Operasjon Underlegge Halthor or Subdue Halthor was a Military operation which was carried out from 1875 to 1879 and aimed to either Kill, Destroy or Capture Sargon in the Third Sargonic war.

## Etymology

The Name Subdue Halthor comes from the Nysthiestic tale of Halthor who in legend rose up in defiance and tried to kill the gods and take over fagrjörð. The Name was used due to Sargon's past as an Inquisitor under Oscar before leaving and rising up to try and defeat Relthor by himself.

## Raid on the Bastilion

On the Morning of August 9th 1879 at 7:31 the Phantom Battalion's First Infantry Platoon of Alfa company under command of Lieutenant Rev along with Oscar III and the Inquisitors Harald IV and Haakon II departed in 5 LTH-12 dropships from Hötzgard (Munzig), and flew towards Sargon's last known position at the Bastilion. They were accompanied on the ground by Oscar's Alfa Company and Ragnar I with 4 Aslaksen halftracks (one carrying artillery), 9 Horses and 6 trucks.

Air unit arrived at around 8:11 and ground unit around 9:01 where the 150 men of Alfa company set up their positions around the entrance to the West. At the tenth hour the three Inquisitors accompanied by 10 Battalion Guards entered the Bastilion where the troopers started to clear rooms and the Inquisitors made their way to the throne room where they made contact with Sargon and engaged in a duel. at 10:22 Oscar III along with 10 new Battalion Guards entered the Bastilion with the 10 Guards reinforcing their allies while Oscar made his way to the throne room.

Oscar Reached the throne room around 10:36 and called the Inquisitors back to him after which he dropped down a floor and engaged Sargon in a duel. Though a fierce fight Oscar was eventually able to tap into the spirits increasing his speed and power with essence which proved to be too much for Sargon who was killed by a sword to the back. Before his Death Oscar and Sargon shared a last conversation with Sargon dying in Oscar's arms after which Oscar closed Sargon's eyes.

at 11:31 5 follower of Sargon along with 25 soldiers of the 209th infantry platoon (16 human, 9 Phantom) arrived at the eastern entrance not noticing Alfa Company on the Other side of the building. Once inside the 209th Infantry Platoon slowly made contact with Alfa Company and engaged in fire fights throughout the building. Alfa Company suffered 2 wounded against the 12 dead and 2 wounded of the 209th and pursued the 209th towards the west entrance. Here Oscar regrouped with his guard and summoned Haakon II to retrieve Sargon's body along with 8 Battalion Guards, Oscar himself moved towards the western entrance where the door had been locked behind him. Here Oscar found the 3 remaining Followers and 9 Soldiers of the 209th whom he massacred to a man with the last follower finally unlocking the door and running out down the stairs with Sargon's Talisman where he was shout by a Grøn maskingevær fired by Alfa Company at 12:43.
