Battle of Whitetail Woods PART 3- Breakout

Previous ChapterNext Chapter

Whitetail woods... Roman Fort, 20th Day of Seige... POV Equestirans...

"-So then once the gate falls we use our short-swords to charge in clear the fort. So once we capture the Humans we can finally-" Shining is cut off when a guard steps into the commanders tent.

"Sorry to disturb you but the fortress gates are opening and-" The guard is cut off by a massive amount of screaming and a massive amount of hoof steps storming past the tent, soon shining and Blueblood run out of the tent to see the entire force of Roman Cavalry storm pasts the tents and equestrian guards.

"Whats going on!" Shining yells as he draws his sword but as soon as he does all the horsemen have already stormed past them, thundering down the path away from the siege and fort, luckily for shining its not in the direction of ponyville.

"What happened?!" Blueblood yells.

5 Minutes ago.... POV Romans...

"So everyone got that?!" Vesperianus says to all the cavalrymen he has along with their horses.

"Uhh can you repeat that, i was in the latrine.." a random Horseman said.

Vesperianus sighs. "Ok so the plan is that you are to storm past the equestrian lines and regroup with the Japanese troops at the rally point. Try not to die during that" He says to the one Horseman.

After the explanation the horseman all mount their horses and gather their weapons, armor, and a few supplies ready and mount their horses as they gather around the gates ready to charge out of the fort and past the Equestrian lines, hopefully using the shock of them charging to minimize casualties.

The sun is already halfway set and the plan is for them to charge the area where the Equestrians will have the sun in their eyes as to make it harder for them to hit the horsemen.

Vesperianus commands the garrison to open the gates and the horsemen wait for 10 seconds, then thunder out of the gate, hooves tearing up grass and soil as the horses thunder out and turn slightly to the point where the sun is behind them. The thundering hooves of hundreds of horses wake nearly all the Equestrians nearby, but by then the Romans are already at their lines, the ones who were awake and equipped were easily slaughtered by the passing horsemen, the ones who just woke up simply stayed in their tents or behind trees as the thunderous charge of horses passes by, a few equestrians manage to hack at some horsemen but are killed before they can inflict any major casualties to both rider and horse. after 1 minute of thundering horses all the Romans made it past and head to the designated area they were told to go to.

"Wooooh we made it, BARRITUS!" One Horsemen yells, which is quickly picked up by the other horsemen until the whole column is yelling cries of 'barritus'....

Equestrians POV.. 1 Min after Cavalry Breakthrough....

"You let them through!!!" Blueblood yells to the large group of soldiers lined up in front of him. "After 20 days of this siege you let an army of humans on those... Things get through!! Now well have to have double.. no. TRIPLE the amount of patrols and Guards making sure we don't get stabbed in the back while we do this siege! And not only that! But well have to worry about them attacking any nearby Caravans or Towns with quite literally, 0 Ways to defend themselves!"

"Blueblood i think that is enough, we were simply caught off guard and weren't careful enough. There's nothing the guards who were patrolling could have done to stop them, there were simply too many and they were too fast. Don't blame it just on the Soldiers." Shining tells blueblood as he walks out of his tent fully armored.

"That may be so but there shall be no room for anymore failures, we will not be beaten by humans. We are the Equestrian Royal Guard and what kind of example would we make to the world if we were to be beaten by lowly humans, we would be a laughing stock to the world! Not only that but the ponies would lose faith in the guard to protect them, and if word gets out to the Human slaves then they would revolt, knowing that even the guards couldnt beat another group of humans who outnumbered them 2 to 1!"

"Calm down blueblood, your getting ahead of yourself. You wont think of anything useful when your angry like that. Now calm down and let us think rationally now."

"Yes yes.. I suppose your right again. Forgive me for my slight outburst. But for now we will need to triple the amount of patrols and guards awake at all times until we preform the siege or the humans surrender, which might be longer now that this plan of theirs has worked or at least is in progress. Wait! You two!" Blueblood points to a pair of pegassi guards. "Follow those Humans and find out where they are going and why! Quickly now!"

"Yes sir!" The two Guards yell out before taking to the sky and going in the direction of the Escaped humans.

"Good now that that is settled we can focus on fortifying our lines."

"What do you mean by that?" Shining asks.

"I mean we build a fort, Around their fort, to cut their other humans from the fort and to give us a defensive position if the humans were to try to escape again, or try a raid." Blueblood says ecstatically. "yes that is a good idea" He says to himself "You three! Start gathering guards to begin construction of defensive walls around the human fort!"

"Blueblood, while that does sound like a good idea we got to think carefully and pouring ponypower and Resources into this might be a waste of time or a fatal mistake if we dont think it through."

"Yet if we wait the humans might come back and strike us where we are weak and even take more prisoners or supplies to fuel their revolt. We must act now." Blueblood exclaims while ordering more guards to gather wood and tools.

"But Blueblood-" Shining begins but is interrupted.

"Shining must i remind you of who Celestia put in charge of this mission, not only that but that i graduated at the top of my class in the Royal Military Academy." Blueblood Boasts.

Shining sighs and shakes his head, knowing he cant convince him to change his mind or at least think this through. So he simply goes to fulfill his orders and build a wall to keep those humans out or in....

POV.. Nagai/ Japanese Army.. Location... Human Arrival site...

Nagai and his army have been waiting at this Clearing where they and the Romans have arrived in, hoping to find another Human army arriving or that have already arrived, but none came yet. Not only that but Nagai's lingering fear that his new Roman allies might be under attack at any moment and he would not know. So he frequently sends scouts to check up on the fort from afar, each coming back with the same information. That the Siege continues and nothing has changed. But the latest report indicates a change, The section of roman Cavalry have broken out and have come towards them, and gone past them, one leaving a written note from Vesperianus himself telling Nagai of his plan and not to worry about the cavalry, for they can take care of themselves in their misson to-

"Bushi Nagai, Something is going on!" A random Ashigaru says while rushing into his tent.

"What is it soldier! have the Ponies found us?!" Nagai asks in response

"No... The ground in the clearing... It changed color.. and there are clouds appearing overhead..."

"This is what we've been waiting for, tell everyone to get into the forestline and prepare for anythying!"

"Yes Sir!" The man leaves to relay the orders.

"Buddha give me strength for i believe i am going to have visitors to meet..."

Author's Note

Thank you all for liking and reading this story, all critisism and grammer nazis are welcome here. Anyways im trying to make these stories faster but also longer, but im not sure which i should focous on, making 1000 word long chapters faster, or making 2000+ word long chapters every week or two. What do you guys think?

Also.. BONUS POINTS... Guess who the next army is going to be from and you win the right to decide the next army that gets teleport-ed in, (Stapart you don't get to try cause you already know the answer)
BTW Anything ive said before about hinting to the new army is completely irrelivant cause stapart made me change my mind with a better idea.

BTW 2: The bythewayining. may be a while before a new army gets teleport-ed in but it will still be there, plus you can change it if you like.
