Background
Summary of operations
March 12 Raid
The initial action of Broken Chains occurred in the early morning hours of March 12 2022. Infiltration units, general marine cohorts, and local specialists of the Royal Marine Corps departed West Seneca aboard the amphibious assault ship HMCMS Southern Kingdom for the western coast of Varshan adjacent to West Seneca. Infiltration teams landed ahead of the main forces throughout the region in order to secure a beachhead, after which time they advanced far inland to make contact with the local underground slave movement. Following the establishment of contact, intelligence and supplies were exchanged by the Royal Marine Corps. Infiltration units regrouped five miles inland and were joined by two cohorts of marines outside the city of Dasta-Garaz, in the outskirts of which was a major slave trade camp. At 3 AM on March 12, Royal Marine Corps forces assaulted the camp and defeated the guards there, freeing nearly 500 slaves. The Marines successfully extricated themselves and the slaves to the coast over the next three hours, where landing craft awaited them. Six marines were killed and twelve wounded during the raid, and 432 slaves were freed and removed to West Seneca. Many of the slaves were of Occidental origin and were captured during the Invasion of Cetsencalia.
