Greater Cantonian Republic - A Cantonia AAR

Interbellum (4) - Soeng'hoi Treaty
(1939.01.23 - 1939.02.05)





More technologies were developed with Japanese aid. These technologies will improve the research teams of Cantonia. Also, with the aid of those technologies, Cantonia now can develope many things, which probably will help Cantonia in future.

Greater Cantonia Formed
Canto-Japanese border Treaty signed in Soeng'hoi
The Canto-Japanese border treaty, as known as the Soeng'hoi Treaty or New Year Treaty, was signed at a hotel in Soeng'hoi, Cantonia. This treaty was about the border of Cantonia and Japan after the war against Chiang regime. According to the speaker, originally the border was set at the Yangtze River, but due to several reasons both of the army cannot reach the line in time. To avoid lengthening the war, President Gaan Gwok-dung had a meeting with several Japanese Generals, and decided to abandon the line, and who liberated the land will have it until the war ended. Since the war is over, Cantonia had several meetings with Japan, and Japan agreed to pull the line more north as a reward of Cantonian warriors. The line was finally drawn in January, and the treaty was signed earlier today. In this treaty Cantonia received many provinces north of the river( see the pictures below ). President Gaan Gwok-dung himself said that "I am satisfied by this result, as more Chinese brothers were under our democratic rule."

New border after the Soeng'hoi treaty, Japanese were feeling good about it as Cantonia purchased those lands which only have partisans.


New territorial clam of Cantonia. Coeng'dou of Tibet is considered part of Cantonia, as it was in the Sikang province of China. Gaan Gwok-dung didn't ignore the fact that a base in Coeng'dou would shorten the southern borderline effectively too.

Rodrico Stak : Thanks.

Actually I prefer testing atomic weapon at Gobi Desert(a desert north of the great wall, also known as the "great desert" by Chinese), since even Korla desert had some remote towns there, and there are absolutely nothing but rocks and sands in Gobi Desert.
(Also, testing such a horrifying weapon at the border with Soviets certainly feels good) :rofl:

Edit : If you insist, we can also test atomic weapon in other's lands.

OAM : Thanks

Crush3r : Well, they remembered how many resources we traded to them.
We will not have claims on Formosa until we are at war with Japan.

Nice plans about the navy, I would try to do so if Cantonia have built or traded enough ships. Also, how about CVs? Strangely, it is the eastest ships we can build.

The shadow of war (1)
(1939.02.06 - 1939.04.05)


Pope Pius XI was dead on February. Catholic Christians in Cantonia were sad about this news.


Dai 1 Gwan Si'ling'bou, or Command Base of 1st Army, was depolyed to the 1st Army. Gaan Gwok-dung believed that this Command Base would make his command more clear.



On March 15, Germany annexed Bohemia, and installed a puppet regime in slovakia. As usual, the Allies didn't react so much. 9 days later, Germany claimed the city of Memel. No one dared to stop her expension.
"If Cantonia is as strong as Germany......" Gaan Gwok-dung thought.



Italy probably tried to learn from the Germans, but it seems that they didn't learn well.


After several diplomatic failure, the Allies finally did something probably useful to stop Germany. Poland was part of the Allies now.




Some technological advances.

Crush3r : He should be supporting this as his trait was Army Aviation Doctrine.
Please post some relevant data(picture, skills etc) as I need them to cerate new techteam.

The shadow of war (2)
(1939.04.06 - 1939.08.29)


The first expansion of Cantonian Industry was done in May 12. Industrial sectors of 5 cities were expanded, which means the productivity of Cantonia was improved.


To utilise all these new factories, Cantonian Army announced a plan to expend her army. 240 thousand soldiers will be in the ranks 6 months.


Finally, Italy annexed the small nation of Albania. Not many outside Italy and Albania care though.


With the Airforce and Navy cooperated well, the development of Aircraft Carrier was done. Now Cantonia can build Aircraft Carriers.







Some minor technological advances.

The dice is cast
(1939.08.30 - 1939.10.01)


After Poland refused to cede the port city of Danzig to Germany, they declared war upon Poland. Germany claimed that several Polish soldiers captured a radio tower and announce the declaration of war first. Later, the Allies declared war upon Germany.

War, after 25 years, loomed upon Europe again.

However, this news did less shocking in Asia, as none of the Asian nations were involved in this war. Gaan Gwok-dung was calm when he heard about this war too.
"Predictable." He commented.



The Blitzkrieg doctrine used by German Armed Force showed its might to Polish forces. Half of Poland was fallen in just 2 weeks. After Warsaw's fall on September 15, Soviet troops invaded Eastern Poland. Being squeezed by two major powers, Poland finally fallen.
"That's why I don't rely on allies so much." Gaan Gwok-dung said to the Polish ambassador, when he was going to took his flight back to London.




Technological advances.

Cantonian government, October 1, 1939.


Technology of Cantonia, October 1, 1939. The "Project 1" of the document was erased, and written as "Top Secret".


Europe, October 1, 1939. Not much changed since the fall of Poland.

Crush3r : I will add it.
