The Battle Of Na'Shidar

The Battle of Na'Shidar was the 5th battle of the Bananalutionary War, one of only two battles lost by The Mushroom Army during the war. After Banana General Bridgadear Peel took Holmond Air Base, a prominent Mushroom Airforce Base in the south of the Kingdom, he made his way towards the small mushroom village of Na'Shidar. Na'Shidar was historically a very powerful and safe town, being guarded by the Yellow Phoenix Ronin's, a group of Mushroom Ronin warriors, the very last generation to be trained by the Samurai that once roamed the kingdom until they were pushed out of the kingdom in 273PE. During the Bananalutionary War most settlements in the south were protected by the Army incase of a Banana attack. At this time Na'Shidar was under the protection of Captain Levi Vanto who was given control of a small detachment of 200 soldiers from Commander Keili's 53rd MAIU (Mushroom Army Infantry Unit). On M11/D24/344PE General Peel led 1,500 of his 56th soldiers to take over the town. Captain Levi and his men were able to hold off long enough for the people of Na'Shidar to be escorted to the safety of their Mortego Outpost only a dozen miles from the town. After only an hour of trying to hold their position, all that was left of the Mushroom Soldiers was a field medic named Friar Pe'fring who was hulled up in one of the village homes with a J-37 Mounted Machinegun (MM37) that he used against General Peels soldiers. Friar was shot 3 times and ran out of bullets, having to move to the next house to get more ammo, moving the MM37 with him. Friar was found with 17 bullet wounds he gained while fighting before eventually dying in battle. Pe'fring killed 93 Banana soldiers during his final stand. General Peel took over the town and used it to try to funnel more troops into The Mushroom Kingdom before being called for retreat at the end of the war two months later.
