Steel, Explosives, and Spellcasters

Is Magic really just a wish machine? No! In a universe where Magic truly exists, the ultimate nature of Magic must be as simple and aesthetically pleasing as the laws of physics. This is the story of a mass-produced magical war tool who learned the ultimate nature of Magic. But what of it? Just as birds can fly without understanding aerodynamics, magicians can use Magic without grasping its ultimate nature. Learning the ultimate nature of Magic doesn't mean the tool can instantly transform into a great magician. But yearning for knowledge is a human instinct, and curiosity is the primary driving force of human civilization. Even for Magic, which should seemingly defy explanation, humans hope to understand its inherent operational laws. The pursuit of Magic's ultimate nature requires no reason! The story in this book takes place in an era where steel and gunpowder dance together. Here, firearms are on the rise; armor remains the main character; military theory is changing rapidly, with endless innovations in systems and techniques. And this world has something more than ours: Magic. The world is undergoing a profound transformation, and no one can remain detached from it...

Chapter 28_4

In the situation of Revodan, if it were to be surrounded by two large armies, even the old marshal would be facing certain death in command.

Moreover, from the beginning, the old marshal would never fight such a battle.

To win, one must restrain one flank and attack the other, shattering one will make the other too scared to approach.

Right from the start, Winters' plan was to hold back Mont Blanc County and strike hard at Vernge County.

But if he couldn't restrain the garrison troops of Mont Blanc County and they rushed towards Revodan without a care,

Then Winters would have to resort to his backup plan:

Give up Revodan, retreat to the south of St. George River, to Wolf Town, or even further back to the Great Wilderness.

After all, he didn't have much in terms of pots and pans in Revodan, nothing worth grieving over if lost or smashed.

The storages in Revodan had long been emptied. Most of the food was taken away by Bard. Winters had spent all the money.
