The meeting proceeded as I presented the general plan.
However, it was argued that targeting the cat tribe would draw in the winged tribe and the humans, leading to another war.
It was a natural conclusion.
From a positional standpoint, it would be difficult to jump over the cats.
In terms of position, it was something like this.
Cat -> -> winged -> human
I guess that’s part of the reason why they pulled back.
They’re really shrewd cats.
But since the attack failed once, it is unlikely that they will attack again.
Everyone is now thinking independently.
I’m very happy about that.
It was also discussed that it would be a bad idea to forcefully reach out and attack the cat tribe.
""
Whenever the meeting reached an impasse, Charles would usually ask.
“What’s the matter, Milord?”
Well, that’s what happens.
It can’t be helped.
“Well, shall we apply pressure in another way?”
They all looked at me as if they were waiting for me.
I can’t give you the right answer for everything.
“Shall we build a fort for defense?”
“Hoh, a fort, you say?”
“We’ll build forts in areas that could be important strategic locations. We’ll turn them into towns in the future. We’ll also build roads to increase the efficiency of transportation and the speed of our march.”
“Roads are good, but won’t it be more trouble than they’re worth if the enemy attacks?”
It’s a matter of weighing up the risks and rewards.
“I’ll close my eyes to that. We just have to make it impossible for them to attack us. Besides, ……”
“Besides? What is it?”
“If we get into a situation where we’re constantly worried about being attacked, it’s too late to do anything about it.”
Charles nodded admiringly.
“I see. You’re really an unusual person.”
“The best way to save money on defense is to make it difficult for your opponent to attack you. I’m not saying anything strange. It’s the difference between putting out a fire after it’s started and the effort it takes to prevent it.”
Hearing this, Charles seemed to be astonished.
“I’m afraid you’re going to be called weird nicknames again.”
Give me a break, I can’t remember them anymore ……
The teacher’s face turned into that of an evil brat.
“Maybe we should put up a notice in the town next time. A list of the kiddo’s names.”
Please don’t do that.
I don’t want it to be official!
“Building the statue …… should I make it the top priority?”
“W-Well, …… let’s …… leave that aside …… and, building a fort, huh. Are you going to get that thing?”
The teacher stepped aside.
But …… I didn’t say I wouldn’t build the statue.
What’s that? I don’t know what that is.
“What’s the thing?”
“You see, it’s that anti-winged tribe trap the kid was singing about, the night schoolhouse something. We call it “The Night Schoolhouse”, though.”
Geh …… I’ve been heard.
My Black history leaks moderately ……
But if I get upset here, that’s exactly what they want.
I’ll let it go without a care.
“You’re talking the fragment of glass. I think it’s a good idea, although I’m sure they’ll be wary of it. We will not be able to communicate through the messenger, though.”
Charles confirmed this while agreeing with me.
“We’ll think another way for that. Are you sure you want to set up a fortress to pressure the cat tribe?”
“Yes, that’s fine. But don’t put too much pressure on them. I’d like to leave it to Sir Rossi to set up the fort.”
Charles grinned.
“I see. The more women we have in town to make love to, the more good ideas we’ll have.”
So they were looking forward to the prostitutes.
I guess I should explain my plans for the building.
“The port has been put on the back burner. The number of people will probably only increase after the port is built …… In any case, the construction of the sanatorium is the top priority.”
“And what do you mean by not pressure them?”
“It’s a position where the cat tribe will be wary, but the winged tribes and the humans in the back will be hesitant to send out their forces.”
Charles grinned at me when he saw my intentions.
“You’re as bad as ever, aren’t you?”
A question mark appeared on Touko’s head.
“What are your intentions?”
You’re not familiar with my strategy yet.
I guess I’ll explain it to him.
“I’ll incite the cat tribe to divide internally. I’ll make them even more impatient and urge the winged tribe and humans to fight together. By doing this, it will split them apart. If we do this, time will be on our side. We don’t have to push too hard, and victory will come to us.”
Touko sighed.
“No wonder we can’t win.”
It’s just that time has stopped progressing in this world and hasn’t developed strategic thinking.
If we can build a society that is not surprised by this kind of thing, it will not be easily destroyed.
