The battle around Deogarh was fiercely intense from the beginning.
On the morning of the 15th, just a few hours after the vanguard forces were ambushed, the Fan Army dispatched another brigade to attack Deogarh.
However, this time it was an infantry brigade.
Due to the limitations of the rugged terrain, the advance speed was not very fast.
Evidently, the Fan Army's purpose was not to send this brigade to recapture Deogarh. Even if the Fan Army Commander was incompetent, they wouldn't expect a brigade of just over 3,000 infantry to eliminate several Empire Marine Corps battalions. As for their true intent, it was evidently to discern the defense deployment of the Marine Corps through the attack.
For instance, the deployment locations of long-range rocket artillery.
