Chapter 1137: Chapter 315: War, At Last (10,000)

"Viscount Jon Zuck is leading his supporters, the Manor Lords and Viscount Wind Hill Chambers’ soldiers, marching towards Morgan Town."

"The total number of Guards, Peasants, and soldiers is at least over ten thousand."

"They can arrive at this forest before us by tonight at the latest!"

Rose Wesley and Tyrone’s expressions were grave.

Earlier, they had seen Gasper standing beside Lynn.

Rose bent forward, speaking first.

"Master, what do you need Rose to do?"

"We will follow all of your instructions, Master!"

Wesley and Tyrone also bent over and agreed.

"We will follow all of your instructions, Master!"

Lynn pondered for a moment and spoke.

"I need two teams of soldiers skilled at navigating the forest."

"One team will hide at Kakasong City forest entrance, and one team at Morgan Town forest exit."

"Their task is to ignite the tree resin in the forest entrances and exits!"

Lynn asked the three, "Any objections?"

Rose and the others hurriedly bowed their heads to respond.

"Master, no objections whatsoever!"

Lynn pondered again and continued.

"Timing of the ignition is based on my command."

"Once I give the signal to ignite Morgan Town forest exit."

"Soldiers at Kakasong City forest entrance, upon seeing smoke or fire, immediately execute the burning task without error!"

"Make sure to burn Jon Zuck’s entire army in the forest!"

Upon hearing Lynn’s words again, Rose and the others raised their brows.

However.

The change in expression was fleeting, normalcy quickly returned.

Rose bent over and replied again.

"Yes, Master! Rose will make arrangements right away."

Lynn nodded and said, "This is of great importance, I need someone trustworthy as the captain of Kakasong City forest entrance Ignition Team!"

According to Lynn’s plan.

Jon Zuck’s army enters from Kakasong City’s direction into this forest.

They progress deeper into the forest, until about to reach Morgan Town forest exit.

The fire pile arranged by him has already ignited the forest exit.

With tree resin aiding the burn, the fire spreads quickly.

Jon Zuck is sure to turn his army around, either retreating or returning to Kakasong City.

If there is no trustworthy person to immediately ignite the entrance’s fire.

Then Jon Zuck’s army could escape unscathed...

All preparations made for the forest fire ambush would go to waste.

Not only this.

Jon Zuck would certainly be more vigilant because of this.

Attempting another forest fire plan would be impossible to accomplish!

Thus the comparison shows the weight of the task for Kakasong City forest entrance Ignition Team.

"Lord, Early is willing to lead the team forward!"

A loud and strong voice erupted from Early’s mouth.

Lynn and Rose turned their attention to Early.

Even under Lynn’s gaze, Early did not lower his head.

His light brown eyes were firm, staring straight at Lynn, awaiting Lynn’s response.

Lynn did not respond immediately but posed a question.

"Tell me your reason."

Early didn’t hesitate and responded immediately.

"Lord Rose needs to lead the cavalry, Lord Wesley must command the Archers, Commander Tyrone will lead the Pan Rock Iron Guard and infantry..."

"Only Early is left idle."

"Moreover, Early considers himself one of the most trustworthy underlings of our Lord!"

Lynn praised him, "Very well!"

"You shall lead a team to Kakasong City forest entrance immediately."

"There is one thing I need to instruct you on now."

"Even if you die, you must ignite the forest entrance upon seeing smoke or flames from Morgan Town forest!"

"Do you understand?"

Early responded solemnly and loudly.

"Early understands!"

"Even if I die, I will ignite the forest entrance!"

Lynn said gravely, "You may now select ten soldiers to depart."

Early responded once more.

"Understood!"

With his response, Early turned and headed towards the soldiers behind.

After picking out ten familiar soldiers.

Early led them, riding horses, into the forest.

Until finally, they disappeared under the sun-shielding canopy.

Lynn focused on Rose, continuing to speak.

"Apart from arranging soldiers for the ignition task."

"Heavy cavalry, light cavalry, heavy infantry, and all soldiers, guard fiercely at Morgan Town forest exit."

"If any Guard or Peasant escapes the forest, annihilate them immediately!"

Rose and the others raised their brows and responded hurriedly.

"Yes, Master!"

Lynn pondered again, gazing at the distant forest.

As the sky grew darker.

The mountains flanking the forest started to obscure the setting sun.

The extensive forest immersed in the shadow behind the mountains.

Adding more mystery to the already profound forest.

Perhaps due to Early and the cavalry entering the forest.

Galloping horses startled the wildlife within the forest, causing flocks to fly.

Rustle~ Rustle~

Listening to the flapping overhead.

Riding on horseback, Early remained focused, his gaze fixed on the slightly dim road ahead.

In Early’s mind, Lynn’s instructions reverberated continuously.

Even in death, ignite the forest entrance towards Kakasong City!

Early turned and shouted to the ten cavalry behind him.

"Speed up as much as possible."

"The sky is darkening, we must reach the forest entrance before Jon Zuck’s army arrives."

"If we encounter them, it will be too late."

"Failure to complete our Lord’s command will result in certain death for us!"

A loud and strong voice emerged from the mouth of Early’s ten armored soldiers.

"Yes, Lord Early!"

Early nodded with satisfaction, tightly gripped the reins, and spurred them again.

Ha~

Ha~

Ha~

Early and the soldiers all spurred their horses for further speed!

With complete darkness setting in, the forest would be enveloped in darkness.

It would affect their march speed, though that’s a secondary concern.

The real worry is if they reach the forest entrance at the same time as Jon Zuck’s army!

Early leading ten armored cavalry pressed on without ceasing.

The sky turned ever dimmer.

Early could hardly make out the road ahead.

When the horses turned a corner in front of them.

Early’s view broadened instantly!

A vast farmland drenched in golden sunlight entered Early’s sight.

Early felt slightly relieved.

Despite the rush, they reached the forest entrance before Jon Zuck’s army.

Early’s gaze shifted.

In the next moment.

Early’s eyes widened, filled with shock.

A snake-like army is marching through the expansive farmland towards their forest!

Early exclaimed in disbelief, "That is..."
