[h1]A Shitstorm Brewing[/h1] [h2][b]The Harbinger of Bad News[/b][/h2] [@Trackten] [i]-- Taipeh, Royalist Whampoa[/i] Like a wildfire on the woods, the news from Tokyo has very quickly reached its way to the Taiwanese palace. A messenger hurriedly ran his way to the throne room. "Your Imperial Majesty, I bring news from Tokyo... the Japanese king is holding a declaration..." The sudden relevation left the Empress surprised. She leaned forward with her eyes and mouth open and asked, "Wait, what? What kind of declaration? What is this little Edokko guy up to?" She then [s]shot the messenger[/s] gave the messenger a puzzled look. "It's all over the televisions, the Weltnetz... and our agents also have live streamings of this too... Basically, the Japanese king is talking about some pride and tradition, something about rising up back to the golden age of Edo period..." "The Japanese king ridiculed our generosity, calling it a trap or something... oh hey, they declared war on Koryo!" "Dammit. It cannot be... this little Edokko king... how could he? And why did he chose to play-play right at this moment, when we are busy reclaiming the Mainland? Let's see what game is this little Edokko playing, huh. Summon all my cronies for a meeting, and prepare an online meeting with the Nanyangese too, right now!" "As you wish, my Empress." the messenger knelt once more before rushing his way outside. The Empress turned to face her beloved hubby Franz, "Alright, it's time, let's head for the secured meeting room, my love. Follow me." The imperial couple then left the throne room as they went to the basement for the meeting. [h2][b][u]The Conference[/u][/b][/h2] The whole cabinet and central command was gathered in a secured conference room somewhere in the basement, sealed by layers of technology and magik. A few other royals from the Yong Dynasty were brought in too. "What's with those Japanese partisans, mother?" a young man in a shiny white uniform, who was none other than [b]Archduchess Fatimah[/b], asked. "I thought the Japanese Empire was a thing of distant past like the Roman Empire?" a confused Puan Alida, the Chancellor, asked in doubt. "I hope you are very sure about this, your Imperial Majesty." "As much as I wished otherwise, darlings, it happened and it was very real and true." the Empress solemnly said, "These little wannabes arose in great might all of a sudden, gathering in large numbers and arming themselves up.. And it was right when we are busy in the mainland. They came with their foul words, spreading chaos and hatred amongst the peoples of the Far East. These little partisans emerged overnight with a complete, reformed army, with hungry cries yearning for all the Koryoan lands. Today, they just declared war on Koryo. They have not started a war with us yet, but very soon they will. We must be prepared, [i]Tuanen dan Puanen[/i]." Footages and recordings of Kashimotto's rhetorics were played before their very eyes. As the Taiwanese came to realize what was going on, their disbelief had turned into sheer horror. "This is going to be bad, very bad!" Archduchess Fatimah exclaimed, "I wonder if I am going to get murdered during a trip or something." "Best to keep yourself away from any troubles, Fatimah. Take good care and rest often, don't worry too much, my daughter. And who knows if they have some anime superheroes." the Empress replied. She then continued, "So, how should we cope with this sudden uprising of the wannabes, ladies and gentlemen?" [h2][b][i]Berthold's Whereabouts[/i][/b][/h2] ([i]psst... [@Lasersquid112] here's a reference to the Ice vs. Berthold battle[/i]) The wide screen mounted on the wall then opened up. On the screen are the Nanyangese elites, who proudly sported their Pickelhauben and dressed in dark blue, in contrast with the Taiwanese who wore patrol caps and white-golden uniforms. Curiously, however, Berthold was missing amongst the Nanyangese. "Here comes the Lenggong Clan," Theresia announced, "Greetings from the Yong Dynasty. Wait, where's [i]Kaisar[/i] Berthold, sorry, I mean, [i]Mahakaisar[/i] Berthold?" Franz leaned close to Theresia's ears and whispered, "Heh, I guess, Berthold must be busy mating with his slut Helmina." Theresia chuckled with an evil naughty grin upon hearing that, amused. "Berthold? Oh, our Kaisar of Nanyang, and the [b]Mahakaisar of [u]ALL the WHAMPOANS[/u][/b]. He's busy dealing with a prototype space suit and a Puan Colonel." "What?!" Yong Theresia shouted in shock before falling uncontrollably into laughter, "He is having troubles with a mere space suit and a little colonel?! Are you serious? I thought Berthold is a very powerful man, no?" "Guess the Puan Colonel must be having a really sexy time with Berthold, no?" Archduchess Fatimah added, also laughing uncontrollably. "No," an annoyed Nanyangese groaned, and continued speaking in a bored tone, "this prototype space suit is very, very powerful, no kidding. And the Puan Colonel--" "Excuse me, Encik..." a grinning Franz asked, "Is this Puan Colonel named Helmina?" "Uhh... yes, why?" The Taiwanese immediately burst into chuckles again. Some of them even went rolling off the floor laughing very hard too. "O-ohhh... n-nothing... I hope y-you don't take this personally... i-it's good to have a laugh once in awhile..." [h2][b][i]Back to Business[/i][/b][/h2] "So, jokes aside--" the Nanyangese frowned at Theresia's words, "--I am sure you have heard of the news in Tokyo? I assume so. Do you have any idea what to do with this sudden uprising?" "As we are quite busy on the mainland already, and with the rising frenzy in Koryoan lands, it is best not to stir any troubles there. Let those wannabes be busy with the Koryoans." suggested Puan Alida. "Yes," a Nanyangese minister responded, speaking on behalf of the Nanyangese elites who all agreed with Alida, "We are already very busy on the mainland alread. The Revital bandits have been much tougher than we expected. We don't need another shitstorm behind our backs." "But, we must not leave the wannabes on a rampage! One day soon, they will surely come for us. That day can be at any moment. With each day passing, these wannabes would only grow stronger and tougher. We must get rid of these partisans while Koryo is still standing!" Encik Leopold, the Taiwanese Generaloberst, objected. Puan Alida then refuted in response, "But Koryo is amongst the Entente Powers, our bitter enemies. Also, surely Peiyang would have done something about the wannabe Japanese. No need for us to seek troubles. The Entente Powers don't really hold any respect for us Central Powers, and meddling at this moment would only provoke the Japanese wannabes against us. We are very busy fighting on the mainland already, we need not more shitstorms behind our backs. And, our treasure island Taiwan itself, is [b]very, very close[/b] to what they consider 'Japan'. Besides, Koryo once betrayed us in the last war by switching sides to the Entente." "Puan Alida here says it all. Well, I understand your concerns, Generaloberst Leopold," another Nanyangese statesman spoke, "but the Revital bandits pose a far greater threat than those so-called Japanese will ever do. We must not let ourselves be distracted." "So it's decided then. I think at the very least, we must move our capital to Lemuria, just in case anything shitty breaks out." the Empress herself spoke, "And we must always keep an eye over these wannabe Japanese. Tighten our security in Kyushu and Shikoku, but do not seek any war unless they themselves do so." "Very well." [h2][b]Response from Whampoa[/b][/h2] The transfer of operations were already well underway before the Japanese Uprising emerged. Hours after Japan waged war on Koryo, the Empire of Taiwan has formally moved its capital to [b]Neutaipeh[/b], an elegant city on the distant continent of Lemuria. Afraid of losing more clays, the Taiwanese dramatically bolstered their securities in Kyushu and Shikoku, along with minor Nanyangese assistance. Taiwanese agents and operatives in all of Japan grew to be more watchful and hardworking, but also more sneaky. They tried their very best keeping track of movements and schemes of this Second Japanese Empire. [h1]Uh-oh! The Shit has Hit the Fan![/h1] [@Trackten] [quote=@Trackten] After 2 hours from this speech, it's the official declaration of war, in first step, against the [b]Kingdom of Koryeo[/b]." [/quote] The whole planet was greatly surprised by the sudden uprising in Tokyo, but immediately after the speech, the planet got even more shocked with Japan's sudden warmongering. The Kingdom of Koryo, especially was caught off-guard in the nasty surprise. "[b]This is pure madness![/b]" the King of Koryo condemned, "This horde of weebs and cosplayers in Koryo has really gone too far. Already they have been plaguing our nation with their rhetorics since a few decades back, already they have been tearing our nation apart, and now they have fallen into full terrorism!" The Koryoans in response welcomed the Japanese with warm missiles and guns outside their trenches and walls. Heavy fighting soon ensues. [h2][b]Peiyang Joins the Fray[/b][/h2] Likewise, the State of Peiyang was also spooked and terrified. With the Whampoan Mainland torn in warfare, Peiyang was free to mess with Japan. [b]Yuan Jinping[/b], the Emperor of Peiyang, announced formal military aid and intervention in favor of Koryo. On the other hand, Koryo happily submitted as a proterate to its new suzerain, Peiyang. Many divisions of tanks and troops, together with fleets of warships, were soon rolled out to the Japanese threatre, bolstering the Koryoan side. [h2][b]The Southern Allies[/b][/h2] The three other Entente Powers in the southern seas, namely India, Australia and Indonesia, were also quick to respond too. Heeding Peiyang and Koryo's cry for help, the southern Allies swiftly prepared their armed forces for action. Volunteer and reserve troops were being rallied, while the warships were being prepared to set sail as well. Also, this was a golden opportunity to fuck with the Royalist Whampoans too, who happened to obstruct the way to Japan. Nearly half of the Southern Entente would stumble upon Acheh, Malaya and Tschampa on their way. Much of these outlying Whampoan clays were left lightly defended, as most of the Royalist Whampoans busy elsewhere. With Royalist Whampoa's lack of defense and recognition, the [b][u]southern Entente Powers gladly invaded these lands[/u][/b]. Most Indonesian and some Australian warships headed straight to Japan instead, avoiding as much contact with Taiwan as possible on the way. [h1]Aliens? Aliens![/h1] [@Trackten] [quote] [i]-- Somewhere in the desert of Australia[/i] Somewhere around the vast desert, a strange portal was formed in a strange, mysterious effect. After its formation, a strange figure appeared onto the burning sand, composing its own skin with metallic components along with a strange encrypted sound-wave produced from its own metallic helm before an another figure walked out from the portal with the same appearance. A roar of an engine was heard from the portal before later, a convoys of heavily-armored vehicles appeared out of the portal before numbers of robotic regiments marching out. This is was the starting period of the [i]Colonization of the New World[/i], as said by these strange forces. [/quote] Three squadrons of Australian patrols happened to stumble upon these cyborgs. Upon laying sight on these otherworldly cyborgs, these Australians encircled the robots immediately with their arms aiming at them. "Oh, look, we have some metallic dags here! G'day!" "This is the Australian Imperial Army, strange robots, identify yourselves please!"
