Chapter 48

Map of the Surrounding Countries During the Invasion of the Meierd Principality

The Haiselk Empire's army, advancing from three directions, captured various cities and converged just before the capital of the Meierd Principality, Eidenberg.

After defeating the Meierd-Felius Alliance in the decisive battle, the Haiselk Empire annexed Meierd, except for the Selta territory, a peninsula jutting out into Lake Selta.

The Felius Kingdom's expeditionary force, which had been dispatched, retreated to the mainland but lost more than half of its forces due to the fierce pursuit by the Haiselk Empire's army.

The border fortresses, significantly depleted of their garrison, fell without fully functioning, and the southern territories of Felius were occupied by the Haiselk Empire's army.

The counterattack by the Four-Nation Alliance began. The main force of the alliance army advanced into the territory of the Meierd Principality from the Felius Kingdom by land. In addition to the harassment attacks by the Meierd navy on Lake Selta and the pressure on the Haiselk Empire's mainland from the Liberatoa mainland, these actions were carried out.

The Haiselk Empire abandoned the occupied territories of the Felius Kingdom, adopted a delay tactic, and fortified the old Meierd border fortifications, aiming for a war of attrition.

The Four-Nation Alliance, suffering repeated attrition and a fatal surprise attack, abandoned the direct assault on the Sarajevo fortress and its bastions, and shifted to a scorched earth strategy using black water, led by the Liberatoa Commercial Federation.

Since there were many requests for the map, I pulled out my personal copy.

Individual battlefields take a lot of time to produce, so I only included the border areas.

I drew the map on my smartphone, so it's a bit rough, but please bear with it.
