When we got word that the supply line was destroyed and that Shunaria had gone missing, we immediately dispatched the army. Shure, though pale-faced, led the elves and about 50 goblins to look for surviving people from the supply line, while I led the remaining 300 soldiers to march to Sheng.

If we didn't set out immediately we could risk another supply line. That wouldn't do.

"Fei, I'll leave the elves to you. Keep watch and attack from a distance."

"Alright."

The surviving Gaidga goblins and Gi goblins formed the vanguard. We needed to attract the enemy's attention, so it was necessary for us to move gaudily.

We met the enemy halfway the path from Jirad to Sheng.

"Enemy spotted! There's about 150 of them! They're about 4 kilometers away!" A scout reported.

I immediately came up with a plan.

"Take out your spears and shields! We're assaulting the enemy!" I commanded, prompting Gi Jii to order the rest of the hordes.

We gradually increased our pace as we neared the enemy. Leading the vanguard was the enthusiastic Dashka of Gaidga, who wished to wash away the shame of defeat in his last battle, while the riders of Paradua rode at the flanks.

When the enemy came to view, they numbered 150 just as the scout had reported. They seemed somewhat frightened at seeing us. It seems they hadn't finished their preparations just yet. I unsheathed my sword.

"Go!!" I commanded, and Dashka bolted off, leading the charge into the opposing elven army.

Gaidga's brutish strength wasn't enough to tear through the enemies' armor. The most they could was to send the enemy elves flying with their clubs.

The enemy was donned in full armor and wielded long swords. A troublesome foe.

We were currently on the offense, but there was no telling how long that would last. Most of my force was made up of normal gobs. Letting Dashka continue fighting seemed to be the best course of action considering our stamina, but if they ran of steam, we would still end up as sitting ducks.

"Gi Za Zakuend!" I called.

"Leave it to me, Your Highness. The enemy's frontlines shall crumble before our magic," Gi Za said.

"Go!"

Gi Za took his druid horde and turned to the frontline.

"Fire!" Gi Za commanded, and a volley of magic rained upon the enemy elves.

"Nu..."

But a part of the enemy forces managed to repel even that magic. Are they using srilana or orichalcum? Either way, it's troublesome.

We have the advantage in numbers, so as long as we're able to get a good surround, we should be able to win.

"Ru Rou, Fei, take down their eyes. Ru Rou follow Fei's commands and strike at the enemy forces' rear guard!" I commanded.
