Way of Overlord-Chapter 467: Different Views

Riders struggled to maneuvers, some snapping their lances to use them as short spears, while others reached for sidearms , maces, axes, or short swords.

The battle turned into a swirling chaos of hooves and steel, blood misting the air.

Some of the spear cavalry managed to withdraw, regrouping for another charge, while the sword cavalry, more agile, darted through their ranks, cutting them down from the sides.

Victory would belong to the side that could adapt faster whether the spear riders could rally for another devastating charge, or if the sword-and-bow cavalry could keep them entangled in the melee, where their long weapons were a hindrance.

The battlefield was alive with death, and the outcome teetered on a knife’s edge.

"Argh! Help me!"

"KILL HIM!"

"DIE!"

"For Ogura!"

"Utgard!"

There is chaos. There is screams and shouts. But all of this screams and shout is drowned beneath the battle

Garron uses his sword and his men uses a spear charge.

And they began fighting all over.

That one charge devastated most of Ogura first line.

Now, that the line broken, they enter deeper.

But at the same time, there is still cavalry of Ogura that survives and the one that survives is now entangled with Garron cavalry

Right now, Garron could not see everything.

All he could do right now is keep fighting

"Huh, huh" Garron look around him.

His body is now drenched with blood.

Some of it is his blood. Some of it is other people blood. freёweɓnovel.com

He is atop his horse, cutting down enemy after enemy that comes after him

Surrounding him is Waqu and his guard protecting him.

All of them is drenched in blood

Some of them are also injured but right now, they could not feel the pain

Garron could not help but breathe a little harder with each second

He looks left and right and he could see fighting all over.

Right now, Garron did not know whether his forces are losing or winning

It is hard to see right now.

On the three hills, there is also fierce battles between Garron scouts and archers with Ogura forces

He could not see this but he expected that his son would surely take over the hills. It is easy to defend and hard to attack

It is not really a mountain but the hill position is higher than the plains and that alone gives some advantage.

Ogura would surely would take it.

Garron sighed.

He is standing on top of his horse, just looking around him.

Each time a warrior of Ogura passes through the line, Waqu would only need to use his bow and arrow to dispatch this danger.

Even though Garron enter into the battlefield, right now his position is quite safe.

He directed his men and send order to the front while trying to force Ogura forces back.

But even though he seems to have turned the tide, Garron is not happy at all

" I underestimated my own son" Garron mutters to himself.

He did not think he could win this battle.

He had sent letter to Ayera.

There is still not reinforcement from Aeryon.

But he did not blame his son in law at all.

If this is Aeryon plan, he could even respect it.

He had betrayed a lot of people in his life to reach where he is today.

He betrays people and could still maintain his reputation somewhat.

But such a deed would surely come to bite him in the ass.

He just never expected that the one that would end him would be his own son. None of the people that follows Ogura understand why he did not agree with his son

It is this conflict that bring about today tragedy

Garron could not stay in the Southern Great Steppe and expand his power.

Because it is not just.

He might not care about it, and his son and the people that follow his son might not care about it but the people of the Southern Great Steppe would care

That is what his son and his son follower did not understand and overlooked.

If there is no warlords like Aeryon and Dama., then garron did not mind to expand further all over the Southern Great Steppe relying on power and force.

But there is Aeryon in the centre region of the Southern Great Steppe. There is Dama on the east. Valgrun of Khagai and Chadha on the west, Vihur on the north

There is entrenched power here and they all did not miss the opportunity now and each one seems to have power to maintain a kingdom

If Utgard tribe were to do all of those things the warlords had done, they would not have the same treatment

Because the area of region that they create their foundation is given to them by the Ashana

The premise was always for them to return back to the Central Great Steppe and take their legacy back

If instead they occupied the land that the people of the Southern Great Steppe give them and not only that, they intend to conquer the whole Southern Great Steppe, it would not be surprising that Aeryon and Dama these two incompatible warlords could even unite to destroy the Utgard tribe

Even if Aeryon, Dama, Valgrun and all of these heroes of the Southern Great Steppe did not exist, the moment it seems Utgard tribe has the power to swallow all of the Southern Great Steppe, all of the Southern Great Steppe would ally with each other and create a pct to destroy them

The reason why Garron knows this is because the Central Great Steppe also does this kind of thing in the past.

Unless you have been in that area for a few generation, only then you could have the connection and background to call that place home and not be opposed everywhere.

Aeryon taking the Southern Great Steppe would be justified. He is the descendant of the Brolgadhr tribe, a tribe that has long been entrenched in the Southern Great Steppe.

That is why even when the Brolgadhr tribe was defeated by the Xewa and Ghar tribe, those two tribes did not kill them and instead only exiled them.

Why? Because the Brolgadhr still have an invisible prestige that act almost like an immunity card

The connection and the influence of the Brolgadhr was still there.

The political capital is there to assure that they could survive.

Xewa and Ghar is an upstart new tribe. Hence why when Aeryon destroyed them, some people might feel pity but none think it is was wrong.

The name is not right, the title is not right, so everything they built in the Southern Great Steppe is like a castle built of sand.

Easily trampled, easily shattered, easily destroyed.

That is why the stronger the Utgard tribe become, the more anxious he wanted to return to the Central Great Steppe.

Leaving was the right choice. That was his assessment.

His son on the other hand believes that their destiny is here and that if they go to the Central Great Steppe they would not be able to carve a place for themselves

Garron disagree.

Even if they leave the Southern Great Steppe, it did not mean that the Utgard could not win at all in the Central Great Steppe

Just like the Brolgadhr tribe still have an invisible prestige in the Southern Great Steppe that it could save their life, the Utgard still has some tribe that they could leverage on

But his son could not see this.

And if they leave, Utgard and Brolgadhr instead of destined to become enemies, they could become each other strength.

If Ayera bore the Kan a son, then that son would be the heir of the Utgard tribe and the Brolgadhr tribe.

One is in the south, one is in the Central Great Steppe

Aeryon is someone ambitious but it did not mean that he could not be reasoned with. They are family

And surely Aeryon could be reasoned with when he is with family

Garron could see a new path.

A family that would rule the Great Steppe.

He also believe that Aeryon is the kind of man that would not stop just because he conquered the Southern Great Steppe.

If he managed to conquer the Southern Great Steppe Garron is confident that Aeryon would set his eyes to the entire Great Steppe

That man would not be satisfied with the title of Qayan.

He probably wanted the entire Great Steppe.

This is why Garron privately called him the Fool

Only Fools would have these kind of dreams.

And only fools could achieve it.

Because they dare dreams something that nobody else dare dream and dare pursue.

But all of those dreams, all of those plan right now could not compete with reality

He never expected Ogura to rebel.

The old Viper still had venom left in his fangs. But that venom...is about to run out

" I lose" Garron thought.

Even though his army is fighting fiercely around him he could see that this is just momentary shock to the battle line and the battle formation of Ogura.

Even his twenty riders are now being overwhelmed. Ogura quickly managed to find a way to contain his twenty great warriors.

But for some reason Garron could not help but smile.

And in spite of his current situation, he feel quite happy

"Ogura...he did not disappoint me" He mutters to himself.
