Near death experience....for the army of the empire!!!
Cool aar
Thx a bunch!
Back to the front....
Jun 1st, 1940
More happenings on June 1st, Joseph Stalin went the way of Hitler… Baltic nation of Latvia as a fascist state do not align to that of Stalin’s.
Luvsanshara (Head of Gov): Wow-wee!! Uncle Joe has the same ambition as Hitler!
Amar (Head of State): And us! Territory matters! It is a sign of a nation greatness!
Jun 2nd, 1940
Luvsanshara (Head of Gov): More fighting willies with blazing artilleries from the deal with Stalin!
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): That should bring our infantry division count from 12 to 14! But we’re still smaller than Khan’s ancient army of 200,000 men!
Luvsanshara (Head of Gov): Yes, yes. Get me more lands, more recruits and our army shall grow!!!
Jun 3rd, 1940
Nyambuu (Intel): The city of Jinan is teeming with people who supported the Yuan Dynasty of Khan and who would have re-join us at first opportunity!
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): Then opportunity must be given to them! Storm across the Yellow River!
Insufficiently defended Jinan fall prey to the Mongol hordes! Those who yearns to be with the glorious army of Khan rejoices, those who did not faced death. Well it means 90% gets slain, muahahahahaa!! No wonder Mongolia only gets 10% of captured foreign manpower! :rofl:
Jun 7th, 1940
More encirclement of Japanese forces south of Beijing and attempts of reinforcement of Jinan by the Japanese are thwarted. The Japanese forces are sill considerable in numbers and are fighting back!
Jun 9th, 1940
Jinan fell to FM Choybalsan finally. Despite a three sides counterattack by Japanese, Mongol stood their ground and as a results, Japanese attacks falters.
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): As usual, when we advance in strength, we are undefeatable. We shall take Qingdao quickly as to entrapped Japanese divisions at Yantai!
Nyambuu (Intel): Qingdao enemy numbers too many, we need to recuperate our army sufficiently before we could attack!
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): If we cannot attack fast, we have a real danger of being encircled if Japanese were to counter-advance to Yucheng to our rear!!
After the long and brutal battle for Jinan that requires crossing of Yellow River, the Mongol army are more than half depleted in term new battle preparedness. The Mongols needs to recuperate first before carrying out Choybalsan’s plan but time is not on their side! Will the lightly defended Yucheng fall before the Yantai could be cut-off and attacked? The dilemma is intense. The entire Mongol army could be wiped off based on the next course of action!!!
Lhumbe (Armaments): Hello Generals. Just to inform you that our IC hit 41/31, a new peak!
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): What "I see"??! I See what? Don’t see nothing! I’m trying to think here!
Fate of Mongolia in my hands..!!
Jun 14th, 1940
Lhumbe (Armaments): We have discovered some advance mechanical calculators, the abacus is now obsolete! A more sexy name to it is Census Tabulating Machine!
Luvsanshara (Head of Gov): It looks kind of a soup-up typewriter, it better be assisting the war effort and not just help your secretary do her report!
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): Gimme Deep Logistics! Our empire is becoming so large and we need better logistical support!
Lhumbe (Armaments): Right away! For that we enlist top notch Mr Honda who has skill level no other team could match to do the job!
Luvsanshara (Head of Gov): With blueprints here, it better be done in less than 6 months!
Jun 15th – 20th, 1940
Luvsanshara (Head of Gov): Two nations back to back annexations by Stalin within a span of a week!
Amar (Head of State): Cruel but great! I wonder when is our turn to do the same!
Jun 21st, 1940
Back in Jinan…
Nyambuu (Intel): Our position is too precarious. If Yucheng falls, the Mongol army and empire is no more! Japanese for the 3rd time has landed in Tianjin. (1st picture) They could reach Yucheng without needing to cross Yellow River!
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): You’re right, if we cannot advance now, we must fall back immediately. Back to Yucheng!
But on Jun 22nd, Yucheng fell to Japanese cutting supplies off 95% of the entire Mongol army!
(2nd picture). The Japanese arrives ONE HOUR before the Mongol army from Jinan reaches Yucheng at 1200hours before Choybalsan army’s ETA of 1300hours!
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): Sons of Khan!! Breakout from this encirclement!!
With the Mongolian being outran by an hour and isolated, 13 Japanese division from four sides attempted to destroy the entrapped Mongolian army (3rd picture) The lead Mongolian elements of General Luvsan’s 2nd Armjia has reached Yucheng after defeating the Japanese but the province is still under the enemy control as Japanese is still trying to attack it, strange but true.
But by June 23rd 0200hours, Japanese attack on Yucheng ceased ceding control of the province back to Mongol. (4th picture) restoring vital supply line to the Mongol army that had yet to cross the Yellow River at Jinan.
Choybalsan (Chief of Army): Our armies are battered but alive! This is a near death experience that all Mongol warriors should cherish! It makes us stronger!!
For a nail-biting 14hours, the Mongol Army was on the verge of being exterminated but the sons of Khan shall always prevail!!!
Jun 24th, 1940
The Japanese division at Tianjin is promptly finished off once more. The front is now stabilized with the Mongol army intact!
