TL Note: Correction in the previous chapter’s translation. The land to the north isn’t a completely unobtrusive plain. Rather there are many areas that are unobtrusive plains.

Gi Ji reported to me the last known information regarding the orcs’ route.
And as expected, they’ll be attacking from the north.
“Gi Za, I’ll leave the traps to you,” I said.
“Good grief… We’ve been working since last night,” Gi Za complained as he gave the orders to the other goblins.
The orcs will attack in the latter-half portion of the day. We don’t have time to relax.
“Gi Ga, Gi Gu, go lead five groups each, and prepare to intercept the enemy. After attacking once, go hide in the forest to the west,” I said.
“As you will.” “Understood,” they each replied.
“Gi Ji, Gi Go, the both of you as well. Take five groups under each of your command, and then come follow me,” I said to the other two goblins.
“As you command.” “Very well,” they each replied.
“As for the vilalge's defense… I’ll leave that under your care, Gi Za. Give the orcs hell,” I said.
“Leave it to me,” he replied.
“Gi Gi has already gone ahead under my orders… Are there any questions left?” I asked.
The goblins did not say anything. I nodded in response to their silence.
“Today, we shall battle with the orcs,” I began. “Know this, this fight is not only to defend our home; it is also an opportunity given to us to end the orcs once and for all. We have been at war with them for far too long. Let this battle be the last. Let it end our long struggle against them! Let it end as triumph for the goblins!”
“Hooah!” They cheered in affirmation.
Under me are 10 groups, totaling to 30 goblins plus a rare class, and a noble class. Fighting as a separate force are 15 goblins under Gi Gi’s lead.
As for Gi Za, he has 23 groups with him that total to about 70 goblins. It’s because he is also using the goblins that had just turned adult along with the all the old goblins that his force’s number turned that way.
As for the humans, they are being led by Lili.
Once the orc enters the village, the humans will have to fight for themselves.
“Now, go!” At that last command, we departed.
◆◆◇
As the sound of trees being pulled resounded–––
“PyuGUAaA!”
An orc wearing heavy armor and shield could be seen leading a horde of orcs. And following that orc was an orc wielding a long spear.
Clouds of dust rose as the orcs reached the lake. In an act of recklessness, the lizardmen tried to put a stop to them, but they were pulverized. Trampled underfoot, their entrails left a trail toward the south… That is to say: a trail toward our village.
Damn bastards.
“Split into two groups,” I commanded.
The squads of Gi Gu who had just turned into a noble class and Gi Ga whose arm was longer than other goblins: together, totalled to 30 goblins. Then under me were samuraish warrior Gi Go’s, and the stealthy Gi Ji’s squads.
“We will attack the moment they enter the forest. Don’t miss the signal.”
Travelling through the forest, we waited under the wind.
We can’t make light of these bastards and their good noses.
There are many other living creatures that come to the lake to drink water, so the area around the lake is fairly open. From there, there’s a road being maintained by us to make the transport of the spear deer easier. But aside from that lone road, the area around is still a forest.
Taking advantage of that, we positioned ourselves on both sides of the road. One group to the left, another to the right.
Orcs have a tendency to cut down swaths of forest as they proceed, but it’s not like they’d actually bother to cut everything.
If there’s a road, then they’ll make use of it. But because of that, their horde will naturally shape itself into a line.
And once the orcs have lined themselves up nicely like that, then…
“Commanding them will obviously become harder! Now’s the time! Take them from behind!”
When half the orc horde had entered the road, we began our attack.
I led the charge with Iron Second, while Gi Gu and Gi Ga attacked from the other side. Like this we pummeled the orcs at the back of their horde.
“Turn me into a blade! (Enchant)”
I don’t have the luxury of holding back, so we’ll go at full power right from the start!
“GURUuUaAa!”
I invocated <<Overpowering Howl>> and at the same time, I clad my blade in magic power.
Like that my blade sunk into an orc’s large frame without even giving it time to fight back.
“Fight them with the three-man-cell like we practiced!”
I ordered the other goblins that after killing an orc.
Gi Go and Gi Gi’s squad fought against the wave of orcs that started fighting back.
The first shall break the foe’s stance, the second shall stop his movement, and the last shall finish the foe: That is the method to defeat the orcs. However, that too was quickly overturned.
“PyuGuGUAA!”
An orc’s stance was broken as planned, but suddenly the orc bellowed out in rage, and he grew mad. The maddened orc then quickly fixed his posture as he stood up.
At this time, the orc horde that had entered the road began to regroup with the orcs that haven’t entered yet as the center. They began to turn around, and they started fighting back without any regard to their own bodies.
