Three months after the Liberation Amry’s victory at Pannu Yakuta, Flik returns with what few forces he has in tow. But it would seem he’s not too happy to learn that Mir is in charge of the Liberation Army, and that Odessa was killed in his absence. But with Flik’s remaining men locked away by the Empire, there’s little he can hope to achieve without joining forces with Mir’s forces.
A record of the first battle of Scarleticia Castle
The Liberation Army’s campaign against Milich Oppenheimer started with two separate battles; the first took place at the fortress of Garan. Without an acting general, the Scarlet Moon Empire was defeated easily. The second battle, however, was a quick loss for the Liberation Army. Due to the poisonous flowers guarding Scarleticia Castle, the Liberation Army lost most of their active soldiers in a single attack. This pollen attack would lead the Liberaion Army to search for doctor Liukan.
Scarlet Moon Soldiers (Garan): 6,000
Scarlet Moon Soldiers (Scarleticia): 12,000

In charge of Scarleticia Castle is the renowned General Milich Oppenheimer. His numerous hobbies include growing flowers, and his skill in botany had produced monstrous poison flowers capable of killing humans in seconds. Milich will deploy his Poisonous Pollen attack with no hesitation, rending an army before they have time to react. Thanks to this move, Scarleticia Castle remained untouchable without preventative action.
Liberation Army Soldiers: 8,135 (This many soldiers were present at the start of both battles.)

The fortress of Garan was ill prepared for an attack by the Liberation Army. They were outnumbered and outmatched. All 6,000 of the Empire’s deployed soldiers were killed in battle, while the Liberation Army only saw 1,116 casualties.
Quickly able to refresh their soldiers, the Liberation Army decided to attack Scarleticia immediately. Despite the Liberation Army’s ambush, Milich had an impenetrable defense thanks to his Poisonous Pollen attack. The Liberation Army suffered a loss of 6,508 men, while the Imperial Army’s 12,000 men saw no casualties. With no clear way to pass, the Liberation Army was forced to retreat.
