Chapter 248 Suametzin's Chess Game

At that location, everyone shouted “Huh?” That location was quite far from the two opposing teams. It was only about 500 meters to the north of the current location.

"Zain, do you understand the significance of putting it there?"

"Well, if it's a bad guy, this place won't work."

"Yes. So, let's start with Zane? Captain Legrecian, can you lend us a few horses?"

The next to look confused were Senna and Zayn.

------------------

Ye Kai asked the 20 borrowed cavalry to dismount and lead the horses behind. He himself did not ride Purple, but bent down and moved slowly. The members included Ye Kai, Cham, Tulio, Heinz and other guards knights. Fino stayed near the carriage.

When Zen advanced to the position where the chess piece was placed, Ye Kai asked everyone to stop, and then crawled up the hill. This position was a blind spot when viewed from the flat land in the north of Suamezin. The hill was very high, and looking up from below, nothing could be seen except the outline of the hill.

Perhaps because they had not been specifically told, Chaim, Tulio, and Heinz followed. They kept a low profile and quietly looked toward the side of the flat ground. After a while, they saw a group of about a hundred people rushing out of the forest.

--------------

“Hey, Brother Ye Kai! What’s going on?”

Senna was so shocked by Ye Kai's sudden use of cavalry that she almost cried out.

"I'm sorry, Senna. Your moves were good, but it would be more fun to let Zayn do it this time, right?"

“No, I mean, I don’t understand. Weren’t we playing a game just now?”

"Hmm? No. You'll know when you see it."

After such an exchange, Ye Kai and his party set off. He borrowed the cavalry without hesitation and headed north. That was about fifty minutes ago.

From where Senna and the others were, they could see the situation of Ye Kai and the others. After they finished their operation, they looked in the direction where a large group of people rushed out of the forest.

"Eh? This—!"

"Sister, it's really here..."

The brother and sister were not just surprised, they were speechless.

“Did you notice that?”

Klein asked Fino, and she nodded.

"When Ye Kai used a wide-area scan, he sensed the group hiding in the forest. I have been wondering what action he would take..."

"So here we are. We've been with him for a long time, but his actions are still a little unpredictable. What on earth could he be thinking that would make our kids do something like this?"

"We can't know unless we ask him in person. But I think he might be training in situational judgment..."

"Oh, there's really nothing we can do about it."

Eleanor was the only one who laughed.

----------------

“Did you notice that?”

"Yeah, sure."

Heinz frowned. He was already feeling helpless towards this friend who always did whatever he wanted.

"What should we do? Should we fight back?"

"That's the garrison's job. Didn't you just see the chess piece layout?"

Suametzin also had a garrison sent by Holzlein stationed there. Their mission was to maintain public order in the city and protect it from attacks by the remnants of Treva.

As long as they had enough time to ride past the observation deck, they would rush out of their stronghold and form a team to meet the enemy. They had been trained to do this with ease.

"Once they hit, we have to act too. Prepare, prepare"

"Shouldn't we go back..."

The tall Tulio seemed to be crawling forward with great difficulty. They were ready to retreat in order to launch an attack.

----------------------

The cavalry group emerged from the forest belt and rushed across the plain, trying to raid Suametz, but the trained defense team was ready to go according to plan.

Arrows rained down from the infantry of the defense and from the walls, and some cavalry could be seen standing out. The cavalry also fought back, but the arrows fired from the horseback marching could not hit the target and did no harm. However, during this period, the distance between the two sides had shortened and the two forces collided.

“Hey, they are fighting. Why doesn’t Brother Ye Kai move?”

"Right. What's going on, Zayn?"

"That's good. Wait a little longer."

Klein comforted the anxious Senna and asked Zane, and got a clear answer. Although they could not hear the sound of swords in battle, the dust raised by the horses' hooves showed how fierce the battle was.

“Okay, that’s about it.”

----------------

“Is it about time to start?”

“They’ve fallen into a trap! Attack!”

They rode up the hill and then quickly dismounted and rushed down. The two groups, initially focused on the battle, became confused once they noticed the new force approaching. To the defenders, it seemed as if another army was attacking them.

However, the Farsighted Man, who was watching all this from the lookout on the city wall, used the magic of farsightedness and discovered that the group was wearing the armor of the Holzlein Guard Knights, and shouted that they were allies.

“It’s an ally! Don’t shoot!”

"clear!!"

The archers on the city wall put down their bows at the same time, and the people in the attacking team cheered.

The attackers were confused and didn't know what to do, but it was too late. The troops rushing down the hill passed behind them. In just a moment, seven cavalrymen were cut down.

Then they turned quickly, completely blocking the retreat. When they saw the elegant and neatly-fitted armor worn by the cavalry, the attackers felt pressured. Only the selected elite soldiers could obtain such luxurious equipment. Although there were not many of them, they should not be underestimated.

This brief moment of hesitation was fatal. The attacking team abandoned the defensive deployment and adopted a semi-encirclement posture. In this way, the knights in the rear were completely blocked. The surrounded people could only form a defensive circle and point their swords outward.

Even though the attacking party is attacked, there is no need to fight back. As long as they can resist the enemy's attack, the ally next to them will attack. With this psychological calmness, their reaction will not be wrong, and their advantage will become more and more obvious.

When more than 20 people were wounded and unable to continue fighting, the situation reached a stalemate. Although it had reached a point of no return, the commander still refused to surrender. If he did so, his subordinates would not be able to retreat.
