Because the soldier no longer has authority or right. They previously had, now they are forced to help their superior and noble while at the same time their share was taken which is an extreme form of extortion. Not knowing what to do they are tired to a point of exhaustion either physically and emotionally. The soldier that tried to resist were tired beyond belief from the constant order at the same time because they are still fighting the enemy. The lucky soldier is those who died by the enemy soldier or were executed because of the supposed insubordination, while those who are not struggling to survive. The noble and superior who take their food cause them to wish to die much quicker because during the day one of their friends died at their side while having an empty eye and as they thought their friend was just asleep the dead body fall to the grass. Their superior who just passed the dead body slightly laugh as he said the dead body should have been thrown to the wild or treated like a speck of dirt. Thus a rebellion started to occur like wildfire causing damage to the camp, because of the sudden attack the rebel did some damage to the noble but due to weaker stamina, equipment, and experience the noble could put resistance against the rebel before they put them down. The emperor who saw it was surprised by the sudden rebellion and seek to find the truth of it and what he did not expect was the noble he trusted to command the soldier were extorted the citizen and the lowborn soldier. The army's strength was lowered by the noble's action and caused a massive setback and casualties which should have not to happen. The emperor was out of words as he wanted to order the execution of the culprit but if he did it then he would have fewer numbers that needed to hold the line so he could only grit his teeth in anger. His brother also joins the campaign to retaliate against Agus's army he also has done the same as the other noble but much lesser which shouldn't cripple an army that much. He not expected the noble to take the army ration which meant for the soldier but never expect to be betrayed by the noble who is filled it greed that they even ordered an execution with the reason of insubordination as the cause of it. He was going to explain that he take the spoil of his soldier because his ration recently empties as but he never expects the noble to blame him saying that he ordered the extortion. Sealing him to any way of retaliation as the emperor closed his ear toward his brother and making him the emperor brother a black sheep in front of his brother. "Is this how you repay me after what I have for to you?!" shouted by the emperor. "No, brother I did not order them an-" cut by his brother. "Silence, guilty or not you are already pointed as the culprit of this incident and I am ashamed to acknowledge you as my brother and I denounce you as my brother and have you strip of rank," said the emperor with disdain and shame. "That's..." unable to say anything back to the emperor. As the young brother was disowned, he could not do anything else even if he has struggled for his defense due to the lack of strength to resist he was carried away. At the front of the camp entrance, he was forced to walk away with his weapon taken from him exchanged with a weaker sword-like bronze-based weapon supposed given by his older brother. The soldier who took his weapon laugh in delight while talking in gibberish as the person grabs it as his weapon, another noble who sees that even said he was a fool they kicked him into the wild. Most of the crowd who see him belong to the noble or the higher class soldier who wish to dispose of the main witness of the entire incident that may become the last chess piece to the empire's destruction. The younger brother who listens to it could only sneer back at them. "You will regret it sooner than later when it comes you will cry forgiveness," as the person leaves the front camp. The soldier who heard it did not listen to it deeply as they laugh saying what he said was hilarious even they say it was a funny joke, with the younger brother gone then no one would interfere with what they will do next. --- Back in Agus camp --- "So is the enemy reinforcement arriving?" said Agus. "No, my lord the Intel we got will arrive in a week," said Jeremy. "Sir, we have completed digging the ditch so even they have tower siege it will take a month or so to take the base," said Ray as he smiles. "Is that so have the siege weapon I requested been produced? at the same time delivered to the base" said Agus as he glances at him in anticipation. "As of the production 30 weapon has been produced while another 90 is still being built and its delivery already on the way to the base as we need another 5 days to complete it entirely sent," said Ray as he salutes intensely. "Good, have 5 of them brought here and sent the messenger 'i want it in here 30-minute max'," As he looks at the enemy camp. "Right away, my lord" as the nearby messenger runs out from the tent. "I know this battle is not that tough but I was expecting it to be one, sigh. I'm sure the enemy has some weak structure so it would be easily toppled just hope the enemy reinforcement has some ability fighting to fight our newly trained men," said Agus in a sad tone. "Tell the soldier to follow the scroll in here which filled with the schedule I made for them, oh and tell every soldier if by chance they do something that would damage to the army. I make sure they suffer it in every aspect they never dream of," as Agus showed the scroll and give it. "Right away, my lord and I will tell them well," as he takes the scroll and walks out. As Jeremy in front of the soldier that in front of the audience, he then shouted what was inside the scroll that was given by Agus from the headquarter tent and then continued the message that was outlined by Agus. Within the scroll were a patrol schedule and newly added policy given by Agus, If there is any chance of skirmish did not happen then any soldier is ordered to find information or they can coerce the enemy soldier to join the Majapahit army. At the same time, the scroll mentioned the resting shift and schedule of their routine added new order to always watch the perimeter to detect an intruder that can be spotted from far away. The soldier then has a mandatory inspection after thirty minutes ensuring no intruder was left scoot-free in the camp either by maneuver and reduce hiding place. Any soldier that is still new in the field or felt a lack of sync in the training regime will be allowed another thirty seconds to perfect their skill. Supervised by a superior officer to add a comment on what they are still lacking at the same time allowed to do friendly spar. Jeremy sees something that would not never expect to achieve more quickly as the enemy quickly mingled with the Majapahit soldier and grab his sword from his waist and point it at the enemy soldier. The enemy soldier shouted that as they wish to defect to the Majapahit, Jeremy had some trust issue with the deserter and wish for them to be separated from other soldiers which led to the new camp section. Few guards were placed in all the new section entrances to ensure there are no problems that may occur later on. "Well since we just defected recently so it's not too surprising but at the very least there is no discrimination between us, deserter, and them," said one of the deserters as he looks at the soldier. "At the very least they are still well organized and still uphold order, unlike the empire which is better," said another deserter who cleans his sword. "Ehm? what it that made you to dessert, anyway," said a nearby soldier. "Well, since we're going join you guys..." as the deserter explains it all. "That's... " the soldier was surprised but no word comes out from his mouth. "You guys are lucky then, Our Lord is still kind enough to let you join us not killing you when you guys wander off camp" Jeremy joins the conversation. "Sir?!" as the men salute followed by the deserter. "That's some news we never expected, but even so you are a deserter for your army any lord would execute you even though you are want to save your own life," said Jeremy. "It... is as you say. we want to serve the emperor and fight for him but..." as the deserter squish his hand in regret. "But no more you are the Malacca soldier this... no longer our concern any longer but our lord so how do we proceed is on his order," said Jeremy as he walks as he followed by a soldier. Both the soldier and the deserter listen to the conversation but they were silent not knowing what to do suddenly then Jeremy walk into the commander's tent, where Agus was still planning before suddenly see Jeremy walk in and telling the situation outside. "My lord, I would like to report about the current incident we are facing with," said supposed Jeremy. Agus who saw him was accompanied by a soldier and deserter who want to know what will happen next as they watch the event occur in front of them then next the noble who is near the noble tent also want to know why the crowd appears in front of them. "Hm? I suppose you guys want me to fill in the detail, perhaps?" as Agus sigh in a tiresome tone. "What I would do next... is quite simple actually" continued as he summarizes his policy for it. He would like to introduce the very first Majapahit foreign company that a mixed army of all kinds of people. They will be filtered into two types of categories which are skilled which is framed as a crime and none skilled but with justified crime felonies such as killing by an accident, stealing for food, and other light crime. After a long period, the supposed soldier of the foreign army will be integrated and rehabilitated. So they could return to work as his subordinate, official soldier, labor worker, merchandise, innovation, research, and so on.
