The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 716

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.

Seeing the prison already in ruins from the bombardment, Caspian waved his hand and shouted, "Charge in!"

He had long anticipated that Byron would send reinforcements, so he aimed to rescue Macy in the shortest time possible.

Upon his command, Sylvia led the armored battalion and charged forward. There were tanks at the forefront, followed closely by numerous soldiers.

The prison guards were powerless against them.

The prison officer was astonished to see his subordinates falter against Caspian's assault.

In less than ten minutes, Caspian's forces were already on the verge of entering the prison. With the current situation, they couldn't hold on much longer.

Terrified, the officer hurriedly reported the situation to the higher-ups once again.

However, they informed him that reinforcements were on their way but would take some time and urged him to hold out as long as possible.

If he failed to hold out, he would be punished with the death penalty!

The prison officer also knew that reinforcements wouldn't arrive anytime soon. The only option now was to continue holding the line.

The internal structure of the prison was complex, but if they could utilize the terrain well, they could definitely delay Caspian for some time.

Once the armored battalion entered the prison gates, they halted and ceased using cannons.

Otherwise, if the prison was bombed and Macy was killed inside, it would be a tragedy.

"Charge in and rescue our hero, Macy!" Caspian ordered again.

Upon hearing the command, the armored battalion and Phoenix Vanguard immediately jumped off their vehicles. They launched their attack.

The members of Phoenix Vanguard were full of vigor this time as they were determined to rescue their captain.

There were about 100 thousand armored soldiers, and not all of them entered the prison. Most of them remained outside to continue standing guard.

Caspian and Sylvia simply led the charge inside.

Coco had previously provided Caspian with the internal layout of the prison, so they were familiar with its structure.

This kind of attack was extremely advantageous for them.
