The Leader of the N*TR Knights Decided To Escape

11 – You lost because you didn’t respond!

“That… What do you mean by that? Retreat? Are you saying we should leave all the fish we caught? If we attack now, we can surely put an end to it… ”

“It is the name of the general. He said that the enemy reinforcements had launched a surprise attack, so we had to retreat immediately.”

“no… Even if you say it’s a reinforcement, how much will it be! There is Cromwell now and there! I can’t go back and leave a guy who has now become nothing more than a rat in a poison!”

General Neto’s order to retreat suddenly came through his adjutant.

In response, Richard strongly protested, and at the same time began to think about protesting in his head.

Cromwell’s aura has run out and he can no longer block magic.

If he pushed on just a little like this, he would surely be able to kill him.

For Richard, as Cromwell is considered to be the one who needs more attention than George, the commander-in-chief of the rebels, she is in the middle of judging that he must be dealt with at this opportunity.

“Go and tell the general! I have to put an end to the guy who will always be my future comrade! I won’t go back until I’ve killed them!”

Richard shows such a tough attitude and tries to order the soldiers to charge.

But,

“You can’t let that go, Richard!”

William spoke to her in a voice filled with cold anger.

“Do you dare disobey General Neto’s orders? After you dare stab me in the back, are you saying you’re going to rebel against your superior’s orders this time?”

“Back of the head! You bastard didn’t listen to me and rushed into ruin by yourself, where did you… ”

“If you had just responded right back then, the battle would have ended long ago! I was foolish to think of someone like you as a friend to use a colleague as a shield and throw it away!”

In a vehement tone, William began to express his animosity towards Richard. .

Although it was true that he acted hastily, at this moment, in William’s mind, Richard’s fault, which he had neglected while his soldiers were beaten miserably, was considered dozens and hundreds of times greater than his own ‘small’ fault.

“I definitely warned you! You are the one who ignored it! But now what? If you are ignorant, you should at least listen to me, rather, because I had my troops intact, I have this opportunity!”

“Because this bastard wants to see you!”

In this way, in the conclusion that hundreds of his soldiers were injured and fell because she did not help, William put magic in his staff and aimed it at Richard’s neck.

“! you… . you child… What the hell are you doing to your colleague now?

“I don’t need colleagues like you anymore! You dirty traitor! In exchange for the lives of my subordinates, I will kill you right here!”

“Stop both! Now is not the time to fight among ourselves! This is the general’s order to rule with military discipline if we do not carry out the order to retreat right away!”

The words of the adjutant who resolutely restrained the two in a threatening atmosphere.

As a result, Richard and William had no choice but to take a step back while grinding their teeth.

As long as he bluffed that he would govern with military discipline, he had no choice but to obey no matter how many complaints he had.

So, the two began to retreat as they gnashed their teeth at each other.

‘Damn it! In the end, I had to leave the author of Cromwell like this… Opportunities like this don’t come often, but General Neto made a foolish decision… ‘

Like that, without being able to shake off the lingering attachment deep in his heart until the end, Richard showed a cold gaze toward the rebels who were shouting victory and Cromwell at the center.

“Retreat! All forces, quickly move westward!”

The Imperial forces begin to retreat at the command of General Neto.

However, due to the order given so suddenly, the soldiers were in a state of confusion without being able to act quickly.

Because they were prepared for battle in advance and released it, there was not enough time to organize the military camp and pack their belongings, and above all, at this moment, rebel forces were rapidly attacking this side from the east and south.

“bar… The rebels are here!”

“Stop! Drop your bags and stop them right now!”

Imperial soldiers hurriedly brandishing their weapons after throwing away the luggage they were carrying.

However, a clumsy counterattack made in a state where even the formation was not straight did not pose much danger to the rebels.

The ones who are effectively blocking the rebels are wizards and warriors included in the Imperial Army.

Thanks to their ability to manipulate magical powers, even a small number of them, capable of literally generating 100 power per day, could be quite a danger to the militia.

Thanks to the performance of this high-end force, the Imperial Army fulfilled the retreat order with minimal damage.

Watching this, Franklin gave the order to stop the pursuit, then clicked his tongue slightly in regret.

‘Chit… If we had just a few wizards on our side, we would have been able to clear up about 30% of the enemies. As expected, the difference in strength was too great.’

The rebel army has a huge inferiority in terms of quantity and quality of troops.

Nevertheless, only about 600 imperial soldiers were killed in this battle. In contrast, Franklin’s 500 men suffered fewer than 20 casualties.

Moreover, as a result of about 40% of the enemy’s camp turned into ashes, the situation caused serious damage to supplies.

This was enough to be called a great victory, and Franklin raised his sword as a sign of victory, alleviating a bit of regret.

“Wowaaa!!!”

“Win! We defeated the Imperial Army bastards!”

A miraculous victory for those who thought about death just a few days ago.

The fact caused the rebel soldiers to shout for joy,

Franklin also began to show a deep smile on his lips.

But at this moment

The smile on her lips was not simply a smile associated with the joy of victory.

‘indeed… Truly Captain Cromwell! It really is done just as He said! After all, the people I acknowledge are different no matter what!’

Like that, in my heart, once again, I felt my feelings for that man burning hot.

Seized with an intense desire to see the face of Cromwell, the protagonist of this war and her idol, Franklin gave orders to her soldiers as soon as possible.

“Then, some of them will stay and sort out the situation here, and the rest will follow me and go to look at the situation of our allies in the north.”

“Yes, General.”

So, feigning composure and feeling a little anxious, Franklin began to ride in such a hurry that it was difficult for the soldiers behind him to follow.

“Kheuheouk!”

“Keuuugh!”

After barely succeeding in retreating, the imperial army regrouped.

There, General Neto was kicking the two generals in front of him with a distorted expression like a demon.

“You guys! Are you saying that you guys are still generals? You William! No matter how blinded by the prize money. You’re doing such an ignorant thing to swindle troops? 300 soldiers died because of you! He blew away nearly half of his troops, he’s a guy who has no idea!”

“Kuh… main… Please kill me, General!”

William, lying on the floor, trembling.

At this moment, in his heart, instead of the pain of kicking, the deep feelings of shame were felt more painfully.

Then, General Neto’s gaze turned to Richard, who was also lying on the floor.

“And Richard… You mean you just let go the whole time William was being treated like that? A colleague is being treated like a dog, but you were just watching while eating popcorn?”

“I… I was just trying to avoid pointless sacrifices! Indeed, if we had had a little more time, we could have brought Cromwell’s neck…”

“Don’t you think that the enemy’s reinforcements overturned our position because you procrastinated so much! Fortunately, I was able to retreat quickly. At least we were all about to die because of your poor judgment! You bastard like this dump! Even if you can’t ask for forgiveness, where are you teasing a dog-like snout!”

“… ”

General Neto vents his anger and curses at Richard.

Seeing him like this, Richard couldn’t help but feel his stomach swell.

‘It must be you who made the dog’s judgment! If the reinforcements were really large enough to overwhelm us, there’s no way it would have ended with this much damage!’

The rebels who literally attacked them in moderation and stopped them.

In other words, even if it was a reinforcement, the scale was insignificant, and it simply meant that the author of General Neto was scared and missed work.

However, at this moment, even if you say such a story, the author will not listen to it and eat it.

Richard just started to think about what happened after this, just suppressing Lee’s swear words here.

‘Yeah, let’s see where. It’s not enough that I blew the golden opportunity, how dare you insult me like this? You’re such a trashy boss. I’ll change it right away!’
