| outcomes1 =Phase 1: Yunnan is turned into a puppet state of the [[Republic of China]], before it is reintegrated in the early 1970s
Phase 2: China is balkanised into various weakened puppet states, preventing another uprising to repeat itself.
| outcomes2 = [[Manchuria]], [[Mengjiang]], [[Guangdong]] and all other Chinese warlords are absorbed into a re-established [[Republic of China]], with democratic elections transferred to a civilian government and the [[Kuomintang]] returning to its original form as the ruling party (High Legitimacy)
Line 113 ⟶ 116:
While governor of Xinan, [[Lu Han]] was away from his office on vacation, his cousin and former governor of Yunnan [[Long Yun]] launched a coup against him and gathered the men needed to do so, taking control of the province and leading the NPA. The rapid military buildup to liberate China from what Long Yun saw as [[Empire of Japan|Japanese]] puppets caused significant concern to the [[Republic of China|republican government]] in Nanjing, who sent the NPA an ultimatum, demanding that the province stand down or there will be war.
Ultimately, this ultimatum would be rejected, kickstarting the Western Insurrection. Due to the extreme manpower inequality between the two belligerents, an AI-controlled NPA would usually capitulate within a few months, with neither side garnering enough support to gain any allies. However, a player controlling either the [[Republic of China|Republic]] or [[National Protection Army|NPA]] could change that, either forcing a quicker victory if playing Nanjing, or prompting a [[Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere|Co-Prosperity Sphere]] Intervention if playing Long Yun and pushing all the way into Nanjing, capitulating the republic.
In the end, the consequences of victory from either side can vary in scale, but with this high-intensity extreme drawn out conflict leading to casualties never seen since the likes of the [[World War II|Second World War]], the landscape of the Chinese political situation, the borders of East Asia, the superpower status of the [[Empire of Japan|Japanese Empire]] and ultimately the geopolitical landscape of the world itself in the midst of the [[Cold War]] can all be turned on its head.
Line 120 ⟶ 123:
The National Protection Army had already been planning for a Western Insurrection. However, they had no actual leader to rally around. Now with Long Yun accepting the role of the leader of the NPA, they could begin the plannings.
Long Yun's NPA began to garner the extensive support from the rebels of the NRA and the CCP, and he would be supported by Jiang Zemin, a radical communist, and remnants of the KMT that lingered in the Burma Road, led by Sun-Li Jen and Li Mi.
Led by the motivation of reuniting China against the Japanese imperialists, Long Yun will lead this ragtag team to recover China, in the 2nd Northern Expedition.
== Mechanic ==
As part of the Mechanic for the Great Asian War, Legitimacy and Morale is important for either side to push, bringing in allies from the various Chinese warlords during both phases during the conflict.
Additionally, managing the liberated lands for the NPA is essential to recruit, recover Production Units, and increase morale and legitimacy.
