Dominus Regum
The Lord of Kings
Cascadian 3rd Fleet, Carribbean Sea
In response to the Grenshu invasion of southern America and Central America, the CNDF has been mobilized in bulk to begin a series of devastating aerial and naval bombardment campaigns on all Grenshu forces and encampments in the area. The 1st, 2nd, 5th and 6th Fleets covering the entire western coastline of Central America and the 3rd, 4th, 7th and 8th Fleets covering the eastern coastline of Central America. Despite this mass contribution of forces, the rest of Cascadia's coastlines remain defended due to the intense size of the CNDF, within two weeks of constant, neverending bombardment due to how well supplied the CNDF is, an incredibly large percentage of Grenshu troops have been killed from these campaigns alone, along with 5 frigates, 7 corvettes and 2 extra destroyers. Any and all attempts of another offensive into Cascadia have been crushed by a reinforced line on the Mexican border, due to the deaths of two million Cascadian troops in southern America, a mass recruitment surge has been reported. An additional 3.2 million signing up for the National Guard in honor of those that have died, meanwhile another industrial surge has been ordered by the federal government. To replace lost equipment, 14,500 new M1A3 Abrams have been ordered alongside 8,700 new F-38's. Cruise missiles from all eight fleets along both coasts of the bottleneck area have destroyed 80% of all Grenshu bases and installations set up in Central America and 77% in South America, this is for Cascadian territory only however. Bombing runs from B2 Spirits, too high for Grenshu AA and other weaponry to target accurately have destroyed an additional 5% of both in less than a week, leaving the Grenshu invasion force vastly disorganized and undersupplied as attempts to resupply them have been foiled by an overwhelming air superiority from the CNDF's carriers, multiple Grenshu attempts to sink the aircraft carriers in both oceans have failed disasteriously, resulting in even more aircraft loss for the Grenshu. Only 15% of remaining Grenshu installations in total still exist, with these being the victim of daily air raids as well, forcing the main Grenshu forces into hiding for the most part.
Cascadia has publicly celebrated these campaigns, titled Operation: Freedom's Strength and the population has rejoiced as the Grenshu are subject to a series of revenge attacks over the occupation of Cascadian land and murders of two million Cascadians, in Grenshu occupied territory they have been harrassed consistantly by rebel cells, a majority of the population has taken arms against them. The Southern Milita has reformed and surfaced as an organized resistance movement, being well supplied and with around two thirds of their personnel being well trained, these troops training the other third as they continue ambushing Grenshu convoys and conducting guriella warfare style attacks on them. The entirety of the population in occupied territory is in great support of the Southern Milita, which has taken to setting up various installations, outposts and bases within the thick and incredibly large Amazon rainforest, shooting down any Grenshu aircraft in the area as a warning and a sign that it is incredibly dangerous. Cascadian airdrops have kept them constantly supplied as the CNDF and CADF ensure air superiority over large quantities of occupied territory.
Close monitoring and surveillance of occupied territories has begun, the NIA seeing attempts of Grenshu forces using cities as cover so that the CNDF won't bombard their forces. Only to inform the CNDF of this and for the Grenshu's retreating forces to be pounded into the ground before they even reach the cities to use them as hostages essentially, so far they have ceased attempting this tactic as it has only led to more Grenshu deaths and equipment destruction. The Pentagon, after seeing how devestating Grenshu forces can be when fully prepared and supplied have given standing orders to all CDF forces to immediately engage any supply vehicle or aircraft approaching occupied territory and so far the Grenshu have gone 2 weeks without resupply. Artillery near the border has destroyed all Grenshu fortifications along the Mexican border, ensuring that no further advance can be made into Cascadian territory. As of now, around two and a half weeks after the inital Grenshu occupation and invasion of south and central America, not only has the CDF successfully stalled any form of advance or resupply from the Grenshu for the time being, but have vastly weakened their forces and secured air dominance once again over the majority of occupied territory.
Northern Amazon Rainforest, Cascadia
"Matthews, you got anything?" Sgt. Davis asked quietly as the young militiaman went up in-front of the main group, holding his hand up in a clenched fist to signal them to stop. Which they did, the other 18 militiamen and their armed jeep stopping as they kept their weapons raised and knelt down, flashlights on as they searched the surrounding area. It was a usual boiling night in the jungle, the ground was damp and muddy as their boots squelched against it, the jeep had no problem in traversing the terrain however as the gunner kept his eyes glued to his surroundings, a wet, thick sound emitting as multiple pairs of boots pressed down on the soft surface below. They'd all been supplied with less advanced Cascadian armor and equipment but well known for it's incredible effectiveness, weapons and armor included as the soldiers kept their eyes open. "Matthews?" Davis asked again, a little louder but still in a whisper kind of shout as the young millitaman turned around to the rest of his team and nodded slowly, giving the all-clear with his hand as the group continued moving. />"Python Actual, this is Central. Do you have the enemy encampment in sight, over?"</ Sgt. Davis' radio went off as he held it, the group stopping again as he gave his answer, still looking around for any signs of Grinch, the given nickname for the Grenshu. Due to their names' similiarity with Grinch and how ugly they looked underneath their armor. />"Affirmative, Central. We appear to be on the outer perimiter of the facility, requesting permission to advance and engage. Over."</ Davis replied, the squad turning off their flashlights as they awaited the signal, the moonlight had kept their lights relatively unnoticeable but given how close they were to the base now. It was deemed dangerous to keep them on, all the militiamen switching to nightvision as they went onto their bellies and hid in bushes, weeks of fighting Grinch had made them rather adept at jungle based warfare. />"Only engage when Python 1-1 gives the all-clear, over."</ Central replied, Davis nodding to his men as they readied their weapons, their Sargeant giving one last response. />"Copy, Central. We'll check in with 1-1, Davis, out."</
/>"1-1, this is Actual. What's the status of the enemy patrol, over?"</ Davis asked quietly as a Grinch drone flew overhead on it's usual routine and landed at the relatively small but important enemy facility, it was the headquarters of the Grenshu's anti-insurgency operations for Cascadian occupied territory. The biggest threat to the Militia's own operations and so it had to be taken out. />"Actual, this is 1-1. Their switching the guards, it's go-time." The other unit on the opposite side of the facility reported in as Davis gave one affirmative nod to his men, the militiamen preparing their big surprise as Python 1-1 began attacking the main entrance of the facility, gunfire lighting up on the other side, filling the previously quiet jungle with sound as birds flew away in every direction as two militiamen prepared the M990 Javelin, one of the more high-tech pieces of equipment they'd been supplied. Firing the rocket launcher as the missile went high up into the air before crashing down onto the base, destroying the drone that was parked on it's roof, eliminating the base's air support as it's alarms went off. The other militiamen firing their assault rifles and machine guns onto the guards below. "Gentlemen, I don't care if these god-fearing, delusional Grinchies throw their shit at you, you will not show them anything else other than your warface. Have you got me!?" Davis yelled over the fire in his usual gruff, commanding tone. The squad firmly replying with an enthusiastic, "Sir, yes sir!" More militiamen approached from the south as Python 1-2 moved in for the kill, until the entire base had been surrounded. Davis leading the charge with his own team as they ran down the small, muddy, bush covered hill that overlooked the Grenshu base. Some soldiers nearly slipping as they ran down it, sprinting to cover as they continued firing.
The firefight had lasted for over an hour, even later into the night as Python reported 9 casualities, 11 wounded with one jeep needing immediate repair. However the Grenshu's anti-insurgency headquarters had been knocked out along with all their records on the rebellion, the Militia and it's supporters. Two high-ranking Grenshu officers has also been taken prisoner in the attack, being taken for questioning by the Militia as they took all they could from the base, information, technology, weapons and everything that wasn't strapped down before destroying the base and disappearing back into the jungle. Upon arrival at the Bird's Nest, the Militia's main headquarters in the Amazon. Extending deep underground, it being a former Vestanian military bunker that had been found and repurposed after the war, Python was given great applause and a feast was held due to the success of the mission. The CDF was informed and a congratulations was given, alongside additional rations being airdropped in for them, Sgt. Davis was given a medal for Outstanding Leadership and Python unit itself was awarded the Significant Group Achievement trophy which is given for great tasks accomplished by an entire unit in the middle of a battle or operation.

United States of Varmandr Vestan Military Base, Peru
General Jameson stood by the edge of a table, looking at a map. Word had recently reached that the Cascadians had severely weakened South American Grenshu forces, now being called Grinches by troops.
He nodded to his second-in-command and he walked off, getting ready the transmission...
USVV Capitol Building, Rio de Janeiro
President Chris Baldr prepared and sent two transmissions, one to the Cascadians, and one to the entire VV nation.
the first was the Cascadians
"I know we haven't gotten along, but the Alien threat is too great for any pride to be held… I am proposing a joint-attack on Grenshu forces. You from the North, and us from the South. We shall start a battle on the Southern front, and you on the North. If all is successful, South America should be free of Grenshu. We will eagerly await your reply…"
@RIPSaidCone
The second was to the VV nation...
It was an hour-long transmission, calling for a Draft and raising patriotism, and that the Grenshu forces will not win now, will not win EVER. days after the transmission, the Vestanian military was raised to 3.9 million troops, although 1/3 of them only had a weeks's training. Also, as much as 50 million citizens were in armed militias, ready to fight back in case of invasion.
The more dramatic sections of the speech.
"This may be history's greatest moment, where either Humanity will die, or Humanity may survive…
But we will not just survive as the world crumbles...
We will rise like a fire, with ferocity and tenacity unlike any had ever seen. Like when our forefathers first came out of the jungle after the Day of Odin's Cleansing. We will show our might and do whatever we must, for this is not for us… This is for our children, our grandchildren. This is for our Ancestors in Valhalla, who we will ride with into Ragnarok's chaos someday, and with who we will cheer Frigg's Cheer one day, for all the gods are watching us, from Hlodyn , mother of the Earth, to Odin, the All-Father.
So find any way to help Mother Hlodyn, whether it be in factory, producing Droids, weapons, or supplies, or in the battlefield, defending our homeland… Already five million Vestanians had died, and many more children of the earth elsewhere… Do not let them die in vain...
So do this, brothers and sisters, for Odin, For Our ancestors, FOR VICTORY!"
Other Stuff
Industrial Plans:
Droid Manufacturing: Droids are now manufacture-ready, with 500 factories being devoted to work on them, each able to put out 100 common ones a month. Five Super-Droids are already produced.
Tech Research:
Project Cauliflower: (55%) (75% predicted on page 82)
Now the scientists started working on automated Turrets, AA guns, Mortars, and stationary defense weapons. Turrets and AA guns were easier to figure out how to put a computer in it, but the Mortars and Stationary Defense Weapons were hard to do. Project is ongoing.
Project Future: (0%) (Ended)
As the VFO fell, so did this project, although some interest was taken by the USVV
