The war in the western theater had only half a day's rest.
When night fell once more, the imperial main force occupying outpost 1842's defense line launched an even fiercer harassment attack than the previous night upon outpost 1840.
The onslaught was almost a full-scale offensive.
The reason behind this was simple: That very morning, outpost 1840 had been an area occupied by the Empire, but now it had been reclaimed by the Federation.
Some people in the headquarters of the western theater had believed it was not necessary to reclaim outpost 1840 at this time. Half a day wasn't enough time for them to repair all of their defensive fortifications.
While the Empire had occupied outpost 1840, although they had already repaired the relevant facilities, they left in a hurry and couldn't do more damage.
