A Story Of A Country That Got Isekai'd

Chapter 119 - Plethora of Beasts

KINGDOM OF AZALEA
CAPITAL CITY OF CYMUTH

"LEAD THE TARGET!", "FIRE!" Captain Zandre Erdal of the Airship Svernard shouted out loud towards his newly recruited 'sailors'.

The very same airship that intercepted the Cardonian delegation months back. Supposedly designed as a scouting and patrol ship it's small dimension that enables it to have unparalleled speed and agility were at full use navigating above the tight streets and avenues of the city, it is acting as sort of a helicopter gunship.

*BOO..OMM*

A barrage of small cannons from the Azalean airship rocked the skies above the now besieged Capital City of Cymuth. 

Their volley of fire rained down upon the pack of demonic beasts currently laying waste to the medieval industrial city.

Both infrastructure and beasts were hit by their 2 pounder guns. Their 40mm rounds inflicted heavy casualties to the melee armed beasts but at the same time caused several collateral damage.

The airships guns weren't really rated against land targets, as such the poor performance.

"LOAD MAGIC ARROWS" Captain Erdal once again barked. He saw how their cannons weren't enough to slow down the large wave of beasts probably heading towards one of their infantry defensive lines.

The mostly Elven crew promptly responded to the new orders and prepared their ballista like looking launcher.

"FIRE!"

*ppzzzzzzhhhooommmm*

Dozens of small rocket like devices exited the launchers, these are specially designed rounds against infantry. Compared to their bigger cousins that primarily used against peer opponents that can only be guided one at a time by an Elven gunner. These rockets could be fired in salvoes and can be guided in a specific circular area.

It is magical technology that can be sufficiently said mimic that of the modern technology that Cardonia possesses. But of course these magic weapons have more limited damage and effect, such these weapons aren't really comparable.

Being an Elven race most of the citizens are trained from childhood the basics of the bow and arrow. As such mos joined the soldiers armed with their bolt action like rifles in defending against the waves and waves of monsters spreading like a virus inside the city.

Confusion and chaos then fuelled the now frantic civilians as one by one they were being encircled by the beasts.

...

FORTRESS LINDIA

Overlooking the whole capital from the high cliffs, these large series of fortifications serves now as the center of the Azalean defenses. Cannons that were once pointed out towards the seas are now aimed at the city it was designed to protect.

Dozens of airships also hover nearby as the ports were compromised with the sudden appearance of the demonic beasts.

Dozens of billowing black smoke can be clearly observed from the now command center wherein the Royal Family was evacuated when the Palace were immediately compromised by the beasts.

The North Eastern side of the fortress were already under attack as such the loud bangs of the large anti ship cannon could be heard echoing all around the Capital. The loud booms of the high caliber guns sounds like a horn of war from afar.

"ARE YOU SURE THAT THE DYLASLANS AREN'T BEHIND THIS?!" A General done in pure white jacket loudly questioned the two military officers giving situational report.

"YES SIR!", "We received communications that even Dylasla isn't safe from the ongoing chaos." Answered the two shaking officers. It is not just the Generals they were afraid of, but the King himself and the Crown Prince were listening to their report on the other side of the large rectangle table.
