Sorry:
The veteran horseman went in to soften up the defending spearman, lost a lot of early ground (2/4), then somehow won

.
Irritated to find another spearman, our veteran swordsmen redlined himself in exposing the rather sick archer remaining.
The honour of despatching him was provided to a spearman

, with others following to re-inforce the city.

The troops who took Beijing need to recover, then join the other recoverers and our constantly arriving new veteran stream.
Our scout recognizes the imminence of Praetarian iron.
Our generals are loudly debating, after several flagons of remarkably cheap Arabian and Chinese liqueurs, whether the Praetarians will have any idea what to do with it when it arrives.
Our new Beijing garrison sees the Praetarian spearmen meander off in search of inspiration, or a new strategy, or both.
--------
Our military advisers puke over the virtual absence of battle upgrades, considering how many we've won.
