Edit Reason: changed east to west

Elsewhere
The push to the west was succesfull, as was keeping the sudden intervention at bay, for now.
Fightning was hard but the soyabarians had been here before, many of them being veterans in the war with the Svarnans. They tought they never see war again and now they were here again. But now they had the help of loyal zealmarkians in their ranks which had been recruited in the years since the Soysva war. Soyabarians are a tough bunch, morale had taken a dive since the sudden intervention. But the avarage soldier knew why he was fightning, for the emperor, the commonwealth, for their homes and families thousands of kilometers away.
They knew they had to kill every enemy, usurpers, invaders or any other as it may be coming to haunt them later they couldn't surrender to this threat the army was allowed too without permission from the emperor if it was utterly defeated, but the ILL was a totally different case, they were allowed to tactically retreat but never surrender. In any war they fought they fought to the last man, or woman in the latest decades.
Retrieved bodies from the IIL that were defeated in battle, one person could many times be found (if they were not all killed in action) with a bulletwound in the right temple rather than surrender to the enemy. Such was their devotion to emperor and country.
Drassari
Now that New heers was captured, the next objective was to move to Drassari, an airport that as often used as the headquarters of the New Zealmarkian airforce. Even housing civilian flights, passenger and cargo. Now it laid in enemy hands and it was to vital to let it stay that way for long. An entire regiment of 5500 infantary was able to be scrambled from elsewhere, 1500 of which were from the IIL. A dozen of artillery pieces were also brought along but due tough the rough terrain (jungle space) they had to be carried by horses and donkeys levied by the army from the local population, given the circumstances they recieved immidiate compensation for it.
The commanding officer estimated that the enemy could not have advanced technology at it hands so it would be better like this. They were laying in ditches preparing for a charge
