Response to the Traansval
Tyron Gren and Mios Askwell sent an acknowledgement letter back to Mark, and then mustered up some forces.
These were the forces.

Kuruzov had sent 20,000 new recruits of the military who were already trained and needed to see combat for the first time, along with 10,000 troops who fought in the Cariebbean Civil War along with the Rannorian civil war. 40 Lenine's were sent as well along with 20 CT-100s, and a squad of the Kavaronian Gun (my nation's Maxim, just invented by a different dude whose last name was Kavaronian) was sent. 10 CT-100Fs and 20 Lenine Mk. 2s were sent as well. Only 2,000 people were in this regiment, and 3 people manned each gun. It would use water cooling, and was fully automatic yet stationary. They lacked manpower, but the war saw proving ground against enemies outside Rannoria.

Response to the NCSU

To: Emperor Johann II of the NCSU
Subject: Celebration!
We gladly accept! I and my colleague, Mios Askwell, send our condolences for your loss. Death is untimely and unfortunate. Though, I shall be coming whilst Maestoso Mios Askwell manages the nation. When does the party begin? I shall land in Thatcherton, but please do specify which port and where it is.
Thank you!
Regards, Grand Mios Askwell of Rannoria

Huh

Remember the above post. Remember the forces Rannoria sent?

Well they weren't even sent at all. They were just standing around in Rannoria.
So, the force was sent, and so a telegram was sent. When someone entered the room telling about Sylbania, Tyron thought it would be wise to do something. He knew about the order, and so he did it.

But first of all, he just answered to what Nikolai said.
"So I now I'm confused," He made a strange smile. "Do you or do you not choose the pacifistic route? But for now may you excuse me, I need to do something..."

He got up, and went to the telegraph, and wrote to Marcus Ragnus of Aclus.

Hello. If you didn't know, my name is Tyron Gren. New grand of Rannoria.
But I didn't telegram you for introductions. No, what I'm asking is some aid on where to start with on the Sylbania campaign. I am sending forces to aid the effort against the Free Sylbanians, and so I need the knowledge of where to locate my troops.

- Grand Tyron Gren of Rannoria

Tyron Gren sat down. "So... uh, yeah."

Mios spoke to Melissa. "True, true..." He sipped his tea, then put it down.

Nikolai seemed a bit annoyed by the question. He set one arm to hold onto his forehead and the other one to hold the teacup.

"I believe that the pen is mightier than the sword. But I do believe that military intervention is a primal blueprint that all nations require at one point to use, and at worst I see it as a necessary evil."

Melissa chuckled a bit. "You know this dress, Nikolai's mother gave it to me... It was the dress she used back when she was with Oswyn at that party over 20 years ago. That's where my father and Oswyn meet for the first time."

[Norcourt]

Norcourtian Fleet, 40 Miles off the coast of Nippon

The Norcourtian Fleet, along with the first 7,000 Soldiers, were to establish a camp on the coast of Nippon. More specifically, they were to land on the southern peninsula, by boat. By now, rifles were being inspected on the daily, machine guns being lubricated, and prepared to be mounted on boats. There was no knowledge of any opposing force, but there was to be no chance for slip-ups, as this was the first Division to be sent.

Harker, the 36th Rifles, the 22nd Regiment of Foot, and Lord Lewis' Light Infantry, were all to be deployed, as the first reserve of troops, as they had experience in colonial fighting. These men were newly equipped with the new M1889 Field Equipment, with some still preferring pith helmets in the hot weather. Instead of the single-shots of old, they had the Bannerman-Croft bolt action rifle, a new, yet unproven rifle adopted into the military. Many of the soldiers, were straight from Sylbania, and Goldrush, and were taught new tactics of rush attacks (However, some officers were reluctant to adopt these, and often used the older types).

As time is nearing end, the Norcourtian Soldiers waited, some slept, and some stayed awake, scared but at the same time excited, as many Norcourtians had never been outside of their own country, region, or even town...

[The Imperial Warglorian Empire]

City Hall, Veice City
Generaloberst Lindenburg, along with Generalleutnant Erich and Generalmajor Heinz, along with Kommodore Perry, gather in the City Hall to talk about plans. "Status Report". Heinz placed a map on the main table. "The city is secured, all resistance has been taken down, the troops have repaired and occupied the former Aclusian defences, incase of Entente counter attacks." Erich said. Heinz put down another map on the table. "We are here, und the enemy camp is over here, 15 kilometers south from our position." Heinz said.

"Our scouts report that the enemy is digging in, and their army, mostly lower grade Arenginian soldiers, number over 85,000 soldiers." Heinz said. Lindenburg bit his lower lip, "Und we only have 61,000 Active SA Soldat left, even with our superior quality und more advanced weaponry, it would be suicide to attack their camp up front." Lindenburg said. "Furthermore, the Arengin 8th Army has been sighted, and is advancing, most likely to support their camp,via land and sea, by my estimation it will be 2 days till they get there." Erich said."

"However, I have a delaying action." Perry said, getting another map. "My squadron, made from 4 Wargland Class Battleships, und 2 Führer Class Dreadnoughts off the coast of Sylbania, they will be able to delay, maybe even stop the Arenginian 8th Army that will be going by ship, and if we succeed, then we could slow down their land force."

Lindenburg clenched his fists, he knew that this would be a great challenge. "What about our reinforcements? General-Feldmarschall Hans Landa promised 50,000 soldat, along with 10 more Panzer Is and IIs and 2 more Kriegzepplins if he could help it." Lindenburg asked. "Well, command came in, they say that the reinforcements are about 4 days away." A soldier said. "4 days? Damn it, we need to beat them now before their reinforcements arrive." Lindenburg said"What about the status of our vehicles."

"The Panzer Is that have been damaged are now repaired, und the Panzer I that was abandoned in the mud during the battle is being towed out." Heinz said. "All the injured are being taken care of, however, one of the Kriegzepplins was badly damaged when a shell passed right into it's balloon hull, luckily not setting it off, and we don't the supplies to fix it right now. It's slowly loosing gas, and will have completely deflated by tomorrow."

Lindenburg put his hand on his chin, "Gentlemen, I have a plan, an insane one, but one that just might work...." Lindeburg said.

Midnight, 1 AM, Close to Arenginian Camp
Lindenburg's plan was put into action, the damaged Kriegzepplin, filled with explosives, and occupied by 250 Elite Luftwaffe Soldiers from the newly made SA Luftwaffe Paratrooper Corp, wearing Oxygen masks, flew quietly above the Arenginian Camp at 1 AM(note, they would be at a high altitude, at 50,000 meters/50 km), where it was darkest. Close behind, about 500 meters away, was 5,000 Elite SA Shock Troopers, hiding in the night, completely quiet. And following them even more behind, about 2 kilometers away, was 20,000 SA Soldiers, awaiting a signal to advance.

Soon, the plan was set, the paratroopers adjusted the doomed Kriegzepplin to a point where it would crash into their base, and then tested a recent addition to the Warglorian Army and Luftwaffe, for the first time used for military purposes: The Parachute (note, we already have parachutes for a long time, this is just the first time we're using them for purely military purposes).

Soon, the commandos started to jump off the zeppelin, launching their parachutes, as the zeppelin fell from the sky, as it's gas nearly ran out. They were equipped with prototype and modified Mauser C96s, each with a longer 20 round clip and longer barrel. About 2 large, heavy boxes filled with rifles, ammo, wire cutters and explosives were also parachuted down.

Soon, the zeppelin fell with amazing speed as it's ballon hull soon turned into a blanket, as it plummeted into the Arengin Camp, setting off a fierce explosion as it fell on the enemy encampment, and the Paratroopers slowly landed. As they landed, they took of their oxygen kit, grabbed their equipment from the boxes, and slowly creeped onto the Arengin Camp.

Arengin Camp

Much of the last day had been peaceful, with Arenginians able to mount decent defenses they only had to wait for the 8th army to arrive. It was all quiet as Arenginians and Aclusians shared stories while in their trenches and Boers kept somewhat vigilant but steadfast.

Suddenly the earth was shaken by a loud thunder, it was as if Goliath had fallen a thousand times over. The night was suddenly bright as the soldiers climbed out the trenches to see what had occurred. A part of the camp had been decimated by a fallen Warglorian zeppelin, medical and officer tents had been squashed as explosions plumber in the air and smoke and ash covered the area.

The officers at the trenches ordered some of the men to continue to defend the line as they took others to help fight the fire. It began to rain once again as it had the night before and that helped a bit to decimate the flames. Still the matter was Vurl, the officer in charge was in danger of death and that was something they could not afford.

Inside the tents Vurl himself was helping the survivors evacuate, he was covered in mud and ash as he carried a fellow soldier outside. Suddenly a man in dark uniform attacked Vurl with a shovel. The shovel only managed to hit the soldier, killing him. Vurl then began fighting the man hand to hand. Though Vurl was not a young man he managed to get good punches on the enemy. He hit him right on the gas mask and continued to do so until breaking the glass lids.

The man began screaming of pain as Vurl got up from him and picked up the pistol he carried, he killed him without hesitation as he ordered the incoming soldiers to register the area and sent the officers to command the troops and defend the line.

[The Imperial Warglorian Empire]

Arengin Camp
Soon, the commandos were inside the camp, and had sliced the necks to f several soldiers already, before arriving at a segment of the defences. Soon, the commandos started planting/hiding the bombs in the trench, as well as installing them into machine gun positions, since some of the defenders werent there, and any they did encounter would be killed.

The bombs were set to 5 minutes, at 4 minutes 30 seconds, the officer would launch a flair to signal the attack.

Arengin Line

The entente soldiers were quick to know someone had smuggled into the line, many soldiers lost their lives as they were cowardly stabbed in the back by Warglorian soldiers. The soldiers began to search and one by one they took out the enemy while they planted bomb and were near to activate them. Sadly still many soldiers had already lost therir lifes to the cowards that had no honor.

As soldiers went in large patrols and many others that were attacked by the enemy began to fight back against the men in weird dark uniforms and masks the fire at the camo began to die out as the rain began to drop heavier. Arengin soldiers would overwhelmed the coward infiltrators inside the trenches and stab them with their bayonets, killing them.

They had managed to stop many from activating bombs on machine gun posts but still the officers yelled. "Keep looking, there might be more." The soldiers kept looking.


Cowards in the dark, by Dimitri Chuchunov, (Circa. 1989)

[The Imperial Warglorian Empire]

Arengin Camp
The stakes were great, and these Commandos had known this. They knew it was unlikely that the many, or even any, of them will return alive. Out of the 250 Elite Commandos, only 32 were left, and they knew that they would have to sacrifice their lives for the success of the mission. Soon, it was 4 minutes 30 seconds, the officer in charge of the commandos quickly got out a flare, and fired it into the air, creating a great light in the night time. Soon....the Arenginians were upon them, but they wouldn't go without a fight.

Each soldier had vest that was filled with explosives. Soon, the commandos ran up to any Arengin soldier they found, and as they were stabbed, they pulled out a pin, which made a horrific explosion as any Arengin Soldier, and the commando himself, near the bomb was completely disintegrated. As the explosions of the suicide commandos blew up, and even deadlier blast cam 30 seconds later, as the bombs started exploding in the trenches, the Arengin defences being blown to smithereens.

500 meters away
Soon, the 5,000 Shock Troops saw the flare, they slowly advanced, still sneaking. 30 seconds later, the commandos and the defences started blowing up, at this point, the Shock Troopers started charging at full speed, screaming war cries as they charged into the now demoralised Arengin Army

2 km away
The main force of 20,000 soon, saw the flare, and started to advance in an orderly fashion. The plan was that the explosions would cause chaos, and destroy the defences, then the shock troops would destroy their morale, and kill many of them. And finally, after the main Arengin Army was completely unorganised and distraught, the main force would mop up any survivors.

Backup Trenchline

The Arenginian admired such courage from the enemy but at the end of the day they were the enemy. Quickly the Arenginians managed to kill the remaining not before flares were shot in the air. The wounded enemy soldiers tried to crawl away from the Arenginians preparing their rifles and bayonets.

One of these soldiers lay against his comrades corpses as an Arenginian soldier, bayonet ready calmly walked to him, the soldier took off his mask as he breathed heavily from multiple wounds. His blonde hair, blue eyes and skin white as light despite the mud and sweat, he looked young and was at the mercy of the Arenginian soldier, who loaded a cartridge into his rifle and aimed.

The Warglorian then broke the silence "Wait."

A flare light flashed between the two as they stared into their bloodied faces from the fighting. The Arenginian lowered his rifle and with his sleeve cleaned the saliva from exhaustion on his beard and mouth.

"Wait? wait for what... Is that everything a mighty soldier from the Warglorian army has to say to me after he and his friends killed my brethren. Wait so someone saves you? Wait for me to change my mind! Or just wait so you have a few seconds extra to live because you're so fucking weak you can't even bear with the thought of dying... I expected better from Warglorian scum like you..." The Arenginian aimed at the mans head.

Then loud bangs were heard from a far. The Arenginian man then saw how the Warglorian was just praying, a photo of his family right on his bloody coat.

Suddenly a fellow Arenginian soldier came by and said. "Matteo come on they're attacking the trench line."

"Coming... just killing this Warglorian..."

"Well do it fast..." the soldier went away.

Matteo aimed the rifle, the Warglorian simply took off a vest, it seemed filled with explosives ones that would kill a man 100 meters away. But the Warglorian hadn't used it, he simply laid there vulnerable and with a face filled with sadness and pain, the same could be said for Matteo.

Matteo lowered the rifle, the Warglorian looked at him with disbelief. The Arenginian gave a small nod with his head and ran away into the trenches, leaving the Warglorian behind.



Main Trenchline

Many explosions could be heard from the main trench as soldiers were scared and confused at what had occurred. Then suddenly an Arenginian lookout saw it, a man in Warglorian uniform lurking ready to trow something, the light from the flares shined on his helmet. The Arenginian aimed and with hesitation fired, the shot was heard all around the trench as the Warglorian fell dead. Then the resting entente soldiers went out of everything they were doing and got into position.

As Machine gunners readied their guns they heard something under the earth a click sound, they dug it up and then. BOOM. Over 9 machine gun positions were lost in seconds as Warglorians began charging. The confused entente soldiers simply began firing. The remaining machine guns also began firing, however there were only a few left, the soldiers would have to hold on as more machine guns were brought.

The shock troopers were already close, the bastards had slithered like a snake in the dark and the rain to get close to the trench line. They jumped in armed with clubs and bayonets. The Arenginians quickly fired at them as they came into the trench, killing the first ones and creating massive bodycount into the barbed wire. But still there were hundreds of Warglorians jumping in, the Arenginians, Boers and Aclusians began to brutally fight, using rifle butts, knifes, clubs, fists, teeth. It was brutal.

The machine guns then concentrated their fire on the incoming main attack.

[The Imperial Warglorian Empire]

Arengin Front Line, 2AM
Soon, after the flare, the shock troops charged, many screaming out things like: "Heil Wargloria" or "Death to the Eastern Brute!". Although some were cut down, the shock trooper's attack was unrelenting, some used their rifle butts and bayonets, however, a specific unit in the shock attack used another weapon. One of these units were the 4th SA Foreign Battalion, an equivalent of the Boer Foreign Legion. This specific unit was shipped from an indigenous tribe in Allinium, and were soon adopted into their army.

They wore spiked helmets, but what was most terrifying was that the were allowed their own culture into the Army. They would hallow in vicious woos, as they charged across the field. Instead of a sword or a normal weapon, they used daggers, and something more terrifying: tomahawks. Soon, they started screaming their war chant, as they viciously sliced into the Arengin ranks with tomahawks, and their savage chants. More gory, was when they started cutting off the Arengin scalps and hearts.

They viciously ripped into the Arengins, killing, mutilating, slicing, scalping, and many other horrible things.

Native Allinium Foreign Soldiers

[Arengin Union]

Trenchline

The trench was filled with death and screams from the endless fighting. The Arenginian were fearful and shocked at the barbarism of the Warglorian soldiers, using hatchet like tools to cut open the heads of unsuspecting soldiers. However the Arenginian quickly began using tools of their own, spikes, clubs, maces or rocks. The Arenginians jumped on to the Warglorian shock troopers and began fighting it out, some would use their fists and punch their foe nonstop until their heads looked like muck.

Other Arenginians fought multiple foes at a time, avoiding their bayonets ends and holding down the savages tomahawks they fought with courage and strength. Suddenly Arenginian reinforcements arrived, they were members of the cavalry division, armed with their short rifles they fired at the incoming wave killing multiple Warglorians and filling the barbed wire and obstacles with bodies.

The cavalry men, also known as Cossack's, jumped inside the trench armed with machetes and sabers and began slashing the unsuspecting Warglorian, no hold bars for them. Light from flares on both sides and explosions filled the sky, blighting the battlefield as Arenginians and Warglorians fought for their lives. The Cossack's had a twisted way to fight, unlike the Warglorian Allinium they cut one of their foes ears before killing them. Multiple Warglorians fell on the floor as they screamed from pain at the lose of one of their ear, only to be immediately killed by the Cossack saber.

The Cossack groups kept in formation as they marched further in the trench slashing any Warglorian that was foolish enough to confront them. Then they found themselves in front of the Warglorian mad men with tomahawks, both groups looked at each other. Shit was going down.

[The Imperial Warglorian Empire]

Trenchline, 3AM
The fighting had gone on for a long time now, the shock troops, and most likely the Arengins, were exhausted. And the addition of the Arengin Cossacks just made it all the more harder. Still, the Warglorian Shock Troopers were extremely elite, and were trained for high durability, still cutting away at the Arengin troops. Even the injured would try to fight, like some who have collapsed to the ground would try to cut off the feet of a horse or Arengin Soldier.

4AM
Shock Troops were still fighting viciously, desperately trying to kill them all, until something happened: they heard a bugle horn. Suddenly, in the distance, as if the dark master had sent help, 100s of men on horses appeared, bearing the Warglorian banner. They were the Warglorian Imperial Heavy Dragoon Regiments. They were extremely elite troops, as cavalry was not the most used tool in the Warglorian Army, however, since the racket hasn't died down, the SA troops decided to send out a support party.

The Dragoons were armed with a shortened carbine version of the Gewehr 88, pistols, heavy sabres, and lances. They rode heavy, large black horses, and could double as both cavalry and infantry. There were over 800 of these mighty cavalrymen, and they were arguably as vicious as any SA trooper. Soon, they started charging down from the hill, firing rifles and pistols at the enemy Arengin Army. Soon, they satchelled their rifles and pistols at a very fast speed, and then took out lances.

Soon, the cavalry charged right into the blob of Arengins, penetrating many of them with lances. After using the lances that were either damaged or broken, as lances were pretty much useless in close quarter combat, the dragoons dropped their lances and took out their sabres at a lightning speed, and started slashing down both Arengin infantry and cossacks. Some of them even used pistols along with sabres.

Warglorian Imperial Dragoons

4AM, 1 km away
They were nearly there, the main force of 20,000 soldiers were nearly at the Arengin Camp, it was only 1 more hour or so away.

Slightly Behind, in the Arengin Backup Trench line 3AM
A squad of about 10 shock troopers were able to pass to the Arengin Back Up trench line (because I would suspect everyone is busy with the main trench). They had hoped that perhaps they could find supplies, or kill an officer, but they found something else along the way. There was a Warglorian Commando, who was lying by a tree, barely breathing. One of the shock troopers, Albert Einstat, spat on the commando. "You coward, you should've died! you didn't even use your explosive vest." Said Einstat, pointing at the vest.

The commando nodded, and shed a few tears. "I....have dishonoured.....mein......Führer....und mein fellow....comrades." The commando said hoarsely. "That's right, and the fact you didn't commit suicide is despicable, you don't deserve to live." Einstat said, as he drew out a pistol and aimed it at the commando. Suddenly, the commando said "wait." as he had did before to that Arengin Soldier. He then put his hand out, Einstat knew what he wanted, and agreed.

Einstat gave the pistol to the commando, who then aimed it at the side of his head. Before pulling the trigger, he said a quick few words: "SIEG HEIL NACH WARGLORIA!" Suddenly there was a loud bang. Einstat put down his hat, and raised his arm in the usual salute. "May the eternal dark master make you serve the state in a way that is honourable." Einstat said. He's comrades also started raising their hands in the salute.

[Arengin Union]

Backup Trenchline

Vurl and the rest of the officers were now issuing orders more effectively, now that the fire had died and new machine guns were being taken to the trench line. Reserve soldiers guarded the camp so to avoid any more surprises.

"Sir, the warglorians have deployed their cavalry, their doing significant damage, your orders?" An officer exclaimed to Vurl.

Vurl thought for a second, "Set down the machine guns a few meters away from the trench line mow them down, send in the remaining 4th cavalry." Vurl moved the cavalry figure on the map towards the attacking ones.

"Sir what about the Warglorian force approaching. We have managed to contain the shock troopers but I don't know how it would go with a wave that big in the main centre line." The officer said frantically.

"I want the artillery batallion to fire the Tsaron Guns on the grid. Order the remaining machine guns positions to hold fire until the artillery barrage is done and the enemy is close." The soldier then saluted and went off to deliver the soldier.

Artillery Line

A messenger arrived, he gave the orders to the commander who quickly assembled the troops. There was also Boer artillery as well as Aclusian.

"GRID 374201. Danger close." The men set the coordinates and loaded on the cannons.




"READY, FIRE!!!"

The cannons, pounders, and howitzers fired. The shells fell onto the ever closing Warglorians shredding the land and their spear headmen in half. At least a good chunk of them were killed. Dawn was breaking.

Main Trench

The remaining cavalry force led by commander Ulinev rode courageously as they approached the trench, slashing any Warglorians that had managed to cross the line. They used their lances to cut right into the Warglorians chest, then let go and used their carbines or sabers to jump over the trench and slash any remaining shock troopers.



Some Warglorians tried to retreat only to be shot by their won commanders who yelled them to keep fighting. The remaining Warglorian forces was now only a kilometer away, many were bloodied and it was apparent the force was not complete as it had lost many from the barrage.

The Arenginian cavalry then clashed with the remaining Warglorian dragons and used their spears and swords or rifles to chase them and fight them. The soldiers and cossacks at the trench had now managed to kill most of the shock troopers and began firing at any enemy cavalry men. Reinforcements from other trenches arrived to support their comrades.

At the east side a Boer officer led a major force in attacking the remaining Warglorians from the back. The 5,000 Aclusians led by Leron arrived and began to help their Arenginian allies fight off the last troopers. Quickly the Entente finished them all off and concentrated in the arriving Warglorian force.

Then the machine gunners followed orders and as the Warglorians received rifle fire front he Entente infantry while jumping inside the trench, the machine guns began unloading on them.



Command tent

As Vurl commanded the forces a shadow lurked from behind, with a pistol drawn and aimed at the commander's head. Then an Aclusian officer yelled. "SIR GET DOWN."

The pistol fired but Vurl had moved and the bullet hit him right on the chest. He fell down as he took out his own gun and fired all the rounds from his revolver killing the warglorian.

Vurl fell on the ground, blood coming out from behind his back as entente officers tried to tend his wound and soldiers scanned the area. "Leave me be.... we got a battle to win..." He said as he sat down on a chair and took out a canteen with alcohol. "Colonel Chucovk, you're in charge." Vurl simply sat and drank.

The officers followed his orders despite being clearly worried, but Vurl remained awaken as he drank.

The Main Army
The Warglorian Army had arrived to find that the enemy was now in full attack, not at all effected by the attacks. They started firing back furiously, and the Warglorians were caught by surprise. Lindenburg watched, as many of his troops lay dead, and the Arenginian Troops, of how they did not seem tired at all, but more determined then ever. Lindenburg put down his binoculars, then looked down. "Sound the retreat." Lindenburg said. His generals looked at him with surprise.

"Sound the retreat sir? But we're so close to victory!" Eric said. "You call this close to victory? Look at this! Look at it! Thousands of dead Warglorian Soldiers, and these Entente dogs still both outnumber and outgun us, and they don't seem exhausted at all!" Lindenburg said. "Sound the retreat!" "Herr Generaloberst, I beg you, just one more push, and we will have victo...." Eric said. Suddenly, Lindenburg grabbed Eric's robe by the neck, and shoved him close to himself. "Look at the field man! One more push and we're all dead!" Lindeburg said.

"I will not allow the useless shedding of blood any longer, sound the retreat! Or I'll blame this failure on you!" Lindenburg shouted. Eric reluctantly responded with a nod, and signaled the bugler to sound the retreat. In an orderly fashion, the force of the SA marched back over the hill, marching back to their camp. The remaining shock troops and the cavalry also started rushing back to their lines.

The Entente forces had made it. They had managed to drive back the ever so fierce Warglorians. The Boers and Aclusians took on the guard as the Arenginians who had fight on for the entire night fell to the grass to rested. They were all exhausted.

Matteo climbed over the trench as he saw the Warglorians running away and still bring shot by machine guns. "That's it... They're running. We did it... WE DID IT!"

The Arenginians were fierce fighters who could fight for hours without end but once the battle was over they need plenty of rest. They celebrated by raising their rifles and chanting to victory.

Other began to gather the dead. They had lost so many good men.

Vurl at the command tent was taking his last breaths. An officer came to notify of good news.

"Sir the Warglorians are on retreat and the 8th army is closing in by land. Soon we can be on the offensive."

"Very well son." And with that General Vurl passed away.

Casualties

-10,907 Arenginian infantry troops
-890 Aclusians
-2,797 Boers
-178 Arenginian Cossacks
-26 regular cavalry men

Lindenburg decided that he had wanted to see how the his enemy was, and so before he left, he got out a white flag, and waved it as he walked slowly towards the camp. "Generaloberst, what are you doing?" Erich asked. "Vell I'm going to congratulate mein enemy on his success." Lindenburg replied. "Vat? But they'll capture you!" Eric said "At least bring a small bodyguard." "Nein, I want to be civilised, and show them that ein am no threat." Lindenburg said. Soon, he arrived at the Arengin defences.

"Ein am Generaloberst Lindenburg, I travel alone und I'd like to congratulate your commander on his brilliant vicotry." Lindenburg said.

With the return of the defeated force, a counter-attack was suspected. Soon, the trenches were manned, and fully garrisoned. Barbed wire and mines were placed, and machine guns posts and bunkers were built. Artillery were set, tanks and kriegzepplins were put in supporting positions.

With Vurl dead Colonel Chucovk had been promoted to General and commander of all remaining Entente forces. He was rather young for a colonel, 35 and with a now grown out beard and was obviously dirty and with dried blood on his face.

The soldiers took out Burl's body to the grassland and gently lay him there with the remaining dead. They all mourn his dead, even Boers and Aclusians took off their helmets and caps to honor the man.

Then screams were heard. Arenginian and Boers at the trench aimed their their weapons at a lone Warglorian who claimed to be the enemy commander.

An Arenginian had his bayonet right on the Warglorians face. He examined his pockets and coat, nothing. Then he heard what he had to say.

"We'll see about that." The Arenginians pulled the Warglorian with them, he was almost dragged through the mud were he could see the bodies of hundreds of dead Warglorians.

Some Arenginians pushed the man so he moved faster or just for the fun of it. The Boers didn't take part in such treatment but they could understand why the Arenginians would treat a Warglorian like this.

"Slucvok see vallock. Warhlorien chivleck tartopla!" The Arenginian soldier yelled as they arrived deeper into the camp. The Arenginian soldiers exited their tents to see what was happening. They all looked at the Warglorian with anger and distrust, slowly they began to get close and surround him as he was bright yo Chucovk.

Chucovk wasn't as deducted or anywhere near as elegant as Vurl. He arrived still dirty and with a bloody face. He allowed his soldiers to play with the Warglorian for a bit, they would throw their cigars on him or slightly slap him in the back of the head.

Some even began to scream at him and point him with their own knifes and threaten to cut his tounge and ear by making the gesture. Then Chucovk made the officers stop the soldiers, and they did.

The officers pushed the soldiers away while yelling them to step off and leave the man alone. Then they helped the Warglorian up and allowed him to see the new general face to face.

"I come to understand you wish to speak with the man who commanded this 'great victory.' Well there he is." Chucovk pointed at Vurls body. The Warglorian seemed a bit saddened by the realization.

"He was cowardly killed by one of your soldiers. Shot in the back." Chucovk exclaimed quite coldly.

Arengin Camp
Lindenburg was dragged into the camp, as he could see his fallen comrades. "Sie sterben ehrenvoll, mögen sie ein besseres Leben im Dienste der schwarzen Sonne finden. (They died honourably, may the black sun give them a better life)" Lindenburg said, holding a talisman with the black sun on it.

He felt as he was pushed around, slapped, thrown, he was even threatened here and there. But he was an officer of the Warglorian Striekrafte, and officers rose through the ranks via military combat. He was used to it, as he has felt other things, like being hit on the head with a brick. Overall, he didn't mind this reception, he was even amused about the fact that a Warglorian Soldier would never do this.

Soon, the group around him was pushed away by officers, by this time his cap, uniform and great coat was muddy and dirty. Soon, a colonel approached him. "Not the most welcoming committee, eh?" Lindenburg said. He later saw that the leader of the Arenginians was dead. "Vell, with all do respect, mein soldat are trained to only shoot a man's front." Lindenburg said, walking over to the body.

He then got out a small talisman of the black sun, sliced his hand with his sword, covered the talisman with the blood, and then put the talisman on Vurl's body. He then raised his hand in a saluting position, and then walked back to the Colonel. "In the Warglorian culture, it's called Blut Respekt, we use it as a sign to honour soldiers, whether friend or foe." Lindenburg said, covering his hand with a rag.

"Ein haven't properly introduced mein self, ein am Generaloberst Franz Lindenburg of the 4th Sylbanian SA taskforce, ein from New Berlin, und ein am age 28, a high rank for a young age no?" Lindenburg said. "Anyways, ein suppose that the congratulations now go to you Herr...."

"Thank you." Chucovk said as he shook the Warglorians hand.

"I apologize for the attitude of my men. They have lost so much and emotions are running high. I hope you understand." Chucovk order for new and warmer clothes to be brought and he gave them to the Warglorian.

"I'm colo-" Chucovk paused, he glanced at Vurls body.

"I'm General Chucovk. Commander of the Entente forces. Yes it is pretty impressive to see a general so young. I myself am 35 years of age. Well let's us continue this talk inside a warmer place da?'

Arengin Camp
"Nein, I'm just fine with mein current clothes, I'm used to it, und Danke." Lindenburg said, giving back the clothes, and then walking inside the tent. "Ein think I understand, however, I find the lack of discipline in your soldat quite disturbing, even if mein army lost this many men, we would never do such a thing to the enemy general, in fact, any who would, would most likely be shot on sight." "Und ja, it is quite interesting, for a man mein age to be of this rank, ein am in fact recorded as the youngest soldat in the Warglorian Army to have achieved the rank of Generaloberst."

"Und let me tell you, it vas no easy task, all officers must start from the very bottom, and raise up to the top to become an officer, you know, meritocracy, non of zat royalty bull shit around here." Lindenburg said. "Now, interestingly, I received this commission 2 years ago, I was in Sylbania, und ein was a Lieutenant, however, the Generaloberst in charge was killed by your Arengin guns, so I took command, und did very well." "Because of mein actions, ein was assigned to be the new Generaloberst of the Sylbanian Task Force, und I was given the Steel Cross for mein actions."

"Anyways, I would suspect that things are going well for you, und zat you will be preparing for a counter attack?" Lindenburg asked.

All Skartenian Army Camps
Anticipating the Entente awnser, Skarten started to open places for volunteers.

Any volunteers would be given 2 Weeks with their family, before having 1 final week of Special training to teach them how to fight in the Grassland/Flatlands.

Even though this could mean death for many people, many soldiers volunteered,believing that it would be better than war, and the chance to be free of going to a real war made them join it.
The new volunteers divisions would be named of:

The 3rd Landswehr Volunteer Legion
The 6th Cavalary Volunteer Battalion
The 9th Artilery Volunteer brigade
And, the 2 Most promissing:
The 1st Freikorps Panzedivision Volunteers
And the 2nd Sturmtruppen Volunteers
It was said that any soldier that volunteered would win the
"Medal of International Honour", given to those who show honour to defend the Peace of the Entente and Of the world.
Medal Of International Honour

The number was still not determined, as many were still volunteering
