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

"Hah... if it wasn't for Lord Kitamizato's remarks, it wouldn't be quick.

"I think it could be a factor in price increases..."

"The question is, how many countries have such soldiers?

Three people think and say.

"For those of us who accept it, it is easier to simply scream...

Couldn't those aristocrats have said that?

"There must be good and bad.

Sure, if you attack without thinking, it will be easy as a response, but you can attack at once...

Seki may not be able to keep up.

The director-general will come.

"And if incompetence leads, then the looting will be terrible.

Even if the barrier was breached and the neighbors were evacuated quickly afterwards...

I'm sure there will be some damage.

The Director of Foreign Affairs will come.

"In that case, we also need to prepare residents' shelters in advance.

How many residents will be relocated even if we say we have to evacuate temporarily?

You'll need a house, compensation, a meal... a lot of money.

I also think about the Director of Human Resources.

"... are you expecting a war from the Military Bureau?

Takeo asks three people.

"As far as I can hear, we need to base our defenses on the second town from Seki and wait for support from the Katlanda Empire.

The Director of Foreign Affairs says.

"Director General, how many towns and villages are there from Seki to that position?

Takeo asks the director general.

"Sure... one town and five villages.

A standard town would have about 2,000 people and a village would have about 300.

The director-general said with a difficult face.

"If you think about the residents of this defensive town, 5,500 people... where to evacuate...

There is no town or city that can accommodate such numbers... "

"... but if we can't evacuate, there will be more casualties, and we'll have to do it.

What do you think of Lord Kitamizato?

The Director of Foreign Affairs asks Takeo, even though he has a head for the Human Resources Bureau.

"... as compensation to the people is received from the Willip League after the fact...

I don't know if I can give them a base... or if I can't think of the difference in the number of soldiers...

If you think about the psychology of your opponent, it's a good tactic... and then... fortification of the town? The castle is ready?

Takeo began to think as he said so.

"Lord Kitamizato?

Do you think this is the way to receive refugees?

"Hmm? That'll have to go into the town where the cage is located.

Asking people to enter other villages or to go to distant towns or other territories cannot be considered as a burden for both the host residents and the evacuees.

If it is a burden, it should be concentrated in one place.

"If you can certainly gather it in one place, it seems that the response can be somewhat centralized and there are few problems.

But when the soldiers come in... the town will be overflowing.

The Director of Human Resources says.

"... will the soldiers build a new fortress a bell from town and disperse into it?

If we could attack the town one by one, we wouldn't be able to attack the town sooner.

Takeo explains by writing three circles on the paper.

"... are you based on either side of town?

The director-general will come.

"If one of the three bases is attacked, assault their backs from the other two.

There is no need to attack deeply, but let's scrape it down little by little.

The side that can be attacked can't always be out of alert.

No creature can stay alert for days, so it will get tired and fall back.

Takeo writes about Kan and the whole of the first town three places away.

"Well... that makes sense for you to take the first town.

The Director of Foreign Affairs says.

"Who set this position... well organized within the Bureau of Military Affairs.

There should be quite a bit of disagreement... but if you're going to buy time thoroughly... it's not bad.

Depending on whether you have a base or not, the psychology of the other person will vary.

At least there is an environment where you can sleep safely behind you.

It is highly unlikely that we will be forced to do so, and it is even possible that the Commander will be absent on the front lines.

Takeo is impressed by the Bureau's assumptions.

"So... the first town needs less defense.

"Shall we turn that to the second town and the new fort?

The Bureau of Economics can't raise the defenses of all bases.

Director General, would you like to help the students of the College of Magicians as a practical training?

"If it comes from the First Knights and the Second Knights, it won't be a problem.

I'd appreciate it if you could root it out with the military bureau, etc.

However, it is known that it can be made in a month after the declaration of war.

Director of Foreign Affairs, please extend the work period.

"Shall we make adjustments so that we can start work at least four months before the declaration of war?

Operational guidance to the Bureau of Military Affairs... Lord Kitamizato?

"I'll explain to Ichinken.

Maybe you'll come up with a better idea, but it's not as bad as it sounds.

You won't be able to disgrace the Bureau of Military Affairs, which drafted the plan by denying everything, and you won't need to be upset about that.

Basically, it's the military bureau's operational street, and it's the best way to do the flesh after that.

And then... how will the nobles get out of here... "

"" "Your Majesty and the Council of Lords?

"Besides, budgeting everywhere seems to be fierce.

"" "We'll talk about that.

Takeo and the others had a meeting under the war for now.
