Garudeina Oukoku Koukoku Ki

This is the royal castle of the kingdom of Frungel, during the sight. There was the appearance of an imperial messenger facing the king, surrounded by numerous Hrungel royal ministers.

"So there can be no withdrawal of the army," he said?

"I don't know. This battle, the dinant who did start the invasion first, will have nothing to do with it. But it was your country that gave you the pretext to be invaded? Besides, they say they are repelling it without any minor damage. Nevertheless, a reverse invasion seems somewhat pitiful to the dinant"

"pity etc...... my country was invaded on the grounds of that difficulty after being shielded from pretexts that can only be described as difficulty. Besides, say you pulled it up. No messenger of the truce, rather than harmony. I'm sure you understand the legitimacy of our offensive against his country to dispel the righteousness of the imperial subjects who were unduly threatened with their lives."

"Of course I do. But what? I'm not trying to open up a war with you because I like you with us. But the church is loud enough to send a high priest on purpose. Ignoring them doesn't make the country rough. The same would be true where only a few soldiers were sent in form. We have to stop it."

"But..."

"It would be a parallel line any longer. The decision of our country will no longer be overshadowed… that's what we'll talk about if we come to Dragnil."

……

"The Imperial Messenger is returning. Show me."

In the end of the king's words, the messenger was bound to consolidate his sides by soldiers and to follow the scene without the art of becoming them.

The messenger later says:

"What a fool it seems to me to know the power of that one. Especially if the position was the other way around, I think His Majesty might have made the same decision, which is a frightening story."

This judgment of the King of the Kingdom of Frungel, Klaus Konradin Aloys Frungel, as a royal nobleman, cannot be said to be grossly incorrect. But that's only if they're not Georg.

At least there was no one in Frungel who could blame Georg for bringing a man of unparalleled power to the negotiating table and trying to use him for his own good.

"As long as it's done, you don't even have a nibble."

"Well. Honestly, I feel sorry for you. Oh, not you or the messenger, but the king of Frungel."

"What do you mean, it's"

"Literally. You're not thinking about Locke, are you?

"Don't treat people like rogues"

"I don't even think it's far away without hitting me, though?

"... honestly, it's not a troubling place"

There, for Georg at the earliest, is a room in the Imperial Castle of Lasvieto that he knows for himself. Recently, he has not even been stopped by anyone for visiting from the front. Regardless, if Lyudmila were not present, she would be held back on that ground, but basically she rarely goes away from this castle, and even more recently Georg has made such occasional visits that he has kept the castle from opening as long as he can, and so far he has never seen her when he visited.

(9) The horn also, he visited here again in this way, in order to know the intervention of Frungel on the front ahead and to hear more about its current situation. Fortunately for him, it was just as soon as the messenger who went to Frungel returned. From that speed, it would have been delivered not by the messenger himself, but by using a letter or something that informs him of the results, even at the earliest horse.

"... I wonder what that means"

"It won't be so hard for me to get in and retreat them, per se. Unless, of course, you intend to cut off any future interactions. But don't you think if Frungel retreats with one of my voices, he'll owe Lyudmila a lot of money?

"... I know. But if you do, I don't have the power to stop it."

"That's why I worry"

That's why Georg bothers, that's what makes "too big a loan". Previously, he said, "There is no standing for them if they withdraw the Frungel army, which began Rasheed and frustrated the nose of the Empire's generals, without any arrows to reward them," etc., but that is only one end.

Georg was hesitant to "lend" the country to his opponents, to make it, neither that nor that which they wanted. His basic diplomatic philosophy is "make as many loans as the other person can repay". It's also relatively easy to return, quick to say, hardware or new residents.

But when it comes to withdrawing an army of a country without blood, it is too great for a battle, and if it were a general of its own, it would reward it with a prize in addition to a territory, a lord, or a medal. However, if the head of State of another country did it, we cannot see what examples are reasonable because there is no precedent.

If this were just a human being, a nobleman of another country, etc., there would have been a way to bestow the title of Empire as a guarantee of identity within the Empire, in addition to gold and silver gems as a tribute. But the opponent is Dragnil, and the title is of no avail. Rather, its identity has already been established at the point of being Dragnil and Head of Gardina, not to mention the absence of the institution of nobility itself in Gardina. Furthermore, when the Empire conferred the title on the Führer, it is very likely that he sees it as a nation.

Especially from Lyudmila, what reaction the regular army and Kingsguard dragonuts, who have pledged absolute loyalty to Georg, will show.

Then it would be Lyudmila's true intention that we all have no idea what kind of gratuity would be reasonable. The easiest thing to do is to give them what they deserve, but there seems to be a slight shortage of gratitude for Gardina, who owns a large number of them in the first place. Then it would also be good to provide food free of charge with a large number of sub-people. Unless it's under war, though.

With the current situation of mobilizing the army and constantly depleting food, there is no way to facilitate the troops and food for the transport of the subpeople, and there is no reason why there can be no backlash from the country in such a way as to imitate it under such circumstances. Then what if the front is glued in some way, or after the war itself has gathered. This is not easy either. Because there is something waiting to be done after the war: rewards for the nobles who participated, or guarantees for the survivors, and the financial resources of the treasury, which will be exhausted, and the loading of food.

In other words, the fact that Georg sets out to withdraw the troops of Frungel is not always welcome as an empire.

"Creating a loan that you won't even give back will only increase enemies in a hoax. I want to avoid creating a rebel force against me. That said, even if there is one thing to be defeated by the Empire, I have trouble. You can't even look at a dinant when it comes to momentum."

"Well... it is true that it would be more helpful if I could make a loan to you to withdraw Frungel if I were to lose, but I am not going to defeat it so easily with hatred and our country. Rather, some see it as a good opportunity to knock the two countries together, right?

"As reliable as it gets. If so, I will refrain from the first case... I am sorry as a friendly country that nothing will be done. Consider sending reinforcements."

To the dispatch of reinforcements, the words, frowned Lyudmila.

"Reinforcements... even dispatched in the first battle ahead, you know?

"Ah. A Kingsguard organized in Dragonewt, a regular army of beast subjects, its mixed forces,"

"... I've heard of their bravery. If we were to be dispatched again, we would be larger this time. But Rasheed wasn't always in favor of the Gardinians in this fight."

That's why Lyudmila frowned. Until now, it has been Rasheed and his men, as well as forces led by Rasheed's son, who have shown their faces to Georg and the regular army in Gardina, who have been relatively less isolated from the Gardinians. Regardless, the aristocrats who have been on the same path in the last transaction are educated and rational to the extent that they do not put it on the table, no matter what their hearts are.

But those currently on the front against the dinants do have many Rasheed's men, but there are more aristocratic private soldiers than that. And many of the private soldiers are a citizen of the peasant ascent. Few of the Gardinians will find it easy to commit criminal acts on a daily basis on the part of those whom they call subhumans.

It was therefore a concern.

"Above all, of course. Instead, considering the future, we should eliminate the factors that make things happen in the formation. But if we can jointly confront the same enemy and win, maybe we can reduce that distance even faster."

"That would be..."

"What, you don't want to get in the way with me. It's just that my face as a friendly country and my own intentions. Well, it's something we need to get back to the city and call the council, but this council will probably approve. Whatever, if the enemy becomes a diner."

…………

Put your arms together and lay your eyes down, Lyudmila thinks.

If Georg boards up in Frungel, intimidates the king, and withdraws his troops.

If Gardina troops are dispatched and put on the front.

If Gardina decides not to interfere in any way and has to deal with the coalition of the two countries on its own.

Scale some cases and the pros and cons of each, and consider which ones are most beneficial to the empire.

Reinforcement marches were approved in the Gardina parliament approximately a week after that.
