CHINESE GAZETTE 1st Decade of the Kai-shek Republic (1774 AD)
Shocking News Revealed! MUST SEE!
In what is being called the dupe of the century, Chinese officials have just released earth-shattering news. With the new dynasty of Kai-shek in its infancy, state employees have been swamped with a mountain of tasks in an attempt to clean up after the recently ousted Tse Tung Republic. It was not until recently that a report on the War with Russia was found in the deceased Defense Minister's office. This Casualty report clearly shows that NO Russian Freight has EVER been attacked and destroyed by ANY Chinese Unit. In fact, no modern day units of Russia have been destroyed at the hands of the Chinese either. Historical reports show that the Russians used a SUPPOSED attack on freight as an excuse to invade China for the preservation of Trade. Such clandestine approaches to world politics, when discovered can not be rewarded. The Republic senate has suspended all agreements with the Russian State, until exact details can be accessed. However, officials expect, unless further justification can be found, that the Treaty with Russia will be voided. In addition, if these results are proven, reparations will be sought in the world court against Russia.
Baptism by Fire for Consul Chiang Kai-shek
"Welcome to our world, Mr. Kai-shek, now give me…" or "You owe me this…" These were just some of the phrases heard by our new leader Chiang in his meetings with the world's Heads of State. Bombarded by demands from around the world and faced with domestic turmoil in many key cities, Chiang applied the same skills of Diplomacy and Management, which got him elected Proconsul, to the chaos at hand. By simultaneously ceasing the dedication to science that has enveloped the rest of the world, and by building up the Treasury and increasing the luxury rate, the Chinese population has boomed in happiness never seen before. The new Imperial Senate has also instituted sweeping city reforms and imposed a new four year mandatory service requirement, all part of the new Rearmament Plan of 1766. "With a strong treasury, economy, and military, China will no longer bow down to Foreign Pressures. Chinese citizens have been subjected long enough to mediocrity, this will be no more."
Russian Deal Frees New Yakutsk
After a long, drawn out battle of diplomatic wits, war was narrowly avoided with Russia this decade. Upon reestablishing order in the land, the Imperial Senate began the road to restoration of the old Republic. The first step came when the JTF accepted a cease-fire in hostilities. The second step was much more difficult to take. By seeking the restoration of New Yakutsk to Chinese rule, officials hoped for the return of the merchant fleet to the seas. Russian insistence for reparations (on which validity is now under investigation) sparked heavy negotiations between the two nations. With crack troops ready to strike, war was averted at the last moment and our troops were pulled back in order for negotiations to begin. For the return of New Yakutsk, Russia opened with the demand of 200 gold, mobile warfare, and an undetermined city. China's foreign minister countered with the offering of the Kamchatka Peninsula for Russian settlement and 200 gold or mobile warfare. The final settlement allowed for three small Russian settlements in the extended Kamchatka Peninsula and 750 gold and the ban on offensive naval units out of New Yakutsk.
Vikings Pursue Policy of Blatant Expansionism
While the Russian situation heated up, the invasion of Korea ceased and Chinese military forces took a defensive stance along the frontiers; the Vikings quietly pursued the "return" of Nanking. Many officials old enough to recall the history of China/Viking relations have called it the insult of the century. With the demand for Nanking dumped upon the Imperial Senate, these older Chinese and foreign officials were quick to come forward with stories of the rape of Nanking and four other former Chinese cities by the Viking horde, in what has been called blatant expansionism. Chiang was given a standing ovation as he appeared before the Imperial Senate and proclaimed the refusal to give up Chinese citizens to any foreign government. Negotiations over the remaining four Chinese cities has reportedly gone poorly. Coming off of their hard fought diplomacy battle with the Russians, Chinese diplomats welcomed a break in discussions with the Vikings, as both sides were clearly tired from the long day of battles.
On Lighter Side
The Chinese Republic was proud to be involved in the shattering of the world trade record. Novisibrisk received silk from far away Bogota for a record 1109 gold trade profit; The JTF was kind enough to share the profits with China.
