The sun was just about to rise when the carriage boarded by general McGregor and his wife left his estate.
As general McGregor planned, they travelled light with only one horse carriage. Their fortune and valuables were taken in a different route out of the capital.
"It's quiet." General McGregor exclaimed with a confused face.
"What do you mean by quiet dear?" His wife asked in confusion. "It is not yet day break, so there are no people out in the streets by this time."
"I know that. But I don't like it. It is too quiet." General McGregor gritted his teeth. "You, soldier." He called a soldier in horse back that was escorting them.
"Yes general?" The soldier pulled his reigns and got near the carriage window.
"Is the west army at the location I have ordered them to be?" The general asked.
