Chapter 168 Klein Attacks
Chapter 168 Klein Attacks
Not everything is said. Nor can everything be conveyed with the available words, due to differences in social formations and the tools of civilization.
However, people's inner ways remain unchanged, and some things can be communicated.
I no longer feel the heartache I felt back then.
There was a beautiful person, squinting her eyes and looking at me with kindness.
There was a brave man who, despite being surprised, tried to understand my suffering.
There is a lovely orc who will shed tears for other people's heartache as if it were his own.
There are a group of people who treat me like family.
Ye Kai was already surrounded by his cherished companions.
(Like a wall.)
This is what General Conkret thought.
No matter how hard they attacked, they could not defeat the enemy. Although the difference in numbers between them and the enemy was not a big problem, they could neither advance nor create any gaps.
So he tried to bypass the squad and attack the enemy's supply line, but it seemed to be destroyed. On the contrary, it seemed that there were secret troops lurking in the enemy's supply team, gradually weakening them. If this continued, it would be impossible to even maintain the front line.
It's like a quarrel between adults and children. Once the opponent gets serious, they will be completely defeated.
General Conkret still couldn't imagine what had caused the current situation. Although the invasion was supposed to be carried out in secret, the enemy was well prepared.
The enemy prepared a stronger army than them. Could it be that the enemy's spies were not eliminated? Impossible. The assassination team Dyne's mission was undoubtedly completed. That was the trump card of the Treba Empire. There was no way it could fail.
But the reality seems to be that the only explanation is an intelligence leak. Even considering this, their reaction speed is too fast.
The calculation based on the number of days they were organized did not match. Without foresight, how could they have formed a counterattack army so quickly? Did the Kingdom of Phrygia also develop foresight magic?
Such fantasies even emerged in General Conkret's mind.
The word "retreat" flashed through his mind. But there was hesitation. There were few choices. Fight and die here, or flee and die in disgrace? Or just run away from here and blend in with the bandits? He would even consider such a thing.
He felt the sunshine in the distance, the one who had dreamed of wealth and glory. Everything had collapsed. There was no way out. He knew he was standing in the abyss of despair.
Then, someone's voice loudly sent him on his way.
“Assault!!”
He felt excited when the king's order came down.
Finally, he felt that he too had been entrusted with such a great responsibility. He straightened his back to meet the wishes of His Majesty's father.
However, if you calm down and think about it, Klein is about to go to the battlefield. There is a place where he will negotiate at the risk of his life. Of course, the worst case scenario is also possible.
He looked at Eleanor's face and realized it immediately. A different kind of trembling took over his whole body. Even putting his hands on his wife's shoulders could not stop it. He had never thought that he could be so timid.
"you?"
"I'm sorry, Eleanor. Now I'm starting to get scared."
Only in front of Eleanor could Klein complain without scruples. He always maintained the dignity of the crown prince, but he could only relax in front of her.
She touched his cheek, which was tense with fear. "Think about it, Klein. Do you think Ye Kai will leave you alone? You have the support of the strongest warriors in the West."
“Yes, yes…”
“You just need to stand in front of the army and keep calm. The rest will be left to the experts and Ye Kai.”
"That's right. I can't fail. The Secretary of War will take care of it. I just have to trust and stay calm, right?"
"Yes, absolutely. Then, will you please come back to see me with your victory?"
"I understand! I promise you. I will go to the battlefield to bring victory to the nation and you. And then return safely!"
Eleanor would be lying if she said she wasn't nervous. On a battlefield, anything could happen. Even a layman knew that.
However, the only task now is to never show that kind of anxiety. It is the wife's responsibility to encourage her husband who is going to war.
Everything will be fine. Because they have their sworn brother.
Even in the northern jungle, where the average human survival time might be only six minutes, Ye Kai could walk through it easily, humming a tune and laughing while talking about insignificant things. As long as he was there, there was nothing to be afraid of.
This was the way it should have been for an emergency assembly, but the sight of 40,000 troops marching in formation was still extremely spectacular.
He was ashamed of the fact that he felt afraid in the face of such a powerful force. Why should he be afraid in the face of such a powerful force?
Standing next to the majestic warhorse, Klein thought.
"Father, I wish you a safe journey. Senna prays for you every day and looks forward to your safe return."
"Ah, thank you. Don't worry, just wait for me to come back."
"Yes."
“I pray with my sister too!”
"Thank you, Zayn. I will try my best to repay your expectations."
"Yes, father."
The two hugged each other and accepted the bouquet of flowers. Although it was just a formality, it was a happy thing.
“Have a safe trip. I’ll be praying for your good luck.”
“I will be back. I want to eat the cake you made when I come back.”
“No, I can’t let you run around. You have to be more serious.”
"Oh, sorry, I was just too impulsive. Don't worry, I'll ask Senna and Zayn to take care of it."
“Okay, leave it to me.”
After a few days of preparation, Klein seemed very calm.
"That's about it, Your Highness. Let's go."
"Ah, I'll leave the Secretary of War to you as well."
"Leave it to me. Your Highness is just a decoration. When the battle is over, it will be your turn to play a role."
"Don't be so obvious. You'll destroy the morale that has just been boosted."
"I'm so sorry. It's the general's responsibility to boost morale."
Galatea said this without any guilt.
"Anyway, let's give everyone some orders first."
"Understood."
Klein mounted his horse and shouted, "Charge!!"
On the way forward, people from all around came out to cheer the soldiers. Although this was a campaign to save the allies from danger, it was grateful to receive support from them who were shouldering the heavy burden. This proved the people's trust in the royal policy.
Klein's ideal relationship is that the royal family cares about the people and the people are loyal to the royal family. His Majesty's policies will not change significantly, and he hopes that he can continue His Majesty's political line of caring about the people. In this way, he can be sure that there will be no major turmoil in the country.
Although there were some minor conflicts when crossing the border, the defense team against Treba was simply unable to compete with 40,000 people. Although they formally retreated at full speed after the battle, in fact they fled at full speed.
Next, the army advanced smoothly, but when they saw the imperial capital of Loajin, which was five or six kilometers ahead, the enemy troops were already ambushed there. So they ordered the entire army to stop marching and make equipment changes and formation adjustments.
