Phillps At the Gates (Part-2)

"Hurry up men! Force march! Your brothers need you!"

In the dead silence of the night, this forceful, slightly irritated shout rang particularly loudly across the wide, open Tibian countryside, as Alexander from atop his horse sounded a bit annoyed.

Upon receiving news of Grahtos, the young pasha had mobilized his army as soon as possible, waking the camp up and putting two thirds of his men on a forced march, wishing to come to his detachment's aid yesterday.

To make the pace even faster, Alexander did not even make the men carry their 30 to 35 kg heavy baggage of supplies, only equipping them in their armor and weapon and perhaps a water pouch for the journey.

All so that he could cover the 20 kilometer journey at the maximum pace possible.

However, despite all that, given the general ambient darkness, as well as the fatigue of the men, the soldiers could only move their legs that fast.
