Sacred Chevalier

Looking back at human history, it is often the case that technological innovation (innovation) makes common sense and stones completely meaningless until then. This is the same thing in war. The advent of firearms changed the tactics that until then had been considered common sense for more than a thousand years. In the field, a dense defensive formation with shields ceased to make sense, making it easy for even robust walls to collapse. But it was "naval warfare" that was more heavily affected than that.

During the naval battle prior to the appearance of firearms, galley ships dominated warships. This was a military ship that rowed and proceeded manually, and the tip was equipped with a spear called a punch angle. Regardless, sails were also used on galley ships, but this was only auxiliary to reduce rower wear and tear.

The basics of how to fight by galley ships are melee combat by military ships against each other. Read the wind and tide flow to avoid the target's angle of collision while crashing the tip of this side into the torso of the target. On top of that, the White Soldier's battle to slash into the enemy ship renders the enemy powerless. This is the basis of naval warfare.

Sailboats were not used in naval warfare because sails were better than sails in such athletics as rapid acceleration, deceleration and retrospective. The number of soldiers divides victory and defeat more than the Battle of the White Soldiers is fundamental. As a result, galley ships are loaded with more soldiers than loads, requiring frequent replenishment. The naval battles between kingdoms and empires have been taking place in the coastal areas of the Atlas Ocean, also because they had such problems of replenishment.

The advent of firearms changed the common sense of this naval battle. With the emergence of a powerful method of ranged attack called artillery, shelling was added prior to the conventional collision by angles of impact and the melee battle of White Soldiers aboard enemy ships. This tactical transformation will provide an opportunity to review the very way in which warships are located, eventually changing from galley ships to sailboats, eventually leading to the "great age of voyages" and moving the history of the world itself significantly.

Supposedly its first transformation was the "naval battle of Roda", which opened in 488 years of kingdom history.

When the Gulans broke into Parkshire, clashes between the Royal Navy and the Imperial Navy had begun in waters northwest of the Kingdom. Sierra, a military vessel belonging to the Royal Navy that was on sentry close to the waters of the Empire, encountered a huge military vessel. Oreil, the captain of Sierra, was skipped by the giant, but instantly read the currents and wind directions, confirming that they were in their favor.

"A glass of steering (port)!"

At the instruction of the captain, proceed to the left. The ship on the Imperial side remains straight ahead. Keep going and you can punch the angle into the belly of the enemy ship. An imperial ship has unleashed an arrow. But the ship in front of us is straight ahead.

"Humph, I hear the figures are too big for a small turn. I wondered how much it was because it was a giant ship, but there was no other love..."

If you continue straight ahead, you can crush the left-hand side of the enemy ship at the punch angle. That prevents the opponent from sailing. Later, all he had to do was punch a punch angle into the stern, but with his force he thought that the opponent would be above him, and decided that he should leave after the punch away. Enemy ships change angle slightly. This is a convenient angle to collide with.

"Are the enemies amateurs? It's like you don't know how to fight a ship."

At the next moment, smoke blew out simultaneously from the torso of the enemy ship, followed by a sounding like a ground howl. And a black mass poured down, and the deck made a noise and burst. I didn't understand what was going on with Orrail. I had heard information that the enemy was developing new weapons. I also saw a weapon called a cannon, developed to imitate it. But O'Rail didn't believe it somewhere. You can't possibly put such a huge chunk of iron on a ship. I just put it on, how do you use such a weapon on a ship that moves up and down violently by waves? That must have been what many captains and marines as well as myself thought.

But reality was cruel. The Empire used a weapon called a cannon to try and fight in a completely different way than previous naval warfare. If you can fight like this, you don't need a stone thrower or a crossbow gun. No, isn't there even a White Soldier War needed?

"Are you saying this is... a fight? This..."

The sound sounds again and the deck bursts. The deputy has asked for instructions. But O'Rail was just staring at his ship crumbling.

"Brilliant. Captain."

Reimnt, the captain of Brunhilde, the Empire's first artillery-mounted military ship, even had a rather pitiful look, instead of delighting in praise from his men. The ship rocks again. A third shot was fired in, and the enemy ship was sinking. It was a unilateral massacre from nearly a hundred meters away.

"Whoever is thrown out into the sea, help him as much as you can. You can't return to the kingdom."

The direction of the ship changes. A boat is unloaded and we go to help enemy soldiers thrown into the sea. Wolf smoke was cooked at the stern. directed towards the sailboat in charge of replenishing and accommodating them waiting in the rear.

"I'll leave the rest to the deputy captain. Return to Winberg."

That's what I said and went back on board.

"After all, the way naval warfare is going to change dramatically depending on the cannon. The Kingdom Navy only knows traditional tactics. Now is a good time. Clear the Kingdom Navy at this time."

In the twin hunter ZvillingJaeger, a fortress newly built on the Kabachi plain, Austro was having an argument with the cabinet members. The doctrine of main warfare makes up a large number of people, but Partina Circurie, the chief of the Tabernacle, disagrees.

"We did prevail in the April encounter. But the Royal Navy is huge, and it's Victor Dovish who leads it. The Imperial Navy has had that man drink boiled water many times. Even with artillery, there are only two military ships that can be put on the ship… it's not enough power."

"But the story of the captives is that the kingdom also makes cannons. But I didn't put it on the boat. That means we're not getting that far. Give us time, and all kingdoms will launch cannons in naval warfare."

In an outpouring argument, Austro made a decision. We must settle with the Royal Navy. Then we should fight in a slightly more favourable situation. Austro stood up and took the model of the ship placed on his desk.

"In order to put the cannon on, we're going to need a giant military ship. The reason for this is that the soldiers who will be rowers will have to be listed, as well as ammunition, shells, etc. If you try to put it on a conventional ship, you can't put water or food on it, and if you reduce the rowers, the ship won't move. Is there any way to fix this?

Everyone looked at Austro's inquiry. No one can answer. Austro himself, did not ask in anticipation of the answer. Give your own answers as you mock the model.

"There are two types of ships. Sailboats and sailboats. Ships are used in naval warfare. Because we need mobility to get close to our enemies. But cannons are weapons for long-range attacks. You don't have to be close. In other words, the ship that makes the most of the cannon is a sailboat."

"Are you going to take advantage of existing sailboats? But on a sailboat, it won't be a battle in the unlikely event that the enemy gets in."

"That's right. So disable the enemy before it does. The drawback of sailboats is that small turns do not work, but if you get wind, you will get more speed than a sailboat. Take advantage of this advantage"

Austro moved the pieces of wood side by side imitating the ship. The color of the eyes of the Partinas watching the movement changes. It was the beginning of the glowing "Roda's naval battle" in naval history.

Time returns to the occasion when the kites return to Fortress Varihardt. The day after the feast, Kate was in the military conference as Faranx's Tabernacle. Elfina and the other Sacred Knights (Paladins) are arching against Gratina.

"About a month and a half ago, he said, clashes with the Imperial Navy began. That said, to the same extent of skirmishes as usual, no ships with artillery have yet emerged," he said.

Faranx describes the situation. In sorting out the current situation, the Kingdom has three main fronts. One is the Atlas Ocean, to the south of the Cabachi Plains, north of the Great Fortress of Varihardt, the Urus Taipei, the retreat destination of the bandits who vandalized the province of Parkshire, and from off the coast of the military port of Roda to the imperial military port of Wimberg. In this case, it is in the southern part of the Kabachi plain that it is adhesive. This is because both countries lost a large number of soldiers in last year's showdown, and it takes time to recover. As for the Ursu platform, there is a problem of the period. Each nobleman is more difficult to conscript than the pruning of wheat begins in the South. If the King's capital's standing army doesn't move, the crusade will be next year. This means that the hottest front since June will be naval warfare in the Atlas Ocean.

"The Royal Navy is also larger than the Empire, and General Dovish, who commands it, is a famous warrior. Even if the Empire introduces a new weapon, it doesn't seem easy to lose."

"I agree. Intelligence says the Empire has built about two giant military ships, but isn't it hard to apply that artillery (canon) to naval warfare immediately? Unlike land, the sea shakes. If it's a giant weapon, it should have a hard time operating."

"Assuming that you put the cannon on the ship, and even if you could shoot it, it should be considered, in short, to have made the stone thrower powerful. As with land, can it be used for auxiliary attacks but not for major attacks?

The opinion of the tabernacles was that none of the vigilance was pessimistic. Faranx, who had heard that, was also unable to determine at the moment how far the wings of his imagination should be spread.

"Kite, at the request of the Fairchild family, you were helping to develop the cannon? In today's kingdom, you are arguably the most familiar with cannons. How would you operate a cannon in a naval battle?

"I'm not familiar with naval warfare, so I'm not out of my imagination..."

Asked by Faranx, Kate expressed her opinion while prejudging.

"What is the role of artillery in naval warfare like? It's not about killing soldiers like bows and arrows, it's about depriving ships of their ability to navigate. To do this, it is not a conventional battle of white soldiers, but a simultaneous shooting across the ship's torso from a distance. It'll be these tactics."

"I guess so. I'm not familiar with naval warfare either, but they say military ships are built quite sturdy to withstand collisions. I just ate a cannon or two and I don't think it's going to sink."

"We hear that the White Soldier battle between colliding military ships and boarding enemy ships is fundamental to naval warfare. That is the tactic of war of turning the torso of the enemy and sticking it straight in. This method of warfare was the traditional stone. But if there were more than one weapon in the torso that could destroy the ship..."

"I thought it was a good opportunity to tailor an enemy ship, and I braved myself into it, and that was the enemy trap...... is this what this is all about?

"I believe that a weapon called a cannon can change traditional tactics. Intense defense formations and other meaningless in the field as well. Traditional tactical common sense ceases to prevail even in naval warfare. I think so."

"While that pirate general looks lavish, what you need to think about is who you think. To the extent you think about it, he will think about it too. But the problem is, this is naval warfare, right? Unlike land (oka), detailed instructions to each ship are difficult at sea. How far each captain understands the cannon…"

Faranx stroked his chin beard and pressed silently. Kite also thinks. The enemy is that (...) Austro Tormakia. I don't fight on bets. You should be fully prepared and fight with a must-win operation. I guess the reason why the new big ship hasn't come out is because I'm still deciding it's not an occasion to put it out. But I couldn't read that to Kite, who assumed "what kind of occasion".

"Ha!"

While preventing a breathless series of attacks, Sophia asked about the opponent's gap. I see a slight gap in the flank, but I see it as an invitation. But I dare to ride that invitation. And while he backfires his opponent, he pokes where his attitude has collapsed.

Until then.

Gratina raised her hand and stopped. Sophia and her opponent, the Holy Knight, thanked each other. This Valihardt fortress always has more than twenty heroes and an equal number of holy knights. Without war, we would not use drugs, so the Holy Knights, protected by the natural tantrum of heroes, gather in training grounds in this way to enhance each other's power. Gratina, known as the Kingdom's most powerful saint, also stands in this spot once every three to four days. The appearance was unbelievably young in its forties and, no matter how it looked, in its mid-twenties. Tighten the brilliant beauty of brown skin and come out to the training field with your sword in your hand.

"Well, it's me at the end. When I heard you guys were coming, my husband drugged me a long time ago. It's an opportunity. Let me do everything I can, okay?

"Where I want it! I'm not like before either. I'll take your strongest name."

In the mouth of both facing each other, there is a grin. By the struggle, the air of each other was as if the pneumonia swayed. Hold your position and wait for your mind to overflow. Eventually the two appearances disappeared and a fierce impulse began.

"... so that's why you got all these scratches?

Kate looked down at Sophia sitting in the bench with a frightened look on her face. About a piece of skin, but there are scratches in many places. No saintly knight seems to be able to use raw hate, healing magic today. On this occasion, apply disinfectants, press a clean cloth against it and wrap the bandage around it. I changed places and wanted Claire to use her healing magic.

"There are fourteen wounds in all, and nine Gratina lords on the other side. Is that Sophia's loss?

"Say what. We'll kill each other no more. I just made some critical arrangements. The battle is a draw."

"That's what I'll leave you with."

A short distance away, a brown beauty was laughing when she was receiving allowances from her husband. As a swordsman, as a mature woman, it's not over yet. With that in mind, Kate continued to make allowances.

Celebrating the day of departure, Faranx offered prospects for the future to Kite, who came to greet him.

"At the end of this month you will be heroes and holy knights after the ritual of your turn. For the following year, it is customary to relax in the Wang capital, but the clouds are suspicious. You feel it, don't you?

"The emergence of a weapon called a cannon, the strangely motionless Atlas Ocean, and the Ursus Taiwan… this past year has been quite intense in the history of the kingdom. And it's still going on."

"Yes. These situations often get worse. At the beginning of the year, we marched to gather troops on Ursu platform, and at that time you were going to invite us too. But apparently, it won't be such an easy development. I don't know what's going to happen. Make sure you can move whenever you want."

Needless to say, Kite was going to do that too. As soon as we return to the King's Capital, we begin to move in earnest towards the organization of the hero and the Holy Knight. Besides the neutrals, Fairchild cooperation will also be needed. There was a lot to do.

"Be a shameless hero (Chevalier) to the hero flag you received (Drapaw). So..."

Thus, with signs of turmoil, the kites followed Fortress Varihardt towards the king's capital. It is about June 15, 488, the history of the kingdom.

The Turmakian Empire was founded when the country's ancestor Otofleet the Great bound tribes scattered throughout the North. It is a multi-ethnic state that recognizes semi-autonomy to each tribe, not a noble society like the Kingdom. Northwest Urus Taiwan was compiled by such autonomous tribes. It is the "Lucian tribe", a fighting tribe that is said to have burned even the Otofleet Great's hands. Men are often great with a large physique, women have thin pigments and many beautiful women with clear white skin and blue eyes. For example, "Isis Ellenskaya", the turn of the hero (Chevalier) Austro Tormakia, is also of Lucian origin.

The Lucians, who were a hunting people, had excelled in hunting since ancient times, ruled from the eastern Lisluna Mountains to the northwestern Ursu Taiwan, and were also recognized by the Empire as independent in the name of autonomy. The only reason we didn't make it to the south of Ursu Taiwan was simply because we had less prey.

"So, how's it going in the south?

At the foot of the northeast of the Lisluna Mountains, in the hall of the chiefs of the Lucian tribes, were gathered those who were the Lord. A mix of men and women, but everyone stands except one. The lord of the hall stood on his feet and sat arrogantly behind the room. Before that, the returning scourge is kneeling.

"The bandits who were vandalizing the south apparently attacked and lost the kingdom. But he also caused damage to the kingdom. I caught the neck of a great nobleman..."

The lord of the room moved Pickle and Frown.

"Are you sure?

"That's what I asked a few people. I'm pretty sure what took you down."

"Stupid..."

With that said, the Lord struck his tongue. One of the men in line asks the dreaded Lord.

"Master Camilla, what are you unhappy about?

The Lord, who was asked, turned his sharp eyes to the man. The men, even if they are combative, do not have the eyes to look ahead. I have no choice but to make up for that. That's what the Lord thought.

"In the near future, the battle begins. The raw of the kingdom will come in for a big election and attack on the Ursus platform. I don't think I'll be satisfied with the south alone. I can think of enough to get here."

That said the Lord rose up. The rich swelling of the chest shakes, but no one turns the eye of desire to it. They were all expressions of tension.

"Maintain control of the battle. And if the bandits escape from the south, capture them without killing them. You'll sell it to the kingdom."

Camilla Slansky, the strongest warrior to be chief of the Lucian tribe, made its splendid beauty injustice and gave orders.
