War
Initial Blitz
As the continuation of the war was a surprize attack, the Republic of Russia quickly pushed to the Urals in the east while in the west they recaptured Syktyvkar and pushed vack the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic to the uninhabited wastelands. Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, impressed by how the Republic had managed to outsmart him, decided to make a small counter-offensive on the central front, north of the wastelands and south of the Pechora River. While this counter-offensive was going on the Republic of Russia continued his advance in the north, eventually meeting up with him a bit east of the river where the front would get stalemated.
Reused Tactics
Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic was by this point too exhausted after his two years of fighting to pull off any more advances, thus being the first of the two to genuinely want peace. RR, however, thought himself capable of one-upping his opponent one more time. For this reason the Republic of Russia would launch a new offensive through the wasteland, in an attempt to separate Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic's armies from Kotlas, effectively rendering the whole of the Red Army encircled. A plan that, though genius on paper, was in practice just a reused version of Operation Turnaround in the year prior. The Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, having forseen this tactic, had preemptively already stationed some troops ready to counter the offensive, and additionally, also encircle it. After the encirlcement of March 2077, the Republic of Russia agreed to a ceasefire along the current frontline.
Effects
Due to the 2nd Union War, the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic had established itself as a major Russian power, almost on par with the Republic of Russia and the Union of Russia in terms of military capabilities. This would subsequently effect the Republic of Russia's approach to him considerably, who previosuly hadn't really paid attention to him at all. The Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic would involve itself in another war against the Republic of Russia in the following decade, (see the Third Union War), and would also clash with the Union of Russia during the 3rd Russian Revolution.
