The Great War of Rhodesia

Antology Story: A Quick Attack

It appears that Vossler is holding a brief directive to the leaders of the group that will carry out the attack on the deck of the Airship. Evora as the leader of the Air Force also followed these directions.

"So we don't need to defend these places after we take over. We just need to loot whatever's inside the place. Whether it's treasure, weapons, or groceries" said Vossler, who was wearing full protective clothing that looked no different from the ones used by the Elite Forces.

"We will attack quickly. So if there is a place that takes time for us to master and we plunder, then we do not need to master or loot it. Burn and destroy the place. Understood?" added Vossler later.

"Ready, gotcha!" exclaim the leaders of the group standing before Vossler.

"And for public places, make sure you only paralyze the soldiers and those who might be in danger. Prioritize the safety of civilians."

"Ready, gotcha!" the group leaders once again.

And that night the attacks were carried out simultaneously in 6 places at once. Which each group consists of between 15 to 20 people consisting of humans and Yllgarian. Be it a Rifle Warrior or a Fighter Witch.

.

Seen between the night sky, the Yllgarian Air Force dropped the soldiers in a safe area at the direction of the network of Versica informants, not far from where they would be targeted.

Then coupled with the number of information and sometimes also the guard positions, the Rhodesian forces can launch attacks very effectively and efficiently.

And not long after that the sounds of fighting began to be heard. But all of that happened quickly.

Without taking time, the places that were targeted were successfully taken over all. There are also in some places visible fire soaring high that makes some residents panic.

.

The Yllgarian Owl troops were assisted by several Yllgarian Bats to transport goods such as weapons and food supplies that were at the place they attacked earlier, up on the Airship.

When they are finished, they immediately move to the next target. Which makes it seem as if the Rhodesodian army just disappeared after carrying out the attack.

At the Vistralle residence in the city of Dios, a person was seen running hastily towards the master bedroom. The Vistralle resting place.

"Dux Vistralle, Dux Vistralle" cried the thin mustachioed Narva man in panic at the door.

"What's up, John? You're being chased by a demon." The half-awakened-looking Vistralle opened the door of his room.

"Groans, Dux. There's been an attack on our weapons and food storage." The Narva man called John replied with a slight shout.

"attacks? Who did it? What is the kingdom of Augra?" Vistralle who was still wearing his nightgown was now fully conscious in shock.

"No, Dux. They're the soldiers of Rhapsodia." John answered.

"What did you say? A rhapsodia? Immediately notify all the generals to prepare. Protect our sanctuary that they still have not attacked," Vistralle ordered swiftly while rushing to change his clothes.

"I'm sorry, Dux. But our entire vault has been attacked by them."

"All of it?" Vistralle stopped buttoning his shirt, then took a gulp at John. "How come? Do they have spies in this area?" More questions for himself. "Call all the generals here. Quick. Order to see me immediately" he added, commanding John.

"The generals are here. They're waiting for you in the meeting room" John replied immediately.

"Why didn't you say that earlier? Come on, get to the meeting room."

"To this extent, I have received reports of 20 places, Dux," replied the Narva man wearing the brooch sign of an Honorary Baron on the chest of the clothes he was wearing.

"What's? 20 places?" Vistralle looked really surprised.

"really. They are attacking simultaneously throughout our territory" said another Narva man who appeared to be wearing full knight attire.

"I've expected them to do things like this. But I didn't think it would be this fast" Vistralle complained as he shook his head slowly.

"All right then. Now order the soldiers to save the weapons and foodstuffs that we can still save, and gather them to one place and then guard them with all the troops that are there" Vistralle ordered later.

"Okay, Dux," replied the man wearing the knight's clothes as he stood up and then hurried away from the room.

"I'm sure they must be doing this to distract and try to break up our troops" said Vistralle, who was seen thinking as he knocked his finger on the table repeatedly.

Everyone inside the room no one dared to make a sound when they saw their master was thinking of finding a way out.

"Steave, call Tyrion and Augra's party immediately. Tell them about the matter, and ask them to send a relief force," Vistralle orders later to a young Narva sitting next to him.

"Well, Dux," said the young man called Steave quickly without thinking. He stood up and hurried to leave the room.

"And you, Gall. Tomorrow morning the movement of all the troops we have into Ignus territory. I'm sure they will definitely make an attack on the region" Vistralle continued, giving orders to Narva's burly man with a protective iron plate attached to his shoulders and chest.

"Well, Dux," replied the man who then stood up and left the room with 2 other men.

.

It seems that there are now only a few people who still live with Vistralle in the Meeting Room. After the great generals have begun to move to carry out their respective duties.

"How did all this happen? I thought you'd been watching the people suspected of being Rhodsodia spies? Why would they know exactly which storage places we keep secret among the residential areas?" Vistralle who had calmed down a bit asked Lucas who was his right hand.

"I've been keeping an eye on everyone we suspect, Dux. Especially those three former Champions," Lucas replied trying to explain. "However, they have not shown any suspicious movements. They do not meet new people or travel outside the region. Even though the three of them often had meetings in this suburb."

"Is it possible that they transmit information using Arcane stones?" Vistralle began to try to digest things more calmly.

"That's the greatest possibility, Dux," John said. "The sudden appearance and disappearance of their soldiers is also strong evidence that they used Arcane rocks for the attack this time," he added.

"I don't think so." Lucas refuted. "First of all, the central region of Rhapsodia has a magic tool made by the Aeron clan that can turn off the power of the Arcane stone. So any kind of Arcane Stone will not be able to work on their territory" he explained later.

"Oh, right. I've heard of it too." Vistralle nodded small.

"And secondly, some of the storage places we have are already installed Magic Formations that can disrupt the Soul Stream. So there's less chance of their army attacking using Transferring Magic" Lucas continued.

"What if their spies managed to shut it down before they made the attack?" John disagrees with Lucas.

"The "Magic Form that we installed was guarded quite tightly. Unless their spies are one of our soldiers, that's unlikely to happen. And also I dare guarantee there are no spies in our soldiers." Lucas tried to defend his opinion.

"Then how do they attack all our storage areas without leaving any trace?" ask John who still feels all these things do not make sense.

"It could be that the kingdom is creating strange equipment again" Vistralle said second-guessing. "I feel uncomfortable with all this."
