Siege Of Caira (Part-2)

Lord Parker had of course spotted Alexander's slow lumbering army marching towards him at that snail's pace from tens of miles away.

The scouts he sent quickly returned to inform him of the numbers- around 25,000 to 30,000 when including men and servants.

"Hmmp! Those ungrateful northern traitors. They dare stand against us?"

Hearing Alexander suddenly go from 5,000 to 30,000, Lord Parker at first snorted contemptuously as such in rage and anger.

He of course assumed this was a collision between Alexander and the Margraves nobles there. 

The fact that Alexander could call for reinforcements had not even occurred to him, just like Alexander was still oblivious to Lord Parker's own plea for help.

As for the presence of the northern, it was doubtful Lord Parker even knew they existed. Their current presence in the southern parts of the island was really too little.
