If you thought it was two days later, you came the next day, Count Bozes and 500 soldiers of the county.

Fast! I guess it was the night the messenger arrived, but did you leave just a few hours later?

No, than that, if you can come so much, food!

Yeah, the main squad still follows?

Stop it! Let me turn back! !

Pia, do you have a train unit, right?

We have no ability to manage large numbers of prisoners for a long time, so we will transfer them to the Earl Countries. That is definitely easier.

If you relocate to the royal capital, it will not go soon, and I think most of the POWs will be left here.

Because you have to teach me how to operate the ship. How to operate the first naval warship in Japan.

And the day after Count Bozes arrived, the Marquis Eibringers arrived.

No, three days from the capital will be too fast! Did you just overdo it ...?

e? Did you bring the martial army, not the marquis' territorial army? A march alone, no trains, and a forced march while resupplying in towns and villages along the way?

Did the soldiers stop forcibly marching if they had to return the benefit of being helped by the Royal Defense Battle? Is that so…….

For the time being, let the soldiers and horses rest.

Enemy? All were taken prisoners ...

Well, don't be so disappointed.

That's why, after the Marquis has a breath, the latest information is gathered.

The information from the officers who were left on the ship, the information obtained from the group of soldiers, and the information from the wiretap and recorder installed in the officer's room made it possible to generally understand the enemy country. ing.

"... So, the kingdom of Vanel seems like a normal aggressive marine state."

"Aggressive, normal?"

"It's pretty normal. If you're weaker than you, you're in a colony. If you're on the equal side, you're a trading partner.

"" ... ""

"In the case of Japan, it would have been a colonial pattern, but this time the enemy commander tried to treat the treasures and slaves back home when they returned home in the Arc de Triomphe."

"Is Japan a weak country?"

"It's a weak country ..."

Quiet, Marquis and Earl.

The atmosphere is dark ....

"Even though it is weak, the size of the country is not small and the people are not weak! Just the presence of ships, guns and cannons!"

"I guess it's big ..."

Encouragement, failure ...

"How much time do you think you have?"

I was asked by the Count, but it's difficult ...

"Well, I think it's a couple of years at the earliest, or about seven to eight years at the latest, until I'm worried that I'll make a mistake and forget about the pain that I've had. Maybe it's ... there's a lot to do with the political and financial situation of the country and the politics with neighboring countries, so to be honest, I can't predict at all ... "

The Count and the Marquis consider wrinkles on their foreheads.

Is it going to take out a help boat soon?

"It's okay! I hope our Navy is ready by then!"

"'Navy of Japan?"

The two voices overlapped.

"Yes, there are. Three warships anchored offshore."

""e………""

I explained.

To own three thirds of the ownership of each of the three ships, the State, Count Bozes, and I.

We conduct marine trade in parallel with training, and divide profits into three.

To build shipyards and ports in Bozes territory and to build warships on their own.

Develop weapons stronger than enemies.

I don't really want to help with weapon progress. But otherwise, the country will be invaded. When Collet and Sabine are still growing up.

At that time, what do young girls do with the invaders?

No, no, no! That would not be acceptable!

And without a gun, you will fight with a sword, and without a sword, you will fight with a club. Chopping a weapon does not mean that battles and war dead will be reduced.

Already, there are guns and cannons in this world. I do not bring myself.

I don't intend to take responsibility until after I die, but I want to protect those around me only while I'm alive.

""e……""

Two people whose voices are ready again. As expected, it is good friend.

"I have such interests ... is it good?"

"Can you give me a bite?"

Pia, it wasn't ready this time.

Marquis, as expected, a high-ranking nobleman, a good person, but he's solid.

"Then, you're in full control of the navy on the part of the country. If I so ask, I'll probably pass. Please take advantage of it."

"Please leave it!"

Yeah, it would be tough if you were in charge of money or a weird aristocrat for your interests. Even here, Marquis Eibringer is safe. The king's trust is strong and he is sufficient for his rank.

"Probably that ship is two-line class or less, because we won't be launching a new warship in such a dangerous beating. So the ship we build will be two steps above that. Please leave it to me.

The shipbuilding engineer will probably look for a shipwright among the POWs for repair. If you don't have it, you have to do your best with the national shipwright ... "

Considering the difficulties ahead, the Earl nodded with a reduced expression.

In addition, the Earl received the approval of various things.

Maintenance of the road connecting the house and Bozes territory.

No, it will prosper rapidly as a naval port in the future, the birth of a major consumption area. There is no way to miss it. It is only a day's walk on the current road, but if you maintain it, you can pull a rear car with a rudimentary bicycle ...

If you can't get to the royal city for 24 hours, but only a few hours to Bozes, Randy could make it. If it is difficult to make a chain, there are belt drive using slime rubber or leather, and shaft drive.

In addition, permission to operate a small trading boat that connects our fishing village to a port in Bozes territory. Before building a large ship, let's build a small high-speed sailing ship called practice.

Why not build a naval port on your territory?

No, first of all, the population is too small to support the growing development.

Also, I don't want to see many devastating people coming in.

I don't want to make a lot of money.

It would be nice if you could live happily and relaxedly with your good friends, have enough money to save you from worrying about your old age, and eat delicious food.

If you lose free time and enjoyable life in exchange for unnecessary money, you will fall.

Therefore, if you are busy, dealing with rough people, deteriorating security, or destructing the environment, all will be presented to the Earl! Since the Earl's territory is large and large in population, you will probably want to transfer the money you earned at the naval port to other areas to improve the lives of the territory, if you are an Earl.

Look, you have to accept some disadvantages, right? Fufufu.

"Oh, please take me to the prisoners, Earl territory! There are no buildings to house. We are really poor in the open air .... Aside from ordinary soldiers, sailors are important human resources who are taught to maneuver. That's why "

In the end, the Marquis brought all the landing groups, including the commander, back to the royal capital, and the others took them to Bozes. The Landing Guy looks good at my abilities and submachine guns, so I'm just fine because I don't want to be with other POWs. The commander needs to take responsibility for the war, so go to dungeon in the royal capital.

Well, officially, we're still at war with the kingdom of Vanell. Even if the people of the Vanel kingdom do not know that fact at all.

Until I go to the royal capital, I repeat my daily routine of returning to prison without being able to understand the language and being unilaterally blamed for unknown words. It will be a sad day.

But that is a situation that the man invited himself, so it's self-owned.

After that, I went offshore with a fishing boat together with the Earl and Marquis, and examined various documents, diaries, nautical charts, etc., to confirm the location and size of the kingdom of Vannel, the arrangement of neighboring countries, and others.

The contents of the vault were overtaken by the transfer, while they were examining another room.

The gold coins were just right. I wonder if I would buy supplies at the port of call or pay the crew.

Thank you very much.

I hope you have enough gold. No, no.
