== Campaign ==
After the [[Republic of Russia]]'s entery into the [[Eastern War]], the [[RSFSR]] considered them distracted enough to get some land out of.

==== '''Early Advance''' ====
As the war began the [[RSFSR|Red Army]] quickly advanced towards the P176, also called the Vyatka Highway. Luckily for the [[Republic of Russia|Republic]] however, he already had a decently sized army nearby, as he was planning forcefully integrating [[Udmurtia]], which thus now got postponed. Since he also openly admited to this, it caused [[Udmurtia]] to quickly join the Uralic Entente for protection, an alliance between [[Tatarstan]] and [[Chuvashia]].

==== '''Counter-Offensive''' ====
With the [[Republic of Russia]] quickly mobilizing he managed to take a stand at the Vyatka Highway, successfully defending both Syktyvkar and Kirov. Following this, he began diverting his industry to build up a better road network in the region in order to improve his supply. One of the roads connecting running between Chelyabinsk, Yekaterinburg, Tyumen and to Perm, Glazov and Kirov. Another one from the capital of Omsk, through Serov, Berezniki and to Syktyvkar. There was also a road connecting Berezniki and Perm, and one road running from Glazov to the current frontline.

==== '''The Long Grind''' ====
During this road building the [[Republic of Russia]] was able to muster a slow advance along the frontline. The fact that the [[Republic of Russia]] was settling for a war of attrition instead of a dynamic war put the [[RSFSR]] in a tremendous long term disadvantage, showcasing clearly that the [[Republic of Russia]] is one to learn from his mistakes. The [[RSFSR]] had initially commited schoarched earth tactics imediately upon the [[Republic of Russia]]'s counter push, however he soon had to improve his own road system in order for his line to not fall apart. This grind would keep slowing down, with [[RSFSR]] at one point mentioning it would take the [[Republic of Russia|RR]] 23 whole years to defeat him completely, nevertheless, the [[Republic of Russia]] did not seem very faced by this and he didn't agree on a truce until the [[RSFSR]] brought up the fact that keeping the attention on him would mean leaving all of western Russia in the hands of the [[5th Reich (AFOE: Collapse)|Fifth Reich]].
