The Battle of Montrebeau was a major confrontation during the Great Northern Aquilonis War, and one of the first battles of the Allied Liberation of Soleil.
Prelude
Planning of didn't begin until the actual invasion. Days prior, half-mermaid abjaksan of Maritymir, Naiʻa Palakiko, was sent to Clairiere Province to inform the rebels, who had been harassing the occupying Umdari for months, that an allied invasion was coming. Nai'a found the rebels in Nordeaux quickly enough, and they worked to expel as many Umdari soldiers from the town as possible before the allies arrived.
Three days later, the allies arrived under cover of night, and as the troops came ashore, leaders got together to plan their assault on the island's capital, Montrebeau.
Battle
Day 1
The first day of battle began with the placement of troops. The Alliance placed their troops parallel to the Umdari army. Once everyone was in place, preliminary bombardment began. Umdar returned fire, but it wasn't as effective as the allies. After 40 minutes, Umdar sent a group of Soul-Wraiths on the two Transylvanian airships, causing all action on both sides to halt. A group of Yamato kajihito led by Princess Sugako went up to help, but they were too late. The Soul-Wraiths had kissed most of the crew on both ships, leaving only two survivors.
Once the Soul-Wraiths were gone, cannon-fire recommenced, and Umdar also sent out a group of Mountain Trolls, but they were easily repelled.
With the entire army shaken by the appearance of Soul-Wraiths, the allied army backed off for the day.
