C214: Battle Of Southwest Tod (Part 2)

Chapter 214: Battle Of Southwest Tod (Part 2)

Reimi's perspective

After I spotted the Attenta supply battalion, I immediately returned to my Regiment. Purposing to attack the enemy, I asked the troops to modify their formation to fit the warfare of this area. Despite desiring to wipe out the enemy battalion. However, my Advisor protested my decision and asked me to ask for Gen. John's approval before deciding to do anything.

"Reimi... I said... no".  "Be advised, do not engage the enemy at all costs".  "Do not engage them... I know, you want to win...".  "But do not engage the enemy...".  "I want to make sure only 'em there". - I knew it, he wasn't allowing me to fight at all... hmmph!

"Hmmm... understood, Sir...".

"Return immediately, Cpt. Reimi".  "Krieg 1 out".  "Pip!". - Later he turned off his call

John did not understand me at all, he was... over-cautious. Forget it... even if he scolded me after this battle, I'd show him he was wrong for doing that. Being confident with my decision, I turned around to glance at WCA the soldiers in my regiment while sitting on my horseback. Before I decided to battle against the supply battalion, I had ordered my regiment to form their fighting formation. This time, the formation was finely formed. To me, now I only need to approach the enemy to ask them for the fight, my commands would do the rest of the entire battle.

"Think carefully, Captain".  "You're against the orders... reconsider it". - No, Advisor

"I'm not a Captain, I haven't got to that title yet... "Knight" is my current rank".  "And I believe in myself... you'll be seeing it soon, Advisor".

"Then at least you must ask for the air support from the B-".

"No need".  "We didn't bring any birds here to send messages".  "Only scouters... but I don't want to fight that cowardly way".  "I'm... a Knight".

I don't know what John's world military warfare and tactics looked like. But in my world, I was a Knight, I'd fight the enemy in the chivalrous way of my family tradition. Advisor was so annoying, maybe I should turn her off if she keeps saying. However... by now the enemy's dots had appeared on her screen, she said that had a total of 250 men. Very easy for me to defeat them all in one strike.

They were still far away, just still beyond 400 meters. The plan would be working soon. I'd approach the enemy battalion and then ask them to fight. After that, I'd return to my Regiment to command the battle, later wipe out all of 'em only in one wave of the cavalry strike.

"Watch your strategy, Captain".  "The enemy may run away if they see your entire Regiment".  "Just hide them at the riverside, if you want to fight, do it wisely". - Tch! I know I know, Advisor!

Maybe she was right at some point. Because my regiment was 10 times larger than the enemy, showing them my entire regiment would make all of them run away before we could open the battle. Losing the prisoners and the war spoils, not worth it at all. Hmmm... my entire regiment was still invisible before the enemy. Because the troops were all behind the plain, waiting for them at the riverside, they hadn't spotted us yet, it was an advantage.

"Alright!".  "Listen up, soldiers".  "I'm gon-".

"I don't support your plan but will try to help ya".  "Don't approach them alone, it's suicide".  "Bring horsemen with you, maybe 25 to 50 for safety, listen to me, Reimi". - Heard it, Advisor!

"Ahem!".  "I'll get there to greet the enemy and ask 'em for a fight".  "Yellow flag now". - Shortly I asked the soldiers to prepare a stick of a yellow flag on my horse - it was a "neutral flag"

In case I approached them from afar, they would shoot me if I was careless for not bringing this flag. Sometimes accidents happened in the war without any signals. Traditionally, our Warsaw warriors - mostly generals, tended to go alone to the enemy troops to greet them before fighting. It could be us or they do the same thing, mostly the side which caused the war would come to greet.

After finishing greeting each other, both sides would head into the battle. In addition, there would be a right, more peaceful way for both sides to do in case they wanted to avoid fighting. The leader of both sides would either be invited or invite their opponent to have a duel. They would be in a duel till one of them accepts to lose or died when the duel went too deadly. After that duel, the lost side would have to obey the winning side's conditions. Such as surrendering or withdrawing from the arena.

To think of eliminating a battalion just because they were the enemy, but they were the supply group. Well, that wasn't worth it to me. Maybe asking them for a duel fight would be a better choice, since the enemies would become prisoners when they lose the duel. All of them would be well treated according to a thing called "Rights for the Prisoners of War" in John's world laws or something, as I remembered.

They would shortly be held for ransom, all of them would be able to go home. However, thinking about the kids they killed in Stansa... no, I must not let my emotions control me anymore. Alright... alright.

Later I returned to look at my horse. Realizing my horse - Hermann had his back strapped to a stick which had a yellow flag which was placed on by the soldiers, I think I should be going now. Observing the enemy from afar, I hope the Goddess would help me when I approach them. Otherwise, they would shoot me to death if they see me coming here with a bunch of horsemen.

"20 Cavalrymen, follow me!".  "The others, stay behind and keep the formation until I return".  "We'll greet the enemy".  "Through the river". - I later asked some horsemen behind me to follow, just for safety

"Go go go!".  "Whinnies!". - Our horses neighed powerfully as we jumped them through the riverside, later stepped on the plain side

Stepping on the plain side, we immediately ran our horses toward the Attenta supply battalion at our highest speed. The enemies were slowly realizing our appearances from afar as I could see from riding my horse right to their position.

"Reimi, rethink what you're doing!".  "You've been compromised, immediately avoid around them and return to your Regiment".  "Later order your men to wipe out them, right now!". - Shut up, Advisor!

"Even if you approach 'em".  "Do not off your horse in any situatio-".  "Pip!". - Seeing her was too annoying, I pressed the power button to turn off her, shortly returned to the rein to sprint my horse

Many guards from the back sides of the carriages could be seen heading out as they were alerted to our existence. Not so long later, they formed a long horizontal line while pointing their long spears toward our incoming horses.

"Keep moving!". - I roared to the horsemen alongside me and kept riding toward the enemy through the danger that was close to me

As I finished my words and returned to looking at the supply battalion, some horsemen from their side were approaching us. Some archers guarding the carriages could be seen aiming at us by using their bows too. Must go through, I believe in myself!

"Haahhhh! Hahhhhhh!".  "Thuds! Thuds! Thuds! Thuds!". - I was startled when the Attenta horsemen were about to reach me... I meant, they lowered their long spears and diverted, returning to their side just in time

Otherwise... I could've...!

"Everyone, move up!". - Forgetting what I had gone through, I ordered the horsemen to approach the enemy supply battalion

I kept riding my horse till I and my men approached the Attenta supply battalion completely. Despite seeing the "neutral flag" strapped on my horse, the spearmen kept raising their weapons toward me... still very cautious, huh?

"Speak... who the hell are ya?!". - The spearmen and the archers kept pointing their weapons at me as I was moving along their carriage lines to find their leader

"I'm Knight Reimi Frieden - the servant of Shera Sonne - the Crown Princess of Warsaw Kingdom".  "You people are our hostiles... we spotted you so we came here". - Moving around them alongside my horsemen, I slowly introduced myself before the hostile

"Our troops are over the river over there...".  "With our current power, we can wipe out all of you...".  "But I offer y'all a duel... I came here, purposing only that reason". - While speaking to the enemies, I glanced around, trying to find their leader

By now, the enemy soldiers had all lowered their weapons while keeping their serious faces to glance at us. Somehow I spotted some men in this supply group who looked like mercenaries... they were peeking at my body, seemed very thirsty. Tch... I disgust those dirty men, they were lucky when I decided to leave them alive, I think. Looking around without seeing their leader, my feet dismounted and I walked around the place, kept glancing around.

"Heh heh... heh... woman...". - Of course, I also kept my distance from the enemy, the WCA horsemen also guarded me with their high cautiousness toward the hostiles around them

"I want to see your leader!".  "Where's your leader?!". - I yelled loudly, asking the enemy to show out their leader

"Heh heh... nice toy...".  "Here, I am...". - All of sudden, a white man came out from the carriage behind me, he claimed himself to be the Commander while approaching me... alright

This man wore a black metal armor and behind it was another blue tunic. His hair was dark brown, wearing a black metal helmet to cover his face. I could only see his face entirely when he opened his head's protector plate. He was armed with a heavy thing that looked like a long metal club on his left side belt, and this man was armed with a metal shield, he was a bit... bulk.

"You're their head?".

"Yeah... a duel, huh?". - This man glanced at my breasts or something while speaking to me, this scumbag

"Tch...".  "Nod...".

"Alright, over there has a space for us, woman...".  "What's your name, huh?".  "Rei, Reiki or somethi-".

"Reimi Frieden!".

"Alright...". - The man later turned around and headed to an empty ground on the east side which had no one, as if he accepted having the duel from the start

I followed the man to the empty ground with my cautiousness. We shortly stopped and stood oppositely, away from each other about 10 meters or something. When both of us were intending to talk before dueling, Attenta soldiers around us started choosing places to sit. Seemed like these men were waiting for the duel, even my horsemen.

"So... tell me your name again".  "Rei... or something?".

"I'm Reimi Frieden - Warsaw Kingdom - the servant of Shera Sonne - the Crown Princess".

"You nobles have fucking long names...".  "Stop speaking that formal, you shit...". - Finished talking, he drew out his metal club and swung it around lightly as if to stretch... or to warm up before the duel

"Your name, warrior".

"Eh?". - The man asked me

"Your name...".  "Even if you're a commoner or a noble, you must have one...".  "Knights fight alongside their chivalrous spirit... every enemy's name will be remembered honorably...".  "Now say it".

"Kharavni - the Dark Wolf...".

"Huh?".  "Say again".

"How insolent you're when you don't know me...".  "My name is very known in the arena, even the King hired me to work for him...". - Attenta King hired this man to fight as his mercenary, eh?

"Stop talking too much, you fucking woman...".  "I don't know any shit about fighting tradition stuff of yours... tell your demand quick". 

"Slashes...".  "I want prisoners if you lose the fight...". - Drawing my magic sword out and pointed it to Kharavni

"Then... hmmm...".  "I also want prisoners if I win... especially women... maybe... you'll join too, heh...". - Bastard, I'll surely kill ya! Stop glancing at my breasts while saying those dirty words!

After finishing speaking to Kharavni, both of us formed our fighting stances while staring at each other. Slowly step by step, we approached closer to each other while analyzing the other's attack ways and directions, I must think well. Kharavni pulled down his face protector while waving his metal club around. That blunt weapon was very effective in destroying the metal armor, I must not let myself get smashed by it.

Observing Kharavni's movement, I was now trying to find the weak spots in his body to finish him. Honestly, seeing a scumbag like this made me pissed off a lot... causing some fatal wounds in his body was enough for the punishment I wanted. Though... his armor was quite armored, could not see an exposed part. In every armor, some weak body parts could be exposed while fighting. Those parts could also be attacked if I use different types of skills, they were: Armpits, eyes, the neck, the groin, etc...

"Hah...!".  "Don't play dirty, lady... let me do that instead".

"I won't!". - Maybe he was speaking about my magic sword - bringing this kind of weapon was unallowed in the duel, since magic was prohibited in the traditional way of fighting

We shortly approached each other while I pulled out a metal shield from my back, purposing to defend myself. Later I got to him with the metal shield to cover my body. Currently, both of us were away from each other about less than 3 meters but hadn't made an opening strike yet.

"C'mon, lady... get in, quick". - He was tricking me, the one who strikes first is likely to lose the entire duel since their moves get exposed

"C'mon, get in! You motherfucker! Get in, hah!".  "Come on, want to get me, hah!? Come in, come in!". - Now he was yelling at me wildly while showing his aggressive strikes with his club, to scare me

"Hmmm...". - I slowly used my shield to cover my head while stepping toward him, holding my sword tightly, squeezing hard, attempting to risk a plan

"Beat her! Beat her!".  "Yeah! Yeah! Fuck her, let her know who is the boss, brother!".  "Uaaaaaaah! Let's go!".  "We'll be having fun with her, c'mon!".  "Finish her quick!". - When I was approaching the man while covering my body, the enemy's war cries could be seen yelling around... I must be focused at all costs!

"Ahhh!".  "Slams!". - A big slam stroke to my shield, I managed to take the impact and then leaned my body out, attempting to strike the man

"Arrrghh!".  "Slashes!". - I swung my sword to his right side neck, but failed since the armor and the plates surrounding his neck had protected him

"Arrrrrggghhhhhhhhh!". - All of sudden, when I was about to swing my sword up to hit his left armpit, my belly felt very hurt, like was kicked

"Urrrrrgggghhhh!". - Later I was truly kicked from aside, falling on the ground, near the man about 5 meters

"What an old style...".  "You think you can stop me, hah! Let me show you how man I am, woman!". - The man later sprinted toward me, his armor echoing heavily when I was trying to get up from being kicked

"Slams!".  "Slams!".  "Urrrgh!". - Two more slams from the metal club, I used both of my hands to hold the shield, covering my body by using almost all of my power

"Men do not need to fight by all of their power, but you do!".  "That's the difference, woman! Surrender and submit me, hahahaha!".

"Urrrrrgggghhhh!".  "Slams! Slams! Slams! Slams! Slams!". - I couldn't take it anymore, the strikes kept slamming down while my body was lowering slowly because of their great impacts

"Yarrrrghhhhhhhhhh!".  "Slams! Slams! Slams! Slams!". - I risked shoving him with my metal shield, later succeeded so I smashed his face by using the shield, though it didn't make any progress

"Urrrgh!". - Seeing beating him with my shield was useless, I kicked his crotch 'cause that area wasn't armored much, it was also a weak spot for men

"Arrrrrggghhhhhhhhh! Fuck!".  "You bitch, arrrrgh!". - He was in pain when I kicked his crotch, later I took the momentum and ran away

Running away from him, I managed to retake my sword - which I accidentally dropped when I fell. Later Kharavni returned to normal with his heavy breath sounding while holding tightly to his club. Maybe that was very hurt... he was still holding his crotch as if to protect it. Seeing he was losing his momentum, I grabbed my sword's blade, sprinting toward him. Now attempting to cut his armpit when I lower my body while running through him.

"You drop your shield!".  "Die, bitch! Die die die!". - All of sudden, he slammed his club down while I was running toward him, must block it!

"Keng!". - Maybe I was lucky, my sword's blade managed to block his strike just in time

"Yarrrgggghhhhh!". - I was confident with my strength despite being a woman, I was born to be stronger than the ones of my gender so that was my advantage

"Urrghhhh!". - Seeing I couldn't push his club back, I jumped back a bit while rotating my sword, holding its blade while raising its handle above, toward Kharavni

This sword technique of our Warsaw Knights was called "Half-swording". We rotate our sword and hold its blade, while raising its grip to beat the enemy, very effective in destroying the heavy armor. Blunt weapons were very effective in destroying metal armor by tearing them apart. By the way, this time I'd shock his brain out by smashing his head by using all of my force, I must victory!

"Yarrrrghhhhhhhhhh!".  "Slams! Slams! Slams! Slams!". - I risked my life and charged at him, beating his head by using the sword's grip, some strikes missed but he was being beaten, that w-

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!". - Kharavni suddenly grabbed my sword and snatched it away, he also slammed his club at me, I managed to block it by using my left hand

"Arrrrghhh...! Urrrrrgggghh!". - Seeing my weapon had been snatched away while my opponent was still standing, strong and stable, I managed to step back or he would have smashed me apart

"Shit...".  "Urrrrrggggh!". - While my left hand was in pain, I tried to turn around, returning to my shield

"You think you can stop me?!". - I was scared when I heard the heavy echoing sounds of his heavy armor, that bulk man was approaching me!

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!". - My back was slammed from behind by that club, luckily it wasn't having any spikes on its surface or my armor's back could have been penetrated

"Urrrrrgggghhhh!". - I was slammed so I fell to the ground, but kept trying to crawl back to grab my shield, it was not far from here!

"Urrrrrgggghhhh!". - Kharavni all of sudden, used his leg to press on my back

"You haven't seen the difference between us, have you...".  "How stupid you are! You used almost all of your power while I just used a little of mine, that's the harsh difference!".  "Women should be staying home and serving men, you're fated to get on that road, now surrender!". - Stop insulting me... I just need to cut your weak spots... then your blood will flow!

"Slams!".  "Arrrrrggghhhhh!". - He suddenly slammed his club down on my back again, this time was more painful!

"Surrender!".  "We're naturally stronger".  "Women should never fight men... instead, fight in bed... hahahahahahahahaha!". - Kharavni later laughed while pointing his eyes at his Attenta soldiers

"Hahahahahahahahaha!".  "Fuck her! Let's fuck her, man!".  "Step the fuck out, you fucking shit! She lost the fight!".  "Get out, get out!".  "Huh?! Want to fight, huh?!". - The Attenta guards around me kept trying to approach, luckily the WCA horsemen I brought with had protected me by blocking their way

"Surrender... and you will have the right to live as my slave... surrender!".  "No, huh? I love strong women... I'll break them apart, it's so exciting to see how you'll submit me soon".  "Women... show your face...". - I was quite exhausted, but Kharavni was still very energetic, he removed my metal helmet to see my face

"Such a beautiful face for me to dirty you... good... good...".  "When my rod covers your eyes, you will beg for it, thirst for me and my men...".  "Heh... heh... heh... let our fun time begin here, shall we... Rei?". - Later he grabbed my hair and pulled me up, insulting me

"Spits!". - I spat at him

"Urrrrrgggghhhh!".  "Oh, sorry... accident... such a pity". - He wiped the spit away and slammed his head which was now still wearing the helmet at me, making me bleed in my nose

"I will train you... to become my slave soon... very soon".  "When that time comes... you'll be asking, thirsting for the strong, the breed like me here... to carry my blood...".

"Follow your instinct! Become a woman who lusts for the strong like me, do it!".

"Arrrrrggghhhhhhhhh!". - I tried to charge my head at his neck, trying to grab him but failed

"Urrrrrgggghhhh! Urrrrrgggghhhh! Urrrrrgggghh! Urrrrrggggh!". - Seeing that was useless, I shook my body while trying to beat his chest, later managed to spot a holster in his chest which was holding a dagger

"Yarrrrghhhhhhhhhh!". - I tried to reach for the dagger and succeeded, later I pulled it out and made him surprised

"Bitch, stop right there!".  "Urrrrrgggghhhh! I said stop! Or you will die!".  "Urrrrrgggghhhh! My fucking wrist! My fucking wrist!". - I kept trying to cut his wrist - part of his hand which was grabbing my hair

"Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash! Slash!". - The dagger I held kept slashing to his gauntlet's surface, hoping it hit the wrist which was also an exposed part, please help me!

"I say stop!".  "Punches!". - Suddenly he punched my face, I felt very hazy but ignored it, kept swinging the dagger

"Arrrrghhh!". - All of sudden, his hand - from the wrist side suddenly bled, he was in pain so he dropped me

"Holy fucking shit!".  "The table's been turned!".  "What the fuck!".  "Hey hey hey hey hey! Don't fucking stop me!".  "Get out of my way, quick!". - The Attenta soldiers who were watching the duel suddenly got in to stop, but later were blocked by the WCA horsemen

"Bitch, you're dead!".  "You're dead, you hear me?! Surrender now or fucking die!". - Kharavni was very mad since I cut his wrist, I shortly threw the dagger back to him but it didn't penetrate anything, not even a wound to him

"Yarrrrghhhhhhhhhh!".  "You're fucking dead!". - Suddenly, he grabbed his club and chased me, I was exhausted but managed to run a bit

"Get back here!". - While running away from that bulk man, I managed to see my magic sword - which was now on the ground near him

"Yarrrrghhhhhhhhhhhhhh!". - I ran back and faced him, later he slammed his club down but I managed to slip out of him, later I rolled while picking up my magic sword

"Your face will not be recognized anymore! I'll fucking break it!".  "Now die!". - He later raised his metal club highly, I squeezed my sword hard while activating the sword's magic feature

My sword's grip, down to its round pommel shortly glowed blue - meant the magic had been casted. When he was about to slam his club down, my sword's blade glowed blue, shining and was waiting for the target to be slashed.

"Yarrrrghhhhhhhhhh!". - I roared as strongly as possible while swinging my sword at him, so did he

"Ahhhh! Ahhhh! Ahhhh! Ahhhhh! Ahhh! Ahhhh Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!". - Both of his hands shortly flew away bloodily when his blood was spurting around me, the blue had done this terrible damage, this bastard was screaming in pain, non-stop

"Ahhh! Ahhhh! Ahhhh! Ahhhh!".  "Ahhh! Ahhhh! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!". - Watching that terrible scene, I closed my eyes and lowered my sword when his blood kept spurting at me

And yet... his screams were like coming out from hell. Now my face was fully covered in his blood, must be taking a lot of time to wipe all of it out. His screams kept sounding till they were still unintelligible sounds as if he was dying because of blood loss. As I heard something fall on the ground, I was pleased... when he died... that must be very painful, imagine if it happened to me... so terrible!

"Urrrrrgggghh!". - I lost my balance a bit after using the magic on the sword - this magic sword absorbed my magic power very much though the time of using it was short

Slowly I turned off the magic on the sword and put it back on my scabbard to end the duel completely. Later I used my palm to clean the blood on my face, trying to stay calm while wiping the thing out. Shortly after finishing it, I turned behind to avoid seeing his corpse. Then... I opened my eyes... later realized around me were the surprised enemy soldiers and the coldness of the WCA horsemen protecting me.

I don't know what my Regiment's soldiers had gone through since they were still in the command under Shizuka Hatano. But as I know from this time, they had seen worsen things... not all of 'em, but most of them in my regiment had seen it worsen. The WCA horsemen were now on the horseback, surrounding me to protect me from the Attenta guards. Though... they seemed like didn't have much courage to face me. I meant... Attenta guards were all terrified of me by now, I think so.

Their faces were all scared and bewildered. Every walk of mine, passing them without facing a threat or any insults from the enemies. Horsemen kept following me as usual, I was glanced at by the hostiles - who were looking at me with their terrified after seeing the previous deadly duel... sigh!

Shortly I turned around to walk back to Kharavni's position. I didn't mean to return there but just simply got there to pick up my shield. Every time I spotted his corpse, I looked away while heading to my metal shield, which was on the ground. Later I picked it up and wore it, strapped it to my back tightly. I also noticed my dropped metal helmet on the ground, I took it and wore it.

Finishing everything, my hands wiped more blood out once again... still wet... hot and also... itching my face.

I rushed to my horse to take a cloth out and started wiping out the blood. While wiping my face, I slowly walked behind my WCA horsemen while the enemies before me were stepping away to let me get through every one of 'em. The Commander of the Attenta supply battalion had died currently. Now I only need to take all the prisoners to end this scouting mission.

"Hmmm...".  "Hmmmm...". - They all went silent, maybe asking them for surrender was a good decision this time

"Who is...".  "Who's your second in command?". - I walked along the road while asking the enemy... but heard no reply

"This man is dead... tell me...".  "Who's your second in command?".

A long silence kept appearing after my voice was sounded. The Attenta soldiers were all staring at each other as if to excuse, some of them even showed their afraid as I glanced at them. Seemed like no one of 'em would ever try to open their mouth, I think so.

The WCA horsemen and I walked along the road while glancing at the enemy soldiers, waiting for their answer. After a short walk, I stopped while looking around, trying to wait for their answer... patiently.

"I say again... who... is your second in command...?". - Seeing they were not willing to say out, I made my voice colder to ask them

Surprisingly, after a minute since my voice sounded, those hostiles suddenly pushed a young soldier from their position to me. Seeing the young soldier, I approached him while spotting he was shaking, what a poor boy. "This one is surely a victim, just a substitute", I thought it. But honestly, if I was right... then this supply battalion did not have a second leader.

"You're the second in command?".

"Nod! Nod!". - His one must be in the age of 15 or 16, he must have come from a poor family of the Kingdom, they mostly end up enlisted... must've been drafted

"Your leader has now died under my hands".  " I demand the surrender from your battalion, become our prisoners, you hear that?".

"Nod! Nod!".

"All of you must disarm yourselves and be brought back to Veta castle".  "In there, y'all will be well treated according to the rights of POWs, I meant... the prisoners of war".  "Will be enough fed and well treated, well medical care and etc...".  "When someone on your side, like a Lord, or someone who has enough money to ransom you all...".  "Then all of you will be released to return to your family, that's the deal".

"Nod...". - The young soldier was now still shaking but at least I saw him calmer than the previous time

"Now... order 'em to disarm". - I ordered the young soldier to call his men to disarm, he only nodded and walked back to them

That young man approached his men and asked them to surrender. The Attenta soldiers, from the spearmen, archers to the horsemen slowly gathered in a side of the ground to drop their weapons down to surrender. Instead of interfering with the progress, I and my men stood still while observing the Attenta soldiers from afar. They slowly dropped their weapons to that side, some of 'em even removed their helmets and put them there, later lined up.

I kept observing them while noticing some Attenta soldiers seemed to be against their comrades. Some of them were not willing to drop their weapons but talked to their men as if they were up to something. Not good at all.

"Sir". - Some WCA horsemen asked me

"Nod!". - As I nodded, those men approached the enemy to ask them to disarm

The number of this supply battalion was 250 so the disarming progress would take a while according to me. More and more Attenta soldiers were surrendering, they were one by one dropping their weapons and equipment and then headed to line up. They were all waiting to be captured as the disarming was finished.

Seeing the progress was going quite well, I was pleased to see it successful. Despite finishing the mission against John's order, I'd make sure to make him proud of me when I return, would be very soon. While waiting for the progress to get finished, I glanced at the enemy's carriages which were storing goods such as rations and weapons. Maybe I should make those carriages to be war spoils, using them to assist my side's needs.

Maybe I should call out the entire regiment to get here by now, it was the time. Shortly I raised my hand and a WCA horseman rode toward me to take the order, must do it quickly.

"Call the Regiment to rally up". "We'll be going home".

"Roger, Sir". - The soldier shortly left the scene and then rode his horse back to the riverside, purposing to order my Regiment to get here

I stopped glancing at that horseman and returned to look at the surrendered Attenta soldiers. Shortly realized they were staring at something in the sky with their confusion and curiosity, I also looked up to know what that was... wait!

"What the hell is that?!". - Those Attenta soldiers yelled in panic

I could see a bunch of big brown creatures in the sky that looked like eagle soldiers of Beastmen Army. They were flying with their formation horizontally in a V line, while their yellow spiked feet held things like wooden logs or big stones. Surrounded by my curiosity, I looked in their flight direction. Later spotted them flying to the far east side of the plain, lowering their bodies and dropping those things, later flew straight up and got away, to the north.

"What the hell was that?!". - Those soldiers yelled in panic

"Sir! Sir! Sir!". - All of sudden, some WCA horsemen from the riverside called me while sprinting their horses toward me

I waited till they arrived and then approached the horsemen. They seemed to be in rush or something, they were gasping, which was odd.

"What's wrong?".

"New intel from our ally, Sir!". "An enemy's unit got away from theirs from the southeast front, they're heading here, not so far!".

"How many of 'em?!".

"More than half of the regiment, Sir!". "2.000 of them, I think!". - What?!

"Arrrrrggghhhhhhhhh!". - All of sudden, the surrendered enemies started running away, some of them were running to the weapons to pick them up, not good!

"Spurt! Spurt! Spurt! Spurt!". - Some WCA horsemen started using their bows to shoot at the running hostiles

"Leave the runners! We'll return to defend, on me!". - I yelled at the horsemen, telling them to return to the regiment

Finished ordering them, I jumped on my horse - Hermann and grabbed the rein, later moved back to the riverside. While returning, many horsemen of the other enemy group could be seen heading here. Our ally side was trying to wipe out the hostiles by using their air force, but they would reach my regiment for sure!

"Advisor, what happened?!". "Why didn't you report this to me from the start?! Answer me, Advisor!". - I scolded this device while going back to my regiment... wait a minute... I had turned off her earlier

"Shit!".
