There is no difficult situation without a solution.The king must braze up and stick to his decision.Here is the question.What will happen if the king marry another woman and she doesn't bear a male child.Even if she did give a male child will he lead them to that battle at a tender age?The action of the elders show their rebellion to the king.Since he is the king,he either exercise his power or declare them as rebellious to his authority.In another angle, let the king give his daughter best military training to shame the elders,also he should mandate the children of the elders to join his daughter during the battle.This is a good fiction @steve1122

This is very true @steepup well being the writer I sense or I think that the king should stand his ground and make a choice that will speak well for him like you have said but let us put in mind that he is forced to chose either the safety of the village or that of his family.
I do love you comment @steepup it is indeed creative.
