　As I admired Fleur, Serafina stood blocking the map.

"Master, this is my room. Do you know that?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be so blunt. I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

"That's not what I meant. ....... If it's a military meeting, I think Fleur's room would be better."

　Serafina glanced at Raviara.

"Yes, Raviara, I think it would be good for you to do so as well. ......"

　Raviara said, also with a downcast look on her face.

　Looking at their faces, I guessed their intention.

　If I, the owner of the castle, am going to a woman's room in the castle, then that's what I'm going to do.

"I'm very tired of talking too long, and I'd like to take the rest of the day off. I don't know what's going on in the province of Nagouri, shouldn't I talk to Fleur?"

　Serafina's face looked sad, even though she said so with her mouth.

　Probably, Seraphina herself had chosen Fleur as my wife. I had not kept an additional chambermaid for the sake of Seraphina and Raviara.

"If it is not too much trouble for Fleur, I would like to ask you a few more questions.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I have no objection.

　Fleur replied quietly, as if by example of a noble princess.

"Then let's talk a little more about where we should attack.

　He moved around the room and asked one more question.

"Am I correct in assuming that your brother knows about this?　I don't want to offend your brother in any way."

"I told you before we separated that I had no reason to object to your marrying into the Count's family. I have also asked the Count's wife about the night-night stand.

"Well, let's fall for Serafina's trick, shall we?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I held Fleur in my arms.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I soon discovered that Fleur was devoted and healthy. She must have been born to a small lord and had thought long and hard about how to protect her family's lands.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Fleur, the House of Uige will be safe as long as you follow me. I promise you that."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes, please take good care of my family.

　He must have lived for many years thinking that the fate of his family rested on his little shoulders. Fleur's expression is a little hard.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I put my hand on her cheek.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"You should look more happy. You may think of yourself as a princess in exile, but there is no one here who would blame you for smiling."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thank you. I haven't heard such kind words from you in many years. ......"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Fleur laughed with a slightly awkward expression on her face, perhaps a little less anxious than she had been in the past.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Yes, you're cute that way."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I stroked Fleur's hair and held her close to my chest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A few days later, I made Fleur my official concubine.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I was the first to do so.

　The plan to attack the province of Nagouri is ready.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"First, we will take the fortress of Saura deep inside the enemy territory with an advance force. It is a valley land with mountains looming over it. We will have a decisive battle near there."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I sent out the order for conscription to the whole province, and even before the troops were assembled, we headed north with only the SS and a few others.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On the way, we entered the castle of Kitagaoka, which was ruled by Noen. This is the northernmost point of my province.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I see that you have a very small number of people. ....... I thought that since you were going to attack a neighboring prefecture, you would come with your entire army. ......

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Noen seemed a little taken aback.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"They're going to use this place as a base for their army. We don't need a large army to take down a small fort. If we take our time, they will send out a rearguard.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　That's where a lot of troops come in. First of all, the fort must be taken down.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Meisel Wujer, the second-in-command of Kitagaoka Castle, was also present.

"Thank you for paying attention to my sister.

　Seeing the spirit in his face, it was clear that he was committed to the revival of his family. I could feel his determination to achieve success in the war.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Thanks to your sister, I have your support. We will win this battle. You will join the advance guard. Noen alone is enough here.

　With about 700 men, we invaded Nagouri Province.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　On the way, we captured several enemy forts.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　All of them were small and nearly open, meant only to prevent the invasion of the small lords of northern Fordonia. Some of them were completely empty.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is not surprising that the original forts had no ability to stop us. A force with a single province was not supposed to be there.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The problem is that the forts have not been repaired or remodeled.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　So, it seems that the enemy does not have the intention to prevent us in the corners of their territory.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　As we were advancing, the latecomers and others joined me, bringing our total number to about 1,000 men.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　We then dropped the fortress of Saura, located deep in the center of Nagouri. It was a fort on top of a small mountain, but here, too, the enemy fled without much fighting.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　From this point on, it was serious business.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I held a war council with the SS.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"After crossing a few more passes, we will enter the plains of the northern part of Nagouri Province. Then we can hit the enemy's stronghold, the castle of Morcala, at once."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Morkara Castle is a port town facing the sea. The northern part of the Nagouri province is bordered by the sea, so there are many ports.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"However, there are a number of forts before we pass through this pass. Obviously, the density and number of forts are far greater than ever before. They seem to be undergoing extensive renovation work. You know what this means."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Rayon of the White Eagle Corps, Orcus of the Red Bear Corps, and others nodded their heads.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"So the enemy intends to isolate us here and destroy us. If the enemy can get around the back of this fort, it will be a pincer attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"Rayon is right. This kind of strategy has been used here in the past.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"If we try to force our way forward, each of us will be exhausted at the fort, and when we are tired and on the plain, their main force will hit us. Even if we run behind them, they can wait for us as long as they can get around our detachment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Olks said, holding his face in his hands.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"That's what I mean. Well, I guess the enemy thought there would be a lot more men packed into this fort."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is the kind of land where a large army would have nowhere to run. So, we intentionally sent many of them to the rear. This would allow us to destroy the enemy's detachment.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I'm thinking and acting accordingly. We will destroy them at once.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　--You're getting very enthusiastic. Well, it's not like their castle is inland. It's easier than attacking Mino.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Maybe you're right. I'll destroy their neighbors faster than you!

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I told Oda Nobunaga.
