How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 393 : One More Day

"Sigh... it's really a pity that all the previous city walls were torn down."

Standing before the sand table looking at the war zone's topographical map, Elashia sighed regretfully.

"How wonderful it would be if these walls were still here..."

"Mm... indeed."

Ileina also nodded in agreent.

Since the Holy Kingdom's great catastrophe, the walls originally built in the north to resist the Blood Clan had almost all been destroyed.

This ant Northern Fire now had to engage the Blood Clan in battle on the plains relying on extrely simple fortifications...

"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore."

Pointing at the sand table, Ileina said seriously to Elashia:

"This upcoming battle may be extrely difficult for us... afterward we'll need to rely on you constantly flying and casting spells in the sky to maintain morale."

"You must rember our personnel positions during the battle, and you must also pay attention to changes on the battlefield."

"The enemy isn't stupid. When they see a super-strong support unit capable of aerial flight constantly casting healing spells on our soldiers, they'll definitely target you."

"Flying at three hundred ters above in the sky, the Blood Clan's ground ranged weapons can't hurt you, but the Blood Clan carriers will definitely chase after you."

"Although those disposable vampire bats lack intelligence and won't notice you when there are closer targets around, you must still be careful—never get too close to the carriers, or there will definitely be vampire bats that lock onto you."

"It's fine."

Faced with Ileina's worry, Elashia didn't take it too seriously.

"Don't I also have spells that can strike vampire bats? It won't be very dangerous."

Ileina nodded without directly refuting Elashia.

"Yes... but being careful never hurts."

"You're far too important as the only support unit for overall combat operations. You absolutely cannot have an accident."

"Moreover... I also promised Empress Alexandra that I absolutely won't let anything happen to your safety..."

"Alright, alright... I understand."

Elashia smiled and nodded, interrupting Ileina's words:

"I know... let's talk about your deploynt first. Rather than emphasizing this matter, wouldn't knowing your general layout be safer for ?"

"If I discover any danger, I can just fly directly to the safest place. After all, bats definitely can't fly as fast as ."

"That's true..."

Ileina nodded thoughtfully and said to Elashia:

"Because the Blood Clan has Blood Bat Carriers with extrely large attack ranges, we'll definitely need to actively launch attacks against them."

"But... the Blood Clan has extrely powerful advantages over us in military formations, so we must directly assault the Blood Clan's battle array."

"So... I plan to have the most elite Elasian knight regint form a wedge formation to break through the Blood Clan's military formation."

"Then have other regints follow up... this should be able to cause so impact on the Blood Clan's formation locally."

"After that... I don't have any other ideas."

Ileina smiled bitterly at Elashia:

"After all... our army is basically just assembled guerrilla forces. If I use overly specific strategies in this kind of large-scale battle, they probably won't be able to execute properly... it might even cause confusion in our own ranks."

"At that ti... I should have about fifty thousand soldiers and three thousand Liberators fight alongside the knights as the engagent force, while the remaining Liberators and fifty thousand soldiers serve as reserves, supplenting wherever our forces are depleted."

"Oh..."

Not understanding these terms, Elashia just responded sowhat perfunctorily.

...

"Report!"

Just as Ileina was explaining these details to Elashia, a guard rushed into the command tent.

"The Blood Clan army has appeared about fifty kiloters away in the mountainous area! They're advancing toward us!"

"Good, I understand. You may leave. I'll issue relevant orders shortly."

Ileina nodded steadily.

"Yes, ma'am!"

After saluting Ileina with a sharp "snap," the guard left again.

After the guard departed, Ileina's expression beca sowhat heavy as she turned her gaze back to the sand table.

"Mm... it seems we should encounter the Blood Clan army today."

Putting on her winter coat, Ileina said to Elashia:

"Let's go. Next cos the real war."

...

"Phew..."

Ileina lay on the flying Elashia's back, looking down from hundreds of ters in the sky.

The Northern Fire soldiers all seed extrely tense, but none of them looked back even once.

Because they all knew clearly—there was no retreat.

From the sky, the Northern Fire soldiers looked like a blue wall stretching across the ruins of what had once been the city wall...

Looking at such a scene, Ileina said with so emotion to Elashia:

"Little Shia... how many people do you think will die in this war..."

Hearing Ileina's question, Elashia thought for a mont and said to Ileina:

"Perhaps... there should be at least ten thousand people..."

Although Elashia and Alexandra could save back quite a large number of soldiers, soldiers whose heads were destroyed could never be saved...

"Sigh..."

Ileina let out a long sigh.

"So many lives lost on the battlefield under such extrely difficult conditions—this is all my mother's fault..."

Hearing Ileina's sudden words, Elashia's body stiffened slightly and she didn't respond.

She didn't know what to say...

...

"Princess Ileina has arrived."

"Mm, I see."

Adeline and Caroline, who were inspecting the soldiers' final preparations, noticed Elashia flying in the sky with Ileina behind her.

So they waved at the sky, and seeing them, Elashia descended to their side.

With the great battle imminent, even Caroline, who usually acted quite carefree, beca serious.

Just as Elashia landed on the ground, Caroline stood at attention and saluted Ileina.

"Second War Zone: twenty thousand warriors and one thousand Liberators, ready for action!"

"Mm... I understand."

Ileina nodded steadily.

"What about the Elasian knights?"

Adeline answered formally:

"The Elasian knights are camping in the north under Commander Dorothy's leadership. They will act according to plan once battle begins!"

"Mm... good."

Having confird the Second War Zone's current situation, Ileina nodded again, her expression relaxing slightly.

Looking at the soldiers gripping their weapons tightly as if facing a great enemy, Ileina smiled and asked Caroline and Adeline:

"This is the final battle to liberate the Holy Kingdom... have you thought about what you'll do after we achieve victory in the war?"
