WAR OF AGES: The Beginning

The Great invasion of the Empire part 2 Malacca's Commoner's Cruel Treatment

Agus's previous policy in Recruitment did not have any discrimination had caused a massive wave of villager wanting to join his army thus the number of the recruit swelled up more than they could manage thus Agus were forced to train them into two-phase training as the newly trained soldier will be sent before the invasion and after the invasion phase

In the morning the women will be trained, Afternoon the Man will be trained while at night the mid-aged elder who is still fit will be trained by the volunteering trainer or general but the training will involve running, weight training, martial art training, sword training, dark room for grasp sensitivity of surrounding, and spiritual meditation for forging mind, body, and soul into one essence this would later become the factor.

Returning to the battlefield with the progress leaning toward Agus's favor against the Malacca empire as they lost their chance in attrition warfare for long but due the massive conscription were made by the Malaccan emperor to fill the lost rank of the Malacca's army to make sure that the favor of the war will shift in their favor.

The emperor himself saw that the war must be led personally by him but with the risk that if he died in the battle and the morale drop will make the war unrecoverable and the entire war will be won by the Majapahit's army with an old armor he took from his treasury that was taken from other fallen kingdom, he seizes it to find it fit his body size well enough as he walks to his horse and hurriedly mounts on top of it.

On the open field near the hill, the two armies saw each other in their perspective position with most of Agus's army wait on the hill as they watch the large enemy forces standing on the other side as most of the Majapahit men were nervous as this was their first large scale battle and many hold their weapon tight either the archer, infantry, spearmen, horsemen, and then they wait for the wait to end.

The Malacca's army has mixed feelings as some of them were not well equipped as many of them does not have any martial art skill and could only use a weapon such as a sword, a spear, or anything else to kill others, unlike the Majapahit army who are well trained in unarmed combat can have an ability to kill even a well-armored enemy.

Both the king and the emperor watch over their foe with caution as if gazing them to understand them before founding each other in the center of the formation as each of them has a card of their own at their disposal and prepare to send the soldier to fight with the wind blows over their face revealing simple but tense atmosphere was slowly choking the men who are tense and one of the soldier's sweatdrop while other soldier gulped in anticipation for the battle to start.

Another soldier chuckles as he could not handle the pressure as he talks to his friend on his side that he could not take it anymore and want to go to battle while his friend was sweating in his armor want to be done with it with the single leaf that falls from the tree and flies to the no man's land as both of the armies wait nervously as it lands on the ground before a shout was heard on both army and the vanguard run to the field which is three meters far as the two armies came crashing with the other armies in confrontation.

Clash of the sword was heard on the battlefield and a scream was also heard as the army slashing, stabbing, and bashing each other. The two vanguards that kill each other in vigor were mostly peasants and they were excited about their first battle tried to avenge their friend who died previously because of the war they could only blame the other.

Within a second passed five soldiers died, In minute fifty soldiers died then in hour hundred died as the army clashed with each other as the soldier falls during the battle but unlike the Malacca soldier's newly recruited from Majapahit were trained at a quick pace but very painful training which caused their sense of pain to numb.

Because they're of different skills in martial art the Malacca soldier took much more damage than they could handle thus resulting in more casualties with a large number of dead soldiers pilling up on Malacca side which caused a rapid loss of morale and nearly broke their formation but due to order of sudden retreat they successfully hold the formation just barely.

The retreated soldier this time were alerted as their enemy were formidable one thus could only wait till reinforcement from the other territory to arrive which will be a week for now but Agus army did not pursue the retreating soldier because he only wants to show them even though the land belongs to them but they can still own them like it was his own.

Making sure that their spirit wavers more for the coming battle Agus told his men to start the next phase then the messenger quickly runs to another area in the next hour a messenger arrive telling the news of the new fortification is finish and ready to be used as a rear side supply depot.

Another hour a second messenger told that the new fortification is complete and ready to be used as a front defensive base as they await the last front fort to finish construction but even they finish building it with it they will still hold the place until extensive damage is inflicted upon the enemy armies and that includes the enemy reinforcement that comes from another frontier they currently waged war against.

After hearing the news Agus told the messenger to rest and await further order and he quickly left him with another soldier and general at his side returning to watch the frontier he turns and head to the enemy camp and which he saw smoke appearing on three locations on the enemy large scale base signaling that they succeed in making chaos as they fled in cover.

The soldier that infiltrates and disguised as the enemy soldier and their surroundings is not a simple matter as they were trained by Agus how to blend into their surroundings and sadly enough even though it was a skill only the soldier obtained it but not him, saddening him in the process.

The sudden strike on the camp from the raid confused to appear everywhere thus leading some of the conscripted soldiers to either deserted their post and leave or fled causing some to stress their captain in charge while some were heard by the general and thus telling the emperor about the news.

Not giving the enemy the chance to strike once more and breaking his army apart then the emperor ordered execution for the deserter while at the same time those colleagues will also be executed to install discipline in the army.

The order was not necessary but because of it, the army morale plummets furthermore faster which made the conscripted soldier start to regret joining the army, where they want to protect their kingdom but instead they have turned nothing more than an animal waiting to be slaughtered as some the conscripted soldier also has some player that informed their friend to stay away from the Malacca's empire recruitment camp if they wish to join in if they want to stay alive while telling them the reason why.

The unlucky NPC and guard cannot leave as they were not allowed to leave even they wanted to so if they die then that's it they are forever dead unlike the player if they die then they could still come back to life like it's never happened the soldier that feared for their very life now was forced in the army and were threatened that they will be killed either directly by disobedience or indirectly because their brother in arms fled with a choice they cannot refuse no matter what happens.

The soldier who heard the order could only reveal their flustered in distress as they regret joining the army while some the soldier grumbling with the order because the officer and the noble did not trust the conscripted soldier and were the distinguished difference as the noble did not only harass the conscripted soldier but also taken their freshly hunted game which they take as their own that the soldier started to disrespect the noble, general, and their superior officer.

Without knowing the issue the emperor thought the soldier disrespect and refuse his and his officer order because they just lost the war and they did not want to serve a worthless ruler, at that very moment h ordered that any soldier to refuse any order will be executed on the spot by the empire's law because the law was meant for newly occupied territory and many of them have opposition to the invader thus the law was made to retaliate against the newly conquered population.

After knowing the new order given down by their emperor the conscripted soldier started to run away but the unlucky soldier that knew their colleague fled was then executed on the spot as a warning for the other while those how stayed where they could only wait for death coming slowly at them.

Each passing day the soldier that disobeys were given terrifying law but not all of them obediently followed as they tried to resist it, and each passing day the soldier chooses to pass the day but they refrain from helping their emperor with their own will.

Be aware that the punishment is very gruesome detail and if you dislike it you can stop reading now...

The execution will be done by disarming the culprit of the weapon then he will be stripped down n***d leaving only underwear fabric on his skin before he is tied in one place where wild animals frequently walk near it so they can feast upon the poor culprit as food because they cannot put any up fight or resistance.

Another law stated that if the culprit tried to resist then not only were the person will be stabbed near the heart his limb will be decapitated alive or death showing the participant who saw it that they felt frightened as they felt if one of their leg or arm were cut one by one as they look at the display and most of them were forced to see it even the children to install discipline.

I know right it's cruel but this is made by the fiction character not by a real person yet if there is one I guess it will be used only by underworld gangs, organizations, or lawless nations as it is the most wicked (in the worst and finest way of description) way to t*****e or sent warning to someone.
