Nahr River
Retreating from Bawwaba Medina to save the fleet, the Admiral faced a disastrous defeat. Despite knowing the size of the Sach'aqan Navy, and that they couldn't afford a heavy defeat, she was still pessimistic, and in a strategic panic. Her next task would be to help defend the Alssahran capital. And, while on a video call with an Army General...
"This.....this....." mumbled the Admiral
"...Hmph...Naval power cannot win this war alone...or, at least, succumb the Sach'aqans. I have a proposal, General"
Army General Iginikore Aurum listened. He was an influential force in the military, and a stern one as well
"Well, we must hear it, no?"
"Send an army to reinforce the capital. ~40,000 troops should be enough make the damn junglies to be forced out of the capital. After all, we must resist with all our might"
Iginikore authorized it, but with a condition
"I see. There is only one condition for me to send them"
"And that is?"
"Contact the air force. My men cannot be the only boots on the ground"
Akua accepted. It was a wise idea, after all
And now, it all came together to her. She would need to strike as hard as she could in Alghana Al'ard. If her fleet failed to do so, she risked the Sach'aqan Navy's wrath. She was sure to use the bombings to the best of their ability to knock out the ships
"Agreed. The threat of the valley is no more. It would be unwise to not do so"
An army of ~40,000 was to be deployed into the capital, making the total number of Fornirian soldiers in Alssahra ~50,000. The Fornirian Air Force would collaborate on bombing the Sach'aqan Navy. The Fornirian Navy would also send 20 ships as a reinforcement for the devastated East Fleet. All that was left was for Alssahra to agree
Fornoire was gambling high. All it needed was to pay off, or crash hard
