Portugal... In the Broken World...

Post by CptBritish »

I decided that I'd do a Role Playing AAR I found the ones about Victoria and west Pennsylvania to be interesting this is about my recent Military Victory as Portugal... Btw I can't remember the Speech off by Heart but its what the story says about Portugal in the France Scenario...

Chapter 1: Our Place in a Broken World...

'That was a nice speech Mr President'

'With all the country behind you, we will have no problem Revitialising our Country'

This was just what I wanted no longer would they look apon my country and just think of Football and Holidays, I would turn Portugal back into a Military power, I knew this would be a Hard task under my Forebares the Military had been Misused and left to rot...

Bradley Allen a British Ex-Patriot was my Military Adviser he had served in the, the second Iraq War in which he won the Victoria Cross for gallant Actions in Battle. He had also been a trusted, If somewhat of a loosed Cannoned friend since he moved to Portugal...

When I asked about the accual state of our armed forces I was Horrified at the level in which they had been mistreated a couple of Battlions of Old German Tanks and some American Tanks that had been made in so many places in the world it could no longer be called American, Some Light Infantry Battlions and a couple of low grade Mech Infantry plus some Artillary.

"We have no Tank building Facilities?" I Gasped.

"Your Predisessor thought that we would never be in an Armed Conflict in his lifetime and thought it was a waste of time to get designs for any"

"What are we like for Airpower." I Moaned in Hope.

"We have One Squadron of F-16s and Some Alpha Jet fighter Bombers plus a Squadron of Patrol Jets and a Transport plane"

"Damn his short sightedness. Get me the designs of a tank Asap we will need some sort of tank if we are to survive in this Broken World, And get me the Trade Minister."

"What about our Airpower"

"I'm sure we can get the Designs for some decent AA but the Tank is Top Priority"

With that he left...

Five minutes later my Trade minister arrived...

"I don't want to know the Exact details, i'm too busy but I want the country self-Reliant in all the resources that are possible I want to be importing as little as possible from our nieghbours."

I look out of window wondering if my small country can make it in a now hostile world...

End of Chapter 1...

Just because the Japanese happened to build one near multiple fault lines doesn't make them any more dangerous than they were before the Earthquake.

Chapter 2: The Beginning of Crusade...

Four Months have passed since Mr Shepherd sent his Trade Minister to make My Country a Economic Power and it has Brought Dividends. Marseille has been invaded by Paris and a Brutal civil war has been fought with little ground been taken on either side all the while Portugal has been making friends with Madrid and Barcelona and although no Formal Alliance has been anounced Portugal has a full transit treaty and Free Trade agreements with both of them, But Madrid and Barcelona look ready for War any Day now. But The President has other plans and cares not for Spanish Civil War and is about to play off Portugese Hatred of the Parisian attack on Marseilles...

"Captain. Tell the General to Move our forces to the Southern Parisian Border we will show these Warmongers that their kind had no place in this world"

"Yes Sir"

"Mr President, Your Public address is ready."

"Free People of Portugal during my time in Office our country has shown more economic growth than ever. We have a Excellant Health Service, Crime is the lowest in Europe, and our Teachers are wanted by every country in the World..."

"In less than a year we have gained all this and you have supported me, I thank you for this, But I need your Support once more, As you will all know the Parisians have Invaded the territory of Marseille, Warmongering has no place in this World the people of Portugal, The People of Europe are sick of wars, we have had more than our fair share of them, But i'll get to the point"...

"Our Intelligence has uncovered a plot to bring down our country, They are jealous of our growth because they have had little since the world fragmented, We have also found that they will be willing to use Nuclear missles against us, Even after the Warning the World Market has gave them..."

"Support me in this Crusade to bring Peace back to Europe..."


"Support me and I can grarentee the Protection of our Citizens..."

"I ask this of you people of Portugal"

A silence blankets the area, Only to be Broken by Cheering and Jubilation...

"You have won the Peoples Support Mr President, Why do you look like your about to die" Laughed Bradley

"Give me a Picture of the Eifell Tower with our Flag flying high upon it, Then i'll be happy old friend"

"Oh Yes Bradley... Can you tell the General to Begin Operation Hard Justice and hurry please the Parisian spies will have seen my Address..."

"Of Course"

Upon the Order he left, To give an order that would pit South Western Europe into Total war...

Because shortly after his speech Madrid invaded Barcelonan Territory.

What this would do to the region was underesitmated at the time...

Chapter 3: Emergence of a Demon...

After just another week Portugese Forces had pushed Parisian forces out of Aquitaine. The Barcelona/Madrid war on the other hand was not as quick Barcelona had managed to push Madrid to their capital on one front but had lost ground on others. That war look alot like the Paris/Marseille war...

"Mr President Aquitaine is ours..."

"What are our Loses..."

"Surprising Minimal."

"Excellant. Inform me on future developments"

Even though the President had gambled using 60 year old tanks and out fitting them with modern weapons, his gamble had paid off, the AMXs were doing ok to be fair but it was the light Infantry and Mech that were winning the war for Portugal until the President got hold of a new toy...

"Bradley come in" I Welcomed

"Sir I have got something that will put a smile on your face..."

"Enough with the Sir Bradley, we're friends, Now what do you have?"

Bradley then slammed a file on the desk with Leclerc MBT Mk1 printed in albet purposely large letters...

"Is this what I think it is" I said astonished

"Yes Chris, This is the plans for the French Main Battle Tank and I thought i'd get something else seeing as though I was at their embassy"

He throws his second file on the desk labeled Nuclear Power Plant...

"This should end any future power woes"

"How did you get these? The French are not exactly to most co-operative during trade..."

"They saw how easy we had pushed Paris forces back and to be honest they looked afraid they tried to look the part by sending a counter-offer but I lower it to half of what they asked and they accepted..."

"Great. Get these plans to the Factories ASAP I want 12 Battlions by Christmas."

"Ok, will do Chris."

Just then the Telephone rings...

"Mr President, Your war with Paris looks like it will go well..."

"Who is this why would you call it my war?"

"Please Mr President, I know your not stupid and niether am I! Your using this war to increase the power of you country, We the World Market are watching your Region in Particular as we never thought you would make it this far in the World as it is now. Just be warned you may have swayed your countrymen to go to war but not all of the World Market Agrees that you puny country should even be in the new world, me on the other hand I see things differently but should you shun our... 'Friendship' I can just as easily bring your country to its knees by cutting off all the 'Black Gold' coming into your country, Oh and I hear your going to be needing more Urainium... One more thing we can stop if you mess with us... Goodbye Mr President...

It was the most one sided phone call Chris Shepherd had ever had but he felt cold for a minute and just stared at the floor, Just then...

"Chris, I've told the Factory Managers to start production and have faxed them all the designs our R&D teams have also finished and have given me the plans for the Mobile Patriot Missle system... Whats up you look like you've seen a ghost..."

"The World Market have just contacted me..."

"Bad News?"

"Kind of their getting to the Threatening stage they are planning to stop imports of Petrol and Gas should get in the way of their 'Plans'"

"Hmmmm nothing we can do really Chris just hope we don't get in their way or piss them off..."

"I guess your right..."

The President was shocked he thought he could rule a miniture Empire without worry, he had never spoken to the World Market personally but now knew the people he was relying on to keep his country afloat were playing games with the Regions and wondered what they would try to do with him...

Chapter 4: The Fall of Paris and of a Hero...

Its now Five Months since the start of the War with Paris Portugese Soldiers, now with their newish Frence tanks have pushed Parisian Forces back and encircled and trapped them in Paris...

The Emergence of a New World Power is about to happen...

"Sir our Army have trapped Parisian Forces in their Capital... The General is on the line Sir, he says they sent a request for surrender to the Commander of the Parisian forces but it was turned down... What do you wish him to do?"

He laughes to himself for a second "Ahem"

"They had their chance, level the Area then send in our Mech Infantry and Armoured Battlions let the Parisians see our new 'Possessions"

"Ok Sir"

The Battle for Paris would be one that would be in the History books for years to come, it was a bloody battle one that has not been seen since the 1940s but the Paris Defenders were no match for the well equiped, well trained and high moraled Portugese forces After just five days it was over...

"Sir Paris is Ours"

"Get me my Helicopter, I want to go to Paris"

"But sir you'll need a Air Escort!"

"We have Interceptors don't we?"

"No sir they were lost in the battle for Aquitaine..."

"AND NOBODY TOLD ME!!!!!"

"Sorry Sir it was in the Report"

"Really?"

"Yes Sir I wrote it myself"

"Hmmm. Ok What about those AH-64D Attack Choppers we bought"

"They need fueling but they should be ready by the time you get to your Helicopter"

The President rushed to his Helicopter and flew to Paris ready to address his new, Hostile lands...

"People of Portugese France you will no doubt feel hostile toward me and our Armed Forces but we have brought peace to these lands and I promise the same Freedoms and Prosparity to French as I do Portugese people. But should this promise be shunned and their is hint of rebellion I will give the order to put it down with full force..."

"SIR WATCH OUT!!!"

A Sniper on a Near by rooftop takes a shot at the Portugese President and hits him in the Chest...

The Last things he hears before he blacks out are Gun shots and Screams...

End of Chapter 4...

"Barcelona! Why did they attack?"

"Nobody knows Sir but we think they were scared of how fast we were defeating the Madridian Forces..."

"Great Get me out of this Hospital and where I belong..."

"Ok Nurse get this man his clothes..."

The President was desperate for Revenge, He craved it like a Baby Craves Milk and he was about to get it...
