Fake Princess
Clxxiv Chapter
I stood on a hill with a tent made of four wooden sticks covered in a sheet of cloth as the roof. Let out my eyes on a piece of leather containing stones of various sizes laid out on the table in front...
Kulirik Lintang and Dirga who stood to the right and left of my body complete with dozens of other Knights who stood around the tent where we took shelter...
Give my eyes to the hundreds of thousands of troops who have stood in their positions according to what I command. Giant weapons such as catapults and spear throwers have lined up neatly around them, as well as lining up dozens of wooden barrels containing secret weapons that I have prepared for the enemy...
Let me give my eyes to Zeki, Izumi, and also Aydin who were riding their horses in front of the tens of thousands of footmen standing behind them, the spears clasped by the three of them seemed to be glistening from a distance...
I turned my gaze to Adinata who was standing on the chariot with three Knights in front, right and left of her body... And Haruki, though, sitting quietly on his horse with thousands of cavalry lined up neatly behind him while the other half of his army stood evenly around the pedestrian troops for all the possibilities that would occur...
Danurdara marched along with his troops filled the hill, bow-bow arrows were ready to be grasped by each of them. The oil-filled wooden barrels had been filled with arrows ready to be fired by them...
From the top of the hill I can see everything, I became their eyes watching the enemy, I became their brains to dispel the enemy attacks. My heart was beating increasingly irregularly, turning my gaze to the sweat that had flooded my palms...
My eyes were diverted to the sheets of cloth that swung in the air, the emblem of three petals of flowers appeared painted on the sheets of cloth. Both of my eyes narrowed trying to look at those far away...
The black dots appeared along with the flag earlier, the more and more approached us. Let me look at the giant weapons made of wood that are increasingly visible in the midst of the many black dots earlier.
Turning around I walked past the table that was in front of me, my footsteps moved forward with Latitude and also Dirga who were each following behind me...
I put my palm to the forehead while trying to resist the glare emitted by the sun. The enemy troops marched with shields forming a wall before them...
"We must punish the rebels! In the name of the Empire, we will destroy Balawijaya!" there was a scream followed by the roar of thousands of people following him.
"Dirga, tell the messenger. The plan was changed, ordering Zeki, Izumi, and Aydin to destroy the enemy's defenses. And tell Adinata to wait for my next command" I said, looking straight ahead, glancing at Dirga who was walking past.
Dirga whispered something to a knight riding, the horse was moved quickly by the Knight was getting away from us. Turning back Dirga headed towards me...
"Are you sure they can do it?" said Lintang, turning my head to look at him who also looked back at me.
"You must not underestimate that humans are not as afraid of death as they are, do you think that the human race can make them tremble with fear?" I said, turning my gaze back to Zeki who moved his horse to the team behind him.
"The three of us are strangers to you. But we stand here to protect your self-esteem, to protect your happiness..."
"Are you going to run away scared just because of their weak bluff!"
"No!"
"No!" shouted the tens of thousands of foot soldiers back.
"We will drive them out of your Kingdom, we will skin them alive and we will get a lot of money from the heads of those we cut off!" Zeki shouted back as he lifted the spear in his hand into the air, the reply of the boisterous cries of the troops made me shudder in silence.
Zeki again moved his horse back to look at the enemy, turn my gaze towards the enemy who had prepared an arrow for them to point at us. I move my legs and run forward...
"Fill the catapult immediately using durian, and throw the durian to them. Make sure you go after their archers, do it now!" I shouted at them, turned the Knights to me as they turned back they rushed to pick up the bundle of durian fruit that was inside the wooden barrel.
"Thank you for your shields! Protect the lives of you and your comrades beside you, no matter what!" The cry from me grew stronger, bowing down to me while holding back a cough several times because of it.
I turned my gaze to look at the leaf packs containing the meat of durian fruit that had been smooth moving faster towards the catapult.
My eyes fell on Haruki's troops guarding the pedestrian troops, the shields beside their horses had moved into each of their hands...
Thousands of arrows flew close to them, shouting Haruki ordered his troops to raise their shields. The wooden shields of the troops were neatly arranged like a roof protecting them...
Thousands of arrows fell on the wooden shields. Instead, they raised the shields slowly...
"Now!" shouting loudly.
Let me look at the leaf pack that is flying closer and closer to the enemy troops. The package fell on top of the group of enemy archers... I stared at the durian flesh that was attached to their bodies...
Falling some of them to the ground, some others seemed to cover their noses, even some of them were instantly bowed by expelling their entrails...
I turned my gaze to Zeki, Izumi and also Aydin who had been riding their horses at full speed. Staring at the pedestrian troops who came running behind them, the enemy troops moved docked with an array of shields to form a wall followed by spears sticking out around the shield wall earlier...
The horse Zeki was riding was getting closer to the wall of the shield interspersed with the sticking spear made by the enemy troops earlier. Zeki bent his body forward, his horse's footsteps faster than ever...
The horse that Zeki was riding jumped high past the enemy troops, follow my gaze on Izumi and also Aydin who followed in his footsteps.
"You see that, don't you? Those three people, will not disappoint me," I said as I looked back at Lintang standing beside me.
