I Was Reincarnated as a Poor Farmer in a Different World, so I Decided to Make Bricks to Build a Castle - Chapter 222

You wanted to see me, Carlos?

Ars. Thank you for coming. You've heard about this, haven't you?

"I heard from Leon that Carlos protected the king.... are you okay?

What do you mean, okay?

"It means as it is, Carlos. Protecting the King's stature would mean being stared at by three aristocracies. Some of the nobles actually tried to secure the king by force, okay?

"Honestly, it was a difficult decision. But it was also a story that I couldn't refuse. I certainly think you're afraid."

Really? What is Fontana going to do in the future?

"For a while now, I will cut my hands on the nobles. Time can be bought through the unknown, and above all, the three aristocracies of the example should not move quickly because they control each other's movements. In the meantime, I want to eliminate any risk."

"Risk?

"That's right. If another House of Lords invades us, there is something we cannot ignore to prevent it. Do you know where that is?

"... Urk and Arbarest."

"That's right. Two noble houses located east and west of Fontana. That's where the three great nobles tied their hands. So, I have something for you to do. How much power can Barca mobilize now?

"I wonder if it's about 1,500 at most now. I wonder...."

"Exactly. Barca invades the east with all her forces and defeat Ulk. As soon as possible before the nobles move out."

Uh, I thought Carlos was gonna say something weird the moment he called.

But is this still the case?

Would you be angry if I refused?

Apparently, Carlos is being pushed into a situation that cannot be pulled back.

If the situation gets so bad, I wish I hadn't accepted the king.

However, the instructions given by Carlos are not wrong when judging from the current situation.

Eliminate the closest enemies before any other Grand Nobles look at Fontana.

Fontana has had difficulty expanding its territory to the north due to the large forests, but on the contrary, there is no fear of being attacked from behind.

In that case, if we keep the east and west under control, it would be better to turn our attention to the south at least no matter which noble house comes.

And in last year's battle, western Arbarest territory was acquired by dropping the impenetrable Paramedian fortress.

Paraméa is one of the gates to the Arbarest Territory, as well as the exit from the Arbarest Territory.

In other words, there is little risk of Arbarest attacking us at this time.

In other words, in the east and west, the Ulk family in the east is more likely to get in the way.

"But if you're going to invade the House of Ulk, will you have a cause? Even if Barca enters the Ulk territory for no reason, even if there is no cause for victory, he will not remain in power. It's not going to stabilize the east, is it, Carlos?

"I know. To do this, I use the seeds I sowed last year. You remember that, don't you? You have given false information to the Uluk territory."

"Oh, are you trying to tailor a double agent who was in contact with a traitor in Fontana? Have you made any progress since then?

"Exactly. It seems to have worked better than we thought. They already recognize him as an enemy in Uluk territory, and he seems to be in a position more like a needle. I'm starting to cry."

"I see. So you're using the Knight of Ulk who was connected to the Fontana? Do you feel like you're going into Uluk territory to rescue a request from the Knight of Uluk?"

"That's fine. I'm really asking Fontana for help and sending her a letter. I've been told to swear allegiance to Fontana when we get help."

"... that's amazing. Can you trust someone like that?

"You don't have to trust me. I'd appreciate it if I could use it, and if I were to swear allegiance and act for Fontana, I'd appreciate it. But I won't forgive you for betraying us."

"Well, whatever you do, you can rescue the betraying knight and take down the Ulk territory. I see. Let's do it."

"Well, that's unexpected. I thought you might say you don't want to fight any more."

"No, I don't want to fight too aggressively, but the situation is also the situation. Besides, if I do merit, you'll get your territory, won't you, Carlos?

"Nh, are you finally interested in the territory? I don't mind. Once Barca has cut off the Ulk territory, I will promise you the right territory."

"Thank you very much. In fact, although my brother's part-time job left the Baltic house independently, I was concerned that there was no territory for me. Let's just go."

"What, are we going to fight now?

"Yes, Carlos. For a long time, Barca has become a standing army, not an army that brings together farmers. It won't take long to fight. Now if you'll excuse me."

Thus the third battle between the Uluks and the Balkans broke out.
