Hey... A chance the war is upon us guys! You should take it! You only have to fight a battle on two fronts on the defensive, with a military genius on the other side and the fort not being fully repaired to withstand a siege because of the number of troops in it!
Edit: There is no reason you should run away!

Turn 2 (October 31) Results
You took a deep breath as you surveyed the prisoners. They were now at your complete mercy, and they knew it. In their ranks, there were whispers about you. "The Demon of the Rus" was your new mockery from them, along with "The Khan of Death".
You preferred the first one compared to the second one. You were nothing like those savages that had destroyed your home. You were not a man who was to be trifled with. Being called a Demon was nothing to you. Those Horsemen who were now your prisoners were far worse than any demon of hell.
Anya and her Cossacks rode in the night before, singing songs of victory against the Mongol scouts. But they were in awe at the tales of your victory. How you killed so many men yourself in the field, how your cannons shattered the lines of enemies like they were leaves in a pile, being blown away by the wind.
But Fulk had let you choose the workload for the Mongol prisoners, seeing how you were the one that saved him.
How will you treat your Mongols?:
[X]A Proper Punishment: They are prisoners of war, you will not subject them to anymore then what they deserve. They will do the labor, but they will work the same shifts that your men do. (+10 to Revolt Roll, Cost of Actions will remain at -75% next turn)
You treated them the same way all prisoners of war were treated. Nothing more nothing less. It seems that was a mistake.
There is also the matter of if you will march this season, or stay and winter. What will you do?
[X]Continue: You need to keep up the fight on the Mongols, be the aggressor that forces them on the back foot. (Locations will be given if chosen)
You were caught, trapped in Fulks fort, the only way you could get out was fighting your way out. (Continued in Defense of Yamatau Fortress)
Diplomacy: With Fulk's Fort secured, you can manage your forces better.

In the few days you had before the Mongols arrived, you managed to send a messenger bird to the Empire, begging for anything that they could spare. The same message was sent to Vlad, who you wondered where the hell was, he had sent no messages about his movements or location.
Reward: Contact with the Empire established.
[X]Signal Company: Your voice cannot carry its way across an army, but Banners can carry your orders in simple ways. Cost 50 Supplies. Chance of success: 35% Reward: You train a signal company. All battle rolls get a +5. Changing tactics will now only get a -10 to the rolls. Rolled:1D100 => 95

To answer your questions: The Great Khan was expecting us to go after him, and give his people time to capture Fulks Fortress.
You see the Mongols wanted a multi-day battle against us where they were the defenders inside the fortress, to wear us down in either a siege assault or the siege itself so that the Great Khan could trap us and strike us in the back.
They did not expect us Fulk to be a very stubborn defender who would not give up, Us to arrive when we did, and our army having cannons to rip them to shreds and force them to retreat while taking massive casualties.
As to why they're not in open rebellion. Simple: They don't know the full casualty count that we inflicted. They think there are more prisoners then there actually are. And most of the leadership still thinks their Great Khan is fucking terrifying.

Time to release some prisoners to tell them then.

Too late, they're already rebelling. So you have a battle on two fronts to worry about this time.

If we survive, the war is over. We'll have practically killed all the Mongol leadership and have broken their backs for centuries. And we get the nifty bonus of being the most legendary commander of all time.
