Eva-Beatrice Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 (edited) The fighting in China and Vampiria's continued aggressive expansion had put the leaders of the other countries on high alert. Aside from minor border skirmishes, the battlefield had remained pretty quiet. It wasn't because the other countries had been doing nothing, however. In truth, they had been spending their time drafting up plans and building up their militaries, waiting for the next major development in this war. In the Demon Army: King Satan, General Alciel, and General Lucifer were gathered in the throne room, discussing their next move in the war. In the time since the demons were driven out of northeast China, they had spent their time regrouping and defending their border from attacks by the vampires. "The vampires have begun mobilizing again, both in the south and closer to home in Hebei province. The more they're allowed to expand, the easier it will be for them to overwhelm us. I suggest expanding our borders in mainland China, but not so much as to overextend ourselves." Alciel said towards King Satan. "Indeed. We will be in trouble if we continue to fight defensively. What's more, we could be dealing with a war on two fronts at any given time. For now, we don't have to worry about an incursion by the humans from the south on the Korean peninsula thanks to that ice wall. With that said, it seems increasingly obvious that the next stages of this war will take place in China. Alciel, I'll have you and your army see to expanding into Henan province as well as the remainder of Shandong. Hopefully we can halt Vampiria's advance southward at the Hebei-Henan border." "Yes, my king!" Alciel replied. "Lucifer, continue to reinforce our northern border. Report any additional military buildup by Vampiria in the region." Lucifer nodded. "Understood." In the Human Alliance: General Esdeath was briefing the Jaegers and Night Raid on the Human Alliance's next steps following a discussion on the current state of the war. "It is time for us to go on the offensive. With Vampiria's latest expansion, it seems likely that they'll end up battling the Demon Army again sooner rather than later. If this does happen, we will take full advantage and launch an attack from the south, forcing the demons to fight on two fronts. To help us in the upcoming encounters with the Demon Army, we will be relying on new recruits Crestia Bel and Emilia Justina, as they share great familiarity with the Demon Army's top leaders." The pair steps forward, saluting the general. ""We will give it our all!"" Esdeath continues. "With any luck, we can drive the demons out of China, which would make it extremely difficult for them to do any meaningful damage throughout the remainder of the war. The second stage of this war will take place in China, and so that is where we will focus most of our resources. It is also very likely that we will encounter the vampires for the first time in this conflict. As we speak, the Human Alliance is training an elite team specifically for combating vampires. Once things pick up, they will accompany the Army and the rest of you until such time that conflict with Vampiria begins. In the meantime, we will be marching west into Anhui province. The Chinese Communist Party has taken control in the region, and so we will be taking them out. Am I understood?" Everyone replied in unison. "Yes, ma'am!" In Mariage Sorciere: The Witch Council had just concluded a similar discussion regarding the current state of the war. Beatrice spoke first. "As of now, the other countries do not seem too concerned with us. Other than basic naval defense, they are paying us no mind." Eva nodded. "They will learn before too long that this was a mistake. Bernkastel has stationed her army in Hokkaido. We are ready to invade Vampiria at any time. Until then, we should see to it that any pests who may try to crawl their way into our affairs have nowhere to go. It's been a concern from the very beginning that Macau and Hong Kong could become a liability if foreign powers use them as a stepping stone. Let's extinguish that possibility today. Send word to our forces in Hainan to launch an attack on the mainland. They will be pushing into Guangxi and Guangdong, and surrounding the city-state."
