Afterwards it's time to follow your comrades towards the nearby village named Loy Manara (3), which is located in grid coordinates 084024, in order to seize it. If you don't know where currently your commander is, you can press the key combination 5-5. Stay behind your comrades while they are running towards the village (#11), try not to run onto the hill situated to your left (to the north), to avoid exposing your silhouette to enemy combatants from the village. Press 5-4 combo, if you were wounded during the fight and you need medical assistance - after a while (rather longer than shorter...) there should appear a medic near you, who will know what to do (but he acts like he has no clue...). When closing to this Takistani village (3), try to use as a cover any rocks and walls you'll encounter on your way.
In the village, on the road leading northwards, you'll encounter probably an obsolete armoured car used by enemy combatants (#12). Although I don't know if it is functional in this scenario (I mean - if its HMG may hurt you), or it's only a decorative element of the scenography, but it's worth to treat this car with a grenade fired from your grenade launcher. Just in any case. Alternatively you can use a hand grenade against this vehicle, if you have such a grenade in your arsenal.

Kill all the combatants you'll spot in the village. The only sign that allows you to distinguish them from the civilians are the weapons of multifarious origin which they hold in their hands. First of all kill the crew of HMG (heavy machine gun) which is hiding behind the sandbags on the left roadside of the road leading from the village to the east (#13). This HMG emplacement is situated on the margin of Loy Manara village (3).
After the fight and after clearing of the hostiles this Takistani settlement it's time to seize Jaza village (4), which is located to SE, in grid 093017. Before you move towards it, you can search the pockets of the dead Americans, if anyone of them had a bad luck to be killed here, in this rathole..., ekhm, in this distant and very exotic country... It's worth to search for a rifle equipped with a thermovisual or optical sight - in a minute such a weapon (#14) may be very useful.

Follow your comrades towards the next Takistani village (4). In this area the enemy disposes also of some tanks and APCs (Armoured Personnel Carriers), but they all should be destroyed already by American Apache gunships and Abrams tanks. So you shouldn't have an opportunity to fight against such a dangerous, armored opponent. Thanks God! On the southeastern margins of the Loy Manara village (3) there's a household of some Takistani peasant (#15).
By climbing up to the roof of the mud hut (#16), which is located inside the yard, you'll obtain quite a nice view on the surroundings, especially on the village (4), which you should seize now. It's a good position to fire from the assault rifle equipped with the scope with a large magnification. But if you weren't able to obtain such a weapon, then you have nothing to wait for and you must follow your comrades directly to Jaza village (4). From this distance you'll only waste your ammo when trying to hit anything in Jaza (4) from the weapon with EOTech holographic sight installed on it.

But if you have an assault rifle with ACOG (Advanced Combat Optical Gunsight) or thermovisual sight mounted on it, then you can take a look through it at the buildings of Jaza village (4). You should see two HMGs on the roofs of two houses which are situated on the northern outskirts of this settlement. There may be some combatants hanging around the one which is situated easternmost (#17). Fire at all the visible silhouettes - it may be more difficult to hit a guy who is operating HMG, because from your current position you're probably able to see only his little head.
Try to hit at the head and eliminate the gunner of the second HMG (located westernmost) (#18), while covering your comrades when they're running towards this village (4).

Leave the roof (don't jump, use the stairs!) and follow your companions (#19). Prey for a squad leader who is intelligent enough to choose the best way of the approach to Jaza (4). And the best approach is from the west, from the airfield (1) captured recently by the Allied forces. That's because the village (4) is situated on the side of the hill which is descending from west to east and by approaching the settlement from this first direction you'll have a better view on enemy positions in Jaza (4). During the battle you and your squad should be supported by M2 Bradley IFVs (Infantry Fighting Vehicles). It doesn't mean, though, that you may put a finger into your nose and wait until they'll do your job (of clearing the village of hostiles), or leave this task to your squadmates, because it's easy then to take unnecessary casualties. And this mission ends with failure if Americans lose in the battle too many soldiers or too much equipment!
So support your comrades and eliminate enemy combatants who are taking their positions mostly along the road which is running through the village (4). On this road you may also spot another car armed with HMG. Take care of it using your grenade launcher, alternatively shot dead the gunner first, then the driver. Do it while carefully leaning from behind the corner of the building or the wall (#20). This scenario ends after clearing the village (4) of Takistani combatants.
