Battle of Installation 051

The Battle for Installation 051 (October 30th, 2027) was the last major battle of the Great Libertation War, and it was marked by the extreme brutality never seen since the trench combats of World War I

Overview
The Installation 051 was a secret installation devoted to create portal technology. The head scientist of the project was Dr. Mario Rodriguez, which was trusted by the research team. After the news of the death of Cpt. Adam reached him, he entered into a severe depression, leading him to dedicate 100% of his time to the research. When the last Government forces discovered the installation, they decided to destroy it and take the portal technology to destroy the Rebellion. At the time, the veteran of the Defence of the Fort Wyvern Colonel Brian "Rocketeer" Joestar was stationed there, along with the 16th Guards division and the 8th Armored division.

Preparations
Both sides were preparing for a big battle that would happen at any moment

Rebellion
The Rebel supreme commander, General Bill Kayden advised the allied commanders of a possible threat represented by the remaining Government forces, called "Neo-Loyalist Army". Since the battle for the capital ended a few hours ago, several small groups of loyal Government forces started converging into a hidden spot deep on the Amazon jungle. They created the Neo-Loyalist Army, that was really big for a guerrilla warfare army.

Neo-Loyalist Army
The remaining loyalist forces, commanded by the general Hans Kyrian, started recruiting locals and rearming using an old Government weapons bunker deep on the Amazon jungle. After rearming and growing their army, they started a conquest campaign across the Amazon forest, eventually taking a Rebellion comms post. That's when they discovered about the Installation 051. Their commander initiated a search to find such important installation.

The Battle
After some days of search, the Neo-Loyalist Armies started a massive operation to capture the Installation, along with it's secrets. The first contact was made by an Rebel AH-64 Apache gunship, which noticied several movements on the jungle. After reporting the situation to the Installation, the chopper was hit by three Javelin Surface-to-Air missiles, destroying it and killing the crew. Col. Brian ordered his troops to assume defensive positions across the area. The facility was to be defended to the last man.

First Offensive
The Neo-Loyalist forces started a spearhead movement in the direction of the facility, encountering fierce resistance. Several Mi 28 Havoc and AH-64D Apache gunships destroyed most of the loyalist armor, forcing them to retreat. Several loyalist planes bombarded the line, destroying many bunkers and tanks stationed there. The first line had fallen, and the loyalist forces keep advancing.

Assault on the Installation
After the sucessful first assault destroyed the defensive line, the loyalists initiated a raid on the instalation. several thousands of soldiers invaded the facility and started to rush into the bunkers. Panic insues, as the desperate rebel forces fight on the corridors of the installation, several civilian scientists rush into the portal rooms screaming "turn that thing on!". Dr. Rodriguez himself was desperately programming the destination of the portal, while the last M1A4 Abrams tanks of the 8th Armored rush to block the exits using their heavy hulls. After two hours of tension, the portal is finally opened, and Dr. Rodriguez screams: "Finally! Colonel, get in!". Col. Brian was reluctant at first for abandoning his post, but after Dr. Rodriguez ensured him that he and the remaining forces would follow him shortly after, he sprinted to the portal, carrying the prototype of the portal gun with him. After he entered the portal, the Neo-Loyalist forces breached onto the room, wounding Dr. Rodriguez and killing several scientists. He passed through the portal, along with several soldiers and scientists, while the reactor of the facility started a meltdown. Shortly after, the reactor of the facility exploded, destroying the bunker system of the facility. Thanks to the thick iron walls of the surface level, the radiation was absorbed by the positron reactors responsible to absorb the radiation if the reactor entered into a critical state. Shortly after, several rebel divisions arrived and killed the surviving Neo-Loyalist forces.

Aftermath
With the main forces of the loyalists destroyed, the rest of the enemy troops were hunted and killed by the allied troops. According to a note left by the commanding officer of the Neo-Loyalists, the whole bunker system of the instalation was destroyed by the meltdown of the reactor, and everyone on the instalation died, including Colonel Brian Joestar and Dr. Mario Rodriguez. After the battle, a monument was created to remember the future generations of that day. Col. Brian Joestar was declared K.I.A and was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his actions. Dr. Rodriguez was Posthumously awarded the Civilian Order of Valor, the highest civilian award, for his invention. Later, a radio signal emmited from a wormhole proved that he was alive, but in another dimension. He told that he was known as Agent 7 and he couldn't get back due to the destruction of the portal gun during a confrontation.

Legacy
After the battle, the blueprints of the portal gun were recovered by Cmdr. Rex, Brian's best friend, allowing the allied scientists to recreate a second prototype, thus starting the Golden Era of Humanity, allowing interstellar travel to happen in a matter of minutes.
