139 – Calamity Wave 7

Thanks to Gerard’s efforts, Franz barely managed to catch his breath.

However, the charter was still a situation that could never be said to be advantageous.

“Damn it, it’s coming again!”

“Prepare all troops to fire!”

Again, like the time of the ants, the generals gave the order to fire while watching the enemies running.

At the same time, the Hungarian troops located in the citadel also prepared an attack as the distance was close this time.

“Archers forward, artillerymen and magicians also stand by. Wait until the enemies come deeper!”

A department commander who has been entrusted with command by Gerard.

Although he had poor fighting skills, he knew how to efficiently manage the army as much as he was recognized by Gerard for his commanding ability.

“launch!”

Hungarian forts pouring out shells, arrows and magic all at once according to the command of the manager.

In order to inflict greater damage, it was more efficient to sever the enemy’s waist, and the manager’s idea hit the mark.

The Turks, who were unexpectedly attacked by the narrowed field of view by the leading troops and the wall in the name of the advancing army, suffered even greater damage.

And right after that, the hundreds of soldiers who went ahead of the Franz army were annihilated as they were.

However, despite this, the momentum of the Turks did not break at all.

An ally died right in front of their eyes, or one of their arms fell off. They didn’t care at all and continued their advance.

It wasn’t just because of their bravery.

It was because the magicians in the rear were currently casting spells that reduced their fear.

Not knowing fear was a very unfavorable factor in the survival of living organisms, but in a battlefield where one has to risk one’s life like now, it was a very effective means of raising the combat power of troops.

“Advance! Prove the might of the empire with your own hands!”

Bintu, commander of the 2nd corps, orders the march without hesitation

Now that Ahab had withdrawn from command of the 1st Legion, he saw this as a golden opportunity to make a feat for himself.

‘This time, I’ll prove who the best general in Turkey is. It’s to pay back the shame of being treated as second-class in my later years right here!’

Under the command of Bintu, who burns such extremely personal ambitions, the imperial army finally reached the formation of Franz’s army.

Accordingly, the Franz army prepared for the attack of the Imperial Army, which would penetrate their formation from the front, as before.

But… before the enemy’s attack begins…

“Ah!”

“Keuouk!”

“What.. what is it?”

“What’s going on?”

Franz-kun suddenly starts to collapse.

No, Franz-kun wasn’t the only one who collapsed after being attacked.

Even among the Hungarian troops located in the fort in the rear, people screaming and falling down appeared one after another.

At the time when the soldiers were perplexed by this unknown situation, the generals commanding the front noticed something and shouted urgently.

“be careful! This time it’s heaven!”

At those words, the soldiers finally turned their gaze upward.

A lofty expanse that even arrows can’t reach.

There, the girls who had been watching the situation until now…

The sirens were starting to move.

“Kyaaa!!!”

Sirens flying over Franz’s formation while emitting sharp cries like eagles.

At the height of the floating clouds, they aimed their bows and javelins toward the ground.

And..

“Keoouk!”

“Quaaagh!”

Arrows and spears began pouring down from hundreds of meters in the air.

Although the distance was so far away that their aiming skills were not very good, they could be said to be threatening enough by themselves as they poured like rain.

“Damn it!”

“We have to drop those guys somehow!”

“An arrow can’t even reach it! How are you going to stop that?”

Watching the sirens pouring a one-sided attack from an impossible position to attack, all Franz could do was to wait for the situation to end somehow with his shield up.

An offensive that falls from a position where arrows and even magic are useless.

Due to this, thousands of soldiers were unable to use their hands and fell or were injured, and the formations that had barely been held began to crumble slowly.

And, accordingly, the Turkic Empire forces started digging into the formation of Franz’s army.

Even though they also came within the range of attack of the sirens. For those who had lost their fear, this was no problem.

At this moment, all they had in their heads was to swing their guns and kill the enemy in front of them, even if the arrows were stuck.

An extreme tactic that only considers inflicting damage on the enemy without considering damage to allies.

This was the fighting method of Corps Commander Bintu, who puts achievement first, and it began to inflict enormous damage on the 2nd Corps and Franz at the same time.

“Keugh!”

“Gagging!”

The Franz army and the Turk Empire army fall down after being hit by arrows and spears raining down from the sky.

It was common for the advancing Turkic Empire’s army to be suddenly pierced by a spear and to die, or for the Franz Kingdom’s army, which was blocking the enemy’s attack, to fall by being hit by an arrow.

It is common for those who wield spears and swords at each other to die at the same time.

However, watching such a hellish scene, General Bintu’s mouth was filled with only a smile of delight.

‘Good. If we keep going like this, Franz’s army will surely be finished, and if we’re lucky, we’ll be able to annihilate the Hungarian army as well. With this, I will become the protagonist of this war!’

In this way, at the cost of their soldiers, Binz raises a tremendous record and burns even more expectations and ambitions.

at that time..

“Kyaaagh!!!!!”

“Keew!”

“… uh?”

“What.. what is it?”

The next moment, the siren’s offensive suddenly stopped at the same time as the deafening cries.

Immediately after that, instead of bows and spears, dozens of sirens’ corpses began to fall to the ground where the Franz army and the Turk army were fighting.

Sirens died instantly with huge chunks of ice embedded in their chests and wings.

Immediately after that, the sirens who were dominating the skies of the battlefield suddenly began to wander,

At the same time, Franz’s army, who was in confusion, quickly began to deal with the situation.

“What.. what the hell is going on? Why all of a sudden…”

It was obviously a good thing from the point of view of the allies, but General Fabre expressed deep doubts about this incomprehensible situation.

at that time..

“ruler… General! there! Look over there!”

“!.. that.. that is..”

The next moment, General Favre’s lips spread a bright smile.

What he sees in his eyes is familiar yet so welcome.

They were the ones he had been waiting for all this time.

An army filling one plain at this moment.

There were tens of thousands of cavalrymen riding heavily breathless horses.

However, there was one great feature of the cavalry which differed it from other cavalry units of the continent in general.

On their backs are decorations in the shape of huge wings.

The symbol, clearly visible like a flag, made it clear to everyone on the battlefield who they were.

“That… Certainly the kingdom of Poladia…

“Winged Husad!”

wingedhusad

As the continent’s strongest cavalry, they are the symbol of the Kingdom of Poland, which has made remarkable achievements in numerous battles.

And hundreds of people lined up on either side of them.

The coldness they used to shoot down the Sirens just before was still lingering on their staffs, clad in blue robes.

“I guess we’re not too late.”

“Isn’t that Franz and Hungary? Considering the value of the name, of course we have to endure this much.”

Benedict, captain of Winged Husard, speaks in a calm voice, and Elena, commander-in-chief of the Kalmar Mage Corps, speaks in a light tone.

Right after that, the two aimed their swords and staffs as they watched the Turkic imperial army showing embarrassment at their appearance.

“All troops!”

“Attack!”

As soon as the words dropped, the Winged Hussar rushed toward the enemy camp at a terrifying speed.

Then, the magicians floated in the air and began to fly rapidly towards the sirens who were still dominating the formation of Franz’s army.

“Um… ”

Bahamut returned to Schwyz’s mansion.

There, he was deeply troubled while reading a letter addressed to him.

“you. What kind of letter is that?”

As the situation was, Bahamut remained silent for a while in response to Bertina’s question, who temporarily fled here according to his recommendation, and handed it to Bertina directly.

And, in the process of checking the contents after accepting it, Bertina also automatically began to frown.

“This… looks like it’s pretty upsetting just by looking at it…”

“I guess so. It may not be the case with the merciful emperor, but that princess is the kind of person she is.”

“So… what are you going to do?”

Bertina asked with a little worry and doubt.

After thinking about this for a while, Bahamut slowly opened his mouth.

“For now… I’m thinking of bumping into it.”
