Default Flying movement to a province with a friendly besieged castle

Will this movement end up inside the castle or attacking the sieging enemy? Just realized my (flying) movement order does not have an option to clarify if I want to attack sieging army or go inside the castle. What will it be?

I THINK you will retreat into the castle, so you can do that to reinforce the defenders. Of course, I could be wrong.

I can verify that one, I've had to use that strategy way more often than can possibly be healthy. Teleport or teleport like effects work for that in general. Of course, I mostly play EA Arco, and the units teleporting are usually stealthy, so I might be wrong.

I can confirm that teleporting will reinforce the defenders inside the castle, stealthy or no

you can also sneak in, but snuck units won't fight that turn

I am about 95% certain that in no case will anyone fighting in a battle in the besieged province retreat into the castle. They will retreat into neighboring provinces, but neither reinforcements coming from outside or defenders breaking siege retreat back into the castle if they lose.

Ok, i am a bit more confused now : my 2nd question was:

- If I teleport a mage into a province where i have one of my castles besieged by an enemy, will the teleporting mage go to the inside of the castle and reinforce defenders or will it attack the sieging forces outside the castle?
