Imperial Siege Part 3

'Do you mind, Mr. Feene? What we need to do is destroy the Imperial Coup Army. "

What I recall are the words of the colonel who makes me work like this.

Indeed, it was on our side in Ostmarc who said impotently to him. I want you to save me from the coup, but the damage to downtown was minimal, and what a mess it was.

But there were expectations that it would respond to that impotence. And to that expectation, Colonel Yusef is really up to it. Thankfully.

... if you meditate on my being made to work like this.

"Defending downtown and destroying enemy forces depends on how we draw enemy troops into the plain showdown. However, it should be advantageous in number, but they are not out now. I don't know what happened, but the enemy seems to have chosen Cage Castle '

'So? You think I'm going downtown because I'm caged and in trouble?

"Frontal attacks on caged enemies are foolish. We have to work out a plan. '

The colonel's face when he's working out a plan that way, well, sounds kind of fun. It's also creepy. Because most of the time, the measures are inexplicable, and most of the time, they work well.

"I'm going to help you with that, Mr. Fine. - No, I need the help of the Imperial Intelligence Department."

'That's not a bluff...... specifically?

'We are going to make a frontal attack to the extent that the damage does not increase. No matter, Attack for Towing and Yang Dynamics'

'If we do that, won't we cage even more robustly?

'That's where Mr. Feene and the others work. You have to do something to make them act the opposite way. You're good at Ostmarc, aren't you?

Prejudice is a good place too. What the hell do you think Ostmarc is?

... but now his expected intelligence battle is having the same results as he expects.

"Hey, miss. How's it going?

"... Versbach. Will you stop calling me that?

"Why? There's nothing strange about calling us' ladies' because we're stubborn dealers and you're the lady of the merchant family, right?

Working with this uncomfortable man is disgusting. If it wasn't a favor from Colonel Yusef, I'm pretty sure he was just refusing.

Kurt Versbach. Or Herbert Rebar.

Former Commander of the Defence of the Capital of the Republic of Carlsbert. A genius in intelligence warfare, who betrayed his beloved country for his beloved country. He is currently in the position of Director of the Fourth Department of the Ministry of Information and is primarily engaged in external work activities.

That's what he's doing right now in the Imperial capital, Esterburg, in an intelligence battle. The truth is that I don't want to use the help of a man like this, although I'm reliable when I say it.

However, he has had enough results.

"We're done discussing this with the 8th Cavalry Brigade's deputy brigade leader. 'I didn't get a chance to fight for the coward being my boss, and it would be hard to get a promotion,' he said, agreeing with me. I hear you and your brigade leader aren't close, and you'd be having fun by now, right?

"... it's a superimposition"

First, gather and analyze information on the coup officers I'm deploying to the Imperial City. Friendship, ideology, blood ties, current status of parents' homes, income, status, loyalty to the Imperial Family, loyalty to the new Emperor, etc.

A huge amount of information on jade stone mixing is processed, analyzed, and collated information is passed to Versbach.

Versbach acts on it.

At one point he curses the new emperor, at one time he praises the new emperor, at one time he supports the cage castle strategy, at one time he insists on a plain showdown, at one time he drinks and earns trust, and at one time he loses his trust in all his lies, both in his identity and in his business dealings.

How dare you? Well, that's what I can come up with.

Different directions, but they must be similar to Colonel Yusef's. That's right, should I commend the arms and praise that devastated the Republican prostitutes in a few days in the Republican Civil War?

"Now we have finished our work on the officers who were the lords of the coup army. Overall, it is a small number - the spark could be scattered enough. And then the task will be to watch it burn naturally."

Look at the gap and give this information to Colonel Yusef.

... but you don't have to do that, I'm sure he would know. Only that kind of inquiry is sharp. Other than that, you're blunt.

"Whoa, yeah. Souvenir tale. Finally, I found someone interesting. I'm just letting my men tail me right now, so what do we do?

"... an interesting person?

"The backdrop to this coup."

".................. were you still there"

It's no surprise or anything.

I don't think this coup is arbitrary by that idiot Prince Valter. A story I knew right after the coup that there was a guy who instigated it and that guy had the support of some country.

Or the culprit has already been confirmed at a time when the Kingdom of Silesia had a civil war with the pro-Ostmarc princess and the pro-Eastern Continental Imperial Grand Duchy, followed by a coup d 'état when it was engaging in direct fighting with the Eastern Continental Empire.

"What are we gonna do? Do you want me to keep touring the Empire City?

"... ready to capture anytime, right?

"Of course."

"Then you can still let them swim."

"Why not? Wouldn't it be difficult for them to keep you swimming and gather information?

"... there's no way a man like you wouldn't understand"

"Hahaha. I wonder if he'd found out. I'm not good at lying."

What do you want, this man?

"So, miss, when is the best time to speak up?

"Naturally, that's when the festival begins."

The festival begins immediately.

Probably within a few days. And if that goes well, there will be as many "accidents" as possible.

"Tourist surveillance continues. He escaped, for Christ's sake, Versbach, and I will throw you into the festival."

"Oh, scary scary scary. I don't like festivals, so I'll do my job solemnly."

Versbach says so, going under me - trying to leave, stopping pitally and looking back.

"Yes, yes. Apparently, the Imperial City is famous as a tourist destination. Apparently, that customer has another visitor, right?

…………

I know. As to its potential, it was within the scope of the assumptions.

And if I can, my heart tells me that I want it to be completely separate from what I'm thinking of expecting.

... but my sober brain, even if I was trampling on that guy's thoughts, calmly, calmly, the answer wouldn't change.

"… so do the same"

"Understand, my lady."

Versbach then disappears completely out of sight.

... Perhaps it was his kindness not to talk about "Mr. Ogi" until just before? - No way that would happen. That's not the kind of guy.

But if this is...

"If this were him..."

Unexpectedly yes, I can't help but say it.

If that man were here, what would he say?

No, I'm not. You're not, Fine von Linz.

If that guy finds out about this, I don't know what the hell to say.
