A Chilly Summoning [Discontinued, rewritten in another book]

Volume 1 - Chapter 10: Operation Kyndill

24 September 1609, 7:30 AM
Few kilometres away from the Romadian-Marinsean border, Romadia

The 4th Romadian Corps is a unit containing 32,000 footmen, 8,000 archers and 5,000 cavalry combined to a total manpower of 45,000. They also have 2 wyvern squadrons, each containing 15 wyverns. This unit is about to siege the most fortified fort in Marinse, Fort Erumia.

They planned on camping near the fort, lower the morale inside by being noisy and would attack once their morale is low enough. However, they just received a new report on the frontline saying that the Chirunans has set up a camp of their own too nearby, but their main focus here is the fort. After they've capture it, they'll then turn their eyes on the Chirunan camp.

In the morning, the unit began their march. They would set up a camp near the fort in an area which was scouted by their wyverns. They captured Qwardon after 20 minutes of marching but the town was long abandoned by its people. An hour and a half after they began their march, they've reach the designated spot to set up a camp. They sent some scouts to make sure the surrounding area was clear of enemies.

They set up their camp and everything seemed fine so far. Then, they began making noises outside the fort to lower the morale of soldiers inside it. Everything was going according to plan. However, it was also going according to Chiruna's plan too.

12:15 PM

The defenders inside the fort was getting tired of the noises coming from the Romadians camping outside. They wanted to send in their wyvern squadron, but that would be a waste because the Romadians have three times the amount of wyverns.

It seemed like they're going to face this for days, possible weeks. The general commanding the fort ordered everyone to strengthen their heart so their morale won't decrease, but it doesn't seem to be working as well as intended. The archers are just waiting for the right moment to strike those damn Romadians, but unfortunately, they can't. If they attack them, they'll get counter attacked by an entire army corp, which was a bad idea.

The fort would be getting reinforcements in three days from now, so they'll have to wait until then.

General Alexander Hardhe, the commading officer of the fort, is also on the outer walls of the fort, observing the Romadians. Even though he had a weaker army than the Romadians, he had a card in his sleeves; the Chirunans. He's currently waiting for the Chirunans to make a move. Just then, a messenger came to him.

"Sir Hardhe! I have a message from the Chirunans. They said they would conduct a 'bombing run' on the Romadian camp to eliminate them for good. They are waiting for your approval, sir."

"Finally, they're doing something. I'm not sure what they meant by a 'bombing run' but if they have a plan to silence those Romadians for good, then I'm all for it. Send a message to them that I approve it", said Hardhe.

He can finally see the Chirunans in action. He couldn't see them back during the Battle of Qwardon due to him being stuck to commading the fort, but he did heard rumors of them, such as fast-flying steel wyverns, "arrows of light" and steel elephants that could spew out a powerful explosion spell. He wanted to see if these rumors are true and if it is, they're lucky to have an ally like them.

FOB Skjöldur

On the runaway, 8 KAI FA-50 pilots was doing the final check-up on their fighters. Their mission? To bomb those Romadians to kingdom come. They're each armed with 3 Mk 83 bombs and 4 Mk 82 bombs. If one sortie isn't enough and there's still some left who haven't surrender, they'll use some of their artillery to shell them. There was a helicopter dropping leaflets on the camp telling them to surrender, but to no avail.
