Common Sense of a Duke’s Daughter - Chapter 229

The Fall … A few days have passed since Dida left the mansion. “He should have reached the east… not?” While processing documents, I muttered. …… It would be nice if my warning bell is only an unfounded fear. While I thought about such a thing, a knocking sound was coming from the door and Tanya came in. “I am sorry, Milady, I have something to report.” “Oh, did you receive a report from Dida?” At my words, Tanya shook her head with a stiff face. “No … but it is a big deal” I couldn’t imagine what big deal she would be talking about. “… What big deal could we have at this time?” “The defense front in Count Monroe territory collapsed… The enemies have entered… No, the barrier may have already been broken down from before the war started.” To Tanya’s words, I paled up for a moment. I needed a little time to understand her words because of the confusion. By understanding, I breathe out and calm my feelings. “… Are you sure?” “It is a report from one of our intelligence agents who had been sneaking into the Count Monroe residence, considering the time until the report has arrived here, the enemies have already entered and must be heading towards here…” “Please tell me in detail, what kind of circumstances produced that outcome?” How is grandfather’s army? The second team has arrived to support them? “ “For now, the master …… No, the death’s notice of General Gazelle has not come, but rather the troops of General Gazelle have double the fighting power with a smaller number than that of the enemies and their private soldiers. As a result, the second team was sent to support County Monroe’s territory border that was being pressed …. “ “So, how many soldiers did the enemy sent to the border with Count Monroe?” “Well, the majority of their private soldiers.. and also, a lot of regular soldiers … …” “It is true that many of those that are attacking the Count border, are prepared soldiers? … Maybe they predicted that grandfathers would be their opponent at the front? So they thought a strategy to break from the laterals? If they predicted that grandfather would be where the war opened, then they threw a lot of militia to the borders and distributed the main force to entertain my grandfather so he could not move… “ As I organize my thoughts, I decide what course to follow from now on. “So, they began attacking the territory of Count Monroe while grandfather was fighting at the front, and they even sent all regular soldiers to break the border…. But wait for a moment. I still can’t understand how could they break the border. What about the quantity of enemies respect the second team and Count Monroe soldiers?, The second team are elite soldiers and should not be some small numbers right? Why was the border so easily broken? “ “…… The people from Count Monroe territory joined the enemy” “What!!!!!?” I screamed at that statement. I couldn’t control my emotions. Don……! And the sound of a hit on the desk sounded. However, as I watched her calm down, I gradually calmed down my emotions. Even though I mistakenly showed such an emotional appearance, she didn’t show any emotion…
