The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 719

At this moment, Byron was still immersed in his own happiness.

He was still thinking that his troops might've already annihilated Caspian's forces.

He had been waiting for news all this while.

As long as Byron could destroy Caspian, he could build his reputation and solidify his position.

By then, Filren could also sound the horn of a counter-attack.

They might even seize the opportunity to take down Diatoran!

However, despite waiting anxiously, he hadn't received any news from Death Mountain Prison.

In the end, he couldn't wait any longer and immediately made a call to inquire about the situation.

"How's the situation on your end?" Byron asked.

The one who answered the phone was the commander of the 200 thousand soldiers sent as reinforcements.

"Your Majesty, we haven't even reached Death Mountain Prison. We were ambushed halfway!" the commander replied.

"What? You were ambushed?" Byron was astonished.

"Yes. We're currently fighting back with all our might," the commander answered.

"How could they know that we had sent reinforcements? Could it be that Caspian is really that extraordinary? And how's the situation at the prison?" Byron asked with a trembling heart.

"I don't know either. Right now, everything is chaotic on our end, and we have no time to focus on the situation at the prison," the commander said somewhat resentfully.

He never had much confidence in the new King of Filren. He had no talent for leading troops in battle; he was just giving random orders.

"Regardless, you must eliminate Diatoran's troops at all costs. I'll immediately inquire about the situation at the prison," Byron said before hanging up the phone.

He then dialed the number for Death Mountain Prison.

However, after dialing for a long time, he couldn't get through at all.

At this moment, Byron began to feel afraid as he had a foreboding feeling.

Death Mountain Prison was already in a precarious situation. Without reinforcements, they would surely be defeated soon.

Now that he couldn't even get through to them on the phone, there was only one possibility—the prison had already fallen.

Byron suddenly panicked when he thought about the little over 100 thousand troops and how Caspian's forces were nowhere to be found.

He felt that with Caspian's character, it was very likely that he would lead his troops to attack them.

Just as he was about to call the commander of the 200 thousand soldiers who were sent to reinforce the prison to instruct them to return and defend, an urgent call came in.

"Hello, what's the matter?" Byron asked.

"Your Majesty, bad news. Caspian is leading the armored battalion and has arrived near the capital!" the officer in charge of defending the city said anxiously.

"What? How could Caspian arrive so quickly!" Byron was trembling with fear.

"I don't know, but I can assure you that it's Caspian's troops. I've already seen the insignias of the armored battalion. There's no mistake," the officer replied.

"Organize the troops immediately and stop Caspian! We must defend the capital!" Byron was in a panic.

"We only have a little over 100 thousand troops. How can we deal with the God of War?" The officer was not confident in battling it out with Caspian.

"The capital is as solid as a fortress. Caspian won't be able to break in so easily. Moreover, there are only a few armored soldiers. There's nothing to fear!" Byron pretended to be calm.

"Your Majesty, I think to ensure nothing goes wrong, it's better to have those reinforcements return to defend quickly!" the officer suggested.
