Our training was solid; our Bands were good to the core.
The scouts came in with Reports of Killing, raping and looting, and that this was continuing throughout the land of “La France”.
Word was quickly sent back to the “Blue” and the Council.
It was the French that need the most help, and fast. The rampaging Germans were decimating them. We had pledged our alliance to our friends many years before. We would be there to help them.
Dieppe; such a beautiful township on the bay of the great water.
“Blue” Holly took her Bands on their own journey into hell. The hills to the south would need to be taken to ensure the strategic ownership of Dieppe. Two Axe Bands were sent straight through the hills, like a hot blade through cold butter. The Horse Bands simultaneously charged the Township, with this leaving the third Axe Band in Reserve with the Field Bands.
The fighting was hard, very intense in places, yet the Horse and Axe vanquished the shocked Germans.
At the end of the Battle, “Blue” Holly found herself to be the Governor of a French Beachside resort town. At this time, the Axe and Field Bands gathered and assisted in garrisoning the town and getting the fields and mines operating again.
A Horse Band was set on a circular patrol, with the other two Horse Bands in Reserve, never too far apart. The scout bands were sent to secure the road into Dieppe for the Third column, which at this time was only a week away.
Back home, a full mobilization was under way. “Blue” had provided the council with evidence of French townships in Ruins, of people displaced and wandering the countryside, of Germanic units destroying roads and fields.
WAR was declared……………………..

Very good read! I hope you continue!
NB: It is "La France" and not "Le France", as suggested in another post.
