Battle of Bjelovar

After the holidays in france my cavalry platton hass been motorized and the cavtransports have been retrained for other infantry jobs(at rifle, sniper pioneer lmg). The transpoertw e got consist of an opel truck an horch truck an armoured truck and a bren carrier we found at the beaches of dunkirk.

Our first job was to secure the road running through the city of bjelovar in croatia. since the city is in croatia one of our new allies the yougoslav army had to move in itself and a better of manouver began.

the yugos ran head on into the village were they were met by my motorinf.
My infantry was retreating from the town centre while the foot infantry advanced to the south of the city covered by the elite sniper.

The tanks moved unopposed at the northern flank taking out the 90mm mortars ( a good piecee of equipment i hope i can get some) and then attacking the yugos in bjelovar from behind.

meanwhile a recon group of spws and panzergrendiers destroyed an infantry company in the south that was trying to block the road there.

then they moved north to attack the remants of the yugo company in bjelovar that was now on its retreat.

at the end of the battle all yugoslavs were either dead or captured.

we had 8 wia and 2 kia and one mia( amember of th at gun cew went to take a leak in the woods and hasnt reported back yet). enemy causalities were 11 dead 400 prisoners.
