THE FIGHT TO BE KING
CHAPTER 212: ARREST
"What's? 150,000 troops? Where did this much army come from?", cried Herfu full of surprise.
But before the reporting soldier could reply, the sound of footsteps of hundreds of thousands of troops sounded from behind them.
Herfu who heard those footsteps instantly turned around, before his eyes he now discovered there were actually 150,000 troops rushing towards them.
Herfu stared at the flag carried by the enemy troops strangely because the flag is the identity of a troop, just by looking at their flag it can be known who this army is.
But the troops approaching Rayde City carried the Royal Flag of Azeroth, besides there were many flags that showed this army was not from 1 person but a joint army of many nobles.
What made Herfu even stranger was that he knew how difficult it was to get nobles to gather warriors, however, against the Orc-Goblin Kingdom, the nobles did not help Herfu use all their strength but only tried to profit from Herfu's victory.
Therefore other than Grand Duke Rayde who was his son, no one in the north of Azeroth Kingdom had the ability to gather this much noble army.
When Herfu was confused, the 2 people in the front row of the 150,000 troops immediately attracted the attention of Herfu.
2 The man was a strong man who wore a horse and carried a sword, he used light iron armor so that it would not slow down the movement of his horse.
After which, a powerful killing aura could be felt through the man's body, Herfu was confident regarding the man's ability as the leader of the army only through his aura.
Next to the male figure, there was a woman who was holding a folding fan and covering half of her face wearing a fan in her hand.
There was not the slightest display of military generals, the woman gave the aura of a savvy strategist to everyone who saw her. Then the woman was also very beautiful, at least Herfu was sure that the woman who led this army was no less beautiful than her own son who was famous as the top 5 beauty in the Kingdom of Azeroth.
The problem that made Herfu the most surprised was that he knew these 2 people, they were none other than Falka and Ren, followers of the faith who always helped beside Myro.
Ren who was beside Falka shouted "You rebels, listen carefully! Our master, the Military Governor of the Cavalry Province, Earl Myro got word of the 5th division rebellion and General Torte's rebellion against the Azeroth Kingdom. In fact they were planning to kill the Grand Duke of the kingdom without the king's permission, hence Earl Myro made the Military Governor's Decree to gather all the soldiers from the Cavalry Province in order to be able to maintain the order that existed in the Azeroth Kingdom! As the general and noble of King Azeroth V, Lord Earl felt it was right for him to help his majesty overcome the rebellion".
"So at that consideration, Lord Earl gathered 150,000 troops from all over the Cavalry Province to suppress the rebels! Not stopping there, it was known that the General of the Northern Border, General Herfu dared to act to move the border troops without the king's permission! This is a violation of the rules, we will find out what General Herfu's goal is whether this is a rebellion or not, we hope the general does not fight and help us catch the other rebels. If the general fights back, then we can think of him as the general planning to rebel against the Azeroth Kingdom!".
Seeing that Ren had finished, Falka drew her sword and shouted "I, Falka who is now acting on behalf of the Military Governor of the Cavalry Province as her representative! All troops, attack!".
"Light!", shouted the 150,000 soldiers who were shaking the entire battlefield.
The 40,000 cavalry acted first, the horses belonging to the cavalry troops directly crashing into the surviving 5th division troops.
The 110,000 infantry and archers directly followed behind the cavalry, a 5th division force of less than 10,000 men being easily suppressed by Myro's newly arrived troops.
While Herfu was still standing still on the spot as a result of not knowing what to do, a man approached him with 5 strong-looking soldiers.
"Are you General Herfu? I am Garwein, a soldier under the Military Governor of the Cavalry Province! At the decision of the military governor, I will arrest the general first to find out the truth of the actions of someone who moves the border troops without the king's permission. I hope the general does not put up a fight or things will turn out to be more and more complicated" said Garwein who waved his hand to have the 5 knight troops behind him capture Herfu.
Seeing Herfu about to be captured, the Herfu military higher-ups stepped forward "How dare you! Don't you know that this person in front of you is a border general who has been loyal to his majesty for decades, General Herfu? How could he betray his majesty?".
"Then show the king's permission to allow the general to move the border troops" said Garwein coldly, he was not at all afraid even though his opponent was the famous Herfu General "The noble one has already decreed, the border general cannot move his army without the king's permission unless another kingdom attacks. But this time there was no other royal attack, then why did General Herfu dare to move his troops to Rayde City? Therefore, our coming here is to check the truth! I hope the general cooperates so that we can find out the truth as soon as possible, whether the general is indeed aiming for the Azeroth Kingdom or rebelling!".
When the Herfu higher-ups tried to fight again, Herfu stepped forward "Enough, you guys can catch me! I did break the rules, but I did everything for Azeroth Kingdom. I know of the 5th division rebel, as the royal border general then I cannot sit idly by after knowing all that to make this offense. I hope Mr. Garwein and Mr. Military Governor find out the truth about my actions. All of you, don't fight the forces of Military Governor Myro, you just shut up and let the Military Governor prove that we're not rebels".
The 5 knights beside Garwein immediately besieged Herfu and took him away, Garwein who walked beside Herfu smiled "Don't worry, general! As long as Grand Duke Rayde understood the current state of affairs, everything must have ended well".
Herfu who was taken away looked at the sky with a sigh, he knew he could not fight Myro's army.
As Garwein said, the border general did not have the Decree of the Military Governor as Myro used, therefore as long as they moved the border troops not because of any other royal attack, it was not because of any other royal attack, they will be considered rebels until the reason has been proven.
When Herfu resisted the capture of Myro's forces, he and his entire army until Carla and her grandchildren were surely considered rebels.
"Carla, it seems we lost! Finally you who always win using your cunning, now defeated by others who are much more cunning", muttered Herfu in his mind full of bitterness due to defeat of Myro.
