Following a poor harvest season in the autumn of 2031-32, bread prices skyrocketed in the early winter food riots broke out. The Yanubi government turned to [[Burgundie]] for foreign aid in March of [[2023]] and was granted a large grain concession from nearby [[Bulkh]]. These grain shipments were initially rushed by starving locals and the Yanubi Gendarmerie National fired on the crowds in a number of locations killing 4 civilians and injuring 12 more across the country.

The Yanubi government turned to [[Burgundie]] for foreign aid in March of [[2023]] and was granted a large grain concession from nearby [[Bulkh]]. These grain shipments were initially rushed by starving locals and the Yanubi Gendarmerie National fired on the crowds in a number of locations killing 4 civilians and injuring 12 more across the country. [[Burgundie]] insisted that a detachment of the [[Umardi Askari]] of the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion]] be deployed to ensure the equitable and orderly distribution of the grain on March 3rd and the Yanubi government conceded. On March 4th two Platoons of the [[Umardi Askari]], and the 8th Platoon of SeaBees of the [[Navy_of_Burgundie#Grand_Eastern_Command|Grand Eastern Command]]'s Expeditionary Strike Squadron Kandahar Resolve arrived and established a base of operations just outside the capital Muqadas. On March 9th, the 3rd Independent Company of Forward Air Operators, [[Royal Air Service of Burgundie]] and a platoon of the Provost Gendarmerie of the III Division Foreign Legion arrived to support the expanding mission. The situation stabilized in late March and early April, but the populace grew agitated at the rapid escalation of Burgoignesc forces close to the capital implying that the Yanubi government was not able to manage its own affairs within the country. Following remarks released on May 15th, [[2023]] of the Great Prince of [[Burgundie]] saying "the nations of the [[Middle seas region]] wouldn't exist without [[Burgundie]]. ''Burgaudonie'' is the gateway of civilization on that continent." protesters started to gather around the base that the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion]] was operating out of. They demanded that the Legionnaires leave and that the [[Global Burgieman]] leave Yanuban and leave its affairs unimpeded. The protest expanded in the first week of June leading to tense negotiations between the Yanubi and [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] Foreign Minister. After a week of failed negotiations and multiple crowd rushes of the main gate of the base, illustrating failures in the ability of the Yanubi National Gendarmerie. | ||
Over the night of June 7th a clandestine mission was flown over the capital and a heavy anti-riot truck and a squad of the [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]]'s Mobile Gendarmerie were dropped into the base with support from the 3rd Independent Company of Forward Air Operators. When the Yanubi protesters returned on the morning of the 8th they were immediately repulsed and dispersed by the shocking show of organization and force. The rest of the week was relatively calm around the base but numerous, smaller protests occurred throughout the capital city and other regional capitals. The [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]] units were preparing to demobilize on Sunday the 13th, but Saturday morning, after a day of prayer wherein imams around the country railed against [[Burgundie]], a crowd of over 1,000 people gathered outside the base. Efforts to disperse them failed, but they were not able to approach the main gate. By noon the crowd had grown to around 2,500 people. The riot truck's water cannon was used to push the crowds back but the group continued to grow. With all eyes on the events unfolding in the quartier with the base no one noticed a small gathering of military vehicles in the rear of the parliament building. At 1304 local time the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the heads of each branch of the military and the National Gendarmerie stormed the parliament, and declared the republic dissolved. They insisted that all [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] politicians, diplomats, and military personnel leave within 72 hrs. | Over the night of June 7th a clandestine mission was flown over the capital and a heavy anti-riot truck and a squad of the [[National Gendarmerie of Burgundie]]'s Mobile Gendarmerie were dropped into the base with support from the 3rd Independent Company of Forward Air Operators.

On July 23rd the soldiers of the Junta joined the protesters to put pressure on [[Burgundie]] for a negotiated retreat. For 48 hrs the stand off continued until a Yanubi Sapper team arrived. Seeing the writing on the wall, the Legionnaires and Gendarmes requested permission to return fire if fired up on and fight their way to the coast. At 1700 local time they were given the green light if they could not hold the perimeter to fight to the coast to liaison with teams from Rapid Deployment Group 6. At 2105 the crowd was unleashed on the Legion base and the sappers took the distraction to position themselves near a side entrance they thought was now well guarded. The Legionnaires left the Gendarmes to use the riot truck to hold off the civilians surge until the Yanubi sappers had blown the back gate.

The Legionnaires left the Gendarmes to use the riot truck to hold off the civilians surge until the Yanubi sappers had blown the back gate. Using the water canon and batons the Gendarmes give enough ground to make the Yanubis feel confident. They signaled their sappers to blow the side gate at 2117. Thinking they had surprised the Burgoigniacs they were terrified when they were met by a coordinated sallying forth by the Legionnaires who gunned down the sappers and the Juntas commander who was with them. The Legionnaires called to the Navy indicating that their fight to the sea had begun. The Legionnaires swept up behind the protesters and Juntas soldiers and assaulted from the rear. | ||
=====Fight to the sea===== | |||
On July 23rd at 2117 Yanubi sappers blew open a side gate, thinking they were taking the [[Umardi Askari]] of the [[Burgoignesc Foreign Legion]] by surprise. They were counter-ambushed by the Askaris and killed. Three squads of the Askaris exited the perimeter and quietly circled around behind the Junta soldiers and protesters while another squad stayed by the side gate and fired into the air to trick the Yanubis into thinking the Sappers were still alive and engaging with the Legionnaires. The encircling action complete, the Askaris opened fire on the Junta soldiers from behind and caused a panic, dispersing the crowd. This gave the remaining Legionnaires and gendarmes time to open the main gate and exit in their armored vehicles. Askari combat engineers had mined the key infrastructure of the base and the materiel they had to leave behind. With charges set for 10 minutes the convoy called the [[Navy of Burgundie]]'s [[Navy_of_Burgundie#Grand_Eastern_Command|Grand Eastern Command]]'s Rapid Deployment Group 6 to begin the operation and to establish a beach head for their extraction. An advance survey team deemed the city's harbor to be insecure, so they were instructed to head to a beach 7 kilometers south of the city and meet up in 6 hours. | |||
The joint Legion-gendarme convoy headed deep into the city to the Burgoignesc embassy to extract the diplomatic staff. At 2127 they encountered a Yanubi roadblock which their heavy vehicles easily bashed through. The soldiers of the roadblock opened fire to no avail, but the Junta's leadership was informed and they started to see the bigger picture. All junta-loyal soldiers, gendarmes, and police were notified to delay, distract, and fire upon the convoy and to try to keep it from reaching the embassy. Junta loyalists formed make-shift detachments as they arrived in the area and started piling up cars, furniture, and tires in the streets and setting them on fire. As the Burgoigniacs pushed into the heart of the city of Muqadas they pace slowed and eventually became a crawl as they came under heavy small arms fire. The Askaris dismounted and started to work ahead of the convoy for fear of anti-materiel weapons being used to destroy their {{wpl|VBMR Griffon|Griffons and Servals}}. The Burgoignesc vehicle gunners peppered the buildings and roof lines to keep them clear and the gendarmes took up rear guard positions as the convoy plodded deeper and deeper into the city. After 45 minutes of intense fighting the first air support from the [[Navy of Burgundie]] arrived and began firing flares and strafing runs on known junta command posts and radar installations. By this point the Junta had begun using the Emergency Alert System to give commands as Burgoignesc Electronic Warfare and Jamming planes had started to degrade their ability to communicate. After an hour and 20 minutes the convoy reached the embassy but it has been besieged by a veritable army of Junta supporters and anti-Burgoignesc protesters. | |||
