Personal Log – Lt Wang Xiu Ying

Decapitation

Our recent action in repelling a Combined Army advance into our territory received high acclaim with the high command and as a result our division was bolstered with a heavily armoured Guija unit to allow us to participate in more direct operations and we were reassigned to Harry’s Bar to assist in the push to secure that vital forward base. The region was familiar to the veterans of the division who had participated in our earlier actions on Novyy Bangkok.

We had received word that a section of the Panocianian Neoterran Capitaline Army squadron were escorting a target of high value through one of our controlled sectors and were tasked to eliminate the target as well as the leadership structure of the PanO force.

Our Guilang detachment made first contact with the enemy and was able to eliminate the Shasvastii known as Aida Swanson, we were unable to confirm the kill as post engagement recon was unable to find a body. The Shasvastii involvement with the Panocianians has been reported to my superiors who I am informed will raise a protest with the 0-12.

The Guija pilot advanced his armoured dreadnought up our right flank eliminating the target as well as several enemy assailants before taking up a defencive position. The remaining enemy troops had castled themselves within a two story machine shop. We pinned them down and repulsed their attempts to breakout while we secured our own civilian non-combatant and withdrew to wait for their move, our key objective complete.
