Fun Territory Defense of the Easy-Going Lord ~The Nameless Village Is Made Into the Strongest Fortified City by Production Magic~
Apparently, it's one end of the plan.
The enemy knights were three hundred borrowed from the peripheral uncle of the kingdom of Yellinetta and the escort knights led by the prince Unimog Yellinetta of the royal family of the kingdom of Yellinetta.
Wyburn definitely wanted to hear about it because he heard that the puppet mage was manipulating it, but unfortunately he was beaten to death by the wall.
Apparently, it's one end of an invasion operation that's been planned for several years and transferred to execution for three months.
The king was unusually sorry. Apparently, the information was hidden quite skilfully.
Now in a room of the Lords' Hall, the King and Aperta, Panamera, and I, the four of us, surround the table and hold meetings.
"Neither the order for weapons nor the movement of the Knights was reported. Conversely, we are in the midst of large-scale water treatment work in Wangdu. I didn't expect you to hang that kind of money and dazzle this one... this time you're serious."
I nod and open my mouth to the king, who groans so grumpy to see.
"I see. But even though you were an unfortunate prince, you were able to draw a lot of information from the Unimog"
It is a complete state secret, such as the content of the war invasion operation. What would a royal human leak that, even if it were?
That's what I heard, but the king flaunted his shoulder not to seem funny, and Aperta explained instead.
"You were an amazing weak man. When I asked if I would peel my nails or choose my eyes, I immediately told them everything."
"You should welcome an enemy soldier who speaks honestly, but that weakness has made him frustrated."
Panamera also agrees with Apperta, who looks half-hearted, and says so.
"Ha... well, you don't like pain. So, what's the full story of the invasion?
When asked so, the king opened his mouth with a deep wrinkle between his eyebrows.
"The main operation is the invasion of the Marquis Fertio family, which has just expanded its territory"
"Huh?"
To my surprise, the king gave me a look that seemed complicated with his eyes narrowed.
"I'm worried about whether or not to make the Marquis' story your honor, but it would be nice to be a baron and have him listen to you."
With care, the King speaks of the invasion operation of the Kingdom of Yelinetta into Daddy's territory.
"As you know, the Marquis Fertio family greatly expanded its territory by about 50% in a decade. However, the development and recruitment of human resources had not been completed in time, and even though the scope of protection had been extended, the response had been delayed. They grabbed that by the kingdom of Yellinetta. We have deployed border guards from Wang Capital, but we don't have enough men or land."
The king said so in a sigh, and I accidentally pinched my mouth.
"So, isn't it exactly in the middle of being attacked right now?
With that said, the king nods.
"Mm-hmm. The first to be attacked, both locally and in terms of operational content, is the fortified city of Sukdet. In addition, the Marquis Second City to ensure the fall of Scudetto. And three towns and villages, including this village of Ceato, must be raided at the same time."
With that much mouth, the king lifts his face and opens his mouth again.
"But don't rush. The lead was no longer hit. It's a battle against time, but the situation hasn't changed where we've just run around. What we need to do is sort out the situation and take action."
And, the king says, Aperta takes over after one cough.
"Let me now confirm our response. First of all, Your Majesty and I will take a minimal escort back to King's Capital and form the King's Capital Knights to Sukdet. Next Viscount Panamera. The Viscount reports to Count Ferdinut, who will immediately form a supply unit and a knighthood, also to Sukdet"
After saying so, Aperta looked at me.
"Originally, only one lord of the village would have a degree of request for food and such. But if Baron Van decides it's possible, we ask him to take part in this defense."
Aperta said that with a serious face. Besides, I can't help but tell the truth.
"Er..."
Growling so, one eyebrow of Aperta rose.
"... no," he said?
It becomes a tingly air, and the eyes of the King and Panamera turn this way. Normally I can't say NO, but I can't pull. I don't want to get out of the village because I want to.
Even so, I choose words without disrespect.
"It's an honor to make a request, but I have a duty to protect this village. If you leave this village still in the process of development, that's what you'll abandon. As a lord, I want to protect my village."
I opined so with a serious tone of voice, but Aperta's eyes narrowed to a frigid odor.
"... there are weapons that fill Wyburn with holes in one blow, and defenses that can even crusade Armored Lizards and Dragons, but they're still in the process of being developed," he said?
I nod instantly at the suspicious apperta. [M]
"Definitely in the process of development. To be clear, not a tenth of it is done in me yet. If it's true, there's plenty more to make."
When I affirmed that I was incomplete, the boulder aperture also blinked my eyes. The same was true of the King, but only Panamera laughs with pleasure.
"The boy is still funny. I'm curious to see what more terrible things will be made, but you should keep this request. In times of national crisis, all nobles must cooperate in disregard of their own interests. That's like a covenant that gets exchanged when you become a nobleman...... hmm? Well, I took the place of the boy. Didn't you know the duty of nobility?"
Panamera said so as she remembered and smiled bitterly. No, I learned it from Esperda. Well, can't you pretend you don't know and take it off this time?
Can't you? I don't think so.
I have no choice but to accept the sighing mix.
"... ok. If that's the duty of the nobility, join us. But you also have a responsibility as a lord. We'd like to decide how many people we're taking from the village."
"Um, that's okay. But I need you to take that terrible barista."
"Of course. Use prototype twenty-eight. moveable and the most sturdy. However, because we need a lot of time and resources to make it, we've only been able to make three planes."
Answering that, the king laughed with a frightened face.
"You seem to be doing more research than any researcher in my royal family. Oh, my God, that's all I can think of."
"It's all about a little modification of what we have now. Well, when you get what you're looking for, I think you can make something a little interesting."
"... Hmm?
To my line, the king raised one end of his mouth curiously.
"… if there seems to be no problem, we will move each one to execution."
and, watered by Aperta, the king deposits his body on his back.
"Hmm... no objection. Okay, let's say it moves. Both me and the Viscount take at least three weeks to a month. Messengers will be sent from the town along the way to each neighboring nobleman on a different path, but it will be a similar time to show up with soldiers"
That's all the king said and stood up, looking down at me.
"Scudetto won't fall easily. But there are surely tens of thousands of troops packed around. I can't help it. We'll wait for our arrival and attack at the same time."
"Okay."
Follow the advice honestly. Instead, I say I don't like it when you tell me to go.
"Now act quickly."
That's what the king said, he was quick to get ready as he put it, and he left the village.
