...... incompetent.

I say this, but that's my honest impression. I'm sure Sidney and Escalina in the back probably felt the same way.

The enemy is attacking. There are only two choices: to support Karza Castle or to retreat. And it is the duty of the commander-in-chief to make the final decision. He must make that decision as soon as possible. If he fails to do so and consults with a man who has just appeared, it is no doubt that his ability as a commander-in-chief is quite low.

However, if he knew that he is incompetent and asked me to make a decision, I could understand that, but unfortunately, this man is trying to use me to satisfy his own vanity. If he knows that I know that, he is no good.

However, there are still 1,000 troops holed up in the castle of Khaza. We must save their lives first.

As I remained silent, Sama, the son of the commander-in-chief, opened his mouth, perhaps interpreting that I was troubled by the lack of information.

"We are currently supporting Karza Castle with a total force of 20,000 men. In contrast, Nono's army is 5,000 strong. But Eslmo's army of 20,000 is heading this way. So our forces are at a disadvantage in terms of numbers. ...... map."

He ordered his men to bring a map. I thought he was going to say that we would take command, but he wanted me to give my opinion no matter what. Well, that's all right," I muttered to myself as I looked at the map.

The Karza Castle, built in the steep mountains, is a magnificent castle that makes use of a natural defensive position that would be difficult to attack with a large army. According to Sarma's explanation, the castle was further fortified by piling up stones on top of it. This means that the original terrain has been modified by piling up soil.

"The distance from here to the castle of Khaza is..."

"In about five minutes. Turn there, and you will see the castle of Khaza.

Sarma pointed to a large bend in the river. This means that it is just behind the mountain in front of us.

"Well, let's check the site first. We don't have much time.

Okay. Let me show you around.

With that, Sarma started to walk away.

Because of the riverbed, there were many rocks lying all over the place. Sidhi and Escalina are warded in case they hurt their feet. As we start to walk away, there is still no movement in the Safan army.

"I don't see any movement at all.

"......"

Sarma does not react to my words and continues to walk calmly. I continue to speak to him.

Where is the rest of the army of 10,000?

"We are positioned behind the Karza castle, supporting it."

"So, then, in the current state of affairs, Karza Castle would be the front line. If this is the case, isn't it more likely that the castle will be overtaken?"

"......"

Sarma again became silent, probably because of his policy of not answering inconvenient questions. After walking for a while, we saw a castle built on a steep cliff in front of us.

The castle, though small in scale, was made of piled up stones and seemed to be well-protected. I thought to myself, "If stones are piled up on that cliff, the castle will be even more defensible.

If you keep your eyes peeled, you can see some figures on the mountain beyond the castle.

That is the enemy.

"......"

Looking to the left, we see a large number of soldiers camped out on the slope of the mountain. These must be the 10,000 advance troops of the Safan army. Meanwhile, the gate of the castle came into view.

As Sarma approached, the gate opened like an automatic door. There was a heavy thumping sound.

"Come in!

They urge me to go inside. He must be the gatekeeper. Men dressed as soldiers are waiting, and they raise their hands in salute to Sarma and us. They are all very dirty. The intensity of the battle so far can be felt clearly.

The place was made of piled up stones. I guess they must have built this room by piling up stones on the original terrain. The room is quite large for such a room. A resting place for soldiers, perhaps.

Sarma goes up the stairs at the back of the room. He goes up the stairs at a brisk pace, but it is a very steep staircase. I was worried that Sidhi and the others might fall down the stairs, but it seems to be no problem. Sidhi did not seem to be afraid of heights, and Escalina climbed up the stairs with ease. I was terrified because I am afraid of heights, but I couldn't make such an ugly scene in front of the two girls, so I desperately climbed up the stairs.

When I reached the top of the stairs, I found myself in a small room. I could see a door in front of me. Sarma sees us coming up the stairs and opens the door.

"Whoa!"

I couldn't help but let my voice escape. It was because there was a waterfall in front of us. It seemed to be water drawn from the mountain. Passing through a dimly lit passageway, we came to an open space. It seems that the entrance and exit is a secret passage.

In front of us was a large basin of water, also made of stone, filled with water. The water seemed to be constantly flowing, and I wondered if it would not overflow, but I was later told that there was a hole at the bottom.

Escalina scooped up the water and drank it. Sidhi also put his hands on the basin and tried to take a sip of the water. Sarma looked at us with a blank expression, as if he thought we were thirsty.

""Good water.""

The two girls harmonized beautifully. It must be really good water. Even from the back, I could see that the escalina was getting warmer and warmer. They looked at each other and nodded.

Sarma walks away silently. We followed his lead and started to walk away.

He went outside. The room was built like a balcony. I looked down and saw that the cobblestone pavement was beautifully divided into two parts: one part was cobblestone pavement, and the other part was dirt. It seemed that the cobblestone pavement had been newly made by piling up stones. Then, it is clear that this castle, though small in scale, was built by piling up a tremendous number of stones. The empire must have built this fort with a considerable amount of manpower. This means that this is a stronghold that the empire must defend to the death.

From the balcony, we could see a large river flowing in front of us. The river meanders greatly and extends northward in an S-shape from this fortress. Across the river, there was a large area, but it must have been a riverbed, because it was covered with stones, and it seemed to be difficult to move around. It would be difficult to camp there even if we put an army there, and even if we attacked them, we would not be able to move as much as we wanted to because our feet would be caught by the stones.

There is a steep mountain on the right side of the fort. It would be difficult to attack from there. On the other hand, if you look to the left, you will see a gently sloping foothill here, but the Seifund Imperial Army is still there. Suddenly, I saw a low tower-like building, also made of stone, at the edge of the river. It looked like a fortress, but the stones had been broken down and it looked almost unusable. As I guessed, it was that part of the building that the empire was renovating.

Looking at it this way, I see that the renovated fort was built in a good position. If the enemy crosses the river, they can use their flying weapons from this Karza castle and that fort to deal a heavy blow in what is called a crossfire. On the other hand, if we attack that fort, we can take out the enemy's flank by placing archers between the fort and this castle. I now understand why it is said to be impregnable.

Once again, I turn my gaze in the direction of the north. NONO's army is encamped on the mountain across the river. If 20,000 reinforcements arrive there, the enemy will probably attack in full force. To prevent that from happening, 10,000 troops led by that commander-in-chief should take position on the riverbank in front of this castle. .......

I crossed my arms, closed my eyes, and let my thoughts wander. .......
