Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov , Eugene V. Debs , Darth Nihilus , With the matter of Yugoslavian handled, all that remains is the Czechoslovakian question. Their territory is the rightful land of Austria-Hungary, and should return to us. I am willing to negotiate the ceding of other lands in exchange for this territory in order to avoid bloodshed. I hope you will consider the offer Sincerely, Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary

Eugene V. Debs only Hello again good friend,
With the current tension over Czechoslovakia, I'm afraid that we may be drawn into war with one another. Before it reaches that point, I had a question about the nature of your alliance: are you required to join a war over another ally's guarantee? If not then we may be able to avoid warring against each other, as I have no fight against someone I have had such good relations with.
There is a good chance that Italy requests to join the war on my side. I have no wish to work with fascists. They are a more volatile example of a single strong arm leader than even the empires of old, and they have no awareness over how fragile the balance of their country is. If you were to join the war I would be forced to have them on my side however. I ask for your understanding of this matter, and what to make it clear that my ideology has not changed; I still believe communism is the best way to bring peace to my empire after I pass.
With these matters out of the way, I hope to hear from you soon. And if we do face each other on the Battlefield, I hope we can do it as gentlemen, and host no hate towards the other.
Sincerely,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary

Sincerely,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary Only for Warlord247 Of course. I said "consider" because I am not currently sure of the other allies' plans, but I have no further issues. I can pledge to keep all my armies in Poland at least 30 km behind their defensive lines. |

While we're doing things that are beneficial for both of our countries, I would like to propose the idea of allowing citizens to travel between our two nations without passports. With how close our countries are, and considering the fact many families have members in both, I think it would be great for our peoples.
Anyhow, back to the matter of Czechoslovakia. If I were able to get approval from the USSR, do you think that could prevent France from involving themselves? And if I did get approval from both you and the USSR and France invade my country, how would you respond.
Sincerely,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary |

Bidasoa is crossed succesfully and Irun is the first city to be liberated by the French army. 18,063 Spanish dead. I'll divide that to 12,063 soldiers and 8 tanks. 7526 French dead. 30,000 Spanish reinforcements (recruits) reach San Sebastián, but the French army continues the attack. 7 to win again. 3o1CsQC8We haven't done any operation codenames in this RP so far, and since we're in Spain and this operation will probably look a bit like a churro on the map, this operation is codenamed Churro. Operation Churro100,000 soldiers, 800 guns and 500 tanks cross the Tajo river after an intense bombing of Cáceres by 400 bombers and attack the city through Brozas. Countering this attack with 70,000 infantry, 250 guns and 100 tanks would leave my bonus to -2, so I need 6 to win.
Now the focal point of attack. From Evola 550,000 soldiers, 1500 tanks and 3000 guns thrust towards Don Benito via Badajoz, Montijo and Mérida. I obviously need only a 5 to win. Facing me are 210,000 infantry, 250 guns and 100 tanks.
The French army faces terrible defeat in all three places, but they are ordered to regroup and attack again. 4415_yyRHere I need a 7 to win because I have been pushed beyond the river. All these attacks are renewed, the latter 2 will be all out. 8, 6 and 5 needed to win respectively. N4AOLq4|····· |

Only for Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov So, you have sent a message to Italy, which I haven't been surprised, as I have been talking with Austria-Hungary too. I see a few possiblities about your reason. The obvious one is that you may doubt about me. But why? Remember, you had a talk with them in the past too. Then I asked you about thoe talks, trusting that you would tell me the truth, you explained the talks and the problem was solved. If I hadn't trusted that it was certain that you would tell the truth, I would have basically declared war. But I didn't. Because I trust you. But apparently, you may not trust us. Why didn't you choose the option of basically talking first? Why did you immediately go to the fascists? Are you really not against us, the socialists, as you claimed in our talks about Spain? Or are you planning a conspiracy against us? I don't believe these are true. You have gained my trust so far. But if you don't trust me, how can I continue to trust you? Shouldn't trust be in each of the sides in an alliance?
When you had your talks with Austria-Hungary, I chose talking with you to get its explanation. Because I trust you and your explanations. But now, why did you write to Italy? And what did you write? Do you think that my talks with Austria-Hungary are suspicious? What about your previous one with them, then? I trusted your explanations, but you didn't even ask me about this current events, but now, you did write to Italy, which is the suspicious action here. If my predictions are right, then I'll want you to reconsider. I may have talked about something else, I may have talked about that still, but perhaps just in order to gain information for our alliance? How can you know? Therefore, you may ask why I haven't already informed you about my talks with Austria-Hungary. Then, I'd say don't forget, the one who started these talks were them, not me. Therefore, they may have requested privacy or something like that about the talks, so I assume this is understandable. However, the one who started the talks with Italy is you, so you declare the rules, not them. Then why don't you tell your allies about that? Because you don't trust them? Because you are the one who will betray them? Or maybe because you are against us, the socialists?
Sorry if this telegram sounded mean, but I am sure that you will understand the urgency abd importance of the situation. The future of our alliance is in your hands. I hope that we will solve this "dramatic" problem as soon as possible and continue more powerful than before. Also, do not forget, you need me, the USSR, if you want to win. And I am not against you. This is your choice to stand united with us or fall, divided from us. I prefer the first one, standing united. What about you?
But if you are against us, the socialists, the left, the working class, or the comradeship of united humanity, the eternal and stateless peace of the humanity, whom we, the USSR, will be leading gloriously and victoriously to the victory of us all in a truly stateless world of comradeship, then you will lose me, and hence the victory. But if you join us, the socialists, the Comintern, then you will win with us, the whole of the humanity. It is now time to be clear and honest. So, please choose your side. Only for Eugene V. DebsThe French government is outraged by this message sent by the Soviet Union. France naturally needs to contact Italy, an old enemy, when a rising militarist power is attacking nearby territories, some of which Italy has controlled herself. It is vital for us to ensure they do not join the war and to suspect that our intentions are anything else is a blatant show of paranoia and distrust. Moreover the Soviet Union acts like we were its client state required to report all our diplomatic contacts. Last time when we were discussing with Austria-Hungary, you were very anxious to hear the reason. Yet it didn't come to your mind to take the initiative to inform us and Poland.
I hope you remember that France is the one that has won wars and spilled the blood and I hope that the Soviet Union is able to step up and bring help to Turkey and stand up against Austria-Hungary. |

The French army has once again been pushed from Irún to the other side of the border with very heavy losses, but elsewhere it has triumphed. 2 years ago on the streets and in the bull fighting arena of Badajoz, thousands of loyalists and innocent civilians were slaughtered by the Fascist scums. The French and the Spanish republic will ensure that no one will be slaughtered in Badajoz anymore. Further east the French army has broken through Extremadura and reached the Republican frontlines where they are greeted with tears of joy. In Morocco too, the Fascist army has been utterly annihilated, most of the army dead, wounded or captured.
40,000 soldiers from Morocco are moved to Tan-Tan. 200,000 soldiers, 2000 guns and 1000 tanks move to Porto from which they will be shipped to Biarritz.
Casualties will be edited here...
Cacéres front: Nationalist army decimated, 12576 infantry, 101 guns and 63 tanks lost for the French.
Badajoz front: 294 guns, 147 tanks and 53881 infantry lost for the French forces. The Spanish army is completely decimated.
Morocco western front: All 35 Spanish guns and 12856 infantry lost, 7102 casualties for the French.
Morocco eastern front: All Spanish forces destroyed, 4289 French casualties.

Sincerely,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary Only for Warlord247, I will discuss the matter of free trade once an agreement is reached.
I don't know what the USSR and France's demands are, but they may perhaps be able to sway one another. If France invades you, I do not have nearly enough soldiers to contend with them, nor do I wish to antagonize France, as they have helped us in the past. But if you have an agreement with the USSR then I can guarantee that my own units will not leave our own territory. I can't say the same for any French units in the Baltics though since they are not under my control. |

Eugene V. Debs only Dear Soviet friend,
I grant you permission to read the communications that have been conducted between me and Poland in the last 2 pages. In them they agree to halt any attacks on my military during the Czechoslovakian issue as long as you do so as well, whether the French attack or not.
We have also reached an agreement on the fate of Czechoslovakia which us beneficial to both parties. As such, I ask you to withhold your forces if the French do invade. If both you and Poland stay out of the war, then it should end in a stalemate. If I do have to invade France to end the war, I give my word that they will maintain their status as a country after the war's end (communism has been simmering in the background of France's political scene for decades now, perhaps I could even install a communist government after my occupation.)
With deepest respect,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary

All Austro-Hungarian forces, whether infantry, artillery, or armour, are to regroup at Berlin. This will take 5 posts

Only for Warlord247 To the esteemed Kent, King of Austria, greetings, etc.
We have given your offer due consideration, and must respectfully decline. While we concede that the offer, from the Austrian point of view, is generous, the king must understand that for us, the Italian land and Italian people are sacred. We cannot countenance conceding either to a foreign power, even one so well-disposed and blessed with so wise a ruler. Only for Theron To the Fascismo of Italy,
The concerns of the Italian people are valid, however I ask you to reconsider. My "expansion" thus far has been the reclamation of the Empire's rightful territory, and we have no motivation to expand beyond that.
While we have occupied the full extent of countries we liberated our land from, this has been more to stop uprisings and less for conquest, hence why we were willing to split Romania, and cede large sections of Yugoslavia to you.
The matter can wait for now, as the empire currently has other concerns, but in due time I urge you to think it over.
Sincerely,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary Only for Warlord247 I fear that the esteemed Sir Kent, for all his wisdom, has still not given this matter proper consideration. He does not seem to realize that these lands, though briefly held by Austria, are Italian ancestral lands. Perhaps he considers that the Italians are less attached to their land than the Austrians? If so, then we assure him that he is in grievous error. Or perhaps he supposes that only Austria is entitled to pursue historical claims? Need we remind Sir Kent that not only Italy, but almost the whole of the claimed Austrian territory, was once ruled from Rome? It is difficult for us to countenance a partnership with a country that maintains a claim on Italian territory.
În more serious matters, I had understood, based on what France told me and the division of Romania, that Austria is now in cahoots with Poland and the Soviets, so I was definitely going to take the French side, but based on CDG's public statements, it seems like that's not actually the case? What are your diplomatic relations with your eastern neighbors? |
