Chapter 96: The End (Part 3)
```
After the two forces joined, Colonel Bod took over the command.
The existing troops were no longer sufficient to divide for feint attacks or to conduct an overwhelming siege.
The only feasible plan was to attack through the breach on the west side, the same location where Colonel Laszlo launched his previous assault.
The White Lion had not reinforced the defenders; his reinforcements were probing the southern wall of the main camp.
Outside the southern wall of the main camp, the battle had already begun.
Alpad led eighteen fully organized companies—including the Standing Army, auxiliary troops, and sappers, with the last of the light and heavy Cavalry as the spearhead—thrusting fiercely into the left flank of the barbarians.
If Alpad could rout or block this section of the enemy, then it would be a fight between cripples at the Southern Highlands fortress.
With the addition of Bod's large unit, the Paratu side still had a chance of victory.
