Since I was reincarnated as a poor farmer in another world, I decided to lay bricks and build a castle - 1215 Intimidating Diplomacy

“Please check here”

“… let’s check”

An emissary from the Glugalia nation who came to the Orient army on the base.

The messenger came out in front of me and made me examine what I had brought.

It’s a lot of buckets.

The barrel was filled with round objects.

I peek at some barrels and look at others.

Apparently, it was the anti-mediums who won the internal battle in Glugalia.

And the Medium faction, which was in conflict with them, was naturally defeated.

The losing mediums, especially those around Hale Medium, have lost their lives and are now in front of me.

In other words, they were brought to me as evidence.

In short, it was people’s necks that were in the barrels.

It’s not very pleasant.

It’s not like fighting and winning on the battlefield.

But it must be confirmed as such.

Focus on Oliva and other Orient soldiers who know the human face of the Glugalia Nation.

After doing so for a while, it was confirmed that they were the main ones who were said to be medium-sized.

“It is a pity that we, the Glugalia and the Orient, have been fighting each other in this way. We have dealt with those who foolishly brought my complaint into a state of war. So, please, I want to make peace.”

“Okay, but not just. There was a lot of damage here, too. You must pay the appropriate compensation.”

“… I know. Together with the compensation, we will recognize the logging rights of the Soft Demon Tree.”

“Are you licking me?” That’s not enough at all. ”

Of course.

That’s because it was a condition I offered when I declared war.

However, that condition is to avoid a battle with the Glugalia Nation, and is too weak a condition for rapprochement after an engagement.

Nakaju, where the lumber mill was already, was already under control, so let’s pull out more conditions.

After that, it was decided to discuss with the messenger for a while.

I won’t let you go.

Let’s squeeze it out thoroughly.

With the barrel with our necks on the side, we had a long negotiation.

“Nakaju’s ownership and logging rights, as well as compensation for the expenses and lives spent in the battle. In addition, it must be the ownership of towns and villages in Glugalia. Didn’t I just tell you, Lord Alphonse, that you took a large part of the Glugalia country? With all due respect, I didn’t think Lord Alphonse could negotiate that much.”

“You’ll tell me, Lord Banage.” Well, I guess Glugalia’s way of choosing a messenger was wrong. ”

Is it possible that the messenger sent in? I’ve definitely met him before, but I remember him as someone who had a deep knowledge of negotiation skills. ”

“That’s right. Glugalia chose someone with a strong mouth to negotiate with me and sent them to me.” Maybe it’s just to keep me in a good mood. It must have been decided that the first priority was to conclude the negotiations in such a way as not to become a combatant anymore. But that turned out to be it. If you were going to take on me, you’d probably want to bring someone stronger and a martial arts fighter. ”

“Oh, that’s right. Alphonse-sama’s specialty was [Intimidation]. Certainly, if he had been pressured by Lord Alphonse, he might not have been able to resist.”

Negotiations with Glugalia went well.

We continued to negotiate until the Envoy took our word for it and shook his head vertically.

At that time, [intimidation] was the most effective one, as Banage said.

While talking, when passing through our opinions, I hit the magic spear that was pointed at the opponent’s chest.

I kept putting pressure on my opponent during the negotiations.

Of course, it was Gluggeria.

Since childhood, he has been skilled in archery, and he must be quite capable of it.

So, I was able to endure it a little, but that was all.

Perhaps it was because you were so good at negotiating with me that you were chosen. Hale’s ability to drop a few steps was such that you couldn’t resist [intimidation] and succumbed to our demands.

As a result, it was decided to cut off much of the territory of the Glugalia country and seize it.

Not all of them.

If you try to take them all, you’ll have to shake your head to the side no matter how much pressure you put on them.

That’s why I stepped into the last place I could snatch the opponent from, and settled where I could make a deal.

It’s a good decision. If you were too greedy, you’d have invited unwanted intervention. ”

“Really? Banage thinks so, too.” But on the contrary, it’s okay that there’s no intervention at the moment, right? ”

To the extent that the clumsy person looked into it, it was unnecessary. If the battle was prolonged, there was a possibility that the major powers would intervene, but we haven’t been able to confirm that yet. ”

The intervention of the big powers.

This is one of the reasons why small groups of countries remain divided into several countries without being swallowed up by large countries.

When large countries attack a group of small countries, small countries may fight together even if they have been fighting until then.

In a way, it would be similar to the Glugalia nation gathering over a dozen reinforcements to fight the Orient nation.

As a result, the group of small countries has been ridding themselves of the demonic hand from the great powers.

Until now, however, a group of small countries have never been brought together as one country.

That’s because the big powers have stealthily intervened when a country protrudes.

Let’s call it a proxy war.

By intervening in a small country that is hostile to a small country that has grown stronger, the group of small countries continues to be in a state of turmoil.

Although small countries are self-reliant, they are very strongly influenced by major countries.

But that subtle equilibrium will soon collapse.

Because the Orient won over the Glugalia.

The Orient stands at the top of the army, and I’m supposed to marry a nobleman from the Brillian Magic Land.

In other words, it meant that the small country Orient would emerge as a country near the Brillian enchanting nation.

Such a country won over the Glugalia nation, which gathered reinforcements from multiple countries.

Some powers will not find it interesting.

So we also had to end the battle before there was any more trouble coming in from those countries.

Thus, in the winter of the fourteenth year of Garuda calendar, the Orient nation won the Glugalia nation, and it was decided to increase its territory and finish the year.
