MDC reinforcements arrived from the north not long afterward.
The shared picture identified the MDC reinforcements long before their first vehicles entered the industrial district. Nobody from the Golden Eagle Army reacted when another armed formation appeared behind them.
The MDC troops slowed anyway once they saw what remained of the battlefield.
Destroyed Hawford armor sat along several roads while smoke continued rising between the warehouses. Golden Eagle Army infantry were collecting weapons, moving prisoners away from the fighting area and checking the buildings left behind by the retreating troops.
Engineers and recovery elements were already working on the damaged System vehicles.
Vanguard Five remained near the workshop where its track was damaged during the battle. Several Engineers worked around the assembly while the crew stayed with the tank.
Even the armor that took repeated hits looked better than it did earlier.
