You order the horsemen to strike the enemy flank.
7!*
While you can only watch the lines in the front, a sudden sound causes the enemy lines to break. The horn of retreat! Your soldiers chase down the routing Gonians as their main banner disappears from your sight.
A while later, as the battle nears conclusion, the horsemen return, shouting and cheering while a flushed youth rides forth to you. He tosses a bloodied orb and a metal cricle under your feet.
It's the head of the King of Gon, along with his bloodstained crown!
"Wonderful news, my liege!" Shouts the cavalry commander while his officers surround the young man. "This youth by name Galhad has broke through the inner circle of the King of Gon and struck him down! Seeing that, his commanders fled and general rout has been sounded!!"
You quickly proclaim that the young, brave Galhad will be ennobled and given a castle and a village to provide for his family (he will serve as your vassal, of course).
As the armymen tend to their wounds and those who can celebrate the victory with copious amounts of wine and ale, your commanders gather for a council.
"The King of Gon is dead. His kingdom is in ruin. What stops us from offering peace and protection to the local landlords?" One of them says.
"Peace? Bah! We should move north and west and force entirety of Gon to submit to our great king Velarien! Suredly the Gonians cannot have more than militia and city guards to send against us!" Another confidently proclaims.
"We've lost more men in this battle than in whole campaign. Our goals have been fulfilled; our territories expanded. We ought not to overextend ourselves, lest we bite more than we can chew - one stroke of bad luck could deprive us of all our gains!" A third one interjects, and the commanders yell their arguments over themselves.
Ultimately, you have to decide what is to become of this campaign.
A) It's over! We defeated the Gonians and captured what lands we wanted, and even more. Let us not tempt fate any more!
B) Let us send news of this victory far and wide; and invite reluctant or opportunistic lords and city mayors to bend the knee to me!
C) We could conquer the whole Kingdom in one campaign, let's gooooooo!!
