Operation Dancing Harlequin

Operation Dancing Harlequin, (Heartlandish: Operation Tanzender Harlekin) was the name of the Samsonite Nationalist Party's planned invasion of Tezina Oblast in the Slavic Union which began on June 10th in conjunction with the Battle of Norus. The Invasion consisted almost wholely of mechanised infantry and saw very swift success in the Oblast's flatter eastern territories. Within three weeks, the whole of the Oblast had been secured save for the region's capital city which was blockaded and placed under consistent air raids by the Nationalist Luftwaffe. After another month of bombardment, the local government surrendered and Nationalist forces began entrenching along the borders of Slohul and Mangate while preparing for the next push into Translavia.
