Editing 2nd Franco-Prussian War (section)

==== '''Back and Forth''' ====
After Operation Hangman had been executed, the [[France|French State]] issued the recruitment of many new troops and reinforcements from his allies both in Europe and in Africa. While the encirclement in the Rhineland was being closed, [[France]] managed to achieve a minor push, not enough to free it but enough to make a small encirclement of his own in the Saarland. After this the [[4th Reich|German]] armies would return to the main front and push the Rationalist Order back into [[France]] propper. This offensive was however eventually repelled as the new reinforcements were ready, and the Rationalist Order subsequently launched a new offensive, taking Brussels and reaching the gates of Frankfurt yet again.
