"So it's time to do it"
"Yeah, it looks like we've gotten to know each other a lot."
About thirty minutes after the simulation, Johan talked to the knight about it and seems to be thriving. He seems to have forgiven his mind a little to a knight whose expression is still slightly stronger, but who does not turn an obvious contempt for Johan, the beast man, for something like an exchange of views on martial arts.
Many others seemed comfortable in several groups of people of all races. Mainly, it looks like Dragonut is standing between them and getting along. I can't help but think that it would have been good to bring them into Gardina to make it, thinking that this would not have been the case with the Guard alone.
"Now, let's start building the fort, move the materials to the planned site, and let us all back down."
"Okay."
Lyudmila and Georg reunite their leaders, Gardina soldiers close to the forest, and the Imperial soldiers move heavily on the other side, carrying the materials they bring near the middle of it. The number only took a little while, but when it was over.
"Okay, let's just say we start. I don't think there's a problem, but just in case, be very careful."
Immediately after pronouncing a word of caution, a tremendous amount of magic comes from Georg. Then it goes to loaded supplies, and then a miraculous act begins.
"Ooh!!
"Oh my..."
"Marutai one after another..."
"The iron... could that be a nail?
"Hey, the moat's ready too."
Perhaps the greatest magic ever shown to man was enough to admire those around him.
Wood is processed one after the other, and that first creates a huge wall, where nails and other fixtures are struck one after the other, and buildings can be built inside at the same time. And on the outside of the wall, hollows of about 3m deep and 4m wide are created, and the soil that emerges in the process is burned in the air, compressed, hardened, and brick-like shapes of blocks can be created one after another. It will fill the exterior walls of the building, which will also be particularly important internally. Reinforced with stone from the top of plank-shaped wood, it can be seen to be a sturdy construction at first sight.
It is approximately 400 m square, 160 ha in size and quite large as a fort of this era. It would have gone far beyond the expectations of the Empire, with hollows, walls, residential houses and buildings that would have served as operational commands, even large squares in the centre. It is then a friendly specification that it is simple but fenced on the outside of the moat with excess wood and can even do some wooden swords.
There are only two entrances and exits, one on the north and the other on the south, that is to say on the side of Gardina and on the side of the Empire.
"Something like this..."
………………
Lyudmila, no, even Rasheed and the knight of the escort, have their mouths half-opened and hardened.
"... Lyudmila?
"Heh?... uh, yeah. Enough... No, enough."
"This is... a miracle to be right... then you would fall like that where the demon attacked you. No, on the contrary, it really is also at the base of the Gardina pioneering..."
"If I do that, I'm going to have to ash the fort?
To Georg's words, it was a raseed as nil as a rumor, but he hacked into the words of Georg that followed and returned the words. Perhaps it was an unconscious statement as a general of the "Empire," but still, it was something that Georg could not accept in the end.
"Mm, I won't imitate you like that. Then I'll give you this neck."
Rasheed hurries and shakes his head as he realizes his rudeness answers. Thoughts that put empires first may be top notch as empire generals, but let's not turn to diplomacy as we divulge them in front of the top of other countries, but also about this kind of content. As for Georg, his character, which is honest and simple in a good way, is preferable, but there is something called time and case.
"You can have your neck... Well, let me tell you something, in case you take any action against Gardina based in this fort, if that's unacceptable to me, burn down every human fort and blank all the agreements. You don't mind?
"Yeah, I'll be strict. Rasheed, don't try to make us break our promise."
"Ha ha! Yes, sir."
"Mm-hmm. Then the fort handed it over precisely. We don't need confirmation, do we?
"Well, if I could show you all this stuff in front of me... For once, let me go check on a few of my men."
"Naturally. If there's a request, I'll still accept it now, okay?
"I'd be scared later if I made any more demands... all the tents I brought are no longer necessary, and if anything, I'll do something with the materials around it. I have one favor to ask you about that, just in case you don't have enough wood for your life... firewood to cook or reinforce, I'd like permission to cut some of the forest. I understand you're saying things like flipping a foreword, but this place is too far from the capital. I was told I needed supplies, and it would take a little too long to prepare them, transport them, get there... Of course, people in charge of replenishment will usually be able to afford to act, but nevertheless an emergency can happen. I just want to avoid letting my precious soldiers die for nothing."
"I don't know what it feels like, but I can't allow that at the moment. Sure, this neighborhood is still out of my sight, but if you recognized us as a nation, the forest is definitely our national territory. How about taking resources from there"
"Sure, I can't help thinking it's shallow. But I'm really caught up in saying that I don't have the means to get in touch with you from here... I don't know how convenient it would be for you to happen to be here when you really need something like that in a fire."
"That's right... Later, I'll consider opening the way to this point, ambassadors or stationed martial officers, but not yet."
"A stationed martial officer...?
"Oh, you don't have a system like that... well, here we have a few high-ranking Gardina soldiers and their henchmen, and in an emergency, they have the authority to negotiate with you in my name. Unlike ambassadors, the main task is to collect and exchange military information. You can expect a lot to be gained from interacting with Imperial servicemen with a lot of experience in action. However, it is still difficult because of the undeniable shortage of human resources, and the problem is that clearing the way is too dangerous and impractical. Well, I'll see what I can do for a while."
"Resident martial officer... I see, indeed, if such a presence exists, I would appreciate it. Might I consider sending you to Gardina from here? If we are not just diplomats, but also craftsmen and military personnel who can exchange technology, information, etc., isn't that beneficial to each other?
"That's also in perspective, because Gardina still has technical difficulties outside of steelmaking and precious metalworking. But let's not do it yet. This time, we can't guarantee our safety until those who interacted with us have returned and anti-human feelings have diminished among the residents."
"That's on top of understanding. But I'd like to ask you to do it before the full-scale exchange starts later. Even this one, because I want to build ground inside Gardina before some other nobleman puts in the sidelines."
"Let's do good. Even this one, I really want to make a fat connection with Lyudmila before the extra tea comes in."
"Now let's do each other good"
"Oh, now we're finally going to be in shape as a city state."
When the two were snorting, it was in Georg's ear that the soldiers who ran inside the fort, which had just been made, were checking again from inside and raising their exclamation.
Apparently, the deal is going to go ahead without delay.
Incidentally, on the matter of deforestation, Georg settled into the form of consultation if there was anything to be done during his visit. Georg on the boulder was only too hard to tolerate the use of his country's resources without darkness. When we later placed the External Negotiator, we agreed to each other by placing him on the trading item at a fair price, and that was it this time.
