Plans, even the best laid plans, are like ideas drawn in the sand.
You have a lot of fun drawing it, but as soon as the enemy appears, everything gets fu- ehm. I an, everything gets ssed up. That's why he is called the enemy.
I had planned for a glorious and climactic victory over the Grand lee by dealing with the remaining two thousand, having the whole spotlight on and securing containers of bacon and roast pork for myself that would last for years.
Alas, it was not to be.
I an, of course the crown would go to . The bacon and roast pork too. There was no question about it.
But the way the Grand lee ended was definitely not the way I had envisioned at all!
Instead of the whole crowd cheering for , or at the very least, sitting in stunned silence over my awesoness, they were all… cheering for a red hot battle between the Lins and the Wangs!
One versus two thousand and winning easily was epic to start off with. But after twenty minutes of mindless bashing, it gets numb and boring really quickly.
Better pay attention to the incredible and much more balanced and thus much more thrilling fight between two of the strongest powers in the country!
And so, I "killed" my last enemy while being completely and utterly ignored by the crowd.
"Fine. Let take a look at just how exciting the battle is." I sighed deeply and made my way towards the raging chaos a few hundred ters away.
I could already see their battle formations, and looking back, it was incredible that a bunch of ten year olds could pull off such an epic battle involving such complex formations and maneuvers.
The Lins had adopted a three-part formation called [The Gryfalcon] involving ten heavy chas in the middle and a combination of dium and light chas in the wings, with the dium chas taking the positions closest to the center.
It was a highly flexible formation that allowed the Lins to react to any threat accordingly.
Having lighter and faster chas on the outside of the wings allowed them to be highly reactive and enabled them to get to any place quickly.
Even if the enemy sought to cripple them by sending out heavies against both wings, they could "fold back" the wings and have them retreat behind their own heavies.
Once there, they could easily take on "Arrow" formation with the heavies in an empty wedge formation and the diums and lights inside firing out.
The disadvantage was that if the wings weren't coordinated well by a good commander, they would be easy pickings and their formation could fall apart from the outside in.
It was a complex but excellent formation indeed, worthy of the young Eternal General.
On the other hand, the Wangs were led by the twins. Naturally, they were separated into two groups. However, the strange thing was, they weren't separated into two equal groups.
Elise Wang led a much larger group of heavy and dium chas, with at least twenty of them advancing in two rows.
Eliana Wang led a small group of seven dium chas, and they were advancing towards the Lins from the north, pretty far away from Elise Wang's main group who was advancing from the East.
It was the Wang's fad [The Hamr and The Anvil] formation.
Elise Wang would serve as the impenetrable Anvil which would resist the enemy, draw out and absorb the bulk of their fire, while Eliana Wang would hamr them from anywhere she liked, poking at their weak spot and delivering the killing blow.
The fact that she led a small team comprised of dium chas granted her the flexibility she needed to poke at the enemy as well as the firepower to deliver a killing blow.
All in all, it was also an excellent formation and no less awe inspiring as the Lins'.
In terms of execution, however, the Wangs held the advantage right from the start.
Elise Wang and her twenty chas posed a massive threat, and Sheera Lin had to send out her ten heavies to resist them.
At the sa ti, Eliana Wang had taken one look at Sheera Lin's formation, and imdiately struck at their northern Wing, right in the middle at their dium chas which were between the light chas and the heavy chas.
With that one move, the Wangs had unleashed their "Hamr" on the Lins' "Wing" and had imdiately gained the initiative. If they could clip one of the Eagle's wings, the Lins would be placed in a massive disadvantage!
Sheera Lin had the pleasure of having to react to that.
A pleasure which she relished imnsely, of course.
For the Eternal General, she probably lived for such monts, where she could turn the tables around on her enemies.
Eliana Wang's dium chas started their hamrblow by firing off a volley at one dium cha which was defending against Elise Wang's heavy cha, instantly killing it.
Thereafter, they took out their short swords and charged at the other dium chas.
Bam! Bam! Clang! Clang!
If nothing happened, Sheera Lin's dium chas would be massacred, and her light chas would be stranded! Her north wing wouldn't just be clipped, it would be pulverized!
However, Sheera Lin remained completely calm and allowed the fight to go on for a few more seconds before she finally gave out her order.
"North wing. Arise." Sheera Lin ordered, and instantly, the nine remaining dium and light chas blasted their thrusters and shot up into the sky!
Of course they could fly.
What sort of eagle would they be if they couldn't?
However, Sheera Lin wasn't the only one with surprises.
As soon as the North Wing blasted their thrusters, Eliana Wang and her "Hamr" ignited their own thrusters as well!
VROOOM!!
They shot up into the sky and joined Sheera Lin's North Wing there.
Seven Wang Family dium chas versus nine Lin Family dium and light chas.
It would be an aerial battle coming up next for them!
