บท 283: The Chaotic Command Center 279

```

Everyone was still investigating what exactly was happening when gunshots could be heard outside the command post. Everyone fled in a frantic disarray, with the neighing of war horses and the distant sound of artillery causing everyone to only think of retreating.

"What's going on?" the leading general of the Germelin Kingdom, having heard the commotion, charged out of his command post with his guards.

This was a manor in a small town, previously owned by a minor landlord, and now it had been requisitioned to serve as the headquarters for the Germelin Kingdom's troops.

The small town was dotted with parked wagons, countless horses, and a plethora of servants and attendants looking after the animals.

The sentry troops were in complete disarray because outside the town, the enemy's gunfire and their own gunfire were intermingling, clearly indicating that a battle had already begun.
