Chapter 703: Fourth Month Against Thesalie

After Philips managed to inveigle and gain the support of two of the strongest nobles, the rest of the things were easy.

The decision was very quickly made to send the ten thousand men as soon as possible to aid Lord Ponticus. 

And then to speed up the process even more, the plan was modified slightly in regards to the type of the men sent.

Meaning the force would also have men from other nobles to make the numbers, rather than the previous decision to send from only Mithriditus's and Lord Theony's numbers.

With so many nobles giving each of the men they had right on hand, reaching the ten thousand number would certainly be much faster.

As for the problem of supplies- well that was easy, once the boats dropped the soldiers off, they could return to the capital to pick up the goods and then make the trip again.

It was not like Lord Ponticus needed those boats for anything.

The whole thing would at most three to four weeks.
