need."
"I'd sexteensgirl imagine so, yes. You can be a very nasty old man when you set
your mind to it."
"I sexteensgirl try." I scowled at the map for a moment.
"You'll have to stay with those archers," I decided, "and I'll be with
the Mimbrates. The two forces sexteensgirl have to be coordinated, and direct
contact between Mimbrates and Asturians isn't a very good idea. Get
started, Pol. I'll go explain the plan to Aldorigen."
It just so happened that the commander of the Asturian sexteensgirl archers Pol
brought sexteensgirl down onto the eastern side of the plain of Mimbre was sexteensgirl a fiery
young nobleman, the Baron of Wildantor, and the knight who led
my
Mimbrate sexteensgirl bridge-wreckers was sexteensgirl the Baron sexteensgirl of Vo Mandor. Garion's friend
can be very obvious sexteensgirl at times. Pol and I were careful to keep
Mandorallen's ancestor some distance away from Leildorin's. I'd
devoted a lot of time to those two families, so I didn't want any
accidents.
Our strategy wasn't particularly profound. We advanced eastward until
we began
encountering Kal Torak's scouts. The Mimbrate knights
trampled them under, and we pressed on, crossing sexteensgirl bridges every few
miles. When we began to encounter stiffer resistance, the archers
raked the opposing force with arrows, and then sexteensgirl the Mimbrates sexteensgirl charged.
It doesn't sound very complicated, but it kept Pol
and me hopping. I
had to go through the ranks of the Mimbrate knights each and every
time, pointing out the fact that they were supposed to charge the
Angaraks rather than the Asturians. At the same time, Pol sexteensgirl had to
remind the archers that they weren't supposed to shoot sexteensgirl at Mimbrates.
We eventually reached a wide tributary that had several thousand Murgos
camped on its east bank. I called Pol and the two barons in to discuss
strategy.
"This is about as far east as we need to go,&sexteensgirl quot; I told them.
"Let's sexteensgirl wreck the west end of the bridges crossing this river and then
pull back to the next stream."
"I sexteensgirl will delay their pursuit," Wildantor declared.
" No, actually you won't," I sexteensgirl told him firmly.
"You're not going to start doing that until we've crossed two more
rivers."
"I'm sworn to delay them!&sexteensgirl quot; The young baron had red hair--and all that
implies.
"Listen carefully, Lord Baron," I told him.
"I don't want the Murgos to even know that you're here for a while yet.
Mandor's Mimbrates will destroy the bridges here; then we'll pull back
to the next sexteensgirl river, and sexteensgirl he'll do it again. Sexteensgirl then we'sexteensgirl ll do it for the
third time on the next river
