Information provided to the representatives of Greater Japan, from Ikari informants suggested deployment of State Empire Troops supporting the Jiyuan Mining Site were intending to mobilize and reinforce areas in central Novyy Bangkok. This mobilization would put the lives of Japanese citizens directly at risk due to the callous nature of elements within the greater Yu Jing party organisation who would be happy to seek retribution for actions taken durring the secession.

A sortie was organized to strike command elements directly at their muster point within the Jiyuan site, perhaps the disarray would keep the State troops focused enough on their own interests to delay plans for further expansion to the interior of the planetoid.

Ryuken 9 assets were able to sabotage artificial gravity enhancement units in the vicinity to coincide with the deployment of a Domaru Butai unit backed by Kiesotsu soldiers and Shikami specialists. These troopers paid a heavy toll for their fellow citizens but thanks to Ryuken Data tracking forward elements, the JSA were able to eliminate vital command assets whilst also securing and collapsing this portion of the site, cutting off a main artery for forward expansion and troop movement between the Jiyuan pit mines and the Japanese population of Novyy Bangkok.
