A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World

King Azpar's office in the Royal Castle.

Two of them, Takeo and Azpar, sat across the desk.

"Takeo, I read Count Elvis' report."

"Yes, it would be interesting."

"Hah... that's right.

It's interesting from the edge, and it's quite challenging.

The outlook is also solid, so growth forecasts for the future are likely to go pretty much as planned.

Count Elvis is doing well.

But... the usual war... seems quite difficult.

It will be crucial to keep Count Temple and Count Godwin under control. ”

"Difficulty... I will give you an oral report on the contents of the meeting with His Majesty King Daniela Serrao Valeri of the Demon Kingdom and Her Majesty Queen Carla Briani of the Kingdom of Briani."

... um, let's hear it.

King Azpar nodded.





King Azpar, who heard the report of Takeo, was prone to his desk.



"Well, that's what it's going to be."

Takeo is drinking tea with a refreshing look on his face.

"If you thought it was a conventional war, you'd think it was a magician with more soldiers than usual?"

At the same time, it is deceptive, the main purpose is to invade the southern country, and it takes about a week... anything is too short.

... the opponent country may be small, but as far as Takeo can tell, there are more opponents than our demon kingdom soldiers in battle...

... why are there so many of these things in my time...

King Azpar speaks softly.

“Seems like it's just one thing, but it's related to two or three things happening at the same time.”

Well, that's right... hey, Takeo, what do you want to do?

King Azpar wakes up and asks Takeshi.

"We can only maintain the status quo against the Demon Kingdom."

I wouldn't engage in aggressive engagement in a conventional war, but if it were to be fought, I would kick it off...

I don't inadvertently provoke on the diplomatic side, but on the economic side, I'm going to hang out with you... right?

As I said to Lord Valeri, the basic strategy is to hesitate to invade by putting aside a force that makes you think that the number of casualties is not equal to the territory you are going to win. ”

"... that's the only way..."

Damn it, Willip the Allies is responsible for so much of my work. ”

"That's right.

But it's not all bad, is it? ”

"I see... it's better to know that in the Demon Kingdom, the people in the center are less willing to invade our country."

It is good to be able to formulate a policy that we should continue to maintain the status quo, develop the territory, and expand the defense facilities.

The Katranda Empire is also rapidly moving towards reconciliation.

We need to do something about this.

Until now, it was a battle situation on three sides, but it was a little easier to be on two sides.

Besides, although the Demon Kingdom is an enemy nation, it seems like it will become more economically connected.

Can you show me Takeo's arm there? "

"I'm just buying what I want and wholesale what I want little by little.

This time, I understood the path from the center of our country to the Demon Kingdom.

Interaction with intermediaries is also fine.

Four years later, we are once again refreshing the import of large quantities of wheat, so we will accept the order when the time comes. "

"Hmm, Takeo, well done."

First of all, it's important to secure food.

Then... six months before the war with the Willip Allies, I'd like to finish transporting the first bullet.

It goes to Neil via the capital. ”

King Azpar thinks.

Is this the first one...?

"Oh, even if they send it all at once, there's no place to store it."

I think it is better to divide it into three or four times in the capital.

I'd like to double the amount that the Count Elvis transported this time.

The final total amount is being discussed between the finance bureau and the economic bureau.

We'll import it at least twice before the war starts, but we haven't decided since.

I will definitely import these two times, so I don't mind telling the Demon Kingdom (over there). "

"I understand.

I will contact the vendor. ”

Takeo nods.

"Please don't."

Hah... you've given a lot of tactics to Takeo, the head of the Demon Kingdom. "

King Azpar said in awe.

"As I said in my earlier report on this matter, I think I have been able to come up with a good proposal.

It has increased the likelihood of turning around and lowering the strength of Willip's allies.

I am proud to have done well. ”

“I'm sure you did a good job with the matter.

But isn't it somewhat too effective?

If so, wouldn't it be enough to propose that the northern half of the last homeland be divided and annexed? "

"I think that was one of the proposals.

However, by daring to propose specific measures to make people aware that there are people who are always thinking of specific tactics in the demon kingdom, and by letting them realize the possibility of causing a large number of casualties when they invade our country, I think that it has had the effect of not making them willing to invade.

In fact, I felt surprised and recognized by the leaders on the other side.

I have no regrets about this. ”

Takeo says.

... well, in the first place, there was a difference in the strength.

Where tactics didn't come in here, we were going to lose.

Rather, it would not have been a bad proposition if Takeo had the feeling of gaining the trust of the head of the Demon Kingdom.

But now I have the wisdom to go to war with the Demon Kingdom.

Takeo's role will also gain importance. ”

“I don't think that's a good idea.”

Takeo nodded.
