Battle of Bridge 201

The Battle of Bridge 201 was a minor battle within the Fort Walsh Campaign. It resulted in the destruction of Bridge 201 which spanned the Sloan River.

Prelude
Several hours prior to the battle, allied forces set up a defence of the bridge. Explosives were also attached and sandbags were placed on the allied side of the Sloan.

Internetian forces set up one light Firewaller mortar on the ocean side of the Sloan.

Infantry charge
At midday Fort Walsh Time, the Internetian forces on the ocean side of the bridge prepared an infantry charge. It was lead by a lieutenant whose identity is unknown.

The total of eight soldiers charged in four groups. Of these men, five were killed during the attack. No allied soldiers were harmed. The remaining four Internetians retreated to the mortar.

Tank battle
About an hour later, the two Internetian tanks from Node Squadron approached the bridge. A Tulnosian tank on the allied side then appeared and destroyed one of the Internetian tanks, whose crew was killed by Sebastian Stevens. The other Internetian tank then disabled the allied cavalry, before attempting to cross the bridge.

Destruction of Bridge 201
As the Internetian tank attempted to cross the bridge, the explosives on it were detonated. The bridge was destroyed and the tank fell into the river, killing all crew members.

Aftermath
Following the battle, the paratroopers stationed at Bridge 201 left the area. The Tulnosian tank was repaired and left as well.
