Two weeks prior to Berengar's return to the fatherland, Adelbrand sat in his office in the city of Granada. It was an ordinary day, as far as he was concerned. Currently, he was overseeing paperwork and managing the Sultanate of Al-Andalus in Berengar's absence. Lately, the conflict between the Iberian rebels who were supported by the Catholic church had turned more chaotic.
With weapons and munitions scavenged from deceased German soldiers finding their ways into the hands of the rebels, the German and Andalusian soldiers found themselves fighting against an enemy armed with explosives and single-shot rifles.
Though the rebels could not reproduce the weapons or munitions they scavenged, they could still use them to deadly effect in a series of ambushes. The more German soldiers who fell, the more advanced weapons that fell into the hands of their enemies.
