Fun Territory Defense of the Easy-Going Lord ~The Nameless Village Is Made Into the Strongest Fortified City by Production Magic - 132 To the battlefield?
I was committed to the development of the territory, but at last I received a letter from the King.
The royal family has confirmed the success of Count Ferdinat’s defenses. The Yellinetta Kingdom lowered its front enormously. Now is the perfect time for the invading forces to return to the realm of the Yellinetta Kingdom after defeat. The aristocrats of the North gather all their strength and march into the realm of the Kingdom of Yerineta in a short showdown. However, only Baron Van Ney Fertio, who has fewer Knights, will not participate in the counterattack.
Reading that far, I breathe out in relief. [M] That’s good. That’s good. The King seemed to remember my desire not to go to war.
I thought so and continued, but little by little, disturbing words began to mix with the content.
“… in order to fight back against the Kingdom of Yellinetta, will you gather the Knights at a designated base and increase their strength?” If I take out the Knights, my defenses will be thin. Are you okay? After that… the designated base will be the territory of Baron Van Ney Fertio…? ”
Huh? What does the last sentence mean?
I don’t know, I read the letter again. [M]
“Ah, if you look closely, it also has a date written on it.” Um, just a week from now, we’ll be gathering in the village of Theato, Baron Van Ney Fertio’s territory….. ”
I don’t get it anymore, do I?
What do you think the Knights would do with such a large army in a very small territory with a small population? The Knights will number in the tens of thousands, even if the nobles have their territory close to the Kingdom of Yerinetta. Even if you leave more than half to defend each territory, there must be about 20,000 or 30,000 gathering. In addition, the Royal Army joins them there.
“… at least 50,000 people?” Well, if it’s okay to go camping in the meadow by the road… no, no, I have to think about meals and supplies. ”
Though confused, I let my head work on what to do if what I see is true.
Well, it’s been a long time since we had a chance to expand our territory. There is no doubt that the king and the other towns will accompany us. Then the kings’ hospitality is a must. How troublesome.
“I’ve been hit… I’m sure I haven’t left the territory and won’t be on the front line, but I feel like I’m in the most troublesome position…”
I put the letter on my desk and looked up to heaven. Let’s do it, Your Majesty.
Thinking of that, Till, who had brewed tea for me, leaned his head at the desk.
“Master Van, what’s wrong with the wrinkles between your brows…?”
Hearing that, she let out a sigh as she shook the letter with one hand.
“Dino-san has been talking about the impossible again… let’s prepare a lot of things for tomorrow for now.”
“Dino-san… isn’t that His Majesty the King?” You can’t just say your name like that! ”
At first, my words were on Till’s face, but she immediately turned her voice around and panicked. Laughing at the appearance, she tells the contents of the letter.
“It looks like I’m going to fight back against the Yerineta Kingdom, but for some reason I’m going to invade my territory instead of the sudet.” Well, I appreciate it if I don’t have to go to battle, but instead, more than 50,000 soldiers are coming to this narrow territory. Moreover, the King and the other nobles will come along… Wow, even Papan…! Oh, that’s annoying! ”
Till was in a hurry to be caught, holding her head in agony as she remembered a lot of extra things.
“Is the Marquis coming too!?” Oh, my God! We have to hurry up and clean up better than usual and prepare the finest ingredients! ”
Huh, there?
Till unexpectedly asks a question in her dialogue. Till’s eyes hung up as he looked at us.
“It’s important! It’s been over a year since Lord Van left the Marquis’s house! Now is the time to show how much Lord Van has developed his territory! Let’s show everyone how great the village of Theato is!”
And Till is on fire forever. She called out to Kamsin, who stood behind me as an escort.
Somehow, Till is motivated.
With a small voice, Kamsin laughed breathlessly.
I nodded.
“I know how you feel. I also want to show that Master Van is much better than Master Jalpa.”
“Ah, that’s right…? Well, that’s fine.”
Think about starting tomorrow, while remembering the indescribable itchiness of Kamsin’s words.
“… so, first of all, I’ll order a large quantity of food, seasonings, clothes, and armor from the Berlango Chamber of Commerce and the Commercial Guild.” At the same time, let’s ask the Adventurer’s Guild to procure wood and choose a delicious demonic beast to crush. After that, you can’t build a wall, but you’ll need minimal accommodations along the street. Ah, there’s also a treatment station when someone gets injured. ”
Take the order of what you need and line it up on the paper at hand. But the more you look, the harder it is. It’s not very long, but in a week it’s too short a preparation period.
Naturally, we should base ourselves in enough supplies and facilities as in the big city of Marquis Fertio’s realm. No, I have a sudet in the first place, so it’s only natural to use it.
“… hah, I’m in trouble.”
I mumbled to myself, looking at the notes. [M]
