"Wow! They did it. Looking at the number of columns and their formation, it looks like a one division of the royal army. Well.. at least they didn't send 10,000 as promises," Karl said in an excited tone after seeing the line of troops ready to attack Duke Flora's territory.
"Onii-sama, what are we going to do? With that many, is our ammunition enough to face them?" Chiyuki asked.
"Fufufu.. Chiyuki.. we have spare weapons behind us."
"Behind us?" Chiyuki then faced behind her, it seemed that their rebuilt house had been completed.
"Umm... Onii-sama? Is it just me or is our house getting bigger?"
"Our house is getting bigger because of the additional tools in it, to take care of them, we need to use the tools in there. Oh, call the children for their supplementary lesson. We will teach them the art of fighting against a unit filled with idiots."
Without waiting long, Chiyuki rushed to call the children who were resting after a day of hunting bandits. They sat in a row in front of Karl, a small object in the form of a large monitor magic screen in front of them.
"Ahem, it seems like you are all here, this time I will teach you how to destroy an army that relies on numbers."
"Watch this.." suddenly the monitor magic screen beside Karl came to life. Showing a live broadcast of the troops that had arrived in Duke Flora's territory.
"First, you must give them a warning about the law of the legitimate territory. For example this.."
Karl took a small object, an excited voice could be heard behind them.
"Ahem! Everyone! Please pay attention!"
"Currently, Duke Flora's territory is entering the war training zone, and in front of you is your current training target."
"But.. you only see the theory. For field practice, please do it yourself when you have the opportunity. For starters.. this time the target is a troop unit with several around 500,000 people. Here's the question.. the only troops left in Duke Flora are you and you are required to protect the people who are still in Duke Flora's territory. In conditions like this, what will you do?"
...
...
No answer came out of their mouths. Karl smiled wryly at their innocence in facing the battlefield.
"There are many possible answers, depending on the conditions that are happening. First, observing the number of troops, troop positions, military positions, and troop strength needs to be done. We can see, that there are many of them but no troops use magic. With conditions like this, we can carry out surprise attacks from a distance."
"For that.. we can use the Remi-class to do its job. The Remi-class is equipped with a variety of guided cannon, mortar, and machine guns that can be installed. Some of them have their advantages such as attacks from ground to air, ground to air, or variations of both. This time.. the target of the attack is a large-scale ground attack."
"We can use artillery to do it. However, it is a bit noisy and less efficient for a ridiculous war like this. Artillery is very suitable for putting pressure by destroying enemy defenses. But.. for a ridiculous war like this. Killing their leader can be easily done. Without their leader's control, an army of this size will fall into chaos."
"Mortar Land Attack Fucker or Motherfucker, designed for long-range launch, for all weather conditions, using explosive power, and has a cruising speed below subsonic waves impact. We will use this weapon to destroy the enemy command."
"Now pay attention to this.. look.. even their command can be distinguished by the flags and tents they are carrying. Our target is this.. for that.. we only need to lock it and launch this surprise attack."
Instantly Karl pressed a small button in his hand, and right behind them, the newly built house made a unique sound. The mortar control system installed on the roof of their house launched an air strike aimed at the troops far in front of them.
KABOOOM!!
Because of this sudden attack, the children who witnessed it began to wonder how strong the weapon was to destroy its target object. The magic monitor screen behind Karl showed a fairly large explosion.
Right after the attack, a great panic began to disrupt the battlefield. Some soldiers tried to put out the fire while the horses they brought ran away.
This incident made a new history.
A ridiculous war that occurred between Duke Flora and the royal army.
And.. that war will be recorded in the history of the Flora kingdom as a reminder to future generations of how foolish the narrow-minded nobles were.
[...]
The scent of the remnants of battle was still lingering. The damage that caused the large hole was visible. Right inside the hole, there were the remains of a crushed corpse. In an instant, the short battle resulted in a victory that was beyond common sense.
The battle happened so quickly with the loss of life in the form of enemy commandos. It was a shameful battle that was recorded throughout history. Even though they attacked Duke Flora's territory, there was no damage to Duke Flora's territory.
Information about this was also conveyed to the military leaders of the Flora Kingdom.
This situation made them form a special alliance to fight Duke Flora. The King and Queen of the Flora Kingdom also joined their alliance.
"How could this happen?" shouted one of the generals who attended this meeting.
"More importantly, how can a territory that does not have a military unit be able to repel that many troops?"
"Deploy our magic troop units! If they use magic that we have never seen before. Let's attack them first with our strength!"
"Don't be reckless! We don't know how strong Duke Flora's strength is! Sending troops to the battlefield will only increase casualties on our side. We are lucky this time because our victim is one of the low-ranking Generals."
"That's right, is this what is called a difference in combat experience?"
"New Generals are only filled with theory in their heads. In practice, they can only cry. This time, let me take care of our troops."
"Are you serious, General Buthut?"
"Of course, how many wars do you think I have won?"
"Ah.. about that... I can't do much. You are one of the best Generals of this Kingdom, if you die then this Kingdom will lose its best General because of an attempt at treason."
"Me? Losing to a Duke who is my student? There is no history of a teacher losing to his students. I have my weapon to fight Duke Flora."
"Really? What weapon is that?"
"Do you want to know?"
Suddenly, the door to the room opened. A high-ranking military official of the kingdom entered the room in a hurry.
"Reporting to Your Majesty! We are in a bad situation!" The situation seemed chaotic with this incident.
"Our food warehouse, wheat fields, farms, warships, and food reserves were attacked by someone! Currently, only the noble's food warehouse remains."
"What?!"
"How could that happen?"
"DUKE FLORA!!"
With this surprise attack, the list of losses for the kingdom in this ridiculous war continued to grow.
On the other hand, deep inside Duke Flora's remote command center and above the altitude. A magic drone that was in the air and observing the kingdom's command post launched an unexpected attack.
Several food supplies and military equipment were destroyed. Several vital objects such as the harbor, horse farm, weapons manufacturing building, and training ground were destroyed.
And.. currently, Karl was carrying out a modern-magic attack revolution tactic for children.
"So that's how it is, children, repelling the enemy and ensuring that they do not return with great strength is very easy to do. Vital military objects that are left open like this are very vulnerable to attack and as you can see."
"To make a country or region raise their surrender flag. Starving the people is very effective. A war like this will create new enemies for them. Namely.. us and their people who start fighting them. After the situation is chaotic enough. We just follow their flow."
"Well... I also can't wait to see their reaction."
With this, the war between Duke Flora and the kingdom ended. However, it doesn't mean that the Cold War is no longer happening between the two.
After this, the long cold war between the two began to cool down.
