Joshish Invasion of Minted Island

The Joshish Invasion of the Minted Island is a response to Keith Tranty's attack beginning on the 14th of December, 2072, but they sought to execute it well, unlike the previous battle in Jiberia. One of the first plan to the operation was a small coup in Minted Island, as Joshinstreet armed violent rebels and criminals to uprise and divert attention from them, which caused more people joining in on the rebels due to Keith Tranty's horrific ways. After the Mintish Coup went underway, Joshinstreet sent out troops to make a crude landing in the port of Kentom, located around 60km from the capital. The marines quickly took over the port and captured the Mintish soldiers. The marines met up with one of the coup leaders and told them vital information about a Mintish Division coming their way, unknown of the Joshish Marines. After the marines made sure the landing was safe soon more of the army came, along with some tanks, APCs, air support and a Joshish Battleship. As the Mintish Division came along through the fields, they were quickly ambushed by Joshish Soldiers. A shootout ensued which resulted in a horrible toll for the Mintish Soldiers, being surrounded by tanks and soldiers, they lacked a supply line and with barely any cover, most of them were captured or killed which resulted in over 12,000 deaths. Keith Tranty soon knew about this, and decided to mobilize troops against the Joshish divisions located on their homeland. Despite having one of the strongest militaries in the world, a lot of Mintish soldiers had lacked equipment. Keith had a lot of unethical ways of war, including strategies from the Great War, which only held them in a stalemate for longer. Many disasters had happened during this such as an incident in Roshi where a COD Zeppelin Blimp was shot down, and had more casualties than one of the worst blimp disaster ever, the USS Akron disaster. A total of 92 out of 94 crewmembers were killed and a small part of Roshi was set on fire, causing another 23 civilian casualties. Joshinstreet kept going at Minted Islands, battle after battle they seemed to have been winning most of them, they took heavy casualties in some battles but that lacked compared to the unethical ways of war that Keith had in mind. The fighting in Minted Islands raged on, as the Joshinstreet held firm in Minted Islands, holding multiple towns as the coup kept on going.

After months and months of Mintish troops throwing themselves at Joshinstreet troops, it seemed that they were exhausted, the Joshish troops began to push up a slight bit, now only 25km from the capital of Roshi, with more parties rising up in Minted Islands, it didn't seem good for Keith Tranty and his government. Joshinstreetians continued to ambush Mintish soldiers, and even had to fight against anarchist and fascist parties that wanted total power. As Joshinstreet inched closer and closer to Roshi, Minted Island done one hard push, and took a heavy toll on Joshish soldiers, but little did Minted Island know, they were going to have bigger problems. On the 6th of November, 2073. Minted Islands was finally at the brink of collapse. Multiple factions, parties, governments, provisional governments all over the entire country had erupted into a civil war. This was the beginning of the Mintish Civil War, as Joshinstreet didn't pull out of Minted Island because they were already occupying some of the land, some parties lacked tech, but had bigger numbers. Joshinstreet had state of the art equipment in Minted Island, but they didn't want to risk sending even more troops into the Island as it was practically on fire. Keith Tranty and his government were included in this civil war, as they fought for power with their provisional government. Joshinstreet was still in Minted Island, fighting off the current factions and parties located around the Island.
