The Twin Eagle Knights had divided their troops into four divisions as planned here.
　It seems that they intend to attack the royal capital of the elves from all sides and encircle and destroy the elven race.
　Each of them split into 600-sized legions and marched into the center of the forest.

　Only, this forest was also known as the


　The Forest of No Return


　The humans seemed to be struggling with the forest blessed by the spirits.

　Their marching speed is slower than a turtle, but not much better than a slug.
　The humans, lost in the maze-like forest, are looking left and right.
　It was completely as we had calculated.
　At this rate, our guerrilla tactics would be a success.

　Sure enough, the humans who had attacked from the north first screamed.
　It was a force led by the Elf Warrior Chief, Anemone.
　The women are flying around like monkeys in the trees, distracting the enemy forces and firing their bows.
　The arrows pierce the chest of the soldiers wearing chainmail.

　On the other hand, he skillfully uses spirit magic on heavily armed knights.
　With the help of the Earth Spirit (Gnome), he calls up a hand of mud from the ground and secures it.
　That way, even a heavily armored knight is just a target.
　A master archer can even hit the gap between armor and armor.

　And with the help of the wind spirit (sylph), the enemy's bowguns are nothing to be feared.
　The arrows from the enemy's bowgun will be deflected by the gust of wind and will pierce the trees.

　The enemy soldiers are confused by the unexpected attack, but as expected of an old and powerful man of war.
　He quickly regains his stance and turns to counterattack.

　The earth spirit's muddy hands are destroyed by the enemy's sorcerers, and the soldiers, realizing that their bowguns are useless, draw their swords and rush in.

　After confirming this with the magic of my 《Hawk Eye》, I give Anemone the order to retreat.

''Don't chase too far.

　Now, will she follow me?
　That's how I can measure her ability, or her trust in me.....
　For a moment, I observed Anemone's expression, but she withdrew without hesitation.

　I patted my chest in relief.

''That's fine. That's the basic tactic of guerrilla warfare.''

　I mutter to no one.
　The rest of the time, if you repeat this method of warfare, day and night, without interruption, the enemy soldiers will make a sound.
　They wouldn't even be given time to sleep, and they would be gradually worn out.
　They would be mentally and physically exhausted.

　History has proven the unwillingness and strength of this tactic.


　Mao Zedong used guerrilla tactics to oppose the Japanese, to exterminate the Kuomintang, to come to power, and to get his way.

　Ho Chi Minh and Nguyen Zap, holed up in the jungle, fighting off the United States, the greatest military state in history, and

　The Spanish, from whom the word "guerrilla" is derived, used guerrilla tactics and greatly distressed Napoleon, one of the greatest heroes in history.


　That tactic worked in the previous life, and of course, it works in this other world as well.
　It's a fool's errand for the side with fewer numbers to take on the side of foolishness head on.

　I don't know how my achievements will be evaluated in future generations, but I wanted to avoid being labeled as 'fool' by historians.

　When I finished gazing at the northern front with the magic of the Hawk-Eye, I was about to move my gaze to the western front, but I stopped.

　This is because he remembered that the one in charge of the west was the Dwarf King.

'Lord Günther would not need to worry about it.

　His service was confirmed only in the recent battle.

　He is steady and bold, and yet seamless. He has the capacity to be a king, but he is also a reliable commander. The only thing I was worried about was whether or not I could get along with the elves, who are dogs and monkeys, but I was more concerned about Lilith.

　I focused my attention on the east.
　The one fighting there, of course, is the succubus of the whore race.

　She is the second-in-command of my 8th Legion and an elite brigade commander, but I wonder how skilled she is as a commander.

　She was nominally second-in-command and troop commander before I rose to the position of corps commander, but I didn't appoint her as troop commander because of Lilith's skill as a commander.　

　I had bought her to command the troops solely on the basis of her prowess, but I wondered how much power she would have if I let her command alone.

　It was an unknown number and an interesting one, but in conclusion, his command was quite good.
　Skillful, it was hard to say, but it gave a reasonable amount of direction.
　Lilith doesn't imitate herself to stick out, and she gives proper instructions from the rear.

　As I taught him, he seems to be considering the advantages of elves: agility, dexterity and skillfulness in spirit magic while conducting them.

　It's quite a growth spurt.
　I thought he was the best boar warrior in our army, but maybe I underestimated him too much.

''I wonder if time has made Lilith grow up.

　Or maybe her position of responsibility as a brigade commander had helped her grow up.

This could be an unexpected harvest.

　She is so interested in the sight of him that she can't help but let out the word "ho".

　However, the word probably didn't reach her, but as soon as she said the word, Lilith started to charge herself as well.

　
　She completely regained her true nature and began to stand on the front line herself.

''Oh dear........''

　I gasped, but I didn't pay attention.
　He had just been taken by surprise by the elves, when Lilith's assault on him took him by surprise. The effect was immense.
　The humans were in a panic and their formation was completely broken.
　This was an unexpected effect.

　If he had intended to do this, he could have raised Lilith's reputation as a commander by a notch, but it seems that this is not the case, he was simply at the height of his excitement and couldn't stand still.

''Uryaaaah!''

　And just like that, she wields her rapier, shouting loudly.

　With each swing of that magic sword she brings down, the enemy soldiers fall down, but the elven troops, whose commander has stopped commanding them, seem to be in disarray.

　They are bewildered by the lack of coordination.
　Of course, that's to be expected, so I send the magic of the Telepathic Spell to the elven warriors.
　The instructions were quite simple.


"Instead of that single cell, you must take command.


　I had assumed that Lilith would throw out the command beforehand, and I had told the elven warrior that.
　When he received my "telekinesis", he nodded widely and began to take command.

　Once again, the elven tribes running through the trees in all directions, the elven tribes in the west, who have restored order, will once again deploy guerrilla tactics as planned.

　When I saw that scene, I literally took a breath and blocked both the magic of the Far-Sightedness and Telekinesis.
　He decided that he didn't need to worry about his men.
　If left to their own devices, the enemy soldiers would gradually raise their noise and lose their will to fight.

　The problem was our side. There was no sign of the enemy soldiers on the southern front, that is to say, on my side of the battlefield.

　But I didn't hurry and waited for the enemy forces to come to me.
