Chapter 3 - Display of power

0400 hours January 10 2940 AD location: blackflower valley

Captain Moore and his wife are in bed sleeping until their bedroom door was practically blasted open by Sargent Collins as he rushed into the room.

"sir we have an army of 500,000 troops approaching from the southwest our scouts suspect it's the elven federation."

"Well don't just stand there good friend. prepared to show them what mere 1,000,000 troops of the u.s can do."

0800 hours

"Sir the troops are in position, we are just waiting for your command."

"Thank you Sargent."

(30 minutes later)

Hundreds of green banners are flying from the adjacent hill. and as fast as they arrive a war trumpet is blown and a sea of men in clad armor rush over the hill. and into the valley below. Captain Moore blows his trench whistle and an Ocean of black rush over the hill and into the valley to get into their positions. The sea of green approaches the U.S soldiers. 2 lines of the U.S steps forward; each line has 1,000 soldiers per line. The line stretches as long as 5 footballFields. The first line consists of soldiers all equipped with a huge box backpack and a M-134 minigun. In the second line is a mix of m-4's and XL-15 flamethrowers.

The sea of green is roughly 600 yards when the miniguns start to spin up and begin to hose down the sea of men. with a wall of lead and steel; hundreds die a second as the miniguns rip through thousands of rounds a minute. Bodies begin to fall upon one another the ground of the valley slowly being Painted with the bodies of the fallen.

Suddenly the elven commanders hear thunder coming from the distance. The morning clouds were gray and overcast with the world around the battlefield gloomy and dark. The screams of death echo in the gloomy morning air as the thunder of artillery and guns shred the elven troops to pieces.

At this point in the battle the valley is nothing more than a sea of blood and corpses. the elven commanders looked at the horrific site of this mass slaughter. and watch as thare troops where blown to bits and and cut down like wheat to a Sieth. Captain Moore stands within the front line of his forces commanding the slaughter.

A valley that was once filled with greenery and Beauty now stained with the blood of the fallen. The grass that once was green is now black. skeletons were bodies of the fallen lay. Within 3 hours of small arms and heavy artillery fire the elven federation 1st regiment was brought to their knees with 400,000 killed and 90,000 wounded/given Mercy, 9,000 retreated from combat.

The elven commanders look at the battlefield with worry in their eyes, chard bodies and skeletons stretch across the battlefield. The amount of bodies that cover the ground are to the point where not a blade of grass can be seen in the valley. One of the elven commanders makes a comment as he watches as flamethrowers burn all of the bodies of the fallen army "this is not war this is hell." The captain next to the commander spoke "sir we have 2 more regiments the 2nd and the 3rd are ready to March on thare capital as we speak do we continue with our assault or retreat."

" Captain, send the command to retreat if the enemy can slaughter us this easily in the open than attacking their capital with the amount of soldiers we have now Would be a waste of resources. We will need roughly 1,500,000 just to attempt to attack thare capital and we still might lose. I bet 50 gold coins that army is at least 2 million strong."

"Ok sir I bet 30 gold coins 4 million strong."

Captain Moore stands upon a Liet tank overlooking the withdrawal of his army from the field of battle standing beside him is Alice Who Was panting heavily and flush red with a face full of pleasure she eventually can't hold herself back and tackles Moore throwing them both off the tank and to the ground.

"James can't fight it anymore I'm slowly losing all sense of reasoning please I begged you help stop it here and now."

"Not here Alice, we are in the Middle of a battlefield. We can finally satisfy your needs tonight."

"No James I can't wait that long, there is too much death, all of my nerves and senses are so sensitive at the moment it would feel amazing right now."

This got Moore thinking he doesn't have to do a whole lot to satisfy her. But the last thing Moore wants is one of his troops to find them in the middle of doing anything with his wife on a devastated battlefield; they would think he was mentally insane or so he thought. But before he could come up with a plan Alice pushed him to the ground and began to kiss him. Moore struggles to get her off of him; his squirming and struggling made Alice feel even more pleasure. Moore grabbed Alice's waist and pushed her off his crotch. Moore began to get up but Alice grabbed his arm pulling him on top of her where she locked lips with him. He tries to resist but to no avail thankfully a soldier was on patrol and happened to stumble into the site of the to making out he noticed his commanders distress so he interrupted the pashanit display. " sir I have finished my patrol and have found a few stragglers of what remains of the 1st elven regiment most of the scouts have reported pop shots by crossbow men." The trooper reports

Alice let's Moore get up. Moore walks to the trooper and grabs him by the shoulder and walks off Moore whisper's " thank you for getting me out of that ordeal" into the trooper ear before vanishing into the rising sun

Miles away from the battlefield the hie council sits around a table in a castle

The council president is in a fit of rage after getting the report that the 1st Guardianship regiment was defeated resulting in 490,000 dead and among the dead are 2 of his sons and to make matters worse the other regiments were routed without entering combat which only added to his rage.

A messager stands in front of the hie council informing the council of the battle and what he witnessed first hand " so boy on with it. What happened." One of the council members ordered

"Yes sir, sir… the battle was a bloodbath. And I mean that you could literally be up to your knees in blood In some places. we had to crawl over a sea of bodies just to get into crossbow range. the heavy Knights that got close enough to their lines. were burned alive in their armor. their armor and flesh melted from their bones as they screamed for thare mother's and wished and prayed for a faster death. The light infantry and Levies were slaughtered by explosions from the sky. Our battle wizards were all killed before they could cast a single spell. Our arrows bounce of thare armor and the numbers of them are overwhelming. We brought 500,000 men, they brought 1,000,000 men and our commander thinks our enemy has over 3 million troops, that's my report."

The council looks at each other and looks back at the soldier and back at one another all the council members huddle in a group and while whispering the soldier yet to be dismissed listens closely. He could only hear a single voice and it said.

"What have we done?"
