The Great War of Rhodesia
18. Ravus Region
"That means it's time for us to carry out the Ravus territorial acquisition plan." Nata spoke via Radio Communications to Lucia and the others, the next morning.
They were discussing Helen's news of the Augra army beginning to move.
"It is not too late to prepare for the Augra army, if we take over Ravus now? While we also have to defend and attack other areas?" Lucia asked from Nata's Communication Radio Speaker.
"No need to worry, Your Majesty. The Augra army numbered in the hundreds. They won't be able to move fast through the Trava Mountains."
"Indeed, the Trava Mountains will indeed be a little difficult to pass with a large group," said Lucia sounding in agreement with Nata. "Alright, Nat. Execute your plan," he said, then gave his permission.
"Okay, Your Majesty." Nata.
After the conversation, Nata immediately contacted Helen to give orders to attack Araz City. The city of Ravus.
The plan was; as long as Helen and the Elite Army attacked the city, Wedge's forces on the border of the Ravus region would also conduct raids to divide Ravus' forces.
.
While in the city of Mara the construction of the city gate has been completed entirely. Now some of the workers and soldiers under Versica began to head to small towns, and villages on the outskirts of the territory of Margrace.
They want to build roads and infrastructure to these places, so that in the future it will be much easier when they have to send troops or assistance to the people who live there.
And they also have to finish it off as much as possible before the troops from the opposing territory arrive.

That night at a small campground in the woods on the outskirts of Araz, Ravus. Helen and the Elite Army were already seen preparing for the attack.
They will attack according to the plan, which is at 11 p.m. And only 30 minutes left.
Although they had no spies in the area, they had been around the city for almost a week, so they were well aware of the rotation of the guard schedule, important military sites, and so on, and also a path to get in and out of every corner of the city. And that information is more than enough for them.
.
As soon as the time on the watch showed at 11 pm, they immediately moved towards Araz City. Along with the Wedge and Destroyer Trains troops also began to advance towards the defensive fortifications on the northern border of Ravus.
While in a unique and distinctive way of fighting, Helen and the Elite Forces managed to infiltrate the city without attracting attention.
It then took advantage of the situation where half of the city's soldiers were deployed to the border region to help deal with the attack from Wedge's forces, The Elite force that had been incapacitating the guards secretly and sneaking in earlier, began to finish off the remaining soldiers.
.
In one of the warrior barracks on the north side of Araz City. Two soldiers were standing guard inside the post at the front gate.
"Have you heard of their Iron Train that could destroy the fort walls of Randon City?" asked a curly-haired Morra soldier to his colleague who was seen folding his hands in front of his chest while leaning his body and closing his eyes.
"Already," replied the colleague still with closed eyes. "They really are a terrible kingdom. I hope the troops from the center will arrive soon before the Iron Train gets here," he continued then still without changing position.
"But reportedly the kingdom also had a Knight of Light who was able to summon the legendary bird in the Trava Mountains there. I hope the army from the center isn't held back by the Knights." The Morra soldier looked really hopeful.
"Your words are also true. They should have attacked this region using the power of the legendary bird from the south." The Morra warrior called Finn was seen nodding small. He seemed to have just understood something.
"May not be too trusting with the news that is not yet clear reality is like that." The fellow soldier stood up then raised his hand to stretch his muscles. "If they had a bird of legend, we might no longer be alive today." And just after he finished speaking, the soldier suddenly fell backwards onto the table accompanied by the sound of broken glass and pottery jars that fell.
"Ray! What's going on?" Finn immediately grabbed the body of his colleague lying limp between shards of glass and pottery in the guard post. "blood? Not this bullet?" he said after finding blood began to pool from the head of his colleague.
"Damn, we're under attack. The city is under attack" Finn said in a panic.
And as soon as the Morra soldier stepped out of the guard post, an iron bullet lodged in his head. And immediately took the life of the soldier.
.
Two teams from the Elite Forces, Altair and Deneb did indeed make their first direct assaults on the Garrison and the warrior barracks north of the city, where most of the soldiers were resting and unprepared.
And therefore, the soldiers of Ravus can be finished off quickly and without any significant resistance.
Meanwhile, Vega's team assaulted the city leader's residence and arrested him. Only then did they carry out a cleanup of the rest of the soldiers throughout the city.
Then after the situation in the city was successfully controlled, which only took no more than 1 hour, only, The Altair and Vega teams immediately continued their assault on the Ravus Army fighting on the border of the Lighthill region, while Team Deneb guarded the town.
.
And because of a surprise attack from the rear, making the Ravus Army who had to face opponents from both directions, can not survive anymore, and began to disintegrate. Some of them fled to Saronia, while the rest surrendered.
After that, the Wedge and Destroyer Trains at the border of Ravus immediately advanced towards the city of Araz. And about 2 hours later, a large army of Rhapsodia under Wedge arrived and occupied the city of Araz.

The next morning, news of the successful invasion of Ravus was reported to Lucia and to other cities. Which means the next job for Matyas and his group is to build a Steam Train line from Mara City to Araz City.
Later in the day, the task began to purge the soldiers and nobles of the kingdom of Augra from the small towns and villages around the region of Lighthill and Ravus. Following the task of clearing the Vistralle forces from the Ignus and Margrace region which had begun from the day before.
.
Meanwhile, the train line that connects the three cities; Varun City, Mara City, and Randon City, has also begun to be completely used. That makes the delivery of everything from the central region of Rhodsodia to carry out development in the southern region it becomes much faster and easier.
And along with that also troops from Saronia and Feymarch also arrived at the border of the territory of Margrace.
