After the story was finished, Charlie slammed his glass on the table, "Why are we the ones who betrayed the leader?" Jonathan, what are you doing now, don't think I don't know! Attack the orc tribe, capture them and sell them as slaves to Enoses, right?"

"That's right. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Jonathan acknowledged Charlie's accusations with an unchanging face.

"The regimental commander died in order to save his compatriots who were caught in the fire! You did the same thing as those foreign mercenaries! What is this not a betrayal?"

"Of course, this is to protect the union that is cherished by the Commander, and since [Black Silver's Fang] has entrusted it to me, then I must fulfill the Commander's last wishes. And the head of the regiment wants to continue this union more than his own compatriots. ”

"![Black Silver's Fierce Fangs] have long been unrecognizable, can this also be called a 'continuation'?

"Of course, this name will still be there for a day, as long as I have a day to live. Then no matter what means I use, I will grant his wish......"

"You're a sophistry! You're just a thief who stole the union from the head of the regiment that he had run for many years!"

"Haha, there's nothing wrong with thieves, isn't this the inheritance of the mantle of the head of the regiment?"

Jonathan said happily, probably referring to the former captain's profession as a relic thief. However, at this time, Charlie sounded no more sarcastic than this.

"Bastard!"

Charlie roared loudly again, and could only say that sure enough, alcohol was the catalyst for violence, and the usual Charlie was much calmer than now. At least it won't be thunderous at the slightest disagreement. This time, it was finally Sophia's turn to stop him in time.

"Again, calm down, Uncle Charlie......" Sophia said helplessly, for it would not be difficult for her to use military grappling techniques to skillfully restrain the limbs of a drunken man. It wasn't until Charlie stopped struggling that she let go of it.

Charlie, who had regained his freedom, sat back at the wine table with a gloomy face, grabbed the wine glass and drank it all.

"After listening to the descriptions of the uncles just now, let me also tell you my opinion. ”

With that, Sophia returned to her seat and took a sip of the milk, which was a little sweet from choking on the juice.

"Listen to ......"

"First of all, there was nothing wrong with Uncle Jonathan's plan back then. ”

"Miss Sophia!"

"Uncle Charlie, you should know that too. There are not many options that can be taken to face a legion that is far superior in numbers and combat power to their own side, and to try to rescue the large number of hostages they have imprisoned. If you want to win, it is simply impossible to pay some price.

So from a purely tactical point of view, Uncle Jonathan's personnel is perfectly matched, and the team races are also appropriate, so it can be said that he gave full play to various advantages to avoid shortcomings, and finally skillfully grasped the opportunity and completed the original plan in one fell swoop. No, the results are more than expected, right...... After all, in the end, you have completely crushed the opposing army. ”

From the story just told, it can be seen that Jonathan is very good at observing and controlling people's hearts, and he uses a wealth of means in combat to create many psychological illusions for the enemy, so as to guide the combat process in the direction he expects, which is precisely the thinking area that the 'man in black' in his previous life is not good at.

Compared with psychological warfare, 'he' is better at achieving combat goals with lightning-fast speed and needle-threading accuracy. Therefore, for tacticians with different styles from herself, Sophia has a new evaluation of Jonathan.

"But, Uncle Jonathan, your problem is that you didn't tell anyone else the details of your plan beforehand, did you? just conveyed very mechanically, 'what you should do,' but didn't tell you 'why you did it,' so of course 'what the consequences of doing this' no one knew. As a result, Uncle Charlie and your former union members will inevitably have a sense of 'being deceived' when faced with the sudden death of their leader, and they will quit the group one after another, right?"

"Hmph...... As you say. ”

This may also be Jonathan's strength, he will not deny what he has done, whether it is right or wrong, in a special sense, he is a 'conceited' but 'honest' man.

"However, there is nothing to be done. On the battlefield, soldiers often only need to complete the tasks assigned by the higher-ups, even if they are abandoned as outcasts, no one will tell them 'you have been abandoned', and if you tell the truth, it will definitely affect morale and the outcome of the battle. After all, the role of the abandoned son is often to disrupt and delay time......"

"Ahh

"No, I think Mr. Commander is different from the others, only he should know the content of the battle, he knows that he is being used as bait, but he still resolutely agrees to Uncle Jonathan's battle plan. Given his status and racial abilities, this was the most plausible explanation, and perhaps the original plan was to 'I can escape if it went well', but it didn't go so well. ”

"Hah!?you, what do you say! What fool would agree to such a suicide ......?"

"Yes, Uncle Charlie, I don't know the deceased Mr. Commander, you should know more about his personality than I do, right?"

Sophia's cold but powerful words silenced Charlie, and even though he was drunk, he could clearly recall the best friend with whom he had adventured.

"Ahhh......h That's right, that guy is that kind of stupid...... But if we had known beforehand, we would have ......!"

"That's the problem. Interrupting Charlie, who was about to say something in regret, Sophia turned her gaze back to Jonathan's direction, "If you let everyone know about the battle plan in advance, you will definitely be opposed." Presumably Mr. Commander kept Uncle Jonathan silent, right?"

“......”

For the first time, Jonathan didn't respond to such a question, he just kept a stiff smile, silently raised his glass, and took the first sip of the day.

"So, at the end of the day, I still feel that Uncle Jonathan's tactics are not wrong. In the same way, I can understand the feelings of Uncle Charlie and the other members of the group. If you have to find a culprit, it's ......"

"It's just the head of the regiment who is wrong. Right......?"

Before Sophia could finish speaking, an unexpected figure suddenly interjected and gave an answer. It was the orc girl who spoke, Shepheria, and her gorgeous face had the same cold expression as ever, but unfortunately the orc ears could not hide their feelings, and they drooped listlessly.

"Yes, for the sake of the moment, he exposed himself and his companions to the danger of his life. Originally, the decision to go to war with a large mercenary group was wrong, and even if a small number of orc slaves were rescued, it would not change the status quo of the empire...... Just like Sister Alice this time, it's just irresponsible self-satisfaction. He didn't think about the feelings of the people around him at all, and he underestimated his weight and value in the eyes of others. ”

It seems that for the situation created by the eldest sister Alice this time, Sophia's heart is still full of helplessness and dissatisfaction until this time.

"Hehe, you're right...... At that time, if we had known that it was this kind of dog-raising strategy, we should have stopped him even if we beat him up, ...... stop him!"

Charlie said and drank again, his cheeks were already flushed, I am afraid that he is so drunk that he can't even walk steadily.

"Miss Sophia, let's be clear, are you accusing me of being too stupid to the Captain, or that I should be as ...... as Mr. Charlie."

"Don't get me wrong, Uncle Jonathan, I think it's a matter of 'values'. What is the difference between the life of the regimental commander and his impulsive plan...... This kind of question should not be decided by others in the first place. As Uncle Charlie said, it's okay to beat him up and stop him, or like you, to keep silent and respect the decision of the 'regimental leader', but in the end it's just a different standard in everyone's mind. ”

Sophia did not give a clear answer, but her words had entered the realm of philosophy. In fact, even the 'man in black' in his previous life would not have made such feelings. So, this is the perception of a girl named 'Sophia' who combines her sensibility with the life experience of 'a professional warrior'.

"Hahaha...... Well said! People are becoming more and more suspicious of your actual age. Oh no, I should say that I haven't asked for advice yet, I wonder how old Miss Sophia is this year?"

Jonathan asked the girl in front of him with his signature fox-like smile again.

"Eight years old. ”

And the girl with the double ponytail gave a natural answer without thinking.

"Hehe, well, then so it should be, pardon the contemptible. If it were Miss Sophia, who was only eight years old but extremely intelligent, if you were the 'head of the regiment' at that time, how would you choose? Would you not save Shephilia who came to her rescue, and turn a deaf ear to her cruel people? Is this the so-called 'right answer'?"

I have to say that this is a very bad question, but Charlie and Shephilia who were present quietly waited for Sophia's answer, and cast some kind of expectant glance at her. Because for the current three of them, their leader is the powerful and mysterious girl in front of them.

"Hmm...... If it were me...... I would ......."

After thinking for a moment, from the delicate pair of cherry lips that were wet with milk, Sophia's "right answer" quietly flowed.
