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

Arkin and Brooke are now facing each other in the wolf form of Bludge and Bonatta.

"... I see.

A pair of those who try to break through by hitting the shield and then jump over and attack from behind. "

Takeshi said as he watched.

“Yeah, it's easy and everyone knows it, but this is tricky.

Even if you block it with a shield... you're going to jump over and turn around, right?

There are no basic shields behind them... well, we'll take care of it with shields.

Soldiers can get confused if they're not good at it.

Ah, the Arkins lost. "

The general secretary says.

"... I see.

Indeed, when I asked Viktor before, he said that if we really charged, 30% of us would escape even if we were defending with shields. ”

"Hmm... if the ex-commander is 30%, that's for sure."

In fact, 50% of them left their shields and 20% were defeated, and 30% thought they would be violent in enemy territory. "

"If you can get out of 50%, our damage will be huge."

... I got this...

"Was that 2,500 people... now there are 2,500 two-legged beasts... this is very difficult."

What are the countermeasures? "

... before you get pushed into the shield, will you step forward and knock it down?

"Yeah, there's no point in shielding."

But that's not going to happen. ”

"That's right.

Then we need someone to hold our shields and someone to intercept those who have jumped over... General, I want to know how far we can fly.

Please fly with all your strength a few times and tell me the longest distance and the highest point reached. "

"I understand.

Well, let's make sure it's over when we're done.

Hey, give me instructions. "

Tell your subordinate that the general secretary is holding back a little.

Roger that.

Go for a run with the troops assembled by the Royal Guard.

... two platoons out of 1,000, and a few in each platoon...

"Hmm?... ah, how many magicians are there in the region?"

The general secretary nods to Takeo's murmur.

There's also a recovery strategy, so there's not enough firepower to intercept it...

"Yes, it's one of the worries I hear everywhere."

I wanted to increase the number of magicians I could get into the Magician College to become a magician.

Well, as the standard seems to have fallen from this year, the number of magicians will gradually increase... but that doesn't mean immediately. "

"After all this, I felt that there was a shortage of magicians."

“That's the best part.

But there's nothing I can do right now. "

"If you're screaming that it's not enough, it won't increase it."

... ng... what's the matter? "

"Well... if that means holding it back so it doesn't fly, then it's a bow."

"Speaking of which, don't you use a bow?"

Is there something there? "

"Um... well, maybe I should explain.

Bows have an effective attack distance of 100m.

The sorcerer shoots from 200m to 250m, so it's seen as something that doesn't work on the battlefield.

I was expecting to use it when defending against the walls... but I think we had a small stockpile.

It will be a weapon commonly used by adventurers. ”

Well, if I had a magician in the fight, I wouldn't have reached my bow... but I don't know if I'd have enough stockpiles?

"Hah... I don't always use it to defend the city walls."

Besides, bows and arrows are still consumables.

If it is made, it will deteriorate even if it is stored.

For the time being, I haven't used the product for 3 years. If the shaft is not bent, I will use it again, but I will discard it after 1 year of use.

... the expense is too much. "

"Is it a budget?"

"Yes, well... this is it, but the team thinks that it will be used against Willip's allies."

Especially in the defensive fortress the Bureau of Military Affairs is thinking about.

Unlike a magician, a bow can only be used by ordinary soldiers if it has arrows, and it's good to be able to release it at once to contain it.

As long as the cost is not bulky. ”

"... I'm telling you that as well."

The two laboratories (we) see a high need for mass production of arrows. ”

"... if there is a supplier, we will manage."

I don't know when the Military Affairs Bureau will request it. "

"Even if you make an advance arrangement, if there is a limit to the number of years of use as the general secretary says, you can't do it now."

General, if you want to make arrangements in advance, please tell the Military Affairs Bureau that it is better to make arrangements with the Institute first.

We can stockpile materials at our discretion.

I'll leave the price on hold.

Besides, you can't make tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of them just before they say it, and it doesn't make sense to take over the materials. ”

"That's right.

I'll tell you what.

Besides, I think the bow will be fine... do you think it would be better to make Kitamizato? "

"Hmm... it's okay to make it... but there are some people who think that they are good at bowing before my customers."

"Um... Did you also have a subordinate?"

Imported? "

"It may be said that it is good for domestic products, but... I think it is okay to import it.

Would you like to know the type and price of bows that you might be able to import? "

"That's right.

I don't need to use it at home, but the Military Affairs Bureau might ask me something, so I think I should know.

Well, it's not that soon, so as soon as the war is over, that's fine. "

The general secretary was right.
