For the last discussion on Tuban capture, various commanders of third division gathered in Ryun Height.Borrowing one of the rooms in viceroyās mansion, we carry out the review of the protocols.
āI wonder, How thick the Tubanās castle gate is.āThe queen of vampires Mereen-senpai put her hand on her face as she tilted her head to a side.Senpai is the first disciple of Teacher and also a master of spirit technique, and has demonstrated her skills in negotiations and strategies but when it comes to battle tactics she is almost like an amateur.āSenpai, remember the castle gate at your place.āāThe castle gate of Bernhainen is just a grill gateā¦āAs an ancient city famous for its scenic beauty, Bernhainen didnāt have any attraction for the demons, so it seems that amount of defense sufficed.If it is the same thickness as Ryun Heightās gate, then there would be no trouble, but itās the city which has continued to develop new technologies as the workshop of Mirarudia.It will not go much easily.
The strength of Mereen-senpai lies on the point that she can make humans her servants easily by turning them into vampires.Or rather, thereās no hope otherwise. Converting the commander of enemy into a vampire and making him betray is the only surefire way to win.The vampires in this world donāt fear sunlight or religious seals, however they can neither fly in the air nor transform. Surprisingly plain.āVaito, didnāt you think of me as useless just now?āāNo, I didnāt?ā\n
āWithout breaking the things like the castle gate, senpai jumping over the castle gateā¦ what was that, yeah āSoul Shakerā, canāt you use that?āThe one said that this, carefreely, is the new disciple Fernel. This jinba race girl seems to have come to city for the first time, now she is in a daze sniffing the smell of window glass.āOriginally that is a technique to dominate in a magic battle. The range of effect is not so wide, and also I canāt use it consecutively.āBesides, I know that there are large crossbows of fixed type are deployed in large quantities on the castle walls of Tuban.If I was hit by the lance like huge arrow in vitals, even if I am a werewolf, I would still die.
āAs expected, the plan have to be like squashing them with skeleton troops.āThe one to say that is our Teacher, the Great Sage Gomoviroa.Teacher, who can summon deceased soldiers infinitely is a moving supply base.That said, leaving aside all other work, she can at most summon a hundred in one day. If we lose a thousand, then Teacher canāt do anything for ten days.As a supreme commander, she canāt only be doing things like replenishing soldiers.
As a matter of fact, the demon army doesnāt have any know-how of siege warfare.Well it would be like that. Until recently they were having little skirmishes only with demon extermination punitive forces of humans.No one has an experience of anything like a siege attack on a fortress town.Well, the same can be said about the human side, there should not be just about anyone who is an expert in castle attack in Mirarudia. So much time has passed since the unification war.
Furthermore, the thing I am most troubled about is a thing common to the demons.That you canāt switch a branch.For example, the jinba race are excellent cavalry, but they canāt dismount even if they rush inside a city. Well they are not particularly mounted, so itās obvious.\nOn the other hand, the bow cavalry that Tuban is proud of, once dismounted can function as bow infantry.In the past when demons continuously lost the wars against humans, this difference had always been the decisive blow.Which reminds me of a game in my previous life, the demon-like unit had low growth rate, restrictions on equipments, less freedom in choosing branches, and other things like that.
In the industrial city Tuban, the main street is wide to bring in materials, but inside the town it seems to be completely jumbled up with various different sized workshops.For the jinba race who canāt make sharp turns, it is a disadvantageous environment.The battle after storming the city would likely to be more bitter.Thatās why we canāt spend too much energy on breaking through the castle gate.
First, the skeleton troops can be considered disposable, they can somehow fight in the narrow places also, but as they are just automatic fighting dolls, they canāt make trivial decisions.They canāt differentiate between citizens and soldiers, canāt understand even if someone surrenders, if we put them in a street fighting, it would become a massacre.Our mission is to capture, neither destruction nor mass murder.
If we call the stone throwing kyojin soldiers from the second division then the castle gate can be easily destroyed, and if we have the ryujin soldiers from first division then the battle inside the city would also be easy, but unfortunately it is not a situation to call either of them.Since most of the powerful demons are generally grouped by their races, it is a headache that I canāt use them flexibly like humans.
My werewolf troops are few in number, and the inujin troops donāt have enough strength. Mereen-senpaiās vampire troops are not very good in direct fights. Besides, each troops have missions in their own occupied territories.It is very distressing that I canāt battle in an ideal situation, but doing something about that is the job of us, the commanders.Then, what should we do.
\nWhile making the preparations for the attack, I vowed as such.
