The Rhodo-Eprarian War (Attn:Epraria, Open) [MT]

by **Old Rhodesia** » Sun Apr 07, 2013 10:51 am

Katerinsburg, Rhodesian Federation
In an announcement at midnight, the Rhodesian Federation declared war on Epraria. The Secretary of the Collegiate, Karl Böhm, said that it would be a "liberation of the oppressed Eprarian people, so they can embrace glorious Communism." He has called the small Rhodesian coastline "a mockery of the Rhodesian people", and says that reclaiming East Epraria, which is separated from the rest of Epraria, is the first step to take.

The People's Army is on highest alert for counter-invasions over the long shared borders, and countermeasures for missiles and nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC) threats are on-line. Meanwhile, a large invading segment of the People's Army has crossed the Rhodo-East Eprarian border minutes ago.

1st Expeditionary Force of the People's Army (Ostland)
Initial Objectives: Secure the Rhodesian corridor to the sea and occupy East Epraria.

WIP on ORBAT.

Open broadcasts on loudspeakers tell Eprarians that they will not be harmed if they don't resist or aid the Eprarian military forces still in East Epraria.

(OoC: Check my factbook for the map. No nukes. There's a story behind this that Epraria and I agreed on. Epraria is co-owner and co-host.)

-Today at midnight epraria was invaded by the Forces of the federation of old Rhodesian in an unprovoked sneak attack. We have already lost already lost a few border cities in east epraria like Lirara and Nirosa to the people's army of rhodesia. But we will endure and win this war no matter what. This Is what eprarian president Jose Fernandes said in response to the Rhodesian invasion on live tv report to calm the people.

Epraria has already taken heavy casualties and lost a few border cities like Lirara and Nirosa and has tried to counter attack into the Rhodesian corridor only to meet stiff resistance and heavy casualties against the well prepared people's army. epraria anow asks the rest of the world to help them in this crisis.

Today the epraria air force launched an airstrike against the people's army in east epraria and the Rhodesian corridor with 100 of Eprarias new fighter jet the k42 natteravn and 80 F-a1 streak eagles. The airstrike was used in cooperation with the eprarian 7th assault army to try and break through the stiff defenses in the rhodesian corridor.

Eprarias defense minister antonio garcia said that the forces in east epraria won't hold out with out support from the rest of the country in an interview with Eprarias largest new paper the Arastos journal.

Currently in east epraria rhodesia has taken control of the important east eprarian city of poraka in central east epraria after a bloody and viscous fight against the eprarian garrison.

~ A Missive From The Eon-Long Confederacy Of Aleckandor ~
"Èllöth dûwyck táddh zóv óhlyúdsaeph; örp zóv daizhmín eopèk aihmhē syûmênn."
TO: The Governments Of The Rhodesian Federation & The Federated States Of Epraria
FROM: Pandomonita, Province Of The Republic Of Morast, The Eon-Long Confederacy Of Aleckandor
SUBJECT: "Statement Of Belligerence & Public Declaration Of Participation In The Conflict."
ENCRYPTION KEY: SET-3/5 (Moderately High)
To Whom It May Concern:

The nation, people, and state of the Aleckandorean Confederacy have heard the distant cries of the people of Epraria. We have observed the insidious moves by the uncouth regime of the Rhodesian Federation upon the East Eprarian Corridor, and needless to say, we are utterly disappointed. Such a sovereign, fledgling, and young power that adheres to democracy - albeit, Communist - that is willing to wage war on a fellow sovereign state that shares most governmental values is to be condemned immediately. The Aleckandorean people may be already involved in wars spanning multiple global fronts already, but we must answer the the calls of a brutally attacked people in the name of justice and liberty. I hereby declare war against the Rhodesian Federation and any who wish to support their aggression on the FSE. Subsequently, I extend my best wishes and intentions of friendship towards our distant brothers and sisters of the besieged nation of Epraria. We shall prevail, together!
Cordially Signed,
Confederate Caesar 'Rophtor Wehndyg'

EAST EPRARIAN COAST
1318 HOURS ~ LOCAL TIME

The 17th Naval Task Force of the Grand Aleckandorean Naval Force finally arrived off East Eprarian Coast after taking off from the Dheltohrya Naval Air Station on the Naesckomm Atoll. Operation: 'Killjoy' immediately commenced; massive squadrons of F-10B Super Vanguard strike fighters were launched against Rhodesian armored contingents and air defense artillery units. Several companies of elite Aleckandorean Marines landed on the northern beaches as well, to help spur the ground offensive against the enemy invaders.

Arastos Epraria

The federated states of epraria is eternally grateful for the help and support of the Confederacy of aleckandor against the unprovoked invasion Rhodesia launched against us. We hope that the combined strength of both our nations can put a quick end to this war. This is what Eprarian president Jose Fernandes said in a speech in arastos regarding aleckandors entry to the war. Source the arastos journal

The eprarian air strike against the rhodesian pocket has been deemed a success. Causing major damage however the eprarians lost 13 k42 natteravn and 19 f-a1 streak eagles to heavy ground fire and the 7th assault army has managed to destroy the first lines of defense but was eventually stopped by the rhodesians because of heavy casualties and stiff resistance of the Rhodesian defense. But epraria is closer to east epraria now.

In east epraria the Rhodesians have destroyed most eprarian forces in the area and have closed in to the east eprarian coastline right now and has taken many cities like barato and covona.

From: The Republic of Solmakia

Our government holds a firmly anti communist stance due to the events of a civil war many years ago.
However, after an Solmaki Intelligence Briefing upon your nation, our Chamber of Foreign Affairs has decided that your nation does not constitute Communist, not even merely Socialist.. You are not communists, and we find it quite humorous how you parade yourself as communists.

Your nation's economy is firmly controlled by the private sector, with nearly 75% of all your industries prizatized, and your tax rate a measly 21% compared to most "Communist states"
Furthermore, the Eprarians have a far greater tax rate, and a greater fraction of nationalized business.
We find the Eprarians to be a far more communistic nature. However, that is not the important issue at hand.
Your nation should be wiped off the face of this Earth in accordance to our foreign policy, denouncing all states of a Stalinist nature. Your nation, while devotedly and assuredly capitalist, is a state that offers few to nonexistent civil and political rights. You are not a Communist state at all, you are something even worse; you are fascists.

Thus, our troops will mobilize in support of Epraria, and we strongly urge all communist states to denounce support for your nation, seeing as you don't even follow the practices of true communism. You are undoubtedly waving the banner of communism to reap foreign support.

50,000 Solmakian military personnel have mobilized and are expected to arrive in about 3 days.

USNC forces land in Old Rhodesia as the evacuation process begin. 5,000 men were sent to safely evacuate USNC citizens plus any other socialists or communists that might be wiling to come. if Epraria does not accept this, this means it's war, since we're merely evacuating people with the same ideology, and it is grateful that we did not join Old Rhodesia. Citizens of Gillenor were also being evacuated.

A total of 25 FA-18E's are catapulted from the aircraft carriers to enforce the no-fly zones above the cities. They fly in groups of 3. Any aircraft that enters the no-fly zone will be shot down immediately. RADAR and Communication posts have been set up in the cities and on the fleets to communicate and know where friendlies and hostiles are in the region. 35,000 soldiers are in Epraria as of now, mostly being paradropped in.

The attack submarines of the 3rd, 6th, and 13th Fleets are patrolling the waters. A ballistic missile submarine should arrive by the 13th Fleet in about four hours.

The 35,000 soldiers are in the major cities, but about 5,000 are acting as Military Police, bringing law enforcement to the region. A total of 25 M777 Light-Towed Howitzers are currently being towed to the beaches to be strategically placed around the cities.

The Emperor, Emperor William Atherton, Duke of Central Leanore, will be visiting the region in about twelve hours.

Hello,

What is our plan against the Rhodesia, North China, and Gillenor? There is already a no-fly zone above the cities, so there is no way they will be able to attack there. Also, do you have any fleets around the region? I have intelligence officers that are trying to gain intelligence on the whereabouts of the enemy.

To Leanore
From the Solmaki High Command
Encryption: High

We wish to maintain a firmly defensive war. After quick military analysis, we have come to the conclusion that Old Rhodeasia has little chance of victory. It is significantly smaller, has a small military, less of a budget, and cannot project power efficiently into Epraria. The worst case scenario is that the Old Rhodesians take perhaps a few square kilometers of land, and they know this. Their victory relies on foreign aid and our indecision. They cannot realistically take any more than a few cities.
However, the North States of China has firmly stated that it wishes to simply pull it's personnel out of the nation. Furthermore, the Northern states of China must realize by now that Old Rhodesia is about as communist as a Western Business man; it's a blatantly capitalist nation based primarily on Private enterprise. Their only similarity is their Totalitarian policy.
Gillanore too must realize that this is true, and we expect they will pull their troops out as soon as Northern China pulls out. They are not fighting for communism, and they know this.
If we attack, we risk provocation. We will wait for them to leave, then attack. Until then, all operations should be solely defensive.
