I am the Monarch
Chapter 23: Unexpected battle (3)
Chapter 23 : Unexpected battle (3)
A shape that seems to be telling them that.
âDonât face them directly!â
âPierce through them!â
âGather up!â
The thing the rose troop wanted was to pierce through the ogre army and get out of Intâs forest.
The cavalry try charging with great speed.
Dududududu.
Several muscled horses clash with the ogres.
Kukung. Kung.
Then, the ogres shake and fall on their butts.
The infantry raise their respective weapons and stab or slash while advancing.
And among them, the 42nd squad was also there.
âWhistle!â
Roan spun his thumb in a round way along with a whistle and pointed the front and rear.
âMake a circuit along the objective and charge out the fastest possible.â
Austin and the squad members analyzed the sign and move quickly.
Consistent movements.
Because of that, they could pass through 5 ogres instantly.
If they kept this, the 42nd squad would be able to get out of Intâs forest alive.
Then, Roanâs face became contorted.
âItâs blocked.â
The squad that were at the front got their feet tied and couldnât move, and the escape route got blocked as well.
âKill them!â
âKill!â
In that time, the orcs and goblin army that were at the sides came closer to them.
âDamn.â
Roan bit his lower lip and made hand signs to his back.
âPierce! To the front!â
âYes!â
Pierce, that was looking at the surroundings with a nervous expression, ran to him with a loud reply.
âOriginally, you should be able to handle three or four ogres by yourself.â
But of course, he was talking about what was supposed to happen next year.
âEven if it happened earlier, you shouldnât have any problems handling with one or two of them. On top of that, if it isnât killing themâ¦â¦..â
If it was only cutting the leg muscles of the ogres, he wouldnât have any problem against five of them.
If it was Pierce, he had to at least be able to do that much.
Roan wanted to believe that.
âPierce. You are going to stand at the front with me. We are charging through while slashing the legs of the ogre.â
âMe, me? No, I?â
Pierce talked impolitely and clenched his fist. (Donât know how to tl this)
Roan gripped his spear and nodded.
âYeah. If itâs you, you can do it.â
Flames appear in his eyes.
He looked at Pierceâs eyes fixedly.
âI believe in you.â
At that moment, Pierce felt his heart shaking greatly.
âHe believes in me?â
There wasnât even a trace of hesitation in Roanâs eyes.
Eyes that didnât doubt him in the slightest.
âHe believes that I will certainly be able to do it.â
He puts strength in his shoulders.
Roan, that was his training companion and now was his superior.
That Roan was believing in him wholly.
A feeling that one corner of his heart was getting proud.
âI have to act according to his expectations.â
He puts strength in his grip.
Pierce shut his mouth and nodded.
At that moment, a faint smile appears in Roanâs mouth.
âRight. You just have to fix that soft heart of yours.â
He took in a deep breath, and after he opened his left hand he tilted it towards the rear and front.
The sign of charging.
Spat!
Roan runs at the front.
Pierce followed him with a face that was a bit strange in colour, and the remaining 42nd squad members also followed his back.
Spat! Puck!
Roanâs and Pierceâs spear slash through the air.
The sharp point and blade of the spear slash through the ogreâs leg.
The skills of the two people was clearly seen by the eyes.
Pierce had a splendid spearmanship polished with outstanding talent and senses.
Compared to him, Roanâs spearmanship didnât have unnecessary movements and had a fierce vigor.
Spat!
The spear of the both of them slash through the legs of an ogre.
âKuoooooong!â
Boom.
The ogre that kneels down along with a cry.
The cavalrymen throw ropes to its neck as if they were waiting for it.
Tighten.
As the muscled horses pull the ropes, the big body of the ogre falls to the ground.
Swiiiiiiish!
Pubobobok!
Continued by that, the arrows of the archers get stuck in its body.
It was quite an excellent combination, but Roan was already looking what was going to happen next.
âPierce! Move to the left! Ghost squad! To the center!â
The order he yells with all of his strength.
Pierce and the squad members move as if they were one body.
Spat!
The spear slashes through the air once again.
âWow. The guys of the 42nd squad are amazing!â
âIf they keep it, they will really become a ghost squad!â
At the actions of the 42nd squad, the members of other squad also say in amazement.
And among the squad, they were looking at Roan and Pierce that were facing at the ogres in the front.
âDonât you think that squad commander Roanâs skill is becoming better by the day?â
âAnd what about the skills of that greenhorn spearman?â
âThey say that those two are acquaintances from the training camp.â
Voices of amazement.
Then, Roan that was facing the ogres and checking the battlefield yells with all of his strength.
âGhost squad! To the back! Scatter!â
His left hand that shakes urgently.
Austin and the 42nd squad members quickly fall back and break the formation.
Boom!
At that moment, two huge clubs get stuck to the ground.
The ogres that were at the sides were aiming for the 42nd squad and swirled their clubs.
âWas he facing the ogres and checking the situation at our side!â
Austin put a surprised expression and looks at Roan.
âKuoooooong!â
Then, the ogreâs cry hit their ears.
Fiung.
A sharp and heavy noise that tears the air.
A huge club cuts the air and smash the soldiers.
Puuk!
âGrr!â
âKukh!â
Many soldiers get bounced off after they get hit by the club.
Unfortunately, they didnât have a squad commander like Roan.
âDonât get scared and pierce through!â
âCavalrymen! Take the attention of the ogres!â
Gale and the adjutants stand at the forefront and encourage the soldiers.
In this situation, it clearly showed that the rose troop was certainly a good one.
Even the adjutants that blamed Roan for getting trapped, when the battle started they started to fight alone to at least save one more soldier.
âGet out of their range of attacks!â
âThe ones at the front! Donât stop as you wish! The soldiers at the back will get in danger!â
âCharge! Charge!â
Orders and repeating the orders, the yells get mixed.
âKuoooooong!â
The cry of the ogres shake the battlefield.
The battle became fierce like that.
******
âHuu. Huu. Huu.â
âHuk. Huk. Huk.â
Rough breaths could be heard.
The soldiers of the rose troop sit astride on the hill and let out rough breaths.
A situation where saying even one word was difficult.
Even so, faint delight could be seen in the faces of the soldiers.
âWe survived!â
âWe survived!â
They shook off the orcs and the goblins after piercing through the ogres.
While they did that, 200 soldiers died, but even more survived.
The surprising thing was that no one died from the 42nd squad.
âWhew.â
Roan sat on the dirt ground and looked at the squad members that were resting.
They were all drenched in sweat and had many injuries.
And among them, Pierceâs appearance was really bad.
âPierce.â
âYes.â
Pierce, that was catching some breath, stood from the place.
Roan smiled dimly and grabbed both of his shoulders.
âYou did well. Because of you, the squad members could all survive.â
âSquad commander has also had it hard.â
Pierce smiled faintly and lowered his head.
The eyes of the squad members that were looking at the both of them were filled with amazement and adoration.
âAmazing.â
âI canât believe that they are only 18.â
âThese two people will certainly become commanders whose names will get spread on the continent.â
Roan, that didnât know that the squad members were thinking of this, hit Pierceâs shoulders and turned his head.
The place his eyes were directed to was the place where Gale and the adjutants were resting.
âThereâs still something left to do.â
In the first place, the reason why he proposed charging through the left and not the front and rear was because there was the road to escape but also because of one more reason.
âWe have to save the three squads that chose to charge through the front.â
The three squad that get out of Int forest meet with a monster army at a hill.
âAnd the number of them are roughly 5 thousand.â
The total soldiers of the ramsey troop, absolute troop, and grayum troop were barely 2 thousand.
If he left them like this, they would all get annihilated.
âOriginally, Pierce showed extraordinary skills and made a path to escapeâ¦â¦â¦â
But now, Pierce was next to him, and not there.
âThe current number of soldiers of rose troop right now are 600.â
Even if they went to rescue, they wouldnât be able to do much.
âBut if itâs that methodâ¦â¦.â
Roanâs eyes shine.
5 years from now on, a student of Tron academy that was located in the capital of Miller presents one report to the headquarters of the kingdom.
In the report, the analysis of the ambush tactic of the monsters, and the incompetent countermeasure of the troops of the 7th corps was written.
At the contents of the report, it was obvious for the commander of the 7th corps and the generals all got displeased and opposed to it fiercely.
The student that got those reactions because of the report he made, only named one strategy.
The commander and the generals that saw that strategy all shut their mouths.
The evaluation of the commanders that analyzed the strategy.
The king that got to know of this late diffused the report made by the academy student to the armies and the corps that were at the front lines.
And Roan too, could read that report.
âIf itâs the strategy that was written in the reports, we may be able to save the three troops.â
A smile that appears in his face.
He doesnât worry if the strategy in the report will fail or not.
âBecause this strategy is the first piece of art of that person.â
The academy student that made the .
He was Ian Phillips, that was called as an extraordinary genius strategist.
