Hallucinations

The army of soldiers from the first prince had already arrived entirely in the city of Krikilan along with the group of Sky Roof assassins there were around ten thousand soldiers. The first Prince's military adviser said to kill the little birds there was no need with enough cannons one catapult stone alone, which they would face only a village of about two thousand people, not trained soldiers so will throw money and energy alone if you have to bring hundreds of thousands of soldiers.

Ten thousand soldiers were enough to level the village of Genteng let alone the first Prince including two thousand elite soldiers to strengthen this army. Also the Sky Roof killing organization also sent its first echelon assassins as many as two hundred people. Actually the soldiers were not happy with the order, they were more pleased to be ordered to face the enemy from another country than to face a fellow countryman but as soldiers, they could not refuse the order. It was ingrained in their souls to submit to the orders of superiors.

The soldiers did not hesitate to kill, flatten and smother the cities from their enemies but this from their own nation and with reasons they did not understand, how a small village that is developing and bringing prosperity to the community and faithfully paying taxes to the country is said to be rebellious.

They did not understand, there was no need to understand, just need to know, this order came from the capital, from their highest superiors namely the Emperor. People who eat with a golden spoon, who do not know the struggle of the lower society, who do not understand how the lower society struggles to face the pressures of life.

They become a contributor of state taxes and foreign exchange but often the state only makes them dairy cows that will be squeezed milk and if the milk is exhausted, the meat will be eaten. Like these crucial moments, the community will be obliged to help the soldiers who will pass through their area, providing supplies. It is also the people who will first face the suffering of the war that is raging.

The central government will care about this. The decision-making officials only knew how to win the war but did not want to understand that the expensive price to be paid came from these commoners.

Ten thousand elite soldiers were already prepared, mostly taken from the soldiers of Kubar County, the rest from the soldiers of the first Prince's residence and the Sky Roof organization who would be the vanguard to face the enemy.

They have their own arrogance, feeling more powerful than the soldiers from the provinces in the far reaches of the country. They thought why they had to deploy so many troops to deal with two thousand villagers who had never faced war.

This was their stage, those soldiers would only be cannon fodder for them, if necessary a victim of their victory price. Of course if the soldiers from this Kubar district knew what the elite soldiers of this capital were thinking, they would definitely prefer to turn around and re-enjoy the warmth of their families.

It was only if because even if they knew, they would still not be able to go home because they were bound by their oath of office. They had to keep obeying the forces of the first Prince because they came to lead the soldiers from Kubar province under the command of the forces of this capital.

The troops are already preparing at the border town of Krikilan. Lining neatly in shiny uniforms and shoes, an army of banner-bearers lined up at the front, behind him were two thousand cavalrymen on horseback from the first prince and the rest of the troops on foot from Kubar province as support troops.

The people of the town of Krikilan ushered in the departure of this army with prayers and tears because they knew that the war would always bring casualties.

There were no Yel-yel and cheers of excitement because they really did not understand why the Emperor issued a decree about the rebellion of the Roof Tile Village Authority Body. The people of Krikilan city have a good relationship with the Genteng villagers there are even several tens of people who have family members in Genteng city.

Apparently this was just camouflage to deceive the people of the city of Krikilan because after the troops entered more than half the way, the line was rearranged. This time the support troops from the city of Krikilan and Kubar Province were placed in the front row after the ranks of the soldiers carrying the banners.

These troops want to be used for cannon fodder, they will be sent to fight first and after the enemy troops are weakened then the core troops will collect service marks.

This decision unsettled the supporting forces of Kubar Province especially those from the city of Krikilan, of course they could only secretly grumble among themselves but as a soldier they still carried out the orders of the superiors.

The commander of the army was in the hands of a General who was a confidant of the first Prince named General Loe Som Bong, commonly called General A Bong.

General A Bong ordered the eight thousand support troops to go first to Genteng village led by the leader of the troops from Kubar Province who was named Lieutenant General Loe Soe Sha.

Lieutenant General Loe, so commonly called, organized his army, he did not like to sacrifice his troops and wanted to quickly finish that first battle. So he put an army of battering soldiers who had experienced in several wars to advance first and a weaker army to advance later.

The trumpet sounded, the battering ram of two thousand men advancing with vigor. The commanding officer led them running while shouting out yel-yel vigorously. After running for about two kilometers, they were astonished because the atmosphere was very quiet.

The guard post was no longer there, the road was deadlocked but there was a new road to the right side between the trees.

They became hesitant, stopping there looking forward and right at the new path they saw at that moment.

Lieutenant General Loe on his horse came, looking at his soldiers who were hesitant to continue their journey through the new path. He asked the commander of the troops nearby

"Why stop, we haven't found the enemy!"

"Report Lieutenant General Loe, if not mistakenly remembered, here there is usually a guard post. The village gate was several hundred meters ahead but now there was no more and the road used to be....".

He wanted to continue his words to tell her that the new path had not been there before, so he was willing to propose for them to send some soldiers to inspect it but Lieutenant General Loe who wanted to finish his task immediately, cut off his words.

"Through that road, maybe they've moved the guard post".

"Ready"

They simultaneously answered, walked, they did not run anymore because they did not know the terrain that they did not know before. Two thousand men went deeper into the forest.

Unbeknownst to them, actually twenty meters in front of them, the guard post was still there. Hundreds of people with guns in hand were already preparing to face the battering ram.

Some of them were already sweating coldly looking at the hesitating warrior commander. Fortunately Lieutenant General Loe immediately ordered his soldiers to go down the new road.

They arrived at a field filled with flowers on the left right side of the road in the meadow, a type of flower Psychedelic plants, flowers that cause hallucinatory effects on humans.

They walked in a daze, their eyes no longer focused.

"Get On" The voice sounded from the air like a melodious voice from heaven was heard in their ears.

Suddenly line after line vanished from the sight of the person walking behind him. They did not look surprised because of the sight, they kept walking into the room that was not visible to the eye, the two thousand soldiers disappeared and the place was silent again in silence.

Lieutenant General Loe who did not see any of his soldiers returned to report what was happening inside sent all the soldiers who were with him. He himself rode the rear.

Arriving at the meadow, he saw that none of his soldiers were visible in front of him. There was not the slightest sign of battle but he was an experienced soldier so he remained calm, but like his soldiers he suddenly became dazed as well.

"Get On's"....

Lieutenant General Loe is gone.
