September 20, 1888.
The main force of the Southern Military District of East Africa, assembled at Vorster, began attacking the British Army in the eastern part of the Southern Border Province, leveraging the strongholds and passes of the 512th Division in the Drakensberg Mountains.
At the same time, under the coordination of the General Staff, the defenders of New Hamburg Port City also started attacking the British Army outside the city.
With the reopening of navigation at New Hamburg Port City, the newly mixed-division had already completed personnel expansion and equipment supplies by this time.
East Africa launched an offensive against the British Army from both the eastern and western directions, while the exhausted British Army was completely unable to resist, and the worst part was that they had no defensive positions to hold.
