The Reincarnation of the Kingmaker



Chapter 232: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 35

The operation to destroy the Dream Village was immediately executed the next day.

Every excess manpower was gathered in front of the square that was constructed when Kayn was out in the Daze Village.

Kayn and his group gathered them through the use of the staff from the different departments.

At first, only a few came, but as soon as the news about fighting against the Assembly of Freedom spread, even those that were assigned to the Drowsy Village came despite the fact that they need to brave the dangers of the center region of the Slumbering Forest. Luckily enough, they came in groups, so no one was hurt.

Kayn announced the plan to attack the Dream Village tomorrow. They'll be making their way to one of the territories of the Assembly of Freedom today and make their preparation for the battle.

He used the reason that he wants to hit the iron while it is hot, implying the supposed successful last operation.

It was a well-understood fact, and given Kayn's considerable influence, when the question of volunteers was presented, a long line that extended almost to the entrance of the base was created.

Kayn and the others already expected this, so they have prepared enough manpower to speed up the entire process.

After the lunch break, the list of volunteers was finally submitted to Kayn, which he then submitted to Old Mayor George.

Old Mayor George signed his approval to the document and the march to the Dream Village didn't take long to begin.

Five formations were created with ten columns and rows.

As they made their march to the south, they started clearing everything that blocks their way, including tall trees and huge rocks.

Needless to say, they made sure to pick up all the Drowsy Mushrooms along the way, as they might serve a good use later during the battle.

It was later in the evening that the men of the Green Horn City finally reached the outskirts of the Dream Village.

Kayn didn't bother hiding the thousands of men from the sight of the people of the Dream Village. There was no use to begin with because, with their huge number, it would only take a matter of time for someone to notice them.

Putting that aside, Kayn sent some people with the Assassin class to gather information inside the Dream Village under the leadership of both Gilbert and Jericho. The huge number of soldiers outside serves as the best distraction for their covert operation.

As expected, the covert operation was quickly finished and dozens of documents about the findings of the scouting party soon came into Kayn's temporary office.

Kayn finished reading the documents before finally calling it a day.

The following day, before the sun could rise, the soldiers of the Green Horn City were already strategically positioned, ready for the impending battle with the Dream Village. They maintained the same formation as they had during their march here.

On the other side, men from the Dream Village, including their Chief, also came forth in front of their walls to greet the uninvited guest.

Looking at the formation of their enemy, it became quite apparent to Kayn that the Dream Village is already in full control of the men and allies of the Assembly of Freedom. The reason is that there are thousands of soldiers in front of their walls.

No matter how one would look at it, it is impossible for a territory like the Dream Village to possess thousands of soldiers. That will only be possible if they have been preparing for war.

Before every battle, there would always be an act called diplomatic discussion between the leaders of the two parties involved in the battle. This discussion clearly aims to understand the reason for the assault and also if it is possible to resolve it without shedding any blood.

The representative for the Green Horn City's side was Kayn, and for the Dream Village, it was their Chief whose name is Dennis.

However, what Chief Dennis doesn't understand is that Kayn doesn't have any intention of having the so-called diplomatic discussion.

"How about we begin with you giving me the reason for this bold intrusion!" Chief Dennis strongly demanded.

But in response to Chief Dennis's command, two daggers came flying straight to his neck.

Nobody aside from the Green Horn City's side knew about what would happen, so Chief Dennis was unable to react on time as the pair of daggers stabbed straight to his neck, which at the same time prevented him from making any sound as his vocal cords and windpipe received a direct hit.

"Enough talking and let's just start the war!" Kayn smiled.

Kayn's action serves as the perfect catalyst for the start of the battle.

Considering the men of the Green Horn City's side already knew what will happen, they were able to make the first move, thus bringing the battle close to the walls of the Dream Village.

Thinking that this is the best opportunity to use their wall defense, dozens of barrels full of oil were pushed to the edge of the walls.

However, just when they thought that it would be easy to launch a counter-offense, dozens of flaming arrows and arrows carrying dynamites flew toward the oil barrels.

Boom!

A series of loud explosions echoed as the top of the walls of the Dream Village was instantly engulfed in a raging inferno. And because oil acted as the stimulus for the fire, it splattered upon explosion causing the soldiers down below the wall to get implicated.

Hundreds of men started running and rolling on the ground as they got covered in fire.

It was useless though and what they are doing is simply spreading the fire because of the oil that drenched them.

As a result, they caused even more casualties in their formation as they started affecting those who were lucky enough to dodge the oil.

All of a sudden, multiple rumbling noises were heard as the wooden walls that surrounded the Dream Village started crumbling down due to the excessive flames.

In that brief span of time, the entire formation and strategies that the Dream Village has prepared for this battle were turned into dust, as in literally, because everything got consumed by flames.
