Vol 4 Chapter 29 (2/2)
Theshowered with Sardina's sharp gaze
”I beg your pardon, your highness The enemy movement was too fast”
Thefor air, everyone could see an arrow stuck on his shoulder
Looking at his figure, s sounds leaked from Sardina's mouth
”Very well then Go instruct all units to calm the situation and prepare for a counterattack!”
Regardless of how much she wants to complain, it was the truth that her army suffered a surprise attack
(What the hell had happened I never thought they would make a move e're about to intensify our offensive)
Sardina, of course, ary of Zalda's counterattack, but she was ihts that were able to move like a thunder <tln: like=”” a=”” thunder,=”” fast=”” and=”” surprising=””>
”Your Highness ! Please wait a moment we have to move carefully here”
Saitou i a hasty decision
”Saitou, there's no time for us to slack If we talk about numbers, we're superior compared to them They
them They have finally co to do if we don't strike now ?!”
”But your highness, the Zalda's side that was only doing defensive battles finally took an offensive stance They ”
”That is right, the anize our troops”
Seria agreed to Saitou's words
Certainly, even if the eneroup, it was impossible for such an attack to continue
As the tiroup will be overwhelmed by Sardina's army
If that was the case, then one should think about Zalda’s true aim
Thinking of that, Sardina took a deep breath
(I need to cal to achieve by doing this?)
Rain of arrows co from the distance
It was certainly possible to reduce the opponent's numbers, but it could not be said as a decisive strike either
The first attack seeainst the opponent, but once they entered the battle e should've been reduced considerably
The moment the soldiers wear their helmet and hold their shi+elds, it should reduce the effectiveness of the attack
(If that is the case then, is this just a harassht ?)
Such attack was surely baffling to the opponent, but it was only that
Over tie to calm down
And in front of the Ortoained its composure, the enemy force of 2,500 troops was too small
”Is this a decoy?”
Hearing Saitou's words, Sardina knitted her eyebrows
”Which mean, they want us to focus on their attack from the front, and the enemy will take us from the side?”
Sardina as lost in thought glanced at Seria on her side
”No, that's probably not it Because this camp is surrounded by flat land, there is little possibility of that to happen”
”I guess you're right I don't think they will switch from defense to offense hastily”
”Of course, the possibility is low but”
Frodom's movements were fairly consistent
They performed defensive battles inside a fortress in the basin to reduces da fortresses in the mountain to their
es
For they, the chance was quite low
(So then Why now)
Every action always had a reason
How quickly one can realize the reason, usually determines the victor
And it was a report froer that makes Sardina realized the enemy's motive
”Report ! We've so out They are currently chasing the Zalda Kingdo directly towards the Ushi+as Fort !”
The moment she heard that report, Sardina immediately realized
Cold sweat runs down Sardina's back
(Luring Don't tell me, this is the reason ?)
That thought turned into conviction when soan to speak
”The situation has turned into an unfavorable development Saitou, you should head out and consolidate our troops iht have Rolf-dono here, but it would hness Sardina have a peace of uys run wild any more than this”
”Sudou-san What does that mean?”
Saitou who could not corasp the situation asked Sudou
However, Sardina immediately interrupts
”Saitou, I'm sorry but please head out immediately Do not let the soldiers to be lured in much deeper !”
The situation had becoainst time
They understand Rolf’s coh, but insurance was necessary for this situation
Just like Sudou had indicated, if the invading arht cause a fatal injury to their forces
Saitou stopped asking further questions after one look at Sardina's eyes, and he immediately leaves the tent
”Kukuku, finally the enemy makes their real move, Elena Steiner and Eclatia Marienel, is it ? It seems they understood our army quite well As expected from people who have abundant experience Now then, to what extent did they read our army preparations”
”Close your mouth Sudou!”
Towards Sardina's anger, Sudou replied with a sarcastic smile on his face
While staring at his attitude, Sardina sat down on her chair once again
”Ah, light God Meneoz, please bestow us your divine protection, so that those two could make it in time”
Words of prayer came out from Sardina's mouth
However, Seria as on her side could not understand the situation
”Your Highness Just what has happened?”
Looking at the praying Sardina who closed her eyes and clasped her hands,
Seria could not hide her surprised feelings
