Gra Valkas information bureau,
The row of electronic receivers beeped continuously , one might mistake them for morse codes, but they emitted an new and an secure enigma codes for the imperial spies,
"your excellency, We got news from our informant in Rodenius and an intresting update"
"in brief?"
"The Lourian invasion of Qua-Toyne has failed due to the intervention of the 'central powers' particularly Austro-Hungarian empire and the German Empire arming the elves with rifles, alongside the two empires capturing the capital, the royal family is deposed and the nation partitioned"
"what?"
the man addressed as 'your excellency ' raised his eyebrows, he was always satisfied with the reports and left the work to his underlings and simply took responsibility if shit went wrong
"but shouldn't have the Lourians overwhelm the Elves and take over the continent? I have never heard of these 'German empire' and 'Austro-Hungarian empire' and the 'central powers', but what do we know about them?"
"after, the central powers, made contact with the elves they somehow armed the elves with rifles and standard small arms and pre dreadnought battleships, and stationed over 100,000 troops in qua toyne in exchange for mineral access and food imports, only 8 of their ships estimated to consist of battleships, cruisers and escort carriers wiped out the lourian's fleet of 4400 ships"
'what?"
"their battleships are less than 45,000 tons with being armed with 13 or 14 inch guns , we could not tell, but according to witnesses, planes, tanks and artillery were present during battle of Jin-Hark, their tanks are estimated armaments between 20mm to 50mm at best and being inferior to our own tanks and slower bombers and fighter craft, we judge that they might possess moderate level of threat to us" said the officer, not knowing he had been fed false intel by the Gestapo on older equipment
"I see, seems like they might too be transported to this world, by some magic shit, based on your reports of battleships less than 35,000 tons and weak planes and tanks, they are strong, just not enough to challenge us any time sooner and won't be an hinderance to our larger goals"
"what about the Leifor fleet?"
"The national oversight fleet and army had resupplied some hours ago, and be fit for combat soon, but the admiral was whimsical on not liking to use air carriers against petty barbarians, and prefer to send an single super-dreadnought"
"in this world, one dreadnought is enough to become an legend"
Mu continent, western seas, Second civilization superpower, Leifor
The 43 ships of the Leiforian fleet sailed forward , led by HLMS Leifor (imagine MN Danton)
