Chapter 183: Sams Battalion (1/2)

Sam might seem petty and he might be stooping low by acting like this. But he is also a normal human being. He is not a bigger man, who associates the other party's condescension to their immaturity and him ignoring them makes him more mature and a good human being.

He doesn't want to be that good human being and wait for karma to do the work for him, he pays back every debt himself.

In fact, he felt that him entertaining the other party by following the normal procedure of some, one vs one duel, beneath him. After all, he needs an equal to play, but the other party is clearly not at least in his mentality of looking down on people.

So, Sam is not going to bother with these rules and let all his soldiers loose. He followed them from a distance on his harbinger as he observed their movements.

He needs to make sure that they wouldn't be affected by any of the underhanded tricks or any other traps that might have been laid by the enemy. He wants this war to be won without a single casualty and he is going to make sure that happens no matter what.

He followed the soldiers with hundred meters distance as he looked over.

From the other side, the Peacock's soldiers also started moving forward. Seeing the confident march of their enemies, they are hesitating whether to go head to head or to make land and defend.

The man who seemed to be the Deputy of the Peacock asked.

”Young Lord, what should we do?” He was given orders before to follow whatever the peacock says, so he is asking it. Even though, he knew that he will be better leader than the young lord, he still has to obey.

After all, this place is for the young lord to show off.

But Peacock is in full Panic mode.

According to what his father said, there would some one on one challenges and then the squad challenges to estimate, the enemy's strength.

This way they can decide to make an all-out attack or make some company level skirmishes and so on. But this commoner is not following these things, he just let his five hundred soldiers loose.

”I…. I don't know.” The peacock stuttered as he answered the deputy. Sam's soldiers are already half way and his soldiers currently covered the half of their half way. So, within few minutes they would meet.

No matter what they did now, they are going to fight the battle in their half which is a bit disadvantageous to them.

The Deputy shook his head and said.

”Young lord, I suggest you stay in the back and near the town gate. If you agree, I will take the command and if anything happens, you can retreat and defend with the remaining soldiers who will follow you back into it.

As long as you guys are alive there is still hope for competition.”

The Peacock nodded his head and immediately moved as if he received a new lease on life. Looking at this behaviour Deputy only shook his head even more.

A coward like him who is afraid to face a completely new situation in a war, how can he be fit to lead an army. He should have just stayed put in his mansion and be sheltered until he inherited his father's position.

Why bother coming to a war zone?

As he thought of this, he looked at the rapidly coming army.

He then looked at the floating young man hovering above his army with a golden coloured bow.

Even though, this young man has confidence, he didn't have enough experience by sending his army like this, it would be difficult if his army was to face some difficult situation. After all, there is only one retreat route and it would quite difficult to defend while retreating.

He shook his head again and then commanded the soldiers.

”Defensive formation.

This would be the ending line and they shouldn't advance past this. Defend this line with your lives. Let us defend for our victory.” His voice was lour and clear and even Sam could hear it. All the soldiers started making defensive formations.

Their spirits are high.
