THE REBIRTH OF A GENIUS. CREATOR/DESTROYER

Chapters 182. Red Stone Canyon

Twenty-seven days the army marched from the southern star city to the red rock canyon scattered throughout the dukedom.

The main source of this news is the traders. Because they traveled a lot, the news also spread in many parts of the Dukedom.

Some of them were amazed as they imagined the scene, some of them simply dismissed the news as an exaggerated rumor.

On one day the twenty-seven battalion ranks stopped when they reached the red stone city.

The city has two main entrances and one of them leads to the south of the star city and the other towards the canyon where the military post is located.

Although it was called a city, it was no bigger than an ordinary village. The only reason it is called a city is because of better economic circumstances than ordinary villages.

It is one of the smallest border connections with the enemy kingdom. The red rock canyon narrows the road connecting the two kingdoms making it a strategic location that can be a pathway to one of the kingdoms.

If one kingdom compromises, the other kingdom will easily occupy another city and if that happens, the balance between the two kingdoms could be broken.

If one of the two kingdoms wins at this location, the winner can use this opportunity to break through the defeated kingdom. Since the border was small and both sides were covered with Cliffs making it almost uninhabitable and difficult to send troops from different directions, the loser would only have one way.

They gathered an army and attacked their other cities. But before they could muster enough troops and clear the citizens to carry out an attack, there was a high chance that the victorious troops would enter their kingdom and they would have a strategic advantage.

Even if the victor who entered the empire had trouble confronting the troops, he could use this canyon as a way to retreat easily. The other party's army wouldn't be foolish enough to barge into the canyon and follow them into their territory before defeating the army since there would be a high possibility of landing in a trap.

For this reason, it became a difficult location due to the natural terrain around it.

Sam read the report given to him by the Deputy General, he also read something interesting, that is, a few decades ago, he said, the second duke's army was stationed near the red canyon and this city and the rival parts of this city in the enemy Empire..

Civilians were forced into terrible countries with shortages of food and ample space and a safe environment. The red rock canyon became a battleground and both armies faced some serious casualties.

Yet both sides were unmoved and unwilling to give up on the place, as the first to successfully occupy the red canyon and another imperial city, they would have a strategic advantage.

They can control the surrounding villages slowly or they can safely retreat to the canyon which would be an ideal location to survive as they can bring their enemies to fight.

But the problem was that when both sides wanted to obtain it, they wasted so many resources and lives, that they could only reach a consensus.

The two of them retreated, their forces and only left one battalion each. Both sides of the canyon are cliffs that divide the two kingdoms completely and the next town with its border connected is more than a week away.

So, any regiment in charge of the city's borders would organize a battalion here.

There are some more delicate places like this and they are all guarded in the same way.

The enemy duke who posed this challenge would not only help his son to gain exposure from the people behind the scenes but also the recognition from the emperor by resolving the deadlock in this place.

Sam had to say that this plan was extraordinary, the only variable was to win or lose the battle.

If his plan really failed, then the Duke's son's life was at stake.

So, Sam felt there might be something else going on behind the scenes.

Will the Duke really leave his son to die in this place?

Does he really not care about this?

Sam felt that it was highly unlikely, but the Duke still sent his son into battle, there were only two possibilities, he said, The Duke was very confident that they would win this battle or the Duke might think of a backup plan to save his son if he lost.

Sam was thinking about what might happen. He knew that, if fighting was an opportunity for him to earn points for the assignment, it was also a high-level risk.

He was the enemy of the general and he more or less enraged the Duke and even messed up their troops. So, they might hold some grudges.

Although, Duke's offer might sound like an opportunity, Sam thought otherwise.

This is an opportunity to collect points. If they actually win, they can collect enough points to leave second place on the ground and if they lose, they can collect enough points, the duke can cover up the words by saying that the candidates bravely led the troops and tried their best.

But sending Sam, who is their enemy, there may be only two cases and one is that they try to curry favor with Sam or they want Sam to lose here and die. Sam felt that the second option was the most likely.

He shook his head and sent the Zoi termites and four shadow rats out.

As Sam expected, the two remaining couples also began to expect as soon as he took care of the first one. And soon ten new shadow rats joined the family.

Now that his parents are still teaching and nurturing his son, now Sam can only take advantage of his four young children.

Their task now was to see if there were any disturbances on the terrain.

Generally, there is a limit that neither side should do anything against the terrain. If the canyon collapsed, the relationship between the two kingdoms would be cut off, turning the strategic location into a dead end, which would anger the emperors.

After a whole night of stalking and making sure that there was no fraudulent scheme involving the terrain, he felt relieved, he retired for the day.

For the next three days, Sam only needed to prepare his soldiers for battle and after three days, they had to fight and on the fifth day, Sam wanted to start the journey home.

He didn't want to wait here, test the water, make a strategy and everything.

To be honest a battle involving only two battalions meant a thousand people, for Sam this was not a war at all.

And he was very confident that his army would win and there was a high probability that they would win without any casualties.

Even if the other party had an entire army full of Beginner elites that were individually stronger than his soldiers, he could still confirm that it was his victory.

Because, the main strength of Sam's troops lies in teamwork that is implanted into them to attach to their muscle memory.

But he only had one worry and that was if there were any fraudulent means involved, there was a high chance that the soldiers might be in danger, which he did not want to happen.

So, over the next three days, all four mice and termites and even locusts were in full-time supervising mode.

They did not even bother to enter the enemy forces, rather they were only responsible for watching over the canyon.

Therehewas.

Fortunately there was nothing wrong with the terrain and there was only one way that something could happen and it was a conspiracy involving enemy forces or some hidden experts coming in.

On the day of the war, before dawn the soldiers had already woken up and marched towards the mouth of the canyon. On the other side of the canyon that was over two thousand meters away, they could see their enemy kingdom also preparing for war.

At this moment, a great magician came towards Sam.

This person was one of the supervisors of this battle.

There were five great mage experts from both sides and these ten people were here to supervise the match so that no one broke the rules that would happen.

"I hope you know the rules. In this battle even if you are killed, we will not interfere. The most we can do is bring your body back and bury it properly with the other soldiers.

The same goes for the other troops, their great magicians would also not be involved.

We're just here to keep an eye out and make sure no one breaks the rules.

Therefore, I hope you will win."

As the supervisor said, he reached out his hand to shake hands, which Sam returned.
