The Battle of Minilet was a skirmish that began spontaneously shortly after the Sahren Civil War began between the Sahren Republican Guard and Regency-Junta loyalists. The city was left relatively undamaged due to the lack of artillery support from the Republican side.
Background
Partisan actions in Bastia had been relatively tame compared to Sahrland in the unstable years leading up to the conflict. Shortly after the beginning of the civil war Bastian aligned groups along with Sahren operatives took the chance to overthrow the government of Sahren-Nuvastia, which relied mostly on a small force of lesser trained local troops.
The race to the coast
A large Sahren-Nuvastian force quickly concentrated in Minilet to accumulate supplies shortly after the civil war began. Small detachments were left to slow down the Republicans advancing from both sides. Royal armed forces leadership concluded that the best chance to succeed in this skirmish would be to force the enemy in modern trench warfare in the urban centre, and thereby grind him down in a war of attrition until reinforcements could arrive via sea. Hope that foreign powers may intervene was high for all sides, and By the 5th of Khelad Zokesia pledged support for the regency-junta regime just as Minilet was surrounded and Republicans began entering the city.
Course of battle
Entering the city
Sahren-Nuvastian command was split between pulling back to the ports and waiting for reinforcements or trying to hold the entire city. (nuvastian general name here) assessed that the lack of organization from the Republicans would be detrimental to urban warfare, and a lack of artillery support would cause the battle to devolve into modern trench warfare after only a short period of time. Homes were quickly seized to use as pillboxes and the local police were issued rifles.
On the eleventh Republicans began entering the suburbs of the city, attacking aggressively to force the Nuvastians to commit reserves in the area. The Minilet youth briogaid was able to slip westward unnopposed and cut off Minilet from the north. A similar flanking maneuver was attempted by the Republican 3rd División but took heavy casualties against Nuvastian Dragoons as they advanced. By the 14th Minilet was surrounded but Republican casualties had already shot up to 5,500 while Sahren-Nuvastia only took just less than 3000.
Sahren-Nuvastian counterattacks
On the 16th the Minilet youth briogaid came under attack from the Sahren-Nuvastian 6th Divizi de Armadura in an attempt to break Minilet's encirclement. The 1st División de Guardias Republianos was split in half so properly trained soldiers could reinforce this area. The fighting would continue here until the end of the battle, with the youth briogaid eventually sustaining 3,245 deaths out of the only 4580 present.
The action on the 14th continued and was bolstered on the 16th by the Guardias Republianos joining in the assault of the eastern districts. Republican moral was also increased when news of Zokesian endorsement of their cause was revealed. The advance crawled to a halt after 90% of the eastern district was captured as the Sahren-Nuvastian force was able to defend the smaller line easier. Intense but indecisive trench warfare continued until the end of the month here.
Partisans in Minilet were encouraged to sabotage the Sahren-Nuvastian war effort. A significant clash between MPs and protestors was recorded on the 16th of Khelad leaving 2 dead and 13 civilians injurred.
