Zett Island

Bzeneleg Forces Status

At present, 1,600 troops are deployed in multiple points throughout Zett Island. After 6 days of expansion, the Bzerne Forces claim occupation of the entire island. 

The Bzerneleg Southeastern Command ordered 12 ships to be positioned in the Zett Corridor.

The Zett Liberation Task Force had failed in its task to "liberate" Zett Island from the Cowardly RDC and their Merciless allies. RIM Commander Konicki changed gears as he realized that the Martyr tactics were useless against the enemy. He ordered the remaining regulars to begin a guerilla campaign. If they couldn't break them in a conventional fight, then they will stretch the enemy to the limits in a grueling campaign.

The Task Force rigged i.e.d.s and other booby traps throughout the jungle. The Task force also changed the roles of the Martyrs into laborers who dug tunnels for the Task force so that they could move around the island with ease. The Task Force also engaged in hit and run attacks against the Foreigners and RDC at dusk or night before slinking away before the light of dawn penetrated the island jungle.

To Whom It May Concern Of The Frost Empire I wish to discuss the Reizen Civil War with someone promptly. I do not wish to involve my people any more than necessary, as we are recovering from our own bloodbath, but I remain wary of RIM having broken a significant amount of Antarchi nationals from our maximum security prison. Signed, Finix Fi'Shi

Since the RIM's liberation of the maximum securith prison in FiHami, several others had escaped from Prison and set themselves over on the waters on makeshift rafts, hoping to be caught by RIM forces, motivated by the promises made by their liberators. Though the imperial family was likely extinct, they maintained strong hopes for reclaiming their land once again from the Finixi. They would give the RIM 100%, hoping for their aid in reconquering FiHami in return.

THE PRESIDENTIAL MANSION
BELMONT, BZERNELEG

"Mr. President, your intelligence briefing, sir," addressed the Director of National Intelligence, Mr. Ralph Corcoran, as he approaches the President's desk.

They shake hands and the President welcomes Mr. Corcoran to take a seat.

"Why isn't my usual aide-de-camp handing me this, Mr. Corcoran," asked the President while scanning through the brief, "is there something particularly important you want to inform me about?"

"Compiling results from the most recent aerial reconnaissance missions, we have reason to believe that the RIM is prepping to take action against our forces on Zett Island. As you can see, there was troop buildup in areas near the Southern coast of Reizen, where the RIM is in control. There is no indication, however, of heavy weapons anywhere."

"I see," the President replied simply.

The vague response very much surprises Mr. Corcoran, who expected an order for action of some kind.

"We will not respond to their buildup, Mr. Corcoran. I do not want us to get stuck in playing their game."

"But, if they want to attack us in some ways, and to mitigate offensives from other factions, here's what I propose: we make sure that normal life runs again on Zett Island, it will no longer be a war zone, and we will voluntarily protect it from any danger. We will introduce civilians on the island and build temporary housing and services for basic needs. That way, any attacker will have to think twice before doing whatever the hell they're doing," proclaimed the President.

"I understand, sir," replied hesitantly Mr. Corcoran.

"Good," said the President, "thank you for today, Ralph."

"Pleasure, sir," said Mr. Corcoran as he prepares to leave.

“Good morning, Minister Kuribayashi, Minister Hunt speaking. The latest development in Reizen are worrying us deeply: despite the ceasefire among other forces, RIM keep gaining allies and ground. As the guarantor of the WPR, we fear that sooner or later we’ll have to directly intervene on the ground in favour of our comrades, an eventuality which we would like to avoid if possible. I have a proposal to male, but first I’d like to hear from you how the Empire intend to handle the situation at this point”.

The following letter was sent to the Reizen Democratic Coalition.

THE PRESIDENTIAL MANSION • LE MAISON DU PRÉSIDENT   Dear Sir/Ma'am,   As you may have noticed, the Government of Bzerneleg has taken a decisive step toward restoring peace and order in parts of Reizen by formally putting Zett Island under our control. As a result of such action, we have also advanced the cause of liberty and democracy in ways I could not have previously imagined. It was a tough and close call, needless to say, but I would like to express my sincere apologies for not consulting the Reizen Democratic Coalition before taking action. The Government of Bzerneleg seeks, as always, to strengthen our mutually beneficial relations. From this moment on, we wish that the RDC would be more involved in the shaping of our policy in Reizen. For if the RDC loses, Bzerneleg also loses, and vice versa. I am interested in hearing your opinions on our latest action and comments on how we should move forward together, in Zett Island and as two formally recognized governments. Sincerely, The Right Honourable, Donald J. Blythe President of Bzerneleg

Minister Kuribayashi was reading the Finixi letter when she picked up the phone.
“Minister Hunt, the situation is complicated to say the least. The general offensive to defeat the RIM is making progress and they are losing ground. However, in their growing desperation, the rim seem to be committing themselves to foreign raids for troops and supplies. Meanwhile the Bzerne government has abused the fragile cease fire to violate our sovereignty. Furthermore, Minister Kirihito of the WPR has agreed to talk with us this time instead of allowing the WPR to leave the cease fire despite the RDC’s tacit approval of the Bzerne action clearly jeopardizes the ceasefire. That is unless you wish to have a word with him before he discusses the possible consequences of the Bzern and RDC with my Sedunnic counterparts and I.”

Zero City, Zett Island

President Blythe

The Reizen Democratic Coalition understands and forgives your government for not consulting us before declaring the Island your Protectorate. As you probably may have noticed, the Reizen Democratic Coalition has been struggling to pick up the pieces since the disappearance of former President Arata Minshu. President Minshu hoped to strengthen our mutually beneficial ties before his disappearance, and I hope to continue in his footsteps.

We also hope to be more involved in the shaping of public policy in Reizen so that we have a democratic government. However, I am afraid that your declaration may have unintended consequences that neither you nor I can predict. While the WPR has yet to leave the Grovne Cease Fire, we do know that their history of tantrums may cause them to once again falsely blame us and leave the coalition. Furthermore, while the RDC is lucky enough not to have an Imperial Garrison to backstab us, the Empire, may ease their blockade allowing the RIM to harm us. But this is just speculation as they have many options to choose, while the fanatical RIM remain dug in on the island.

Despite these concerns, We are ever grateful for your assistance in bringing liberty and democracy back to Reizen

Regards,

Raku Denji

Chief Finix Fi'shi

The Frost Empire is also concerned about the Insurgency's increasingly erratic actions, and will be happy to accommodate you in a meeting with our officials. The Empire has noted the erratic behavior of the insurgents, and express our heartfelt condolences to the families who have endured so much only to be robbed of closure.

THE PRESIDENTIAL MANSION • LE MAISON DU PRÉSIDENT     Mr. Raku Denji Interim President Reizen Democratic Coalition   Dear Mr. Denji,  I have received and well read your empathetic letter. Since the declaration of a protectorate, Reizen has indeed become a more hostile and unstable zone. However, I sincerely believe that such declaration marked a change for the better. Restoration of governance over Zett Island is necessary for its security and growth. It also serves as a reminder to those in mainland Reizen, not soldiers, but ordinary people, that democracy and proper governance will bring peace to the country again. However, before we can do that, the rule of law needs to be established. That means to create a constitution, a basic law, for the Provisional Government of Zett Island to be founded and operate on. Consequently, I am also informing you that I have chosen Mr. John Bromley Smith, to lead the Bzerne delegation in Zett Island. He works at the Bzerneleg Department of State and currently holds the position of Assistant Secretary of State for Southeastern Affairs. The delegation will include other high-ranking officials specialized in international development, relations and security, fully ready to represent the government of Bzerneleg in negotiations and the management of affairs on Zett Island. Over the next few days, there will be some tough decisions to make that will significantly change the dynamic of our partnership. I personally want you to know that I pray for you, your people and a prosperous, liberated Reizen as we strive to endure through this difficult time. Sincerely, The Right Honourable, Donald J. Blythe President of Bzerneleg

"Yes,I should consult with him before these negotiations start. Meanwhile, as I was saying, I have a proposal: as RIM is becoming even more dangerous and unpredictable, I believe it would be beneficial to cohordinate the military efforts of our comrades with yours. A joint offensive could yield far better results than individual ones".
