His Majesty (Tanuki) is planning a massive march with St. Orion, which sucks.

In such a fold, the mission that was sending him to the Principality of Belm returned home.

The purpose of this mission was, needless to say, to protest against the assassination of royalty, the kidnapping of royalty and the assassination of nobility, and to seek apologies and compensation.

It was Viscount Hazette, a diplomatic nobleman, who became the head of that mission, and Viscount Hazette had an accurate understanding of the role of this mission.

In other words, it further exacerbated the cold relations between the Kingdom of Holy Bandam and the Principality of Belm.

His Majesty (Tanuki) does not want reconciliation with the Principality of Belm.

So no matter what the Duchy of Belm escaped to say as a result of the ambassadorial outburst, he asked the shield to apologize and make huge reparations for the fact that the envoy had been officially seconded by the Duchy of Belm.

Naturally, the Principality of Belm refuses to do so, so all it has to do is prepare for a solemn march later, but the problem here is the treatment of the mission it sent to the Principality of Belm.

The Principality of Belm may abandon itself and capture and kill the mission, or it may serve as a shield against the Kingdom of Holy Bandham as a prisoner.

Then it would not be an exaggeration to say that there is no life in the mission, including Viscount Hazette, the head of the mission.

In other words, Viscount Hazette had to make a demand to withdraw the request of the Kingdom of Holy Bandam on a critical line that the Principality of Belm would not abandon.

Viscount Hazette, who has returned safely, has the memory of His Majesty (Tanuki).

"So when will the Whale Class 4 be completed?

It's almost four months from now, Your Majesty.

"Then it feels too late."

His Majesty (Tanuki) summoned me at the time of the mission's return to remind me about Whale Class 4.

Of course, there's nothing rough or intimidating about the voice, but they use simple confirmation and silent pressure to cunningly remind me.

But you can't move me like that.

"We were in possession. We also have rare ore on the bottom. It takes some time to collect rare ore."

If the Brute Ease family is serious, they can get it right away, such as ore, or there's a huge amount of ore stored in an underground warehouse on Brute Island.

However, as far as I'm concerned, it's better to stay as far back as possible during the war season, so I'm going to have to ask the fourth ship under construction to be a time buying story.

It is not only the history of the planet that we cannot win even if we are ready to fight a war, but it is also repeated in the history of this world (Hekart).

"So, there is... so that we can deal with it as quickly as we can. Lord Brute Ease, let your lord prepare for the march too.... that's it, you can back off."

He seems to have ignored any march exemptions for emerging aristocrats.

But no matter what you say to His Majesty now (Tanuki), you will have no ears to listen to.

That's all resentment for the Duchy of Belm and the St. Orion nation... resentment is beyond its limits.

Because retaliation against these two countries is like the purpose of His Majesty's life today.

My father seems to have changed people lately, Dorothy also said.

Your eyes seem cloudy and dead.

It is a matter of His Majesty's (Tanuki) decision to attack and destroy the two countries of St. Orion, the Principality of Belm, and it is the southern nobles who have always fought against St. Orion, and the eastern nobles who have harbours to do so.

The problem here is that the southern aristocracy has fought the St. Orion nation in a span of years, so the military is of high quality, but the eastern aristocracy has not experienced a war for decades.

I have to say that the East is also the only one within the Kingdom of Holy Bandham with low military quality because it does not border on external enemies.

However, the Eastern aristocracy has not been engulfed in war for decades, so it can be adequately prepared for war.

"Then the respite is six months. We need to be ready by then."

We need to train after the completion of Whale Class 4, but Clara seems to have decided six months from the Royal Direct Fleet that about forty officers and junior officers have already started boarding training at Light Moon in Eastwood until they appear in battle.

"It seems that the Kingdom of Him and the Republic of Henrifi are being sent a messenger from your father. Are you sure you can take him in?

"Do you feel like 70% of the people in Hill Country? However, isn't it harder in the Henrifi Republic where it's better and 30%?

The kingdom of Hih is an island country east of St. Orion, and St. Orion is a dog-monkey companion.

I have heard that this Hi country has its own culture developing and that the state religion is in a state of engagement rather than a state of national disconnection with St. Orion because it is not Orion.

I hear mainly that the St. Orion nation fought a war with hostility.

Speaking of St. Orion nations that are indiscriminately hostile to pagans, it seems.

The Republic of Henrifi is a medium-sized country bordering the south of St. Orion.

As a country, I hear you are moisturized by trade, and if you trade with this country, the Kingdom of Holy Bandam will moisturize.

However, it seems that the relationship with St. Orion cannot be separated, so it will take a lot of material to convince them.

"What about the other countries?

"I guess the small county on the Genbalus Peninsula won't be leaving Orion so far. I think the Principality of Belm would be pretty upset if it fell."

It's not too late since the Principality of Belm fell, is it?

In naval warfare, the Holy Bandham Royal Army, which has a whale-class battleship, is quite advantageous and can contain the number of casualties in combat, but we must assume that there will always be ground warfare and siege warfare because this battle is an invasive one.

In other words, whale-class battleships of unparalleled strength cannot be taken to the ground either at sea, so whether they can be fought in overwhelmingly advantageous circumstances depends on whether other countries can join the battle as allies and siege their enemies by an overwhelming majority.

We need to make "number is justice", which is the iron rule of war.

Plus, if you find out that all the countries around you have become enemies, there's a chance that even the St. Orion nation will come for a reconciliation... I'd like to think so.

"Oh yeah, I'd love to have the Hon Kingdom on my side if I could, but it's pretty tough as it sounds"

"Was the Kingdom of Hon... a clandestine country?

"I'm not clamping up as a national policy. Because they're geographically isolated, and as a result, they're just clandestine."

Looks like something to me.

"If you can take in the Kingdom of Hon, you will be dressed geographically with a sword stuck to the throat of the St. Orion nation. Besides, the army is pretty strong in a small country. But the Hongkong kingdom is surrounded by vicious demon habitats, and the Hongkong kingdom seems to be the best against demons. I can't afford to stick my face in another country's rub right now."

"Is it because every country is geographically separated from the Kingdom of Holy Bandham... or will you struggle to take it in... OK, get closer to the Kingdom of Hon"

"Getting close, how?

"It's your job to think about it, isn't it, Chief of Strategy and Chief of Intelligence of Wangdu?

"... hey, good... just give me three days"

Clara, the chief of the Wangdu Strategic Office and chief of intelligence, analyzes the thick bundle of paper on hand and reports it to me.

Needless to say, I am the Pritz Intelligence Commander in Action.

Clara's a better position, but she's the one with all of the practical units.

Pritz has a very good information-gathering capability and Clara is excellent at developing responses to the results obtained from information analysis and analysis.

There are only twins and the two of us make the Intelligence Department complete.

Well, I guess I'll throw a round at Commander Federer about the Brute Ease family's army, and I'll be ready to reduce the number of wasted war fatalities by a bit.

In this battle, the Kingdom of Saint Bandam plans to attack from three directions.

I'm supposed to be in command of one of them.

In the other two directions, Father, the Governor of the South, and Marquis Cujou, the Governor of the East, are each to lead the army in the offensive.

Therefore the Marquis of Cujo shall be my maternal grandfather, and the assassinated queen shall be the daughter of the Marquis of Cujo.

So it's a profound battle.

The Eastern noblemen led by Marquis Cujou will attack the Principality of Belm southwards through the sea, and Father will lead the southern marquis southwards through the Kilpas River to attack each city along the Kilpas River.

And I would go for the capital of the Holy Orion nation by road from the Fortress of Gornew.

And with very little private army, I'm supposed to lead an army under royal authority.

Needless to say, I am supposed to command the direct command of the army in order to be a royal relative and the highest duke of the kingdom's nobility.

I don't want to go on a mission or anything, but the army I command is enough for the Duke of Brute Ease and Ana's Gornew Fortress Army, but His Majesty (Tanuki) forced me into it when I needed a number to rule the occupied territories as well.

Of course, that's not all.

I would have commanded from the son of His Majesty (Tanuki), but this time Prince Wang has been assassinated, the second prince is in solitary confinement as the main character of the assassin, the third prince is alive, but he has not been adopted by the royal family for long, and there are voices saying that he cannot lose any more princes.

The fourth prince is also dead, and Wang Taisun is young.

There are other brothers and nephews of His Majesty (Tanuki), but they are unrelated to the military, so it is impossible for them to march as commanders, and His Majesty (Tanuki) will not let them march.

For this reason, the Royal Family, where the third prince inherits the house as an adopted heir, has nine houses in all, except the royal family, which has the right to inherit the throne, but three of them are disconnected.

The royal family has the right to inherit the throne and is like the Mitsuya family of the Edo period in Japan. It began when I was happy as a division from the royal family in the past.

The Marquis Cujou, a mother's family of origin, is also a royal family.

Back to you, I just became a duke, and the bowl of military commanders came around, and I don't have the skills to command the army, either?

At the last Battle of Lake Zilpen, I was supposed to lead the army on behalf of the Governor of the South, but what a decoration I was?

Ha, if possible, I'd persuade His Majesty (Tanuki) to return to sanity and calm down, but not now His Majesty (Tanuki)...

Let's just try to focus on getting ready now, trying to persuade them if they get the chance.

The Temple of Magic Arts operates treatment centers and schools, and its chief cleric, Dorothy.

In other words, Dorothy has been very busy lately, coming and going to school with a treatment center co-located on the grounds of the Temple of Magic Arts.

It is Dorothy who teaches magic and magic to people in the treatment center who wish to be cleric apprentices who can handle healing magic and magic among the followers of the Magic God.

In addition, clerics teach letters and arithmetic in schools, and Dorothy teaches fundamentals to children with magical and magical talents.

Anyone else over the age of ten with qualities as a soldier or explorer is also allowed to be trained in military training facilities.

Whatever the case may be, the Brute Ease family is undeniably understaffed, so instead of providing financial support on operations from the construction of schools, the Brute Ease family is also being asked to develop their children with a view to developing the necessary human resources.

Unlike some northern country, I'm not looking to rule with brainwashing or force, so I'm just offering my kids a choice and a place to work.

"Dear Hall, I would like a ruling on the other day."

"Uh-huh, this requires subtle judgment, so I'd like to hear your opinion."

In the conference room, when the heavy ministers sit by both sides of the long desk and ask everyone for their opinions from me, the raised Federer promptly raises his hand.

"We need a defense base, as we have raised, to think about defense in the realm!

An appeal has been made by Federer, who keeps the army, to build a defensive base along the path expected to lead to an external attack on the Brute Ease region.

"What does Commander Federer think of the inability to secure personnel to protect the base?

But even though it is now the Brute Ease family that lacks the personnel to protect it even if we build that defensive base, Wood points it out because it does not touch in any way on the question of where to bring that personnel from.

"We will put in the war slaves of the St. Orion nation on that point. We're planning to build two defense bases, so we'd like to place 2,000 each."

Fewer than 6,000 combat slaves were allowed to own me as one of the rewards in the battle against St. Orion earlier.

Five hundred of them have converted from Orion to Magic God, so whoever sees a discharge and frees himself from slavery and desires it has decided to apply it as it is.

But the remaining less than 5500 people are still in a situation where they profess Orion.

I can't help it because it's common practice to keep ordinary soldiers warm and combat slaves put in the most dangerous places, but how many of the 5500 combat slaves live at that time? I wish they lived more than 4,000, but it's common that I don't mean to, and I'm going to take measures to do so, but there's absolutely no way to go to war.

"You have no idea how many combat slaves will survive this invasion?

Especially what Wood says, and I agree.

"Though we think there will be more Ningro?

You're cheap!

We are determined to win.

Well, are you floating?

Should we assume that Commander Federer's men are quite floating at this rate, too?

"Commander Federer, I don't mind your reckoning, but I'm not impressed with making it public."

"He says it's for calculation! Lord Wood thinks we don't need a defense base?

"You can't switch stories. What I'm saying is that building a defense base on the assumption that combat slaves will not die and maintain or increase the status quo is an empty theory on the desk. I think you're most likely to have fewer combat slaves in the first place, don't you?

"Is that an empty theory on the desk for calculation? But we have a mighty power! Your magic items, as typical of Mitsuki, will destroy Orion fanatics!

Not long ago, Federer's hot?

Well, I agree with Wood.

Sure, I'll make a lot of preparations so I can win, but still, it's never going to happen.

And Federer's role is to maximize the effects under the things and conditions I've prepared.

But now Federer feels intoxicated by the overwhelming fighting power typical of Light Moon's firepower.

That's dangerous as it is. I can do anything if I'm the only one, no, my ministerial corps alone can handle it, but if you say you can protect all the soldiers participating in the invasion operation, you can do that... but that would mean using my powers unlimited.

I use my power unlimited, it means I exercise my power as a god, and that can't be a neutral god.

In the first place, a neutral god is not an ally or hostile to either the good god or the evil god, which means that some exercise of divine power is permitted within the Kingdom of Holy Bandham, mainly in the south, which is my divine domain, but leaving the Kingdom of Holy Bandham and releasing its power as a god may give rise to a quarrel with other gods.

Fortunately, it is not a problem for me to enter from the fact that there are no other divine domains of the gods in St. Orion, but nevertheless we need to refrain from exercising any noticeable power.

Back to the story, the Woods are shaking their heads sideways and sighing.

Whatever you say to Federer now feels futile, but still, I'm the only one on this scene who can keep Federer's mind shut, so I can't help it.

"Commander Federer. I'll allow one defense base, but one is on hold."

"Gu!"

"And... even if the commander Federer is floating around like that, he won't be able to win a battle, keep his mind shut!
