With the new found force that was the Won Knight foot - soldier division , Rudra was feeling much more confident about the upcoming competition.

The soldiers provided by Patricia were all peak tier one at level 75 . Their strength far surpassed a normal adventurers . Plus they were proficient in combat formations and military tactics. The soldiers were a cohesive unit who could work better together.

Now that the matter of total forces was settled , he needed to decide on a plan of action. He had a rudimentary idea about what he wanted to do. But he was not foolish enough to think that he alone could come up with the best strategy. He decided to hold a meeting and take everyone's views on his plan.

In the guild conference room , Rudra and all the elders gathered , also Legolas , Princess Ruby , and deputy commander of won knight forces Gimli was present.

Gimli had hit it with Legolas apparently as it was clear that both were very fond of each other , however had this rivalry sparked as to who was better.

Rudra found this rivalry interesting to say the least. It was a good thing for him , as both had a friendly rivalry going on to see whose division would slay more beasts.

Rudra unflurred a map of Purplehaze city on the table and explained..

" Okay , here's what I have thought soo far. We have buildings all over the city. In these positions that are atleast three floor tall buildings , we will palce the archballistae

". Saying soo he took a red marker and circled all buildings where archballistae was to be placed in red.

" These are all the one and two storey shops , here we will have medical units , supplies and nominal reinforcements. To help someone retreat to safety and heal the injured

". Saying so he circled the one and two storey shops with a blue marker.

" These are all the open fields and unconstructed grounds we own in the city . We will build reinforcement camps here. With no more than 100 troops in each camp

". Saying so Rudra drew a yellor circle over all the open fields in Purplehaze city.

The plan of action is this , if we observe the map carefully , we will find out that in districts 3, 5 ,7 and 12 we have the archballistae tower and reinforcement camp relatively close. It means that in these districts we will have a strategic advantage when holding the lines. If we hold the lines at street number 11 , 15 , 16 and 19 we can push forward , retreat and regroup easily without much hassle. With the archballistae covering the troops from height , you will only need to hold the enemy beasts to get them showered by arrows.

Hence in these districts 4 districts we will let the strong won knight division hold the lines. With about 8000 troops. 2000 in each district.

Gimli looked at the map and nodded. His Liege was a capable commander , he was feeling warm to see that another won knight had brilliant military mind.

In districts 1,2,4 and 6 there is the archballistae towers and three of them at that in each district , bringing the total to 12 archballistae towers. , however only one reinforcement ground is available in these four districts. There are seven medical centers available though. Hence in these districts. Our strategy will be based around versatility . We will maneuver in areas around the archballistae towers and not stray further out.

We will have smaller party of four players roaming these districts , at any sign of serious danger ,call for nominal reinforcements from the medical centre or fall back to medical centre and get yourself healed.

For these districts , I wish to deploy 800 Elite players , 1000 Won knight soldiers and 1000 archers.

Also Neatwit will be responsible for these districts.

Districts 8,9,10,11 will be under Legolas and his Elven division. These are the most prosperous districts in outer city and have lots of high buildings and well built structures. I'm not as knowledge as sir Legolas in the military field and would not dare to give him pointers , the distribution of archballistae towers , reinforcement camps and medical units Is before you , please adopt the strategy you feel is best.

Legolas nodded , he liked that the kid although a brilliant commander knew how to respect others too . Legolas was a esteemed Elven archer , he had fought more battled than Rudra had heard about. Their experience was not comparable. Also he knew the Elven division under him the best . Allowing him to work with a free hand was the best choice , and would lead to best results.

Ruby who was silently observing the war discussions was mesmerized by it , the intricate panning and the serious atmosphere made her feel excited about the coming event. She was never allowed to watch such things in Vanaheim , she was soo happy to be here in Purplehaze City.

Now for the inner district , it will be headed by vice guild master Karna and Me , it will be the area that the stronger monsters will target , and where the royal military would be most concentrated. Our task there would be to assist the military and obtain the 100,000 merit points token .

About 300 combat guild elites , all lifestyle guild elites and the remaining won knight division troops will be here . The guild headquarters will be our base of operations , as we have no other property inside inner city.

There are no archballistae towers or medical center's here. And the fight will be most brutal , wether we can gain enough merit points to win the management rights or not depends on the performance here.

Finally , **G and his 300 assasin brethren under the guidance of sir Jhonny English will be responsible for information relay and disrupting other guilds in their kills.

You will monitor all districts , relay information and serve as a link between all units. It is a crucial role I hope you guys fullfill it well.

Jhonny nodded , he in his usual cool attitude said

" don't worry the opponents won't even know what hit them!

".
