Rebirth Of The Strongest Guild Master - Chapter 525

Chapter 525: Defeating enemies without even knowing it

　　When the elites declared rebellion there were naturally scuffles in every major town and village , as the Elite forces had to take on the royal forces to gain complete autonomy of the region.

While everywhere except Whitecloud city the elites managed to win , under Rudra’s orders Whitecloud city was abandoned.

Rudra knew that the capital was home to the best powerhouses of the kingdom , with many tier 4 giants sleeping within the city , which would be hard to take down .

Hence right from the start Rudra gave up on Whitecloud city’s defense as he made it the final goal to be achieved.

Strategically increasing his grip over the enemy’s supply lines and forcing them to take action and leave their positions of advantage was Rudra’s way of fighting a war.

Which was exactly why he needed a three front attack , as he controlled every single supply route that went to the capital , straining the city with cut off food and other essential supplies.

This made the capital city go on a clock , as even though martial law was under effect , with all professionals having to stay at home with no work , everyone needed food for sustainance.

However with food prices rising every single day and the capability of the commoners to purchase this food without having work to replenish their money sources , made the entire city fall into chaos , as internal riots plagued Whitecloud city .

Fire and smoke was the daily routine as the city was always under a mess ever since the war had started.

However Rudra’s masterstroke was in the fact that he had masterminded this ever since his guild became the managing guild of the city , as he had depleted the strategic reserves of grain and wheat during his management , as when the royals took stock they realized that they had a week’s worth of food at max to feed the population left inside the city.

This forced the kings hand to send his best tier 4 generals to fight to procure food supplies , however the rebels played the underhanded card , as no food supply carts were allowed to pass through their routes to the capital , as the tier 4 generals although capable enough to slaughter many of the enemies , were not capable enough to prevent all of them from burning the food supplies.

Hence Dronacharya recieved a slap in his face when he tried to interfere in Rudra’s plans , as he realized that even when he sent reinforcements in the form of numeric troops to ensure safe passage of goods and supplies. It was simply impossible for them to safely transport a single grain to the capital considering how many villages the elites controlled , whose only task was to burn the goods down , not caring about personal safety at all.

Rudra fighting a war of attrition compared to a physical war dumbfounded dronacharya who had prepared thoroughly for a massive conflict however never even had the idea of causing such strategic trouble . He had no food reserves personally at hand to alleviate the capitals troubles , nor any idea on how to get the food supplies to the capital with the transportation array being destroyed by the elites before they left the city.

Rudra had thoroughly planned this conflict and even though he was not at the forefront of the fighting , everything was running smoothly with Karna taking charge and the elders more than holding their own at every war front.

The Russians were also a massive help to the cause , as Lita was incredibly impressed by Rudra ‘s ruthless tactics.

However , not only was Rudra the problem instigator , but he was also the angel in these times of distress , as it was again him , who was smuggling bread into the city , feeding the hungry and getting them to join the cause of the elites against the royals.

Rudra was smuggling nearly one million units of bread to the city , as his name grew by the day , as more and more people discontent with the royals were joining his side , for a piece of bread not even worth 1 silver.

This was his masterstroke as he got soldiers for as cheap as 2-3 silvers , while his image became that of an angel , an savior and an empathizer of the masses , while he was the root cause of the problems.

Day after day the situation in the capital worsened as more and more officials died coming into conflict with angry mobs of people who ripped Whitecloud city from the inside , as the royal forces and the masses clashes for control.

A simple commodity like food , gave Rudra the power to topple the order of a city , as with a little bit of misinformation being spread by his men inside the city regarding how the royals had feast everyday while the commoners starved , instigated the commoners to storm the palace gates.

That was exactly what rudra wanted as day after day the crowd outside the palace increased in size as it was only a matter of time before the gate was breached and all hell broke loose.

Now all he needed to do was to wait for that moment and take control of the kings throne and declare it’s independence!

However much to his dismay it seemed like the palace would fall much before he could recuperate to his prime , which made things more complicated as someone needed to sit on the throne …. But it would unfortunately not be him .

However while Rudra sulked over such pointless things , as wether he sat on the throne or some other elite they were all going to swear fealty to the Elite dukedom and merging it into the Elite kingdom as Rudra would become king anyway.

Dronacharya was sulking over the fact that he was able to do nothing to flush Rudra out for a frontal conflict as day after day he marvelled at Rudra’s schemes while feeling powerless to disrupt it through his.

He was defeated once again without his enemy even trying. This left a deep psychological scar in his mind.
