Before the story, I want to make an announcement. I have put the final draft of the next chapters (Up to part 9 Chapter 6) on another site, namely at:

https://karyakarsa.com/robotechmania/series

I have put it in two languages, Indonesian and English. Sorry, I charge a small fee to read it, it is around 30 cent US$. I will try to provide at least 15 chapters in advance to be read there.

Please support my writing, I'm getting desperate because only very few of the reader go thare and buy the upcoming chapter. If there is a problem to pay in that site. Please tell me in the conversation.

Thank you very much.

Leifor, City of Leiforia

Explosions were occasionally heard throughout the city of Leiforia. The artillery, located 10 km from the edge of Leiforia, supported the Mu Empire troops as they slowly entered the city. They faced a city battle, street by street and house by house. Fortunately, they were using tanks and APCs that were almost immune to rifle fire from the Gra Valkas. Despite this, the Mu Empire side began to suffer casualties, while the Gra Valkas side suffered far more. Even so, the Gra Valkas troops still put up a fierce fight. The ability of the Gra Valkas troops to withstand the movements of the Mu Empire troops indicated that the Gra Valkas troops left in Leiforia were an elite army unit.

The Gra Valkas side gradually retreated towards the north.

All supports for the Mu Empire's troop movements in Laiforia and its surroundings were placed approximately 10 km from the edge of the city, where the remaining Gra Valkas cannons were too small to reach them. Similarly, in the air, there were no more Gra Valkas aircraft capable of attacking. They had all been mostly destroyed, and the rest had been relocated north of Leifor.
General Confere was the leader of the combined army assigned to take the city of Leiforia. The army consisted of soldiers from operation 'Tsunami' plus soldiers who had managed to reach Leiforia from the direction of the Leifor-Mu Empire border.

Currently, General Confere and his deputy, General Brahms, were looking at a detailed map depicting Leiforia and its surroundings.

"We have observed that most of Gra Valkas' troops have been evacuated from Leiforia towards the north. However, dealing with the remaining troops presents significant challenges. It seems that they are highly skilled and are part of an elite force," said General Brahms.

"True, we could have surrounded and attacked from all directions, but if it really is an elite force, then they will be even more determined to inflict maximum casualties on our side before they lose or surrender. Don't corner the wounded lion," said General Confere.

"It looks like your opinion is correct with the increasing resistance of the Gra Valkas troops left behind in the city. They are buying time so that all the troops can be evacuated to the north. If so, should we give them time to vacate the city and perhaps conduct an encirclement outside the city away from Leiforia?" asked General Brahms.

"That would be good, but we have a difficult timetable to accommodate that," said General Confere thoughtfully.

"Should we inform the command about this? Because if we don't, we will suffer heavy casualties. Casualties are the most avoidable thing in this campaign." General Brahms said.
