Chapter 11: Wait and watch
King Dhruv's POV
"Yes constructing a library within the palace would be the best decision! That would ensure that the children would come to the court frequently and learn everything about how the court functions and the justice is delivered!" I said as I approved the idea of constructing a free library within the court premises for the children in my kingdom.
I am Dhruv, the King of Surya Kingdom.
The Surya Kingdom is a vast landmass with a powerful army. What helps us more with our military defence is that it's surrounded by tallest of the mountains so it becomes easy for us to monitor the movement of other kingdoms around the borders.
It was my parents' dream to coronate me as the King and me taking my kingdom to the newer heights of the development.
Though we had never attacked any other kingdom since a decade, our spies were present in every Kingdom.
"Your majesty! I seek your permission to present an urgent need in this court." Cried a Minister of mine!
"I give you the permission. Please speak"
"Your highness! One of our sources has reported that Kshitij Kingdom along with the Harsha Kingdom are planning to wage a war against us!" He gave the news.
"Brother! Please give me a chance! I would take the leadership of the army and crush them!" Shouted Vansh, my younger brother. He was the Cfate would support me now. Vansh was one of my main reasons why my army was so powerful.
"No brother! It's the time to think and not act. We need to first wait and watch. And then decide our moves." I pacified him.
Now there was a problem. Both the rival kingdoms were highly prosperous and strong. But we were no less. We could easily give them a fight. With mountainous regions and presence of huge rivers with strong currents, we had a geographical advantage. Half of their soldiers would give up due to the harsh environmental conditions present in our borders.
"Get the army ready! Let them come! We would welcome them with the equal gusto! They have met their match!" I ordered.
