6 Tsukosa Alliance (1/2)

In a Large Region called Ekigatamura. There are total of seven countries in it. The biggest one was the Tsuchiya. The second one was the Saiju, And the third one is the Kosunjin-yi. The rest was an ordinary countries. The Tsuchiya were on the corner part of their region. Then a bit of unoccupied lands then it's the sea. The Saiju were on Northeastern of Tsuchiya. Then the Kosunjin-yi on the East of Tsuchiya. Then the rest of the countries were past the two countries that is surrounding Tsuchiya. The small countries are named: Soma, Yugara, Jima and Chu-Yuan

The Saijuns, The Kosun and other countries within the region were jealous of the Tsuchiya's rich economy. This is where their history started. The Saiju started by choosing to have a trade route with the Tsuchiya. The leader of the Tsuchiya agreed to this because they have a lot to spare and use it to gather whatever resources they currently don't have. Once the trades has been going smoothly and the relationship between the countries have been on good condition. The leader of the Saiju gave the Kosun leader a call to have a secret alliance and together they shall take anything. or if possible, They shall destroy everything and take the lands of Tsuchiya. But the Kosun leader had a doubt on taking over the Tsuchiya. So the Kosun leader just sticks to the original plan.

But the Saijun Leader didn't quite like their ally's decision so the Saijun leader plans to invade them by themselves. Then both countries started to send a spy after spy to the Tsuchiyans. The Spies couldn't get anything useful and reports back horribly. Until the Saijun leader couldn't wait any longer, The Saijun army entered the border of the Tsuchiya without the permission. Unfortunately for them, A Tsuchiyan trader with a horse carriage was on his way to the Saiju Village then he saw the army's formation marching inside the border. At first, He thought it was just an army training or a mere visit. But he had a doubt as He heard no visitors and checked the amount of the marching foot soldiers.

With that, He hurriedly turned back to his village and quickly went to their Center to report. The Tsuchiyan leader quickly responded to this and assign some guards to the direction of where they were coming from. Few minutes later, The guards saw the marching soldiers and quickly runs back to the Center to confirm the suspicions to be true. This time, The Tsuchiyan leader assigned their fresh new battalion to the said direction, To test out their strength. It was named The First Armored Battalion. It consists of Fairly armored soldiers,Cavaliers and Archers. The Saijun army were no match for this. Though, The soldiers at the battalion were uncomfortable with their commander. The commander was a young 17 years old boy with a name of Takamura Yagano. The Tsuchiyan people have no idea why the leader assigned such a young person as the leader of a new battalion. Then moments later, the people of Tsuchiya asked the leader about the young commander. He answered once: ”I watched him grow up wielding and swinging swords. Then one day i went to his side as he collapse from fatigue. I picked up his sword and asked why is he wielding a sword. Then He stood up and looked straight to my eyes. His gaze was sharp and so determined. Then He answered: For my Family, For my siblings, For Tsuchiya. I will soon serve the army and swear my life to protect my beloved village until the end! .. I was astonished.. If there's one thing i wish for our army to have, is to have that kind of Determination. This kid, will change our entire army's determination to fight. He will inspire many to fight and protect their beloved ones. I believe on him”. The leader's answer stunned the Tsuchiyan people. Then some people put their trust on the young soldier with the leader's words, But others still had doubt. But that doesn't stop the young Yagano.

The soldier leading and commanding the marching army saw the Tsuchiyan battalion waiting for them from the village. He observed the battalion, Yagano hid their Cavalries and Archers to trick the Saijun Army. Then He thought there will be a lot of loses to their sides because of the Tsuchiyan soldiers' armor being more improved than theirs. Then He faced the army and inspired them. Then finally He let out a shout and raised his sword to the air, Then the whole army did the same and started charging towards the Tsuchiyan battalion. As planned, The Saijun Army went charging to their death. It was Yagano's plan to trick them. This amazed the hiding soldiers, The Raiding Saijun Army was completely roped into battle, knowing the Tsuchiyans only have foot soldiers to send. This greatly proves the Ineffective Spying of the Saijuns and The silent people of Tsuchiya. Once every Saijun soldiers are fighting, Yagano leads the remaining soldiers with his horse, to come out of hiding and fight alongside the foot soldiers who was already fighting. Archers left the Cavalries as soon as they are on the range. Then Yagano and the Cavalries went ahead and broke through the enemies. Pushing the enemies to the ground and ending up being stabbed by the Foot soldiers whilst on the ground. The Cavalries' entrance already made great lose to the Saijuns. Then Yagano ordered the Foot soldiers and Cavalries to fall back from the remaining enemies and ordered the Archers to rain them down with arrows. The Saijuns were shocked and retreated without the leading soldier telling them to do so. But even He wanted to retrear and also ran away with them. The archers advanced through and aims at the sky, wishing to finish them off. But Yagano stopped them, As the soldiers asked, Yagano said ”That'll be our message to the Saiju”.The soldiers were impressed by how the young commander thinks and just watch the Saiju scurry away

As they are about to return, A soldier on a horse arrived. ”Yagano! Our Enemies have tricked us! Enemies have overrunned the Eastern part! We did our best to hold them off! But they are way too many! Please, Go in there!” Yagano agrees and asked the soldier to lead the way. The Cavalries and Yagano went first for as the Foot soldiers will run. When they have started to hear the chaos, Yagano raised his sword on the air and shouted. ”Soldiers! We'll drive these traitors out of our beloved country and village! We'll show them the strength of Tsuchiyans!” Then he lowered his arm and raised it again with strength. ”For Tsuchiya!!” He shouted and the whole Cavalries behind him shouts as a war cry and sped up their horses. Once they saw the enemies. Yanano shouts: ”Ready!”. Then the Cavalries held their spears with their right hands as they charge towards the enemies. Yagano being in the front, He get to face an enemy first. Yagano readies his sword. When he was close to the enemy, He turned his horse a little to the left and leans to the right and swings his sword, stabbing the enemy soldier. Yagano's sword remains stuck at the soldier's body, So He swings it forward to send the body flying. He got out of the village so He stopped his horse and turn back, then He saw the Cavalries follow him with bloods on them. ”Again!” Yagano ordered them and quickly went back. The Cavalries followed him with a war cry.

As they reach the village again, Yagano put his horse on the highest speed. When He's about to face an enemy. He quickly put his feet to the back of the horse and jumps to an enemy soldier and stab him in his chest. The horse kept running, crashing into an enemy. The speed of the horse and the force from his jump combined together sent the enemy soldier to the ground and making the sword dig deeper to his chest, The enemy soldier quickly dies. Yagano was surprised, Aside from the first one, That was his first kill, Face to Face. He was about to space out then an enemy soldier screams and swings his sword at Yagano. But Yagano quickly moved to his left while still gripping on his sword, Then He bumps his body to the enemy then gathered strength to remove his sword fromthe body and swing it on the enemy's neck. It hit. The enemy soldier drops his sword as blood spurt out of his neck with the sword stuck on it. Then Yagano pushed his sword

deeper then placed his elbow to the enemy's chest then uses it to push away the enemy and pull his sword from the neck. Once He felt that the sword was loosened, He stopped pushing with his elbow and pulled the sword with all his might, making the enemy kneel. As soon as He got his sword out, He quickly gather his strength and swings his sword back to the enemy's neck. completely beheading him.

Then He looked around to see the Cavalries also stepped out of their horses to fight on foot. Then His gaze stopped on a group of enemy soldier slowly approaching him. Then He slowly backs off. ”Too many..” He whispers to himself. Then He realized backing off any further is pointless,So He stopped and held his sword with both hands in front of him, Tightens his grip to his sword. The enemy group keeps getting closer, Yagano steps his right foot back and readies. Then the enemy soldier in front of the group moves first and charges towards, then the rest followed. Yagano strengthen his stance as He saw the enemies charge. Then all of the sudden, Yagano heard a herd behind him, and so the enemies who have stop their charge to look at them. Yagano saw the faces of the enemy soldiers then looks behind him. It was the Foot soldiers from his battalion. As they get closer, All of them started screamind. Then Yagano looks back at the enemy soldier near him, The soldier froze to his position. Noticing Yagano's gaze, He slowly looks back at Him. Then Yagano stepped back slowly as the Foot soldiers get even closer. The enemy soldier in the front relaxes and looked back to the group and told them to get ready and makes a stance.

Then finally the Foot soldiers reached them, Yagano hid himself with the vast amount of the charging foot soldiers. Then the sounds of a battle, Clashing swords and the screams of the soldiers, can now be heard loudly. It was not long before the sounds stopped as they quickly finished off the group that was attacking Yagano, and pressed forward, And there the sounds of chaos continued. Yahano's foot soldiers clashes with the remaining soldiers as He walks in and observe the chaos. As he stopped on the middle, One enemy soldier managed to slip away from the soldier He was facing and quickly runs towards Yagano and raised his sword on the air. But at the same time He landed his sword, Yagano quickly pushes himself towards the enemy, Stumbling him back and losing focus. With this, Yagano quickly stabbed the soldier to his stomach. Then Yagano forcefully pulled his sword off, Sending the enemy to the ground. Then He continued to observe the battlefield.

Until the last enemy soldier dies. Everything went quiet. Then the remaining Tsuchiyan Foot soldiers screams and raised their swords on the air, Indicating a Victory. Then Yagano went on the middle of the soldiers. Noticing Yagano, The supposedly Cavalries and Foot soldiers gathers to encircle Yagano. Then Yagano speaks ”Soldiers! Let's promise... No..” Then Yagano points his sword at the sky then shouts loud: ”Let's swear our lives to protect what's ours at all cost! We'll slay every Tsuchiya's enemy! We'll destroy countries after countries if it means to do good for Tsuchiya!” Then the surrounding soldiers also raised their sword on the air and screams. ”For Tsuchiya!” Yagano screams. ”For Tsuchiya! For Commander Yagano!” The soldiers also screamed, and started to put trust on Yagano. Then the encirclement dispersed as the soldiers talk to each other. Yagano observed his soldiers having a friendly conversations. Then the Archers have arrived on foot. ”Where were you?” Yagano walked to them and asked the Officer. ”Commander, There were another attack coming from the North Eastern part of our village happened after the foot soldier left our previous location. We met up with a soldier on a horse and sent us there. Luckily there were few of them there.. How about here?” The Officer of the Archers answered and asked about the situation. ”They were no match, We are far more armored and trained than them. There were no loses” Yagano proudly answered. ”Hah! We didn't even break a sweat!” A Foot soldier heard their conversation and butts in. Then few moments later, Yagano called the whole Battalion and they returned to the Capital. They were greeted by cheering crowds on the Center where most of people was evacuated there.

The Saiju have faced a huge consequences and lost half of their military. Knowing the Defeat of the Saiju against the Tsuchiya, The Saijun leader pressured the Kosun to demand that the Tsuchiyan have killed the Saijuns who were suppose to be sparring with them, and use it to join the Saiju's side against the Tsuchiya. Then asked to brainwash the other countries into getting them on their side. Of course, The Tsuchiya have a rich economy and it's not just the Saiju nor The Kosuns wanted their treasures but all of the neighboring countries so they agreed to join the alliance. The Tsuchiyan felt like the world was against them, Which the most Tsuchiyan feared. But their military never showed any fear and are willing to die for their country. This was because of Yagano's unbelievable faith towards their military strength.

The Tsuchiyan leader, knowing that even if they have a way more advanced technologies, It'll be impossible for them to face a whole region's army, quickly thinks of defensive strategies. The Tsuchiya knows that they will definitely attack together, So He thought many defensive formations and plans for improving weapons and any other equipment. Then few days have passed, The Tsuchiyans were glad they were able to rebuild without any problem. But this also confirm the enemies' intention, They were gathering storm. The leader used this opportunity to make improvements. Few more days, They have developed Catapult. Its bucket is large and they are wheeled. Then the leader asked the people outside of their village within their border to help the soldiers find projectiles for the Catapults, Mostly huge rocks or stones. Few Even more days, They produced enough Catapults and they're only waiting for them to attack. While waiting, The leader thinks it will be good if they produce more Catapults as reserves while waiting for the enemies. Then Yagano came to suggest that the reserves should be hidden from ANY sight. The leader carefully thinks of an idea. Then finally came up with an underground base. The leader thinks of a place for the underground, Then chose to the nearest vacant and less populated area, West of the Center. The builders were fascinated by the idea of underground, But they had a hard time building it as it's their first time making one.

Another few days have passed, They finally finished making their first underground along with all the rebuilds of the village. The underground was big enough to fit exactly ten catapults, Then some small rooms for weapons,shields and armors. The leader asked Yagano to name the underground because it's his idea and it'll be their very place for emergencies. Yagano gave it a name 'Kakure Kyuden' Which means 'Hidden Palace'. Then the leader officially named it 'Kakure Kyuden'. Yagano also suggested that they should add the Kakure Kyuden to their education but the contents of it remains a secret as the leader plan to share their educations to their neighboring countries once the war is over. Even by that, Yagano noticed that their leader still cares about their neighboring countries.

Then finally one day, A Recon came back to their Center and reports a huge amount of soldiers heading towards their direction. The Village suddenly became busy. Soldiers running on the streets, Civilians getting their things from their houses and running, Hurrying Carriages, Soldier pushing carts full of weapons and equipment, Group of Soldiers pushing Catapults. Everyone's busy in preparing for the invasion. Then later the whole village became quiet. The Catapults are placed around the village, There were also Soldiers stationed around the village. Yagano's Battalion and another Battalion commanded by the name of Fukoda, were outside of the village, facing the direction of where the invading force. The two Commander were standing in front of their Battalions. The plan was to lessen the numbers of the enemies by raining them down with big stones that were collected by the soldiers, The big stones were sculpted to fit the buckets of the Catapults. They were fully stocked with the big sculpted stones and the enemies doesn't even know they have a ballistic weapon that could kill several soldiers at a single fire. The Catapults were really their best ticket to win against the invading forces.

Few moments later, Yagano and Fukoda finally heard and saw the enemies charging. Even though the enemies were just a load of Foot Soldiers, They were countless and can overwhelm Yagano and Fukoda's Battalion in a second. The Two Commanders looked at each other and nods, Then faced their Battalion. Yagano speaks up. ”Soldiers! The time has come! The enemies have finally shown themselves! Once the Catapults have made their part, We'll do our duties and protect our beloved village! For Tsuchiya!!” Yagano raised his sword as he screamed the name of their village and the whole Battalion also did the same, including Fukoda himself. Then looked back at the invading enemies. At the time, The leader thought of an impressive defense, If only there's something to guard whole the village everytime, If only there's a way to hold off enemies from going in the village without losing manpower. What kind of things that swords and such weapons can't harm? It's got to be tougher than a human, What else could be tougher than humans and at the same time can withstand a sword's sharp blades? It is the stones. Now what to do with the stones? I wanted to keep any intruders from entering the village from all direction.. So that means gathering stones around the village. No, Just simply putting stones around will do no good. I will make the stones stand as a thousand shields to hold off thousands of swords. I can make it .. We can make it! .. With a few moments, The leader had the implementation of the Wall on his mind and tasked their builders to build it right away.

Few moments later, The enemy forces has reached the maximum range of the Catapults. The Catapults were commanded to wait for a few seconds, Then finally ordered to rain them down. The Catapults violently throws huge stones at the field. The whole Battalion watches the stones fly at the enemies' direction. Seeing the flying stones, The enemies' stopped charging for a brief moment at seeing the stones fly and began charging again. Blood splatters as the stones crushed many charging soldiers and are stuck on ground. Crews from the Catapults carried their own stones to their own Catapults and fires. The stones hits a lot of enemy soldiers again. As they get closer, Confused and Afraid voices can now be heard coming from the charging enemies. The Catapults threw their last barrage before signalling the Battalions. The Enemies were greatly decreased but they gave no care about it and continued to charge forth. Yagano and Fukoda let out an order on their own Battalions and all of them charges to the enemies. The Cavalries were on the front with Archers on their back. While getting closer, The Archers shot their arrows on the air to the enemies, killing a few of them. Then the Archers went down rolling from the Cavalries and divided themselves and quickly ran to the sides to make way for the Foot soldiers. The Cavalries went ahead and stabs the leading enemy soldiers and quickly turn back. There were enemy soldiers who threw their swords at the Cavalries in hope of stumbling the horses. The Cavalries also did the same as the Archers. Then once the two armies met, The Sound of Chaos began. Yagano and Fukoda slashing and stabbing enemies without mercy and pushing them back bit by bit, Archers raining down the enemies from a distance and Cavalries charging and stabbing enemies and charging forth to stumble enemy soldiers and turn back and do it again.After the Tsuchiyan Battalions pushed the enemies enough, The Catapults starts firing again. This was risky as it could hit their own allies but the soldiers didn't disagree on this because they are willing to kill as many as they can and also said that they will be careful not to hit by them. The Leader then let them do what they wish. The Catapults were throwing stones and decreasing the enemy forces by large numbers. The Catapults' stones were hitting the enemy forces that is away from the clashes between the two sides. Few moments later, The Tsuchiyan Battalions started to experience loses, Their counts started to fall. Fukoda noticed this quickly and told Yagano to retreat and let the Catapults rain them down as they retreat. Yagano agrees to this and shouted to retreat. Then the wounded Battalions retreated with their Commanders behind them. The Crews of the Catapults were surprised by the retreat. Then one of the crew of a Catapult speaks up first. ”They are retreating?! Are they losing?!” Then the Leader spoke up. ”No, Soldier” Then the crew of the Catapult were all surprised and quickly look behind them. ”L-Leader?!” The whole crew mentioned their Leader. ”Look at it. They were indeed losing counts. Soldiers from separate countries have separate tactics and will, which is really do unfair. But i know that those two Commanders weren't retreating because they can't fight anymore. They are retreating for you Catapults to fire at them” The Leader speaks as He observe the battlefield. ”Y-Yeah, I think your right” A crew agrees and they looked back at the battlefield. Then later a crew spotted Yagano and pointed at him. Yagano was raising his hands while running, trying to signal the Catapults. ”Look at him! He's trying to tell something! Q-Quick! Ready the Catapults!” The Catapults suddenly worked up and readies to fire. Then in a call, The Catapults fired at the advancing enemy forces, killing several enemies again. After that fire, The enemies finally stopped charging. Fukoda noticed this and told the Battalions to stop, Then Yagano raised his hands again to signal the Catapults to hold fire. Then the whole Battalion slowly walks toward the enemy forces. The enemy forces were visibly gripping their swords very tight as they watch the Tsuchiyans walk towards them. The Battalions stopped walking from a safe distance from the enemies. ”What are they doing?!” A Crew from a Catapults shouts. ”Silence, Soldier” Leader calmly scolded the crew.

Yagano walks forward a bit then talks to enemies. ”Everyone! Let's stop this meaningless war and stop the pointless deaths of our brave warriors!”. Then the enemy soldiers started to whisper. Then one soldier, visibly wearing clothes with a symbol of the Soma Village, spoke up. ”But you broke the pact between the three large countries and slain the Saijun soldiers!”. Fukoda swings his sword to the side and shouted in rage. ”They never told they were coming and went inside our border, That was a clear Tresspassing!”. The Soman soldier fell silent and so the rest of his allies. Then Fukoda continues. ”Yagano, THIS Commander! saw their faces as they charge! The War is written all over them!”. The enemies is starting to doubt the lie against the Tsuchiya. ”Then all of the sudden, There were reports that the other side is also under siege! And guess what?! Once my Battalion was quickly assigned to the area, I saw the Saijun soldier killing our people and destroying their homes!” Fukoda ranted more. ”Do you REALLY think they wanted a fucking sparring?!”. Fukoda stomps on the ground hard. Despite his rage, A soldier with a familiar Kosun design went to the front to face his group. ”Don't believe the Tsuchiyan lies!” Then He looked at Yagano and Fukoda. ”They're trying to hide the truth by some nonsense!” This enraged Fukoda even more, But Yagano pats his shoulder and indicates that He should calm down and He'll handle the situation. Then Yagano faced the Kosun soldier and said: ”Before you Kosun people point your finger and declare a war like an idiot. Do you even show these brave warriors and their countries a proof of what have they been fighting just now?” Yagano looked at the Kosun soldier's eyes directly with a serious tone. This froze the Kosun soldier and the whole enemy group started to whisper. ”Look at these warriors. They have saw their comrades getting crushed by our weapons and dying like an animal. And for what? For what exactly?” Then Yagano looked at the group behind the Kosun soldier, Then the whispers stopped. ”Brave warriors of Tsuchiya's neighbors!” This made the group gasp in surprise. ”What exactly have you been fighting for just now?” Yagano asked and stayed quiet for a while for them to answer. But nobody answered. ”Exactly. You are clueless! The Kosun and the Saiju lied to you! Us Tsuchiyans didn't broke any pact and the Saijuns themselves are the one who broke everything! They are desperate to take our homes just for the resources we could trade with you! I even bet some of you agreed to join them because they said they'll share the rewards. What a blackmail” This made the group even more surprised. Then He looked back at the Kosun soldier, who was sweating bullets. ”Isn't that right? .. Kosunjin-Yi..?” Yagano sharply stared at the Kosun soldier. ”Y-You..... Don't fuck with me you fucking brat!” The Kosun soldier unsheathed his sword, looked back at his group and shouted: ”Everyone! Your brothers have something to fight for! and it is Valuable! Our leader promised to share the resources these traitors have! Imagine how your countries will be rich after this! Don't believe this little brat's bullshit! He even look too young to understand all of these!” Despite his attempt to inspire his allies, There were no single soldier that supported him. ”U-Ugh....!” The Kosun soldier was visibly uncomfortable and getting out of control. ”You little kid....!” The Kosun soldier grips his sword tight in anger. ”You and your country is a traitor and shall be erased from existence!” The Kosun soldier shouted at Yagano and charges towards him, Surprising the enemy group.

The Kosun soldier raised his sword on the air and swings it down at Yagano. But Yagano quickly moved to his left and avoided the sword. Then He grabbed the Kosun soldier's body with his hands and pulled him closer and struck his right knee to the soldier's stomach, making him lower his upper body and let out a grunt. Then He moved his right feet back and pushed it through both of the soldier's feet. The force from Yagano's kick removes the soldier's feet from the ground and fell. Then Fukoda unsheathe his sword and points at the Kosun soldier's head, preventing him to stand up. The enemy group gave no response at all and looked at Yagano instead. ”If you keep obeying this person, More of you will die a meaningless death and your countries will just lose manpower and your countries would be very prone to invasions. specially if the Northern region invades us here at the South. Not even Tsuchiya could handle them” Yagano warned the enemy soldiers with their pointless invasion. ”Heh... The Mortem Regio, Or the Death Region if memory serves well. You don't want to mess with those crazy bastards will you?” Fukoda taps the Kosun soldier's head and faced the enemy group. ”They didn't get to name their own region for nothing! They are known for their addictions to wars and their obsessions to Human Skull drawings and dark armors. We are lucky the alliance between our region and the Western region won against them and the Eastern regions on a whim from the Great war. Ever since then those bastards admits defeat and return everything they took and cut their relations with the Eastern region, Simply ending the war. But those bastards refused to connect with the world and isolated themselves. Because of this, the Western power went to visit them but were stopped by the soldiers guarding the region's borders and threatens them. So they just let them be. After a few months the countries within the Northern region decided to name their region 'Mortem Regio' Which i think it means 'Death Region' in their language. And not for too long They named their soldiers 'Bellatores Mortis' Which i forgot what it means. Then later, The names is slowly fitting them as they develop technologies ahead of the Western region. They even secretly destroyed the Eastern region for punishment. This was only revealed by an adventurer but the Western didn't do anything” Fukoda tells a history, To even scare off the enemy soldiers

”Yes. Long story short, These guys are not to be mess with anymore. If these guys went berserk again, no one knows who are going to be the target. But taking a hint from the Great war, It's possible that it'll be us this time” Yagano supported Fukoda's words, scaring the enemy soldiers even more. ”So, What it's gonna be? Learning the truth and serve your countries with better reasons or Die like an animal and serve no purpose?” Yagano asked the soldiers as he observed them whisper. He saw some Kosun soldiers who were surprised and confused. Then Yagano unsheathe his sword and shouted: ”If you choose to continue this nonsense, We'll not stop you! We'll respect your own choices! We'll finish what we have done! We'll do our own duties as a brave warriors! For our countries!” This made the enemy soldiers much noisier. Yagano waited for a moment, then turned his back to the enemy soldiers and started to walk away, But then. ”We...We'll not fight anymore!” A voice came out for Yagano, stopping the noise and making Yagano look back. ”We'll not fight the Tsuchiyan anymore!” A soldier with Yugara Village's design speaks with Yagano. Then another Yugaran soldier catches his shoulder and said: ”You idiot! What do you think you're doing?! This is not the order!”. The surrendering soldier grips his fists and replied: ”No! I knew this is all wrong from the beginning..”. This made the enemy soldiers whispers as they look at the him. Then his companion shakes his shoulder and shouted. ”What are you talking about?!”. Then He shouts back. ”It's as they said! We have no proof that they have broken their pact! They only said that and now were invading?!” Then He shakes his shoulder to get his companion's hands off and went in front of Yagano and kneels. ”Tsuchiya! We apologize for our selfishness! We didn't think this through!” The kneeling Yugaran soldier begs for forgiveness. Then his companion shouted at him: ”You idiot! Do you think this will be easy?! You'll be killed for betra-!” His rant was interrupted by a Kosun soldier going up front, Few fellow Kosun soldier followed him and there were few remains from the group. ”Everyone! Everything the Saijuns have told us is a lie! This is no longer manageable by Kosunjin-yi! This was all the Saijun's plan! They told us Kosun to join their cause if they fail to overrun the Tsuchiya Village!” A high ranking-looking Kosun soldier revealed the truth. Making the group noisy with angry conversation. ”Soldiers!” The high ranking Kosun soldier called out for his soldiers, Then lots of his soldier came rushing behind him and they all kneel at the same time. ”Forgive our country, Tsuchiya! We were desperate for your resources and were only forced to this. On behalf of our people and our leader, May you forgive us!” The high ranking Kosun apologized. Seeing their leading country's soldier kneel, All of the remaining enemy soldiers did the same. Ending their conflict.

”Hah! Hey, look at them!” Fukoda taps the Kosun soldier who he was guarding before. Enraged by Fukoda's attitude, The Kosun soldier fend off his sword and throws a punch to Fukoda, But Fukoda didn't even flinch. ”Heh.. You want a piece of me?” instead he scoffed. Then the Kosun soldier hurriedly picked up his sword and moved away. ”You traitors! You're betraying our own countries!” He shouted at his surrendering comrades. ”Yeah, You're kind of betraying your own country, Kosun?” Fukoda asked the high-ranking Kosun soldier. ”No, It's not” He replied, shocking the whole people. ”The leader heavily relied on me on this one. If we were exposed, we will give up everything. Our leader knows what the Tsuchiyans have and is impossible to win. But if somehow we managed to win, we will continue. That's what our leader told me” The high-ranking Kosun calmly explains. ”No... You're all a liar! You're all betrayer of your kinds!” The resisting Kosun soldier snaps and charges towards his kneeling comrades. The High ranking Kosun soldier quickly stood up, stopping the resisting Kosun soldier from charging and instead went for him. The resisting Kosun soldier swings his sword violently, But the high-ranking Kosun found an opening and quickly pushed his body against him, both falling to the ground. The high ranking Kosun quickly recovered and stomps the resisting soldier's hands to make him lose grip to his sword, Then held his head to the ground. ”You have to calm down. Soldier!” The high ranked tries to calm the resisting soldier down. ”Calm down?! Our leader never told us such things! You're making stuffs just like those Tsuchiyan trash! Betrayer!” The whole people watch him squirm against the high ranking Kosun. ”The leader only told me this to ensure there will be nothing else to happen!” The high ranked explains furiously. ”Bullshit! You're all betrayer!” The soldier resisted even more and the High ranked had enough, He quickly let go of the resisting soldier, took his sword out and flips the soldier and stabs his neck. ”You're the betrayer. You're disobeying your higher ups AND your leader's order! You wanna die for the Kosunjin-Yi's sake?! Then Here! I grant you your wish!” Then He pushed his sword even deeper to his neck and quickly pulls it out.

The High ranked Kosun relaxed himself and faced Yagano. ”Tsuchiya. I hope you believe us. We were driven out of hope and wished to just steal everything from you, And it was all the Saijun's influence. Our leader never wished for wars like these”. The high ranking Kosun were sincere, making Fukoda become serious. ”So you're not as blind as the Saijuns eh? As expected of your weird country name, you were different” The high ranked Kosun quickly said: ”It's not a weird name”. But Fukoda just shrugs off. ”Yes, It's not. Kosun. Now that you have gave up the war, What are you going to do with these soldiers from different countries?” Yagano asked the High ranking Kosun. ”Oh, Yeah. The Saiju assigned us as the leader of our alliance so you know, To hide that we have a connection with them.
