While the nobles at Qimo Fortress could afford to hold small banquets at the moment, that was only because they had won a victory and cleared the entire defensive line of enemies.
Prince Kase, for his own political considerations, decided to launch the attack ahead of schedule.
It wasn't just the humans who were unprepared; in truth, the Beastmen weren't fully prepared either.
Fortunately, the orders from Prince Kase were to simply tie down the troops at the major fortresses.
And for a pinning action, there wasn't much to think about. They just had to throw the cannon fodder at the city walls.

They wouldn't have to worry about a shortage of cannon fodder resources in the future.
With the Beastmen no longer holding back and fighting with reckless abandon, the human side was in a grim situation.
