The betrayal by the court's faction had shaken Arjun, but it also sparked a fire within him.
He knew he needed more than just traditional methods to survive and expand his kingdom.
It was time to begin implementing his own strategies, ones he'd learned in his previous life.
He turned to his royal archives, where he discovered ancient military texts—strategies for guerilla warfare, psychological tactics, and military deception.
This knowledge would be his secret weapon.
Arjun's first act was to recruit a small, elite group of soldiers skilled in stealth and sabotage.
They would disrupt enemy supply lines and create confusion in the ranks of Rajapura's forces.
At the same time, he began fortifying key cities, including the capital, with traps and hidden defenses.
His aim was to turn his perceived weakness into a strength.
