I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle

"Eight aristocratic territories could be dropped after all. You've got five left."

"Enough is enough, Arus. Rather, I've never heard of such a short span of territory from that battle."

"I guess. For that reason, it's going to be a question of whether we can manage it."

"Sure, you're right. What are you going to do with the territory you have acquired?

Hmm, will we rearrange again? The survivors of the aristocrats who took the land will be relocated to the city of Fontana and the three frontier territories of Xylia, Burma and Ikes will be re-sealed in the vacant land. We will award two Noble Territories from this newly acquired territory. So let's make the remaining two territories Graham territory of Leon. "

"Can the Grahams get their territory?

"Ah, Leon has been playing Garrod-sama's role since this year, right? Then we should get the territory we deserve. This cut will be considered proven because he commanded the army."

"If you say so, isn't that Ars? The Barca family is the most accomplished in Fontana. Shouldn't the Barca family's territory be increased?

"Hmm. I wonder what happened to Balkan territory... I don't think I'll ever complain about giving myself land."

"Surely there are not many people who say that. But it's a problem that you can't get territory by being as active as Ars. You should be rewarded for your work."

"Then I'll have the Arbarest district opened by House Ikes. There's plenty of water, so it looks like rice making is going to go even further."

"I see. The Arbarest district was originally divided between the Ikes and the Barres, but you got it. I see. I will also submit the agenda to the council for others' approval."

"Oh, that would be great, Leon."

The battle against the Northern Alliance of Nobles, which began at Wagner's request for relief, came to a close.

After that, Fontana succeeded in cutting off eight aristocratic territories after pushing up the front lines and continuing to march against even the most important aristocratic strongholds.

This may also be related to the strength of the new army, but I think the biggest impact was the military reform that we have been carrying out.

In the general nobility, knights and samurai gather peasants to form a group and lead them into an army.

However, in the Fontana army, the conscripted soldiers were put together in pairs of five and combined into platoons, squadrons, battalions, etc., switching the army to operate systematically.

In addition, by combining the functions of soldiers and squadrons according to applications such as engineers, cavalry, communicators, and scouts, and giving them appropriate magic, they were able to operate much more systematically than before.

For this reason, Kyle and the Leon armies, which had no additional combat power, such as rock dropping from airships and Atmos warriors, were also winning over the northern aristocracy and cutting off territory.

Well, I had a pleasant victory because my troops, including many knights, were lost from those aristocracies in the battle.

Anyway, we succeeded in acquiring eight noble territories.

But there is also a problem.

Thus far, the kingdom of Fontana was the seven noble territories of the Urk Arbarest Carmas Rubitch Hermes Boutika, starting with the former Fontana territory.

That's how we got eight Noble Territories in this Fast Forward.

Simple areas are not comparable, but roughly speaking the country will expand more than twice as much.

The question arises as to whether such things can be maintained.

Besides, there are some that can't be ignored as long as we deal with this kind of aristocracy.

It's the Rheinzats.

As a hegemonic nobleman, the Rheinzats form an alliance with Royal Doren and have influence over other nobles.

Originally, hegemonic aristocracy also played a role in conflict resolution when other aristocracy were attacked.

He would do a lot of things to order them to fight each other's struggles, or to return the bases they had taken.

In that case, they may also speak out in this fight between the Kingdom of Fontana and the Northern Alliance of Nobles.

Well, I'm sure you're going to lose it.

Because the remaining aristocracy of the Confederation of Northern Aristocrats cries out to the Rheinzats.

In other words, we need not only to control and govern the newly acquired land, but also to prepare for the Rheinzats.

I think this is quite a big deal.

So, as I've done before, I decided to move the territory of three houses in the status of Border Count.

The Mexican family, led by Wagner, moved from the former Hermes realm to two aristocratic realms in the south-east.

Take Elance of the Burmese family, who was entrusted with the former Rubić realm, to the two aristocratic realms south.

Ghana, the House of Ikes, which ruled half of the former Arbarest realm, will also be transformed into a southwestern noble realm.

And I'll leave it up to you to defend your backs when you need to place the Graham house in Leon.

This means that when the Linzats attack, the Border Territories must respond first.

Instead, the territory has been increased to two aristocratic territories, and as always, it will be free to cut, so there is a possibility that it can be further increased.

If you don't like it, you may abandon your status as a frontier uncle and live as a nobleman belonging to Fontana.

But apparently, when I waved this story, Wagner, Elance and Ghana agreed.

In this way, the kingdom of Fontana became a great power with territory comparable to that of the great aristocracy, from what was formerly an independent region of the north.
