by admin“Ugh!”
The barbarians began charging at the imperial army.
The shaman held a staff and chanted a spell.
The air current flows and sweeps past the barbarians.
Then, the bodies of the barbarians began to glow red and become energetic.
“Prepare for arrows and shaman attacks!”
When the barbarians were within range of the arrows, they raised their shields above their heads.
Meanwhile, the empire side.
“Ready to fire!”
The archers aimed their bows, and the archers lifted their matchlocks and aimed.
The commander waited for the enemy to come into range.
“Fire!”
At the commander’s command, fire spewed out from the tips of the gunners’ matchlocks.
At the same time, the arrow that escaped the archer’s bow string drew a parabola.
-Turd. Told. Told.
Most of the arrows either stuck in the barbarians’ shields or bounced off them.
But unfortunately their shields could not withstand the firepower of the matchlock guns.
“Kaaak!”
“Ugh…”
The barbarians in the front line fell while running, but unlike last time, the barbarians did not stop.
Meanwhile.
“Is it a type of witchcraft?”
“No. I cannot feel the air current that occurs when casting a spell. It seems to be a new type of weapon.”
“I see.”
The warchief thought for a moment after hearing the shaman’s answer.
“If we attack that way, we can prevent our compatriots from falling before they can face them.”
“That will happen.”
“Please perform a magic attack.”
After speaking with the shaman, the warchief grabbed his ax and leaped forward.
The gunners spotted the Warchief approaching them quickly.
“Fire!”
Following the commander’s order, the matchlock guns opened fire again.
However, the warchief easily deflected the attack with an ax filled with aura.
He ran a short distance away, leaped into the air, and began to fall toward the shooters.
“Prepare for attack!”
At the command of the commander, the soldiers surrounded the gunner and raised their spears.
“Fuck haircut…”
Someone swore softly.
An auror shining menacingly from an axe.
The soldiers despaired, thinking they could not stop him.
It was then.
-Keying!
The warchief tried to jump into the middle of the gunners, but others stopped him.
Their swords were glowing with brilliant light.
The knights of the empire joined the battlefield.
“They are knights!”
“Damn, I lived!”
The soldiers of the empire, who had been sinking into despair, cheered when they saw the knights.
“Gunners prevent the barbarians from approaching! Ready to fire!”
Following the commander’s orders, they began to focus on their mission again.
Meanwhile, the knights began to confront the warchief.
“It’s of a good standard.”
One of the knights muttered.
The three of them cooperated to attack the warchief in one go, but they only managed to stop him.
“Sniff. Are they knights?”
After blowing his nose and spitting out blood, the warchief closed his ax again and held it.
The knights surrounded the warchief without saying a word.
“Huh!”
-Kang!
Their battle began when one of the knights blocked the warchief’s axe.
Meanwhile, the shaman cast spells to assist his compatriots.
As he chanted, flames began to form in the air.
Eventually, his spell, which coalesced into a huge fireball, tore through the air and flew towards the imperial army.
However, the fireball did not destroy the imperial army’s formation.
“Hmm. It’s pretty good.”
The wizard, who was muttering as he looked at the fireball, memorized a spell and swung his staff.
Then, the fireball explodes and scatters in the air.
“Is it my turn next?”
The wizard chanted a spell and swung his wand again.
Meteorites quickly began to coalesce in the air and were launched towards the barbarians.
Some of the meteorites struck the barbarians, but most were blocked by the shaman’s spell and shattered in the air.
“It’s fun.”
Although she had previously subdued magical beasts or participated in mock battles between wizards, this was her first time in real combat.
Excited by the excitement she felt for the first time, she licked her lips and prepared for the next attack.
Magic and sorcery clashed in the air, and the power struggle between the wizard and the shaman began.
However, the struggle did not last long.
“There must be a shaman over there.”
A knight muttering while looking at the location where the spell is formed.
“eggplant. Two would be enough.”
Another knight said as he warmed up.
Eventually, the two quickly ran to where the shaman was.
“It’s a knight! Prevent access to the shaman!”
More than 30 barbarians tried to stop them.
“Isn’t that too underestimated?”
“Kkkktt…”
The knights easily defeated them.
“Who is the shaman?”
“…It must be that one.”
Before they knew it, the shaman who had widened the distance tried to stop them with a spell.
-Suddenly.
The knight quickly closed the distance and swung his sword.
“Is there more?”
“…Let’s watch a little more.”
“Not a bad idea.”
They sank down in their seats and looked at the battlefield.
“Don’t you think the jeonse has already gone up?”
“Anyway.”
Before we knew it, the barbarians were clashing with the soldiers and engaging in battle.
However, the wizard cast a spell and unilaterally massacred them.
Soon the battle will be over.
It seemed like the winner had already been decided.
***
The warchief tried to get back up from the ground, but his injuries were so severe that he had no strength.
“Phew.”
He sighed and looked around.
I was able to quickly figure out how the situation was going.
The surviving compatriots were running away, and it wasn’t long before they collapsed.
The empire was more thoroughly prepared than he thought.
His wrong judgment drove his compatriots to their deaths.
“I was impressed when I saw his skills. To the point where I regret my birth.”
I could hear the knight muttering, but I didn’t have the strength to respond.
The warchief simply supported himself on the handle of the axe and caught his breath.
1:3.
It was a fight where the numbers were at a disadvantage.
However, I did not think that the warchief would have been able to defeat the knight even if they had fought 1:1.
The technology they used was on a different level.
I tried to push with force, but it wasn’t enough.
After being eaten away by metallurgy, the warchief exhausted his stamina.
“If I had only received proper training, I would have grown a lot. It’s a pity.”
“It’s something that can’t be helped.”
“…please take care of your compatriots.”
“What?”
In response to the knight’s question, the warchief opened his mouth again.
“…It’s my fault. My compatriots simply fought under my orders to survive. So please watch out for our compatriots.”
“Wow, it’s even cool.”
“This is a foul.”
The knights scratched their heads for a moment.
One of them stood in front of him, holding a sword.
“I will consider it.”
“…”
The warchief bowed his head.
…
“Then. Will you return?”
“…Sure.”
After the knights returned, they went to the commander to report.
***
“First, identify casualties.”
Following the commander’s order, the commanders began assessing casualties.
“1st Battalion Casualties…Injury…Hyeonjae-won…”
“2nd Battalion Casualties…”
“3rd Battalion…”
There were not many casualties.
“It was a lot of hard work. Thanks to your dedication, the people of the empire will be able to live their daily lives with peace of mind. So that everyone, except the minimum alert personnel, can rest until the next command.”
After ordering a break, the soldiers’ shouts are finally heard.
The commander left them behind and returned to his seat to rest.
“This is Adjutant Kurin Maxon. Can I come in?”
“Come in.”
“…Scouts have discovered the barbarian stronghold.”
The commander thought for a moment and then opened his mouth.
“I guess the warning was given. If you leave it alone, it will disperse on its own.”
“Yes. Then.”
The commander, who was looking at the back of the outgoing adjutant, soon sighed and began to look through the documents.
***
A report containing the results of the engagement with the barbarians arrived at the military command center.
“Interesting.”
“…That’s right.”
“I guess it hasn’t rusted yet. Hehehe.”
The report also included an evaluation of the matchlock gun.
“…is this much?”
“The exchange fee is amazing.”
“The question of whether it will work for drivers is negative.”
“But isn’t it definitely powerful against soldiers?”
“I would like to try using it in my unit as well.”
Officers who checked the report began to take interest in matchlock guns.
They began to post requests for the supply of matchlock rifles, which provided another job for citizens who are diligently working hard even today.
“Hey, Brown. Did you hear? I heard that the matchlock rifle received good reviews in actual combat.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes. I heard that the military also highly evaluates the value of matchlock guns. This will get you promoted soon. Haha!”
“Haha…”
“And this is a request for additional supply of matchlock guns.”
“7000…right? Ugh…”
From cannons to matchlock guns.
It was certainly a happy event, but Brown couldn’t be happier.
This is because the evaluation and workload were proportional.
Right now, blacksmiths in the capital are operating at full capacity, producing cannons.
But where does the order for the matchlock gun come from?
“Ah…”
“And, this is a secret.”
The team leader leans down and whispers softly.
“It is said that the empire appreciates your contribution and rewards you.”
“!”
“Then suffer! Haha!”
Brown’s workload increased by 200%!
