Yamato Empire Chronicle – TS Girl, Conquering the Fantasy World With the Strongest Modern Nation Made in a Game - Chapter 32

Chapter 32: The Battle of Lycanvania Part 1

The Battle of Tigervania, where 100,000 Beastvania soldiers were annihilated.

King Lycan II fled for his life from the battlefield to the royal capital, Lycanvania.

However, he is now faced with a new threat.

“Your Majesty! We have received word that the enemy fleet is advancing toward the royal capital!”

“What do you mean!”

The Royal Castle of Lycanvania.

Sitting on the throne, he stood up in surprise at the report from Sir Bear, the Minister of Military Affairs.

“W-when will they arrive!”

“According to the report, by tomorrow…”

Naturally, this information was obtained by the Yamato Empire using its Half-Beastkin Intelligence Division.

Normally, there was no way for Beastvania to know the movements of the Yamato Imperial Fleet, which was moving around the ocean at high speed.

“Damn it! That damned furless ape! Sir Bear, we can’t afford to lose the Royal Capital!”

“I know, kuma! I will order our navy to sail, kuma!”

“Good, then the commander is…”

As he was speaking, Lycan II’s mind flashed with a certain scene.

That was the action shown by the protected cruiser Chiyoda when he killed the ambassador of the Yamato Empire some time ago. When he killed the ambassador, they break out in a cold sweat and ran away with their tails between their legs…

“Come to think of it, those bastards had big ships, but they got scared and ran away… Maybe they’re strong in a land battle, but not so much in naval battles?”

Lycan II ponders for a moment.

There is also the fact that the ‘King’s Authority’ has been tarnished by the heavy defeat in the Battle of Tigervania.

Beastvania Beastkin Nation is a union of a number of Beastkin tribes. The various lords in the country already exclaimed, “Can we continue to follow the lion tribe?” Some express anxiety about the situation.

If Lycan II, the chief of the Lion tribe, becomes unfit to be king, then… You don’t have to tell me where it goes from there.

At this rate, his position as king will be in danger.

He needs to win one major victory to show the lords of the country the might of Lycan II.

Indeed, the forces of the Yamato Imperial Army are powerful. We would lose nine times out of ten if we tried to fight them.

Lycan II understands this firsthand from that battle. After all, 100,000 soldiers were defeated without being able to do anything about it.

But a victory over the oncoming enemy fleet would allow us to defend Royal Capital and gain even more advantages.

Besides, it is not 100 percent certain that we are going to lose. The day they killed the ambassador of the Yamato Empire, didn’t the Yamato warship escape.

They won’t run away if they are absolutely sure they can win.

“…I will lead the fleet myself. Sir Bear, you’ll be staying this time.”

“Understood, kuma!  I wish you good luck, kuma!”

Thus Lycan II departs for the sea. To lead the fleet.

Meanwhile, his son Leon watched the King’s back anxiously.

The next day.

A few kilometers off the coast of the Royal Capital of Lycanvania.

Lycan II was sailing on the calm Balkan Sea aboard the “Mighty Lycan II” the flagship of the Beastvania naval fleet.

“Mighty Lycan II” is a large galley ship of 40 meters in length and 100 tons in displacement, a type of vessel also known as a Quinquereme1.

With a maximum crew of 400, it is the largest ship in Beastvania’s history.

Bearing the name of the King, Lycan II, it is the pride of the Beastvania naval fleet.

……That said, it is still just a wooden galley. In comparison to the largest ship in the Yamato Empire, the dreadnought battleship Fuji, it is like a small boat.

There are also 22 galley ships guarding the perimeter of the “Mighty Lycan II”. With a displacement of about 50 tons and a crew of about 200. That should be about half the size of the flagship.

Neither of them has any specific armaments, and the main combat is either an assault by the ramming horns or a boarding combat by the crew.

The throne on the deck of the flagship “Mighty Lycan II”. On that throne, “Gruaargh…”

There was the figure of Lycan II who could only weakly nod his head.

“Your Majesty, do you feel seasick?”

“Gruuu… Do you think this Lycan II is a pathetic man who gets seasick? Lord Navy.”

“No, nothing like that.”

The hippo beastkin Sir Cavaar who serves as the Navy Lord is concerned about Lycan II who clearly is suffering from seasickness.

However, Lycan II glares at him and immediately dismisses him.

The Lion tribe has a scary face to begin with. Anyone would be intimidated by it if they were being glared at.

Several trails of black smoke appear in the distance.

“Your Majesty, they’re finally here.”

“Groarr! Here they come! those furless apes! I’ll sink them into the bottom of the sea!”

Yes, that is the smoke of a steam engine. The Yamato Imperial Navy has arrived.

Yamato Calendar 22 November, Year 304.

Black smoke spewed out from the steam engine.

A huge hull of steel cutting through the waves.

A profound spectacle of a massive 31-centimeter cannon.

Battleships are great indeed…

The Royal Capital of Beastvania Beastkin Country, Lycanvania.

I arrived a dozen kilometers offshore aboard Führer’s ship, Fugaku. The 1st Fleet of the Imperial Navy is also with us.

Well, how can I say it, it’s…

“I’m just not convinced.”

“…What’s the matter, Eryu-san? Look, it’s a battleship.”

The Fugaku bridge’s Führer seat.

Seated on Ayame-san’s lap in what looks like the Captain’s seat, I complain a little unreasonably.

Because…

“Even though Roshana-san is able to board Fuji, and yet…”

To the front, the 1st squadron of battleships “Fuji” and “Yashima” and the 4th squadron of four armored cruisers are lined up in a single column to form a single vertical line.

That’s so cool.

Roshana-san is on board Fuji, the lead ship, and is watching the battle as a military observer.

I envy her.

Can I get on board a battleship and head out to the battlefield?

But, I didn’t get a chance to be on board because Ayame-san said no…

“Honestly… Eryu-san really can’t be helped. Can’t you just be satisfied with being on my lap?”

“I didn’t mean it that way, but…”

Mmm…

Ayame-san who is rubbing my thighs from behind. Please don’t touch my inner thighs.

I was also a boy who admired Admiral Togo in the Battle of Tsushima, so I have a romantic desire to be on board and be in command of a battleship.

Nevertheless… Sigh…

“Sir, the leading ship Fuji, has just sighted the enemy fleet. The enemy flagship seems to have the enemy King, Lycan II on board, just as expected.”

“Oh, please don’t make a mistake and blown them out of the water.”

Captain Yozakura salutes, “Roger that”.

Why does she casually pat me on the head as she leaves?, saying, “Consider it done, my Führer.”

I don’t dislike it because she has an older sister kind of vibe.

Also, Ayame-san, you would look pathetic if you glared at Yozakura-san that much, you know?

“Tch, that woman, to my Eryu-san…”

“Isn’t it fine if it’s just a pat on the head.”

“No, it’s not. Sigh… Eryu-san just doesn’t understand a maiden’s heart.”

Ayame-san gives a long sigh and her breath blows into my ear.

Maiden heart, huh… I wouldn’t have a hard time if I could understand it. Well, a lot has happened.

Alright, now.

In the meantime, the fleet has started to get busy. The main fleet moving forward at full throttle.

The fleet maneuver to suppress the enemy fleet’s path as it forms a T shape. It is classic crossing the T naval battle tactics2.

“Enemy fleet approaching from the front, our main fleet is making a quick turn. …Sir?”

I figured that I could just sit back and watch the battle, but I got up and asked Yozakura-san, “What’s up with these people all of a sudden?” That’s how it’s looked to me.

……Come on, Ayame-san, could you please stand up. Should we hold hands?

“…So, what’s the strength of the enemy fleet?”

“Approximately 20 galley ships.”

Hmm, then it seems going to be okay.

Let’s quickly capture the king with the whole ship. So we could force them to surrender by threatening them, thus ending the war.
