Chapter 26 - WAR OF THRONE [ CH=23] [ RETREAT OR NOT ]

IN GATE 3

Ashoka talk with Albert and said.

Send message to Kan-ki and Tangen we are retreating.

Albert reply

But.....my king even if we retreat now we can't reach our kingdom in time. 

Ashoka asked.

How many days.

Albert reply.

5 days with maximum speed.

Ashoka shout and said with anger.

So what can i do now there is only two option we have.

First is to continue this war and conqueror this kingdom but than i loose my own kingdom and sacrifice millions of innocent people who live in my kingdom or.

Second is to retreat and at least save some people who believe there king come and save them.

Now tell me Albert what option i choose tell me.

Albert reply with head down

I also don't know what option is right

But then suddenly a voice said.

Why don't you asked that question to your kingdom best strategist.

Ashoka and Albert turn and said.

Why are you here commander Kan-ki.

Kan-ki reply

When i heard you have brought Vikram back than i immediately retreat from battlefield and come here to meet him. But wow there is also a new news for me. So now we have two option than why not we asked that question to our kingdoms best strategist. 

Ashoka said.

Firstly, if you are here who is currently fighting in gate 1

Kan-ki reply

Isn't it is obvious no one.

Ashoka said.

So where is Eli

Kan-ki reply

I said no one is fighting but its not mean they are not prepare for fight. Eli is currently waiting in gate 1 for my return. So i think we should first solve this problem because i have to return fast.

Suddenly some soldier come and gives message that commander Vikram woken up from his unconsciousness.

All three go in doctor tent to meet Vikram but when they enter in tent they all got shock after seeing Vikram.

Ashoka said.

I know something is wrong with that exchange. I already do suspect why they cover Vikram with black fabric in unconscious state.

Then we see Vikram right hand is cut off and he is lying down in bed.

Kan-ki said with anger.

How could you release there commanders after you see they cut Vikram right hand.

Albert said.

Calm down Kan-ki. We also don't know they cut Vikram hand in exchange they cover Vikram with black fabric.

Ashoka said.

Don't worry Kan-ki as yet i think retreating is best option but now we have to answer them with correct manner.

Vikram try to stand and greet there king.

Ashoka said.

Sit Vikram and relax. We come here to asked your opinion.

Vikram said.

King. I also want to know what happen while i was unconscious.

Albert explain everything what happen in war and what threat his own kingdom facing currently.

Vikram said.

I think the real shock is i loose my right hand but now i think the real shock is something else.

Ashoka asked.

So what you think we do Vikram. What option we choose.

Vikram reply.

King. I think you choose third option.

Ashoka, Albert and Kan-ki said.

Third option? What is third option.

Vikram smile and said.

King i think you forget something.

Ashoka was confused and said.

Vikram explain what you want to say.

ON OTHER SIDE.

Lucian and other three commander is waiting for reinforcement.

Hugh asked.

King Lucian did you really think they retreat.

Lucian reply.

They don't have any other option. If they don't retreat there kingdom is destroy and if even if they still want to fight than in some time reinforcement come from kingdom of water.

Alfred asked.

King Lucian how many soldier they send for our help.

Lucian reply.

700,000 soldier with 1 commander.

Alfred shocked and said.

What 700,000 with that many soldier there is no chance they defeat us.

Ralph said.

King. I want to say something.

Lucian said.

Speak why are you hesitating. 

Ralph said.

King. I know we are in advantage but i don't know. I can't imagine our victory.

Lucian asked with serious voice.

What was the reason you can't imagine our victory.

Ralph reply.

Enemy King. King Ashoka and there commanders. His commander defeat me and Hugh and i also hear there commander Vikram student injured our commander Dhanur.

Lucian said.

Shut up. I also know how powerful they are but even they can't win against three kingdoms.

One soldier come and inform Lucian that reinforcement come in gate 1 from kingdom of water.

Lucian order one soldier go in gate 1 and request kingdom of water commander to send 300,000 soldier in gate 3 and also said it was kings order.

IN SOME TIME

Reinforcement come.

We see Lucian stand in battlefield with 300,000 reinforcement + 80,000 soldier and 50,000 cavalry.

Lucian shout and said.

Ashoka. I know you already receive message from your kingdom that he is facing a big threat and you are already in disadvantage you have no option left but i still want to give you chance if you open gate 3 and release my 120,000 soldier. I give you chance.

Hugh come said.

King. What are you talking, you want to give him chance.

Lucian reply.

He still have 120,000 our soldier and what happen if he try to hostage them. So just wait when he release our 120,000 soldier, we start attacking. So just wait.

5 MIN LATER

Gate 3 open.

Lucian said.

See Hugh. I know he is coward who also afraid from death. See I think he agree to release our soldiers.

We see 50 big carriage come from gate 3 and stop in battlefield. Than gate 3 closed.

Ashoka stood on top of the gate 3 and said.

Go and take your soldier, All your soldier are inside these carriage.

Lucian order some soldier to open these carriage. Some soldier go and open the carriage but they all get shocked to see what was inside.

Lucian asked.

What is inside? Why are you all shocked.

Lucian went and saw himself, what is inside. He was also shocked and shout.

ASHOKA..... I KILL YOU.

Then we seen in inside those carriage.

Ashoka release all 120,000 soldier but without head's

Ashoka said.

Why are you so shocked Lucian. You take my commander right hand and so i take your soldiers head's. Now i think we are equal. And don't think this war is over. I am not retreating.

Lucian said.

So he choose to destroy his own kingdom. 

Lucian send a message with bird to attack kingdom of power.

Hugh asked.

So what we do now King Lucian.

Lucian reply.

Now order all soldier to attack gate 3. We are in advantage they only have 300,000 soldier with mix cavalry and we have total 430,000 army right now.

Lucian army start attacking.

From inside kingdom of power soldier also start defending gate 3 and start shooting arrows toward enemy soldiers.

Arthur said.

Soldier reply.

Arthur said.

Some time later.

Arthur reach battlefield and said.

King war is about to start. Please forgive me if i can't protect your kingdom.

IN BATTLEFIELD.

We see three kingdoms with 50,00,000 army and kingdom of power only have half 25,00,000 army.

But then suddenly one soldier come and inform a large army come from west and then other soldier also come and inform a large army come from east.

Arthur shocked and asked.
