I would pounce on Mongolia and Tibet while they are distracted if you think you can take them. That will secure your Western border and strengthen you in preparation for the war with the AOG

I did an research on the events of Qing Empire and I saw a Chain of events that may give me AOG without a fight.
 
Yes, once certain conditions are met (I think the defeat of Warlords in the region and an alliance with Germany) results in the possibility of a 'The Qing has become much stronger, give them the AoG?' event firing.

The imperial armies convinced the citizens and villagers that the fall of Shanqing is not caused by the foreign corruption but a will to reunite china against the Germans. The peoples of these provinces was pleased hearing that the Xuantong Empire Puyi have decided to rebuild the Empire and end annihilate the Foreign corruption once and for all.

Puyi was pleased by the victorious of this war and mostly impressed by the well planned strategical assaults laid by Duan Qirui and Zhang Xueliang and gave them a big reward.

14kdzet.jpg


He also promoted the other officers who fought in this glorious battle.

After arriving in Beijing. A trial was held for all the rebel leaders of Shanqing Tianguo. According to the laws of Qing Empire, Zhang Tianran, along with the other rebel leader will be executed. Before the Trial could complete, Wang Zuanxu, Zhang Xueliang and the Head of Government Xu Shichang came to talk to Puyi.

"Your majesty, Executing Zhang Tianran will only cause more partisan activity in our country. It will also be a total waste to lose such a good strategical genius like Zhang Tianran" The three of them agreed.

After hearing this, Puyi asked: "Then what do you want me to do?"
"Spare them, Try to convince Zhang as a Strategic Adviser in Guerilla Warfare, He will prove useful for the Empire this way."

Before the Trial was conflict and Zhang will sentenced to death, Puyi entered the court.

The judge and the guards bowed down in Kou-tou position and said "Seeing he's majesty."
Puyi commanded them to stand up, then he walked to the judge.
"I'll take care of the Trial."
"But..."
Puyi made the sign for the judge to stop talking.
"Do you disobey your emperor?"
"Nooo! I'm Sorry your majesty." The judge bowed down again in panic.
Puyi made the sign for him to stand up and then he looked at Zhang Tianran and the other rebel leaders.

"According to the laws of Qing Empire. Revolting against the Empire is a death crime and the offender will be executed."
The crowd outside the court begins to get worried and aggressive after hearing this

"But after all these years, You have proved yourself as a worthy leader and a strong man. Killing you will be a total waste and cause more rebellious activity in our Country."
Zhang raised he's head and looked at Puyi.

"As the Emperor och Qing. I will spare you for the sake of my country and I will award you the position as the Royal Strategic Adviser of Qing empire."

Zhang tianran was surprised by the judgment and bowed down and said.
"Thanks Your Majesty."
"And for the rest..." puyi turned he's attention toward the other rebel leaders.
"I will spare everyone of you. I will not give you a specific post right now but you will still have great meanings for the government and the Country. Whenever we need your aid, You must respond. But for now, You can return home to your wives and child. It must have been long since you had your feet inside your house."

Every pre-rebel leaders thanked Puyi for sparing them. Puyi felt now that Parts of China have Returned to Qing Empire.

After the Trial. Puyi ordered Full focus on the Naval. If they are going to fight the Japanese. A powerful navy was required. Other researches on military and industrialization was also made.

11blz0j.jpg


A big Victory celebration party was held one week after. Zhang Tianran and he's wife are also invited. as Zhang stepped into the party dressed in Tang Zhuang like every other guests.

Politic was an interesting subject to discuss in the tables.
Zhang tianran walked over to Puyi, Bowed down and asked.
"You majesty. What's your next move?"
Puyi looked at Zhang and replayed
"Our major priority is to reunite China under our flag, But we must be careful. The Germans isn't something to play with."
"So, What's are we going to do? Wait for them give AOG to us?"
"Easy, I never said that we shall wait for them to give in."
"Then what shall we do?"
Puyi then winked and pointed on he's head and said: "To deal with the Germans, We need to use our brains."
Zhang tianran didn't understand at first and then he knew what puyi's thinking.

Meanwhile the situation around the world are getting more and more restless.
Days are passed by without a major war but carefully observing the ongoing battles.

As new reforms are made. The Government are becoming less foreign influenced and one day on a governmental meeting. Puyi said:
"Our Empire have grown stronger in two years, Soon we're ready to take action against our Foreign oppressors and reunite china, But we still need more reforms and strategical planning on our next moves, It's been to long for us to stop."

The Prime minister, Xu Shichang then bowed down and said.
"Your majesty. I have a wish if you don't mind saying it before every one."
"What is your wish prime minister?" Puyi asked
"I have governed this country for many years now, I'm nothing but an old man now. It's time for a younger generation to emerge. I will leave my post as the Prime minister."
"I see. I guess we can't stop you then." Puyi said
"Do you got any suggestion on somebody who is capable of taking the Prime minister place?"

23w5k51.jpg


"Yes, Wang Kemin, He have served you for more then 8 months now and the citizens across the Country likes him because of he's hard work to aid the people and BB Kung who is a professional banker and a expert on Market Economy, He will push the empires economy all the way to the top.

The meeting ended here and Puyi invited BB kung, Wang Kemin and Xu Shichang over for a talk about the post as head of Government.

The German also came up with support after hearing that Qing Empire are changing head of Government. But they were all rejected by Puyi. The next day Xu Shichang was retired and Wang Kemin is now the new Prime minister and head of Government.
Back in Xu's apartment. Once Xu finish packing he's luggage and is now leaving Beijing to return to he's old home. Puyi and the whole governmental diet along with the citizens of Beijing was gathered outside the city gates to say farewell.

From this day. Nearly all of the foreign corruption was deleted and the Chinese dragon is born anew
 
That was awfully nice of you to let them live!

So, when is Yunnan and AOG gonna become your territory?
 
AOG Homecoming.

The Foreign corruption and control over China have almost been cleansed after the political reform. Now with a new head of government, Wang Kemin. The Qing Empire is renewed from the corrupted, German installed Government. Nearly all the German politicians have been banished sparring only Otto Ciliax as chief of Navy.

The Empire will not stop expanding and evolving. It's too late to turn back. Puyi will keep he's promises and continue on building up China. New reforms are still in process and further modernization.
Meanwhile this was happening.

The end of the American Civil war is about to end with the fall of the Anarchist faction CSA. USA, lead by Douglas MacArthur have pushed the rebells into the corners of the country and USA into it's Victory.

As this is still not concerning Qing Empire. Puyi have ordered the ministers to not pay to much attention about the situation in america right now.

The Modernization is on full process, The factories have been upgraded with new mechanics that will help the productions. Now modernization is almost half way through but it's still work to do. New Ship technologies must be developed and a Navy must be built, The soldiers need more better weapons and new strategies and Warfare have to be developed.

News about America winning the Civil war reached Qing Empire. The Union states have fallen and USA have one the war.

But USA is now left split up in PSA and USA with a weapon truce with USA promising to leave them alone.

Puyi have decided to rise the relationship between America and Qing Empire so that the both of the Countries will avoid fire.

Things are happening in europe. The tention between the Central powers and the third international are heating, A war might have started when france demanded territory from swiss Luckily, swiss just gave in and an armed conflict was avoided.

Puyi and nearly all of the Royal diet was relived that nothing happened.

2duz702.jpg


The American Civil war have ended and it looks like the Peace between USA and PSA was kept. It is peace now in America.

29f9jwk.jpg


Then News concerning Spain have reached Qing Empire. The Kingdom of spain have been annihilated and that CNT-FAI is the strongest of the two remaining factions.

Puyi have decided that all support to spain shall be planned carefully and that they must support the both factions.

After the new year celebrations...

qwyb21.jpg


The Border Scouts have reported that Xibei San Ma warlord have benn surrounded by Tibet and Mongolian forces.

"Your majesty! If this war continues, Maybe the Mongolian will turn against us. We need to take action immediately!" Said Wu Peifu

Puyi thought a second and said. "No, We shall avoid being dragged into others conflict right now, Even though they may become an enemy for the Qing Empire, We need to be careful. Let them fight, I got plans for the Mongolians later."

The Chinese new year is now here and passed by just as fast as the previous once.

2z87thz.jpg


Puyi took this opportunity to speak to the people. And there again. He stood on the gates of the forbidden city and Speeched:
"The Citizens of Qing Empire! Another year have passed by now, As time keeps moving forward, our Empire will also move forward. Today, We are much stronger then we where 2 years ago. Our Community, Economy and Technology have advanced outside the thoughts of our German oppressors. Now we got nearly the strongest army of the whole Asia and it is also comparable with European once. We don't have to fear our enemies now. This year is the year of the tiger, It is also the year when the Chinese people will make a stand. This year is the start of the process of reunion will start. Even though we are strong, but to deal with Germany and it's Central power, we need to use our minds. Our knowledge is our most powerful weapon and that is what they shall fear. Today, I will announce to the world that the people of the Dragon have risen and our names will spread with the wind, telling the world that we Chinese will not any longer be slaves of the European. Today is the First day of Independence of the Qing Empire, The First day of Chinese Independence!"

The word of Puyi spread with the wind which brought it to the every corner of the world. And on February 11th:

An meeting concerning the destiny of Qing Empire was held. On the meeting. Puyi have decided to pursuit the AOG for a reunion. The rumors spread quickly into the ears of the board-directors of AOG. Von Falkenhausen and The Board directors knew about that Qing empire have become more powerful then ever. A battle will be dangerous.

Awwww, Democratic USA allowing the PSA to exist? You gotta fix that.
 
Longyun's Commission, THE NEW QING DYNASTY

The AOG base in southern China have fallen and the land have been reunited with the mighty Qing empire. Germany have lost their strongest grip on Asia and the economy have been hurt. Meanwhile other events are taking place. An emergency meeting in Berlin considering this was held.

1izcye.jpg


"We just lost our base in southern asia, We need to take action about this to please our people". Kaiser Wilhelm said.

As the meeting ended, Decision was made that Germany will persuade Puyi with an Ultimatum that several trade agreements will be made so that the economical problem will be solved.

Kaiser Wilhelm, the Foreign minister Friedrich-Werner von der Schulenberg and Otto Meissner went to china to meet with Puyi, Wang Zuanxu and Wang Kemin and deliver the ultimatum.

Puyi agreed to meet with Wilhelm in Nanjing Germany ambassador office. As the German arrived at the office in Nanjing Puyi and he's personals have already arrived and waiting on the German emperor and he's personal. When Wilhelm showed up in the office, Nearly all the personals bowed down to welcome Kaiser Wilhelm, Except for Puyi, Kemin and Zuanxu. Kaiser wilhelm stared at Puyi who stared back. Both eyes where glowing with the power of men.Then Kaiser Wilhelm opened he's mouth and said: "Not bad kid. Looks like you've grown alot."
"You have gotten older to, old man" Puyi replayed.
This scene witnessed by the ambassador and the meeting personals of both side marked told Kaiser Wilhelm that this was not longer the Qing Empire that they recreated, This is a new born Qing Empire.

Now when every attendant sat around a round table, the meeting have started. The German demanded that Qing Empire shall accept their trades and in change, they shall have the Southern China.
"This will help us both, a rejection might cause war between the both countries."
After hearing their demands everyones attention was turned to Puyi.
After i little pause, Puyi answered with a smile.
"What if I really did refuse this ultimatum? Do you really want to cause a full-scale war between us?"
"What do you mean?" Kaiser Wilhelm looked seriously at Puyi. "Will you really take that risk? We are the once who gave you back the power in China, You will never have been the leader of China if it we didn't restore the Qing Empire."
"It's true, You where the once who restored my power. I really owe you for that, but I'm the Emperor of Qing Empire and her people, I have to do what I have to do, the Chinese have been enslaved by you Europeans for many years now and they're longing for Freedom. As their Emperor, I will lead them to that freedom, I will bring them freedom and liberty."
"So you're refusing our demands?" Kaiser Wilhelm looked at Puyi and then understood inside he's heart that this isn't the same kid who lost he's throne nearly 30 years ago.
"Yes."
"Do you really want to take the risk of a Full-scale war?"
"Do whatever you want to, If you plan to aim your guns against China, I will aim back. I'm not longer the kid who you returned the throne to. Today I'm Xuantong Emperor, The leader of the People of Dragon. And I'm ready to fight for the peoples freedom."
After hearing this, Kaiser Wilhelm lowered he's head and began to laugh. After a while he said. "Very well, in that case, I will not bother you anymore"

The meeting ended and Kaiser Wilhelm took the fastest plane heading back to Germany, Von der Schulenberg asked Wilhelm. "Eure Majestät Wilhelm, What's our next move? Shall we mobilize our army and prepare for war?"

"Let them go, We can't afford a war against QIng Empire. They have gotten stronger, Didn't you sense the aura of Puyi? He got more self determination then before, The same with the Country. A War might take forever and we'll surely lose if the Ententes or the International blends in."

And so, a full-scale war was avoided. This event also marked cut off German control over Qing Empire to the World.

Back in europe, Things are getting hotter.

Puyi have decided to ignore Africa for now but another news from Germany reached Puyi: shortly after the meeting about AOG a moving based on Mein Kampf was released, Unser kampf.

Even though it's success, Puyi and the Government have decided NOT to watch it and allow to import it into the Empire

Puyi Commented: "okay, Now when one of the Ententes personal joined the game, It's clear who's the victorious."

333frsy.jpg


On the meeting 11: August

Puyi asked the Diet:
"What shall we do about Long Yun?"
Many words were circulating and before the end of the meeting Wang zuanxu said:
"We shall threat them, They don't know the might of the Empire, Through this- He will understand that we mean business."
After hearing this, Puyi smiled and said:
"I agree, Long yun have no knowledge about our situation, If we threatens him, He will understand. Hopefully we can win this affair without fire but a battle isn't too risky, Our army have far surpassed he's."

The next day in Kunming
"Lord Long Yun! Puyi have threatened US! What's our Decision"
Long yun thought about a minute and then said. "We shall gave in, Arrange a meeting with the Emperor."

Puyi and Wang Kemin arrived at the Meeting Table in Kunming the next day.
Long yun Began to talk.
"I've heard about that you seek to reunite China, Your Majesty."
"It's true, It is our only way to make a stand against Europe and restore our place as a World Power."
"I see. Then you will not let Yunnan walk away."
"It's true, And that's why we've threatened you."

35d6po1.jpg


"Well, I see. Then... I will not resist any more. Qing Empire is Stronger reunited then Thorn apart."
"You mean?"
Long yun looked at Puyi and smiled
"Tomorrow, I will pack my luggage and go back home, Yunnan needs a stronger leader. Your Majesty, I will give Yunnan to you so that she could be reunited with the rest of China."
Puyi smiled
"You don't have to leave, Did I tell you to Quit? Even though you lost your power here in Yunnan, You are still useful for the Empire. I'll give you a post in the Army."

As the meeting was ended Both side was pleased. Puyi and Long Yun shaked their hands. Longyun then announce that Yunnan have rejoined Qing Empire

On this day, The Chinese dragon Flow up the sky and marked beginning of a newborn Qing Dynasty.
 
Hm, interesting, I never saw the Tuaregs before.
 
My hopes to them they win, it'd be nice to see the Entente crippled for once.
 
Good show! Are all of the Chinese factions as powerful as the Qing in KR? Nationalist china would kill to have a skill 6 tech team in vanilla.

Idk. Qing Empire is a strong faction if human controlled. The same goes with the others I think. The Qing AI is quite corrupted once and almost Worth less but the human controlled Qing Empire can be stronger then Even Japan.

I don't know, I've only tried out Qing Empire and Shanqing Tianguo.
 
Finally! I got my time and appetite back on playing HoI2 Kaiserreich :D

So ladies and gentlemen, I'm BAAAACK! :D

Sry for keeping you waiting. I lost the appetite for the game when I were spending times with my other hobbies and studies.

Here will be some updates coming, Enjoy ;)
 
The Dragon and the Wolf- Beginning

Puyi stood on the gates of the forbidden city and was looked out the new Qing Dynasty and her citizens. The disappointment and displease was almost been washed away since the day of the reunion with the southern china. The citizens may have understand now that their emperor is not a stubborn child puppet anymore. He's their leader, their brave emperor who have set his mind on reuniting china and make her stronger then it ever been.
The streets look different now compared to 2 years ago. It's more modern and it is filled with new life.

But there is still many things that have to be done. Like driving out the mongols to the north and the Japanese in Manchuria. Considering Mongolia

31431pz.jpg


Just two days after the rebirth of the empire, Xibei San Ma was defeated, and Ma Hongkui's entire territory have been occupied by the Mongols and Tibetans.

On the next parliamentary meeting:

"What's our action considering Mongolia?" Puyi Asked.
"Their Territory is now greater then before now that they have annexed the entire Islamic area originally controlled by Xibei Sanma." said the foreign minister Wang Zuanxu. "We need to arm our troops and prepare to counter a mongolian assault."
"I agree with the foreign minister" Said the Chief of Army Wu Peifu
"Let's get it done then" said Zhang Xueliang
Puyi standed up
"I agree, That Sternberg may seek to expand the Mongolian territory at the cost of our Empire, A war maybe unavoidable." He said
"But some of the Mongolian territory is originally ours, Let's try for a negotiation."

Puyi hesitated a bit, and said.

"Very well, Let's try for a negotiation and look for a peace full way to get back what is rightfully ours, but we can't still be unprepared for a coming war between our sides." Puyi glanced at the foreign minister.
"Wang Zuanxu, Find a meeting time for us and Sternberg."
He then turned over to Wu Peifu and Zhang Xueliang.
"If a war is triggered, We got no choice but fight, prepare our army for a mongolian defensive."

On September:

300h7gp.jpg


A good meeting time have been arranged by Wang Zuanxu, And a request is sent to Mongolia

2mhvur8.jpg


Sternberg agreed to meet with Puyi after the getting the meeting request.

He arrived early in Beijing.
When arriving at the negotiation table, he was met by Puyi, Wang Kemin and Wang Zuanxu. They sat down, the servants served them some tea and the negotiation began.

"So, You want to negotiate over our territory?"
"Yes, that's right" Puyi answered.
"Well... what's your demand?" Sternberg asked.
"We will hear your demand first."
Puyi starred at Sternberg and said
"What we'll demand is the territory that is originally ours."
"And that means...?" Sternberg asked

2mhvur8.jpg


"The territory of between Ningxia and Sinkiang."
"Is that your demands?" Sternberg asked
"YES" Puyi answered
Sternberg then samshed the tea cup on the negotiation table and it broke into pieces. He's face was re of anger. and he then said.
"Tell me, Why do you think that I'll hand all of that to you? Do you think I came all the way here just to get insulted?"
"We never planned to insult you." said Puyi
"I have no plans on giving you those territory, I've conquered them with my army and I'll never hand them over, peacefully."
Sternberg turned he's back and was walking out from the meeting room.
Before exiting.

14cxnjt.jpg


"We wouldn't give you our territory but I want yours, and I wouldn't let you get away easy for this insult, This means war Puyi!"

Sternberg marched out of the meeting room. Puyi and he's politicians looked at each other then Puyi commanded: "Prepare our armies."

Before leaving the meeting room, Wang Kemin commented: "What a Short tempered Leader."
