Kowalski: "You want us to not attack until Moscow has fallen?"

*Harkov sat in his room, looking at pictures of his family. He smiled slightly as he drank his tea. Then Alexai entered the room.*
Alexai: "Minister Caballus left sir."
Harkov: "Alright. Did you do what I asked you to do?"
Alexai: "Yes sir."
Harkov: "Good job Alexai. You are proving yourself to be useful after all. Now, make sure that I don't retract that statement. You know what to do."
Alexai: "Yes sir." *He nodded and left, going off to do his secret task.*

"That is correct, Mr. Kowalski. That is the prime time to counter attack; the majority of Hungary's forces will be in Russia keeping order, and Carolus' western border will be at its weakest. It will take a good week or more for him to mobilise his men back from Russia to defend Budapest."

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 7th, 2059.

"Keep an army ready for Poland and Germany. One for each. And call up Sweden and Finland for me. I need to discuss with them about this. It will be an offer they won't be able to refuse." Carolus says, walking with General Kereshtur.

"Oh! And, Mezey! The contractor has put the blueprints on my desk! Use those!" He yells back to his guardmaster.

"There's going to be no way we will be beaten on this day."

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

Prince Tarkin walked into the Emperor's office. The door was almost always open, and with the inevitable war glaring down upon the world, soldiers and officers were coming in and out at any given .

"Your Majesty, Polish troops have begun massing at the border, and there are reports that the Russians are preparing to mobilise. Perhaps a quick would be wise."

[Vergenskia]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"I have men moving to the German-Polish area as well as the Russian border. I have contacted the Prime-Ministers of Sweden and Finland. They will aid us, as well." Carolus says, while investigating satellite photos of certain high-risk areas.

"Come, sit. What other news do you have for me? I haven't gotten anything in 8 hours. Of course I haven't left this seat."

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

The Imperial Ambassador sat down and let it in.

"NATO has not yet mobilised; it would be best to appeal to their neutrality and wait to attack them until Moscow falls. My own military analysts place the defeat of the Russians in less than two weeks."

[Vergenskia]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"Have the Russians been following the treaty? And yes, I know what you're about to reference. I know what time of year it is. I will not be making the mistakes that Bonaparte and Hitler made. Even if they slash and burn. We will move too fast for it to be effective."

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"Understood. The Russians have maintained the Treaty of Barcelona, and as such, will only be able to field 10,000 men. However, if the war lasts longer than two weeks, then more Russians can be mobilised."

[Vergenskia]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"Excellent. With only 10,000 defensive forces, they will be toppled in days. Then we can begin our other campaign there." Carolus says, stacking the photos into a neat pile. "With Commander Fekete's retirement, you've been a great help to the cause, Tarkin."

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

Tarkin bowed.

"I am most gracious, Your Majesty. As our Fathers were friends, so shall we."

[Vergenskia]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"Keep it up and I'll have to give you a landed title." Carolus says with a hearty laugh. "You remind me a lot of your father. At least, what I remember from my youth."

[Britanania]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"Thank you, Your Imperial Majesty. His Highness, the Prince Tarkin often spoke highly of His Royal Highness King Erno."

[Vergenskia]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"My father spoke very highly of yours, as well, Ambassador. Our fathers were quite a duo for decades." Carolus says with a grand smile.

"Indeed they were, Your Majesty"

The Prince checked his pocket watch, his Family Seal printed on the front; a black serpent entwined a bloody sword, the Imperial Crown on the snake's head. The Words of the House of Tarkin were also printed; In hoc signo vinces.

[Vergenskia]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"Now if you mind, Tarkin, I must address the world on the matters of Russia. Make sure the troops are ready on the West. Kereshtur has the East and North. Mezey has domestic affairs, now."

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.


With a bow, the Prince departed the Castle and flew his jet over toward the troops on the west. Everything was staged for the invasion.

NATO HQ
Kowalski: "I see. Yes we have been preparing plans for a counter attack in the case of a Hungarian invasion of Russia. We've got a three pronged attack ready coming from Germany, Poland, and Turkey. We also might have Georgian troops begin an invasion of the Crimea if needed."

Southern Slovakia
*In the small village, Hungarian soldiers where looking for rebels. They had a group of people lined up in front of a barn. They where preparing to execute them. From a distant point Vermaak was watching this through his binoculars.*
Vermaak: "We have at least 4 Hungarian troops preparing to execute a group of rebels in front of a barn. I say we kill the troops now."
Slovak General: "No, not until the plan is fully ready."
Vermaak: "Just let me take them. We can handle it."
Jackson: "He's right Vermaak. Let's wait until we can. There's nothing we can do."
*and with that they heard gun shots in the distant.*

Von Kurtz nodded in agreement.

"From our intelligence, we can deduce that the Hungarians will mobilise soon. It would be best to attack as soon as we get word that Moscow has fallen"

[North-East Ohio]

NATO HQ
Kowalski: "Of course. We just need to get Georgia mobilized. I would also like to point out that it would be good to have France mobilize near Italy, in case of a possible Hungarian invasion of France which we believe could be possible."

"Most certainly. Thankfully, we have the Alps on our side."

[North-East Ohio]

NATO HQ
Kowalski: "of course, the Alps have always proved to be a good way of preventing an invasion. But still. Now, is there anything else I can help you with?"

[Britanania]

"No, I believe that is all, Mr. Kowalski. If you need to contact me, I have been relocated to Paris."

[Vergenskia]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

The Emperor sits in front of a television camera and clears his throat in preparation of his explanation of another war. The Non-Slavic population will be in uproar and the Slavs... They will be handled. The red light turns on and Carolus starts... "Greetings ladies and gentlemen of Hungary..."

[Britanania]

Imperial Palace. September 8th, 2059.

Grand Vizier de Ville entered the Emperor's Library and bowed.

"Your Imperial Majesty, the Hungarian Emperor is addressing his subjects."

Lucius said nothing for a long while, as he continued to read his book; A History of Napoleon IV. At last he looked up at the Grand Vizier.

"Report back when it is complete."

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

Prince Anthony Tarkin sat in his room, watching the news. It was at last time, war was about to be declared, ushering the second stage of the Fourth World War

[Vergenskia]

Buda Castle, Budapest, Hungary. September 8th, 2059.

"Russia has become a growing thorn in the sides of the betterment of the non-Slavic peoples in the world. And even now, they are funding the slaughter of Hungarians, Romanians, Albanians, Greeks, Moldovans, Germans, Roma, Jews and Turks. We will not stand for that. We are not going to stand around and watch our people shot, stabbed and burned. The people of Hungary has spoken. They demand we invade. And I am the voice of the people and I call for Russia to burn! Hungary must stand as one and fight the menace that is undermining our very way of life. We shall do such that. Moscow... shall.... Burn!"
