On the Indian Ocean surface, East Africa's ironclad ships and gunboats began bombarding the city of Maputo. Shells left mottled marks on the fortress walls built from black boulders, showing the robustness of Maputo as a stronghold.
"Now Maputo is no longer safe. Besides facing the glaring threat from the East African forces in New Hamburg Port City, the East African navy on the Indian Ocean has also become a serious threat to Maputo City," Bugival said gravely to Count Roberts.
In fact, the Allies had long anticipated that East Africa would attack Maputo from the sea, but when the day finally came, the Allies still felt enormous pressure.
"The sea surface is controlled by East Africa; in reality, Maputo has become an isolated city. Except for the north, Maputo is very close to other East African troops, so I suggest we should relocate the command post inland or to the north."
