The infantry was advancing quickly, but when they were still twenty miles away from the fortress, they abruptly stopped. Watching the cavalry sweep past on both sides, all the infantry and other corps that hadn't charged raised their weapons high and, after shouting three times, slowly retreated.
Of course, as they retreated, they were facing Thor Hammer Fort.
When Tiger King Jo Cole witnessed this scene, he was taken aback at first. By the time he realized what was happening, he was so angry he could have twisted his tiger nose out of shape.
It was a demonstration of sheer mockery, a naked contempt. When had the Milanese become so brazen? If Jo Cole had not been so steadfast, he might have wanted to immediately lead the Beastman Army out of the fortress for a decisive battle against the Milan Army.
With a heavy punch on the ramparts, Jo Cole cursed loudly, "Bastards."
