Early in the morning of the day after the eting with Rafa Grandek.
There was movent among the Fox people who were deployed in front of the narrow fortress.
The enemy line, which had been three units of 5,000 n lined up side by side, was now four units of 10,000 n lined up side by side.
Behind them, two units of 10,000 n lined up vertically, and two units of 1,000 n took up position in the rear, a short distance away from the front line.
Commanding the four enemy units lined up horizontally in front of the fort is the unit of "Malbus Grandek," which is in the rear.
Behind Malbus, the troops commanded by Rafa are in reserve.
And at the extre rear, lined up vertically in a thousand-man line, are the camps of Elba and Gareth.
The Grandeks have deployed the forces of Gareth and Elba, which they had been saving, in the front battle in order to bring down the narrow fortress.
They probably intend to settle this battle today.
When Aria and her group's aerial reconnaissance brought this information to our attention, my father and I felt a sense of relief.
The current movent and the lineup of the enemy positions were the "request" we had made to Rafa at the eting, and it was our goal.
And we imdiately made our next move.
The enemy force of perhaps 60,000 troops lined up in front of the narrow fortress. We stood in a position where we could be seen by them, myself, my father, and Amon.
Amidst the gasps and groans of the Foxn warriors, Amon leapt out of the way.
"I am the son of Gareth Grandek, the current chief of the Foxn. I am Amon Grandek."
As he announced his na, the warriors began to show signs of confusion.
"Everyone, please listen to . It was not the Bardia family that tried to assassinate . It was my father Gareth and my brother Elba.
Amon then explained in a loud voice how the war between the Foxes and the Bardians had started, and said that the tyranny and oppression of the Grandeks must not be allowed to continue.
"I, Amon Grandek, will rise up against the Bardia family with the help of the Bardia family. With the help of the Bardia family, I will defeat Gareth Grandek for the future of the Fox people and beco the new tribal chief. If any of you support my resolution, put down your weapons and walk away from this place.
"You have heard it all. We, the House of Bardia, support the determination of the great Amon Grandek. Those who do not wish to fight, back down."
As Father's words echoed through the enemy lines, the foxn warriors began to look puzzled, unsure of what to do.
But then, from behind the enemy lines, a loud voice rang out, "Don't be dismayed.
Have you already forgotten what my father Gareth and my brother Elba told you? My brother Amon is dead. Whoever stands there is nothing but a despicable impostor prepared by the House of Bardia. Now, my brothers, is the ti to avenge Amon and free our people from slavery.
The puzzled warriors ca to their senses and looked at us with hatred in their eyes.
But we don't care.
Our purpose has already been accomplished.
"The one who shouted the loudest was my brother Malbus."
"I see. Thank you for telling ."
Just as Amon was giving an earful, I saw a "wolfsbane" rising from the enemy lines in the distance.
At the sa ti, the warriors of the Foxn tribe one after the other shouted a battle cry and began to advance toward the fort.
The battle for the narrow fortress was about to begin.
But if those warriors think that this fort is the sa as it was yesterday, they are mistaken.
They have prepared a system during the night that no large army can easily defeat.
I activated my communication magic while moving with my father and the others to prepare for their next move.
Aria, tell the battle situation as seen from the sky.
"Yes, please. The enemy is working hard to climb up the hill that Kahlua and his group built. But they seem to be in a hurry because of the arrows and magic flying from the fort."
"I understand. It seems that everything is going according to plan without any problems."
"Yes, I know. But, you're terrible at thinking, aren't you, big brother?"
I tilted my head at the exasperated voice I heard.
"Yes, why?"
"Because you'd have to walk uphill through the angle and line of fire to get a shot from the fort. Besides, even if you do your best to climb uphill, the 'empty moat' and 'bridge' will suddenly spread out between your eyes, you know? Big brother, you are definitely not a good judge of character."
"'It's a contingency now, you know. I'll take that as a complint."
"What? It's weird. Ah, the enemy is falling into the moat. Wow, that hurts!"
Aria is just watching from high in the sky, and I am just talking to her as we move around, so I am not witnessing the scene firsthand.
The scene in front of the fort must have been a hellish scene.
From a distance, the front of the fort looks the sa as it did the day before.
However, the construction of the Second Order has turned the flat road into an uphill slope, making it difficult for walkers to see what lies ahead.
Moreover, the arrows and magic shots fired from the fort are calculated to pass through.
Even after struggling uphill, "empty moats" and "bridges" suddenly appear, which are a first-ti-killer.
These chanisms make the fort stronger.
And it should buy ti.
"Oh! Big brother. The whole enemy is coming forward more and more. I get the feeling that they are trying to push us outnumbered."
"I understand. I'll send out the next instructions to everyone right away."
'All right".
I finished the communication with Aria, and then I sent instructions through Salvia to the children of the Second Order who could use "water attribute magic".
Soon after, the sound of violent water noise begins to roar from the direction of the front of the fort.
"Aria, let's start the mission."
'I understand, big brother. Then we will all go at once."
After a short pause, her voice echoes in my mind again.
'Sentinel. Long range attack!"
A flash of light ca from the white clouds drifting in the sky and fell to the ground with a roar.
It was exactly like a "lightning strike.'
The lightning did not strike once, but struck the ground several tis in succession.
Moreover, they struck the Fox tribe's "general" with precision.
It is a frightening sight. Just looking at it sends chills down my back.
"If Father appreciates it that way, then this 'strategy against large armies' has been a success."
The fact is that even a large army that boasts overwhelming military power has its weaknesses.
These are the chain of command and the communication of information.
Generally speaking, the ideal number of people that can be effectively managed is five to eight.
If one person tries to manage too many people, orders will not be delivered, and command and managent will be hampered.
So how do they manage a large army? The answer is surprisingly simple.
First, a person is decided who will manage five to eight warriors at the end of the army.
Next, the general who manages them is decided ......, and a "pyramid-shaped organization" is created to make managent more efficient.
But what happens if the managers can no longer function? The answer is simple.
The chain of command will break down, information will not be communicated, and the large army will not be able to function properly.
In fact, the larger the army, the more nurous it is, the more fatal a disruption in the chain of command can be.
On the battlefield in front of the narrow fortress, the generals in command were being preyed upon one after another by the "magic spear bow sentinels" that Aria and his n were launching from the sky.
Even from a distance, I could see that the enemy lines, which had lost their general, were in chaos and their ranks were breaking up.
In a short ti, the Grandek family's chain of command will be disbanded, and the large army will be reduced to an unorganized "ragtag band of rabble."
Mm-hmm. It is certain that things are progressing smoothly, but we must not let our guard down. We, too, must move quickly.
"Yes, indeed. I'll instruct them to make their next move."
I said and activated the communication magic.
Salvia. Let's move on to the next phase of the operation. "
"I understand you, . I will imdiately inform the mbers of the special forces who are waiting at the fortress."
Shortly after the communication ended, there was a new movent at the fortress.
