[quote=@CmdrAlfieq] The captain of the AA convoy proceeds to use that radio frequency and begin with a reasonable conversation. "We are the Militarist Army of the adversaries for wishes to have a small negotiation on attaining a peaceful relations in between our coastal borders. We do not cause any harm nor rotten in a way of retaining neutrality of the nations." said the captain. The destroyer escorts are keeping in a closed formation and protecting the unarmed transport ships from any sudden strikes from those unknown creatures. [/quote] "Alright, " The radio operator responded "You will be escorted towards the nearest port. Please follow the three ships that should be around you. We will be keeping a close eye on you." The radio channel was closed. The radio operator rubbed his eyes. "It's those weird guys from the west again." He said to his colleague sitting on the opposite side of the room, "I want you to go straight to the commander and report this. I will contact the capital to tell them we've got visitors." The other man walked to his commander's office. He knocked twice. "You may come in." Came from inside the room. As soon as the man entered the commander asked "What is the situation?" "The NMR ships have intercepted a convoy with destroyer escorts claiming to be a convoy from the 'Militarist Army'. We suspect they are from the same group of people that landed on our shore a while ago. They say they want to negotiate about something, but I couldn't quite understand what. My colleague already started contacting the capital to ask for one of our diplomats." "Alright then," The commander replied, "Give orders to the NMR ships to escort them to the nearest port. Make sure the shore batteries know they can't shoot at the convoy, but tell them to keep an eye on it in case they do something stupid. Get the diplomat the Khan sends to the port as well." "Yes sir!" The man replied, and he went to do all of those things. Meanwhile the radio operator contacted the capital to tell the news of this new nation, in the capital the Khan made the decision to send the diplomat Stephen Michel as envoy, as he had the most experience with this new unknown nation because he was there when they landed on Khaganate soil. The Creature-like NMR ships slowly started moving in one direction, towards the port where the convoy was supposed to be greeted. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ [h2]Avarga, capital of the Lanist Khaganate[/h2] Stephen Michel, one of the best diplomats of the Lanist Khaganate, had been drinking a cup of hot coffee when he got the call from Khan Yuri Lanist, telling him that he should get to the western coast immediately, even telling which port he was supposed to go to. "Seriously?" Stephen said after he received the news from Yuri Lanist, nearly spitting out his coffee. "Yes, Stephen," Yuri replied, "It seems that the mysterious nation to the west has decided to pay us a visit once again. I do not want this to turn out like last time, so make your way towards the specified location as soon as possible. Understood" "Understood, sir" Stephen said as he hang up the call. He swallowed. [i]This is going to be hard[/i] he thought to himself. He got to the nearest governmental helipad and called for a helicopter. The area around the shore didn't really have any train connection yet, so most transport was done via air. "Get me to port 6" he told the pilot. The helicopter took off and went west, arriving at the port nearly an hour later. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ [h2]Landship [i]Leviathan Alpha[/i][/h2] The landship fleet slowly withdrew from the crater created by the thermonuclear bomb. They were already far away enough to be unaffected by the fireball, air blast and radiation from the nuke. General Nurzhan had sent the relief force away to the south again, and the Omega Order's Flaming Army and Anvil Regiment were going back to Site 5. Doom Squad and Phalanx Alpha were still on board, currently patrolling the landship to find any more of the alien creatures they were fighting but an hour ago. General Nurzhan was with General Anderson in one of the many interrogation rooms the landship had for interrogating people that they captured when conquering towns and villages. He was sitting on the opposite side of the table of General Anderson. "So what happened for you to get in a situation so dire that required both me and the Omega Order to help you?" Arman asked. Katie, still slightly in shock from the terrifying event she had been in earlier, replied "Well, I had received a map from an old tribal chief, who claimed it would lead me to great treasure, as long as we let them surrender." "And it didn't occur to you that this may have been a trick and the chieftain didn't want his entire tribe to be slaughtered because they tried actively fighting back?" Arman said, his voice slowly getting louder. "No! I thought I could've retrieved the treasure and brought it back home to give it to the Khaganate." "You do realise that you brought the entire landship, the fleet and its crew in grave danger do you? Do you even know why we built these landships in the first place? As a general you should!" General Nurzhan was now shouting. Katie shrank from his sudden outburst "Yes, I mean no" she replied. In truth she did know, she had learned it at the Khaganate Military Academy of course, but she was too stressed to think properly at the moment. Arman spoke calmer now, seeing the effect of his loud voice on the general sitting on the other side of the table "The landships are there to serve as a rallying point to the rest of the Khaganate army. It's supposed to inspire hope into the rest of the soldiers and instill fear in the foes we want to surrender, so there will be no further bloodshed. On these massive threads there's more than just weapons and armor. There are also many munition depots, medical stations, communication equipment and everything that's needed for the landship fleet logistics so long campaigns can be maintained without extremely lengthy supply lines. In the lower levels there are garages to repair the tanks and IFVs. From it generals like you can command armies over an entire continent. We had to get in four Omega Order task forces here to save the remains of your fleet and the landship. They should not be used for personal gain. Do you understand?" "Yes, sir" Katie said, although she was technically higher in rank than him because she was in command of a landship fleet, an honour not many of the Khaganate's generals have been given. "Good. I'll be going back to the south now. You may go whenever you feel like it, general." Arman said. With those words he stood up and left, getting back to his army and going back to the southern front. General Katie Anderson put her hands on her face and wept for a while.
