DAY 122 AMCAPITAL CITY OF JESENAThe battle of Jesena rages on, large billows of smoke can be seen miles away. Bright red fires envelops the northern side of the city. The last Imperial fort stands with a wall of fire protecting it.Even at the cover of darkness, the Cardonians efficiently broke through Imperial defensive lines. This has surprised the Imperial Commander, Derto Espret, as soon as the night set, battles were immediately halted as fighting under the darkness were nearly impossible for the torch equipped armies.But as he can see with his own eyes, the Cardonians are taking advantage of the night. The resting Imperials are getting massacred by accurate rifle fire.Thats why he has ordered a full retreat towards the heavily defended Imperial fort. While retreating they set dozens of houses alight, they also took dozens of hostages and hundreds more are trapped between the firefight and the raging fire. It effectively halted the Allied advance.Unbeknownst to the Cardonia
Two SU-30 fighters from the 13th Interceptor Squadron took off from Valencian Air Base and are headed straight towards the large Azalean fleet of airships 'sailing' above the border mountains of Archesia and Timone.The Azaleans have sent this massive fleet to formally start open trade with Cardonia, based on their reports submitted to the Cardonian officials, more than half of their airships that they are bringing are freighters while the rest are "warships" providing security for the transports.What is more, the renowned Azalean Princess would be aboard one of their latest and most powerful class of airships. And will provide third party negotiations between Cardonia and Dylasla, Azalea is pushing for a more peaceful resolution to a bloody battle between the two.The most eastern ground based air search radar then began to detect the Azalean fleet.The radar screen were then filled with lots of dots, implying that the Azaleans brought a large fleet of airships....AZALEAN DIPLOMAT
After being warmly received from the airport. The Azalean Princess along with her top officials, diplomats and merchant heads were guided towards the large airport terminal, where just outside were the convoy of vehicles waiting for them.They've marvelled on how massive and beautiful the large glass terminal, the large white 'airplanes' that easily dwarves over their airahips, it is a very intricate design and once they've set foot inside the large terminal complex, it is like getting inside a entirely different world. It was surreal, they can't understand a thing on how these large masterpiece of architecture operated as they walk through large hallways. It was beyond their expectation of Cardonia, they didn't expect that another country would compete on their level of elegance and sophistication, heck, seeing it firsthand, the Cardonians totally surpassed them.A large crowd then awaited at them once they got halfway through the large airport complex. They were then bewildered and
KINGDOM OF CARDONIACAPITAL CITY OF ESDENGRAND MALL The largest mall on the entire Kingdom is the very center of high luxury items that can be found from the country and inported around the world. Since the transfer, many items were left untouched especially the luxurious ones, the general population preferred to buy more sensible items that can be used for everyday use, thus sales on this mall were very low. The mall is under the ownership of one of the largest Houses in Cardonia, the House Mendra, the noble family overseeing the province of Embrama where the Capital is located. A few members of this House is of Royal descent, this is to ensure that the largest House in the Kingdom are loyal to the Crown. This late afternoon, most of the mall were closed off from the general public as the Azalean Princess insisted she will visit the mall instead of going on the "boring" meetings, the "Grand" mall really stand out when they were on the way from the airport. With the Prince guiding
KINGDOM OF CARDONIACLEOS NAVAL BASE *We are here live at the Reliance monument just outside the Cleos Naval Base. The Azalean Princess hve visited this memorial for the slained sailors and the damaged ship itself this morning. The Princess is said to give a speech before the media and some family members of the fallen sailors this evening. This would be then the first official statement of the Kingdom of Azalea eversince their neighbour has fired upon our ship, the Reliance.* The Azalean Princess have spent her morning mingling with the locals of Cleos, she then proceeded at the naval base wherein she payed her respect to the monument dedicated for the slained sailors of the now dubbed Battle of Northern Dylasla. She also inspected the Reliance undergoing major repairs and her first major refit. The Cardonian Navy would take the opportunity on the ships down time to incorporate a new radar, fire control and communication suites. The Saab supplied systems would be replaced with all
NORTHWEST OF KINGDOM OF NALDIA "Enemy convoy 20 clicks away. Group of 20 ships!" "Battery release! FIRE!" *BOOM* *BOOM* The forward five inch gun of the Revenge roared in action. Revenge is part of the five ship blockade of the seas north of the Dwarven Kingdom of Naldia. There is two major seas connecting the Empire of Scolus and Dylasla, one is the Timone Channel, the sea between the Western continent and that of the Northern island. The other is of course the waters north of the "northern island". Five ships of the Cardonian task force were dispersed into this large body of water, almost 80km apart, they formed a long line spanning almost 400 kilometers. The five ships are composed of three frigates namely, Revenge, Remembrance, Scout and two corvettes the Tulip and Sunflower. Formidable as it seems the ships could only go for almost a month here, it can be extended to a few more weeks with the help of the Replenishment ships. But the sheer lack of enough ships could be obvio
KINGDOM OF GINIANACITY OF JESENAPANTERA PALACE"For the past few days the New Ginianaian Army were cleaning up any Imperial stragglers to the East of the country. A sizeable force were believed to have retreated towards Scharen under the protection of the Dylaslans some brave or crazy enough who stayed are being dealt with at the moment." a Cardonian commander said as he briefed the Cardonian Regent and the newly restored Ginian Royals. The Cardonian Army have been assisting the newly formed army. Archesian translators were key for these seamless communicatiom between the two countries."It is alright your Highness, it is better to dedicate your strength and resources in reestablishing the Kingdom. We Cardonians have enough men to cross the border to Scharen." the Cardonian Regent argued, there are many things to fix on Giniana and yet their King is fully insisting that his troops would support the Cardonian in their upcoming battle with the Dylaslans.With or without the backing of
*KABOOMMMM*Artillery, rockets, bombs and even missiles were relentlessly raining down upon the long stretch of Dylaslan fortifications along the border of Scharen. For the last hours, dozens of bunkers, pillboxes and hundred meters of massive maze of trenches were obliterated by the immensive Cardonian firepower.The sounds of exploding shells could be heard dozens of kilometers away. Tremors were reportedly felt by outlying villages and towns.Thousands of defending Dylaslans and Scharen conscripts have perished throughout the night. The complex fortifications wete described later as being enveloped in 'hellfire'. The whole section of the border were left undefended as either the defenders were killed by the barrage or they've retreated.As the sun rises, the once heavily fortified border are now reduced to rubble and ash, the whole fields were left blackened.A large line of Cardonian armoured vehicles then began to pour towards the border, any Dylaslan who are brave enough to face
