Bandit, Be Ambitious! To Accomplish Kingdom Revival!

The autumn breeze is starting to feel cold.

It may be early this year for Fort Aldes to be buried in the snow.

Looks like we're done incorporating fields from the north and Mictus villages.

Mu told me that the peasants who are soaking the fields with the fat that fermented the fallen leaves for next year's tillage can be seen from the spire's monitoring station.

My head goes down to the figure of such a peasant.

After all, it may be difficult to do field work in this place. It is said that 70% of the harvest of the flatlands is made by the lime guillette, which was sprinkled with seeds on a test basis.

I say vegetables are good, so it seems like it would be a good idea to try growing them around vegetables.

"A third of the kingdom of Sylvania becomes a mountain. Without expecting a harvest, it will be purchased from Krabble in silver. That would have been why the villagers would not return after the village of Mictus was attacked by a wolf."

"But crops can be harvested all the way up ahead. Silver Mountain doesn't."

In order for the Kingdom to flourish for a long time, it is not only necessary to secure an alliance with a kingdom of common interest and a force that will not be attacked by other countries.

We also need national power. I consider national power = self-sufficiency + economic strength.

The problem is that economic power is a limited resource, although at the moment it can be managed with silver lumps of silver mines. It seems that Silver Mountain in the northern fort has lost 20-30% of its output compared to before.

Although fortunately it was good because we found a new silver mountain, otherwise the future would have fallen with the Kingdom of Krabble.

As early as possible with the grain gold on the Raidel River, we need to secure new trading routes and extend sales routes, as well as find new commodities and goods as much as possible.

That said, we should assume that this has managed to make a point.

The problem is, it's self-sufficiency.

Ms Saffine told me that the total production of Lymgui is about 80% of what the Kingdom of Sylvania needs. Since vegetables seem to be sufficient, we still have to increase cultivated land. Is that supposed to be around the south dock somewhere?

I guess we'll be recruiting pioneers in Wang capital to create a pioneering village.

"What's wrong?

"Again, I was wondering if we should form a pioneering group..."

"Sure, Zairas spilled out that there were many who had been slashed into office in the Wang capital, but would pioneering be done to them?

"I thought we should try it first. No, I can't."

Noble opponents are out of business. We should take care of the area a little bit. Besides, if you leave it alone, it won't be a busy thing.

If we get a little harvest of lime gi, if we get more harvest than we consume ourselves...... That would lead to increased self-sufficiency in Sylvania.

I guess we should treat this as tax free for a few years too and subsidize it generously.

To start farming in the wasteland is harsh labor.

"Even if I do, where?

"Around here, it's unspoiled wasteland. Fortunately, the Madenium captives have made their way."

When I give you a map of where I plan to be, I'm even riding myself out to Mr. Marian and nodding.

"Again... Zaylus was thinking about the land, too. If the banter had the same idea, it would be a problem. Agroforestry was in charge of Macram. You just have to give him the people he can mentor."

Certainly would be appropriate. After that, you can give him early assistance. Wait... can you even use them like soldiers from Tunda?

If you build a village close to the fort at the foot, you'll likely be able to build about one platoon of troops at times of need. One more squadron at a time and the protection of the ridge will be an iron wall.

"Let's create a somewhat unusual pioneering group. Allow him to hold a shovel and a stone bow. By working with the fort at the foot, you can move heavy infantry to the eastern fort if you entrust a ridge monitoring post."

"Are you different from the militia?

"The militia will emphasize defense, but the newly created pioneering regiment will train them to be used for attacks as well. Train Mr. Torrell from the fort at the foot."

"You don't mean agriculture and military in half. Then the harvest could at least live on military pay. I'll call Torrell and McLamb, so we can talk about that pioneering group."

With an army like this, it looks like we could expand to about one battalion in the future.

I can contribute to self-sufficiency, and I'll have to pay a little less. I wish I could cut it down to half.

Communicate the concept of the Tunda soldiers to the Zairas, who came after a few days.

He doubted his quality as a soldier, but agreed that he seemed to manage by using a stone bow.

Mr. McLam also seemed to be pleased that the farmer's second son, the third son, was his mentor, so that they could have access to farmland.

"But it's going to take a while for your idea to take shape. Besides, the development of the wasteland will not progress well inside. His predecessors had a lot of hands..."

"We start by planting trees. If you make the grove, you can fatten the leaves. Besides, you can catch fish on the Raidell River, right?

"Not many people fish, but we catch fish from the Reden River in tributaries in the nets in Yotern. The mainstream Rayden River will have bigger fish."

I was talking to the three of us at the table for tea, but at some point, you came to the public talking about carrying a chair near the fireplace and enjoying the pipe.

"Are you saying you can sell fish, too?

"Yeah, we don't get meat in farmers many times a year. You can eat a lot of fish. I like grilled fish, too."

I see. Meat was eaten by the wealthy, and the common people were fish. I had never eaten fish in the Knights, so I thought I had no habit...

Maybe it was because we were bandits. We got a lot of processed meat, and the cats brought their prey on the hunt.

"The dried fish is also purchased by the traffickers from Crabble. I heard you're still a good farmer."

"I'm about to start pastoralism in the northern village, so I guess the meat will go to the common people in the future as well. That sounds like it would be a good idea to specialize in river fish if they could sell it later."

"It looks like the people at the dock are fishing for a dime. If you put water in a big bucket, you can carry it alive to a nearby village."

Don't tell me that fresh fish was already being transported.

Ask him what other stuff he can catch on the Raidell River, and he'll get river shrimp and shellfish.

"The army is based on dried meat and bread. I've had plenty in Crabble, but I forgot what time I ate the fish before that."

I am surprised that the army will be among the wealthy, but I will also say that I have benefited from it.

My mother told me about the fish being high in protein, low in calories, and smarter. Maybe we should even push the Raidel River fishing to improve Crabble's food situation.

When that happens, will it be closer to the Raidel River than it was originally planned for? Within 1 km of the river, close to the eastern ridge. This will then be a place where suitable land for cultivation can be secured.

"How about this neighborhood down south of the fort at the foot? It's close to the edge of the ridge, but it's over 60M (3KM) away from the dock, and if it's close to the ridge, you should be able to dig a well."

"When that happens, the first tree planting Lord Banter told us should do will delight the merchants who will carry their luggage if they follow the road that leads to this street."

Looks like it's going to be a tree-lined road. In the meantime, you should go as far as the fortress at the foot. If you plant it in three rows, you can supply enough fallen leaves, and the logging material seems to be usable as a burning tree.

"The problem is that they are nominally soldiers. Food and clothing will be served by the Kingdom of Sylvania. I don't know what Fina would say."

"You don't have to assume a village that acts as a fort. Half of them are peasants. That said, we have to assist them until their harvest is on track. Besides, you should consider living in a rural log house. I have a proven track record of building northern villages in a short period of time. I think we should start by building 100 homes."

You can use the knight at Mr. Torrell's and the motorized infantry at Altenham Village.

Reduced in the defense of the eastern fort, but two platoons should remain. Wood should be transported from the northern village, and carpenters should be hired from the villages of Yotern and Altenham.

"We just built a hundred homes and a few wells, and we'll move the Tunda soldiers. Before you do that, you should recruit soldiers with families to start training. I'll ask Mr. Zairas for this. Ten families who teach them farming ask Mr. McLam. If you contact Mr. Rieddus about the tools you use to open the farm, we'll get the numbers together."

Tell this story to Mr. Torrell and Mr. Rieddus, and the world's first soldier from Tunda will take shape.

It seems like it's going to be early next spring when we actually start pioneering. But I want to make Tunda soldiers the key to future eastern defense.

I'd like to create the same organization in the west if I could, but let's try it first and see what happens.

While we were thinking about a new soldier, Sadie appeared to have gone out with Mu and Marian to see Mr. Torrell many times.

The child born seems to be a girl. They say Mr. Torrell always holds it.

Growing up too overprotective might make Mr. Torrell cry when he goes to his wife in the future.

"Jill seems to be weighing in, too. More and more inhabitants of the kingdom."

Sadie reported it to me as she grinned, but would Mr. Zairas be equally troubled by it?

With those two, you could be in a position to go out on the battlefield carrying a baby.

This is where we need to think about childcare facilities.

Surely in the other world, you ran a nursery school in a nearby temple.

Why don't you talk to Emilda?

There are clerics in the management of the shrines in each town and village, so I think we can do it if we successfully use the denominational organization.

I can even teach reading and writing and simple arithmetic, it seems like it would be a good idea to develop it as an educational institution.

Every year, I send a bottle of silver to the denomination, so it would be helpful if they sent about a few people.
