History
(Under Construction/Being Written)
Modus Operandi
Throughout the last century, the Golden Chrysanthemums had been changing their targets from Samura to the Kusari State Police and Naval Forces in more of a militaristic revolution. The Kiretsu squadron has separated itself from this warlike strategy and reverted back to the original tactic of suppressing Samura. Leaving the Naval Forces to exhaust themselves against the Bretonians, Kiretsu focuses itself on striking Samura whenever and wherever is can in an attempt to bankrupt the corporation, or at the very least hurt it to the point where Kishiro would surpass it politically and financially.
Kishiro, being a more liberal-thinking corporation focusing more on technological advancement than industrial processing, is largely left alone. Much of this is due to the reasoning that Kishiro, unlike Samura, may be more open-minded to the concept of woman's rights. Towards this there has been advances made towards Kishiro to use their political power to take the Chrysanthemum's case to the government diplomatically, while the Chrysanthemums themselves continue a militant revolution.
In addition to a reversion to a terrorist action against Samura, Kiretsu has also spent considerable effort and expense in stemming the flow of Artifacts into Kusari by attacking any and all Hogosha they can find. As well as attacking any Corsair ships found trying to enter Kusari or deliver Artifacts to the Hogosha. It is suspected that they do this not only to break the Hogosha's hold on the black market and thereby deprive them of their political power, but to also ingratiate themselves with the Gas Miners Guild, who were once accomplices in the Artifacts trade before being betrayed by the Hogosha.
Due to the Hogosha's traditionalist ways, control of the black market, and political power, Kiretsu has attempted to befriend the Junkers and help them in invading Hogosha's territory and compete for control of the black market. The Junkers, in addition to being liberalists, are also instrumental in the supply and distribution of Cardamine. Their entry into the Kusari black market was an attempt to further the spread of Cardamine among Kusari's younger, more liberal, population. With the younger generation addicted to Cardamine, it was suspected that they would be more easy to control, as well as provide the Outcasts and Golden Chrysanthemums with further recruits.
To further this goal, Kiretsu commissioned transports, bought from the Outcasts, to collect Cardamine directly from Malta and return them to Battleship Matsuda, their headquarters, before being distributed to Roppongi and Furyoku Station where it could be taken to other Kusari stations and planets aboard lawfully-aligned Interspace transports. After Zetsumai Keisotsu's acquisition of a Cardamine plantation on Malta, the Kiretsu made Cardamine smuggling a high priority and their deliveries increased tenfold. Because of access to their own supply of Cardamine, the smuggling offered a high amount of funding and much of Battleship Matsuda's supply was Cardamine grown on the Keisotsu Plantation. On average, the Kiretsu send two heavily-defended transport convoys to Malta and back weekly.
Due to this and other events, relations between Zetsumai, and the Kiretsu by extension, and the Outcasts strengthened. At the same time and due to many and varied reasons, the Kiretsu's relations with the Blood Dragons dropped. Though maintaining the Chrysanthemum's alliance with both, Kiretsu worked more closely with the Outcasts than the Blood Dragons.
Roughly around 812 A.S. an organization that referred to itself as the Consortium began to be seen more and more around Kusari. By the time war broke out between Kusari and Bretonia in 813 A.S., the Consortium was a well-known organization to the Golden Chrysanthemums. Utilizing Outcast fighters, bombers, and destroyers, they began making strikes against the Kusari Naval Forces. The Consortium asked, and were granted, access to Ainu Depot by the the Golden Chrysanthemum's elders. The Consortium eventually came under the influence of Zetsumai Keisotsu who used their destroyers to intercept any Kusari capital ships that attacked Kiretsu ships when out pirating.
During the last 2 years Kiretsu has been heavily active and involved with the Okinawa system. Due to political reasons and the fact that the Gas Miners Guild is in control of the system, the roles of the Kusari unlawfuls has reversed within the system. The Chrysanthemums and Blood Dragons have become semi-lawful with the Hogosha and Farmers Alliance being outlaws. Because of their agreements with the Gas Miners Guild, Kishiro, and Interspace Commerce, the three corporations running the system, the Kiretsu have waged a war against the Hogosha and Naval Forces in Okinawa, in an effort to stop both from entering the system and keep the Kusari Government from obtaining sovereignty of Okinawa away from the Gas Miners Guild.
Because of Zetsumai Keisotsu's and the Kiretsu's rapid elevation in the Chrysanthemum power structure, they have been major players in the faction's diplomatic efforts, negotiating non-aggression pacts with the Independent Miners Guild and Kishiro, as well as strengthening the relations between the outlaws in Kusari and the Bretonian Armed Forces. Kiretsu transports have been seen delivering goods captured from Samuran transports and depots to Southampton Shipyard and Interspace Commerce's Waterloo Station, often under a heavy guard of Kiretsu fighters and bombers.
Goals
- Depose the current Emperor and replace the traditionalist government. Installation a Matriarchy would be ideal, but the main focus is to get a liberal government that will provide equal rights to everyone in Kusari and no longer keep its borders closed to foreigners.
- While the destruction of military equipment is beneficial, the only realistic way to destroy the government is to take away the support of the people and the money it requires to run. Hindering the Kusari economy is of greater importance than the destruction of individual military convoys. No navy can run without money. Nor can any government.
- Continue to spread Cardamine throughout Kusari, using Roppongi and Furyoku stations as distribution centers. This not only funds us, Interspace, and the Outcasts, but can also gain us new recruits for the Chrysanthemums. The younger generation is more liberal than the one in charge. If they remain that way, and remain tied to the Cardamine we and the Outcasts supply, we can control them and use them against the government.
- Hinder Samura whenever and wherever possible. They support, and in many situations, control the government and back the Hogosha and Farmers Alliance. They are also dedicated to traditionalism, opposing any liberalism in Kusari.
- Cause as much damage to the Naval Forces as possible both to weaken the government's control and hurt the Kusari war effort against Bretonia.
- Cause as much damage to the State Police as possible to weaken their control over the citizenry. If there is no law and order, there is only anarchy, which would leave Kusari open to the Golden Chrysanthemums.
- Stop any attempt by the Corsairs to enter Kusari or deliver Artifacts to the Hogosha. The Corsairs want to establish themselves in Kusari to oppose the Outcasts, which means they will oppose us as well.
- Attack any Hogosha vessels found in order to weaken their hold on the black market, which weakens their political power. Like the Samura, they are dedicated to traditionalism. Through their control of the black market, they have ample resources to bribe government officials with, which they often do to their own advantage and our detriment.
- Keep the Farmers Alliance contained. They are not a direct threat to the Chrysanthemums, and their interdiction of foreign traders hurts the Kusari economy, making it harder for the government to continue their war with Bretonia and their actions against the Blood Dragons and Golden Chrysanthemums.
- Aid any Interspace Commerce Ships if they come under attack while in Kusari. They provide funding and material to us, which won't be possible if they cannot get into and out of Kusari safely. Further, they help with Cardamine distribution in Kusari, which relies on their good will.
- Aid the Junkers whenever and wherever possible. They provide competition against Hogosha and can help in the supply and distribution of Cardamine. They are also a black market group not under the control of Samura, and are liberalists.
- Aid the Bretonians against any common enemies of ours when in Kusari. The more damage the Bretonians can cause, the sooner this war will be over.
