Chapter 133: Miracle
I looked at the distance and frowned a little. The night has passed, and the highland is already camping in front, not too far away from the South Window. Their army stretched thin to cover the highway to the Dunan city.
The force the Fitcher leaves to me consists of fifty cavalries, two hundred infantry, and seventy archers. There are also five volunteer mages coming in case we want to attack the highland.
Sadly, we are outnumbered by their time. The highland leaves one thousand men behind. I don't know how many mages they leave behind, but I can see a few hundred cavalries in the distance.
Anyway, I look through the eyes of my summoned creature and see that the New State Army already fights against the Highland, and by the look of it, they are losing. So the ambush they try to do is not really working as much as they thought it would.
In the canon, Rowd, the general of the 4th army, will retreat when he sees the situation on the battlefield become dire. However, he did not withdraw. Instead, he decided to fight, and right now, the ambush of the new state did not work.
"Sir Isaac, is the situation getting worse?"
I look at the captain of the cavalry unit for a second before nodding my head.
"Yes, by the look of it, they are pushed back by the highland."
"Should we help them? We can make a surprise attack right now. The army in front of us stretched thin, and they cannot get into formation in time."
"Hmmm, I don't think that is necessary. I can teleport us there."
"But Sir! That will consume all your mana."
"No. I can do that. However, which location should we appear from? And how many men should we bring?"
"We did not bring all of our men?"
"No. I don't want the army in front of us to know that we are not in the city anymore."
I look around for a moment before nodding my head.
"Captain, call as many men and even women who want to volunteer to be the dummy soldier of the South Window... I will explain the situation later. Gather as many people as fast as you can."
"Yes, sir!"
I summon Yuka and say.
"Yuka, can you call Lucina here? I need to tell her something."
"Of course, master!"
I nod my head and look at the distance once again. I cannot rush in helping the new state army. For now, I need to make sure the highland does not dare attack the south window.
When able to attack, we must seem unable. We use our forces; we must seem inactive. When we are near, we must make the enemy believe we are far away. When far away, we must make them believe we are near.
Thank you, Sun Tzu, for your wisdom. I need to make sure the highland thinks we are not a threat and think that we will not attack their main army.

|3rd POV|
Shu, the New State Army chief strategist, looked at the situation on the battlefield and frowned. This is a few times that his strategy is not working. Shu's strategy is to create an ambush by sending Ridley and his kobold army inside a forest where they will ambush Kiba, the general of the 3rd army, and possibly make him surrender.
Shu is counting that Rowd will not get involved in this fight because he is someone that did not want to get his name tainted, and Shu thought that this fight would make him retreat because how the fight is lost and it will taint his good name.
Sadly, reality likes to kick someone's expectations right into the trash.
Rowd did not retreat. He instead charged at the New State Army with a few thousand armies behind him. This isn't good for him. If they are defeated once again, it will drop the morale of the army.
While Shu did not believe in miracles, they really need it right now.
And a miracle they get. Coming from the mountain is the south window soldier charging down to the 4th Highland Army Division. The one that leads the charge? Isaac Lionheart.
Isaac and the cavalry unit charge down the mountain with a warcry with the infantry behind their back.
The cavalry unit attacked at the back of the 4th Highland Army Division and created chaos in their formation.
Isaac swings his spear around and kills as many highlanders as he can. His plan? To regroup with Ridley, who led the kobold army. Isaac wants to heal them and increase their morale.
Seeing the highland already forming a formation to block Isaac and his cavalry unit, he activated his rune.
"Summon!"
A Blue Gate Rune symbol appears above Isaac's head, and a second later, all his minor summons appear.
"Attack!"
With a cry, all the creatures Isaac summon begin to harass the mage unit of the highland army. This is the real reason why Isaac summons his creature. To harass the mage unit and to make his infantry unit safe.
"Summon!"
Isaac summons another of his creatures, but this time he summons it from the King's Road. A second later, a massive centaur-like creature appears from the ground holding a massive lance and shield. In addition, there is a massive bow and quiver behind its back.
The other creature is a humanoid creature wearing a massive robe that covers the creature's entire body. The robe is adorned with many jewels and patterns/symbols. This creature holds a staff in its right hand and a book in its left hand.
"Attack"
With that order being said, both King's Knight and King's Magician begin to unleash their attack at the army in front of them.
Rowd, seeing the summoned creature attacking his soldier without mercy, decides it is time to bail.
"Mage! Cast barriers around us! We need to retreat! Mage, cavalry, take the mage with you!"
Hearing their commander's order, a dozen of mages around Rowd begin to erect the strongest barrier they can cast before they mount the horse with the cavalry unit. Then, Rowd and his personal unit begin to retreat away from the battlefield without even looking behind.
Just like that, the fate of the battle has been decided.
