Defense of The River Treir (Or Pelain idk)
Status update:
First Phase - Fortify | Status: Underway, (83% complete)
The First Phase calls for the fortification of the River Treir, this involves building watchtowers, making barracks halls to accomodate stationed troops near the Treir, and dig trench lines in a joint operation with Novaya Maskiyan troops. This stage also involves mappong out skirmish points where a well trained irregular troop can have a great advantage over enemy troops, skirmish points are locations like trees and small half-buried glacial erratics (small boulders protruding from the ground) and any natural location that provides good cover or concealment, and much better, both. It also utilizes the construction of tank scrapes to provide friendly armor with hull-down positions.
Commander's notes:
The troops are hard working, and very motivated! On missions, they get things done, and they keep the tanks in running order, and I'm surprised. Everything is in tip-top condition, and they work hard day and night to map out skirmish points. They're fucking awesome. I've never seen them build fortifications like this! I gotta say, we need to give these chaps a pay raise.
High command response:
A pay raise of 500 Floridamarks per soldier is underway.

Captain Mongolor Uguhumugo, a seasoned leader known for his tactical brilliance, stands on the bridge of the infamous aircraft carrier Guavanna (GN Guavanna), his eyes fixed on the strategic map displaying the upcoming amphibious assault on The Will's eastern territory. Engaged in a discussion with his trusted officers, anticipation fills the air as they finalize their plans to secure the city of Terihil, located 200 kilometers west of the strike group's nearest coastal position.

Captain Uguhumugo, known for his calm demeanor and meticulous attention to detail, addresses his officers gathered on the bridge. "Gentlemen, our previous strikes have effectively neutralized the coastal defenses and logistics, paving the way for the amphibious assault on Terihil. The time has come to execute the next phase of our operation and establish our presence on enemy soil."

The officers listen attentively, their faces reflecting the gravity of the upcoming mission. Captain Uguhumugo continues, "Our primary objective is the takeover of Terihil, a crucial city that holds strategic importance. Our success here will not only deal a significant blow to The Will but also bolster the position of The Republic. Our forces on the ground are ready to support our amphibious assault and secure the city's key infrastructure."

Pointing to the map, Captain Uguhumugo highlights the planned approach. "We will utilize the Anadolu-class amphibious assault ships alongside the Gerald R. Ford-class carriers to transport our troops and equipment to the designated landing zones. The previous strikes have cleared the way, but we must remain vigilant. The enemy may attempt to regroup or launch countermeasures. Our air superiority will be crucial in providing cover and support throughout the assault."

One of the officers interjects, "Captain, what about The Will's remaining forces in the area? Do we expect significant resistance?"

Captain Uguhumugo acknowledges the officer's concern and replies, "Intelligence reports suggest that The Will's forces in the region have been severely weakened by our previous strikes. However, we must remain prepared for any surprises. The Guavanna's air wing, consisting of our Su-57K and F-35 Lightning II fighters, will maintain air superiority and conduct continuous reconnaissance to detect any enemy movements or potential threats."

Turning his gaze back to the map, Captain Uguhumugo continues, "Our coordinated effort with the ground forces will be critical. Our troops, well-trained and highly motivated, are eager to secure Terihil and establish a foothold for The Republic. We must provide them with the necessary support, including suppressing enemy positions, clearing landing zones, and maintaining a constant supply chain."

With a steely determination, Captain Uguhumugo concludes, "Gentlemen, the upcoming amphibious assault on Terihil will test our mettle. But we have the advantage of preparation, superior firepower, and unwavering resolve. Our mission is to bring stability and freedom to the people of Hidrandia. I have every confidence that, together, we will succeed. Let us execute our plan with precision and ensure the swift capture of Terihil."

As the officers disperse, each one filled with a sense of duty and commitment, the bridge of the Guavanna buzzes with activity. The crew prepares for the critical mission ahead, knowing that their actions will shape the course of the conflict and contribute to the restoration of peace in Hidrandia. Captain Uguhumugo, ever vigilant, stands at the helm, ready to lead his crew and strike a decisive blow against The Will's resistance.

[Ayshire]

Major General Fergussion Miller eyed the map one last time before the other officers packed it up and quickly went to board the transport trucks. It was decided that Medonia would be their base of operations, the spot chosen was near the Republic and Medonian border in the southeast of the island. He breathed in the fresh air and stared off for a bit taking in the beauty of the land that was before him. He was snapped out of it after one of the younger officers called out to him, taking one last look he hurried over and before hopping in a little car gave the lead truck a quick slap on the side. The lead one took off followed by the others as they made way to their destination, Fergussion and the other officers were in a small car which would act as their command vehicle. He quickly layed the map down on the table in the middle while a few of the others were getting used to the bumps.

He sighed once more, he still needed a way to contact any allied forces, especially the Galapagosians. He was sure that they alone could probably handle the entire war by themselves, but he had been ordered to try and group up with, "To make the war go by quicker and end hostilities" he was told but he didn't buy any of it. Orders are orders though but to him making contact with the Galapagosians was a secondary objective, getting their footing was first importantly. He had also recieved a message from the Marshal himself, but he had decided not to tell the other officers not yet, they were still hopeful about the future campaign especially the soldiers themselves.

He shook his head, had he know what a warmonger the Marshal was back then he would've spoken out or aided the Princess's small rebellion. But alas it was too late, and all of that was in the past now all that mattered was him getting his men through this. He knew that later on none of them would ever be the same, and that the Marshal would only send more and more men to die.

It seemed that the Galapagos bots were working, there were so many posts with the video that the administrations of the social networks and websites themselves were unable to delete them all, and the agency too, unfortunately, many of them went viral, and it was impossible to deny it, after all , who believes the word of a secret agency? Shortly after this video went viral, which the NIA clearly knew was fake, there were some "setbacks" as the military defined it.

IC

For 5 days straight, riots that started earlier in the week after the fake videos went viral, but which were convincing enough to convince the Harryan population who took to the streets in the national capital, Harryville, to protest, the movement peaked in third day of protests, when protesters from other states of Harry Islands arrived, and thanks to the free carrying of weapons under licensing, the demonstrators were also armed, even if, with only pistols, the police saw this, and summoned the local Military Police, who preferred to fight the protests using rifle ammunition rather than tear gas and pepper sprays, the protesters so far, peacefully, were attacked with shots fired in a "controlled" way, according to the local Military Police battalion, to disperse the crowd. crowd, but the opposite happens, and a shootout starts in front of the Executive Garden, in front of the presidential palace. The protests ended on the fifth day, with 28 dead, 721 injured, and 792 people arrested, without a doubt, the population would not leave the police unpunished, mainly due to the great violence used by the police.

[The Military State of the Galapagos]

The Galapagos had never expected the false video to work so well. The Hirandian response was unknown so far however the Harryian one was completely unexpected in both its size and its effectiveness. The best part was it made more propaganda free of cost. Now you had a dedicated team scouring the web for any videos of the massacres on a multitude of forums mainly focused on Harryian and other international websites. If a video was to be found it would be transferred to the department that had originally produced the first video. From here it was a few simple edits sometimes a woman screaming would be played in the background when it was appropriate. Sometimes it was a child, whatever was the voice added in it was always silenced by a gunshot. This time the process was repeated with completely new links and a server always stored more links to the videos which always had a multitude of methods that it could be uploaded on. The target this time was different targeting forums and social networks inside and used by the Harry Islands. It was hoped that these would spread both to the disgruntled civilian population and in the military camps that were inside Hirandia.

Not willing to sit back and wait Galapagosian military brass would begin an actual ‘offensive’ against Will forces. The classification of ‘offensive’ was generous however as the attackers generally consisted of a probing force of around 15-30 men. They would be dressed in Harry uniforms and attack known Harryian locations with everything from firearms to molotovs. After engaging the target and firing off a few rounds they would retreat either east or west before heading back south to Galapagosian encampments. This would be combined with remote disinformation efforts, attempts to compromise the radio waves of Harryian and will forces and transmit opposing and confusing orders. These would range from a total retreat of Harryian forces, to an immediate full assault against the commune, to the declaration of the New Harry Republic in Hirandia, and the request of will forces to surrender their arms to the forces of their new rulers, The Harry Isles. All of this was meant to make the Will at the very least suspicious of their new allies and to make the Harry Isles troops disorganized. There was also drone runs against Harryian and Will positions with little papers explaining how and where to safely surrender to Galapagos forces along with a description of how they would be treated fairly and humanely.

With all this set there was only waiting for how it would go as the Galapagos didn’t want to launch their incursion into Medonia without the Lakans consent.

Poll: Completed.
Results: 75% in favor of intervention, passing critical factor of 60%. President, do you approve?
Yes/No
Neri Virtanen stared at the computer screen on his desk for a moment, considering his next move. He was certainly a pacifist, but perhaps an intervention was necessary. After all, how else could the Rigel Pact show the world its true power?
He clicked the "Yes" option, and waited for a response.
Accepted. Prepare the troops.
Hammerfest Militærbase, Provincial Mandate of Sápmi, The Astral Mandate
A massive crowd of soldiers stood at the base's harbor, waiting patiently for their assigned warships. With only 15 vessels to carry 25,000 people (20,000 troops and 5,000 crew), along with 500 tanks, the ships would be full to capacity. However, in classic Astralite fashion, they'd make it work.
Infantry Corps 36, Finnish Operations Corps:
All dialogue translated.
Lieutenant-General Jaako "Jack" Aalto:
"Troops! Loyal soldiers! Today is the finest our in our history, and the first military intervention by The Astral Mandate since The Tsui! Can we make it count?"
"YES, SIR!"

All dialogue translated.
Lieutenant-General Roald Olsen:
"Today, I tell you, fortune will favor us in our struggle against aggression and fascism. The violent enemy shall never prevail! Do you, soldiers, stand with us on this momentous occasion?"
"YES, SIR!"
There were two other corps there that day, also heading onto the boats, Corps 44 (Finnish) and 135 (Norwegian), each composed of 5,000 of The Astral Mandate's greatest troops.

•Phase 4 of Operation Fire Felon•
The Landing

As the previous strikes along the coastline proved successful in neutralizing remaining enemy forces, the Guavalandian Army stands poised to commence the crucial landing operation, marking the beginning of Phase 3 of Operation Fire Felon. The 2 Anadolu-class amphibious assault ships, teeming with firepower and troops, take center stage in this next stage of the operation.

From the deck of the amphibious assault ships, a fleet of 20 RaiderX combat utility helicopters and 15 360 Invictus attack helicopters gracefully lifts off into the sky. With a thunderous roar, their rotors slice through the air as they ascend to their designated altitudes. These agile aircraft will provide close air support, reconnaissance, and transport capabilities, ensuring the safety and effectiveness of the forthcoming landing.

Simultaneously, a convoy of 20 landing boats, each bearing a formidable composition of military might, emerges from the amphibious assault ships. These boats carry a formidable array of equipment, including 1 Panther KF51 Main Battle Tank (MBT), 2 T-90M MBTs, 2 BTR-90 troop carriers and 200 highly trained soldiers. The troops are prepared for the challenges ahead, their resolve unwavering as they embark on the mission to capture towns along the way and steadily advance towards the ultimate target: Terihil, a major city situated 200 kilometers from their current position.

The landing boats gracefully navigate the coastal waters, expertly avoiding any remaining hazards, while their accompanying helicopters maintain an aerial shield, providing surveillance and security. As the boats reach the shoreline, the ramps lower, and soldiers pour out, establishing a foothold on The Will's territory. With precision and discipline, they secure the immediate vicinity, ensuring the safety of the landing zone and preparing for subsequent operations.

Meanwhile, in Izmir, the 5 America-class amphibious assault ships are undergoing intensive preparations. Fueling up and stocking essential supplies, these vessels are set to join the operation as a formidable reinforcement. With their arrival expected in approximately three days, they will provide additional support to the ongoing invasion, bolstering the Guavalandian forces and further tipping the scales in favor of Operation Fire Felon.

Back on the ground, the Guavalandian soldiers move swiftly, capturing towns along their path towards Terihil. They encounter pockets of resistance, but their superior training and firepower allow them to overcome these challenges. The population, yearning for stability and freedom, witnesses the arrival of the Guavalandian forces as a beacon of hope amidst the chaos of war.

As Phase 3 of Operation Fire Felon unfolds, the Guavalandian Army remains resolute, advancing steadily towards their target. They understand the significance of their mission and the impact it will have on the overall conflict. With the imminent arrival of the America-class amphibious assault ships, the Guavalandian forces are reinforced, poised to overcome any obstacles and drive towards victory.

The next chapter of Operation Fire Felon begins, as Guavalandia's military machine pushes forward, inch by inch, towards the city of Terihil, with their sights set on securing The Will's territory and bringing about the desired outcome in the name of peace and stability.

Current distance from Terihil: 190 km

SIC [Commune Forces]

Operation "Rolling Waves", also known as "17.22 FM" is an operation in which the Russian (Novaya Maskiyan) engineers would set up a radio station for The Commune and spread Pro-Communist and Pro-Socialist ideals across the region of Hindrandia and also provide songs to civilians and troops to keep on fighting no matter what happens! 17.22 FM would also act as a way to spread coded messages in the future if needed. 17.22 FM's second main mission besides playing songs and possible coded messages is to waste time for The Commune's enemies trying to decode 17.22 FM.


Radio Operator "Keystone": You're listening to, Commune Radio!! Keystone pressed his soundboard and flying artillery plays

Radio Operator "Keystone": On 17.22 FM!! Keystone pressed his soundboard and played heavy machine gun fire

Radio Operator "Keystone": REAL SONGS, REAL WAR!!! Keystone pressed on his soundboard again and played a clip of "The Sacred War" and The Commune forces yelling

Radio Operator "Keystone": THIS ISN'T YOUR GRANDMOTHER'S STATION NOW!! Keystone would play the song Касета, after Касета, "The Sacred War" would start to play, with more and more war time and Pro-Communist and Pro-Socialist songs playing around the clock

[Freier Sozialistischer Staat Florida]

The FSSF offers to design and construct a CBUS (Contingency Broadcasting Unit System) in case all 17.22 FM facilities are somehow destroyed or rendered nonfunctional by conventional or nuclear war. These CBUS facilities are to remain manned but never must come online until all above ground facilities are destroyed or rendered nonfunctional. The CBUS facilities will provide basic survival scripts and also instructions from the OSS simple sabotage manual.
Meanwhile the FSSF has also delivered a single AI piloted ADF-11F “Perigrine” purchased from the SRoM for an exorbitant 35 Billion NSD. It is able to shear unarmored bits off enemy planes with a pulse laser with insane precision, and capable of replicating perfect aerobatic maneuvers with 0.01% margin of error. It will be used for propaganda purposes by using its ultra-long-range radio unit to broadcast 17.22 FM during it’s patrol missions, but that is after we get Novaya Maskiya’s go-ahead to do so.

OOC: yeah that right I’m a SRoM alt and I was too lazy to make a new plane so I purchased some planes from my own store and am using them here.

An overview of the British intervention in the conflict

The British intervention in the war against the Comune and the Republic is a complex and multifaceted issue. It is not only a matter of military action, but also of political and economic strategy. The British will soon play a significant role in the conflict, both in terms of their military support for the Will and in terms of the financial and diplomatic backing they have provided.

In terms of the military campaign, the British have been active from the beginning, both in terms of providing advisers to the Will and in terms of providing material support. British military forces are soon to be involved in combat operations against the Comune and the Republic, as well as providing logistical and technical support. The British have also provided financial assistance to the Will in the form of loans and grants, and they have provided diplomatic assistance, including help with negotiations and mediation.

In terms of economic strategy, the British have provided support for the Will's economic development , including investments in infrastructure, education, and healthcare. They have also provided support for the Will's efforts to strengthen the country's agricultural sector and to diversify its economy.

The British intervention in the war against the Comune and the Republic is believe to have a significant impact on the conflict. British military and economic support have helped to turn the tide in the war in favor of the Will, and the British diplomatic efforts have helped to forge a lasting peace in the region. However, the British intervention is not without its critics. Some argue that the British have undermined the autonomy of the Will, and that their support for the Will has been used to further British interests.

Overall, the British intervention in the war against the Comune and the Republic is soon to be a significant factor in the conflict. It has provided the Will with the necessary resources and diplomatic support to fight against the Comune and the Republic and to achieve lasting peace in the region. However, it is important to remember that the British intervention is not without its critics, and that it must be assessed in the context of the wider geopolitical dynamics in the region.

[The Astral Mandate]

As Corps 36, 44, 135, and 142 pulled into a harbor on the Republic-controlled islands to the east, an announcement was played from the loudspeakers of one of the ships, spoken by Lieutenant-General Jaako Aalto:
"Fellow democracy-loving citizens of the world,
we come in peace. We come to defend your free and democratic nation, now ravaged by war. I tell you all, the Will cannot stand against the forces of Democracy and Peace. We have decided to join you in your struggle to defend democracy in Hidrandia, and other members of the Rigel Pact should soon follow suit. Lastly, thank you for allowing us to land here. We'll probably land even more here in the future, but we'll make sure not to overstay our welcome. Thank you."

[Guavalandia]

•The Ambush•

The mechanized convoy, consisting of a formidable force of 90 main battle tanks, 60 armored personnel carriers, and 6,000 determined soldiers, continues its advance along the highway leading directly to Terihil. The resounding roar of helicopters fills the air as 35 attack and combat utility helicopters skillfully maneuver overhead, tasked with protecting the convoy from any potential threats.

As the convoy progresses, moving ever closer to its destination, an unforeseen challenge arises. Suddenly, a group of Will soldiers emerges from the surrounding bushes, catching the convoy by surprise. In an instant, an anti-tank missile streaks through the air, striking one of the T-90M MBTs with a powerful impact. The missile shatters the side armor of the tank, but fortunately, the tank remains operational, its crew undeterred by the attack.

Reacting swiftly, the infantry accompanying the convoy springs into action. A hailstorm of gunfire erupts, as the soldiers open fire on the location from which the anti-tank missile was launched. High-explosive shells from the tanks rain down on the area, delivering a devastating barrage that obliterates the surrounding bushes. Tracers illuminate the battlefield as gunfire fills the air, momentarily transforming the serene forest into a chaotic battleground.

Gradually, the intensity of the firefight subsides, and silence descends upon the flattened forest. The encounter has left its mark, serving as a stark reminder of the dangers that lie ahead. Recognizing the need for increased vigilance, the convoy regroups, ensuring that all vehicles and personnel are accounted for and ready to proceed.

From that point on, the convoy proceeds with heightened caution, fully aware of the potential for further ambushes or surprise attacks. The soldiers remain on high alert, maintaining a constant state of readiness as they navigate the treacherous path towards Terihil. Each step forward is accompanied by a careful scan of the surrounding terrain, prepared to react swiftly to any signs of enemy activity.

As the mechanized convoy continues its journey, the sounds of gunfire and explosions fade into the distance, replaced by an air of determination and caution. They understand that the road ahead is fraught with danger, but they remain undeterred, determined to overcome any obstacles that stand in their way. Their focus is fixed on reaching Terihil, where the final stages of Operation Fire Felon will unfold, bringing them closer to their ultimate goal of achieving peace and stability in Hidrandia.

Distance from Terihil: 182 kilometers

North Terihil, The Commune

It was midnight when the Skies lit up in flames. A formation of Will Bombers had unleashed their fury onto the City. Too many people died, it was a disaster, but it showed that the Will was escalating once more. Now the Republic and the Commune would respond by begining to build their own planes. Along with this artillery strikes would be launched all across the Front. It seemed like full out war would break out soon.
