Right now Victor can be seen Reviewing the performance of soldiers and he was satisfied he looked at Lewis "Lewis you have done great work I was worried about infantry most
I was worried whether they would be able to adapt to such a new Tactics and methods You have not disappointed me "
Lewis Straightened his back and proudly said "It is all because if your New innovative method and support I could do it My Lord"
"It's alright no need to flatter me ha ha ha"
Victor was also Looking at cavalry and Proudly Said.
"Excellent Degmon I believe Cavalry Will tear apart our enemies in the field of battle"
Degmon was really happy with the praise of Victor.
"But there skills Will be tested "on battlefield Victor looked serious
Victor looked at both Lewis and Degmon and also at Swin the Second regiment colonel and third Regiment Colonel Colton With the smile the smile hope you all don't disappoint me in battlefield soon In his Office Victor received a report.
The whole War situation changed when Victor received the letter and read it he only had one thought on my Mind ' it was not a battle but a massacre. '
After Theo IV decided to face Jonathan in open battle field he marched towards his army. Meanwhile when Jonathan received the news of Theo's army marching towards him.
He also marched his army finally the two Giants are About clash both the armies arrived near open battle field plain where they can use there gigantic armys to their best Jonathan was leading force of upto 110,000 and Theo was leading 115,000 it was a massacre between both the armies.
Even though the infantry's were evenly matched the cavalry on the left flank of Golden Grove kingdom was being pushed back And it almost felt Jonathan was about to win.
But here comes the surprise the king of Golden Grove had bought allegiance of a Duke Zecon When Jonathan was rising to power By defeating various nobles one of main figure who stoid against Jonathan was.
Duke Zecon But Jonathan defeated him. After Zecon and many other nobles surprisingly surrendered to him even though could continued there Rebellions against him .
Now here was problem If Jonathan tried to kill all these nobles there would be many problem he had just taken the throne Constant Civil wars Would have Destroyed his rule.
So he decided to spare Zecon killed some of minor Nobles And that was his biggest mistake because Duke Zecon knew that the Rule of Jonathan was not going to be much stable.
So he Tried Undermining the Rule of Jonathan from inside and soon opportunity came when Jonathan Decided to Invade Golden Grove he secretly he secretly made dealings with Theo.
Theo promised the throne of Mariner kingdom will be his In exchange Zecon will Give up on some of the Border territory to Theo .Zecon agreed because he also knew the health of King Theo IV was not Much Good and his Nobles had Started Question his Rule as well.
Maybe in future if Theo dies The Mighty King Zecon can invade Golden Grove not only take previous territory of Mariner But Also unite both the kingdom under his banner he dreamed.
And now in these situation Zecon ordered his infantry men to start attacking the flanks of Jonathan army. These Jonathan by surprise he was not prepared.
But the cavalry on the left flank of Golden Grove was routed now the enemy cavalry have started to encircle them. Both the armies were in mess .
Jonathan who was trying to stabilize the line he was shouting and Fighting when in the middle of battle he was stuck by an arrow no one knows who fired the arrow but one thing was for sure Jonathan was in danger.
But all was not going well for Theo there left flank was Being destroyed by Mariner cavalry meanwhile there right cavalry was about to be routed as well.
Things got worse for both the sides Theo knew battle was lost And he was loosing his Consciousness as well before the battle the mighty king of Golden Grove Could not even walk properly he Was Coughing and had High fever.
Even the his army has Broken Through the infantry of the enemy his left flank has already been encircled and his right flank was also about to routed .
So he sounded retreat soon his infantry Retreated but is was late for His Right flank to retreat properly because enemy left flank cavalry are attacking after routing the Cavalry of Golden Grove the retreat was Hard.
Even the Mariner kingdom army retreated by nightfall the battle field was filled with dead bodies Crowns And Cultures eating the flesh it was most gruesome sight. That could cause horror for normal People.
And Casualties on both the sides were Tremendous Mariner kingdom suffered 43,000 dead and with there king injured as for
Golden Grove kingdom 58,000 dead Most casualties were from Royal army. As for king Theo IV there is no news.
After reading the report Victor sighed these battle is Going to cause lot of wars on the Archipelago . But what terrified him was the army deployed by these two kingdom the numbers were really A lot compared it the European army's upto 14th century
They even had hard time deploying the army of upto 40,000 to 50,000 now he truly believe these world is different from his previous ones.
After reading the report carefully Victor knew one thing war is Coming soon civil wars will break out the nobles of Golden Grove won't just sit back and watch it would have been different if Theo had won the battle.
But now he is army is weak his health is in decline it's only matter of time before flames of battle spread in these lands Victor looked at charles and ordered him
"Charles go and call Jon "charles Replied
"Yes mylord"
Soon Jon arrived at The Office of Victor.
"Jon how are you Victor "Showed a Shameless Smile. Meanwhile Jon did not care about greeting or anything he directly said "Mylord i won't let you use single coin from treasury now." Jon said With Determined look
"Woahh man calm down man I just wanted to order you to stop all the projects for the time being And start buying food For Soldiers in large quantity. "
Jon Was surprised "Why My lord ".Meanwhile Victor With Smile said"OOh nothing just our dear king got his ass beaten by Jonathan well not completely but still techniquely. "
Jon still looked Confused So Victor just handed over the letter to Jon and when Jon scanned the letter his hand and his eyes both trembled Than Said "Yes My lord"
"Yeah Yeah we need to get ready soon There will be enemies everywhere we won't know from where Attack would come. So buy the Food if you don't want these territory to be overrruned By Our enemies. " Victor Looked seriously at Jon these time.
Meanwhile Jon Immediately Answered" Yes My Lord". But as Jon was about to leave he looked at Victor young face and Said.
"My lord Do you want to become king" Jon asked nervously.
Victor Just smiled and asked "What do you think".Jon Replied "My Lord I think you are planning something."
Victor just said "Do you really think I am capable enough take the throne". Victor Said With no emotion on his face.
After Jon left the room Victor leaned back on his chair and stared at the ceiling upcoming Year is going to filled with blood Victor closed his eyes.
