**Guarding the Rhine III** (ラインの護りIII) is the fifth chapter of Youjo Senki Manga.

## Summary

A few pages to recap the story so far before jumping into the preparation for the rescue operation. Visha coming straight from the capital has an outdated computational jewel compared to those on the front-line. The team passes a comment about how the type-95 Elinium of Tanya looks holy and makes her seem like an apostle of God.

When the 3rd flight lead by Tanya reached the front lines the observers were eliminated, Rescue operation was a failure. Tanya thus makes the call to cleanup the exhausted Republic mages and attain the title of Ace (50 confirmed kills). Tanya displayed her full superiority of the type-95 jewel by fighting at an altitude of 12'000 feet (note the normal mage height is 6'000 feet).

Tanya eliminated most of the Republic named mages (note named mages are those whose mana signature can be recognized and have at least 5 kills). Her large spell was recorded by a lone Republican jewel and returned to Parisii where they pray to God for help against her.

Legadonia Entente Alliance

Flag of Legadonia

**Legadonia Entente Alliance (レガドニア協商連合)** is a country located in the north of the Empire. Legadonia claims the territory of Norden, which is under the Empire's control. Mountains make up large parts of the country's landscapes.

## Government

The highest government body of the Entente Alliance is the Council of Ten. While not directly explained, the council is probably more similar to a cabinet than a parliament, due to the full titles of the councilors.

Before the story began, the Entente Alliance was facing the sluggish economy, the widening wealth inequality, and the unemployment rate that refused to fall. Those finally led to the change in administration, and a nationalistic government came into power. In June, 1923, the Entente Alliance marched into Norden, which they consider rightfully theirs, but was soundly defeated by the Empire, who declared war in response.

By November 4, 1924, the government that was responsible for the war had been replaced, but the new government could barely resist the Empire's advance. Following the loss of Osfjord on December 1, the Council of Ten tried to create a government-in-exile abroad by sending Councilor Abensoll to Albion, but was cut short when Tanya's 203rd Battalion intercepted the submarine he got on.

## Military Strength

### Army

The Legadonia Army was far weaker than the Imperial one. Just fighting a regional army group of the Empire took most of their national power to maintain the front lines.

### Navy

They only have 2 capital ships. Based on the words from Anson, an Entente Alliance mage colonel, their navy was only a slightly thicker-skinned version of a coast guard. Even a handful of their submarines went on their periodic deep-sea exercise before the outbreak of war, and were thought of as warships by neutral countries, disarmed embarrassingly at last. In spite of the lack of naval strength, they still used some patrol boats to build a patrol line in their coasts.

### Air Force

Legadonia is considered a developing country in the mage department, so their amount of mage are few, but to compensate for the short supply, the ones they do have are elites. Their mages were all in composite units, so a lot depended on the quality and personality of the commander. They tended to use mages more for aerial operations as reinforcing their air force, which was somewhat lacking in muscle.

## Trivia

* Legadonia's location corresponds to real-life Sweden and Norway.
* On the maps that show up in the background of the anime, the country's name shows up as "Legadonia entente union" in a highly stylized font.
* The name of Legadonia contains the word \* League \* in Italian.

## Notes

1. ↑ The Councilors of Foreign Affairs, Internal Affairs, and the Army were mentioned in Norden I, and the Councilor of Culture was mentioned in The Devil in the Coast of Norden.
Army Group Southern Continent

## Formation

Due to the establishment of Free Republic, the Empire needed to deal with them in order to suppress the resistance in Republic mainland to do so the Empire sent an army corps made up of 2 divisions and a support unit to Southern Continent

## Summary

Tanya and Viktoriya were having a momentary talk when suddenly Tanya spaces out before answering Viktoriya's inquires. Making dark expressions and laughing, this terrifies Viktoriya as she began to call for Tanya a couple of times but it still didn't wake her up from her thoughts. After a few attempts, calling Tanya, she finally gets back to her senses and realizing she had probably scared Viktoriya with her sudden change of grim emotions. To fix this, Tanya suddenly brings up Eintopf , which they gather they are going to have it for dinner. To put a proper reason for Tanya's unexpected expression, she states there will be twice as more of sausages for it tonight. This relieved and excites Viktoriya.

Eventually, both of them started to laugh endlessly, for different reasons.

Severin Vianto

**Severn Vianto** is the Captain of the 2nd Mage Company of the Francois Republic. His Mage Company is famous as the elite Special Forces.

## Personality

He has a patriotic characteristics and always carried his job properly. He has a rough tongue, but he cares and respects his fellows and comrades-in-arms.

## Plot

In novel, in May 4, 1925, his mage company along with the other fellow units landed Arene City to support the anti-Empire uprising. Originally, they planned to resist the Imperial anti-riot forces such as military for a few days. After the Imperial Western Army Group ran out of the reserves due to the interruption of logistic, the Republic Army will pull off a major counterattack to push up the front lines. However, the Imperial General Staff acted more fast than they expected. The Imperial gained the permission to send military fores into the city and control it. Few days after their landing, the Imperial reserve troops, mage, artillery, and bomber units had prepared to eliminate the Republican militia and mages defending the city. Vianto and his fellows fought hard against Imperial 203rd Mage Battalion over the city yet lost. Their mages were forced to hide in the buildings and streets to delay the enemy's suppression acts, never expecting Imperial Army would interpret the laws and simply burn out the whole city to save time. The Arene citizens took refuge in and around Karelian Cathedral, and many Republic mages decided to protect the citizens but not flee. There is nothing about how he ended in volume 2.

In the manga, he gave his damaged operation orb to two Albion intelligence agents while he was being treated in a field hospital after the disastrous Battle of Arene. The agents hoped to find evidence of the Imperial Army's war crimes from the orb's recordings, but they found that the insurgents were in the wrong for executing captives. Later, Erya killed the Albion agent with the orb during Operation Shock and Awe and took it from his body.

In volume 3, he and the few mages escaped from Arene and went back to the Republic. Their operation to damage the Empire's rear was thought of as the reason of the Imperial Army's huge retreat, but they were transferred away the fierce front lines and the colonies next. Though Vianto was furious at his brass and complained with his fellow officers, he got the permission to deliver some luxury goods such as cigarettes and wines to the front lines. However, he beheld the breakout of Operation Lock Pick and was asked to send the alert to the rear by his respected division commander Michalis.

During Operation Ark, his mage unit flied from Parisii to the coastal waters of Brest. His op mage unit was high rated by Major General de Lugo. Later, he served in the Free Republican Army and took part in the Southern Battle.

Silver Wings Assault Medal

* Silver Wings Assault Medal in anime
* Silver Wings Assault Medal in manga
* Silver Wings Assault Medal in Light Novel
1/3The medal that is said to be one of the highest if not the highest distinction the Empire could offer to their soldiers. Reserved solely for an individual who fought bravely under perilous conditions, the most unique aspect of this medal was the fact that majority of its recipients were already deceased. The bar was set so high that in regulation it was said that the only representation that could be shown in place of the rifle and the hat of the deceased is the Silver Wings Assault Medal.

Because of this, regardless of the recipient's rank, it was deemed appropriate for both officers and soldiers from all ranks to show them respect.

### Silver Wings Assault Badge with Oak Leaves

Silver Wings Assault Badge with Oak Leaves can be considered to be the highest award in the military.

## Recipients

* Second Lieutenant Tanya von Degurechaff
Magna Rumeli

**Magna Rumelli** is the nation that limits to the north with Dacia, to the northwest with the Empire and to the south with the Turkish Principalities. According to the light novel, the Magna Rumelli nation has colonies in Africa.

This country consists of southern Balkans and Anatolia according to the maps in the anime, but has never been mentioned elsewhere. The maps of the LN and manga also shows an unlabeled country in the same area, although much smaller than the Magna Rumeli in the anime.

## Trivia

* The word Rumelli is likely a reference to the historic Ottoman province of Rumelia (Turkish: *Rumeli*) which referred to Thrace (European part of Turkey and Northeastern Greece) and modern-day Bulgaria
Youjo Senki Episode 7

Battle of Fjord (フィヨルドの攻防) is the 7thEpisode of the Youjo Senki anime.

## Summary

At the Legadonia Entente Alliance Port Arnelus, Colonel Anson Sioux farewells his daughter as he leaved to take command of the relatively quiet Orse Fjord.

Meanwhile at the Imperial Army Northern Theater Command Strategy Conference, Tanya proposes a strategic retreat, to resupply Imperial forces instead of a futile short-term offensive. She deduces that it is a diversion for Empire forces to launch a sea offensive.

The Empire decides to send the Mage Battalion to launch a surprise attack at the heavily defended Orse Fjord in advance of their North Sea Fleet. During the attack they are intercepted by a Battalion-sized unit of mages led by Colonel Sioux.

Tanya leads a small group to intercept while the others destroy the defensive cannons allowing the fleet to land and take control of the railroads. In a final confrontation, Tanya shoots and bayonets Colonel Sioux who falls into the sea.

## Trivia

* To reach the Orse Fjord, the Mage Battalion is shown using what appears to be a Messerschmitt Me 323 *Gigant*, the largest land-based transport aircraft of World War II. A single Me 323 was capable of carrying up to 130 troops, making it more than capable of transporting the entire Mage Battalion.
Youjo Senki Episode 9

**Prepare to Advance** (前進準備) is the 9thEpisode of the Youjo Senki anime.

## Summary

Few days later after the battle at Arene, Tanya meets Major Uger who tells her of a plan to withdraw Imperial forces on the Rhine front to draw the Republic forces into a trap.

Hans von Zettour proposed this plan at the Command Strategy Conference and arranged to use Tanya’s Mage Battalion to fight a rearguard action.

While the Empire spreads rumors of a large-scale assault, Lieutenant Colonel Erich von Rerugen tells Tanya that the plan for the second phase "Shock and Awe" is to take out the Republic command headquarters and communication system.

Doctor Schugal announces a new high-speed rocket weapon, the V-1, to be guided by the mages to the three potential locations of the enemy headquarters.

Meanwhile the Republic forces confidently begin their advance into the area vacated by the Imperial troops.

## Trivia

* The V-1s depicted are similar to those used during World War II, aside from a few notable differences; they're powered by five engines as opposed to one, the fuel is hydrogen rather than petroleum, and the units serve as high-speed, long-range transports for mages instead of cruise missiles. The mages are carried internally, occupying a crude cockpit located just behind the nose-mounted warhead.
Kurst von Walhorf/Relationships

## Tanya Degurechaff

He was assigned as part of her platoon after graduating from Cadet Corps. In Light Novel, due to admonishment of his status as volunteer by Tanya, he acted rebellious against her. He was re-assigned by Schwarzkopf togerther with Harald von Vist.

In anime, he was shown to be dissatisfied of Tanya's leadership and presumably have some bias against her due to her young age.

## Harald von Vist

He was a classmate from the same wing due to their status as volunteer, so they were also a pair due to their familiarity. Not much shown about their relationshipin Light Novel and Manga.

Anime depicted their dynamic as a pair of like minded comrades, and Kurst appear to be the one who call the shot in their partnership. This could be seen from how Harald followed Kurst in his reckless charge against Tanya's order, and later on supporting his protest for their dismissal.

## Viktoriya Ivanovna Serebryakov

In Light Novel and Manga, they're not very familiar because they belong to different wing because of his volunteer status. Not much interaction shown in either media.

In anime they are classmates and have some degree of familiarity enough for Visha to be worried of their absence. While they weren't close, Kurst was civil enough to tell Visha that she had to eat to replenish herself even if she was tired.

**How to Use a Victory** (勝利の使い方) is the 12thEpisode of the Youjo Senki anime.

## Summary

While the Empire celebrates the truce, that could finally lead to an armistice. Tanya went to the Main Headquarters to talk to the general staffs. She was confronted by Erich von Rerughen. Tanya on contrary explains her being aware of the fact that it's just a matter of time for the war to still continue and start again, since the Republic and all other nations will never allow the Empire to become the most powerful country in Europe: but according to her thoughts and ideologies, refusing to admit defeat and keep fighting no matter the consequences is simply part of the human nature.

In fact, the Empire's overwhelming growth finally pushes the remaining superpowers of the World (the Allied Kingdom, the Russy Federation and the Unified States) to form an alliance agains the common enemy, and when General Lugo from Tunis proclaims the birth of the Free Republic it becomes clear to the Empire's citizens and soldiers that the war is far from over.

While the battles begin once again, Tanya and her squad are sent in Africa to fight against the Free Republic, and while haraunging her men Tanya tells them that the war is the proof that God has failed, and that the power to influence mankind is now in the hands of the Man and, especially, of the soldiers, once again launching her challenge against Being X.

Meanwhile, in the Unified States Mary, Sioux's daughter (blessed with Being X's power), joins to the American army in search for vengeance for her father's death.

Being X/Relationships

## Tanya von Degurechaff

Due to her being Atheist, he reincarnated her as a girl and forced her to become his prophet carrying a relic with a blessing coming from him. His goal is to make her and humanity acknowledge and praise his name as their **Creator**.

He goes into objects and dead bodies to force her to accept him as her creator, only to turn to taunting her. And also for her to have a undying hatred for him, destroying anything he goes into to satisfy her hatred.

Unfortunately, Tanya only sees him as "a cheating bastard" for constantly strong-arming her against her will to carry out his will by manipulating everything. Tanya seeks to kill him in revenge.

As Tanya has maintained her resolves, she will likely get the last in the end; something akin to "even if it's true, i still refuse to believe".

## Mary Sue

He is using her as an apostle a.k.a tool for his ambition to make humanity and Tanya accept him as their **Creator.**

Kingdom of Ildoa

**Ildoa Kingdom** is located in the south of the Empire and east of the Francois Republic. It has some colonies on the southern continent, expanding its influence and competing with the Republic and the Commonwealth. It is also the Empire's ally, yet keeping neutral since the breakout of Great War.

## International Relations

**Empire (帝国)** - Ildoa had territorial disputes for Unredeemed Ildoa against the Empire but still signed a treaty of alliance with the Empire, which only stipulated some war provisions except the obligation to join the war on ally's side. In volume 6, Ildoa became a coordinator to hold the ceasefire deal between the Empire and other belligerents.

**Commonwealth (連合王国)** - As a coordinator, Ildoa takes many modern aircraft, operation orbs, and much interest-free loans from Commonwealth.

**Russy Federation (ルーシー連邦)** - In volume 6, the Kingdom was accepted to come forward as a coordinator who will hold the ceasefire negotiations between the Federation and the Empire. The Federation also stopped the activities of the radical left that were inside Ildoa as Ildoa's requirement.

## Military Strength

Ildoa Kingdom's military is an equal balance of army and navy. Their national strength and economy aren't in good shape, and their Royal Army also has a number of critical flaws which means they have less tendency to actually join the Great War.

### Army

The Royal Ildoan Army is famous for the tough alpine regiments which all report directly to the Royal Ildoan Army General Staff. Because they import many foreign weapons for modernizing, the equipment situation is a mess due to the lack of standardization.

### Airforce

Although they import many foreign aircraft,they also shore up their own fighter manufacturing, so there are some fairly nice domestic aircraft in service. Their aerial mage combat doctrine resembles the Commonwealth's due to the instructors who learned it on an exchange program between Ildoa and the Commonwealth.

## Trivia

* The real-life counterpart to the Kingdom of Ildoa is the Kingdom of Italy.
V2

The V2 is an invention unveiled in the ninth light novel of the series by Dr. Schugel as a manned torpedo that is the cause of the the infamous "Dakar Incident" suffered by the CommonWealth Navy, as well as the springboard for future WTN reporter Andrews investigation into the Eleventh Goddess. They were used by the 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion to take out multiple ships of the Commonwealth Navy, with at least one cruiser and aircraft carrier and flagship *Hood* being sunk.

**Invention**

The idea for such a weapon originated during Tanya's days in War College, as part of an exercise directed at coming up with ways for the Empire's continental power to compete with the Commonwealth's navy. Due to her previous life's knowledge of the eventual phasing out of large warships due to air power, she first recommends that the Navy utilize torpedo bombers or submarines to combat ships, unknowing that the torpedos issued to the navy (known as *aals* or eels), are hopelessly inadequate. Shifting gears, she considers the *maiale* and *kaiten* torpedoes employed by the Italian and Japanese navy respectably as a possible solution. With knowledge of various oxygen and movement formulas employed by mages, the concludes that they would be the perfect fit for such a weapon and offers it up for consideration without fully acknowledging the impacts.

**Usage**

The first usage of such weapons was during the Empire's **Operation Barbadoi** to rescue General Rommel's Southern Expeditionary Corps and shrink the amount of fronts the fight on. Due to Ildoa's declaration of forceful neutrality, Supreme Command decides to instead break through the Commonwealth ships stationed in the region, and utilize maritime passages to free the troops. The 203rd is sent by submarine to the region, and after the wolfpack they are part of spot the ships, begin their attack on the fleet. 6 V2's are aimed at the aircraft carrier, 4 at the cruiser, and the rest target battleships. The Commonwealth navy is caught completely off guard and suffer massive losses in the opening moments of the battle. Unaware that mages are among the enemy, surviving ships immediately prepare for anti-submarine warfare, prepping hedgehogs and depth charges on deck. Just then, the 203rd break cover from the ocean and swiftly target the flammables onboard the ships, capsizing or at least damaging many more. Before they can completely annihilate the enemies, reinforcement Commmonwealth mages arrive and the 203rd is forced into retreat.
Principality of Dacia

Flag of Dacia

Map of Dacia

The **Grand Duchy of Dacia** is based on the Latin name that was given to ancient Romania/Basarabia. According to Tanya's knowledge, Dacia is a minor state that had yet to achieve industrial revolution.

Their main military power comes from the old way of doing a conscription or peasant levy. These are non professional and untrained soldiers mostly. Their invasion of the Empire started with a march, they failed to establish air superiority with mages and planes as well as bombard positions with artillery. Their vanguard force was thrown into turmoil by Tanya Degurechaff's 203rd Aerial Mage Battalion.

The Dacian War ended shortly as the Imperial Army routed the Dacian force with with the unprecedented odds of 70,000 against 600,000. Dacia is overrun in six weeks. By the time Os city fell, the Empire had already established full control of Dacia and was smoothly setting up their administration.

## International Relations

Little is known about their diplomatic relationships with other country, but Tanya suspected their declaration of war was most likely incited by either the Republic or other nations that would have benefited from the Empire having to fight a three-front war.

Dacia was indeed sponsored by the Francois Republic to join the war and used the Casus bellis of taking back their land from the Empire (the map in the light novel shows an area called "Imperial Dacia" with the same border as Hungary in real life). Apart from the factory there is no known knowledge of foreign influence within the Grand Duchy of Dacia.

## Military Strength

The military of Grand Duchy of Dacia was still stuck in a late-19th century paradigm, thinking in only 2 dimensions which is land forces exclusive. The Grand Duchy of Dacia has failed to develop a proper and trained army, establish a mage unit, construct an air force and a long range bombardment artillery. They held a remarkable amount of troops standing strong at 600,000 but failed to make proper use of them. They employed bolt action rifles, no automatic weapons are known. They have neither known air capabilities nor any defenses against aerial assaults. The Grand Duchy of Dacia had old artillery seen for musket lines but nothing capable of long range or flak.

## Trivia

* On the maps that show up in the background of the anime, the country's name shows up as "Grosherzogtum Dacia" in a highly stylized font.
* In the anime, the weapon making scene inside their weapon factory shows workers making artillery shells.
* Its real life counterpart is the Kingdom of Romania (in the anime Dacia controls the same territories, with the only notable exception of Chernivtsi Oblast in Ukraine)
* The name Dacia was used by the romans to describe an area roughly corresponding to modern-day Romania, which in fact derives his name from the roman empire.
