- - Visigoth Kingdom POV - -
Visigoth's 130,000-strong army was marching towards Voltaire Castle.
Duke Fran had ordered his cavalry to march at the sa speed, without dividing them.
The scouting party he had sent was returning to the main army, which was marching.
"You're saying Julius has left?"
"Yes. When Aquitania's troops t up with him at Voltaire Castle, he led the Iron Cavalry out of the castle."
Duke Fran furrowed his brow at the news.
Why had they suddenly left?
It was also strange to hear that a large force had moved from Aquitania.
It ant that he had vacated Aquitania.
An army of this size must be all of their forces and levies at once.
What was his plan?
Duke Fran unfolded the map.
He would have so troops left to defend Aquitania, but this would make it extrely easy for them to attack Aquitania.
Are you saying we should fight at Voltaire Castle?
What exactly is your goal?
It was easy to isolate Voltaire Castle.
If he surrounded it with a 130,000-strong army, the castle would be too low to hold for two days.
Istin, Lucana, Lamp, and the other generals, Valdesca's vassals, and the nobles of Visigoth who had joined the war faced each other.
Duke Fran's face beca serious as he began to worry.
"Supre General, do you want to organize a pursuit party?"
Lamp posed a question but Fran shook his head.
"No, we will march as planned. The sooner we get to Castle Voltaire, the better."
It looked like they were trying to break our morale with a surprise attack or to cut off supplies.
But since they had captured Lunan Castle, there was no supply problem.
It was really foolish for Julius to go cutting off supply with that many troops.
It would only an that he would have to sacrifice the main force of Voltaire Castle to himself.
Of course, that would never happen.
So the only thing he could think of was a surprise attack.
However, what was completely unexpected was why he was holding out in Voltaire Castle.
Whether it was Voltaire Castle or Aquitania Castle, it didn't matter where the battlefield was because the plan was to isolate and defeat them, but it was frustrating to not understand why he was fighting in that lowly Voltaire Castle.
"I'm not going to give Lunan's army in the Bridget area ti to enter the war. Even if reinforcents co, our army has more troops than his, but we don't need to waste our troops on him, so we're going to have a quick battle."
According to his information, there are about 50,000 troops in the Bridget area.
Moreover, the mont the entire army arrives, Lunan will lose control of Bridget.
It ans that they will be divided on all sides, and all of Lunan and Bridget's territories will be ownerless.
In any case, the overwhelming advantage was Fran's.
Furthermore, he had no intention of allowing Julius to join up with Bridget's reinforcents.
He had prepared a strategy that could be imdiately used to finish the battle at Aquitania!
"It's best to surround and destroy them."
