Let's start over, Your Majesty.

Chapter 39 The Battle of Kindergarten (Part 2)
"Ugh, this is so annoying, I don't want to compete!"

"That's right, if you lose, you won't even have anywhere to play anymore."

"Forget it, why don't we give up and talk to them? Maybe we can avoid any losses that way."

During the preparation phase, many children started to back out.

Do you really think that retreating and giving up will bring you so-called peace?

Caesar filled the water gun with water and said in a calm voice.

All eyes turned to him.

He stood at the top of the climbing frame, looked down at the innocent faces of the sixty or so children in the two classes, and said in a deep voice:
"Negotiation? I don't know if you all remember how many times those two classes, taking advantage of being a year older than us, acted recklessly and arrogantly on our field? Do you intend to keep tolerating this forever?!"

"Maven, last time they stole your toy car, and you played with it all afternoon before they gave it back, right?"

"Rosie, they also took over your spot before, and they even pushed you to the ground in a very unreasonable way?"

"Kels, last time they got your clothes dirty, your mother beat you for it too?"

"And every single time, they always manage to get there first, take the toys, occupy the space, and take the picture books. Do you really think all of this can be resolved through negotiation?!"

"This is aggression! This is expansion!"

After his words, the entire room fell silent, and many people secretly tightened their grip on their water guns.

"Did our past tolerance make them stop? No, it only resulted in more ruthless plundering! Toys, land, snacks—one day, they will take everything from us! Including our dignity!"

"When a tiger has its jaws on your head, no amount of negotiation will work! Only the victor has the right to speak! Only the victor has the right to stand on this land!"

"All we can do is take up arms! Defend our rights, take up arms, defend our honor! Drive those arrogant invaders out of this land, and tell them they've messed with the wrong people! From now on, they'll have to tuck their tails between their legs when they see us! Make them pay the price for their past words and deeds!"

"Oh oh oh!!!"

The morale was immediately boosted, and all the children raised their water guns, shouting loudly.

"Why is there such a loud commotion all of a sudden?"

Cecily looked out of her office with a puzzled expression and found that the children had split into two groups on the field and were gathered together doing something.

“They’re at the age where they should be causing trouble right now,” sighed Ms. Qiu Sha, who was standing nearby.

“Yeah, let them play. I really envy their innocent and carefree age,” Cecily said.

"Storm crew! Take over the flowerbed immediately!"

"Groups one and two, flank them from the grove! Attack their left flank!"

"Five groups provide cover, six groups attack. We must seize the slide high ground before they do!"

As the whistle blew, both sides launched their attacks, each taking control of key targets within the area, and firefights broke out at several locations.

"Hmph, these little guys are no match for us at all."

Mana climbed a tree and watched the battle unfolding on the field, chuckling to himself.

Although the opposing team had about ten more members, the children in Class 1 and Class 2 were generally a year younger than those in Class 3 and Class 4. This one-year age difference created a significant gap in physical development, resulting in Caesar's side losing a large number of members in the initial engagement, thus negating their numerical advantage.

Moreover, in terms of geographical advantage, Mana's side had the toilets right behind them, ensuring a steady supply of ammunition, while Caesar's side had to run to the water tap by the flower bed outside the wall to resupply ammunition. Once they advanced the front line, their supplies would definitely not be able to keep up.

"The advantage is on my side." Mana was full of confidence. This time he was sure to see that guy's defeat. Just thinking about it made him happy.

"Attack! Keep pushing, don't let a single one escape! I want to capture Caesar alive!"

Under the fierce offensive of Class 3 and Class 4, Class 1 and Class 2 lost several strategic locations, and even the flower bed they had occupied at the beginning was about to be lost.

But just then, someone sent a report from under the tree:
"Commander! Slide Hill has fallen! All defenders have been wiped out!"

"what?"

Mana couldn't believe it. The troops defending the slide were all elite soldiers. How could it have fallen so quickly?

He quickly looked towards the sandpit and was surprised to find that on the slide platform, there was a cardboard box that had been reinforced with multiple layers of steel. Several small holes were cut into the cardboard box, which served as gun barrels pointing outwards to continuously output firepower, making it impossible for the attacking troops below to get close.

"What a joke! They actually have tanks!" Mana exclaimed in exasperation.

Under the onslaught of the cardboard tanks, the lines that had been breached by the first and second squads were quickly pushed back.

Caesar, watching from the opposite side, saw himself being pushed back to the front lines and a smile crept onto his face.

"Technological capability is also an important factor in determining the course of war."

Mana forgot that although they were far from the ammunition supply point, they were guarding a storage room that contained quite a few cardboard boxes.

The logistics units are now operating at full capacity, and a massive steel torrent is advancing towards the battlefield.

"But don't forget we have a secret weapon!"

Hunter from Class 4 waved his hand, and several children pushed up a whole basin of round, bulging balloons filled with water. One of the strongest boys lifted one up and threw it at the cardboard tank on the slide.

puff.

The bursting water balloon caused the tank to stagger, and at the same time, a corner of the cardboard box was soaked and ruined.

"Frontline troops retreat! Artillery salvo!"

Water balloons were launched one after another, bombarding the battlefield. These water-filled balloons were so powerful that even tanks could not withstand them, and they were all destroyed.

"Great! The pocket money spent on the balloons was definitely worth it!"

Mana and Hunter gave each other a high five.

Caesar looked at his heavily damaged and decimated troops with a grim expression.

"That's the only way."

Mana, who was directing his troops to retake the stronghold, discovered that a small enemy force was flanking them from the grove, attempting to attack their main force from the side.

"Wishful thinking! Open fire!" he shouted immediately. The troops around him were all moved to meet the enemy, and they quickly routed them.

But just as the firefight was taking place, a figure suddenly appeared from the other side, leaped up, wielding two pistols, and instantly took down two guards nearby. With a swift movement, he struck two more men who came to his aid.

"what?"

Mana discovered that the one who had single-handedly stormed into the enemy camp was actually Ita!

As a dragon, Ita's physical abilities are on a completely different level from theirs. Although the troops sent to defend her have been recalled, they can no longer stop her.

Ita, holding the guns in both hands, leaped onto a tree branch to avoid the line of fire and raised the water gun at Mana and Hunter.

That's right, her mission was to behead someone.

"It happened!"

Mana looked at the gun pointed at him, and despair filled his heart.

However, when Ita pulled the trigger, not a single drop of water came out.

"Ah!" she shouted, shaking the water gun in her hand and looking towards Caesar in the distance.
"Commander! My water gun is leaking!"

"This idiot." Caesar covered his face, unable to bear the sight.

"Aha! Fire!" Mana immediately seized the opportunity, and all the surrounding firepower was fired at Ita, knocking her off the tree branch.

Ita was killed.

The battle lines have now shifted in Mana's favor. Caesar's remaining forces are few in number, and his armored units have been forced to stay indoors by the water bombs.

Despite the current situation, he is still concentrating all his forces in an attempt to retake Slide Hill.

"Commander! We've suffered heavy casualties at the front. Groups 1 and 2 have been completely wiped out, and we still can't get the slide down!" Someone ran in, soaking wet, to report.

"I don't want casualty reports! I just want the slide! We must seize the slide before 3 o'clock! Otherwise, we'll be court-martialed!" Caesar shouted.

However, the slide was guarded by two of the strongest boys, who kept throwing water balloons down, making it impossible to get close.

"Damn it." Caesar frowned as he looked at the battle situation before him.

"Caesar!"

Chopper, who was not far away, suddenly shouted at him. Caesar looked over and saw that Chopper had a bucket of water on his head.

Chopper, what are you doing?!

"You wanted a slide? Here you go!" Chopper shouted at the top of his lungs, lifting the bucket and rushing towards the top of the slide.

"Go back and tell my mom! I'm not a coward! Aaaaaah!"

Chopper charged forward and splashed a bucket of water all over them. The defending troops above weren't paying attention and got soaked.

"The kingdom will remember you." Caesar solemnly looked in Chopper's direction.

Chopper's charge ignited the remaining troops, who rushed upwards, defeated the remaining enemies, and captured the slide.

"Hmph, what's the use of occupying it temporarily? I can take it back right away," Mana sneered.

They regrouped all their troops and launched an attack on the slide, while the defending forces above continued to put up a stubborn resistance.

But this was all the troops both sides had, and they were all concentrated around the small slide, resulting in huge casualties on both sides.

However, judging from the numbers, it was clear that Caesar's side was about to collapse, and the remaining troops were about to be wiped out.

But just then, a cry of alarm rang out:
"Look up there!"

Everyone's eyes were drawn to the top of the slide. Directly above the slide was the roof of the kindergarten classrooms, where a water tank about half a person's height stood—the kindergarten's water storage tank.

At this moment, the lid of the water tank was opened, and Caesar's figure stood beside the water tank.

"What is he doing there? No!" Mana's expression changed immediately. He saw that behind the bucket, two children were pushing it down with all their might.

Mana then understood Caesar's intention in desperately trying to take the slide. Directly above the slide was a large water barrel, and he wanted to gather all the forces of both sides there to flood the army!

“You, you’ll be court-martialed for doing this!” Mana shouted.

“Military tribunals? Those are for the defeated,” Caesar said with a sneer.

The buckets tipped over, instantly drenching the troops who were gathering below. The water splashed everywhere, and the troops of the third and fourth squads were almost completely wiped out.

"Counterattack!"

The whistle blew, signaling the start of the counterattack. Caesar's remaining troops immediately launched a desperate counterattack, wiping out the remaining forces, who were already in complete disarray.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Hunter and Mana had no choice but to announce their unconditional surrender.

They hugged each other, cheered, and celebrated the end of the war.

Snapped.

Mana, soaking wet, was brought before Caesar.

Looking at Caesar, who was staring coldly at him, he trembled and immediately shouted, "I, I demand prisoner-of-war treatment!"

“Excuse me, but according to the laws of war, a Class A war criminal like you is to be executed by firing squad,” Caesar said with a sneer.

He raised the gun, shoved the muzzle directly into Mana's mouth, and fired.

Mana's eyes widened, and he immediately fell to the ground, screaming and rolling around.

"Aaaaaah! Caesar, you bastard, you put chili peppers in the water gun! It's killing me with spiciness!!"

After the war ended, representatives from both sides signed the "Sandpit Agreement," ceding the original grounds of Class 3 and Class 4, and handing over two boxes of toys and picture books, as well as daily snacks for the next month, as war reparations.

Thus, the Battle of Kindergarten ended with the victory of Class 1 and Class 2.

In addition, when Cecily returned home in the evening and saw the broken water tank on the roof, she felt like the sky was falling.
As expected, Caesar, Mana, and others were also summoned by their parents.
