Qilian Incident
Abardean expeditionaries near Sizzle began mining operations in the Qilian Mountains, which the Sizzlean populace opposed leading to largescale protests at the mining sites, leading to 100 of said protestors dying in a landslide. While initially only detaining disruptive protestors, Abard begins firing on the protestors, leading to Sizzle sending soldiers into Abard proper in response. Following this, Abard's forces in Qilian launched a series of attacks against Sizzle Proper, only further antagonizing sizzle.
Two-Front War
Sizzlean forces descended upon the Abardean capital of Capetown, though due to Abard's mass-conscription of all apart from women and children while threatening execution of deserters they were quickly outnumbered. Sizzle began utilising guerilla tactics to defeat their enemy by destroying Capetown's supply lines to starve them out, which was largely unsuccessful. Yetian Volunteers were quick to go in and support Sizzle.
Abardean and Sizzlean forces engage in Xining, with Abard outnumbering Sizzle. Sizzle used shock tactics in order to force a stalemate, leading to Abard withdrawing form the area eastwards. Sizzlean forces, now bolstered with more soldiers, manage to successfully occupy Capetown, leading to Abard beginning a desperate counter-offensive in which certain rural regions and Sizzle Island were occupied by their forces after failing to seize Beijing in this offensive, with the battle of Sizzle Island seeing the death of Sizzle's king. The disorganization caused by this leads to Abard briefly capturing back Capetown after suffering heavy casualties, though Sizzlean superior tactics lead to the city being lost again shortly afterwards. Sizzle managed to capture the king of Abard in this battle, leading to Abard capitulating and falling under Sizzlean control, establishing Sizzlean Abard.
