The Enemy's Plan

The Trunma Kingdom.

Dammi had been so busy with all of the financial reports that were brought to him by his ministers, although it could be handled to his trustworthy people, he wanted to do it himself to ensure the continued prosperity of their Kingdom.

Dammi then laid his back at the chair and breathed out.

"Ahhh, another one of this very exhausting day, too many things to do, I wonder when will Gordon or Nyken have any sort of interest on these things, I`m more than eager to retire and hand them my duties, ahhh, that would be a dream."

After resting for a few minutes, Dammi immediately returned to what he was doing.

Then, out of nowhere, someone shouted.

"My King! My King! There is a great problem!"

Dammi looked at the door as he ordered.

"Open the door!"

The two guards opened the door, the one shouting immediately entered and kneeled.

"My King! Enemies! Enemies charging at our Kingdom!"

Dammi was shaking, he then calmed down as he asked.

"How many?"

"A Hundred thousand men strong army! judging from their armor and flag, they came from the Montblan Empire!"

Dammi frowned, he immediately ordered.

"Call Gordon here! Now! Blow the Horns!"

"Yes!"

The Guards outside Dammi's room replied as they immediately rushed out.

Dammi looked at the scout as he continued.

"Announce to the citizens, evacuate and head to the Capital."

"Yes, my King!"

After replying, the scout immediately ran out of Dammi's room and immediately head to the Townsquare.

There are only eight guards left in his room, one of them spoke.

"My King, Let us evacuate you first."

Dammi shook his head as he replied: "No, the safety of my citizens is my priority!"

Remembering something, he looked at one of the elite Guard and asked.

"Where is my Daughter?"

"My King, we haven't heard of any news of the Princess from General Gordon."

Dammi was shaking of what they reported, he then realized something and spoke.

"Don't worry about her, but find out if she's inside the kingdom, and if she is, immediately evacuate and send her to Mrakna Empire."

"Yes, your Majesty!"

Four of the elite guards walked out as they made their way to search for Nyken.

Dammi is still shaking as he looked out of the window, waiting for the enemies to arrive.

Then, out of nowhere, a shout sounded.

"Father!"

Dammi smiled as he looked back and spoke.

"Gordon, can we defend our Kingdom?"

Without any hesitation, Gordon replied.

"Father, we can't, we might be able to hold out, but we will definitely fall by the end of the day."

Dammi smiled as he nodded and spoke.

"Evacuate! We shall start our evacuation now, prioritize the women, children, and elderly."

"YES!"

The rest of the guards nodded as they marched out.

"Father, we need to evacuate you too."

"First would be the citizens of our Kingdom, a good king knows how to retreat, but a great one should know who to prioritize, like them, I am also a normal human, every life saved counts, go now son, I`ll wait for you in the middle of the Townsquare."

Gordon sighed as he looked at Dammi and replied.

"Well, Father, you definitely know who Nyken took her personality from."

"Hahahaha, go on Son, we shall see each other."

Gordon bowed as he spoke: "Father, be safe."

"Yes."

The duo immediately headed to each of their priorities, one is informing and giving the order to the people, while the other one is to prepare the soldiers for a battle.

...

After a few minutes, Dammi finally rushed himself towards the stage, he looked at the heavily disciplined citizens of his country with a smile, none of them are panicking, neither scared, well the children are, but those that had already witnessed Dammi's great heroism back in the years, they trusted him with all of their hearts, even if they die, they would definitely not have anything against it, it only means that there were too little of what Dammi could've done.

Dammi stood at the stage as the crowd immediately shouted simultaneously.

"Your Majesty!"

Everyone kneeled right after speaking.

Dammi waved his hand as he spoke: "We have little to no time left, we must escape this crisis, in the future, we would definitely retake our lands."

"Yes Your Majesty!"

Dammi then continued: "The first ones to go are the children, women, and elderly, the men shall follow the evacuating people then, the Armies shall protect you all until their last breath."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Dammi nodded as he spoke.

"Now, start, we have so little time left! evacuate fast but in an orderly manner."

"Yes!"

All of the citizens started to bid their farewells to their Family as they walked towards the northern gate of the Trunma Kingdom.

Then a shout resounded.

"Your Majesty! The enemies have arrived!"

All of the citizens heard it, they became scared, but none of them showed it as they continued their evacuation, forming a twenty line of people with women, children, and the elderlies in front while the men have the items of baggage.

Dammi frowned as he became nervous for the first time again after so many years and spoke.

"Fasten the phase!"

All of them fastened their phase towards the North gate, not wanting to be a burden to their King at such a crucial time.

...

Gordon at the walls is observing the movements of the enemies, they are just basically going straight at the Kingdom's southern gates.

"Prepare the arrows and oils, Rakszwei users, prepare to barrage them with your power and send them to Kingdom come!"

"WOAH!"

The soldiers were all prepared, but they are still shaking with fear, the elites, on the other hand, had already prepared to face deaths on multiple occasions during their times of experience with war, they are veterans, honed from their experience with life and death situation.

Gordon frowned as the enemies are slowing their momentum down the slopes, which should be the focal momentum at their charge.

Gordon kept pondering for a while, then he realized something as the Heavy cavalries are in the middle while the Light Cavalries are at the two sides.

Like a sudden enlightenment, Gordon shivered as sweat appeared on his body.

"Not good! Sound the alarm! Make the evacuation faster! they are going to surround the Kingdom!"

Hearing Gordon's words, they were immediately frightened, they are doing an all for nothing charge which their target would be extremely obvious.

"They are going to kill every living people inside our Kingdom!"
