The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 716 Holding the Line

After making the arrangements, Byron felt quite pleased with himself.

“Caspian, they say you’re an invincible God of War. I wanted to see just how terrifying you are. Who would’ve thought you’d be so arrogant? You brought this upon yourself, so don’t blame me for being ruthless!” he muttered to himself.

Ever since the attack began, the Filrenian forces had been consistently losing, which made Byron extremely frustrated.

He knew that if things continued like this, he would soon be ousted from power.

Just when he was at a loss, Caspian provided him with a perfect opportunity.

He felt that if he could eliminate Caspian, it would surely sow chaos among Diatoran’s troops. That would give him the chance to lead a strong counter- attack.

Hence, this was an extremely rare opportunity.

Byron ordered half of the soldiers in the capital to eliminate Caspian.

In his view, Caspian’s solo infiltration for the sake of rescuing a woman was just plain foolish.

What general would endanger himself to save a subordinate?

Upon receiving the orders from Byron, the soldiers of Filren’s capital

immediately headed out, ready to coordinate with their comrades at the prison to besiege Caspian.

The garrison of the capital numbered about 600 thousand, with half of them previously dispatched to fend off the Diatoranian forces.

Now, nearly 200 thousand were sent to eliminate Caspian, leaving only about 100 thousand defenders in the capital.

At Death Mountain Prison, the prison officer led his subordinates to confront Caspian’s forces.

However, these prison guards were no match for the armored battalion.

Caspian even dispatched his trusted confidant, Sylvia, to command the battle.

Despite the prison’s defensible position, they still struggled against the ferocious assault from Diatoran.
