Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

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 Peac.o.c.k’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 Peac.o.c.k asked.

"Young Lord, what should we do?" He was given orders before to follow whatever the peac.o.c.k 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 Peac.o.c.k 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 peac.o.c.k 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 Peac.o.c.k 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.

Sam observed the crowd and he saw that the Peac.o.c.k is nowhere to be seen on the front line, he smirked again. His guess was right.

He sent some termites to keep track on that Peac.o.c.k so that he wouldn’t escape. He is determined about this war and if any unexpected things or tricks happened, which he felt that would definitely happen, he prepared several other things to cope with the problem.

He has estimated more than ten scenarios where his clean sweep could go wrong and he prepared enough arrangements for these ten scenarios.

Soon, the two armies met. The defence of the enemy is quite good.

Sam looked at his soldiers with relaxed expression, he has faith in his army.

They are doing exactly what he taught and the first thing in this scenario is to test the extent of the defence of these guys.

The defensive formation of the enemy soldiers is mainly focused on fending the attacks and make it a long duration battle, a battle of endurance. Their earth element users are in the fore front as they made the trenches and walls which would defend their army along with the warriors helping them taking on the attackers.

The second line of defence is mainly of few attackers and semi defence users like water and wood. The last line of defence is full of the main attackers, comprised of many elements including the fire, wind, lightning.

But Sam’s soldiers are dauntless. Right now, they are in company battle mode and the first thing they did is the main attackers attacking the first line of defence with their basic attacks to test how strong they are.

The warriors didn’t even act yet as they spread around with the remaining companies.

After gauging the extent of defensive strength and the counter attacks from the main long-range attackers from second line and third line.

They decided their next step.

There are some Javelin users throwing these javelins as the counter at them from the third line which has some chance of disrupting their attack pattern and the warriors who are in the front line supporting the earth users are the weakest points in the whole defence line.

Since, the other party only focussed on defence their earthen walls are quite solid and being held up by the combination of all earth element users is making it harder for them.

So, the next step Sam’s soldiers thought of is entering this defence line through the weakest point. The warriors.

Just like that there were concentrated projectile attacks like wind blades and fire balls on the warriors. The attacks didn’t even touch the walls and forts like they expected, this made the Deputy frown, but seeing that the attacks are most basic ones, he was still thinking on what to do.

But he didn’t notice, the wood element users and the earth element users making some movements as the attackers made their move on the warriors.

Some areas in the ground started having some changes, the red rocky terrain started protruding with some small brick like structures, in centre of which there was a hole big enough to fit a foot.

The movement of the warriors from the other side were suddenly impeded by the small rocky irregular protrusions which are popping out randomly and the holes hidden at the centre of the protrusions, making some of them struck.

With this small distraction, before they knew it, the attacks came at them. All of them are mostly focused on their vitals. The wind blades targeting their necks, eyes, the fire balls aimed at their faces and heart.

The Deputy observed the small anomaly in which his warriors are being taken down, before he could observe closely, Sam’s soldiers started penetrating into the formation and they are moving in the form of squads.

Their next target is taking down of the earth users while fending off the second line.

The Deputy noticed that the defence is going to crumble and commanded.

"Second line and first line, eliminate the intruders first. Warriors stay defensive and don’t move from your posts, earth users provide cover to the warriors and take some heat from them make sure that they don’t advance further."

He is in the third line and he is on top of a temporary watch tower. He observed the battle seriously. The first thought he had after watching Sam’s soldier’s performance is that he is wrong about his assumption of the other party being inexperienced.

The strategy is completely unconventional and new. He had led the same battalion for quite some battles. The cultivator’s wars always tended to on the simple side without much tricks. He used this formation many times but all of them always targeted at the earthen wall.

Because, even if they take down the warriors, the entry into the inner part will be minimal and at most a squad can enter before the gap was filled. The squad who entered will be dead as they would be surrounded by quite some people.

This can be called a trap, but for some reason, he had a bad feeling that these squads of Sam’s battalion shouldn’t enter this and consequences wouldn’t be good.
