Became a Strategist With an Intelligence of 100 and an Accuracy Rate of 100%

10 – Episode 10. Invasion of the Brans Army (2)

*

“Put that old man in the vanguard? Then what about me?”

Tifa asked while looking at the map of Zeeland and its surrounding area placed on the table.

I tapped the place where the castle was and said.

“Tifa, you can defend the territory with 2,000 soldiers inside the castle.

“Wait… Just wait a moment.”

At my words, Kane asks, wiping the cold sweat from his face.

“If I entrust Miss Tifa with two thousand soldiers… Who will be the one at the forefront?”

“Please participate with the remaining soldiers.

After hearing those words, Kane asked back with a shocked expression.

“I understand that if 2,000 men are deployed within the territory to defend Zeeland, even if all the soldiers to go out as interceptors are collected, there will be about 1,300 people left… Perhaps I am mistaken?”

“No, that’s right.”

So what I’m saying now is-

The internally appointed general, who is clearly not a general, was assigned to lead the vanguard with only 1,300 soldiers and had him deal with 8,000 soldiers.

It was said that the 2,000 soldiers would just be used as a defense force.

And that too with the general who is most skilled in battle within the force.

This is a decision that even a ten-year-old child would not understand.

Honestly, I didn’t understand why I was giving instructions like this.

It’s just that my head was telling me, ‘This is the right way to do it.’

“… Mr. Swen. Do you have any resentment toward me? No matter how much I think about it, it only sounds like I’m being bait and telling you to go out and die.”

“Yes! If Old Man Kane takes the lead, he will definitely die! I’d rather take the lead!”

“No. Tifa, please work hard to defend the territory.”

“So why!!”

Tifa shouted and spoke as if she was frustrated.

“You don’t have to tell me the reason! If there is a strategy, there is a plan. If there is an idea, there is an idea. If there is a plan, please help me as I try to figure it out. That’s the way to communicate. “You can do it, right? We’re on the same side! We should be able to at least share information!”

Yes.

What she said was right a hundred times.

I’m going crazy because I want to tell you too.

I want to calmly tell you to follow me because I plan to win miraculously somehow.

But what can we do!

I can only predict [The result] That this is good.

The [Process] Leading up to the [Result] Was unpredictable.

What I had to do as a bookkeeper was to package this ‘process’ as convincingly as possible.

But no matter how much I try to package it, it’s not like I have any idea about tactics.

If you talk nonsense and it is resolved in a different way, then it will be just as embarrassing.

This game [Garand Eternity Saga] Is also an old-fashioned game, so it is not a game that requires high-level tactics from the player.

Still, this reaction was completely understandable.

[No matter what happens, the result will be good. But I don’t know what will happen. Anyway, please trust me and do as I tell you.]

If there was a schemer who said that, I thought that if I were a monarch, I might cut off my head for shame.

That kind of comment might work after showing something, but I was also the first fighter.

“…….”

Luna looked at me with a sad expression.

From her expression, she reads her inner thoughts.

Anyway, it seemed like he wanted to push me and trust me…… It seemed like he couldn’t come to a clear conclusion either.

‘How can I persuade you?’

This is not something that can be convinced by pushing it like [Trust me and go to the market to work].

It is war.

We were invaded.

If I were not careful, I could have lost my life.

In such a situation, even if I pushed him to ‘trust me first’, there was no way he would properly convince me.

In such a life-threatening operation, there was nothing more dangerous than engaging in it without understanding.

When I thought about it, it was clear that the result would be good as it came out like this…… Still, I didn’t want to create even the slightest variable.

Then.

“I understand.”

“Okay. So, what are you going to do? How are you going to deploy soldiers like this to block 8,000 soldiers?”

I spoke cautiously with my eyes closed at Tifa’s words.

“Right now… I can’t tell you in detail.”

“What…? Hey, are you kidding?! Are you saying that-“

“But!”

I roughly cut off Tifa’s words.

Tifa, who was so angry that she was about to rush at me, hesitated for a moment, probably not thinking that I would suddenly come out so strongly.

“I will also stand in the vanguard. Together with Kane, I will bring 1,300 soldiers to intercept. Are you okay with this?”

“That…What is that?”

“I’m very sorry, but my plan must not be revealed to anyone. Even if it’s an ally, I want to proceed with my plan as safely as possible since we are on the edge of a cliff. However, I can only say this and stay in a safe place and buy you all. If you send it to , I think it will definitely not be trusted. So.”

I said, pointing with my hand to the point where the interception team including Kane would head.

“I will go to the vanguard with Kane.”

“Now… Are you serious?”

I looked at Kane and spoke in a more serious tone than ever.

“Mr. Kane. There is no way I would have sent you to a dangerous place. If sending you here was an act of pushing you to die, don’t you think I would have followed you?”

“Well, that’s true.”

“So, please trust me and follow my orders. I will definitely protect Zeeland.”

I immediately looked at Luna and said.

“Master. Please make a decision.”

“…….”

Yes.

No matter how much I was a strategist with 100% intelligence, in the end, it was the monarch’s job to decide whether to follow my words or not.

If Luna doesn’t believe me, what’s the point even if she makes predictions with a 100% accuracy rate?

She listened to me and thought for a moment.

Then she slowly nodded and spoke.

“…For this defense of Zeeland, we will prepare by actively reflecting the opinions of Tactician Swen. Anyone who has any objections, please come forward.”

“Oh, really…! If Luna tells me to do it, I’ll do whatever she tells me, but… Hey, you’ll get better, Trickster. If something goes wrong and Luna dies, your head will fly into my hands, so I know that. Do you understand?”

Tifa looked at me and spoke in a threatening tone, but-

She didn’t sound that scary, perhaps because of her personality, or perhaps because she was convinced that I was right.

“Do whatever you want. However, please strictly follow my instructions when engaging in operations. Please refrain from giving up defense and running out the door with your soldiers.”

“What are you looking at me for? Don’t worry about that.”

“Huh, really…….”

Kane seemed very displeased, but she was not the kind of person who would sabotage her work.

“Now. Tifa, please summon the defense force, and Kane, please organize an interception team. The hour is urgent. Please move quickly.”

“I understand!”

“Okay. Well, I’ll see you later.”

The two people left the castle.

I spoke to Luna, who was left alone.

“Master.”

“……?”

There was something that kept bothering me.

Why was it concluded that 2,000 soldiers should be deployed to defend Zeeland Castle?

Doesn’t having a soldier here mean that there will be a need to use that soldier?

I don’t know what route it took, but there was a possibility of a direct enemy surprise attack.

If they were to come, they would come from the rear, not the front, and there were only a few weak countries similar to us in the rear.

So, I can’t confirm anything – but I felt like there would be quite a difference in preparation whether I said it or not.

I spoke in a low whisper to Luna.

“There is a high possibility that someone will raid this castle. It may be one of the countries in the rear, or it may be a mercenary group hired by the Brans army.”

“…!”

Luna asked, surprised by my words.

“So you organized the castle’s defense force…?”

“Yes.”

“But… If we were to conduct a raid, the number of soldiers would not be that large. Wouldn’t it be better to put the weight on an interceptor team that would deal with 8,000 soldiers?”

“…….”

The moment when I was trying to think about what to answer.

She said, shaking her head slowly.

“…No, I trust you, Swen. It’s okay if you don’t explain. As you said, there’s nothing more dangerous than a plan going wrong.”

Faith, approval.

I have never experienced such one-sided trust in my life.

To be honest, although she ordered her commerce to find her treasure chest – as her tactician, he didn’t show her anything.

Nevertheless, this woman trusted me to this extent.

I am also a human being.

Of course, I wanted to repay the people who believed in me.

“I will definitely come back alive. Make sure you survive.”

“I understand. I will definitely survive. Swen… Please come back alive.”

I slowly left the castle and walked towards the site where an interception team was being formed.

*

Zeland Castle was not that far from Annell Castle, the headquarters of the Brans Army.

Kihara Castle, the nearest territory of Brans County, could be reached in one day at a fast pace.

If you run fast, you can get to the castle gate in an instant, but-

“Reduce your advance speed!”

Kalinz Brans was deliberately slowing down his advance.

The operation he set up this time was the two-dong operation.

At the same time as attacking with 8,000 soldiers at the vanguard, the Garammil Army, one of the forces behind the Lunarien Army, attacks the rear of Zeeland Castle.

The negotiation he was talking about was the negotiation with Garammil County.

Because the Garammil army was very afraid of the Brans army, negotiations did not take long.

It was better to attack at the same time as the Garammil army and advance slowly in order to confuse the Lunarien army.

This operation was beneficial to the Brans army in many ways.

If a large number of soldiers came out to intercept, the castle could be quickly taken over. The Garammil army will subdue the empty castle.

Soldiers who lost their temper would become agitated and their morale would plummet, and clearing out soldiers with low morale was easier than picking up fallen leaves.

On the other hand, if the sit-in protest proceeds without anyone coming to intercept, that would be fine.

Since the pace of advance was slowed down, the Garammil army would inevitably battle the Lunarien army first, and the Brans army could easily occupy the castle when the two forces fought and lost strength.

There is a high probability that the enemy will stage a sit-in.

It did not make sense based on common sense to form an interceptor team with only 3,000 soldiers.

So, it was enough to advance slowly, hoping that the Garammil army would moderately battle the Lunarien army and relieve them of their strength.

‘I think it’s a perfect operation.’

I wondered if I had to go this far to deal with only 3,000 people, but-

Not long ago, Kalinz, who felt the humiliation of having his territory recaptured by Walnut Army soldiers, has been executing a strategy to properly deal with even the weakest opponent by using more than twice the number of troops.

As his abilities did not stand out the most compared to his older brother and his main sister, he did not want to make the same mistake again.

When you think like that.

“I see the enemy!”

“The enemy’s interceptor unit has appeared!”

Voices began to be heard from the front row of the line.

‘Interception team?’

Have they sent an interception team to a place where there are only 3,000 people?

I was briefly surprised by the unexpected number, but nothing changed.

‘It looks like he was excited to urge the name.’

Well, isn’t it really boring if you just eat it raw?

Kalinz Brans shouted in a confident tone.

“All troops, enter combat stance!”

* * *

“That flag…”

“It’s definitely the Brans army’s flag.”

I nodded at Kane’s words.

“I see.”

As expected, it didn’t take that long for the enemy to arrive.

In the first place, Kihara Castle, where I stayed before entering Luna County, was not that far from here.

Considering the distance, it didn’t feel like we arrived a little late.

“Now, what are you going to do now, Mr. Trickster? Are you going to rush in and fight like this?”

“…….”

1,300 People vs. 8,000 People.

In this game, there were many cases in which the battle could be won with this level of engagement ratio.

It was possible to easily slice up soldiers like cake by adding just one SSS-level general.

But right now, the only people present are me and Kane, whose strength is so high that you can’t even joke about it.

‘… ….’

The battle is about to begin.

If things continue like this, you will die.

Unable to return to the original world and not even see the unification of Lunarian Inian.

But.

I was confident again.

My intelligence is 100.

Intellect of 100 is never wrong.

So, we Will definitely win.

Thinking like that – I slowly opened my mouth.

“All army, charge-“

But.

I couldn’t bear to finish saying that.

“Shoot!!!”

Pap-du-duk-duk!

“What, what!”

“Is it an enemy?”

“No, it’s over there!”

As if a messenger from God had appeared-

From somewhere, countless arrows began to rain down on the Brans army.
