China Republic war for land Day 3

____________________________

Though this fight just begun, it already has revealed the true hardships that man faces. The blood and the gore by order of the people of China. Yesterday the 2nd, 7th and 11th infantry brigade took the Taipei islands, tomorrow they, along with the 8th and 10th infantry divisions will land in the Haiku Islands. Here they will defeat the Hainan government and take control of the entire island with all it's, but 2, provinces. This island provides us an abundance of coal and plenty of iron. These are items been requested by the Peoples republic to fund new plans and developments in futuristic war weaponry that is designed to be both mobile and deadly, as well as give the Republic of China the best chance to blow the enemy from their feet before we even step foot onto their soil.

Whilst we have made tremendous gains on the battlefield, we also may have alliances already in the birth stages right now. The north of China has formed a government and have made it quiet clear they intent to expand... In the coming days we will have to make the choice whether to work with or work against this new government who, i can only imagine, are ready to fight for their place in China. We have agreed to peace with each other and will resume talks of an alliance in the coming days.

The Fight for Europe Day 14

________________________

The fight across middle america and eastern Canada has come to an end. The Canadians have lain down their arms and agreed to pledge allegiance to the American flag, people and way of life. Though the fighting on this side of the Atlantic is not yet over. While southern USA begin building infrastructure and armies ready to defend against any European attacks or to prepare for our attack against the Europeans. Meanwhile I am gathering resources for our engineers and mechanics to build brand new artillery firing machines. These artillery machines will bombard the enemy before we even arrive on their land. Using the worldwide stock exchange (which funnily enough, hasn't collapse - i guess while there is money to be made, the exchange of goods (even among enemies) will continue) and rationing resources and food out properly, we can prepare to begin building much artillery for our defense or future attacks against Europe. However like I said, fighting on our side of the Atlantic is not yet over. The outskirts of Canada there are 2 provinces from those that call themselves "Newfoundlands". These will be squashed when the time is right... As well as this we have Greenland which is another 12 provinces. Great for resource production and troop recruitment but the fight may weaken our army to an alarming size. Maybe southern USA will lend troops but then, I would like the Northern USA government to maintain as much power and grow as much as possible. Just to give my generals the edge in war... I fear the southern USA generals will squander and waste resources where as I can trust my own generals.

The World War campaign Day 22

___________________________

The days of growth and sitting back on the shores of Dover are long over. The English Union which had helped get me and my people this far, may soon be toppled over and destroyed. Why though? Well, I can point to two of the six leaders which have failed to properly command their armies. They have failed to allocate and ration resources. They have failed to develop new technology and to produce new fighting machinery for future war efforts. Whilst we sit back waiting for war, the Europeans have built, trained, developed, fostered relationships between each other. Not only have the European powers managed to form together into stronger alliances, they have alliances with northern African alliances which have come up to the south of England. At the time of writing this we have the Galatians 14th Army Group landing in the south of England near Portsmouth and across the sea from Devon we can see burgundy's 12th Army Group approaching. Combined these armies are nearly double the power of my own army. However with the combined efforts from Irish, Scottish and southern England... we may just be okay... that is assuming communication lines are not dropped as they have been so many times already in this war. I have sent out the order for all remaining armies around my territory that are training, defending, resting to report to Maidstone, which is on the way to Dover... Where they will form the 11th Army Group of Essex and Suffolk. We will be weaker and underdeveloped compared to our opponent. Reports show 31 separate Artillery machines, compared to our 3. Over 300 infantry brigades, compared to ours just over 200. Also... tanks... we never put money or resources into production of tanks, instead producing 2 fighter planes, 1 bomber (which will be ready in a few days) and a small navy which currently consists of only a single submarine but soon will consist of a light cruiser and battleship. We have already lost 2 light cruisers. If only we had put all production into battleships as they would of given us the range needed to begin attacks on the Burgundy 12th Army Group without receiving a heavy artillery barrage as the Light cruisers will receive.
