Well, there’s only one thing to do once the leaders of the Demon Lord’s army have assembled.
Attack a nation.
These muscleheads are impatient, so as soon as they were teleported, they headed for the next country. But because the teleportation spot was designated near a border town, they reached the fortress guarding the border that same day, and the siege began.
There’s no strategy.
There’s no strategy.
I said it twice because it’s important.
ㅤ
In the previous battle, I had devised a strategy to corner the hero, so the Demon Lord gave me command over two leaders, but this time it’s different.
Annoyances like the hero and the Twelve Apostles seem to be focusing on the Demon Lord, so the other nations probably only have their elites left.
On the other hand, we have a significant force gathered from almost all of our leaders (the rest are guarding the Demon Lord and defending other advance routes).
Unless we trip each other up, there’s no way we can lose.
That was the Demon Lord’s judgement.
ㅤ
So, there’s no strategy this time.
The order given by the Demon Lord was a single phrase: “Get along with each other.”
All we have to do is obey that and rampage as we please.
There are limits to being a musclehead.
I think the Demon Lord, who devised such a plan, is quite a musclehead herself.
Or perhaps she got tired of holding the reins of these muscleheads and let go.
It’s possible.
ㅤ
Is it really going to be okay?
My anxiety was blown away the moment the siege began.
ㅤ
“Fo-fo-fo. The fortress is in sight. Well then, let this old man lead the charge.”
ㅤ
With that, the bipedal turtle transformed into a size larger than a mountain in a blink of an eye.
He had undone his humanoid form.
The name of this turtle’s species is Mountain Turtle.
The name truly represents the body.
ㅤ
The turtle, using its huge body as a weapon, charged in alone.
It looks like it’s moving incredibly slowly, but its strides are so large that it’s surprisingly fast.
ㅤ
“Intercept it!”
ㅤ
Against this turtle, a rain of arrows and magic poured down from the fortress.
But the turtle continued to move straight ahead, completely unfazed.
Even though there were powerful spells probably cast by true equipment users among the incoming attacks, it paid no mind.
ㅤ
After all, this turtle’s defense and magic resistance stats are over 50,000.
ㅤ
In exchange, its other stats (especially speed) are fatally low, but its hardness more than makes up for that.
Moreover, it hasn’t even used its true equipment yet.
…If this turtle gets serious, I wonder if it could withstand attacks from the Demon Lord and the hero for a while.
I’d like to turn it into a zombie.
ㅤ
“Fo-fo-fo. I’m going through.”
ㅤ
While I was contemplating unsettling things inwardly, the turtle flattened the fortress with its huge body.
Impressive.
It’s like a siege weapon.
This turtle’s massive body and stats are just too perfect for crushing bases like fortresses.
Maybe we could just use this guy…
ㅤ
“Let’s go! I’m pissed off right now! Die and vent my frustration, humans!”
“Uhm! Let’s go on a rampage!”
“He-he-he. I hope there are attractive women.”
“…As always, they are noisy. Can’t they kill with some grace like me.”
ㅤ
Even though one turtle was overkill, the other leaders charged to kill those who had abandoned the fortress to engage in field battle.
The Ogre King mass-produced mincemeat, the Fenrir built a mountain of mangled corpses, the Orc King selected women, and after the Vampire Lord ravaged with magic, he sucked their blood.
Others, like the Cerberus, Phoenix, Chimera, Basilisk, Dullahan, Demon, Salamander, and so on, a variety of leaders were each wrecking their own brand of havoc.
ㅤ
The executives are each worth a thousand men.
They easily scatter ordinary soldiers, and even deal with bothersome true equipment users with ease.
If there were only one or two of them, perhaps the true equipment users could have surrounded and defeated them, but they seem incapable of doing so with this many.
On top of that, the monsters they’ve brought with them, and the army of golems and gargoyles are all attacking in large numbers, leaving their opponents overwhelmed and defeated one by one.
ㅤ
Our forces are overwhelmingly superior.
ㅤ
I see, this is why the Demon Lord makes such brutish decisions.
It’s too one-sided, it doesn’t even qualify as a fight.
This is nothing more than a trampling.
Strategies are unnecessary for trampling, unlike in a war.
I stopped thinking too much about it, and made the most of it by using my automata and mithril golem troops.
ㅤ
In the meantime, the enemy was completely annihilated without much effort.
Even those who tried to flee were killed by the angry Ogre King, leading to a literal total annihilation.
The only survivors are female soldiers who became prey to the Orc King.
It was a complete victory.

After capturing the fortress, the Demon Lord’s army marched through the unmanned wilderness, destroying villages and towns along the advance route, and the country quickly fell.
The next country also fell swiftly, and the advance route to the Holy Kingdom of EhrfleIt was opened without much difficulty.
And through that advance route, a huge horde of monsters poured in from the Demon Lord’s dominion.
Just a quick look around and there seem to be more than a million monsters.
And this number is still set to increase.
According to the Demon Lord, she’s calling in the entire Demon Lord’s army using all the open advance routes, so the final number may exceed a billion.
How terrifying.
ㅤ
Leading such a large army, the executives and I invaded the Holy Kingdom of EhrfleIt.
After several months from the day the executives gathered, we finally reached the capital and joined up with the Demon Lord.
