"BREAKING NEWS: With the surrender of the Final Cartel forces the Nigerian Government has declared official victory in the Second Reach Cartel War. The Government has come out calling this a "brilliant" victory by the Nigerian Armed Forces and has announced that all captured leaders will be put on trial for treason and their illegal businesses. Other IA nations have officially congratulated Nigeria on their victory. Meanwhile the Kamerunian Government has denounced this calling this "an illegitimate victory for the illegitimate state"."

----------

With reinforcements pouring into Reach from Murkastar and Vesta the Nigerian High Command would begin to plan to use them and would reorganize their commanders. One of the actions taken would be moving the general who failed the Fifth and Sixth Battles of Vaja to Noio, far away from any problems. The Nigerian High Command would prepare a plan to quickly win the war, which would be codenamed "Operation Trident Strike". This would call for a three-pronged offensive to crush Cartel Forces once and for all. The First attack would be planned to come from the Manassas area where the frontline is long and fortified but current intelligence projections show the Cartels unable to properly defend against such a huge attack. The Second attack would be planned for the Quezon Area, with plans to finally put an end to the Quagmire of urban warfare that Nigeria and the Cartels have been suck in, the plan would call for the least amount of troops to move into this plan due to supply issues, but those who move in have been predicted to be able to end the attack. The Final attack would be a direct attack on Cartel leadership, cutting the head off the snake, this attack would call for an orbital bombardment followed by Nigerian Troops landing to capture everything left.

With a plan and a goal, Nigerian forces would begin to prepare to execute the plan. The first plan would be attacking Vaja the Seventh time. With actually competent leadership and a plan for the battle unrelated to Trident Strike, but critical to its success the Nigerians would hope to finally capture the town for good. First a bombing run would be done on the town killing many soldiers and bombing supply lines. Next would come an arterially barrage, and a Motorized strike doing hit-and-run kills, before the main Infantry assault. The Nigerians would slash, burn, and kill any cartel forces in Vaja, finally securing the town, hopefully for good. Nigerian forces would then fortify the town expecting a counterattack. Cartel forces would attempt to organize a counterattack however their forces would not have enough strength and would not attack Nigerian positions. Nigerian troops would also reinforce positions in Quezon for the offensive and would plan an attack to allow Nigeria a Strategic advantage. After many options were considered, Nigerian forces would decide to take out the two cartel sniper nests. The Nigerians would lay suppressing fire onto the forward sniping areas while Nigerian forces would storm the lower buildings. As soon as the doors were broken down the Nigerian squads would face fire from Robots, their armor enough to take cover and return fire. Nigerian Squads would call for reinforcements as they began to really slowly take out Robots. Nigerian forces would reinforce the forces pinned down after an hour of inconclusive fighting with the Nigerians being able to take out the Robots. The Nigerians would then begin to storm the lightly, if at all, defended floors of the building until getting to the sniper's nest. Most snipers wouldn't even get to react before a bullet entered their skull and the buildings were secured for Nigeria. The Nigerian government would also find out about Cosmocratic Support due to CMU Azans being the robots sent to the Cartels, the Nigerian government would not make a formal announcement on it but would delay the start of Operation Trident Strike to prepare to deal with Cosmocratic lend-lease.

However, Cosmocratic Aid or not no delaying the inevitable, this war must end. Nigerian positions would be readied, and the Nigerian Space Fleet would warp into the area. Immanently Orbital Bombardments would commence on their targets, preparing the region for Nigerian landings. They would take out many important positions leading the way towards Nigerian Landings. Meanwhile Nigerian forces would begin a general offensive around the Manassas Area and Hegemonic Tanks would lead Nigerian forces through the streets of Quezon. It was defeat or be defeated for both sides, win or lose.

Nigerian forces would begin their attack around Manassas. Quickly the Nigerians would overwhelm the Cartel forces with their general attack with Tanks and Mechanized forces allowing the Nigerians to gain many spearheads, where they would meet up in multiple spots, causing many encirclements, and even more surrendering Cartel forces, hoping for a light sentence. Meanwhile the Infantry of Nigeria would follow to clear up those who didn't want to surrender. Careful planning would lead to massive success with those forces with not overran trying a desperate last stand against the columns of Nigerian tanks and mechanized however no defense would be able to hold back the tide of Nigerian Victory. Soon the Greater Manassas area would be secured, and Nigerian forces would begin to attack towards Quezon to link up with forces in that city.

As the attack in Manassas begun Xykres Class Tanks and Roa Class Armored Carriers would begin taking Nigerian Troops across the city in a full assault. Nigerian forces would utilize Tank Desant tactics where Infantry would ride on Tanks or Armored Carriers and quickly dismount to clear a building or series of buildings. Nigerian forces would use grenades to blast through walls or doors to quickly enter the building. From there the Nigerian forces would quickly move through the buildings to kill any hostiles, if there were civilians in the building the Nigerians would attempt to minimize their deaths though if they attacked Nigerian forces they were treated as hostiles and swiftly killed. Some Squads would indiscriminately kill Civilians for one reason or another no matter what which would be frowned upon. The Tanks would also serve their own purpose being able to clear the formations in the roads and sometimes also serving as supporting fire. These tactics would give the Nigerians an advantage and many buildings would fall to Nigerian forces. Cartel forces would be unable to respond to this, however they would be able to snipe out the Infantry on the Tanks, causing losses however this could be countered by the Tanks simply firing their guns. This would lead to Nigerian forces capturing large amounts of Quezon effectively getting full operational control, with only small suburbs still in Cartel hands.

Meanwhile as offensives started in Manassas and Quezon Nigerian Robot Panzers would land around the supposed leadership area in three spots called "Point A, Point B, and Point C". All landings would be successful due to the heavy orbital bombardment. Nigerian forces would quickly link up with each other and would advance on three Positions, Position Alpha, Position Beta, and Position Omega. Alpha Position would be suspected a command post with military info and the Headquarters of the Main Cartel force. Beta Position would be suspected to be where Cartel leaders were meeting. Omega Position would be the city of Vadkar, an important civilian target and also the supposed homes of some of the Cartel leaders. The Nigerian forces would begin to advance towards their targets. Team A would meet heavy resistance has they pushed towards Position Alpha but would continue pushing on slaughtering the weak but huge cartel force attempting to stop them. Team B would see little resistance pushing towards Position Beta however satellites would detect a large force at Position Beta itself perhaps confirming Nigerian intelligence reports. Team C would begin to push to Position Omega while a small military force would attempt to stop the team the main resistance would be seen from civilians with near-military grade weaponry. As all 3 teams advanced, they would see more and more resistance. Team B would reach their position of Beta first and would begin operations to surround it. As the surrounding operations begun a full assault would be seen, with the Robot Panzers moving in carefully but diligently. A large number of soldiers would be present and some high-ranking military officers for the Cartels. This was it, the deciding battle. The Nigerians would charge the cartel lines, and would break them, only for another line to form, and another Nigerian charge. The second time however the entire Position was encircled, and the charge would come from all sides and the Cartel forces would break with everyone being captured and Team B would report their success. Shortly after the second Charge of Team B, Team A would reach Position Alpha and would see a surpassingly weak position with only a few top-tier guards defending the area. Nigerian forces would simply go around them and often encircle a few each time before reaching the leadership and simply holding them at gunpoint to surrender themselves. And finally, Team C would be the last to reach their position of Omega and would begin to prepare for Urban combat. However as they entered Vadkar the town would surrender without a single bullet firing.

Infact many Nigerian forces would face it as the next stage of Operation Trident Strike was beginning to take effect, the much less planned second phase many forces would hear of news. Surrender. The War was over. Nigeria had won! Cartel leadership under hostage were forced to surrender at gunpoint. Many said yes as what other option did, they have? In their eyes Nigeria had subjugated their homeland and they had just announced they were here to stay, once and for all. Many Cartel soldiers away from the frontlines however would not accept surrender starting a low intensity guerilla war, however such a war would be short lived. Nigeria would quickly establish a Military Tribunal to put many of the cartel leaders on trial for treason and leadership of their Illegal Businesses. War was over, now it's time to rebuild.

Finally, this plotline is finished, hope it was pretty good. Also procrastinated on this but who doesn't lol. Don't worry about the foreshadowing (there is none, trust).

The Moral Imperative
Archduchess Ophelia and prominent Yazakh Author, the great great great grandson of the disgraced Leon Tolstoye...Everst Tolstoye-Verakkis would release a rather complex 1,200 page philosophical book titled "The Moral Imperative". The book would be divided into three sections each one arguing for a moral approach to governance and expansion.

Section I.
Section 1 would focus on the basis of morality in an individual, pointing to the fact that a moral individual was always a happy and successful person, while an a-moral or immoral person was usually happy only for a short while before dying miserably.

Section II.
Section 2. would focus on the virtues of applying morality to leadership, stating that in leadership where morals where above power then there was a happier and prosperous reign.

Section III
Section 3. would focus on the virtues of applying morality to a society, citing Equestrian and Ebbotian society as two forms of moral and quasi-moral societies which have been successful in their endeavours. The 3rd section would delve into applying morality into expansion and imperialism, advocating for a more unitary method of expansion, which seeks to include nations and races, not destroy them.

----
The book would become wildly popular in Equestria, reaching publication levels not seen since "The Little Blue Book" by President Eusibus. The book would end up becoming mandatory curriculum and reading within the Equestrian Client kingdom of Yazakhastan, and would be one of the first books written by a Yazakh in Equestria to be granted the coveted Princess Twilight National Literary Award, one of the oldest and most prestigious literary awards established in the 1100s by then Empress Twilight Sparkle.

The book would be distributed via natural means by the Equestrian Trade Guild who would work to make it available in book stores across the Hegemony and other nations.
