Into the fire (part 1)

17th July 1574 morning

The reconquest of the Tarnowian lands was implemented with a total of three small armies, yet when my troops finally reached the outskirts of the city proper, only a bit less than two hundred men remained.

"Are you sure it is a good idea?"

Looking behind, as if that could change anything at this point, Pavlo spoke with a worried expression. Thinking about this over again, but now actually facing all the forces that dared to lay siege to my lands, maybe leaving most of my army back near the marketplace wasn't the brightest idea…

"Yes, I am."

Even if I had doubts, I couldn't just let them show on my face, or even worse, I couldn't dare to admit to them. Right now, all that mattered, was that the plan to lift the siege off the Tarnow would be finally enacted!

"Everyone, move forth!"
