805 Things going south

Rudra assessed the threat and realised that the most pressing issue right now was the damn chariot heading their way with two very powerful tier 5 creatures onboard. 

What baffled him though was the enemy's response to their attack. Having ships at the ready , an unreasonably strong unit stationed at a small village and the number one commander of the enemy forces at the ready for such a trivial March? 

It did not seem right at all , although it could have been preplanned preventive measure , however Rudra had surveyed the area just 6 hours before the attack and these forces were not present at these locations then , which meant that they were mobilized under the cover of the night just the dawn before the attack was launched , which meant that they had accurate information about the timing of the attack and the exact spot where the attack was going to happen to mount such an impressive defense.
