The 10th, (Grenoble) and the 12th army (Perpignan), both at full strength, the 1st, 2nd, 5th and 6th Artillery Brigades (1000 guns each) and 1500 tanks (500 from Perpignan and 1000 from Nancy are moved from Marseille to Beirut by sea.
Also, as a sidenote about my other armies to avoid confusion; after the war with Italy I brought 5 armies and 2000 guns to the Maginot Line like there initially were but currently there's only a single army in the north and west coasts.

No one's really doing anything, so I don't any of you will be bothered if I speed up the moving process here. The 16th, 24th, 26th and 29th army supported by 1500 guns and 600 tanks attack Zamora through Moralina and Pereruela. They will continue their advance towards Valldolid. Facing half of the Spanish Army I need a 5 to win. ADLiuS2J350,000 infantry, 600 tanks and 1500 guns attack Pamplona in the north. The advance will continue towards Tudela via Estella Olite and Calahorra. 5 to win. Zamora is captured and these attacks continue. cG3vYn|8These attacks are renewed now all out. The goal of the first attack will be Burgos and eventually reaching Bilbao after Valladolid is captured. 5 to win. O9Y2xQCpThe goals of the second attack after Tudela are Zaragoza, Belchite, Andorra Morella and eventually the Balearic sea. 5 to win. ··· |

O9Y2xQCpThe goals of the second attack after Tudela are Zaragoza, Belchite, Andorra Morella and eventually the Balearic sea. 5 to win. After the crushing success of these offensives the armed forces of nationalist Spain are brought to ruin. Only few remain around Teruel, but the forces in the north are virtually nonexistent. The 26th and 29th armies are used to reinforce the 16th, 17th, 19th, 20th, 22nd and 24th armies to full strength which move to Málaga to be shipped to Beirut. The 26th army will occupy northwestern Spain and the 29th will move to Zaragoza for further operations. All tanks and guns are moved to Paris. |

Eugene V. Debs and Darth Nihilus only Greeting future allies,
I'm assuming that discussions are still ongoing about the current situation, but with the radio silence present today I figured I should start the discussion on what to do with the fascists.
Of course, it seems as if France has thrown its lot in with Italy. They claim to be anti-fascist, but have made unjustified invasions of multiple countries, such as Albania.
In order to successfully rid the world of this Fascist scurge, we must plan a simultaneous invasion of both France and Italy. For this I have 2 possible plans:
1. I begin the construction of multiple trenchlines along the Habsburg line. The two of you move your troops to the Polish border as if you are preparing to invade. We put it off as long as possible to build up as many defenses as we can, then the two of you rush your forces through my country to the Italian border through Austro-Hungarian rail line, and begin the invasion of Italy. At the same time I fight a war of attrition with France, until they have either pushed far enough to be encircled, or the Italians have been mostly defeated and we can spare troops.
A second option is a repeat of the Third Balkans war. I invade through the low countries (which should be much quicker due to the new capabilities of the Panzer) and March on Paris, Poland holds the Maginot, and the USSR invades Italy.
Both of these plans of their drawbacks: the first focuses on Italy first, but does nothing to split French forces. The second splits French forces, but results in a rather equal battle between the USSR and Italy. Consider these facts as you make your decisions.
As for how the countries are split is simple. France, which has had the roots of communism for scores, will be handed over to their communist leaders, and allowed to function as they see best fit. Italy will remain under Austro-Hungarian occupation for half a year (6 pages I think) to ensure that Fascism has been completely stomped out, and then be handed to a proper socialist government.
After the invasion of France, we can use it as a springboard to influence Communist España to break from Republic España, and ensure their victory in the Civil War.
That is all for now my compatriots.
Sincerely,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary Only for Eugene V. Debs, Warlord247I think it is essential that we can move our armies through Germany to establish a wide front across France and Italy, where our numerical superiority will show.
If the USSR agrees, then I can begin a false-flag construction of fortresses near the German border, and you can react to this. |

DebsAhh, so the war of attrition then? If so then we need to keep the false-flag going as long as possible to fully fortify the Habsburg line. Currently it has a defense of 1.7 (maybe higher, I'd have to check) halve of my army could fortify it by .2 each turn, in addition to building the trenches and foxhole the first turn.
As stated before, with the Austro-Hungarian rail line it would take Soviet and Polish forces a total of 5 posts to reach the Italian border, so I suggest we begin said movement either after 2.3 fortification has been reached, or after the first French aggression.
Sincerely,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary |

The Polish defensive line currently has a bonus of +0.2. We use four of our armies to reinforce 500km of the line, at a rate of +0.1 per page. This will be done for 5 total pages.

This Polish act of aggression, as well as war mongering present in private teleagrams, has led the Austro-Hungarian army to engage in higher awareness. Half of the army is sent to the Polish border, where they will add +.1 fortification each turn, as well as making a trenchline with foxholes the first turn. The other half will be sent to the Habsburg line, where they will add +.2 fortification per turn, as well as a trenchline with foxholes the first turn. While diplomatic relations have degraded, it is my hope as king that war is averted between any of the European powers. (P.S. with all troops being stationed in Berlin the distance needed to be traveled by either group of armies is 2 posts) |

The Habsburg line is the renamed westwall (German-French border). I'm aware this may look to be an act of aggression, but it is simply done for prevention. The Polish have already fooled us once, and I wish to allow them no opportunity to fool us again. |

And I understand you taking precautions of your own. I simply do not want to leave my border undefended under the current betrayal. (P.S. another fix, the first round the fortification will only be increased by +.1 while the foxholes and trenches are being made. We never really discussed how long trenches take to make, so if you want to increase the page count lmk.) |

Warlord247 To Sir Kent, King of Austria, The failure of the Austrian government to reply to our latest message and its open admittance that it intends in the future to seize Italian land lead the Italian government to believe that a diplomatic solution is no longer possible. We therefore issue the following ultimatum: We demand that Austria withdraw its forces from the illegally occupied territories along the Adriatic, specifically: The whole of Montenegro, and the cities of Ljubljana, Karlovac, and Sarajevo, and all territories between them and the sea, including the entire Croatian coastline. In addition, we demand that Austria publicly withdraws its claims on Italian land. To enforce these demands, a million men supported by tanks begin grouping in Udine and Trieste, while reserve forces begin gathering near Venice. I'll post a map later.

This is an obvious attempt by the Italian government to attempt a seizure of power while Austria-Hungary is busy with other threats. The reason your telegram never received a response was due to the sheer disrespect contained in it. There were other compromises to be made besides the transfer of land. I would have been fine with open borders, simply so the people of our two countries could return to their homelands! If the Italian government had handled the situation with more (or any) diplomatic tact then this conflict could be avoided. I will NOT relinquish my territory, and I would like to see your attempt at it. |

Kliment Jefremovitš Vorošilov only Dear French parliament,
If you expect me to trust you and your allies then assist me with the Italian threat once they invade. If you hate fascists as much as you say you do, thus will not be a problem.
Sincerely,
Sir Kent, King of Austria-Hungary

If my computer shuts down right as I'm finishing updating one more time, I may break it. But anyway, here is the updated disposition of Italian forces:  It's not entirely clear with this zoom, but once the forces in the region of Udine and Trieste have gathered, there will be 1 million men supported by 3500 guns and 1100 tanks, with another 450,000 men, 220 tanks and 670 guns in reserve around Venice. My factories reorganize production. Per page they will now produce: - 50 fighters - 120 guns - 90 tanks |
