Chapter 20. Border war part 8.

In the morning every battle front was moving busily. Everyone knew that this day will most likely decide how will win this war. Commander Henrik is heading to the tar boulder. It was quite obvious that enemy is there since so much smoke came from there. Of course there is a change it to be a trap. Unfortunately they don´t have time to make sure that enemy is there.

Count Ben was looking for any signs from Henrik so he could start to act. But to his suprise enemy force did something he didn´t expect at all. Albert Rowan´s soldiers and king August Scorpioheart started to move by the river line to the north.

”Why did they move out from their defensive fortress? This doesn´t make any sense. Why would they move out? This could be perfect change to attack them.”

Count Ben have thought of many different situations but this wasn´t one of them. He have thought they might leave this place but they would have moved by secret. This kind of movement can not be not noticed. They are completely open.

When soldiers saw this sight there was automatically thought; this is a trap, but what if this isn´t a trap. There is only 200 soldiers, but those soldiers have surrived this whole war so far without any men losses. 100 of those soldiers are kingdoms royal guard knight soldiers and other 100 soldiers are from here.

Our purpose was to make these men to come to our country. We thought those men were completely useless except in tar yielding. How could this happen to us?

”Let´s move out. At least we don´t have to worry which way we should go. Let´s follow them by our side the river.”

And so everyone started to move. Everyone took their attention to the king August how was leading soldier forward.

Commander Henrik was approaching to the river. He wanted to meet the rest of the army, but to his suprise he saw enemy moving out from the hill. He had no idea how this was happening but this was a change. He didn´t hesitate. ”Charge forward!”

No one else were aware of this fact so this order came as suprise, but everyone were happy to hear this order. At least they could rest soon no matter what happens.

Unlike last time they saw the enemy in front of them.Also there was no signs for suprise attack since there isn´t any cover where enemy could hide. Even more importantly they heard their army´s war horn sound which means count Ben is right in front of them.

”Chase them! We will over take them soon.”

Tetrao village citizen were left in top of the tar boulder. Enemy had no idea they left perfect hostages behind them. It wasn´t most optimal plan to make both armies chase them to the north, but this way there wouldn´t be any change to sivilian massacre.

Since people from Tetrao village are well known their home land. They could manage to take every boat from village and bring them to the third river. Everyone knew exactly the path. It was in fact the same path which Sepro and Herman took when this war started. Of course this time 200 soldiers traveled the same path as them.

”I had no idea we would go by this same path two days later. Did you have Herman?”

”Of course I didn´t. How could I know something like this would happen?”

”True enough. But hopefully everything goes right. So I can find two missing soldiers as soon as possible. I have promise to make.”

A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.

”Did something happen? You look more happy than before the war Sepro.”

”Actually I made an important promise with one soldier. I´m looking forward to it. But for now we must consentrate fully to this.”

”Be quiet. Let´s keep moving. We must get to the crossing point before enemy does.” Said by Albert from close by.

Although two parts of the army have only known each other just two says. They have come together perfectly. No one is questioning viscount Rowan´s orders. It is almost like they have always been together. Everyone knew the plan and were convident this is going to work. At least if they would have attacked, they would have fallen for this trap.

Soon everything was ready for crossing the second river. Second river was filled of rapids. Because of that below of one rapid there was shallow path. If people with armor would try to cross it then it would take time. But this time there wasn´t any people with armor. Thanks to it people without armor could easily cross it.

It was almost as if speed didn´t drop even a little bit. ”Are you ready for action?”

”Ohh!”

”Of course you are, but wait a little longer. Soon it is a time to act.”

By Rowan´s order soldiers traveled the short path which was previously taken by Sepro and Herman while carrying canoe with them just two days ago. After no time they saw backwater filled with massive amount of boats.

”Hurry up! We are lossing them.”

Commander Henrik was chasing king with all his men. He already saw enemy going across the river and they vanished into the forest. Unfortunately for them they could over take them since river was too deep with the armor.

By the time they came other side the river. They saw count Ben. They have finally meet each other again. ”You sem to be in a hurry. Should I help you?” Even in this kind of situation count could tell a joke.

”Of course you can. We just saw them going into the forrest.”

”What are you waiting for. Go after them.”

When this war started everyone wanted to take Tetrao village into their control together. In this moment all soldiers from Saisagus country became one once again. Also they were closer to the Tetrao village than the enemy and now enemy is running towards their country. It could be said that they unknowingly took their victory without ever knowing about it.

Currently they were fighting in Saisagus country. Also Polgon kingdom´s king were in their lands. Because of that king August Scorpioheart was second king after the first king how crossed the border. August had unknowingly become second king how became conqueror in his kingdom.

No one had any idea in Polgon kingdom that their king had just become conqueror. It was unheard of before. In future generations this day marked a mark to this world first world war which took base many years later. But the first seed was birth that day to the world.

Althought this war was called bolder war. Many people thought that more fitting name would have been birth of war gods war.

Hurriedly all men started to follow the path which was made by enemy soldiers. To their suprise. They saw backwater filled with boats and no soldiers anywhere to see.

”Enemy is escaping by water. Hurry up and follow them!”

There was no time to think why there was so many boats left. Logically there was no change enemy would have left so many boats behind. Otherwise they could follow them hurriedly.

After the first people got into the river. They saw some enemy boat going down-stream. Enemy would have been seen if they would have gone north. So only option was south. ”Enemy is south from us.”

”Follow them. We can´t loss them now.”

It took quite some time to everyone to get in the boat. But soon chase became to start. To their suprise enemy had also problems with their boats. Some were left behind.

”I don´t know should I be happy or sad. People here are using boats every day. How could they make this kind of mistake in the moment like this? At least we know were is the right parh.

Soon they came across two streams. Boats how were left behind choosed to go right path. Of course they followed behind them. Everyone started to rowing and paddle. They speed started to rise. No one expected that this was huge mistake. Soon they knew why those few boats were left behind. They saw waterfall.
