151 – true winner 1

Allied forces blocking the offensive of the Turkic Empire.

However, the charter, which had been slightly advantageous due to the arrival of reinforcements, returned to square one before long.

“Damn… those guys again.”

Although it was the Turkic Empire Army that suffered considerable losses in the counterattack of the Allied Forces. The beings, including the shaman, who were still the main force, were in a situation where they did not suffer any losses.

And, they who had been supporting for a while until now finally started to take action.

“The key with the power of light…”

“You will appear in front of me in your true form..”

“According to the contract with you, Kerry orders it.”

“Unseal!”

As soon as the shaman’s spell ends, beings pop out of their magic tools.

At first, they looked like simple smoke, but they began to take on their own unique shapes, such as beasts and fairies.

government ordinance.

Beings known to be the embodiment of the power of the natural world, they could exert their power or materialize through a contract with a shaman.

However, there were some downsides to this. First of all, the spirit’s physical power was not that strong.

A level that is similar to that of regular soldiers, or even weaker if the shaman’s proficiency is insufficient.

And when the spirit that materialized in this way received a physical force strong enough to kill a person, the magic was released and it was impossible to materialize for a while.

The duration also depends on the skill of the shaman, but on average it is about two days.

And crucially, although spirits obey the shaman’s will, they basically have their own ego, and this is quite strong.

Because of that, they basically followed simple orders to some extent, but the rest tended to go wild depending on their mood or being swept away by the atmosphere around them, so it was better not to attempt a cooperative attack with other allied troops.

This is because it can easily lead to a situation in which the spirit attacks an ally just because you don’t like what it looks like.

However, despite these shortcomings, at this point when the number of shamans exceeded 10,000, the offensive made only by the spirits was able to exert a power close to fraud by itself.

10,000 units that are refilled every two days.

A never-ignorable barrage that continues uninterrupted unless the shaman is directly hit.

As it continued over ten days in a row, the allied forces slowly. However, it was very clear that the damage was accumulating.

“Damn… if only those shamans could do anything!”

Although it was Gerard and the longevity who went into anger. They also did not have a sharp way about the current situation.

Although the materialization of the spirit leaves the shaman in a state of defenselessness, in which he cannot use any magic for a while, this was, of course, a fact that the Turkic Empire was well aware of.

Even now, the shamans are under the impregnable protection of other corps.

In addition, while the lizard forks were also reorganized, they were prepared for an unexpected attack by Winged Husard.

In other words, at this point, in order to attack the shamans, it was virtually impossible to jump into the middle of enemy lines, so from the point of view of the allied forces, this was an impossible option.

In the end, the allied forces, unable to handle the cumulative damage, abandoned the camp on the outskirts and completely engulfed the army inside the fortress.

Even though in the meantime, he couldn’t stand the situation of being hit one-sidedly and carried out several night raids and surprise attacks. Nevertheless, it was not possible to reverse the charter, which was becoming unfavorable every moment.

As a result, the allies suffered a loss of 30,000 troops in the last 10 days of fighting, while the enemy suffered less than 10,000.

At least, the combat power of this side, which included many magic users, was overwhelmingly superior to that of the spirits, so it ended like this.

‘But now that’s the limit. The enemies took enough rest while attacking using only the spirits and completely finished the reorganization of the army.

In that case, it was clear that the allied forces, exhausted and weak from continuous battles, would not be able to hold on and be defeated.

Although the defense of the fort was not bad, it was impossible to defend against the enemy’s frontal attack in this state.

That was the time when Gerard was at a loss as to how to deal with the hopeless situation.

“Commander Gerard.”

“Ah.. General Fabre.”

General Favre arrived in front of Gerard with heavy steps due to heavy fatigue.

Although the damage of the other allied forces was formidable, it was still the Franz Kingdom Army that suffered the most damage.

During the battle up to this point, the large army, which initially numbered 50,000, now had less than 5,000 remaining soldiers.

A situation that has suffered damage that can be literally called annihilation.

To those who made such a great sacrifice with only a simple sense of duty and faith, Gerard was deeply grateful even now.

And, looking at Gerard like that, General Fabre asked in a voice that felt calm even in this situation.

“How are things?”

“… It’s honestly not very good. At least the spirits’ offensive was defended by the efforts of Polandia and Kalmar’s army. The end will probably be seen tomorrow at the earliest, or two days at the latest.”

Gerard tells the truth without hesitation.

In response, General Fabre nodded heavily.

“Certainly… at that point, the enemy’s main force will move. Has there been any news from the Holy Empire yet?”

“Yes, the last report was about defending against a raid by the Dragona Empire three days ago. After that…”

“Ummm..”

Gerard’s words make it impossible to expect even the slightest hope.

In response, General Fabre made one crucial decision.

“General… I have one request for you, General.”

“What is? Say anything.”

In fact, it was the Franz Kingdom Army who did almost everything they could here.

At this point, even if I said I would return, I had nothing to say, and rather, it would not be enough to express my sincere gratitude for the sacrifices so far.

But… the story that came out of General Fabre’s mouth was not like that.

“That…what is that… are you telling us to leave this place and run away?”

“It’s not about running away, it’s about making a promise to the future. The general is the commander-in-chief of Hungary. The presence or absence of a general could affect the entire Hungarian army. Later, when the battle in Budapest takes place, you need to think about it too. And this is the same as the captains of the other allied forces, we need their help to move the remaining troops still in the Kingdom of Poland.”

“But, how are you supposed to do that? How can you leave only the General and Franz here and just us…”

Favre’s words to leave the defense here to yourself and retreat in the gap.

In response, Gerard expressed embarrassment and objected.

However, looking at Gerard like that, Favre said with a bitter smile.

“Haven’t I already told you before? I mean, I’m determined to die here. As you know, even if I and my subordinates return to Franz, it will be difficult to avoid punishment. For us like this, dying fighting for the Lord until the end is the only way to keep our honor as warriors and generals of Great Franz.”

“General..”

General Favre showing a firm will.

As a result, Gerard could not stop him, and Fabre, looking at him like that, spoke with a confident yet bright voice.

“You don’t have to be so depressed. As a warrior and as a servant of the Lord, it is to swing the sword and die for Him. Where would such a glorious death be? In addition, this is a golden opportunity to wash away the dishonor of our country through our sacrifice. Shouldn’t we be happy!”

His words are romantic yet strong determination.

In response, Gerard, as a warrior and as a servant of the same Lord, honored him wholeheartedly.

“For Franz.”

“For the glory of the Lord!”

The two generals show their respect to each other with a final resolution.

Five days after that, all Franz soldiers who had participated in the Allied Forces fell to the ground with a glorious death.

5000 to 110,000

While writing a legend to block the enemy’s great offensive that was thought impossible for three days.

At the same time… while raising the honor of the kingdom of Franz, which had been lost.
