The Alternative War - The Battle of Johannesburg (Boer Republic)

South Africa - 1965

After a year of the stalemate in South Africa, it was time for something to change. The South African generals planned an attack on Johannesburg, a few miles away from Pretoria. Johannesburg was important, because, if Johannesburg would fall, then Pretoria would fall, and then Boer Republic would fall too.

X-RAY and Foxtrot we're getting ready for the battle, after small talks, the attack begins. Huge explosions would be heard. Mortar shells would fall into the City, then, the South Africans soldiers started to yell "URAA!", attacking the city. X-RAY was assigned to flank the city, and secure the bunkers in Johannesburg. While Foxtrot was assigned to support the South Africans.

After that, X-RAY slowly advanced toward Johannesburg, then Burns said:

Burns: Alright, see that bunker? Burns pointed at a small entrance into the ground.

Burns: That's a bunker, we're going in, clear the bunker, plant C4, we leave, and we continue to search for bunkers, got it?

Eric: Alright, I'll stay outside and watch our backs.

Jacob and Max nodded.

Burns: Move, move!

X-RAY went inside the bunker, while Eric stayed outside. After X-RAY cleared a few rooms, a Boer Republic Separatist yelled "SOUTH AFRICANS!" then threw a IED. The IED exploded, making the ground to start falling into the bunker.

Max yelled: "OUTSIDE, NOW, NOW!", X-RAY ran through the bunker while ground would fall into the bunker. X-RAY jumped outside of the bunker, then the entrance to the bunker was full of ground.

Burns: Dammit, alright, no time for rest, let's go.

X-RAY moved up to the next bunker, clearing it.

Jackson started to yell in the radio:

"SWAMPY, SWAMPY!"

Swampy grabbed his radio and started talking: "Jackson, what's the problem?"

Jackson: "THE BOERS AND THE GERMANS ARE RETREATING, CUT THEM OFF, NOW!"

Swampy: "Let's go, now!"

X-RAY ran over, cutting off german soldiers and boer separatists. This meant Johannesburg fell to the South Africans. Soldiers were heard cheering and started to fire into the air. The next day, Pretoria fell to the South Africans.
