"Damn it! When did those blasted Australasians land?" Brigadier Mikuni, commander of the Type C Division stationed near the Harbor, furiously demanded.
His division had just received a telegram that the Harbor had been bombed by Australasian airplanes, and had been attacked by a large number of Australasian Soldiers. Most of the Harbor area had already fallen under the control of the Australasians.
Although Mikuni was one of the few brigadiers among the division commanders, this did not mean he was not a high-ranking officer of the Island Nation. He was, of course, also aware of the importance of the Harbor to all the Island Nation Army on the Ryukyu Islands—it was the only hope for a retreat and the only escape route for all the Islander Soldiers.
Once the news of the Harbor's fall became known to the Soldiers, a decrease in morale was inevitable. Once morale dropped significantly, facing another Australasian attack would not be so easy to handle.
