《The thought of peace》Chapter – 8 Rebellion extermination Army Vs the Rebellion

Advertisement

After the raid at Arthur’s estate, the rebellion band got enough money to fight the alliance forces. They began their first attack in the nearby city of Vlatburag, where the cannons needed for war are prepared. The city does not have many troops so, after two days of continuous fight the alliance army surrendered. Beta knows that they have a decent number of troops but if it was to compare with the alliance's large forces it will not even stand a chance. To give the alliance a tough battle he captures the city and made it their base for operations by building large walls and using the cannons from the city. A month after the capture of Vlatburg in the council of the Istrila Alliance

Lord Desmond(The chairman of the Istrila Alliance): Everyone, we have bad news coming from Istrila that a rebellion group which has been doing small robberies or crimes suddenly started attacking our important places. First, they ambushed Lord Arthur's estate and free all the slaves and after that, they have currently seized control of one of our key cities "Vlatburg".

Council Member: Sir, We already have enough on our plate. Our county Doised Republic is on the brink of destruction. How can we fight on two fronts, I propose that we must pull back the new Tax laws which were the root cause of all this trouble.

Everyone erupted into anger because the new laws are making all of them very rich.

Lord Desmond: Everyone, I have a proposal for you all to listen to. Let's create a Rebellion extermination army and get rid of the rebellion. I choose Lord Arthur to be the head of the Army, and Lord Drake and Lord Dowding will be the marshals because both of them are very skilled in guerilla warfare. The army which will be used for this purpose is two divisions from the Knights of the silver shield.

Everyone was shocked after hearing that The Knights of the silver shield is going to participate in a battle because they are one of the elite armies of Istrila and were currently fighting in the Doised republic. The councilmen from the Doised republic were furious because the army was holding the entire country from destruction is going to be removed but they couldn't do anything because all of the powers to make decisions for the alliance are in the hands of the councilmen from Istrila. The army marched from the republic of Doised to the fertile, lush green lands of Istrila. The head of the army was Lord Dowding who personally came to lead the army into battle. Rebellion scouts saw a large army marching towards them and by the first look, they knew that they were coming for them. They immediately went toward the city and tell Markus

Rebel Scout: Sir, there's a very large alliance army coming in this direction. From the look of their flags, they have to be the Knight of the silver shield.

Markus:(shocked and panicked shouted) ALL TROOPS HOLD BATTLE POSITION. WE HAVE AN EMERGENCY ON OUR HANDS!

Everyone rushed to gather their weapons because it won't be long until the alliance's army came here. Meanwhile, Beta went to his attack division and told them

Beta:(with excitement) Everyone, we have got the big opportunity we have been waiting for ages. If we win this battle the alliance will be on its knees. Now get ready this day is going to be a long one.

After two hours the army came to the city and they find that there are cannons all over the walls of the city but on the other hand, they only have five hundred men at the city gates to protect it and in front of them all is Beta. Jeremy the leader of the knights of the silver shield went to negotiate with the rebellion army along with Lord Dowding and some soldiers.

Lord Dowding: We demand an unconditional surrender of the rebel army and in return, we will spare all of your lives.

Markus:(In a rude voice) Do you think after what we have achieved, we will back down so, easily.

Jeremy:(while looking down on Markus) Of course, you will back down sooner or later because all you do is fight the fodder soldiers so, today I will fight you and show you the taste of defeat.

Markus:(while shouting) WE ARE NOT HERE FOR SURRENDER! Let's make conditions, whoever survives this battle will be the mightiest.

Jeremy:(with a grin on his face) I accept your conditions you ugly looking pig.

Beta:(also have a grin on his face) This battle will be the most interesting in comparison to all the one we previously had.

Jeremy:(with an ugly look) What a stupid man. Let's see how I will torment you until you die.

Lord Dowding:(while laughing) Jeremy let's head back. I was right we can't negotiate with a bunch of fools.

When the battle starts the rebellion army obliterated the alliance forces with their cannons but once the cannons went on reloading, they launch a full assault towards the city. Beta along with his attack division attacks the enemy forces in the centre and starts killing their soldiers like they are made out of fabric. After seeing Beta’s demonic way of fighting the alliance army got frightened and start retreating but at the same time all the cannons got reloaded again and rain of cannon shots are fired on the alliance army. The situation in the alliance camp got into complete chaos. Then after seeing the chaos in the army Lord Dowding started escaping the battlefield but because of the chaos he couldn’t so, he decided to kill his soldiers and make way for him

Lord Dowding:(terrified) Dammit, Why do I have to come here? I was living my life to the fullest until now working in the council so, why did I decide to come here to this slaughterhouse.

Then he suddenly saw Beta standing in front of him covered in blood from head to toe and also laughing demonically. Then suddenly an arrow came toward Beta and hit him in his left arm. Then he saw Jeremy standing in front of him with his soldiers covering Lord Dowding. Then Jeremy start attacking him in his eyes but he underestimated Beta so, he got one of his legs cut up. After seeing this horrific sight, the soldiers from the alliance started running away from the city but eventually, Beta’s attack division who had already broken the alliance’s army formation and surround them up from behind. Then Beta came spinning both of his swords and ended up cutting any soldier who came in his range because of this many soldiers from the rebellion also get killed. Then after finishing hundreds of soldiers on his own, Beta reached Lord Dowding. He was scared and shivering from head to toe so, he throws his sword and tell him

Lord Dowding:(traumatised and barely able to speak) Please, Don't kill me, I beg you. Without me, humans will have little chance of winning the battle against Lizardmen. I am a very great asset, this internal fighting has nothing to do with me. We can negotiate this matter peacefully

Before he could finish speaking his body was split in half by Beta. The rebellion army won a significant victory by defeating the rebellion extermination army. Then after this battle, the council of the alliance put all the remaining soldiers of the knights of the silver shield which were on standby for the Rebellion extermination army and Lord Drake was put in charge this time. Then after a few months of battle against rebellion the Alliance of Istrila went on the verge of collapse because the rebel forces were thirty kilometres away from the Istrila’s capital.
