Chapter 398 - A Tactical Genius
The Hazelgroove forces stormed the north gate to fort Magma , as a frantic effort began from the defenders to push the invaders out of the fort and secure the gates once again.
But the moment the main army stormed inside the base , it was practically over. The Hazelgroove soldiers were wayy superior to their Nineclouds counterparts and could also rival the mercenaries from the triads. In short , the quality advantage was non existent , and the tactical advantage was also gone.
With Rudra's initial plan of poisoning coming to fruition , the numerical advantage was also gone! Meaning that it was only a matter of time before the slaughter turned one sided.
And that was indeed the case , within one hour of the gates breached , the soldiers of Nineclouds kingdom were in a frantic retreat , as more and more areas of the fort fell to the enemy.
It was a chaotic battlefield , however an Hazelgroove win seemed to be set in stone at this point , and that was indeed what happened , in the next two hours the entire place was a complete wipe.
Rudra immediately ordered the men to secure the gates and man the walls , as he knew that before they coul gain a complete control over the fort , the Aquahose Kingdom forces were sure to act .
And that was indeed what happened , 4 hours later , just as they had barely consolidated their position inside fort Magma , Aquahose forces were at their foot.
However , Rudra was not an incapable general , he was already prepared for this , as the eastern wall was completely stocked with archers , who rained carnage onto the Aquahose soldiers on the foot of the hill.
The Aquahose general could only look on in horror , as his mind could not comprehend as to how a fort as terrifying as fort Magma , fell within hours . Soo much soo that the enemy even had time to consolidate.
15 minutes later and at a cost of 2000 soldiers dead , the general asked his forces to retreat. There was no poin in attacking Fort Magma at this point where the enemy had already consolidated their position. It was akin to Asking for death.
Hence in this way , Rudra had successfully captured fort Magma!
--------
( Meanwhile , somewhere in Nineclouds kingdom )
The news of Fort Magma falling had already reached Hao Mi , who was not happy about it in the slightest. To know that the Elites were the ones behind it was adding fuel to fire.
She was absolutely livid , as she read the report she could not beleive the ridiculous things stated as a reason for defeat.
Rudra's schemes were such , that to a third person , they felt like it was an obvious trap , that the ones who fell in the trap were dumb , whereas if it was someone like them , they would never fall for it.
But that is not true , Rudra's plan although sounds ridiculous on paper , was actually extremely methodical and precise. His ability to estimate the chain of events that followed a particular event was unparalled.
That is the only reason why Rudra could plan soo far. As he knew exactly what the enemy would be thinking at all times.
With Jhonny's acts of public rebellion against the triads , and the Rudra's past transgressions against Hao Mi , and now their interference in the territory building of the triads was something unacceptable to the two prideful leaders of the group.
With the newly appointed triad head , the son of the deceased triad leader killed by Jhonny pushing for a public declaration of war.
The triads posted this message on the forums
" Today we bring grevious news for the group called ' True Elites ' , for the various transgressions against us triads , we have jointly decided to annihilate your organization.
2 months and 4 days , that's how much immunity you have , because on the 5 th day , there will not be a guild hall left in the inner district of Purplehaze City .
Soo go make peace with all the demon's you can , and empty all the funds inside Ethan Grey's bank , because come judgement day , and you will face the full force of the Chinese triads.
However , we triads genuinely hope that you can prepare for judgement day In peace with friends and family , just like how the guild elder Neatwit enjoys .
Virtual or real , in any reality , the triads wish you guys the best ".
The post naturally went viral on the internet , as well as real world , as there was naturally menace within the words of the threat that the triads made.
The next day , the stocks of Grey international fell by 7% , the largest freefall in company history , showed how seriously the common people took this threat.
The parents of various elites were afraid to their bone , seeing the repeat telecasts on media about the judgement day. They were simple people and the underworld scared them.
Questions about the guild leader Neatwits family were raised , and the answer that was concealed very deeply , was getting harder to defend from public eye.
On the guilds side , everyone was a bit nervous , while the upper management was furious seeing the threats . However what both these people had in common was that they were both waiting for the guild leaders response to the situation.
Everyone wether it was Ethan Grey , the Elites family members , and the guild members , they all only had faith in one Rudra Rajput and had enough respect to wait to listen to what he had to say before formulating any opinions.
And they were right to do so , as Rudra himself was deep in thought about the future of the Elites. He knew that the collision path against the triads was long since unavoidable since the day he rejected hao Mi , however them threatening the elites in real life and the family members too , was crossing a bottom line.
Rudra was naturally furious , but the safety in real life of the Elite members was paramount. If real life safety was assured , Rudra was ready to deliver a savage reply.
However he needed to talk to Ethan Grey first.
