Isekai Tensei no Boukensha - 287 Chapter 19-12 Back Gauge

“Temma, according to the report of the person who just returned from scouting, a swarm of zombies has begun to move.” However, as before, instead of aiming for the King’s City in a straight line, everything was divided into the largest flock and some small and medium-sized flocks, and progressed in a horizontal spread. ”

Has this information been delivered to the king or Lyle?

“No, not yet. The Southern Viscount family is not yet officially in the fight.” Therefore, we have been instructed by Hana to first report to the Otori family and move in accordance with Temma-san’s instructions. ”

“Well then, please report to the Royal Castle as soon as possible.” At that time, raise the flag of the Otori family with the flag of the Southern Viscount House and tell the gatekeeper to call the butler, Clif, or the maid Aina. If you tell either of them why you came to the Royal Castle, they will report to the King or Lord Lyle immediately. ”

Leni and his southern counterparts are in the custody of the House of Otori, but it is only natural that they should be responsible for this, since they have recommended that we lend them a piece of the House of Oori. Besides, as a Southern Viscount family, I want to avoid being used to keep Leni and the others besides me, or being taken away with the southern grip. That’s why, instead of letting House Otori know what Leni and the others have learned first, we’re going to keep the agents safe until the Southern Viscount Army is ready.

Even if Leni and the others go to the Imperial Castle to inform them of the situation, it is highly likely that they will eat the front door or take the information with them to someone else. In order to prevent that from happening, we need to hold the banner of the Otori family, and ask Clif or Aina to report directly to the kings, who are familiar with Leni.

There is also a way for me to take it with me or follow Leni and the others, but even if it is temporary, it may become the property of the Otori family to which I belong, so it is better for Leni and the others to go alone in order to strengthen the impression of the Southern Viscount House.

“At the same time, as the representative of the Southern Viscount Family, please remember the name of Amur.”

Roger that!

Although Amur does not work for the Southern Viscount family at all, he is the only Viscount family member in the southern part of the capital, so if you put his name on it, the impression of the Southern Viscount family will be even stronger. However, he would hate to be troublesome, but Hana would definitely agree, so let’s say that Amur has no right of veto.

After Leni and his men headed for the Royal Castle, I immediately gathered my grandfathers and started a discussion. Uncle Mark is among the conversation members.

“In other words, if a herd of zombies advances as reported by agents in the south, the capital could be surrounded in all directions.”

Maybe. However, no matter how many zombies there are, I don’t think it will be possible to completely encircle the King’s City, so I’ll concentrate most of my herd on the east side and feel like small to medium-sized herds are coming from other directions.

We could easily handle Albert’s guards on a small scale, and we could handle him on a medium scale. However, even if all the attacking herds were small, if they attacked several places at the same time, it would be impossible for the Guard to deal with them alone, so it would be necessary to divide the number of people from other units. This report would be unwelcome information for the Kingdom, as it would reduce the number of troops prepared for the largest horde that would be attacking from the east.

If this were to happen, perhaps we should have invaded from the Kingdom’s side.

I’m sure it was difficult to make a decision because reformers will be happy this time.

That’s right. However, if we attacked the frontier territory, we could count on the forces of the frontier army, the duke army, etc., so we might have been able to fight more than each other.

“Temma, it’s no use talking about this now.”

However, I derailed from the talk about the movement of the zombie herd and the strategy adopted by the Kingdom, but I quickly returned to the original story with the Tsukkumi, which is a natural part of Amur.

“So, this is the policy of the Otori family, but first I think my grandfather and I will wait close to the front line to prepare for Rich.” While my grandfather and I were gone, Primera was in charge of the Ottori family, assisted by Jeanne and Uncle Mark. In particular, my uncle wants me to do something related to the people of Kukuli Village, so please work with Aunt Martha to bring the people together. ”

“Eh!?”

“Oh! Leave it to me!”

Jeanne looks worried, but she has already packed up her luggage and food so that it’s easy to take them out, so you just have to remember about Zhu Bei and the others when you actually escape. When I told Jeanne about it, she seemed a little less anxious.

With regard to my uncle, I have experience when the village of Kukri was attacked by zombies, and at present, it is like the representatives of the people of the village of Kukuri living in the capital city, so it is not very different from my current position, and there will be no particular problem with my aunt’s help.

Temma, what’s my role?

“Amur thinks the Viscount of the South will move to King’s Landing, so you can help Jeanne and the others move around at any time.”

Amur is a top-notch fighter among southern officials in the capital, and is also a blood relative of the precious Southern Viscount family, so perhaps Hannah is thinking of a role. Therefore, as a family of wolves, you can’t be in charge of anything.

“In other words, although there are conditions, Amur is the (…) commander of the Rangers.”

I see!

The moment I said that my affiliation might move, it was Amur with a very unpleasant face, but my grandfather was in a good mood when he immediately followed me. Well, it sounds good when it comes to the Rangers, but for now (because of grandpa’s first thought) there’s only Amur, so it’s unclear when there will be more of them under your command… Maybe some helpers will come from the Viscount of the South, so you’ll be in a position to bring them together.

“So, in the worst case scenario, escaping from the royal capital won’t change, but I think we should change the first candidate for escape route from the south to the west.” According to Leni’s report, the zombie herd is spreading across the side, so after escaping from the capital, it is more likely that the zombie herd will surround us. Perhaps the soldiers will be unable to pass the entrance on the south side. ”

Temma-san, in that case, isn’t it the same way that the west is consolidating the entrances and exits?

In Primera’s opinion, the grandfathers also nodded,

“There are many reformist territories in the west of the kingdom, right? That said, the soldiers gathered in the West are very likely reformers. Reformed nobles, if anything were to happen in the capital, they would be able to rebuild themselves if they fled to the west.”

“I see… if anyone escapes from the West, it is the nobility and soldiers of the Reformists. If the nobility abandoned the royal capital… no, if they escaped, it is like abandoning the position of the nobility of the Kingdom.” I mean, a traitor can be judged to be a hostile force, to put it more simply. If that’s what you said, there’s no problem even if you kick it off. ”

“It might be a problem, but the kingdom won’t be able to afford to take care of it, and if anything happens that you have to escape from the Dao King’s capital, you will be hostile to the Reformers.” Since the only [opponent with a very high likelihood of becoming an enemy] is the [enemy], we should improve our own chances of survival, right? ”

Well, that’s right.

Neither I nor my grandfather… said that the Otori family basically hates reformists, so I had no objection to kicking them apart when I had to.

“So, if the opponent was a reformist, that’s fine… the worst case is if the opponent was a” Royalist “or” Neutral “.” If you’re an aristocrat you know, you’ll be able to handle the conversation, but you’re unlikely to say that you happen to have an aristocrat you know where the Reformers are going to take it seriously. ”

“Besides, most of the aristocrats with the Otori family are royalty and neutrals, and I think they will be more importantly placed because they will be trustworthy from the royal family. I think it would be better to think of it as nothing (…) rather than low.”

“If that happens, you might not be able to honestly let me go through with the discussion…..”

The fact that the people of the Otori family are leaving the King’s City means that I and my grandfather are likely to retreat from the front line, so if we don’t get the Primeras out of the King’s City, you may think that I and my grandfather will fight in the meantime, or you may think that you can let them escape because you can’t make a decision on your own, and you may think that we will keep them until you give us instructions.

“If that happens, we’ll have to break through by force!” House Otori is not a nobleman in the first place, so we don’t need royal or noble permission to run!…… should be. ”

“Well, Amur is right.” It would be a request from the royal family to join the battle, but in reality, it seems like cooperation is based on goodwill, so even if you make a contract, only me and Temma would be on the front line. However, if you show a gesture of taking our family and related people hostage, you won’t be able to complain even if you break the contract on the spot and be turned around by your enemies. ”

“I think that’s fine with me, but when I formally contract with the royal family, it’s up to Temma and his uncle to fight, and I think it’s better to clearly state that the Otori family and their associates will go around to support them. That way, we can claim that our retreat from King’s Landing is a plan for the two men on the front lines to fight without fear, so we may be able to avoid forced breakthroughs.”

It was decided to deal with the nobles who might be consolidating the entrance and exit, and later we discussed the escape route and the rendezvous point with me and Grandpa… but we couldn’t decide much more.

First of all, the route at the time of the escape, this depends on the number of passages in the capital and the state of war at that time, and since the capital has never been in crisis so far since the founding of the country, there is little information to refer to, so it was only possible to determine the priority of the escape direction.

Similarly, with regard to the rendezvous point after the escape, since there are many reformist territories in the west that seem to be safe in the direction of the escape, it is not possible to stay in the same place for a long time. Besides, it is unknown when I and Grandpa will leave the King’s City, so in the end, I decided roughly on the passage for Primera to go, and I and Grandpa will fly and chase it later.

However, it may not be possible to rendezvous to Nanao in the south, which is the destination, but it was the opinion of everyone except me that it would be less dangerous for Primera and the others to advance to Nanao than to slow down or stop poorly.

“Temma is worrisome.” But there are Marthas to take care of Primera, and there are Surarins on the battlefield. Best of all, there are over a thousand golems, plus a few out of standard golems. Whether a bunch of nobles is a bunch or not, it’s not the number of things. ”

Even if you encounter thousands of enemies, if the usual golems fall into the Wall and defend the Primers, and if the Thrallins and Parsival’s off-standard golems (including Scorpion Golems) fight in the meantime, a thousand or two thousand won’t be an enemy, and perhaps ten thousand won will be a good match.

“Best of all, golems can become walls as they move.” It’s not just about being stopped and scraped. Besides, the attackers should retreat if they know it’s going to take a while. Anyway, the longer it takes, the more likely it is that Tema and I or the Southern Viscount Army will intervene. ”

“Hmm, if you share your path with your mother through Renitan, the South will definitely come to your aid, even if it’s impossible.” Because… I can sell my gratitude to Temma! ”

It seemed that there was no other way to say it, but it was more convincing than that, so I agreed with everyone.

“Then, shall we leave it at that for today?” Next, let’s talk again with Leni. ”

If we’re going to let Hana know about the escape route, we need Leni’s help. Besides, Leni may know the safe routes used by agents in the South (including in the King’s city), and he has the highest level of knowledge and ability to escape and escape among my acquaintances. To be honest, I know someone who seems to be better than Leni… but since she’s not nearby or difficult to consult, Leni is the most suitable person in many ways.

That said, everyone agreed, and today’s discussion was dissolved.

Uncle Mark left the Mansion in a hurry to tell the others what we discussed today, but we didn’t have any urgent business, so we decided to run an escape simulation together. At this time, Primera’s active experience was useful.

Primera… or Gunjo City is not caught in the crossfire, but we may train for siege and castle battles just in case, and even other Knights will not significantly change the content, so we decided to devise a plan based on that knowledge…..

“After all, if you put a scorpion-type golem in front of you when it’s dangerous, most things will be solved.”

It was concluded that

It is a scorpion-type golem with little chance of using it, but it does not have a handle, but it has been regularly tested for movement and improved. As a result of adding as many hands as possible so that it is not manipulated as a rich countermeasure this time, it exceeds the Minotaur-type golem in terms of speed and small turns, but it is inferior to the Knight-type golem, and the intensity of the blow is higher than the Knight-type of those below the Minotaur-type. In other words, it was halfway between the Cavalier and Minotaur shapes. And there are other things that are noteworthy.

Even though it’s improved, it won’t cost more than the Cavalier or Minotaur models.

Since it is not made with the intention of making fine movements like a knight type, it is made with a large number of joints, and because it is not made to walk on two legs despite a giant body like a minotaur type, it is possible to increase the number of feet if the body cannot be supported or if it is likely to be crushed by weight.

If the Cavalier and Scorpion battles, they might beat the Cavalier with less evasiveness and attacking methods, but they’re likely to beat the Minotaur.

The basic method of attack is swinging the scissors and tail, so it is likely to be missed by the Cavalier Golem, but it seems easy to break the balance and push down before the slow-moving Minotaur attack, so the overall strength will come next to the Cavalier.

Besides, if you’re fighting against a swarm of humans and human monsters, you’ll be more effective than a knight.

The Knight type has a high attack power, but that includes handling weapons, so the scorpion type, which can be a hit-and-kill just by poking into it, is probably too good a golem for a personal weapon.

“Yes, I think so. So, even if they get in the way during an escape, if you put the scorpion at the head, I think the other person will be honest and clear the way. If it doesn’t pull back, you just have to let it go.”

Certainly, Primera is right, the opponent who is hardened in a narrow place like the entrance will be a prey for the scorpion-type golem. Well, the impact could break the walls at the entrance, but at that time, all I had to do was put out a minotaur and make a passage.

“Likewise, even if you’re surrounded by reformist noble armies on the move, if you let ordinary golems penetrate the scorpion, they will escape by raising their value first. Moreover, if you let scorpions and knights rage against the golems on the walls in that state, the enemy will not even be able to choose between them, so I think they will escape or surrender faster. Well, if you choose to surrender instead of escape, I don’t think you need to take the extra time to attack without admitting it.”

It may be said that it is inhumane to unilaterally attack an opponent who has lost their will to fight, but it may be a plan to use it as a shield to stop the Primers, and it is not a rule-based fight in the first place, and we are on the run, and if we lose, we could lose all of our lives. Primera insisted that if he did not want to cause harm, he should not deal with the Otori family in such a situation from the beginning. And that argument was something everyone here would agree with.

“Well then, when the battle begins, let’s adopt Primera’s plan.” Jeanne, Aura, and Scorpion remain in the same ownership, but follow Primera’s instructions on when and for what purpose to use them. ”

Yes!

Roger that!

Since the scorpion type was what I gave them, I didn’t tell Primera to transfer ownership, but instead, I told them to absolutely follow Primera’s instructions. However, because they are the maids (slaves) of the Otori family, they have no right or choice to disobey or refuse Primera’s orders from the beginning, but at the same time, Primera is not allowed to take up what I gave them, so I decided that Primera’s orders are absolutely necessary for use.

“In the Otori family, Primera is completely out of command in group battles… or there’s nothing else I can do but Primera.” Even if I and Temma meet up, I might as well leave the instructions to the golems and Marks to Primera. ”

I think a small number of commanders would be enough for me and my grandfather, but I’ve never commanded a hundred units, including a golem, so even if we meet, the Commander would be better off as a Primera. However, sometimes it’s a baby on the stomach, so in the worst case scenario, Thalarin will be in charge of the golems, and the people of Kukuli village will ask Uncle Mark to do it.

“If this were to happen, I should have made a multi-legged golem like a scorpion… someone who used the magic core of the Earth Dragon.”

The Dinobot’s Magic Core could make a golem stronger than the Scorpion. Well, it was possible that the will of the Dinobot could be inhabited, but it was fine like a knight… No, it could be inhabited by a demonic Rakshasa, but in the unlikely event, I could only destroy it with all my might. Perhaps, even if I had the will of the Dinobot, I might have heard what Ryden had to say.

That’s what I would normally disagree with.

“Sure enough, if you succeed, you’ll have a lot of power boost.” It’s a shame. ”

“Yes, there will be a lot of problems, but it would be a pity to say that just by mimicking the shape of a dragon, you can put a lot of pressure on it.”

“Even though the temma was unusual, I couldn’t believe that it was behind my eyes…”

On the contrary, words of regret came out of Grandpa, Primera, and Amur.
