Chapter 437 - Arriving In The City Of Inis

While the army was resting in the swamps, Einar looked at the map he had made with Dreide.

It showed the city of Inis, the capital of Ennis County where they were about 10 hours away. While he looked at him, he felt a snowflake on his face.

So he looked up at the dark sky and just smiled. "I guess conquering the swamp area will be much faster than he thought.

I just hope that my children are having a good time in the imperial palace. I think they should not be missing anything except for a letter. "

Einar put the map away and quickly pulled out a notebook to begin writing a letter to his wives and children.

'If my calculations are correct, my letter will arrive in December. I would like to send a gift but I think asking about them should be enough.

I really miss technology. '

The following day the army put on its woolen cloth coats and special snow boots before setting out on its way to the city of Inis.

The road was quite calm because I do not know they encountered any kind of enemy.

"It's quite impressive that the stupid prince doesn't have guards. What do you think of that, Einar?"

Einar who was on his horse turned his head and looked at Dreide. "I think he is confident that my army will not attack him in winter.

If it were a normal army, I wouldn't be able to attack in winter, but my army is prepared to face any kind of weather.

In addition, swamps in winter lose their defensive value as the water freezes, making it easier to attack. "

Dreide looked at Einar with a smile. "You are a very prepared man. I think you will be a perfect husband, but you are sure you want to wait 5 years to be able to marry me.

You don't think that I will grow old and my body will be less pleasant. "

Einar looked at her seriously. "I have no problems with that, because I believe that the beauty of a woman is subjective. When one man loves a woman for him, she will be perfect.

If you get older, you will simply be more beautiful because you will have matured. I also consider that it could be beneficial for you because you will meet my family.

At that moment, you will know what kind of person I am. I may have been a bit impulsive before, but at this moment I am sure of what I want and where I want to go.

I really don't want a new relationship until I can avenge Kassia. When my revenge is complete, I will be able to finish this stage of my life and focus on my family and conquering a new place. "

Dreide looked curiously at Einar. "Is that place you're talking about cold?"

Einar only raised his hands. "It is quite difficult to explain, because some parts will be cold, but later we will find areas that are much warmer and more pleasant to live in.

Either way, in the future you are going to understand what I am talking about, just for the moment you have to learn how to be a leader.

Being a warrior can help you, but that will only work if you are facing a single enemy. When you have to face a group of enemies, then you will realize that being a warrior is not enough.

You have to learn to lead the troops and be able to think coldly, come to the moment when you have to choose between saving a person important to you or killing hundreds to save thousands.

That means being a leader, being able to make the decisions that are needed for a common good. "

Dreide sighed and patted his black-spotted horse "You're quite amazing, but now that I think about it, what method would you use to conquer the city."

Einar smiled and pointed at his catapults and his soldiers. "I will launch Nordic fire so I can finish them off although we could also use a completely new strategy."

Before reaching the city, the army stopped, and Einar prepared his plan to enter the city.

For this he will use his special forces, as they needed to train to improve.

The army special forces group was made up of 100 soldiers trained by Einar. They received the same training that he had received in the army along with some extra training.

After gathering all the special forces soldiers, I look at them seriously.

"Today, we will enter the city in complete silence. For this, you must open a city gate, without attracting attention.

It is a wall of only 5 meters, so they will use hooks to climb the walls. The snipers will use their Nordic carbines to attack from a distance.

So you can climb the walls without problems. Remember what you must use your repeating crossbows to be able to finish off the enemies that are in your way.

They will attack in the early morning when enemy soldiers are at their weakest, according to the information we have.

The door through which we will enter belongs to the marginal neighborhoods, so there will not be a considerable defense because they will not take care of a place that does not generate any kind of resources.

When they open the door, the army will enter so they must clean all the enemies from the wall, in order to prevent them from escaping the city.

The army, for its part will clean all the enemies. When we finish, I want them to enter the castle wall. I do not want mistakes.

You are the Elite troops of the Nordic army; you are personally trained by me; you know how to use knives or how they can be thrown.

In case they fail to take the city gate, they must leave that place for a traditional siege to take place.

Just remember that if you fail, I will have you train with double strength, so you will do dangerous work until you can perfect your techniques.

It's clear what I said. "

All the special forces soldiers made a military salute, so Einar looked at them seriously. "Prepare your things that today you will stop being virgins and will do your first mission as the Nordic special forces."

The soldiers looked seriously at Einar and walked away, as they had to pack their things so they could be ready for the night.

When he got dark, the soldiers put on special uniforms, as well as drawing a green and black camouflage on their faces.

Having everything ready, Einar supervised that the snipers were in position and that their carbines had a cushion to muffle the noise of the shot.

Although it was a simple solution, it worked perfectly.
