CHAPTER 300

ENURRUA

"We'll be in position by the end of tomorrow father." Joric spoke. "The artillery is finished getting to their firing locations and they will commence shelling the mountains this evening."

"They fired on you Joric?" Chetak asked.

Joric nodded. "Several dozen long range mortars." He replied. "They were able to get three of our guns, but that is all. They do not have the targeting capabilities of our artillery pieces and they are firing blindly now."

Chetak nodded. "Excellent. Dalkor will be announcing at the Senate meeting tomorrow the purchase of our new companies and the two Bills I had him draft. One demanding the immediate naming of a new King now that the traitor's grandson is dead because of his mindless rampage, the other demanding the removal of Deia for failing to properly lead the Union. It should be a lively debate, and it will give us the time we need to put down this petty rebellion."
