Victory had come at a heavy cost, but now, the combined forces prepared for something they had not dared until now, a counterattack.
Orders were given and plans drawn
The time had come to push back the invading forces of the United Kingdom, France, and Israel, starting with their weakest link: the French positions.
Major Arun Prakash stood surrounded by his senior commanders and Egyptian allies.
His voice was low but firm, cutting through the tension in the air. "The French lines are stretched thin. Their coordination is weak, and their armor is lagging behind the British. We hit them hard, and we break their center. Once their lines collapse, we push straight into the Israeli and British flanks."
Colonel Nair, the artillery commander, nodded.
"We've repositioned the batteries. If we focus our fire on their rear supply lines, they'll crumble before they can regroup."
