The Great War of Rhodesia
14. Margrace region
The four Vossler troops who were about to attack Mara City were already in their respective positions in front of each side of the city gate.
Vossler himself led the army at the north gate, while Versica at the west gate, Karka at the east gate, and Guanna at the south gate.
.
Vossler who also carried the Wind-powered Mystical sword was seen preparing to use it to destroy the gate.
And at about the same time, the other former Champions also did the same. They began to flow their Mystical Weapons with Soul Streams to prepare.
.
The first to attack was Guanna. The burly Narva man stood in front of the gate, beyond the range of the guard's arrow shot.
Although his existence caught the attention of the guards, yet he still calmly swung his Mystic Weapon in the form of a giant earth-powered hammer and smashed it with all his might on the ground before him.
At the same time, the ground along where it stood up to the gate, was seen starting to move down. It was as if there was a hole at the bottom that caused the ground to long downward, with an unsettling rumble.
The Guard Soldiers who were on top of the gate wall looked start to be confused themselves for not knowing what was really going on. Then the floor they were on suddenly shook violently, and then collapsed slowly along with the entire gate.
Panic soon struck the Guard Soldiers who had survived the ruins of the gate. And without waiting for them to return to alert, the Rhapsodia Army immediately took advantage of the situation. They ran over with swords and pistols in both hands.
.
While at the east gate, Karka who did not care that the Guard Soldier had realized his existence and started showering him with the arrow, continued running closer towards the city gate.
The reason for Karka's bravery was that, because only by turning one of his axes in the air, no more arrows could touch him.
Then as soon as Karka felt the gate was already within range of his attack, the flap-haired Morra man immediately slashed his two weapons across.
The eastern gate of Mara City was split into four large pieces with just two slashes. That left the road leading into the city, which was guarded by a line of heavily armed soldiers.
This was immediately responded by the Rhapsodia troops by rushing in. A battle between two armies ensued.
While Karka himself looks like he is enjoying the battle. He also ran towards the opposing soldier while swinging both axes wildly.
.
While Versica on the west side uses the power of his Mystical Weapon in the form of a whip sword from a fairly safe distance. He managed to make a hole large enough for more than three people lined up, right in the middle of the gate.
And just like on the east side, the battle between the Guard Soldiers and the Rhapsodia Warriors happened right in front of the gate. Even as Karka did, Versica took part in the battle with her sword whip that whipped dangerously towards the opponent.
.
While on the north side, Vossler smashed the wooden gate into pieces with the ******small pickaxe created with the help of his Mystical Weapon.
And it did not stop there, ****** the pickaxe had also flown some of the Guard Soldiers away from the gate. Which gave a gap to his troops storming into the gate.
The battle at the north gate was fought faster than the other gates. That was because the formation of the Gate Guard Warrior had been split since before the battle began.
.
And finally the battle on the four sides of the gate of Mara City that felt unbalanced was finished before the day changed.
In addition to the impact of the inaction of the Guard Soldiers of the surprise attack, also because there was no competent General or leader that caused Mara City to feel easy to take over.
Then after entering the city, the rebel group began to take over to lead the Rhapsodia Army directly to important places, so as not to cause too much damage or take unnecessary casualties in the city.
And therefore, shortly after the troops of Rhodsodia entered the city, the noble leader of the city, along with several other noble families subordinate to Vistralle, managed to be captured without any significant resistance.

As well as Radio Communication Antenna and also harpoon weapons powered by air pressure. All of which are still in half-assembled form in wooden crates. Not to miss the Air Pump and Electric Generator.
And indeed the existence of the Yllgarian Forces led by Evora and the Airship was deliberately hidden from outsiders as long as possible. So that when the time comes, where their existence is really needed, the impact on the opponent will be felt.

"For the gods, where did all these wooden coffins come from? Do you have any Mystical Transfer Equipment?" karka asked as she found a pile of wooden crates in front of the north side gate.
"Not to think about. Someday you'll know that too." Vossler replied casually as he followed his subordinate soldiers unloading the chests.
"There are so many strange tools you have." Karka shook her head slowly as she saw strange equipment being taken out from inside the wooden crate.
"Here you go, let's help us assemble all these weapons and equipment on top of the city gate wall" Vossler said.
"Yes, except on the south side. Because there is no wall left in that place," said Karka then while lifting some metal sticks as high as half his body.
"What do you expect from a Taurus? The Mystical Weapon was indeed made to destroy" said Guanna from beside Versica who was seen not accepting Karka as if he was accusing him.
"Hey, if your reasons are like that, you think my Cancer and Versica's Scorpio aren't made to destroy either? But still the gates we handle are still intact." Karka replied with sewot.
"You should've understood that 'destroying' also has some kind." Guanna won't budge.
"Once you go, stop you. Don't even fuss yourself over unimportant things at a time like this" Versica said with a slight annoyance. He was seen carrying two metal boxes the size of a Long Adjustable Rifle in both hands.
"Yes, I think for a while now we're going to create a barrier in front of the ruins of the South Gate, before putting these weapons behind it." Vossler said, trying to end the debate. "It is only then that we will think about how best to rebuild the gate" he added.
"Yes, I agree." Versica answered quickly.
"Then, let's get to work" Vossler replied later.
"Then General Vossler, what about Roland and the other noble families?" ask Versica then while walking with Vossler towards the city.
"You mean the leader of this town?" Vossler. That was only answered with a short nod by Versica.
"For a while we'll lock them up in a safe place within this city. Until we get a response from the center." Vossler. "Because it seems that after this, Her Majesty the Queen will send an Ultimatum to Vistralle to surrender unconditionally," he added.
"I understand," Versica replied as she nodded again.

In the morning dozens of Iron Trains began to move from the central region of Rhodsodia to the City of Varun.
Together they join Aksa, Nata, Lily, and Val. While the two women, Rafa and Luque who were usually always with them, for this time were unable to come along. Because their tasks in the central region were still unfinished.
.
While in Varun City itself, forces led by Wedge began to move forward towards the border of the Lighthill region controlled by the kingdom of Augra. Together they were taken 8 Destroyer Trains.
While the troops led by Biggs began to move to the border area of Ceodore to make a camp that will later be used as a base when it wants to attack.
