Battle of Langzuria

The First ever Battle to occur between the Anvil United Front and the Mutual Assistance League.

7th of June, 1987

The Brand New MAL Shock Troops were no match for the Veteran Helganti Defenders in Langzuria, suffering no casualties during the first assault and inflicting heavy losses to the Shock Troopers, causing them to rout back over the border before re-organizing and attempting to assault again, this time aided by artillery and a Lightly Armoured Batallion with some infantry from the nearby Garrison Divisions, even though they did inflict some casualties to the Defenders during the 2nd assault, it was an absolute massacare, the 5th Shock Batallion was nearly wiped out and the assisting Infantry and Armor Divisions suffered heavy losses, in contrast, the Veteran Defenders only suffered 28 wounded and 3 deaths.

This however, did not end there, the MAL Troops wanted revenge for their dead soldiers

And so, on the 15th of June they launched a full offensive against Langzuria, with multiple Assault Divisions, Heavy Armor divisions, Garrison & Infantry Support, Artillery and Air Support, The Helganti Veterans somehow managed to hold their ground, inflicting massive casualties on the Inexpirienced and Ill-Trained MAL Troops, who barely even knew how to hold a gun, MAL was forced to retreat, but the 23rd Mountaineer Batallion was Exhausted, With little ammo and multiple casualties, they were sent to the rear echelons to R&R and the 12th Infantry Replaced the Highlanders with AT and AA Weapon Support and some engineers, entrenching themselves and making use of the nearby hills for makeshift bunkers and underground tunnel complexes, By June 21st the MAL finally realized the fruitless efforts on the Langzuria Offensive and scrapped their plans, looking elsewhere for an attack.
