07 Jan 1945: With the victory in the United Kingdom the war is far from over. Major nations still have to be conquered in order for Germany to return to peace. These nations are India, Manchuria and Arabia. We still have loose ends in Europe though. I'm deleting all orders for Panzerarmee Manstein to ensure there are no old orders which could interfere with new operations. What annoys me is that all the Spanish territory we have liberated now belongs to the Iberian Socialist Union and that means Comintern. Another mess we have to take care of but it can wait.
This Breton Republic also needs to be neutralized so I use units from the Artillerie-Korps to take care of them..
I also need to shore-up the territories in the Russian Empire. The Allies have built up Manchuria and it has become a major threat. I change which regions the 1. Armee Romanien garrisons. I ungarrison regions in the west of Alash Orda and place garrison orders on Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan . Both are members of the Allies and if they are called into the war divisions from this army will try to enter that country, i.e. automatically invade.
I delete all orders for the 2. Armee Romanien because they are currently on the border with Communist China, a neutral country.
I order it to the Manchurian border in Siberia. We have to conquer Manchuria not the nations it is occupying.
I add 5 more divisions from the 1. Armee Romanien.
They'll take a while to get there but they are in transit.
Here are divisions from 1. Armee Romanien in transit.
We are still losing Merchant Ships carrying imports. Time to give more protection now that the main threat for the Royal Navy has diminished.
I order the 2. U-Boots Flottille into the Eastern Mediterranean....
....and the Mittelmeerflotte into the Central Mediterranean.
The Ostseeflotte with 3 Aircraft Carriers is moved into the Western Mediterranean.
I also add 3 U-Boots from the training group to the fleet..
Greece is now at 85% towards capitulation. Another loose end.
08 Jan 1945. I add more divisions to 2nd Army at Stalingrad and order it to Siberia north of Manchuria.
I order Armee Russland to attack in order to keep the Manchurians busy and draw forces away from their homeland.
Now to Greece. I give orders to mop-up defenders on the mainland.
09 Jan 1945: We have captured Lisbon but the Allies are trying to recapture it with an amphibious assault.
Now Tajikistan joins the war and unfortunately my plans in Central Asia are still in preparation. It's a small country though so it won't have many divisions.
We are fighting on multiple fronts at the moment and try to stabilize things so that I can go on the offensive again.
