193 [3-50] The Princess of Curses from the Forest




 The final phase of the battle began abruptly.

 A large convoy of ships suddenly began to move northward along the Eel River, which flowed from the Kingdom of Lugarut to the Duchy of Cadenis and was also used as a canal.
 Naturally, there were many ports of entry along the river, but the Lugarut side passed through all of them unseen. The Duchy of Cadenis' side of the river has been neutralized by the destruction and carnage of the storm, and the convoy is well into the Duchy of Cadenis by the time its presence is confirmed.

 The Blue Army of the Caenis Empire's Gethenfall Forest Assault Force, stationed in the city of Traunil on the way, responded immediately. They positioned their cannons toward the river and prepared to intercept.
 However, they were unable to stop the fleet itself, and the fleet arrived at the plains before Traunil.
 The deformed army spewed out from the ships was formed overnight by a labor force ...... of undead soldiers who needed no rest. In addition, they carefully measured the range of the Blue Army's artillery, covered it with armor plates, and floated the gunboats with the cannons on the river.

 This is the first time I've ever seen it.

 Traunil is a common city surrounded by an anti-demon wall.
 It became the base of the Imperial Blue Army's attack force on the Great Forest of Goosenfall, but the city's original size simply could not accommodate many Blue Army soldiers, and its strength as a military base did not meet the Blue Army's expectations, so another city wall was built, connected to the original one.
 A monolithic base wall created by magic. A line of boxy buildings and rock forts. The garrison built by the Blue Army was attached to the city, as if the city had been divided.

 In the beginning, the senior officers of the troops stayed in comfortable facilities in the city, such as the old lord's castle, rather than in makeshift camps, but after the curse disease started to spread, they stayed in their camps and tried to stay away from the city.

 At the top of the rock fort built in the garrison, there were two men wearing full-face masks with crow's beaks to prevent infection.

They're like sneaky thieves, they're so quick on the uptake.

 In the event you're not sure what you're looking for, you'll be able to find it on the web.
 Jyudaku is already an aged human male. In his youth, he was an expert archer who left behind many legends. However, he could not conquer the advancing years and has long since put down his bow. Now, even in his old age, he is still using his clear mind and war experience to play a frontline role in the invasion war as a famous general who is the single hand of General Qing.

 Even Jyuzhuku was a little surprised that the demons had skipped the battle for position in the forest, which had been in a stalemate, and attacked Traunil.
 The dozens of cannons pointed at the city were not only those captured from the Blue Army. They were probably procured from the Kingdom of Lugarut as well.

 --Have you given up trying to drive our army out of the forest?
   ...... No, if we can win in a siege, we can win in the forest. Seeing that the plague is spreading well, you've come to be greedy for results.

 You've been lied to," Juzuku sniffs.

A city with an epidemic is easy to attack: ......
 I'm not sure what to make of it.

 In the event you're not sure what you're looking for, you'll be able to find it on the internet.
 In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

"Oh. It's hard to get a siege. ...... It's normal.

 I'm not sure what to make of that.
 In the event that you have any kind of questions regarding where and how to use the internet, you can call us at the web site.

Just abandon the citizens. We don't need medicine or food if they're dead.
 Just make sure the infection doesn't spread to the soldiers. And cleanse the bodies so they don't turn undead.
Ha!

 General Qing had already announced this policy, and Juyuku had also agreed to it.
 You can't protect the citizens in a siege war under these circumstances. If that's the case, we should just cut them off from the beginning.
 In the first place, if we lose, none of us will be able to survive, and there is no motive to place such importance on the lives of citizens who are not even Imperial subjects yet. That's what war is all about, Juzuku thought.
 After the war, there will be a need to think about how to coordinate the occupation and political propaganda in order to proceed smoothly, but that is a matter to be considered at that time.

The troops sent to defend the fort can also be used to break the siege.
 You can also expect reinforcements from the Blue Army's main body.
 There is also a hand(s) ......
 It won't be a bad fight. Let the foolish demons who are in a hurry to take credit take credit for our victory.
 They came all the way out from that godforsaken forest. Let's grind them to a pulp right here.

 Jyuzuku checked the city walls and the cannons on the walls surrounding the camp. No shortage.
 If we can cut down the civilians, this battle will be much easier.
 We have more than enough supplies, and we have reinforcements.

The only thing I'm worried about is running out of magic.

 The only thing that worries me is the fact that it's almost impossible to supply magic from the earth's veins while defending a city.
 The advantage of the defender in defending a city is that they can use more magic power than the attacker. However, the elves of the Great Forest have been suppressing the veins with unknown techniques, and the veins are like a dry well.

 However, if we were to attack the city with artillery, it would either be to attack and try to reduce the defensive magic, or to support the attack of the soldiers. Either way, I don't see any disadvantage.
 The troops stationed in Traunil had brought in a large amount of 'magic stones' from their home country, which are the fuel to run the magic items.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for, and how you can get it.
 I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on.
But if the enemy is really going to channel their magic out of the forest, ......
Oh. The veins around this Traunil will be more controlled by the city's router. If that's the case, we'll also have access to magic power, so the conditions are more than even.
 After all, the enemy's artillery will also rely on magic stones. Your Majesty, if you think you can cut down the 210,000 units of magic stones stored in this city, please visit .............

 If you can, you'll have a definite advantage due to the difference in quantity.

 It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

You will find a lot of things that you can do to make your life easier.
I'm not sure what to make of it.



 The crystal snake looked in the same direction.

 Behind the demons' camp. Upstream of the river.
 The greenish-skinned giants ...... and ogres are trying to fit some kind of huge device into the Eel River, as if to hold it back.
 Some sort of brass filter or sluice has been assembled, and the river water is flowing through it like the teeth of a comb.

I don't know. ......
...... No way.

 That's not something Jyuzhuku knows.
 In the event that you've got a lot of time, you'll be able to take a look at a few of the best ways to get the most out of your home.

I'm not sure what to do.
 I'm sure you'll be able to figure out what's going on. Now!
"Yes, sir?
