The 500 paratroopers of the first echelon quickly assembled, unaware that they had been exposed to Hamid's surveillance.
Hamid was excited because there were six burst points near the assemble area, capable of exploding high-explosive rocks.
Twenty minutes later, the first echelon completed assembly, and the second echelon began to assemble soon after.
When the second echelon was almost finished, the commander of the first echelon ordered an attack.
The plan was to directly attack the pit on the front slope, disarming the enemy's defense while drawing out the enemy on the reverse slope and attracting hidden enemies in other directions.
The second echelon would then attack from behind, intending to surround and eliminate the enemy.
When the defense on the front slope collapsed, thousands of government soldiers would rush up, leaving Hamid's forces with nowhere to escape.
The commander of the first echelon spoke into the Cataclysmic Front's intercom system, asking the second echelon to confirm their assembly situation.
The second echelon commander replied, "Our troops are finishing up the pre-battle equipment checks."
The commander of the first echelon immediately requested an attack, seeking clearance from Commander Walter.
Walter approved the attack, urging them to finish off the enemy on the reverse slope within ten minutes and avenge their fallen comrades.
The commander of the first echelon assured Walter that they would fulfill their duty and take revenge for their fallen brothers.
With a nod, Walter ordered the attack to begin.
The commander of the first echelon ordered his soldiers to advance, just as Hamid activated his explosives inside the pit.
The detonation of the six explosive points caused powerful explosions, killing and injuring many of the Cataclysmic Front's soldiers.
Loud explosions rocked the area, lifting at least a hundred soldiers high off the ground and causing widespread casualties.
Serious injuries and fatalities resulted, with many soldiers hit by metal shrapnel, some losing their lives instantly.
Those who were lucky suffered only minor wounds but were left with extensive injuries, including fractured limbs and blinded eyes.
Walter received the news of the attack and the cries of his soldiers in pain, his scalp tingling with fear.
The commander of the first echelon, now blind from the shrapnel, cried out in desperation: "Commander, we've been ambushed!!!"
