Battle of Zvyozdochka

The Battle of Zvyozdochka (Romanised Russian: Bitva na Zvyozdochka) was a battle which took place during the Chemgotan War of Independence from January 17 to January 19 2032. The battle was fought between the forces of the Russian Armed Forces and the Chemgotan Defence Force adjoined with Partisan and Militia units to support the Chemgotan thrust, the unit which spearheaded the Chemgotan advance was the well renown but mostly uncredited Dalstroy Crusaders of Liberty which comprised mostly of American volunteers which fought for the Chemgotan cause during the Chemgotan War of Independence. The battle was largely fought through irregular means, with the Chemgotan forces using cavalry, infantry, artillery and aerial support to attack the settlement of Zvyozdochka which was occupied and defended by Russian forces. During this engagement, the Chemgotan forces were largely comprised of the Dalstroy Crusaders of Liberty, which managed to outnumber the Russians significantly and had the advantage of firepower, mobility and aerial support against their Russian adversaries. For one day, Zvyozdochka was besieged by Chemgotan forces constantly throughout the day and night, the settlement was heavily bombarded by artillery and fighter-bombers, mostly F-4 Phantom IIs from Magadan. Chemgotan Militia, Partisan and Infantry forces launched a general assault on Zvyozdochka the following day when the bombardment ceased, the Russian forces were swiftly overwhelmed and forced to retreat from Zvyozdochka, with the Russian forces holding the Chemgotan advance for 4 hours until the Russians were overwhelmed and defeated after brutal house-to-house and street-to-street, eventually many Russian forces surrendered and were captured by the Chemgotan forces under the Dalstroy Crusaders of Liberty with their equipment being largely seized and with the settlement of Zvyozdochka and the surrounding area becoming relieved and liberated, being under Chemgotan control and authority. Following the battle, Zvyozdochka was an important forward operating base and served as a vital staging point to launch further assaults into Russian occupied Yakutia, Yakutsk was 455 kilometres from Zvyozdochka, which troubled the Russian forces.
