Chapter 226: Determination

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

"The Twil's kingdom seems to be struggling on the battlefield with General Mary and General Gazelle commanding our troops, but apparently they have bigger numbers compared to us…"

"My grandfather had certainly less soldiers compared to them, but those soldiers are specialized on speed, have you heard about the second team? they will come out later on as I was informed…"

"That's right, I was informed too, did you ask your father about the details?"

"Yeah"

"They have already thought a strategy and prepared the best troops to send as the second support team, considering the speed and distance, they should arrive in a day or two."

"That's nice. Even though your grandfather is strong, inferiority in numbers is a fact that can't be ignored."

"…… This story has more inside than what meets the eye. Apparently Twil's country has not only sent soldiers but also commoners without any instruction are participating in the front line as soldiers"

"…… I think that regular people can't in any way match the skills of those who have been trained to stand on the battlefield?"

"Well, as you can see, in fact their side is inferior even if they have bigger numbers, but the thing is… the battlefield seems to be always changing, and they're constantly attacking reckless without minding their bodies or life… how long will this balance keep up if they fight in madness…"

"… Is the people's recklessness high?"

I wonder if they were forced to attack under the threat of being killed if not … but even then, their madness is strange.

"I think the Twil's country biggest famine seemed to have occurred last year…"

"……Oh, there was such a story! I see, yeah, I understand now… Is it because of the bad state of their land? that they are at a dead end?"

If there's no food, they will weaker and die in no time if they don't get these lands…

In order to gain these lands to save their dearests… they participate in this war and with the conviction to die and leave hope for the others?

Oh, even if they go they know they'll die… Their aim is to take down as much soldiers with their lives as they can…

I guess they were forced to make such a choice.

"I think too much … also, it may be that Divan took full advantage of the famine that occurred."

I feel that it has a bigger chance of being what happened.

In any case if what is left for them is death in any case, people will choose to fall having a little hope. Or trying to find a meaning to their deaths.

"No way, that is … cruel!!!! He's using them!"

"I hope it's only my imagination."

"But, lady Iris, how can they refuse to withdraw knowing that it's a lost cause …"

"… Well, is that so? Tell me, Tanya. How long do you think you can keep people's reason without hope?

"…"

To my hard to answer question, Tanya is silent…

"The weakened soil, the pressure of fiscal budget due to the debt of the previous war… How far do you think they'll reclaim results as if having a steady road,will the results come if they keep trying? … how long will people keep their reason until poverty, hunger, deterioration of security, dissatisfaction and anxiety prevails, how many people can endure those circumstances …? "

In the immediate next door, the Tasmerian kingdom spreads rich land with sweet fruit.

I am jealous that "Why is our country … …" or "Why is this so inequality …?", And further uneasiness and dissatisfaction can be accumulated.

"In order to divert such frustrations from themselves, the upper part of that country may have used war."

"… … that is, what is the result that the people wanted to fight?"

"The flow of the world is the same as a great river. Even if you try to go in different directions, you can not go against the big flow, and even if there are some people who are opposed to the war, public opinion prevails. They can't resist the flow, and unnoticed turn to face the same direction as the flow, "There is only that solutions", "There is only that way", I guess that their thoughts are trampled over with the big flow influence "

Was this not proved in my modern world?

With dissatisfaction swirling, people are enthusiastic about things that they think can break through the present situation.

Such events occurred in numerous places, many times.

"Especially, if there are those people who have fueled those thoughts of desperation to use them… If those wrong ideas are encouraged, painted as true, a broken river is converted to a muddy flow, they are blindly used for any purpose. And not one may be able to awaken them at that time. "

Did you use these people to change the fighting frustration into madness and have a slight chance to win, or did you try to fulfill your unaccomplished selfish desires using them?

It is unknown now which meaning has what he did.

I'm not only thinking this because we're enemies but because I think they're people as well.

Unnoticed means to reach the goal, just to win alone… are the same of what caused the disaster to this country sometime ago.

I wonder if it's true that this war is their only means to survive.

"… Although the story has diverted from its course, it's directly related to the situation, I think it's hard for grandpa to fight like this, being a professional soldier, and having as opponent a citizen?"

"Yes, it'll only be death for the citizens as long as they are fighting."

"Yeah … Tanya, thanks for the report. Please continue to let me know about the situation"

"Okay, milady"

I get closer to the window again after Tanya leaves.

Without sitting a next time, I stared and looked at the scenery and my palm alternatively.

…It has started. The war is on.

How far can a strong and evil muddy stream go?

And where does it think to reach?

…… Never, never be lenient with them.

Never absorb that muddy stream.

Because I am not the only one who'll drown if they break our defense.

I stood quietly for a while as I looked at my own preparedness again.
