Garudeina Oukoku Koukoku Ki

"After that, there are no reports that appear to have been reported."

"Yes... it seems certain that we headed for the Great Forest of Gardina, but then, no matter how it came out..."

"Hmmm............"

King of the Kingdom of Dinanto, Artur Ruikov Dinanto, was anxious not to return as one of the investigative soldiers led by Lagerkvist.

"… there must have been reports that the Empire has begun to develop the forest, but any additional information about it?

"Ha, reports from spies seem to have sent more than 5,000 sub-men as a first line and many precious metal stones such as gold, silver, etc. have been brought within the Empire. And now we're gathering nearly 5,000 sub-men again as a second line."

"…… you can't break this as irrelevant"

Artur took a deep sigh as he sat deeply on the throne.

"To the disappeared sub-people, to the development of Gardina by the Empire, to the large number of sub-people used there, the missing soldiers sent by our country..."

That's it, then, once his gaze turned to the ceiling, Artur slapped his fist against the elbow of the throne.

"The Empire!! They must have attacked our general!! They are... blinded by their rights and finally lost their blood!!

You can say that Artur's cry speaks for the feelings of the ministers on the spot. Because they also came to the same conclusion. Largelkvist is a bloody man, but not a man with the temper to carry out his mission until he risked his life. The main reason why he won't even return is that he must have been exposed to some kind of threat other than demons.

"Lionel!!

"Ha!!

The soldier-inspired man, called Lionel, takes the courtesy of a knight who lands on one knee and puts his right hand against his chest. Standing position is similar to that of Largelkvist, whereas he is a general of aristocratic origin, this one is a man who has climbed from knight to present position with knockout. Its martial arts and experience is the difference between cloud mud and the Lagerkvist, who climbed up only by blood ties.

"Prepare to mobilize your troops immediately. Give them a three-month respite. If so, how many soldiers can you prepare?

"With that, we can mobilize 20,000."

The total strength of the Kingdom of Dinanto is approximately 50,000 for the National Army alone. Considering, for example, border security with neighbouring states outside the Empire, we can say a figure that is almost close to the limit. In the first place, the figure of 50,000 is the highest value in theory, a fifth of which are half peasants, that is, those who are usually engaged in agriculture, and the requisition of this takes time because the internal circumstances are different from those of a regular army.

"Come on, we will give our lives to the aristocrats of the North to lead and march private soldiers. If you're reluctant, lead the soldiers and negotiate directly. We'll have a warrant by the time we get out."

"Ha!!

"Schwenner, go to the empire as a foreign secretary and see what is true. You don't have to tell me, but you just need to buy some time until we're armed. If, in the unlikely event, there is any certainty that the Empire will not be involved in this matter, send an early horse immediately. Well, I guess not."

"Accepted"

Schwenner is one of Artur's heavily used civil servants and is a proven one in terms of experience, strength and unprecedented diplomacy with the Union of Marine Cities of the South, the Kingdom of Frungel in the East and the Crochet Republic in the Southwest.

Sometimes those two did not raise objections, and during the glance, the opening mood began to fill. In the meantime, one civilian speaks up.

"O... I'm afraid, Your Majesty"

"... what"

"Ha... the Empire can mobilize up to 100,000 more soldiers. I will not oppose stomping through the war itself before this moves. But I wonder if it would be difficult to maintain it or prevent retaliatory attacks if we crossed the border and took enemy lands..."

"I know... will you stop being so stupid that you don't know?

"I don't even have a me-me exterminator!! However, as one of those responsible for protecting our country, I hope to be given your opinion on how to respond…"

"Hmm... it's Frungel"

"Frungel... is it a kingdom? Sure, the country is an ally in the first battle against the Empire, but I didn't know it had the temper to aggressively go on offense..."

"That's what I said. If our country is defeated and deprived of its national territory, it will be itself next. You can't be foolish enough not to know that. I don't mean to invade soldiers, just wander around the border."

"Well... will Frungel take on such an obvious role...?

Kingdom of Frungel

It is a state somewhat inferior to the Dinants in terms of total population, military power, and to the extent that the two countries can finally antagonize with the Empire. However, only part of the Northwest connects with the Empire by land, the east of which is separated by the sea known as the Taiwan Sea. And while it is the ability of land warfare that is slightly inferior to that of the dinants, the traditional navy boasts a strength that is also famous on the continent. It is also an economic state that excels in shipbuilding technology and makes up wealth mainly through transactions by sea. Its main counterparty is the Union of the Islands of the Taiwan Sea or the Union of Marine Cities of the South. Although it is a country that has used the navy to land, or even once suffered an empire in an electric shock operation, it has rarely invaded other countries in the past because the country, as such, lists "independence independent of force".

Incidentally, the Crochet Republic also borders with Dinants, but this one borders with the Empire. No, and has never fought with past Dinants. And Clochelle, the only republican state on the continent, often takes time to make national decisions. Even in modern times, for example, where the Japanese Prime Minister said, "Let's attack that country," then that can't happen if we decide to mobilize an immediate army, just like that.

"It would be the role of a civilian to persuade the army to pull it out, but no longer, you can't even make your share, etc.?

"No way!! … we will immediately select the personnel to be seconded and communicate the results to His Majesty…"

"Fine. Frungel also has a strong church influence, use it well. I will also consider asking the messenger to have a priest from the Church in some cases."

"Ha!

"All right!! Everyone, move on to action now!! This is an important issue of our country's prestige, cluelessness is unacceptable, good!!

"" "" "" "Ha!!

In the history of Gardina, a nation called Dinanto has emerged from time to time, but most of it as a hostile force.

Many of the reasons for this would not be beyond speaking.
