The Bair fighters had been the center of attention for quite some time now. This group of 5 who always executed their prisoners and did not leave any sort of room for their enemies to counterattack was a mystery to everyone else in the tournament. Who was this unheard of group that managed to defeat not one but 2 of the Sun Alliance elder groups as well as numerous other well known groups like the Vesper group headed by their head elder. The appearance of this group was quite surprising as it was almost certainly going to be a victory for the Sun Alliance elder had they not shown up.
The Bair fighters now had the most territory out of all the parties still in the tournament and this fact did not escape the notice anyone. What regular strategists did not know about the two fallen Sun Alliance groups was that they were considered upper tier even for them. This meant that the Bair fighters were even more fearsome than the outsiders of the Sun Alliance could ever imagine.
This gave no end of fear to the remaining Sun Alliance groups. In fact, soon after said event, the remaining 6 Sun Alliance member groups, as well as Wang Yi, Eumenes, and William Bridges from the Yellow Wang faction also joined in on the coalition to get rid of the Bair fighters before they managed to get any more land and resources. This congregation of 7 mighty factions was something that had never been seen before in such a grand fashion.
The 7 of them kept this plan a secret and worked together to plan and make the preparations to see this through to the end. The rest of the groups were just throwing small and mid sized battles at each other not really planning anything big. Bair fighters, on the other hand, were in a state of defense as they reorganized their armies to prepare for another offensive. Being the one with the most land, they had the most resources, and the biggest force to match.
The alliance between the 7 groups consisted mostly of meeting other non member parties to allow them to move their forces through enemy land unimpeded and safely. Planning this attack was no easy task as there were many aerial strategists that were present that all had their own thoughts on how they should proceed and such. Once all that mess got sorted out, they only had to
Finally, the time came for the coalition to launch their all out attack on the Bair fighters came and that's what they did. 7 offensives all launched on the same day from 7 of the best in the tournament all going all out. 7 different battlefields, 7 different directions, 7 powerful forces all doing all in their ability to wipe out the Bair fighters right then and there. The campaign went on in the favor for the coalition for a full month until the unexpected happened.
Evidently the reason that the Bair fighters were on the back foot this whole time was because they sent nearly half of their forces to the coalition's territory and managed to fully take over 3 other lands all within days of each other. This revelation signalled something for the coalition, if it took them a full month to encroach only halfway into the Bair fighters territory when they were at half strength, how were they going to win if the could be flanked any second by a force equal or greater than their own? They couldn't was the answer.
However, they had committed so much resources and firepower into this one large offensive how could they just up and leave without holding a meeting with the other leaders. They rushed to meet each other and soon they had made a decision to disband and go back to their own lands. Except, those who lost their lands had to be absorbed into other groups. One of those groups were Wang Yi and the other two, they had to be folded into the group that was headed by the 4 co-leaders of the Yellow Wang faction. The other 2 groups that had lost their lands could go into any one of their 4 remaining Sun Alliance faction groups. This was another upset that had not been expected.
Who could guess that a coalition made out of 6 or 7 of the top 10 factions in this tournament be unable to stop the Bair fighters. This news reached all the way to Baron's gang and they were in the middle of discussing this matter.
(BM) "This is rather... scary. How could they be so powerful and yet unheard of? Could they be visitors from another community?" Baron asked the Meng duo.
(MT) "I'm not certain, but their performance indicates that they are the most likely to win this tournament. It is possible that they are outsiders since their tactics seem to be a tad more crude yet orchestrated. Though, I'm not too sure about that either." Meng Tian said.
(MY) "I believe that they are from our community, there is elements of Chinese style aerial warfare, but they seem to have incorporated from other styles that seem to be similar to William Bridges from what I have seen from the record playback hall." Meng Yi added.
(BM) Hmm, what worries me is that they are so bold in sending half of their forces away when they knew a mighty coalition was going to strike at them yet chose to do so anyway. Are they mad or are they that much of a tactician that they could do this kind of thing already knowing the results before they even happen."
(MT) "With how this first coalition turned out, it is unlikely that another will form up. It looks like the most important thing for us to do now is just to see how this plays out. We were lucky to have survived this far, I'm unsure of what to do now. On the one hand, it is my belief that the Sun Alliance will just keep expanding until they conquer everybody."
