Southern Teritory, Kingdom of Arendelle, March 6, 1878.
While standing on a top of a hill with gentle rain pouring down the dark gloomy morning sky filled with thick cloud which left his hair, face, clothes, and skin drench, Michiro through the spyglass he was holding were attentively wandering his gaze on Fort St. Martha, the German warships composed of seven frigates, five ship of the line, and five sloop of war that were docked in the port on the town nearby the fort which was been abandoned by the populace way before the attack, on the fortification build around the town, and thousand of German troops stationed on the ships, in the town and the makeshift camp they had made on there, and in the fort itself. Fort St. Martha was one of Arendelle strongest, well fortified, and largest forts with tall sturdy stone walls that could not be break easily with cannonballs and mortars from the sea, tall watchtowers which could give a clear view of the sea and the land around it, and armed with several deadly artilleries instilled in different sections that could hurl a tons of shells which could destory warships or kill a hundred of lives in one shot.
The only weakness of the fort was its gates itself which was totally vunirable in land attacks and cannonballs yet he already anticipated that the Germans already stationed most of their troops on it in order to defend it properly when it was breach which made him concluded that it is needed a more devious plan to capture the fort more than an all out attack on its gates which would only caused hundred of lives.
"General Von Clement." General Mattias called out on Michiro as he stopped not far away from him, causing for the raven haired man put down his spyglass and closed it, placing it inside of his coat's pocket before he brought his gaze on his fellow general with his usual cold stoic expression on his face.
"The officials are all now gathered. They are ready to listen on your plan for the incoming battle and to follow your instructions." Mattias uttered in formal serious manner, making Michiro nodded his head and took another glance on the fort and the German warships in the harbor far away before darting his gaze on the direction leading into the Arendellian Military camp set in the depths of the forest.
"Then let's not waste our time here Mattias. Let's get this shit over." Michiro uttered as he moved from his place and headed his way into the camp. Without wasting a single second, Mattias followed the raven haired man and walked beside him.
"I can't believe that the Germans manage to infiltrate Fort St. Martha. It's one of Arendelle strongest forts yet it fallen in their hands in no time. Their arms are really superior than ours I guess." Mattias uttered without taking his eyes off from their track.
"I will disagree on the last thing you said Mattias. It's not about their weaponry that made them able to capture the fort quickly..." Michiro replied, causing for Mattias to broughg his gaze on him.
"... The Germans had planned their attack carefully for a long time already. They manage to lay out what they had plan flawlessly which able them to seize the fort from our hold. Not to say that according to the reports, they had attack the fort from inside as they manage to sneak some of their troops on the fort before the siege itself began." Michiro added.
"Well, I couldn't agree on you more. It's not like the fort will really could be captured by heavy bombardment after all despite of it being quite old since it was lastly been used in battle when the joined forces of Kingdom of Norway and Sweden declared war against Arendelle over the dispute here at southern teritory." Mattias uttered as he brought his gaze on their track again. Hearing the name of Elsa and Anna's grandfather, Michiro darted his gaze on his fellow general
"You are one of the Arendellian Troops that were been trapped in the enchanted forest before Elsa and Anna set it free, right? It means, you serve Elsa's grandfather King Runeard?" Michiro asked, causing for Mattias to looked at him with a hint of surprise on his face.
