on the way to Tantozi....

back to the Begovian war ....

After the Wittenberg forces scattered the Begovian army at Sarfala, most of their cavalry and some of the infantry took to pillaging the opposition's camp and baggage. General Waldebeck checked his maps and decided to attempt to block the nearest route across the border with Begovia. Von Hazant's brigade had arrived after the battle and was ordered to march to Tantozi to hold the river crossing.  Once the rest of his troops were back under control he would follow up the Begovian army ...
