Hachinan tte, Sore wa Nai Deshou! (WN)

Episode 99: Can I really do that?

"It's very lively. Count Baumeister"

"White porcelain products were a huge hit."

Despite leveraging construction work before, the tax revenues of a town with a population of about 50,000 could not support a total of 10,000 resident troops, and I thought about the latter and did not reduce my funds On the contrary, he was conducting an increase strategy.

There were craftsmen making porcelain in the army of Mizuho, so we worked with them to create the so-called “Bone China”.

They were craftsmen who were making Mizuho porcelain for export, and they were so busy that they couldn't sell Mizuho porcelain because of the war.

In cooperation with them, they succeeded in making high-quality white porcelain by using bones obtained from the demon hunting that the military has done to secure meat for porcelain.

"It's demonic bone ash, it's a surprising material."

"The mixing ratio is secret. A good Mizuho porcelain craftsman would soon study it ..."

"Yes. I'm already making prototypes. For firing, we have a high-performance magic kiln. As long as Count Baumeister is magical and enviable."

"The fuel is the same magic power as the magic and the magic pot"

Mado kilns are similar in nature to electric kilns.

Although the introduction cost is high and a large amount of magical power is consumed, stable firing at high temperature for a long time is possible, and high quality pottery and porcelain can be made.

In rural aristocrats, firewoods are still the mainstay, so the country of Mizuho is also leading the way in the field of pottery.

"I'm researching, but I'll make it only here for a while."

I decided that I couldn't make it unless I was involved, and I sold as much as possible in this town, blocking information as much as possible.

In case of magic bone ash etc., there is also a limit to concealing information, so it is a bonus period only for now.

"Even after the war, we will attack the imperial market with improved Mizuho porcelain. Will the Count of Baumeister make it on his own territory too? Because the Count of Baumeister is far from the southern end, we have less competition No, let's get along. "

We are already complicity with Mizuho.

Because the molding and painting of porcelain are all left to Mizuho porcelain craftsmen.

Since I can make and bake clay all at once, I'm doing it in a building inside a fort now to keep my confidential.

Molding and painting were mass-produced in buildings inside the fort, with a large number of craftsmen who were not in their main business at the order of Earl Mizuho.

Price is about five to ten times that of conventional porcelain, even for plain items and mass-produced products with simple pictures.

Like bone china in England, there are delicate paintings of color removal, and some craftsmen now apply gold leaf, etc.There are also craftsmen making luxury cases and luxury goods are at ridiculous prices Was.

These porcelain have been selling like flying in the last three months.

No one can imitate with unprecedented whiteness, and Mizuho craftsmen with high technical skills are in charge of finishing.

In a state where it is not enough to make or make, I put the main force that uses magic power here.

Hunting to secure meat increased the military's participation, leaving the fort, town and surrounding public works to Blantaak and Katarina.

Elise is in charge of treating the sick and injured in the church every day.

"The people of the imperial capital. They seem to be bruxous without saying anything to us."

The reward of the war so far is after defeating Duke of Nuremberg after the autumn harvest.

Until then, I'd like you to be stationed in the town of Surcutt and get some tax revenue there.

The emperor and his entourage had taken such steps in harassment of us, so we couldn't say anything to us, who earn from making and selling white porcelain.

Because I do business, I have asked the deputy to get permission and it is not illegal and I am glad that the tax is zero.

No, strictly speaking, there is statutory tax revenue in the town of Surcutt.

However, the tax has been granted by the emperor himself to use this tax to govern the town and maintain the troops.

The town's budget, including the labor costs of the deputies, was covered by all the maintenance costs of the army, and it was in the black.

All profits except tax are in my pocket and senior Mizuho.

"As you said, the town's tax revenues helped it grow a small army of 10,000 people."

All white porcelain is a luxury item, and despite the economic downturn during the civil war, merchants who come every day come and purchase in large quantities.

The business targeting them has also begun, and the town has springed to white porcelain special demand.

The town is constantly expanding and the clearing of farmland is going well, and the public finances of the town are in the black, so public works, etc., which have been postponed due to budget constraints, will be carried forward.

Naturally, there are not enough people, so more people have come to work from nearby areas.

The town is expanding every day.

"The town of Thurcut is expanding. The emperor can't complain."

The empire is guilty of neglecting its development even though it is under direct control.

"But nobles like new things."

Plain white porcelain tableware is sold to ordinary people with a little swing, and luxury goods are sold too late for orders, thanks to Mizuho porcelain artisans who have recently been able to attach fine painting-like paintings.

Most of them are sold to nobles.

"I guess the emperor doesn't like the nobility who wastes white porcelain."

He wants to rebuild the economy in a territory stagnant due to civil war and prepare his army for the defeat of Duke of Nuremberg after harvest, but he seems to be quite dissatisfied because many nobles are buying white porcelain with the gold.

However, a certain number of wealthy people buy such luxury goods as usual, no matter how recessive.

I heard that the nobility holding kilns on their territory, which was deprived of the market for high-quality porcelain, was angry, but their finances were in the red.

Because this is a competition, I could only say that we should improve the quality of our porcelain by ourselves.

"The emperor can't say anything, because he's robbing even the southern nobles."

Despite the civil war, there are some merchants who purchase porcelain in the town of Surcutt and sell them to the south.

There may be their own special route.

"Because the southern nobility have money."

When he abandoned the Imperial City, the Duke of Nuremberg fled with enormous imperial assets.

He distributes some of them as award to nobles who are on his side.

The Duke of Nuremberg wants to use it for development and armaments in the territory, but it can't be forced to use all but one cent.

It was only a matter of time before the nobleman who had enough time to settle for high-quality white porcelain.

"As a result, the emperor can't say anything because the financial resources of the south are also thinning."

"That's why, before I worry about that, I just want to be concerned with the reign of the Imperial City."

The emperor and his surroundings are subtle, but the governing system has not collapsed.

If you recover from paralysis, it will be restored to some extent.

Take good tax revenues, borrow from large merchants, and issue imperial bonds.

The funding was secured by common sense, and the turmoil in the southwest and southeast was somewhat calm.

The Duke of Nuremberg seems to have decided it is time to build up his power, and seems to be mobilizing, except for a small number of ready units.

Constructing a defense system, reorganizing and training various lords, and conducting internal politics within the territory.

The lord must have been busy.

"I can't do war without money. Oita was saved."

"This is in the black."

Because I have an advantage in clay and firing, the profit of selling porcelain is 50/50 with Earl Mizuho.

Even if he gave pocket money to the Royal Army and the Elles below Philip, the money was increasing.

"I will save it because it disappears like a fly in the war."

"Really, war costs money ..."

Still, I and Mizuho's senior ears would be a good class.

Some imperial families and imperial governments have suffered catastrophic financial damage.

It is certain that struggling to rebuild the economy after the war.

"Do you still buy white porcelain?"

"Because nobles can borrow."

Even at such times, I am concerned that "the tea cups served to our customers are beautifully painted and the base is milky white and beautiful."

Nobles are creatures that value pride above all else.

"I have a nobleman who is as fond of me as I am, and I don't. No one can withstand such a condition."

Senior Earl Mizuho, who knows the Imperial nobles, smiles.

"You have to sell high while it sells. If you have other competitors ..."

"Do you want to reduce the price?"

"It's also a hand, but there is a risk of falling down if you do too much and you don't make much money. Since Mizuho porcelain is so popular from the beginning, it is better to make some improvements to match the imperial people and compete with quality. is"

"Yes, because it doesn't make much sense to compete in price cuts with other localities."

Before the other side catches up technically, it is only necessary to raise the technology and release it, or brand it and make it known to the public as a long-established store.

"It seems that Count Baumeister is also familiar with business."

"It's book knowledge."

It may come from the experience of the previous life.

Some foods are made by importing cheap materials from abroad and keeping the cost as low as possible.

Because both are separated, there is no point in competing poorly.

"I think we can make it in the spare time even after autumn."

"If you do that, you'll have the problem of escorting craftsmen."

"I just need more soldiers because I'm making money for it."

"When that time comes, I think it's fine to be flexible."

"That's right. Well, it was financially helpful."

Senior Mizuho returns happily to his territory.

And Alphonse was showing up as well.

"Therese is busy with the rule of Duke Philip."

In addition, the armed forces were prepared for bankruptcy after the autumn harvest.

He has become a political rival with the emperor, and therese cannot prevent reckless defeat of the Duke of Nuremberg.

It seems that if you collect and defeat many soldiers, including those around you, you can win, but the Duke of Nuremberg cannot be so sweet.

Therese and their supporters expect the emperor to lose with a fairly high probability.

Everyone, including me, is busy preparing for the duke of Nuremberg to defeat the emperor.

"Wendelin is enviable because of the good economy."

"Is Dukes of Philippine Recessed?"

"I'm a good person, because exporting food is the main industry."

They are exporting short-term food to the area around the Imperial City.

"But I don't make much money because the Imperial Majesty has issued a price control order."

It seems that this is a decree issued by special measures because civil war is ongoing.

Naturally, merchants are complaining, but if they raise food prices by selling and rigging, the security of the imperial capital will be jeopardized.

Poor minions may attack the Imperial government and merchants' food stores in an effort to secure food.

"It's dangerous if the price of food soars now."

"Terese said that too."

As a telese, I have no choice but to agree now.

If you decline, the emperor will end up with a reputation for stiffness.

Taking advantage of the bad reputation, there was also a possibility that something could be launched into the political rival Therese.

"I'm actually doing it now. It's a chance for Therese's brothers to retire her and pass it on to her child."

"Meaningless thing ... maybe for the purpose of breaking friends?"

However, if Therese became emperor, the position of Duke Philip would naturally be free.

It is not worth getting what you can get without spending much time right now against the current owner.

It seems that her brothers are less worried about the imperial policy.

"I guess so. If you have such time, you should increase the number of spies sent to the south .... It's the default route for the Emperor to beat Duke of Nuremberg, so harass Telese in anticipation of the postwar period. I am doing it. "

"It's the last stage ..."

The emperor, who was couped shortly after his throne, has a weak political base anyway.

Therese who is fighting more than Duke of Nuremberg is in the way, but she has to be superficially aware of her working for the Empire.

Perhaps the stress is that the number of soldiers is the only plan to defeat the Duke of Nuremberg, and the entourage like a cob shark who obeys himself.

The peace of mind of the great troops and their toys are tranquilizers.

"It's rude to say this, but those guys are terrible."

"I'm using only the weapon as a weapon. There can be no good people."

Even the nobles who betrayed the PLA, if they were punished because soldiers under command banned looting and assault, they would only be upset.

There was such a person in a company that worked for the previous life.

This may be the fate of a somewhat large organization.

"Therese wanted to meet Wendellin."

But there is no time for each other, and when I and Terese meet each other, the number of people who make extra guesses and make noises increases.

It was not possible at the moment.

"Is it possible that Terese and I work together to drag the Emperor down?-What's this, because I'm not interested in the future of the Empire?

"Yes, Wendelin's."

Until the fall harvest, Earl Mizuho and Alphonse visited us regularly.

There may have been some signs, but the rest is almost bitches.

The impoverished emperor had been working hard to check the number of mobilized troops invading the Duke of Nuremberg, and to order necessary supplies such as food.

Such work is proceeding without any problem because the Imperial Army has talent left.

Despite the fatal weakness of having no money, the power of the empire is still powerful and productive.

Merchants lent money all together because of the authority and tax revenue.

"It's been a long time debt finance. The empire is."

During the National Integration War, once every few years, a deficit-level deficit occurred.

"My Duke of Phillip is barely spinning money. Wendelin is jealous. So why not wear a new maid outfit for your apprentice maid?"

Firine, the secret child of Bleichrader Margin, had women in the servant priests while we were on the battlefield.

She was only nine years old and had nothing to do with her fighting power.

Now, Elise is educating her as a daughter of a noble, and doing simple help.

Because it helps us take care of our surroundings, we usually dressed as maids.

"The maid outfit. It's weird."

"Do you understand, my friend?"

Maid clothes in this world were still developing, with the skirt length close to the ankle and the fabric was rough.

That's why I used my proper opinion as a reference to make an improved prototype between Elise and the town's garment craftsman, and put it on Figline.

"Short skirt length, heavy use of frills, color is not black"

"Alphonse. Maid clothes are basically black, but I think black is the only way to stop thinking."

"I see! It was a blind spot!"

Actually, in the previous life, I was just taken to a shop like that by a senior maid cafe lover.

I think black is probably because of the dirt.

I could do it cleanly with magic, and I thought it would be okay if I made a spare before it was dirty and made it easy to wash.

Today's Figline was wearing a light blue maid outfit.

We also make pink, red, beige, light green, etc. and wear them daily.

Knee socks are worn because the skirt length is short.

This was a tricky measure because there was no technique for knitting stockings.

"They are very popular with customers. There are merchants and nobles who want to sell, so the clothing shop that cooperated with Elise is busy."

We didn't make much money, but our reputation wasn't bad as we added new business stories to the town.

Because you are stationed in another land, you have to be careful.

"No, the Vendelins have a very good reputation."

"Is that so?"

"That's right. The security is good because of the large number of soldiers, and the economy is good with the new porcelain made by Wenderin. The towns and farmlands have been expanded, the roads and river embankments have been improved. That's why the amount of meat and demon ingredients that are available in town has increased. "

During the military training as well, guru, Philip, El, Haruka, Takeomi, Luise, and Vilma led the defeat in the demon territory in the northern part of the town.

`` If you suddenly attack with the entire army, you will die surrounded by hordes of monsters that will surpass it, so you will be swaying with a time difference. ''

Make a group of about 10 people, scatter and rush to hunt monsters.

Leaders also scatter and enter the reinforcements, but basically do not overdo it and order to leave the area as soon as it is in danger.

"Good training for Elle"

Give instructions while watching the movement of small units.

It was good training for Elle, who began learning military command.

I am working hard to increase the number of commanders who can use Philip.

"The Royal Army is strong because he was a soldier. The Army of Mizuho is originally strong and not bad at all. Training is still ongoing."

But more than that, the princes of the Dukes of Nuremberg and their descendants, the southern noble lords, were strong.

Imperial troops invading the territories they protect should struggle considerably.

No, everyone is preparing to lose.

"Alphonse, it's been a long time."

Alphonse didn't just come to me.

Because it was also a messenger from Therese, the people involved gathered together on the night to exchange information.

Therese is not herself, so she is her deputy.

"It seems that Count Schulze is busy."

"I'm in charge of the internal affairs of the town, which is expanding rapidly due to the weather."

The Counts of Schulze, who are unable to return due to various circumstances, are working on daily tasks as the kingdom's internal politics in the city of Sarkat.

Christoph was naturally busy in military affairs, and naturally became such a position.

"It's strange that the town of Surcut is now.

Under the direct control of the Empire, almost all inhabitants are imperial.

But the governing deputies are already working according to the Counts of Schulze.

The reason why this happens is that the emperor has given priority to tax revenues in the town of Sarcutt to block our movement.

The officers are in a strange state of getting paid from us.

I think that as the population has increased and the work has increased, I have paid a temporary bonus from the profit I gained from selling porcelain for a limited time, and I think that is why I can not resist it anymore.

The army is likely to be mostly kingdoms and Mizuhos, except for the original guards.

"Do you mean that the power of gold is great?"

"I say so. By the way, there is such a thing ..."

Alphonse handed me a piece of parchment.

When read, it read, "Overview of the Duke of Nuremberg Operation and Report on Mobilized Forces."

"Is this a confidential document?"

The content itself is an outline, so you can read it in a few minutes.

When everyone read and read, he returned to Alphonse and said Eina was worried about everyone.

"The source is confidential."

"eh!"

"It's a lie. Ina. You can get it normally by going to the Imperial Army headquarters."

"Is that confidentiality protection weak?"

"I admit that it's sweet, but there's a reality that I can't hide it anyway."

Everyone gathers troops on a large scale, and it's easy to find out where to attack from by reconnaissance.

"A lot of people are borrowed."

Elise was surprised at the large number of borrowers in the mobilized soldiers.

It certainly helps reduce military expenditures, but it seems they thought it was too much.

"There are about 300,000 mobilizations, half of which are borrowers. Are there many?"

"Because I'm voluntarily volunteering, and nothing from me."

Originally, the United Kingdom Army, the Duke of Philip, the Duke of Baden, and the Earl of Mizuho have been denied participation.

You may want to prevent further credit.

It is a large force to make up for it and a borrower to reduce costs.

"Northern lords have little participation"

Most of them are teleseists, and it is because of distance issues.

"The main players are the Imperial Army, the lords of the central territory, and the electorate who somehow set up a new head."

It's a revenge battle, and the rewards show and hide your intention to rebuild your finances.

The Imperial Army has helped many coups and many have followed the Duke of Nuremberg.

You want to restore the trust of the emperor.

"What the raccoon dogs do!"

Luise seems to be amazed by the emperors who have already won.

"I really think we can win below."

Therefore, it can be said that there are so many borrowers in the actual war that there is no example in the past.

"Are you successful in this war? This is what a raccoon dog can't get."

Katarina was also amazed, but all of the southern lords were almost entirely crowned and confiscated.

It is likely that various battles are taking place under the water over the share.

"Even in the order of achievement, the emperor wants to give territory and other priorities to his own rearing. There is a massive reorganization of imperial nobility."

From the standpoint of the borrowers, it is a chance for the officer.

To the central army, the government, the vassal of the noble family increased.

You may have volunteered in large numbers, thinking that this is your greatest opportunity.

"It's not just children of the aristocrat. I think that the second son of a commoner is a chance for a commoner's child who has fallen from a noble in the past."

Utilizing their greed, they are gathering large-scale troops at low cost.

"There's no coordination or shit"

"That's exactly what Vilma says. So the strategy is to have three simultaneous invasions."

"What do you think of Wenderin?"

Alphonse asks me a question for some reason.

"Assuming that it's up to the imperial person who is familiar with the local geography to decide where to attack from ... Divide into three and assume 100,000 each. Yeah. "

The limited route that 100,000 people can move together is limited, so the duke of Nuremberg, familiar with the geography of the south and well-versed in the military, should be able to find it easily.

"But it won't be a disadvantage.

Again, the army needs to be divided into three.

Rather, it may be advantageous because the highly capable Duke of Nuremberg can create two corps that are not involved.

Considering the size of the south, it is not possible for the Duke of Nuremberg, who united all the troops, to defeat with a time difference.

"It's still a defense game, so the Duke of Nuremberg has an advantage ..."

"A self-destructive golem that earned a long time against an opponent. If you had a large number of arranging them, it would be a problem if there were other defensive magic tools at bases and so on as they are also defense."

Leaders were also struggling due to their number and timing.

Confusion is inevitable for a subdued army with little combat experience.

"Therese has no choice but to expect to lose."

If true, should we make an effort to reduce the damage by pointing out the possibility in advance?

But it also proves the emperor's power and inability.

I can't say it, I just deny it.

"I don't know unless I actually lose."

"So those who die are pathetic."

"I'm sorry for you. If you lose to Duke Nuremberg, you'll be more pathetic."

Even if the emperor is defeated, Therese is still alive and will always defeat Duke of Nuremberg.

I guess you're sending Alphonse to us to do that.

"Oh yes, because the emperor starts a new harassment for Wendelin."

"What kind of hand is this time?"

"Recently, it's a good measure to increase the burden."

The day after Alphonse leaves the town of Sarcut, a messenger with an imperial edict appears.

He handed over a bag of about 100 gold coins and a letter of appointment to the Commander of the Temporary Defense Guard.

"What is the role of the temporary defense guard commander?"

"According to the messenger, there seems to be no particular job."

Around the town of Sirkat, the emperor seems to ask for security while the troops are dispatched.

I feel the same as before, but it is a formal post.

"Why is that such a mess?"

Elle twisted her neck, but soon she knew the answer.

"Baumeister, Honorable Earl. Hire me!"

"I am confident in the spear!"

Many borrowers have come to the town.

"That kind of thing ..."

At the time of the defeat of the Duke of Nuremberg in the conquest of the Emperor, I gathered those who were unable to participate due to overcapacity and perform security called security maintenance.

It seems that there were too many borrowers than expected.

It seems that they can be called volunteers anymore, but they may be organized to form an army and be treated as a security officer and a reserve in the rear.

"You. It would have been hard if you didn't make a profit on porcelain."

"It's true."

Perhaps the biggest aim is to kill my financial resources, who are considered collaborators of Therese.

Because it is a borrower, you do not need to pay, but you have to pay for food and living.

"That emperor. Don't get frustrated."

Unless the Duke of Nuremberg was that kind of thought, he was a terrible governor who wanted to cooperate with him.

"If you live, you just need to put stone in the vacant lot. It also serves as military training."

"Yes, but will you take over the borrower now?"

"That's so ... I just asked a member of the Kingdom Army ..."

There are too many borrowers, so Luise heard from a soldier who was likely to be familiar with the army.

"I celebrate the borrower, but he's just the third son of a farmhouse. He said he was a nobleman before his fifth generation, but his career was suspicious."

It seems that there are many people who want to take advantage of the war, raise their flag, or have no job.

"I mean, most? I can't use it without training."

"I decided to do it with Luise"

"I asked."

Philipp seems to have asked them.

After about a month of basic training, if a useless person would drop out.

It is said that only those who have passed through it will be formed in a unit, and full-scale training will be performed in the remaining two to three months.

"The emperor should have soldiers by that time. At least the army that we can use will be completed somehow. I also think it's a problem to be totally unpaid."

"I think it's exactly what Philip says."

"Do you agree with El?"

Is it because you are taken care of in commander education?

Elle agreed with Philip's opinion.

"It's good to simply say that borrowers have long been determined to be unpaid, but they're unfair."

(4) The Royal Army, which is treated as a mercenary, is paid a small allowance every week, although it is about pocket money.

It is a measure to prevent the town from looting, stealing, eating and drinking without money because of lack of money.

"How much of a borrower, is it really like a mercenary? If you don't do it a bit, you might do bad things in town."

The wrongdoing follows me, and Elle may be worried about it.

I want to avoid being executed for no worries and at worst in violation of military regulations, being used as material for the emperor's attack.

"That emperor. It's really ridiculous. I'll pay you while you're surviving as an apprentice."

"Yes. Soldiers from the Earl of Mizuho also have extra benefits."

"I would have paid more if I had Earl Bow Meister."

The soldiers of the Earl of Mizuho also receive things like remote allowances in addition to salaries and salaries, so they contribute to the town's economy by shopping when off duty.

Both Haruka and Takeomi seem to have received considerable sums.

I guess that's what I want.

However, if you let me do so far and later defeat the reward, you have to laugh.

"Well, as long as there are few people you can trust at this point, there is no loss in storing your army, because the emperor has allowed it yourself."

As long as there is a power to danger the contact between me and Therese, the worst of the Dukes of Philip cannot be relied on.

You will need to store your own power.

"I agree with the idea of Count Baumeister. By the way, if soldiers come together, the problem is the commander."

"Who have fled from the Royal Army or the Embassy?"

"Because the Kingdom Army was originally an army of 8,000 people, the great guys were killed or captured and executed all over the place. Even a command of 5,000 people is quite impossible. Young I'm educated by selecting senior candidates and veteran non-commissioned officers.

I couldn't say anything to Philip's explanation.

If the Kingdom Army, which has evolved after restructuring and training, is disassembled again, an unusable Uraai crowd will be created.

Raising military personnel is really time-consuming.

"The guys at the embassy are no good. Some of them have been pulled out and reorganized, and there's a lot of people from the military field there. There are no more people to turn around because they have left Christoph and Count Schulze."

Soldiers are not just fighting or training.

Logistics personnel were also needed, and it was Christophe who organized the personnel.

As for Count Schulze, it seemed like he was in charge of half of the governing of the town of Sarcutt in an appropriate extraordinary position.

Although the work increased, the emperor ignored the request from the representative to increase the number of staff because of the shortage of human resources.

"What about Elle?"

"No, I'm leaving Elvin with a squad of a thousand people. I can't move on. I don't know. I think Elvin has the talent to do that, but I can do anything. The same goes for me after the age of thirty, when I finally became confident in commanding thousands of troops.Herka and veteran leaders now help Erwin. He is finally beginning to become a commander, but he is still a young man, 17 years old. Will he overdo it and destroy his future? "

"No, I mean ..."

I don't mean that.

I just wanted to learn to work for the commanders of the Counts of the Baumeister in the future, as he wanted.

"There was a stupid man before. He was a man of limited capacity to command thousands, but his wife's parents' house and surrounding vassal urged him to fight with his brother for the status of a frontier. The result is a lot of sacrifice and shame throughout the kingdom, but still somehow surviving with the title, annoying others that they need to work but that they can do what they can't do. is not"

"Philipp ..."

"I'm guilty that the stupid man had a desire and started fighting without saying anything about the expectations of others. As a result, my brother was involved and fell down together Although he was originally a civilian, he was a poor brother who was associated with such a reckless expedition. "

"Brother ..."

Christoph's eyes were moistened by Philip's surprising confession.

"I'm sorry. Elvin is still half-served.

"I'm sorry. Elle.

Elle leaves my escort role and works hard to learn military command from Philip.

Haruka assisted with that, and sword training was as strict as before.

I thought that I was saying bad things recently, although the time to meet faces has been reduced recently.

"No. Mansion. I wanted it myself."

Since everyone is there, Elle talks to me in a tone as a vassal.

"Make sure to take care of Mr. Philip as well"

"Education at Elvin is a formal job commissioned by Count Baumayter. It doesn't make sense to be crushed by an educator. Don't worry."

Philip replied shyly to Elle.

"And if I have the talent, I don't think it's good for this job."

"Why is this?"

"I'm a king, and I'm a hundred percent imperial.

"That's right ..."

Before ability and aptitude, it is an emotional problem, so the nature is bad.

Some people don't mind, but not everyone.

This could disrupt unity and lead to fatal mistakes on the battlefield.

"When this happens, do you hire imperial people?"

You have to pay a high salary because it is troublesome work, but that may be less troublesome.

"The question is, are there any candidates?"

Count Schulze agrees to supplement the commander with imperial people.

But he also noticed where to find the most problem.

"There is a guess"

"I know who I am"

"It's a certain thing"

It seems that Mr Blantark and his mentor have noticed that my commander was guessing.

"Who is it?"

"Philippines has met before."

A few days later, outside the town of Thurcut, recruitment of borrowers had begun.

After asking your name, place of birth, age, etc., first give 5 pairs of underwear and clothes for each person.

It was just green upper and lower clothes, but the appearance is the jersey itself.

Initially wear this and begin basic training with Luise and Vilma.

Perform running and various basic training.

The menu is a reinforced version of the club activities I was doing as a student.

"Running first"

"What kind of pupil is your supervisor?"

"Hey. I'm going to hit my mouth that looks great. That means I'm stronger than I or Vilma."

Almost everyone looked at them and looked down on them, breaking their nose in the first endurance run.

While everyone is sweaty and suffocating, the two people who ran the same distance have cool faces.

From the perspective of the two, this is really basic training.

"If we are dissatisfied, what about the guru there?"

"Young people. Let's master magical martial arts with a certain person."

The guru who changed into a jersey for some reason talks to them while posing like a bodybuilder.

"... I'm fine with the guidance of Luise and Vilma ..."

The borrowers, who could only imagine the sights of hell in their special training with the mentor, had since obeyed the training.

Basic training is conducted, and those who are excellent in the process are immediately recruited and begin full-scale training.

While forming a unit in cooperation with the Royal Army.

Some of the borrowers were really noble children, so they continued training on the assumption that they had at least ten subordinates.

"The budget is tighter than I thought."

Christophe appears there during a visit during public works and porcelain making.

Logistics support personnel, such as resupply and personnel affairs, are selecting and hiring borrowers who are talented in such systems.

But Christophe was now taking care of the whole thing on a temporary basis because the top was not decided.

"Isn't it crazy to add extras, but why?"

"Because there are many things beyond this assumption"

"That shit emperor, take more care."

I know that you can't take everything to the defeat, but I want you to stop pushing everything you have here.

"But it's not as good as it seems."

Rather, there are many excellent people.

Of course, there is no use, but I felt that the ratio was not different from that of the Imperial Army.

"That's right, because I don't see the suitability of each and every borrower."

If it is not very bad, it will be adopted, and if the number is filled, even the best people will be rejected.

It seems that it is such a hiring situation.

"I thought I decided to look at more people."

"Hundreds of thousands come from all over the empire. If you look at them all, the recruiter will be overworked and there is a limit."

"frame?"

"It is also called a connection."

It seems that there are many cases where nobles and soldiers are forced to hire recruiters to put in people I recommend because they are only borrowers.

"You give priority to those who are distant relatives, small acquaintances, etc. Of course, I do not see abilities."

It can be said that they are subtle connections, but they are still good people.

"If it's terrible, some nobles and soldiers get bribes and hire them."

Because it is a borrower, it should not be possible to pay that much.

From the income earned in other jobs, bribes of about 50 to 100 cents are given to secure recruitment.

"The amount is delicate."

"Even if it's 100 cents per person, if you have 1,000 back recommendation slots, it's 100,000 cents. Is it good to earn money? I asked the hired military officer under me who was interesting. I'm Count Carvin. "

He lives in the Imperial City and is the head of the county of Hoi Yi, a military family for generations.

At the time of the coup, he rubbed against the Duke of Nuremberg, and after the liberation of the Imperial City, quickly flourished with the emperor and preserved his position.

In this dispatch, the emperor has left the hiring of borrowers to the discretion.

"It was worth the emperor."

"He's asking the employer for a bribe behind the scenes, and he's spending 200 cents each, because he'll need to allocate to the contributing vassals and children too. It was said that it was rumored. ''

It is said that if you pay, you will surely be hired, so even though you are poor, many borrowers paid crying and crying.

After all, about 50,000 people paid 200 cents.

"A total of 10 million cents. Even if you paid half for the co-workers, Earl Carvin won 5 million cents."

"It's a villain ..."

"There is no shortage of such people in the emperor's surroundings."

Few people are terribly incompetent, and many are small villains with good ability to discern profits and interests.

The Duke of Nuremberg and others say they are like garbage bugs.

"That's a good luck, because some people come here because they don't like bribes but they are good."

In a real sense, if there were too many to come, you might have to thank Count Carvin in a sense.

"The bottom and the middle are somewhat aligned, but the problem is the commander."

The number of borrowers' applications has somehow far exceeded expectations.

Ten thousand will surely exceed.

In the case of, it is necessary to secure the human resources to lead it.

"I'm going to come today ... I'm here."

The person appeared at the time he had promised.

"Did Poppek?"

Christophe was relieved, knowing that the commanding candidate I said was Poppek.

He had already confirmed his skill.

At the same time as we returned to the town of Thurcut, he was disbanding that old man-based mixed lord and returning to his territory.

Right now, I'm supposed to be busy promoting trade with the town of Sarcut, but I forcibly asked for a job as a commander.

I was happy to accept it.

"In the connection of the Imperial military age, we have also gathered former military personnel."

Behind him are a dozen older military personnel.

Most of them were 50- to 60-year-olds like him, but one of them was a strong middle-aged man with a physique comparable to a guru.

The whole body is wrapped in steel-like muscles, and is a person who painted a typical military figure in a picture.

The blond was a military man's standard square cut with a strict face like a rock cut out.

Not only that, he has a buster sword on his back and his skill seems to be amazing.

Depending on how you look, it looks like a great adventurer.

"I'm a former imperial soldier, the quasi-baron Gilberto Cajetan von Bonhof, who was called 'General of the Gore.' I had been teaching as a senior for a few years before I took over the title and returned to territory."

"I was very much taken care of by my seniors."

"He also climbed up to the generals, but a few years ago his son Baron Bonhof had lost his family below the head of the plague, and he returned in a hurry."

Although he was an excellent and third son as a soldier, he had earned himself a knight, but he returned to his territory without succeeding in allowing his family to break off and took over the second rank.

Rural territories rather than central generals.

I feel like the former is better, but for a nobleman, breaking a house may be closer to a trauma.

"This is a civil war if we finally succeed in rebuilding the territory. Duke Nuremberg was honestly invited to rebels."

"I'm here because I refused."

I think you didn't show up when you were laying military service in the town of Sarcut.

"He was the head, and he was eager to be invited by the Duke of Nuremberg, so he didn't show up to the Earl of Baumister at first."

"Can you help me now?"

"I was at a loss from the invitation of the Duke of Nuremberg. Which is better, the modest quasi-baron or the confidant of the rebel Duke of Nuremberg, who might rule the empire with power ..."

Every human has greed.

Bonhov, who had climbed up to a general with his own strength, had to abandon his career for his parents' home.

I think that there were various things to think about for the territory.

"I hate the majority of Imperial leaders. I was sparse."

The third son of the Baron was filling one seat of the general.

“Saucy on the edge of lower aristocrats! ], It is not hard to imagine that he was sparsely occupied by other aristocratic noble families.

"Still, I couldn't make the decision to duke Nuremberg. I couldn't answer the question of whether I was right to command the army, even about the rebels."

He did not join the Duke of Nuremberg. He was invited by Poppek to run the territory while rotting the territory.

"If you ask, will you command more than a thousand troops?"

"I think it's rude to the people of the empire, but it's just a gathering of borrowers and bitters, and I'm just pushing the hard work on others.

They're pushing people who could be a factor in worsening security and putting them together to prevent evil during the defeat of Duke of Nuremberg.

There were many excellent people when we hired them, but they couldn't participate in subjugation and could be called cold food.

It was not an army under the control of two former generals.

"That's okay. Does Count Baumeister expect another turbulence?"

"Uh……"

Looking at Poppek, he had a meaningful smile.

"Don't judge Gilbert by his sight. I think he's a soldier no less than Duke of Nuremberg."

"It's probably a senior buyer."

"Isn't that good. I think that's what I want. So I'm going to be a commander with him as commander."

"Huh? Is that OK?"

Despite Bonnoff's commanding talent, Poppek wonders if he is nearly 20 years old and willing to stay younger.

"If you kill Gilbert's talent for that reason, wouldn't he be the same as the fools of the Imperial City, and I'm originally a man in the staff field, because I need a 'genki' to command the great army. That would be the limit with thousands of people. ''

"Is that kind of thing ..."

"That's it."

Looking back at the voice, there was a figure of Philip with his guru.

"I saw it after a long time. There is a general who is a general."

"A general of the general?"

"It's the limit of the military talent."

According to Philip, humans will all reach a certain point as they continue their military efforts.

"It's like having no talent to lead a person, a few people with limitations, tens or hundreds of people.

In military nobles, hundreds of people can be commanded by the inherited education if they are not too stupid.

Sometimes there is an idiot who can't help you, so let it be a commander of a decoration and leave it to your subordinates.

In a peaceful world, there is still no inconvenience.

"My young guys?"

"Several years older than Elvin, hundreds of people are at a limit. In fifteen years, thousands will be fine, because they are children of a military aristocrat, the kingdom's name. Will do something. ''

Speaking of which, Tristan, Cornelius, Felix, etc. had their children and relatives who serve their parents' homes as jury members.

Lower class nobles and people from the commoners are unlikely to be able to command hundreds of troops because they lack the initial education and assistance.

That is why there are many senior commanders in senior commanders.

"So, what is Bonhov's Baron?"

"So it's the general's general vessel. I've been confident that I'll be able to manage up to about 20,000 people in about 10 years. No wonder if Baron Bonhof is leading a hundred thousand army, it's called "genki". "

It was a setting that I heard in the story of the Army, but I could only understand it because I was an amateur in the military.

"I haven't seen it directly, but also the Duke of Nuremberg. He has the skill of commanding a small to large army. He is a genius in the military."

"That's how it feels."

If I stopped there and ended up being a good soldier, I wouldn't have had to struggle so much.

`` Pop Bark Bonhof is the commander, and Poppek, who is a highly capable staff member, will be assisted by the most chic.

"I don't mind if Poppek is satisfied with that."

With the advice of Philip, the Imperial Army, who had gathered the borrowers, was in charge of the command of Baron Bonhof and Poppek.

Well, we don't know how many troops will come, but we have to feed them anyway.

For mass production of porcelain, secure meat imports by hunting monsters, promote trade, maintain the food import system, and increase the number of people will have to proceed with town development.

"As Philip says, Duke of Nuremberg and Gilbert may be great soldiers, but the scarier one is Earl Baumeister."

"I agree with the guru's opinion."

With the remarks of Guru and Philip, everyone on the spot looks at me.

"Your Majesty has rejected the reward for Earl Baumeister and removed him from the Battle of Duke of Nuremberg, but you are the best Joker for Duke of Nuremberg."

"What? I?"

I couldn't understand what Bonhov was saying.

Music may be possible with magic, but it will be less effective if the enemy has more than one wizard.

There was no commanding capability of the army, and the sword arm was refreshing, so I didn't think it would be very useful as a commander.

"You're an excellent wizard and it's hard to kill. You'll earn money and soldiers will come to you, and some of you will be able to use it. At first glance, even if you try to mislead money and supplies and try to save money, you will soon be unable to understand why you can be resilient and young. ''

"Even though I'm just leaving it, the army is built on its own. The Duke of Nuremberg may be afraid of Count Baumeister."

"Is that so……"

Whatever you are afraid, you have to die because you have turned to my enemy.

That kind of hand is not good if you keep it alive.

"Anyway, I'll leave the Imperial men to the Baron Bonhof."

"It's short, but we'll do something."

Bonnoff was appointed commander of the borrowers with Poppek as his assistant.

According to the emperor's order, the army is described as an "independent unit responsible for maintaining security in the central empire."

Because it is independent, it should not be a problem unless you gather a great army, and because it is also independent, I have paid for lunch for a while with lunch.

I thought I would release magic even if I lost profitability, but all expenses would be settled later.

Of course, he said that he would get rewards commensurate with his achievements.

I didn't get any copper coins until now, as I did in the PLA era, and the only thing I got was the old clothes worn by the old emperor, which made me anxious.

"But it's more than expected."

About two weeks after Bonnoff's Baron became commander of the Imperial Guard, a large number of borrowers were still crowded in the town of Sarkat.

Apparently, the reputation of Bonhov as a soldier seems to be extremely high.

Despite several years after retirement, many volunteers were packed.

The executives who assist in conducting seem to be gathering steadily in the old claw.

Basic training, military training, expansion of towns and forts, hunting of wildlife and monsters, and a detailed plan set up by the chief of staff, Poppek, all went well.

"But is it okay to collect 20,000 people?"

"That emperor, how popular is it?"

Now that he can concentrate solely on commanding the Royal Army, Philip is amazed at the number of borrowers and volunteers who are coming one after another.

"If you have the power to feed, will people come together?"

Expenses have been managed by selling porcelain and apparel products.

Since she provided herself with food, clothing and shelter efficiently and only gave her pocket money, she was barely making a profit.

Of course, detailed invoices are kept, including those from the Telese period, for later billing.

"When Gilberto spearheads, the army fits in. Indeed, the generals are well-known."

Recently, a guru who has contributed to the finances by hunting many powerful monsters has been impressed by seeing Mr. Gilberto spearheading in military training.

A man with a similar appearance and a talent for commanding one army and the other, and a man with the best fighting ability in the world.

I considered the possibility that everyone, including me, would not be willing, but at the first meeting…

"What is your name?

"Klimt Christoph von Armstrong"

"A man called the ultimate weapon of the kingdom?"

"Is it you Gilbert Cajetan von Bonhof?

"That's it"

When we introduced ourselves to each other, the two lay down on the spot and started wrestling for some reason.

The mentor does not use magic but fights with his own strength.

“Why arm wrestling? ], We were playing a game almost equally.

Even though, it just doesn't move.

A few minutes later, they release their arms and stop the game.

"Don't do it. you"

"You are also"

There seems to be a way to build friendship in the martial arts.

I don't think I can understand it forever.

"Thank you for coming. Let's say we have a cup today. "

"Please don't hesitate to take it. I don't drink a lot ”

"Some are so. dont 'worry"

I'm glad I have already been appointed commander, but they still walk to the tavern in the town in the evening.

"Are good friends beautiful?

"here we go? "

Christoph, a literate human like me, leaned down, but they seemed to drink from that to dawn.

Still, it was great that I didn't hinder my next day's work, but he gave me a terrible souvenir.

The next morning, when I was checking the documents easily, an old man in a town tavern appeared with a bill.

"It is for the guru and the companion. Anything will be paid by Baumeister ... "

"I?

For some reason, all of the drinks were borne by me.

Say, or I don't remember giving such permission.

When I looked at the bill given to the grandfather at the bar, it showed a ridiculous figure of 25,670.70 cents.

Indeed, I'm paying anyway, so there's nothing wrong.

"Is drinking over 10,000 cents?

"Because they left a barrel of 50-year-old brandy of our store secret"

"... Do they not know the word shy …… ”

The mentor contributes to the finances by monster hunting, and Gilbert is an intractable person.

I thought about once, and paid the amount of the bill.

I'm stupid if I get on the track and do the same thing many times, but since I've taken care of it, I haven't done that since.

Indeed, I was convinced, in a way, that this was a good soldier.

"The 50-year-old brandy that Count Baumeister gave me was delicious."

"Don't drink such valuable things in barrels."

Although she was paid, the grandfather at the bar was a bit depressed that she could not serve other guests.

Because a thing is a thing, it may not be an item that can be obtained by paying for money.

"Count Baumeister, it's no use for a man like you to care about the details."

"It hurts. Guru. My shoulder hurts."

"Ahahaha! There is not enough training yet!"

There were many twists and turns, and I ended up holding troops in the empire almost independently.

How will this later relate to my future?

It was still unknown to anyone.
