The 21st Army's night attack was successful, and at the same time, the 20th Army's cavalry also harassed the Prussian supply convoys on the grasslands.
Even the herdsmen on the grasslands joined the attack, reportedly because the Prussians forcibly abducted their cattle, sheep, and some horses.
The herdsmen's livelihoods heavily relied on cattle and sheep, and without them they might not survive the winter. What to do if they couldn't get through? They had no choice but to damn well fight the Prussian devils.
In the blink of an eye, the sun rose again, and the morning of the 18th arrived.
The Prussian 10th Army Group had planned to launch a pincer movement that morning, but all units designated for the offensive were now preparing to consolidate their forces, then join in the operation to relieve the encircled 190th Division.
