If the international community sees a united Reizen front against the RIM, further foreign involvement and escalation of the war can be avoided, and countless lives be saved."
"It is apparent to the WPR that returning to the Grovne Agreement will see further foreign involvement and an escalation of the war! Furthermore, foreigners will always intervene in this war, as they have done so from the start of this accursed war when they supplied aid for us, the imperialists, the capitalists and the RIM.
You need to understand that I currently do not have the political influence to push through official support for the Sedunnic plan. The most I can do is provide unofficial support until I can convince enough politburo council members to sustain a simple majority to silence the ideological purists within the WPR. At the moment these ideologues have stated that they will oppose any attempts to return to the Grovne accords and have convinced enough Politburo members to be successful in their opposition. Ergo, I need an opportunity to peel the less resolved ideologues from their hardline counterparts.
So what I am asking for is for your country to be pragmatic here. Start your plan with the Imperialists, so that the city of Seranuma can breathe. To give our exhausted partisans a chance to rest and make their voices heard within the party. Our luck against the RIM can only be attributed to the generosity of our Socialist brethren, your special forces and the tenacity of our partisans. So the politburo has little choice but to listen to the Partisans who are urging the WPR to publicly support this.
Now I am also fully aware that the Grovne accords will allow the WPR fair representation through the referendum, and that our allies will ensure that we are fairly represented in a post war Reizen. However, some of the Politburo members do not know that and I can use their uncertainty to our mutual benefit. However, that can only happen when they feel as if we are losing an opportunity for a strong hand at the negotiating table.
On the flip side, if you convince Bruuma to support your plan, the ideologues will have no choice but to heed their words, but that is simply an alternative to what I am asking for."
Commander Konicki grinned as his army swelled with each village that was "liberated" by his soldiers. Thousands of villagers were conscripted into Martyr groups to serve as the RIM vanguard in their push to liberate Zett island from the weaklings and the Foreigners. The Martyr groups were particularly effective when dealing with the weaklings allowing them to save precious sarin gas and mustard gas for the attacks against the foreigners.
Commander Konicki was planning their next move when a report from Captains Zom and Bi came in. The two captains had just reported that the RDC fled from the Martyr vanguard allowing them to push through to the southern outskirts of Zett city and putting them in range of chemical mortar fire. The foreigners were competent dealing 4,000 casualties, but thanks to the martyr groups the losses didn't matter and it was only a matter of time before they were overwhelmed by sheer numbers or despaired at the fact of killing noncombatants. "Soon..." muttered Konicki "Its only a matter of time before we can crush them and take back what is ours!"

He switched back to a more serious tone: "Anyway, we will honour our understanding and respect your decision... for the time being, since Seranuma is still not threatened. We will continue to provide material and aerial support to the WPR and direct it against RIM, hoping it will be able to inflict an heavier toll on them. Should you reconsider our offering, you know where to find me. Always a pleasure talking with you Minister, may the Loas grant you a bright day!".
"Thank for understanding and respecting our decision... of course when we have a proposition regarding the fate of the WPR, we will be in touch Minister Hunt. It is also a pleasure talking with you Minister Hunt and I wish you a pleasant day as well"
Minister Kuribayashi then hung up the phone and breathed an audible sigh of relief after what she hoped was preventing a repeat of the Serevan war within the Empire. She then drafted a report of the conversation with the Bruuman minister to deliver to the President when another file was delivered to her. This time it came from an encrypted email written by the Frost Ambassador to Sedunn. In it was a confidential offer labeled Musical Cartography and for her eyes only. She lifted the phone again and contacted the president.
I can't believe I survived that hell. The boys I served with deserted the garrison and for some odd reason I don't blame them for doing so. They couldn't shoot their friends and family held hostage by the monsters in front of them and I didn't know if I had the resolve to do kill them either. I don't know if our Bzern friends have that kind of resolve too, but they saved my life. Picked me up from among the debris and corpses. When I came to in the RDC field hospital, the medic who treated me let me know that the RIM were all dead when they saved my life. He also said that the artillery strikes that killed everyone was caused by a battle our foreign friends fought against the tyrants. That Fortress Epsilon's mighty guns have fired at the island to kill us all. I don't know if its true or not, but at the very least I do know that I got to find the Bzern unit who saved my life and thank them.
The morgue of Forward operating base November was known to the garrison as the "Freezer" because it was a former slaughterhouse freezer. The hooks were all removed and replaced with tables where the dead were laid to rest temporarily until they could be laid to rest properly. Looking over at "Hip-Hop" the captain said, "Don't make me regret undoing your restraints, Hip-Hop." as she removed the handcuffs and gestured for the Sedunner to grab a jacket and follow her into the morgue.
