2218 On the eve of the war, Dodo and Katra ③ ~

This time, Dodo grabbed his shoulder like he was stopping Katra.

"Katra, don't make fun of me."You have a bad habit, don't you?

"Oh no, when I see a cute girl, I'm stuck."

Even the technique of putting your hand on your mouth is confusing.Thinking that he was going to manage to stay next to him, Alphilees hid behind the line.

"Why are you using me as a shield?"

You're good at this, aren't you?

"What are you talking about?"

The line was dazzled as she blew her head.Then, when I saw that Blaugard was about to go, I called out.

It was quite a pleasant greeting, but did you know each other by now?

Well, it looks like we can do this well.

"Same to the right."

Sure.

Blougard gazed at Anne-Crosse.

“I'll explain the approximate behavior going forward.The Müller Iron and Steel and Friedelinde corps move under the command of Brother Blaugard, while Jaeger moves under my command.The total number of armies that have incorporated mercenaries is 30,000 on the ground, 20,000 on mercenaries, 2000 on flying dragons, and 500 on Tenma. "

"Ah, just one more thing." I have been appointed as the commander of this confederate army, so please take care of it. "

Alfilise broke Anneclose's hips, but suddenly Anneclose and the others had their eyes open.

And a few moments later, Anneclose tortured Alphilees in a frustrated manner.

... I didn't hear you say that.

"I mean, it was decided just now." You know the Commander-in-Chief of the Confederate Army is King Dryan, right?I was appointed by him. "

What he did to the appointee is silent, Alphilees.Neither Lisa nor Lin naturally caught a glimpse.

Anneclose looked at Blaugard like he was in trouble, but he asked Alphileys a faint question without changing his expression.

“So, you're in a position to give us directions?”

No, King Dryan said that instead of trying to force a tactic, we should fight in a way that is characteristic of each country.

What do you mean?

Determine the stage of responsibility and conquer it in your own way.

“I see. So how do we work together?”

"I'll put my troops on the First Officer's line and put them on the Romansland side."I will command near King Dryan. "

The answer was often examined by Blaugard, but he nodded slowly.

... well, that makes sense. Fine.It looks like we need to decide where the lords will be headed once they meet.Where is the rendezvous? "

"In the plains in front of the frontline fort Kastrada, which passed through the Northern Commercial Union.I hear the Black Hawk and Karatzel Cavalry are sweeping the area.Isn't Romansland in the area? "

“I know it well. All right, let's just wait there.Then we don't need to stay here long, we'll rethink our strategy.Anne, Dodo, Katra. Let's go. ”

Blougard is quick to act. Dodo scratched his white teeth, Katya winked and left the scene, and Anneclose left the scene with a bit of remorse.

After they left, Rhine looked back at Alpha Reese's face, and it turned out that the look on her face just now seemed to be a lie, and she wasn't really upset.

"... what was the act just now?

"No, it's true that Katra was too beautiful to be upset."Half of it worked so well that I couldn't bear to laugh without thinking about it. "

"You have a bad face."What went well? ”

"Katra promised me that I would play."

Lisa and Rhine unexpectedly looked at each other.

"Alfi, you're not..."

"No, no, I was thinking about the heavy squad on the battlefield."There was a little bit of that talk in the last battle, and in the long battle... you'll need it, like a whore.I have no idea. "

"Oh, I think you should stay."

Line feels relieved when Alpha Leith talks with cold eyes.Because I thought that if I seemed to be upset and pushing here, it would develop into a troublesome thing later.

Lisa clenched her hand and was convinced.

“Oh, is that what you were asking Formine to do?”

"Yes. I had to have the Whorehouse Guild in Taram spy on me and borrow hundreds of good looking women to serve and back me up."However, there are not many people who can follow me to the front line, so when I was in trouble, I got a story from the other side.I was going to ask Friedelinde anyway, so I went on a boat. "

"What would you have done if Friedelinde hadn't helped you... oh, so..."

I remembered that Lisa had been ordered by Alpha Reese some time ago.New entrants are pre-screened in advance.What Alpha Reese particularly looked into was whether she had a criminal record or whether she had earned money by throwing herself in pain.I heard about the female mercenaries in particular.

I'm not on the guild's front page, but if you ask the guild for a financially painful female mercenary, you may be able to mediate in such an act.And the guild knows a little bit about mercenaries who can do that.

Lisa was asking Lisa to investigate if she had a history of saying that about a new joiner.

"Did you use it for this selection?" Why did you do that? "

That 's--

"It's also my suggestion."The next battle could be pretty miserable. "

Rhine spoke to cover for Alpha Reese.Lisa asks a little surprisedly.

"Let's hear some excuses."

"This expedition will eventually be narrowed down to about 5,000 people."There are two selection criteria. Perseverance and readiness or reason to risk your life as an admirer or mercenary of Jaeger. ”

What is patience?

I wonder if I can do the castle battle.

"... I see. The latter, then."

"There is no place to go but Jaeger."For example, someone who is married to a resident of Jaeger or Arnelia, or someone who is intoxicated by me, Alphilees, or other executives.I want to put in at least 40% of those people.Then we will reduce the chance of betrayal and escape to the very end. "

It seemed that the explanation of the line was satisfactory, but Lisa, who could not make a judgment, roared small.The line that saw it went on.

"Although few mercenaries in Jaeger have any experience in castle battles, they are miserable."The resupply battle is good, but the lead is always in the right hands.I don't know when it will be attacked, whether it will come from the underground, or whether it will come in a night attack. Every day, my spirit is gradually cut off.It was even more miserable to fight a castle battle in isolation, and even to fight hunger.In Alexandria, even the soldiers who fought to protect the country went crazy in the long battle of Castle. ”

"You think it's the whore who solves it?"

"Not only that, but it is one proposal.Alcohol and gambling are fine, but there are many people who say that women's skin is more calm.Even Diole had a long expedition in mind.This also means protecting our fellow knights. "

Nearly 30% of Jaeger was a female mercenary.I think it is certainly a thought worthy of consideration.The line lowers the tone of its voice.

"And one last thing." Sometimes there were people who said that they didn't need women, booze, or play on the battlefield.Be careful who you say that to. "

Why?

"Fighting is a means, not an end."But anyone who fights for his own cause can endure any tough battle.It must be reliable on the battlefield.But once you leave the battlefield - especially when it's peaceful - you can only spread the poison.Surely, it disturbs the peace. There are people who make that kind of change in war.I don't want my people to do that. "

"I see, I'm convinced." Alpha Leith, just one last thing.Thinking about the time when Friedelinde was no good, you chose your people, right? ”

After putting a few moments on Lisa's question, Alpha Reese answered.The light in his eyes was dark and cloudy, and the closest unexpectedly shuddered.

"Of course. It's best not to make cruel decisions, but sometimes you have to. If you kill one and the nine help, I won't hesitate to take that option."Worst of all, I was going to let Rosetta do the job. Do you despise me? "

"No, on the contrary, I was relieved."Your head will be much better than a flower patch. ”

"Is that all you want to hear?"

Yeah.

"Then we'll have a little meeting before we go to bed."I'll be back in Taram first thing in the morning, so go to bed early, too. "

Rhine and Alfilise left the room as they discussed it.Lisa makes her taller as she sees the closest she's left trembling.

"Are you scared, Alfi?"

"... oh, to be honest, I was scared. But that's the kind of commander who leads an army."

“Not everyone will, but you may have to make that decision.Alfi turns his head, so he must be imagining all kinds of cruelty.You're probably thinking about me dying or you dying. ”

”Lana said.Recently, my dreams seem to be getting worse again.Alfi seems to be having a sleepless night. "

“That's why we're here.Let's lighten her burden.Everyone around Alfi is going to do it now.I hope Alfi doesn't forget that. ”

"I see, I see..."

Unsubstantiated anxiety remains in Close's chest, but I don't think Alphilees' anxiety is in that ratio.Closese and Lisa thought it would be nice if she could have a restful night's sleep soon.
