The Empire of Yeldashay
To: Dux Harrison Tobjorn of the Union of Integrist Territories
From: President Coenred Leodwalding of the Republic of Deira

We regret to inform you that our revolution has succeeded in a very real way. We are not a violent rogue state. Rather, we are a democratic Republic that the Empire of Yeldashay claims to own. Our people are fighting for their freedom, human rights and homes and, in truth, it is the Yeldans who are the aggressors.
Nevertheless, you have declared war on us and we must do our utmost to defend ourselves from your Integrist principles and armed forces. Expect the last thing you see to be a Deiran holding a gun, Dux Tobjorn.

"Have you seen this, Wuffing?" asked the President to his General, showing him the Integrist declaration of war. The sickening lies written upon it angered both men but immediately Wuffing had thought of a solution.
" I will send Colonel Leodwalding back to Zeray. He has 870 men left. He says about two hundred Yeldans escaped giving the enemy a combined total of approximately 1000. We cannot spare a single soldier from the east at the moment so he will have to work hard and show his worth to win."




Colonel Leodwalding had been about to board the train that would take him back to the east of Deira when the orders came through that he was to guard Zeray against an Integrist force numbering slightly less than his own. Immediately he had formulated a plan.
"1st Sarkid Legion, enter Zeray and create an easily defensible position. 2nd Sarkid Legion, take out all remaining loyalist troops." Alcmund took the 370-strong 2nd Legion into the forests above Zeray that night where the Yeldans were known to hide and managed to kill 17 groups of around 10 scattered accross the forest. That left 30 to kill tomorrow.
When the 2nd legion finally arrived in Zeray the 1st had dug minefields in the outskirts, put roadblocks in strategic places and snipers in central buildings. The 2nd legion made its base at the town hall in the central square. The Deirans were ready.

Dust from the plains kicked up in the air behind the columns of Integritist tanks. Flags fluttered in the wind and engines growled. Colonel Mitchell rode at the head, he looked back at his forces. He was looking at his forces, he smiled thinking about how much he could do with so many well-trained, well-funded soldiers. He had experienced soldiers, tanks, artillery, savage barbarians, and the famous 'mosquito' helicopters near by.
(OOC: Mosquito helis have large flamethrowers, used them in a Slaver's Ambition)

The convoy moved through a forest... the hairs on Colonel Mitchell's neck pricked. He spoke to his eyes in the sky on the walkie-talkie, "Keep an eye out."

The helicopter pilot responded, "Can't see anything, but the foliage is very ... BOOM!" a missile slammed into the side of an Integritist tank. All hell broke loose. Most of the tanks crews were veterans of the large ambush in the Celtan Liberation, they had survived once and used the same tactic that saved them then. The tanks broke ahead of the group, going at full speed. The total carnage made it difficult to move but not impossible. The infantry threw down smoke grenades and took cover as best they could. The Mosquitoes leaped into action once Colonel Mitchell called for immediate back up. They fired their machine guns into the forest line and using their machine guns to try and pin the enemy opened the side doors and shot fire into the greenery.

Once the smoke had cleared the infantry prepared themselves for bullets, or surrendering soldiers coming out of the forest.

29 soldiers were killed, and 57 seriously wounded in the ambush.




Bryne, Union of Integritist Territories

200 tanks departed for Zeray. Their intention was to flank, then attack the city from the Southwest while the main army attacked from the Northeast.

Colonel Leodwalding had just heard reports of the ambush Northeast of Zeray. The bulk of the Integrist army had come from there as he had predicted and their infamous Mosquito helicopters had killed nearly 40 men. Despite this the 2nd Legion had carried on the onslaught for nearly half an hour and seperated the tanks from the main infantry.
"Pass the word for the 2nd Legion to fall back. Send half the tanks to wherever the Integrist ones are. The other 130 will go south to the roadblocks there. I have a feeling they will go round to flank us there."
As his orders were sent to the officers under his command Alcmund Leodwalding wondered if he would get any more troops. From his cousin's tone of voice on the telephone that morning he had a strong suspicion that he would have to do the best he could with the ever-lessening number he had. 830 and counting...down.

The tanks that had escaped the ambush swung eastward to cut off the Deiran forces retreating out the forest. They had bloodrage and were utterly ruthless. As the columns of tanks at full throttle headed to intercept the soldiers falling back, Integritist helicopters and UAVs provided them with reconaissance information.

The infantry remained in the forest as ambulances and medical personnel arrived to tend to both the Integritist and Deiran wounded.

Inside an Integritist tank...

Colonel Mitchell was fuming. He was speaking to the Dux. "The b*stards ambushed us. We need to teach what happens when you use such underhand tactics against the UIT!"

The Dux responded with a tone of authority. "We shall not abandon our principals because of how our enemy fights against us. It is easy to stand by the tenets of Integritism in times of peace, we must stand by them in war too. It shall be difficult, but through hardship our metal is truly tested." He allowed Colonel Mitchell to absorb what he said. "I shall order bombers from Bryne and Aleburgh to attack defensive positions and areas of military importance in Zeray, but I shall not perform some kind of aerial blitz against the civilians."

130 Leopard 2 tanks thundered to the forest where the ambush had taken place. The Integrists had halted for a while there and the wounded were being cared for. there would be more where they came from when the tank division reached them.


Colonel Leodwalding descended the steps into the living room of the house he had commandeered in the centre of Zeray. He wished he had an air force squadron with him to pound the hell out of the Integrist forces before they reached the fourth-largest city in Deira. Unfortunately the President and General Wuffing did not see the importance of the west in their quest for victory against Yeldashay.
"Keep the anti-aircraft guns in place across the city" ordered Leodwalding "and make sure everyone is ready for the big urban battle." Deira was within grasp of victory even though they hadonly the slightest majority over the Integrist regiments.


In Nybril President Leodwalding had met with his General in desperation over the Yeldan situation. Both sides had no capacity to invade the other and only the Yeldans wanted to continue the fight. The Deiran economy was badly shaken as nearly half the government budget was going to the armed forces. The Yeldans were building replacement ships to send troops on but national morale had taken a massive blow after the battle of Lapan Strait. That was why President Coenred Leodwalding had intstructed General Wuffing to execute the 'Final Solution'. Literally.

One of the helicopters running a recon mission spotted the huge group of Deiran tanks. Colonel Mitchell was immediately informed. Colonel Mitchell ordered all helicopters to engage the tanks, troops in the forest to set up an ambush, and called in an air strike. The aircraft were not close, and would likely not arrive on time.

The mosquitoes came together and fired at the Deiran tanks from above. Some of them lowered to just above the tanks and opened up with flamethrowers on them. The machine guns sprayed off of the tanks. The gunners aimed for the tracks. One bullet ricocheted off of a tank's armour and killed the pilot of the helicopter. The helicopter went down in the group of tanks.

The Integritist troops in the forest heard of the approaching tanks; and had little time to prepare. 70 or so went into the forest in front of the bulk of the Integritist infantry. The men that lay in wait were armed with anti-tank missiles, and were from the veteran Laplander regiment. The rest of the Integritist forces took cover in the rubble of destroyed Integritist tanks, and personnel carriers. The wounded, both Integritist and Deiran were evacuated in troop carriers towards the UIT. The Integritist artillery that was at the back of the convoy set their range, and prepared to fire.




The city of Zeray, Deira

Integritist bombers escorted by fighters, could be heard in the darkness of the night. They had been ordered to bomb: 1. Anti-air guns and spotlights 2. Defences (i.e. roadblocks, pillboxes) 3. Military buildings (i.e. the barracks)




South of Zeray, Deira

The Integritist tanks were ordered to delay their attack on Zeray and to secure a strategic hilltop near Zeray for future artillery placement.

The Deiran tanks thundered into the Integrist line with only a few losses from the Mosquitos despite their furious onslaught. When the Integrist infantry opened fire the Leopard 2 tanks really benefited from the adaptions that the Deiran government had paid for with the huge military budget at their disposal.


A Deiran spy had been sent to Zakalon, a colony of Yeldashay. As he climbed up the wall of the house he was targeting he wondered who owned it. It was a large house, bordering on being a mansion and it was well-protected by a range of guard dogs, policemen and other defencive devices. The spy climbed into a third floor window into a gargantuan bedroom. He put a silencer on the barrel of his revolver and shot into the mass of sheets and pillows. A bloodstain spread calmly through the crisp white linen sheets of the indecently large bed.


Colonel Alcmund Leodwalding sat and went through his defences in his mind. He had 130 tanks attacking the main Integrist army in the North, another 130 waiting in the South where he was sure they would attack and he had numerous roadblocks, snipers, anti-aircraft guns, etc in the centre around the temporary barracks. He couldn't think of any way the Integrists could pierce his armour.

In the Dux's office...

The Dux sat a his desk discussing the Deiran war with one of his military experts, Ian MacDonald. MacDonald explained the situation to the Dux, "The situation is at best catastrophic. This could be the first military disaster of the People's Liberation Army (PLA). More than a third of the initial 800 troops sent have been wounded."

The Dux swallowed the bitter taste of shame. "Have you heard of the martial race theory?", he asked MacDonald.

"Yes, the theory that select civilisations, groups, or races have a certain warrior society with strong discipline, order, and bravery. In battle the Deirans have proved to be incredibly well equipped, aggressive, tactical, and hard as nails", responded MacDonald.

The Dux grinned. "Through our catastrophic losses we have discovered that these people are not to be defeated solely to aid Yeldashay, but that they would be a perfect addition to the UIT."

MacDonald was amazed that the Dux was grinning a few minutes after being informed of the PLA's first military disaster. He spoke, "The numbers can very much work in our favour. The Ground Force of the PLA consists of 200,000 men and women on active duty. 70,000 are stationed in Vertadoria, with another 50,000 to be sent soon. Less than a thousand are currently in Deira. The Deirans are fighting on two fronts with about 3,500 troops. If we were to send 35,000 troops they would be outnumbered 10 to 1 and due to our advantage losses would be reduced."

The Dux gave out the order for OPERATION: OVERPOWER. 35,000 soldiers were to be immediately mobilised to attack Deira. The airforce was ordered to prepare for an offensive role in the invasion.

Tens of thousands of soldiers departed from their loved ones today; as the UIT is set to perform a mass invasion of Deira. The Dux in his public statement said, "The people of Deira have proven their strength in battle. They are a formidable opponent; but we shall be victorious."

The invasion of Deira has shown the Dux's increasingly jingoist foreign policy. Many an eyebrow has been raised at how frequently the Dux declares war, and commits Integritist lives to a military campaign. However, so long as the soldiers are cared for, well protected and hailed as heroes; the Dux's jingoism will go on. We here at the Aiberdeen Herald wish the troops all the best!




In the forest North of Zeray

The infantry had retreated into the forest. The Deiran tanks were incredibly tough. Many survived multiple missile shots from the 70 or so Integritists that ambushed the Deiran tanks. During the course of the fighting, over 200 anti-tank missiles were fired; and the artillery bombarded the Deiran tanks once the troops ran out of anti-tank ammunition and retreated into the forest. The PLA had taken over 300 casualties by the time the air support had arrived. Scores of fighters laden with missiles fired their payloads vengefully into the Deiran tanks that had killed so many of their brethren.

Colonel Mitchell was ordered to fortify in a defensive postition where he would have full air support. He was told informed that reinforcements were arriving, and that the Deiran War had escalated.

The Empire of Yeldashay
Emperor Guran-ru of Yeldashay was shell-shocked. His beloved father had been shot in cold blood by a Deiran spy and the military situation was not good. General Kiridan had explained the Yeldan predicament to him.
"So, General, we have no Naval or Airborne capacity. Our land forces depend on these so we are without a practical invasion force." They both knew what that meant. Surrender was the only option.
"Send this to the Deiran leader:"

To President Leodwalding of Deira
 
NOTICING that the revolutionary cadre styling itself the 'Deiran Independence Party' has gained control of swathes of sovereign
Yeldan territory.

ALSO NOTICING that the aforesaid revolutionary group has declared this territory the 'Republic of Deira' and has proceeded to wage war on the Empire of Yeldashay.

REALISING that the Deiran Independence Party has gained the Deiran people's favour


HEREBY recognises the Republic of Deira as a sovereign state and calls for peace between Yeldashay and Deira in perpetuity.

Signed Emperor Guran-ru of Yeldashay

President Coenred Leodwalding glanced through the reports filed by his numerous spies. The one which attracted most of his attention described the Dux of the Union of Integrist Territories ordering 35,000 troops to attack Deira. This was not good. it simply wasn't fair play.
"Damned underhand Integrist trick!" he exclaimed. He immediately ordered the other three legions to join his cousin in Zeray. It was all he could do in the circumstances. From the massive invasion force he could reasonavly deduce that the UIT wanted to keep Deira for themselves after the war: after the inevitable defeat of the Republic of Deira by the fascist and imperial forces. A secretary delivered a document to his desk. It was from the new Emperor of Yeldashay.
The President signed it with a flourish. Every cloud had a silver lining.


Colonel Alcmund Leodwalding ordered the tanks he had sent against the Integrists to fall back. They had done their work despite heavy casualties. the defensive line was still holding well. It would soon fail, though. Rumour had it that the UIT were sending 35,000 troops to Deira. They would outnumber the sparsely populated Deirans 10 to 1.
The Integrists would take ages to slaughter.
