Spokane Civil War[IC]

[Madossa]

:?:
Also, an additional message to the nation of Madossa.
Considering your recent regime change, we have only one thing to say...
Don't make things complicated. If you try and prolong this war and the suffering it causes, then both our forces ending up in conflict is an inevitability. Don't try and use excuses centered around militarism or race or what ever corresponds to your interpretation of Fascism, they will just be ignored and you will still be confronted and most likely eviscerated, provided that the other powers engaged in this conflict despise this ideology.
This is a warning. Follow it wisely...

Official Missive and Statement
The Federation of Madossa does henceforth declare that the Federal Democratic State of New Yugoslavia is erroneous in its criticisms. There has not been any changes in regime in the Federation thus so far; the current Parliamentary government, the National Rally, is not that of a fascist party, nor is there fascist tendencies. Hitherto and henceforth the National Rally has respected all democratic ideals and rights listed out in the Constitution of Madossa.

Henceforth, the obligation of any proper state in this matter is to respond effectively. As such, it is the intent of this state, the Federation of Madossa, to enact the following demands. The Federation requests that any state that has hitherto had intent or enacted action against the Federation of Madossa cease and desist immediately in its aforementioned actions or intents.

Failure to comply with the Federation's demands, failure to respond to this message, or failure to seek an agreement regarding the Federation's demands, will result in trade and economic sanctions, and likely a full embargo on good or services will follow.

New Windsor, Viceroys House:

Within the Durbar hall there was an eerie silence from the assembled military officers who waited intently. On the throne sat the Empress, she was scowling at the statements from the two governments. "Well, it seems that the new Prime Minister of Madossa has her work cut out for her. Since our airlift was completed they have been inundated with denouncements from the other governments." The field marshal nods. "Yes, it seems that the rest of the international community are up in arms from the recent regime change in Madossa, even though it was for all intensive purposes a democratic election." The Empress nods. "Quite right, I belive the time has come for the Raj to truly throw its hand into the ring on this matter." She turns to the fleet Admiral, Alexander Mountbatten, brother to the King of England. "Fleet Admiral, prepare a task force, two battleships, four carriers and forty or so escorting ships and have them rendezvous within the Indian ocean before sailing close to the Gulf of Lion through the Suez Canal, keep them outside Madossan waters at all times and order that a 15 mile exclusion zone be maintained around the fleet at all times once they reach this location. Then I want full battle drills to be carried out, gunfire practice, missile launches, depth charging drills, everything you can think of. I want to rattle the Madossan Government to its core gentlemen. Make them remember that the Raj was the victor in the last war, and will be the victor of the next if it comes to it." The assembled officers bow deeply to the Empress before leaving the room. The Empress sits back in the throne, her silver crown resting comfortably on her head. The Empress then whispers to herself. "Let's shake them up a bit shall we?"

Hotel near Curzon's residence

Frank couldn't stop pacing. His bodyguards watched him through a camera they'd installed connected to a laptop in another room. Frank had said their presence was distracting him. He needed to find out how bad the situation was in Madossa, to see what should be done, but Curzon appeared to come first for the former Prime Minister, despite the problems they caused where ever they went it seemed.

Frank stopped, realizing something. He had a plan that just might work, maybe....

Jacob picked up the phone.

"Yes?"

Martin asked “Could you forward the case file on your civil war? We think we’ve might've found something that could change everything, including the chance that Spokane won’t be a destructive wasteland after this war.”

A message to the nation of Madossa.
We are not intent on waging war with you, unless provoked of course. This is mearly just a warning in case you try anything too extreme. I know that you don't consider yourselves fascist, but then again, but that's the image fascist's would try and apply to themselves considering their not-so-savory history. Just because you're party was democratically elected doesn't necessarily mean you support the system. The same thing happened with Hitler and the National socialists and we are all aware of how that panned out (yes, an obvious and tired example, but a good one non the less).
However, this is not a deceleration of war or any other form of conflict. We can still work together, but we, and by extension the international community are skeptical.
We mean you no harm...provided you mean no harm to us.
-President Pavlik.

Spokane, Chattaroy, around 30 miles away from the capital city of Spokane:

The Royal Army had been slowly making its way south after the unprecedented success of the offensives in the north, the rebellious region being brought to heel, far quicker than anyone in the international community had expected it to be thanks to the Empresses 'Unorthodox' methods. But reports began to emerge from a few miles from various civilian and Spokane military sources, that the Fallen Angels had left a token force In the north and were planning an offensive south, on the Spokane capital itself, while Raj forces were distracted with subduing the north. The General ordered that the faster tanks, self propelled artillery and elite mechanised infantry divisions head south immediately and engage the force. Around a 1/4 of the main army.

A Raj flying column comprised of 100 challenger tanks, 30 self propelled artillery and 7,000 mechanised infantry had overtaken the enemy forces using the nearby woods to cut them off and would engage them from the front and keep them from advancing further or retreating while the main force smashes into them from behind and surrounds them. The Raj air force was also coming into play by providing close air support with missiles, cannon and bombs to hamper enemy resistance further and provide cover for the ground forces while dealing with any stragglers by using mostly Apache helicopters and F-35's shipped in from the Raj. The enemy had around 5,000 troops in total with trucks and other vehicles taking them to the Spokane capital, The Spokane forces were completely out of position to stop them as they were quelling revolts further south.

A radio signal is received in the generals Challenger 2, from the commander of the flying column saying they are in position and are preparing for the engagement with Fallen Angel forces. He gives a nod and responds. "Order him to engage at his leisure, main force ETA is around 40 minutes from current time."

(OOC: Obviously all requested edits by Spokane will be made, this has come from a telegram conversation I had from him.)

[Significance]

Attention: Nations of the world
Given recent events, Emperor Frank Damon, of Significance, will be making a tour of Madossa, talking to it's people, in the hopes of understanding the events unfolding there from the ground level. He will also hopefully speak to politicians and the current leader of Madossa. All this will be done to see if a peacful solutions to rising tensions can be found, before another war breaks out.
Signed, Prime Minister Hayley Sinclair

Spokane

Significance also got information pertaining to the upcoming attack, and Jets were rerouted to attack the supply lines of these forces, in the hopes of running their supplies dry before they reached their target, or at least severely weakening their ability to fight.

"Yes?"

Martin asked “Could you forward the case file on your civil war? We think we’ve might've found something that could change everything, including the chance that Spokane won’t be a destructive wasteland after this war.”

"Of course, just give me a moment"

Replied Jacob, and he started to get the files up on his computer, before sending them to Martin's computer, he then waited to see if Martin found what he was looking for.

Southern Madossa

The Emperor's jet landed at an airport in southern Madossa, and as Frank went to get out, he wondered just how his arrival would be recieved.

Martin’s office
Martin swore, before sending Jacob a screenshot of the file he was talking about. He explained through the phone “Do you remember the experiments that the rebels would do in your civil war?”

Jacob was puzzled.

"Yes, they were working on experimental weapons, a lot of things outlawed by the Geneva convention, and other things most nations wouldn't dare touch. But when the SIS was reformed, we destroyed all that data and evidence. If you are suggesting what I think you are suggesting..."

He trailed off. The consequences of the possible scenario could be catastrophic.

"Martin, tell me exactly what you know. If you are trying to say what I think you are trying to say, we need to warn everyone as soon as possible"

Martin responded “I know for a fact that the Fallen Angels have been buying weapons and plans from various people, including 5 significant people from Significance that have ties to the civil war, from both sides. We had a breach in the Team Omega compound, where the team was experimenting with some stuff involving nuclear weapons and other risky stuff. The breach can’t be traced to who entered the database and the compound, meaning it’s probable that the Fallen Angels were behind it. I suspect that somebody with access to the Raj’s city destroying technology may have been selling it to them. For what I’m trying to say is that we’re fucked.”

Jacob cursed.

"That's the least of our worries, trust me. I can deal with the Significance arms sellers. Significance has private companies selling weapons to everyone all the time. If someone has found a way to gather information on experimental weapons however, especially the weapons the KRO were working on, everyone is in danger.

Bio-Engineering. It'd make Bio-weapons look like child's play. It could be as simple as bringing back small pox, or, as advanced as a disease that only targets a single individual. They can be made to look like normal diseases, or made to be untraceable. Completely insidious. We must warn everyone"

Fallen Angels
Aaron smirked as two of his men brought him a very special bomb. Now, this wasn’t just any ordinary bomb, it was made by the KRO and was a Bio-Bomb. This thing was twice as powerful as a nuke, but the best part was that it was mostly invisible and would make people ill very quick and easy. It could kill millions in a day , billions in a week, and if there had been trillions on this planet they would be all gone within a month. Aaron and his men had foresaw killing everybody because in Aaron’s eyes, the entire planet had become leached with a terrible disease. It’s name was Capitalism.

[British St Helena]

Brigadier General Lefcourt watched the vehicles get closer to his entrenched position, the drone was flying above the enemy convoy and was relaying a direct video-feed to him. They were around 30 seconds away from optimal firing range which in this case was point blank. The section of road which they were planning on ambushing the enemy had been mined with explosives which will detonate as soon as the button was pushed.
He radios his men for one final order ‘This is the Brigadier, once the combat begins prisoners are to be taken at any opportunity. I want the commander alive.’ The rest of the troops acknowledge before he then says as his timer turns to zero. ‘All ground units, OPEN FIRE! Air units are to hold back in reserve!’

The rebel forces didn’t even know what him them before it was too late. One moment they were speeding towards the capital, the next they were propelled from the blackened smoking vehicles in a blinding flash as the road beneath them literally exploded in a hail of superheated asphalt. Not even a second later they were being cut down by machine gun fire, shell fire and cannon fire as armoured vehicles began pouring out from behind the bushes and trees along the sides of the road. The machine guns and cannons mounted on them continued to cut down men, the terrorists in complete disarray at this point tried to retreat only to have 70 Challenger tanks slam into the rear of them unleashing another wave of machine gun fire, scything through the retreating terrorists. The area at this point was covered in black arid smoke from the explosions and gunfire and it is hard to see where one is going.
Desperation setting in, the remaining thousand or so terrorists managed to find cover and form a square with a singular terrorist yelling down a radio on an open channel causing a slight lull in the battle the message being ‘We have hostages! Set us free and we will let them go!’ the Brigadier receiving this message this ordered ‘All units surround them but hold fire’ The fighting stops almost immediately as Raj troops surround the terrorist formation, guns pointed directly at them at close range.

A white flag is produced from one of the armoured vehicles as Major Smith walks out in front of the Raj formation as tanks, armoured and machine guns begin to be placed behind said formation. “Brave Spokanians! You have done all that the honour of war requires Our General, the honourable Francis Lefcourt invites you to save your lives! Will you agree to surrender as prisoners of war and return the hostages?!” There is a brief silence, the determination on the terrorists however were etched on their faces as its leader responds. ‘Life has no meaning if our cause does not succeed and we do not have our freedom.’ He takes out a pistol and shoots the hostages, a middle-aged man who seemed of no import and a young woman who seemed the same. The Major turns away, walking back to the now dispersing Raj formation, the barrels of all the various guns now directly pointing at the terrorists. After he retreats behind the vehicles he grabs a radio and yells ‘FIIIIIIRREEEE!’
There were not many left after the blast, their leader was found and dragged out of the piles of bodies kicking and screaming curses, after he attempted to shoot with the damaged pistol. He was obviously shielded from the blast by his men. 30 others survived with various injuries. The Brigadier ordered that the terrorists be taken captive and then taken to General Barnett who would be arriving shortly for interrogation.

(OOC: As usual all edits asked for by the relevant parties will be considered or made. But in short, this was always going to be a very one-sided battle from the get-go.)

Spokane Captiol
King Harrison frowned as he walked out of the office. Something was wrong, very wrong here. He couldn’t put his finger on it, but his gut told him to run. Then there was a explosion, right under his foot. He fell, shouting “HELP!” Yet no one came until a half and hour later, and found the king dead. The bomb had triggered him to have a heart attack. The Second Sovereign of Spokane was dead. His eldest, Prince William was now King William the first.
