I and the camel soldiers who were moving near the beach were moving slowly in line with each other in a dense formation. Even though it was still early in the morning, the distance of view was short due to thick fog. Running in a hurry could have divided the unit into a mass. 

I looked at the east sky, which slowly dawned. 

The sun was against us, and the darkness of dawn and the sea fog were blocking our appearance. And the enemy doesn’t know that we’re coming. No matter how much I think about it, it’s a perfect timing for a surprise. 

But it was never a coincidence. The raid was inevitable because I met and experienced the Duke of Bastian’s fame and past life.

Duke Bastian’s strategic tactics are the same as those of all who dream of becoming commanders. So in my previous life, I had analyzed the Duke’s war performance divided by time zone, and I knew that there would be a brief early morning fog on the beach here for the next two days. 

Of course, if this situation came, it would not matter if it was foggy or not, but anyway, the damage of our attacking allies could have been greatly reduced. 

“The time is right. Follow me as quietly as you can.” 

When Kasim, Nazir, and Bayan heard my order, they almost whispered the contents back. 

Around this time, there was a crackling sound of metal nearby. It sounded like a small crash. I opened my eyes wide while looking toward the sound. An armed soldier who bumped into a camel was looking at us with astonishing eyes. 

He was a Robros soldier. 

“The enemy,·····. Yuck!” 

Soon the soldier’s neck was penetrated by the sword of Nazir and fell down. With a sigh of relief, I moved looking around. But I felt strange. As we move forward, we feel the energy of Mana, which seems to be human, countless times. 

And as I walked further, I could see the outline of the building and the road through the fog. 

Soon I saw two Robros soldiers walking slowly towards us in pairs and immediately grasped the situation. We were already in the enemy camp. 

‘No, what kind of supply fort doesn’t have a wall?’ 

However, it was not the time to be embarrassed. I quickly chased them and cut down the Robros soldiers who ran away. 

“Arrived at the enemy camp! Charge!” 

Kara’s camel soldiers rushed in all at once. They scattered in between and swept away as the Robros soldier saw them. 

I also moved forward.  

“Oh, my gosh!” 

Soldiers of Robros screamed everywhere. With a perfect win from the beginning, we overwhelmingly took over the fortress, driving Robros forces.  

I cut a Lobros soldier who came out of the house with a single knife and ran down a wide boulevard. With a perfect victory expected, I had no way of hiding my nervousness. 

With Robros coming out everywhere, Ramis seemed clear, but the surrounding scenery was never a fortress. I thought about whether I came to another city, but Ramis Village was so remote that it was called the end of the land village that there could not be any other cities or villages nearby. 

Besides, what are these broad boulevards and shops? If there are many such useless spaces, there are many difficulties in building walls these days. These buildings should never be constructed by the Navy of Robros, who had to quickly build a garrison. 

‘Did I fall into a trap?’ 

I was slowly engulfed in anxiety. It seemed absurd that the Duke of Bastian’s troops formed this kind of fortress. This couldn’t be done unless it was a trap to lure us.  

But too many Robros soldiers were being violated by us without any countermeasures. Robros, who is now dying to our Kara’s soldiers, was not enough to give as bait, and this large city was too carefully constructed for a trap. 

Running for a long time like this, I found a wall structure while building. Although it is part of the city, it seems to be a fortress here anyway, considering that it covers part of the city’s outskirts of the city. 

Feeling somewhat relieved, I participated in the battle in earnest. 

“Enemies! Enemies have invaded!” 

At last, the emergency bell rang to announce the invasion. However, many parts of the city were already occupied by our Kara’s army. Robros, who didn’t even have a sergeant, could not have been our opponent, let alone an armor. 

Soon after, white flags rose in each building, and Robros gave up resistance and raised both hands. 

“Don’t kill anyone who doesn’t resist!” 

The battle was heading for a blandly perfect victory. Kara, who was dragging prisoners from all sides, was seen, and now there is little sound of soldiers bumping into each other. 

At that time, I could hear the cry of a man who seemed to be Nazir from afar. 

“We’ve captured Admiral Locke alive! Our victory!” 

The cry soon spread throughout Kara and was heard from all over the city. 

I ran toward Nazir. Admiral Locke was the Marquis, the commander-in-chief of the Robros Navy in the war. In other words, he captured the enemy leader. 

Arriving at the scene, I could see a decent-looking old man being dragged around in his underwear. I got off the horse and approached Nazir, who was leading the old man.  

“Is he Admiral Locke?” 

“Yes, here’s the seal, too.”

Nazir gave the admiral seal as evidence. By the inscription Anton Hafner Locke, it was clearly a seal of Admiral Locke. 

I glared at the old man who seemed to be the Marquis of Locke.

“Is it really Admiral Locke?” 

“I, I am······. Although I am a loser, I hope you will treat me as a noble.” 

Judging from his brazen claim for aristocratic rights, Marquis of Locke certainly seemed to be right. 

“Nazir, where did you catch him?” 

“He was captured at a high-end residence down there.” 

“Go and organize all the documents in that residence and post them to me immediately. And the Marquis of Locke is courteously repossessed.” 

“Yes!”

Nazir led the Marquis of Locke in high spirits. He established the first commanding officer in this battle. It was a part where we could expect a reward that was large enough.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

Soon after the sea fog was slowly lifted, the scenery of the harbor and the vast city center, where hundreds of ships were sailing, came into my eyes. 

I scratched my head as I saw Robros soldiers being dragged around in a rope.  

The surprise was perfect, and it was a complete victory that almost never saw blood. So I should be happy, but I felt an uneasy feeling. The town of Ramis, which was decorated by Robros as a supply base, was showing a panoramic view of the iron-clad fortress I had expected all along the way.

Thanks to this, it was easy to win, but I didn’t understand why Robros decorated the fortress in this wrong form. 

* * *

I left Kara’s report behind and rummaged through Robros’ papers. Fort Ramis was constructed too vulnerable to outside attacks. It was more like a full city while building a wall than a fortress.

If the Duke of Bastian did such a sloppy job, he had to check and move on, meaning there was a reason for it. Otherwise, I could not carry out the next battle because I was nervous. 

And after a while, I found a magic communication specialist that would give me goosebumps. 

‘Magasta City Found. Once we have confirmed that we can go to the Azenka continent by sea, we will soon meet with the mayor to see if we can trade by sea.’ 

I shook my hand holding the communication. 

It goes to the Azenka continent by boat. The story is in line with the fact that the Kingdom of Robros can import various spices and spices produced on the continent of Azenka without having to go through the Great Desert Trade Route. 

At that moment, I drew a world map in my head. It was a fictional map created by testimonies from Eastern and Azenka continents who fled to the continent of Lovros by boat during the era of destruction. 

The entire geographic structure of the world was connected to the Great Desert, with the continents of Prosia to the west, the continents of Azenka to the southeast, and the East to the east. Thus far, specialties have been traded between the continents through the Great Desert trade route. 

But there was actually one more trade route. It was just a boat. Since all continents are attached together, it is natural that the sea is also connected. 

Of course, people’s perception of the world has not reached that point yet, but now there is someone who recognizes it. It was the Duke of Bastian.

And I could recognize it. I saw the Eastern and Azenka continents who fled to the Continent of Prosia after all kinds of hardships in the time of destruction. In other words, as they came to the continent of Prosia, they could go from Prosia to their continent in reverse. 

I summoned Admiral Locke immediately. The Duke of Bastian’s intentions were roughly anticipated, but they needed to be certain. 

Soon as they called Marquis Locke before me, I immediately entered the question. 

“Marquis, what is the Duke of Bastian trying to do?” 

“······.” 

Marquis Locke didn’t open his mouth easily. 

“I’m asking you a question because I have a good idea. You’re trying to open a sea path with other continents, right? To trade by sea.” 

Marquis Locke opened his eyes. 

“How did you know?” 

I waved the communication in front of the Marquis’s face. 

“There’s evidence here. You’ve directed the ship with the magic station to the east, and you’ve reached the continent of Azenka. And he wants to know if it’s a trade? That’s what you’re saying, right? 

“Damn····.” 

“Be honest with me. You didn’t want to attack our Kara, did you? Well, there’s no need to attack. It’s going to be a land that you don’t need.” 

Marquis Locke shook his forehead. He seemed to have hit the nail on the head. 

“Yes, the Duke of Bastian was about to stop your Kara and kill her.

“If we open a sea trade route and remove it from the Great Desert Trade Route, Kara will only become a rural area.” 

“Huh. Besides, the troublesome bandit of the Great Desert will disappear. 

“That’s right.” 

The Desert Bandits live off the top of trade through the Great Desert Trade Route. If the trade route for the Great Desert Trade Route was removed through the maritime trade route, they would disappear as well. 

And the Duke had planned to turn Ramis Village into a trading city, not a fortress. 

The only desert to the east of Ramis Village was the endless desert. Inside, it was a land of death where not only humans but also animals could not easily live. 

Therefore, Ramis had to be a trading city, not just a military fortress. This is the last stop on the long voyage to the Azenka continent. 

No wonder why the Duke had marched the army against Kara even at the expense of the tremendous war before. 

In fact, he had no intention of coming at all. 

The war-torn trade routes can be solved through sea trade routes, and the huge war costs of the long war can be solved as soon as the colonization of the western Great Plains and the southern coastal areas of the desert is completed. 

‘The Duke of Bastian. As the war turned into a vague one, he immediately changed it to a bypass strategy and blew up Kara and the two Great Desert Bandits at the same time.’ 

In fact, Kara had better not fight strategically. As long as we hold on, Robros had no choice but to pay for the sluggish economy and the huge cost of war. 

But the Duke of Bastian tried to take advantage of Kara’s dominance and stop her to death. If we could clear the trade route for the Great Desert by pioneering the maritime trade route, Kara would have been isolated in the middle of the desert and slowly declined with the passage of time. 

But what’s even more absurd is that this has never been said in history I know. the Duke of Bastian captured Kara as planned and took the trade route to the Great Desert Rebellion completely. 

In other words, when the occupation of Kara was not easy, the Duke recalled this strategy that almost changed the history of the world in a moment and immediately put it into practice. It was really a ridiculous greeting. 

However, the Duke of Bastian’s grand strategy was completely derailed by the deployment of Marquis Fabius’ expeditionary forces. When Kara won the battle, she had a chance to come out and attack Ramis. 

If not, I couldn’t have come here. 200,000 troops are paving the way, and they’re constantly pressing us down, so what can we do to get down here to Ramis? Robros will be distracted by the defeat, so he finally came down through that opportunity. 

It was really something to thank King Robros. Kara would have ended without knowing what it was like if the king of Robros had not given up his own opportunity to become the world’s largest power and offered Marquis Fabius’s expeditionary forces.  

I immediately called Kasim. 

“Kasim, you stay here to protect the town of Ramis. And among the prisoners, they classify the sailors and the shipbuilders separately and treat them especially. And when I have time, I’ll put a smart guy next to me to learn navigation and shipbuilding skills.” 

Kasim was embarrassed that the strategy had changed significantly.  

 “Master? Weren’t we building a concentration camp and burning down Fort Ramis and all the ships?” 

“I changed my mind. We have all the ships anchored here in Ramis and the harbor.” 

“But what about the next battle if all of our troops stay here?” 

“We’re going to do something with the Nazir and Bayan troops alone. Anyway, Ramis must be protected. If you take this place away from the enemy, there will be no future for Kara. All right? 

“Yes.” 

I rushed out. At first, I tried to stay for 10 days to clean up the situation and leave, but now that the entire Kasim unit was left, there was no need to do so. I leave Ramis to Kasim and I immediately hit the Duke of Bastian.
