SierraJuliet -> 6 July 1942 Diplomatic Exchange (2/19/2016 9:40:53 PM)

The Japanese Government is livid. The Emperor is perturbed. The Soviets have dared to risk war via unrestricted and undeclared submarine warfare within the confines of the Home Islands.

Even though there is no direct embassy links between Japan and Soviet Russia ways can still be found to telegraph a dire warning to the Kremlin.


From Tokyo

The continual reconnaissance of Hailar is to cease immediately.

Once again Japan has suffered at the hands of Soviet naval forces conducting an undeclared war on Japanese merchant shipping within the confines of Japanese territorial waters. A clumsy attempt to mine the harbour of Wakkanai has been foiled. Once again a Soviet submarine has launched torpedoes against a Japanese merchant vessel. Japanese merchant shipping is not unprotected in the Home Islands. The Imperial Japanese Navy executed a swift retaliation upon the foolhardy commander of this submarine. There are no survivors to repatriate to Rodina.

Your Navy has sown the seeds. Utter no word of surprise when the rising sun flies over the ruin of Vladivostok.

Message ends.



Moscow to Tokyo

Our submarine was outside of Japan's 3 mile limit. That said it wasn't in your territorial waters, rather it was on a routine patrol in international waters. The CCP respects a 3 mile territorial limit as international conventions require. We also maintain the right to free navigation in international waters. Our submarine did not carry mines, therefor it would be impossible for it to lay any. Your escorts acted in an aggressive manner and our submarine responded in kind. All of this occurred in international waters.

Reconnaissance flights over Hailar will continue unabated so long as the IJA sees fit to maintain a massive troop concentration there.

Make no threats concerning Vladivostok. Think back to 1939 and the sound defeats the Red Army administered to the IJA. Nothing has changed and the Rodina will not suffer threats.

Our forces will continue to patrol international waters, keep an eye on aggressive buildups of hostile forces and whatever else is deemed essential to the defense of the Rodina. If that means war then so be it.

As soon as you captured New Delhi you released the "Lions" so to speak the Spitfires are in that package ...

If your opponent has any imagination I might propose that you have over expanded and you might ride high for another
three months or so .. but after that you might find it difficult to find a reasonable defensive line .. building this line will be interesting ..

Many thanks Crackaces. Emergency reinforcement was the only thing I could think up on this one. I knew that I had unleashed the lion so to speak but hadn't figured on dealing with such a fine fighter so soon. Guess Mr Tojo is going to have to hold the line in the air as best he can. Todd is basically penned up for the time being in Karachi with the bulk of his forces and I never seriously expected to break into that bastion. Those spitfires are going to give me a move a long.
