good work, Lione-san ”
After hearing Ryouma and Lione’s discussion, a smile returned to Bolts' face
”Further as well ”
”Hmm? What is that?”
”Well, you will knoe fight the defensive battle”
Hearing Ryouma's words, Lione looked around
”Fhun, now that you mentioned it, they are not here? ”
”Yes It would be bad if the forht after all”
”I see Well, I will bet my trust on you, boy Make sure you don’t disappoint me~ ”
Lione’s tone of voice sounded like she was joking, but her eyes were dead serious
Despite being a s out for the safety of her members
”Well, I guarantee you won't be disappointed ”
Ryoued his shoulders and answered her
Ryouma is a man, not a GodThere is no way for him to be able to say that he’d definitely win Thus, he can only do his best
”Alright, let's move out!”
””Depart!””
Following Ryouma's words, the squad leaders advance their troops
On Ryouma's sides, the Marfisto sisters rode their horses in parallel
”Ryoued the direction as instructed ”
”Good work ”
Toward Laura's report, Ryouma nodded his head
”Also, about the other instruction that Ryouave me, I've found them ”
Listening to Sara's report, Ryouma narrowed his eyes
”Is it a the mercenaries?”
”That's right I found it a the newcomer mercenaries that we have hired ”
”I see Keep your eyes open, alright?”
”Yes I will do my best ”
”Do you kno many of them?”
Sara shook her head toward Ryouma's question
”I see, well, it's fine Leave it be for now Eventually, I will be able to make use of it ”
”Understood ”
After nodding her head, Sara advanced her horse toward the roup
”Ryouma-sama Shouldn’t we deal with the earlier matter first?”
”No, the more cards you have on your hands, the better Besides, even if ere to get rid of it right away, there would be another one co up ”
In response to Laura's question, Ryouma's eyes become narrow and sharp
Just like a hawk looking at its prey
