Chapter 188: Consequence of Arrogance (3)

“You XXing bastards!”

“Fight us you sons of bitches!”

“You xxxX assholes! If I caught you, I'onna xxxX and kill you!”

“xxxXX…”

The Imperial soldiers’ eyes were bloodshot, not metaphorically, but for real Because they couldn’t sleep all night, their eyes were red like rabbits froht attack was extremely simple Archers on horseback would use the special crossbow and fire at them from a distance, and if it seemed like the Imperial soldiers would pursue, they would i

The problem was, no matter how simple it was, the Imperial Army hadn’t been prepared for it On top of that, when the Imperial soldiers appeared, the Republicans immediately hid in the fortress and the Imperial soldiers couldn’t recklessly pursue the at the watchtower of the fortress would fire at them

It was the perfect hit and run Even if they were continuously hit with the same attack, there was no way for the I hit even as they saw it co The soldiers of the Imperial Army weren’t able to sleep properly and suffered froo on the offensive!”

“If we continue like this, on’t even be able to fight properly and our soldiers will collapse from exhaustion, sir”

“We have to attack that mountain fortress while we still can, sir”

The officers who had suffered as much as the soldiers were furious

“All of you, be patient We don’t even have a way of attacking the ht now”

“Even if we for, sir We don’t even kno much food the enemy stockpiled”

“There has to be a limit to the food stockpiled in a fortress of that size Let’s continue to besiege them for at least 10 days and keep watch”

“If we keep laying siege to theuerrilla warfare for ten days, our soldiers will collapse first, sir Didn’t we go through it yesterday, sir?”

Duke Sebastian tried to calainst him Perhaps it was because of their lack of sleep, but they were arguing for attack much more than usual

At that moment, Marquis Catel stepped forward and spoke

“If the soldiers’ exhaustion is the problem, then there’s a solution”

“What do you mean there’s a solution?”

“We can divide the troops in half One group will create an encircleht and the other half will defend during the day”

“”

For a second, the officers’ all looked strange

‘Can we do that?’

‘That seems like it would work…’

‘Oh, that would work’

Their faces all seehed as he saw the officers’ expressions

“Although they attacked us all night long last night, in the end, they only continuously tried to lure us in That means the enemies are just as desperate Why have none of you realized this”

None of the officers were able to say anything Perhaps it was because of extreht their brains weren’t working properly

“At least ten days If possible, let’s lock in the enee of smooth delivery of supplies Is there any reason not to do this?”

Eventually, the officers had no choice but to accept Marquis Catel’s words Once the officers had finished shouting and stepped back, Duke Sebastian spoke to Marquis Catel

“I aize to you for”

“”

Marquis Catel gave hi to say Duke Sebastian must have found Marquis Catel’s silence uncouess ere at peace for too long I didn’t think the officers would show this kind of weakness in the face of the war’s variables”

“If all of the Iive serious consideration on leaving the Empire, sir”

Marquis Catel was annoyed by the fact that he now had to participate in a strategywhen he was, at the core, a take action military man There was a limit to what humans could do, but because of these incompetent officers, there hadn’t been tith in the war

“I’m sorry for that But not all the I to be like this, I would have brought hiuy As far as I know, the greatest tactician in the Ereenhorn who’s only read books and hasn't actually experienced war, sir?”

“No He’s different He has h experience After all, he’s not a person of the Ener”

“If there’s such a person, why didn’t you bring him, sir?”

“Because he’s not a person ould listen to my commands”

Marquis Catel frowned at those words

‘Who is it? There has to be less than ten people in the entire Empire ouldn’t listen to Duke Sebastian’

Marquis Catel decided to look into it further later

“The enean to forhed after he heard the report froht the officers with the brains of a goldfish would get so mad that they would attack us at least once”

Then, Siegfried asked Leader 2 as if he wassure

“How many days of food do we have left in the fortress?”

“About a week left, sir Maybe teeks if we ration it”

It was just as Marquis Catel predicted It was ie a such a special fortress

“There’s no need to save, so h”

“Yes, sir”
