In New England (OOC: Keep in mind that the attack has been going on for a couple of months already. This is a summation.):
German troops, acting on orders from the General Staff, continued their advance into New York and Massachusetts. The forces of the UDSA, badly demoralized and poorly supplied, faced massive desertions. The military of the UDSA evaporated in a matter of weeks as the German forces advanced northwards towards the Canadian border. As the German and CRME forces advanced, so did the UDSA disintegrate. They surrendered to the Germans by the tens of thousands. In some cases, conservatives welcomed the arrival of the Germans as liberators from the evil liberalism of Demesos.
The last remaining cohesive units of the UDSA Army were besieged at Albany. Having thoroughly entrenched themselves around the city and having gathered considerable stockpiles of food, the UDSA forces were expected to hold out for a long time. Unwilling to commit the manpower and resources to storm the defenses around Albany, the German General Staff ordered the commanders of the German Expeditionary force to lay siege to the city. The Germans unleashed a formidable artillery barrage and aerial bombardment upon Albany. Day and night, day after day, the Germans bombarded Albany from the sky and by artillery.
The resolve of the remaining Demesosian forces was incredible. They were willing to fight to the last man. After two weeks of siege and bombardment, the UDSA forces continued to hold out against nearly impossible odds. Thus far the siege had not been broken, but the rest of New York and Massachusetts had been consolidated by German and CRME troops.
After the areas were consolidated, the Germans moved quickly to crush any potential resistance. Government records were seized, revealing to the Germans the names of every civilian gun owner in New York and Massachusetts. As the civilian firearms were seized, the Germans began to take action against partisan resistance across the countryside of New England.
(OOC: This next part is secret. None of you actually know this.)
While the military was busy destroying any possible sources of armed resistance and bombarding the enemy at Albany, the Directorate of Strategic Operations secretly took action against potential political enemies. Lists were issued by the central offices of the Directorate in Berlin which contained all potential political insurgents in occupied New England. Tens of thousands vanished into the night, seized by the agents of the Directorate. Prominent liberals, pro-Demesosians, socialists, communists, and other leftists disappeared into the night. They left New England aboard freighters, piled into the cargo holds like cattle. The same ships which delivered the German Expeditionary Force with supplies, equipment, and food returned to Germany filled with the political degenerates of New England. In some cases, entire families were loaded onto freighters as insurgents. Kennedys, Clintons, Gores, and Rodhams, none were left behind to cause trouble for the Germans and their conservative leaders and allies.
