I Become a Rogue Lord in a World Where Only I Level Up

*

"What do you mean by surprise?

Chief of Staff Hayna said with surprise.

Yes, sir. The newly appointed commander made him confess.

"What's that? ......

Hayna was taken aback. How dare she take an enemy scouting party as a prisoner of war to get a confession as soon as she was assigned to her post.

It's true that we have captured the enemy forces. I guess we got lucky.

Luckily. ...... Hayna is getting confused and has a headache. The enemy forces are already advancing on Ganen Castle. The surprise attack on the supply base in this situation was not to be dismissed as mere nonsense.

The general, Duke Ronen, was preparing for a decisive battle at Bern Castle with the entire force of the Ronen family, which is currently the only elite army in the Lunan Royal Army. He was determined not to give up Bern Castle alone.

It was a huge blow to have a supply base shaken up in such circumstances.

Hayna was a relative of the Ronen dukes, but not a direct descendant. Therefore, he did not refuse to take up the position of chief of staff in an attempt to enhance the honor of the Berghins, who are despised in the aristocratic society of the Lunan Kingdom for being a collateral damage.

I didn't want to be treated crudely in aristocratic society any more. So, failure is really unacceptable.

Especially the situation where Duke Ronen had accepted the heavy responsibility of guarding Linon Castle in his absence. That fact was a burden to Hayna.

In the meantime, bring the prisoner to me now. I'll question him in person.

"Yes, sir!

Having given the order to Hadan, Hayna immediately retracted her previous statement.

"No, wait!

Looking at the map again, Hayna began to worry. Ganen and Bern castles are not going to fall soon. No matter how you look at it. Then, for now, the supply base was the top priority.

"I'll go with you. I'll move to the supply depot with half the forces of Castle Linon!

"I'm sorry, sir!

Hadan nodded. But Hayna, who had been troubled for a while, changed her mind again.

It's a struggle itself.

But still. If you use it as a decoy and Linon Castle is taken by surprise ....... No, Linon Castle's troops and walls that high would be enough to hold up. So, for now, the supply base is more ......

Hayna bit her lip, which was troubled by many assumptions.

"Haddan. You must return to the supply base now. Never leave the fortress. And tell your commanders to do the same. No matter what happens, stay in the fortress and be ready for a surprise attack!

Yes, sir. But, General Staff. I can't hold on to the soldiers in the supply unit. ......

If there really is a surprise attack, I'll go directly to the rescue. I'll take half of the Linon Castle's force and set up a position halfway between the supply base and Linon Castle, just in case we can't hold out long enough to come from the midway point. We'll be able to hold out long enough for them to rush in from the midway point. Give the signal with the wolfsbane!

So. If they attacked Linon Castle in a decoy operation, we would immediately return to the scene, and if the supply base was really taken by surprise, we would immediately go to the rescue. A strategy that can be applied in both cases.

Hayna thought it was a reasonably good strategy, and commanded while pleased with herself.

And send the captured soldiers to the camp. I'll question him.

"Yes, I will return to the supply base then!

In order for the enemy to make a surprise attack on the base, you need to take a detour from Ganen Castle.

So, I left the reconnaissance mission to a guy named Jido, who Givens said was a good man.

Chapter 200

If you exclude those 200 men and the troops on supply runs, I currently have 4,800 men available to operate.

All centurions on the Hadan side were eliminated in the operation in preparation for this surprise attack.

Yes, they were ordered to defend themselves in the fortress separately. They were separately ordered to defend themselves in the fortress.

And I marched into the detour with 4,800 men.

Fighting in the fortress would ensure certain defeat. The fortress could have fallen before help arrived from Linon Castle. Rather than that, we need a strategy that can take us by surprise and repel the enemy all at once!

It was in the river that flows at the very midpoint of the detour.

Depth to the waist.

It's not that deep.

If the pooled water was poured in one fell swoop after reducing the volume of river water to ankle-deep depth, at least a few hundred enemy soldiers were likely to be wiped out.

Chapter 10

In the unlikely event that you have an army of such size, you should immediately retreat and crawl into the fortress.

But the invading Nalja Kingdom Army is not that large to begin with.

Of course, the water attack can not wipe out a wide range of enemies.

It is impossible for a river of that size to hold that much water.

This is only possible with enough people, time, and plenty of water in the river.

My aim here is to use the stored water to raise the level of the river to temporarily divide the enemy.

The strategy to attack the rest of the divided enemy after sweeping the enemy, which then charged across, and then attacked the rest of the divided enemy.

We quickened our march and before we knew it, a river appeared in front of us.

An unavoidable path for enemy soldiers to come to the supply base.

Of course, it is upstream of this river to set a trap.

"Go upstream and block the channel. Follow me.

First, I gathered the centurion in front of the river and explained the plan. At first, everyone looked puzzled, but they began to accept that this was a plan with a good chance of success, and then they obeyed, so I led them all upstream.

This looks good. Now dam up the water here. All forces move in teams in a systematic manner. All right!

With the order, the embankment construction began, and 4,800 people began to move in unison.

Fortunately, there was no wolfsbane in the sky.

If the enemy moves, the pre-sent Jido wolfsbane.

As I was working, checking the sky, a soldier from my army came running in the distance. No, it's our army, but it's also the enemy's army.

It was Hadan, my second-in-command.

'Commander!　This is not the time for such an imitation. It is an order from the General Staff. We are not to act rashly, but to stay at the base!

Hadan proudly proclaims the orders of his staff.

Wait at the base?

By all accounts, that's the worst strategy. It's not too late to return to the fortress after the failure of the operation here.

However, the centurions began to be upset by Hadan's words. Even more so because the word "general staff" was even mentioned.
