The Great Trial: An Omsk Unification Canon
1962-1978
Part Two: 1970-1978
With the start of the the new decade of the 1970s, Glavkoverkh Dimitry Timofeyevich Yazov began to prepare for a series of new military campaigns and wars to reunify the Russian nation and to begin the Great Trial against the Greater Germanic Reich. In Siberia, the Central Siberian Republic of President Andrei Sakharov and Far Eastern Soviet Republic of Premier Valery Sablin were engaged in a war for the fate of Siberia. Meanwhile, Glavkoverkh Yazov began to prepare for an invasion of the National Republic of Kazakhstan led by the Ukrainian-Kazakhstani fascist dictator Nikolai Nikolayevich Onoprienko, which Kazakhstan being used a springboard for a future invasion of Siberia.
On March 11, 1970, the West Russian Reclamation Government declared war on the National Republic of Kazakhstan, with the armies of infantry and motorized units of the West Russian Black Army advancing at a rapid pace over the steppes of Kazakhstan. On May 10, less then two months after the start of the war, the National Republic of Kazakhstan surrendered to the West Russian Black Army and was annexed into the West Russian Reclamation Government. On June 20, 1970, Onoprienko was executed by the West Russian Black Army. for crimes against the Russian, Kazakh and Polish peoples of Kazakhstan. After over a year of planning and preparation, on July 1, 1971, the West Russian Reclamation Government declared war on the Central Siberian Republic and the Far Eastern Soviet Republic, which were still locked in a bitter war with each other and were left completely unprepared for an invasion from the West Russian Reclamation Government. One month later, on August 1, 1971, the Central Siberian Republic surrendered to the Far Eastern Soviet Republic, with President Sakharov fleeing to the United States of America, leaving only Yazov and Sablin to fight over the re-unification of Russia, and it obvious to all who would win the war. On January 31, 1972, Premier Valery Sablin surrendered his government to the West Russian Black Army, and with that, all of Russia not under the rule of the Greater Germanic Reich was finally re-unified under the rule of now renamed Russian National Reclamation Government and the Russian Black Army.
With the first phase of Russian Reunification complete, it was know time to begin preparing the second phase of Russian Reunification and the Great Trial against the Greater Germanic Reich. After two years of preparation, the perfect opportunity for war came on January 22, 1974, with Führer Martin Bormann died of cancer, leading to a succession crisis in Germania, the rise of Generalleutnant Hans Speidel as interim-Führer, numerous units of Wermacht, which was still recovering from the costly Burgundian War of 1973, refusing to recognize the authority of the government in Germania and the collapse of the Einheitspakt. As a result, on April 1, 1974, Glavkoverkh Yazov decaled a surprise war against the Greater Germanic Reich and launched a massive, infantry, motorized and armored invasion of RK Moskowien, which was also accompanied by numerous small-scale nuclear warhead and biogocial weapons strikes.
With the start of the Third Russo-German War, the German government of Hans Speidel was completely unprepared for a war against a newly resurgent Russia and was horrified by the news of nuclear strikes against German armies and German civilians. Still, the Russian invasion gave the German government and Wehrmacht a renewed resolve to unify around Speidel's government, if only temporary, to fight back against the Russian Black Army. Nevertheless, this would not be enough to defeat the Russian Black Army and their invasion of the Greater Germanic Reich. Internationally, the use of small-scale nuclear warheads and biological weapons alarmed many government, such as the government of the United States of America and President Robert MacNamara.
On May 29, 1974, the Battle of Moscow began, and after weeks of brutal warfare which included brutal hand-to-hand combat, brutal street fighting and the killing of all German civilians in the city, the German garrisons in Moscow finally surrendered to the Russian Black Army on June 26, 1974. All the men of the German garrisons were executed immediately after their surrender, and the Russian Black Army paraded triumphantly through the ruins of the city. Some months later, the Battle of Brauchistadt began on September 15, 1974. The battle ended on December 22, 1974, after a brutal three month-long siege and battle that including all the same brutal fighting and atrocities of the Battle of Moscow, including the immediate execution of the men of the surrendered German garrisons. The next day, the Russian Black Army paraded triumphantly through the newly-rechristened city of Petrograd. By the end of the war, many of the important cities of Moskowien were under Russian occupation. On February 28, 1975, the last German armies in RK Moskowien surrendered to the Russian Black Army, with many officers fleeing westward or commuting suicide to avoid the wrath of the Black Army, with Reichskommissar Walther Wenck committing suicide by gunshot wound one day before the surrender. On the same day as the aforementioned surrender, Glavkoverkh Yazov declaring the annexation and re-incorporation of Muscovy into the Russian National Reclamation Government and announced that the capital would be moved from Omsk back to Moscow by the end of the year. With the conquest of Muscovy, the Russian Black Army begin the invasions of RK Kaukasus, RK Ukraine and RK Ostland, which also saw the use of small nuclear warheads and biological weapons against German soldiers and civilians. By the end of 1975, all of the German Caucasus was under the control of the Russian Black Army, and the invasion of the German Crimea had begun.
As German refuges fled westward from the eastern German colonies and the vengeful armies of the "Russian Black State" and as the Russian Black Army advanced further into Ukraine and Ostland, the German government of Hans Spiedel decided to consider drastic action before the Black Armies of Russia could reach German soil; the use of Germany's nuclear arsenal against Russia. However, this plan was shelved, as the German Wehrmacht began to win several victories in the first months of 1976, leading to a stalemate along the frontlines. Nevertheless, this respite for the Greater German Reich was only temporary, with the men of the German Wehrmacht becoming increasingly demoralized in the face of both Russian Black Army attacks and partisan attacks from behind the frontlines. In June, 1976, Crimea fell the Russian Black Army, Minsk fell on October 10, 1976 and Kiev fell after a months-long battle on on December 20, 1976. On February 21, 1977, the German armies and the government of RK Ostland surrendered to the Russian Black Army, with Reichskommissar Franz Walter Stahlecker being killed by Lithuanian partisans and with the with the Byelorussians, Lithuanians, Latvians and Estonians greeting the Russian armies as liberators. The Russian Black Army then began their invasion of Eastern Prussia and Germany proper and the Reichsprotektorat of Poland. On April 30, 1977, the German armies and the government of RK Ukraine surrendered to the Russian Black Army, with Reichskommissar Pieter Schelte Heerema being killed by Russian soldiers and with the Ukrainians greeting the Russian armies as liberators. The Russian Black Army then continued their invasion of the Reichsprotektorat of Poland, which finally surrendered to the Russian Black Army on August 31, 1977, with Riechsprotektor Albert Forster being killed during the Battle of Warsaw and with the Poles greeting the Russian armies as liberators.
With the Russian armies on the borders of Germany, the government of of Hans Spiedel finally decided in was time to go through with the use of nuclear bombs against the Russian Black Army. On September 24, 1977, the Luftwaffe dropped three atomic bombs on the Russian Black Army positions outside of Lwow, Kaunas, Minsk and Kiev, the first atomic bombings since the Japanese atomic bombing of Pearl Harbor. With the German nuclear attacks against the Russian armies, Dimitry Yazov condemned the German government and Hans Spiedel, as did most of the rest of the world, with Yazov promising that retribution would come to the German nation before the end of the war. Unbeknownst to the rest of the world, the Russian National Reclamation Government had been continually working on its nuclear weapons program, with functioning atomic bombs, similar to the one dropped on Pearl Harbor, almost being complete.
The aforementioned atomic bombings proved a major setback to the Russian advances, with a long stalemate occurring along the German border. Finally, at the start of 1978, the Russian military completed its first atomic bombs. On April 20, 1978, a MiG plane of the Russian Black Air Force dropped a 20 kilaton atomic bomb on Germania, killing most of the German government, including Hans Spiedel, and the Wehrmacht high command. Later that day, similar bombs were dropped over Königsberg, Hamburg, Bremmen and Nuremburg. With that, the German armies collapsed in the face of renewed Russian advanced, with more nuclear warheads and biological weapons being used against both the German armies that fought to the death and the German armies that retreated in the face of the Russian onslaught. In Germany, the nation was left without any leadership, with Generalleutnant Heinz-Georg Lemm, the former Reichskommissar of Norway, trying to keep the peace in the area around the ruins of Germania and claiming to be the new leader of Germany, with numerous other generals around the country claiming to be the true leader of Germany and setting up their own warlord states. The Second German Civil War had begun, and an even worse state of chaos and destruction had come to Germany.
As the German nation was collapsing, the Russian Black Army continued to advance into Germany, occupying East Prussia and much of the rest of Eastern Germany, as well as Bohemia and Moravia. On June 6, 1978, Heinz-Georg Lemm offered a ceasefire to the Russian government in Omsk, which Yazov flatly refused, stating that he would not stop the war until the German nation was as destroyed by the Russian armies as the German armies had destroyed Russia in the Great Patriotic War. Shortly thereafter, on June 8, the government of the Russian National Reclamaiton Government gave an ultimatum to the government of the Kingdom of Romania, demanding the handover of Romanian Ukraine to RNRG or else a state of war would exist between the two nations. On June 16, the Romanian government agreed to the demands of the "Russian Black State", not wanting to see such destruction wrought upon Romania, a former ally of Germany. On June 20, the Russian government gave a similar ultimatum giving to the government of the Hungarian State over the annexation of region of Carpathia-Ruthenia, with the Hungarian government agreeing to the demands of the Russian ultimatum on June 25, not wanting to see such destruction wrought upon Hungary, another former ally of Germany.
On September 20, 1978, after months of fighting the fanatical remnants of the German Wehrmacht, the Russian Black Army, equipped with hazmat suits, entered the bombed out ruins of Germania and destroyed any symbols of Nazism still existent in the city and killed any civilians unfortunate to survive the atomic bombing and be stuck in the city. With that, many within Russia felt that revenge had finally been achieved against the hated Greater German Reich. Needless to say, the international reaction to the Great Trial, with the use of nuclear and biological weapons, was one of universally condemnation, with such condemnation coming from US President McNamara, Japanese PM Tagaki, Italian Prime Minister Aldo Moro, Indian Prime Minister Gulzarilal Nanda, and many others.
In spite of all the carnage and destruction, all of this was still enough for Glavkoverkh Yazov, who wanted even more destruction to be brought upon the German nation and people. With a stalemate along the frontlines between the Russian Black Army the remnants of the Wehrmacht, many in the Russian Black League, even as fanatical as they had been, were becoming tired of the war, as they felt that the final revenge against Germany had already been achieved with the atomic bombings and the capture of Germania. Still, Yazov wanted to continue on, but this would not come to pass. On the morning of November 8, 1978, the day of Glavkoverkh Yazov's 54th birthday, the supreme commander of the Russian Black State died suddenly of a heart attack in his residence in Omsk, with many hypothesizing that he was poisoned by one of his rivals in the Black League. With that, his designated successor Yuri Ivanovich Drozdov became the new Glavkoverkh of the Russian National Reclamation Government. Shortly thereafter, Glavkoverkh Drozdov purged all of his more fanatical rivals in the Russian Black League and requested a ceasefire from Heinz-Georg Lemm, the de-facto leader of what was left of the German government. The final peace treaty was signed in Tarnopol on December 30, 1978, with Lemm's government recognizing the conquest of the German Reich former Eastern colonies, as well as all Polish territory annexed into Germany in 1939, Bohemia and Moravia, and some of East Prussia, with the Russians agreeing to let the Germans keep Königsberg and most of the Baltic Coast.
After the signing of the Treaty of Tarnopol, with the Second German Civil War becoming a humanitarian crisis, the OFN led by the United States of America under President McNamara launched a military intervention in Germany, a war which ended in 1981 with the establishment of an OFN Mandate in Germany, with the Free Federal Republic of Germany being established under the guidance of the OFN in 1985.
With that, the rest as they say, is history.
