The Burning of Montgomery
As the civilians are majority evacuated from Montgomery, the military takes action.

Anything important to the monarchists is taken or destroyed, and any valuables are stolen or, again, destroyed. This follows the idea of Scorched-Earth policy, and the Napoleonic era Burning of Moscow.

Military officials remaining in the city have already realized that Montgomery will fall to the March Norians, but have decided to make it’s fall as bloody as possible. One reason for this is to discredit March noria on the International Stage, hoping to drive away possible allies for the fascist nation by showing it to be a barbaric regime that cares nothing for the people and only for short-term gains.

With the entirety of Troy surrounded on four sides, The Caudillo would initiate phase two of the assault, which aims to deprive the entire city of much needed medical facilities. APCs begin unloading artillery crews carrying the infamous BGM-71 TOW missile gun, and would commence the attacks. Troy Regional Medical Center, Charles Henderson Child Health Center, SARHA Doctors Center, and Pike Internal Medicine, the four major medical centers of the area, would all be bombarded into ashes, both to support desertion and an overall loss of morale from the defenders.

In addition to this, APCs would begin surrounding the areas, capturing as much fleeing civilians and officials as they can, those who refuse to halt their retreat are gunned down by machine gun fire.

Understanding that the defenders have chosen to fight to the death and maximize casualties, March Norian infantry operations would partially halt. Instead, the artillery crews and APCs would commence the assault, with the impervious design of the APC armor combined with the mobile and minuscule sizes of which artillery crew ensuring both the quick decimation of enemy infantry and the minimalization of potential casualties.

The added 2,000 men flown in from Veracruz would make their landing at New Forestia, and would coordinate with the remaining 3,000 soldiers of the 12th Battle Regiment to march forwards to Montgomery from the side, bypassing Troy and instead passing through Greenville, in Interstate 65, as to take the Republicans by surprise, and forcing them to defend the city on two fronts.

The defenders decide to hide within buildings, using whatever they can to push back the enemy. If it comes to it, the destruction of major buildings will commence.

As planned by the enemy, the destruction of medical centers in the city has decreased the morale of soldiers. For others, however, it gives fuel to the burning fire that is hatred and the need for revenge.

Citizens inside the city are being armed, and told to defend themselves and their families with everything they got, as they will not survive when the fascists come.
