[[Smithson's Chinese Bandits]] arrived in-system on the 1st of October as League invasion forces were jumping into other systems nearby as part of an offensive intended to isolate and then destroy two Lyran line regiments, the [[Eleventh Lyran Guards]] and the [[Seventeenth Arcturan Guards]], both stationed on Wyatt.<ref name="FSWMAv1p62">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 62, "Operation DAGGER"</ref> Although the plan to destroy the two Lyran regiments was unsuccessful, the League did capture Milton.<ref name="FSWMAv1p63">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 1'', p. 63, "Operation DAGGER"</ref>

====The Jihad====
Following the invasion of the Free Worlds League by the Skye and Bolan Provinces of the [[Lyran Alliance]] in what was termed [[Operation ÜBERSCHATTEN]], Marshall [[Jeremy Brett]] took command of the local [[FWLM]] and launched a counteroffensive, under the name [[Operation BROKEN FIST]]. BROKEN FIST went beyond simply attempting to recapture worlds that the Lyrans had seized, as it struck into Lyran space at numerous worlds. Milton was one of the worlds hit and was captured by the League on the 1st of September [[3068]] by the [[First Free Worlds Guards]] in less than forty-eight hours.<ref name=SLB>''BattleCorps: INN Newscast (Solaris Broadcasting Co. section), news item published [12/09/3068]: "Steiner Lines 'Broken' Says Brett Aide"''</ref><ref name="J:FRp45">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 45: "The Jihad In Review"</ref> The planet was subsequently incorporated into the Word of Blake Protectorate, and later liberated by troops fighting on the Lyran front of [[Operation SCOUR]] in January [[3078]].<ref name="J:FRp58">''Jihad: Final Reckoning'', p. 58: "The Jihad in Review"</ref>
