Chapter 562

Ghislain immediately issued new instructions to the allied commanders.

“We’ll split our forces as well. However, we won’t chase after the enemy. Instead, we’ll focus on securing key strongholds and encircle the area broadly.”

The commanders looked uneasy, biting their lips.

It was clear that the enemy was targeting their supply lines. Dividing their forces to intercept made sense, but the allied army's strength lay in its overwhelming numbers. Splitting up would mean giving up that advantage.
