Two days had passed since the battle match happened
Right now, there wereroom within the castle
”These are the conditions our country currently is in Today, I would like ladies and gentlemen here to discuss it and find a way to break our current situation”
A dom was spread on the desk
Grahart said those words while pointing his baton at pieces representing army units and forts on the map
”I would like everyone to help defend our country”
Sitting down next to Grahart, Julianus the First opened his mouth
What was happening right noas a military assembly of the three nations that occupied and dominated the eastern end of the western continent dubbed a joint war council
In addition to the Generals of the Zalda Kingdododom who dealt with diplomacy and finances were also present
For most of them, this was the first time they met each other
Inside the roo, Julianus the First
Up until now, only in a few occasions did Julianus the first showed up during war councils
With the king present, it also showed how dom was
With the king being present, the war council was full of heat fro
”No, I think we shouldthe coalition of armies to pressure the Ortomea Empire so that they back down!”
When a nobleht beside him snapped at his words
”What are you saying?! That's what Ortomea want us to do Their ai for the chance to crush our army and occupy the country!”
”Caldoainst Ortoora participate?”
”About that, since the outbreak of the war you've kept saying it, but even after a year had passed, they have not made any moves at all”
”But still, on't be able to hold the frontline by ourselves We need to drag Ernestgora by all means That's e should make more effort for that, don't you think so?”
”Are you stupid?! There's no reason for Ernestgora to help our country Don’t you knohat the Queen of that country is called?!”
”Agreed! She only er evasively so sheour country's land”
Regarding the proble difficulties regarding the supply lines since they were surrounded by eneeneration of the officials suggested that the alliance should continue defensive battles while waiting for an opening, on the other hand, the young generation had developed a self-theory that they should make a rally to keep the h
Everyone voiced their wisdoave their opinion
Meanwhile, four people Ryouathered in one of the corners of the rooaze
”Fuh, they are all vigorously trying to be a smartass huh? damn it, if we continue with this situation, we're already in a checks that are certainly obvious”
Hearing Ryouma mutters, Lione smiled bitterly
Although he was saying those words carefully in a low voice, it was still words that should not be spoken inside this war council
But still, the reason why Lione didn't rebuke Ryouma was clear
(Geez, boy, you're being too harsh But then again, it is the truth, so it can't be helped eh)
The contents of the hot debate that were currently being held in front of the the five people including Sakuya as not currently in this place
That hy, Ryouument that happened in front of them was just a mere farce -
In the first place, the Zalda Kingdom national poas less than a third of the Ortomea Empire
It finally had enough power to equal Ortomea Empire after the three eastern countries united their forces
However, Rozeria was exhausted due to the civil war, and the Zalda Kingdo the early invasion on the Notiz plains
(If we stay like this The fate of this country has already been sealed)
Ryouma didn't felt shaken with his own assessment of the current situation
He had the will to face the disadvantaged that appeared in front of him
Lione understood that possessing such as one of the characteristics of Mikoshi+ba Ryou despite all of the predicaments
”The situation was already to the point that the front line was pushed near the capital’s suburb As it is, the north and south of the national lands would be both cut off from the capital, if that happened, they would be defeated individually Thus this country would meet its end”
The Zalda Kingdo from north and south
The capital city Periveria was located in the center, and also closer to the eastern border
The frontline was a mountainous area three days walk on foot from the capital
The arthe frontline in check at this very moment
However, speaking frankly, the invasion of the Ortomea Empire had advanced little by little every day
Thus, it was necessary to reinforce him as soon as possible
”Well, it is impossible to turn around the current situation here sihtforwardly to do so after all Or at least, I have no intention of doing so”
Lione shook her head with a bitter smile
