Director's office of the laboratory before noon.
... yeah, that's okay.
Okay, next. "
Takeshi's job of clearing documents sloppily on his desk is dull.
It was only in the morning that Ascena celebrated Alice's pregnancy with a bouquet of flowers labeled "All Kitamizato Family Employees" prepared from somewhere. After that, Meyer also left a basket labeled "All Laboratories" and bouquets of flowers from the examination platoon in the director's office. After that, nothing in particular happened, and it was a job.
"Excuse me, Director."
Knocking on the open door, Meyer walks in.
"Please ~, I'll ask you after I've finished watching."
Please wait until then. ”
Takeo glances at Meyer and then turns to the paperwork.
Meyer sits on the sofa without saying anything.
"... I see, okay."
Takeo nodded and then signed.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
Have you finished your morning meeting? ”
Takeo stood up and headed for the sofa.
“Yes, it's been a long time since we were on the main agenda to talk about this and confirm our plans for the future.
I have been able to list the placement and defense methods of each nobleman in my customary warfare, as well as how to support them in the event of an attack.
Please check.
After the station manager confirms, he will send it to the test platoon for their own confirmation. ”
Place the paperwork in front of Takeshi, where Meyer sat.
"I understand.
So, how about forging defensive positions and scouting at night? ”
“It will start the meeting at the meeting this evening.
The outline has been communicated to Andersen, so... well, I think the first meeting will be to let everyone know the previous stage of the assumption and think about it before the next time.
By the way, I think the test platoon is writing a report now. ”
I see… What do you think of the method of slowing down the invasion using 4m of embankment, 2m of deep moat, and rejecting horses?
"... I can't say anything.
Facilities as a base would be good.
But we have a force of 10.
Whether you can immediately build up your positions to that extent... "
"By the way, it has been revealed that the Elvis family will also adopt the method of slowing down the invasion using reject horses."
If you can make it over there, the unit price will be cheaper.
Therefore, it is said that products that can be made relatively easily to make large quantities are good.
This time, it seems to be quite a defensive policy. ”
"I see, the power of the assault should be softened, and only a few people should respond at once."
... I know how to think.
Proactively install rejecting horses.
What do you think would be good as a station director? "
Meyer nodded.
... the explanation... I'll tell Tete later, so please listen to the bell tone.
I see.
"Also, it's a cloth with Ralph's SL-05 liquid applied to it, but it may be used at key locations within our base in time."
Is it a tent?
"I don't know how much commercialization is possible.
But this time, for example, I'm going to take a carriage loaded with containers.
If you attach the edge of the cloth to the top of the container and lower it down, the resting place will be ready. ”
"Are you going to replace the skeleton with a container?"
However... no matter how large the cloth is, even if you just pull it down, the cloth height is low even if you are sitting down.
Therefore, I think that the resting area is not directly below the edge of the container, but at the edge of the resting area, it is good to make some kind of wood to create a basement, and then stick the cloth horizontally until that point, and after reaching the base portion, lower it to create a space. "
“Let's hire them.”
Takeo nods.
"Is it hiring?"
Meyer said with a little shock.
"Yes, it's a good idea, so it's a hire."
Well, maybe we should take the test and think about the skeleton, etc. "
"That's right.
Pre-examination will be important.
How many containerized carriages do you want to take with you? ”
"... a minimum of one and a maximum of four units, right?"
At a minimum, I would like to test items with kitchenettes. ”
Okay, well, if there are up to four of them, I need eight horses, and maybe four riders. ”
"That's right.
... by the way, Mr. Meyer, can I ride two people on a horse? "
Director, what did you come up with?
"No, the fastest way we can get around is by horse, right?"
Therefore, if there is a person who controls the horse and a person who shoots behind it (...), you can deploy the maximum firepower at the fastest speed and leave at the fastest speed, right? "
"How do you operate a small gun?
How about moving alone and shooting? ”
"After stopping, I took out the small gun that I was carrying, loaded it with bullets, shot it, and carried it on my back.
Rather, it loads bullets on the move, fires at the same time as it stops, and leaves immediately.
Don't you think it's going to be safer? ”
“I understand what you're saying.
Besides, it is possible if it is not possible.
But I don't think two soldiers can give you the maximum speed.
There's no saddle for two soldiers, and you'll need to get used to the horses. ”
“On the other hand, if you can saddle up and get used to training, I think they say that if you take the time to do it, it will take shape.”
Takeo told Meyer.
"... well, you'll have to do it.
However, I think it would be quite expensive to ask for a saddle made to order. "
"Is it a cost... hah, the cost is bulky."
What is the matter with you? "
"It must be the director's skill to make it work."
"That's not true..."
"In the meantime, we need to list out what we can do right now and show the Elvis family how to create a position in it."
"Hah... we have to show that we're useful."
Well, for now, there's something here to show you.
As far as I am concerned, I believe that the construction of our base will be more important. "
Takeo says.
"Yes, in the meantime, I will teach everyone about the situation at the afternoon meeting and make them assume it."
Maybe something better than the director's plan will come up, but do you mind? "
"Haha, that's what I want you to do."
Takeshi and Meyer continued to conduct their usual war meetings.
