Battle of Kresna Gorge - World War One Mod

25 July, 1913
[Kresna Gorge, 76Km South of Sofia, Bulgaria]: After the Serbian
front became static, and seeing that the Bulgarian Army in his
front had already suffered defeat, King Constantine ordered the
Greek Army to march further into Bulgarian territory and take
the capital city of Sofia. King Constantine wanted a decisive
victory on this war despite the objections of Prime Minister
Eleftherios Venizelos who realized that the Serbs, having won
their territorial objectives, were now trying to move the weight
of the rest of the war to the Greeks by staying passive. After
the victorious Battle of Doiran the Greek forces continued their
penetration north. On July 18, the 1st Greek Division, managed
to drive back the Bulgarian rear guard and captured an important
foothold at the southern end of the Kresna pass. In the pass,
the Greeks were ambushed by the Bulgarian 2nd and 4th Army which
was newly arrived from the Serbian front and had taken up defensive
positions there. However, after bitter fighting the Greek side
managed to break through the Kresna pass. The Greek advance continued
and on July 25, the village of Krupnik, north of the pass, was
captured, forcing the Bulgarian troops to withdraw to Simitli.
Simitli was also captured on July 26, while at the night of July
27-28 the Bulgarian forces were pushed north to Gorna Dzhumaya
(Blagoevgrad), 76 km south of Sofia. This scenario depicts some
of the fighting for the Gorge, on the 25th.Version 1.0, adjusted
