The Wielder of Death Magic

Chapter 357



24th August XX90: The Argashield force which pushed Savaview Bridge was caught in a crossfire. The General retook command of a losing battle. Pincered on both sides with aerial weaponry raining death, the forces dwindled.

25th August XX90: The order to push further into the enemy line came from the top. Leading the charge was a Major named Macros, a bastard son from a noble. Shunned till the talents for warfare was discovered, the one who noticed was none other than Staxius. The installment of the Argashield Army meant that he would overlook most of the recruitment process.

26th August XX90: Kreston made an impressive move by catching their flanks. However, they didn’t predict the tenacity of the Federation. From magical weaponry to new and state-of-the-art guns and ammo, funded by Phantom, the numbers didn’t matter. Macros’s leadership under pressure paired with the resolute training by the soldiers sufficed.

27th August XX90: Macros’s platoon laid siege to the already destroyed Castle Garsley. Houses and buildings were used as cover, an urban battlefield with room for tactics. Kreston could but push back into Savaview in hopes of winning the war of attrition. The strategy of going forward almost neutralized the opportunity of flanking.

28th August XX90: A deadlock between the forces turn into who would give first. Kreston’s supply route was cut a few weeks from an air-strike. As for Macros, back-up soon arrived by plane. The TU-03 with 2 platoons of newly trained fighters. Face painted with tribal symbology, they paid homage to the god of War.

29th August XX90: The bridge Kreston made was destroyed via another air-strike. Meanwhile, the battle for castle Garsley ended with a white-flag from Kreston. The flank reserved onto themselves as more forces arrived. In total, 850 Krestonian fighters were caught.

.....

30th August XX90: The fighters are imprisoned in Dundee where a dungeon rested for the sake of war. The Dungeon keeper had but one thing to say, ‘these people are fanatics. They wish upon death so dearly I’ve witnessed brothers killing brothers for the sake of war. If tis the faith they believe in, I rather have myself alienated from the world.’

6th September XX90: Negotiations on what to do with the captured are underway.

20th September XX90: War rages, the prisoners were abandoned for their lack of faith. The 850 soon turned to 235 as people killed one another in the name of god. In god they believed till death, the passion and fanatism showed could but have one wonder. What would have been if they were not so misled? What then, they could have done so much for their kingdom.
