	[[Major]] [[George Hartzig]], the Hussars' battalion commander, knew that there was no way his battalion could directly challenge the Heavy Guards RCT, so he elected to shadow the Guards as they moved from their landings on the eastern coast of Tsingtao's main continent. The Guards moved westwards, into the Hevson Hills, capturing both of the Hussars' transport [[DropShip]]s in the first few days after their landings and making good time towards the planetary capital city, Tsing City. With little he could do to stop the Guards, Hartzig favored surrendering, as did most of his officers, but a number within the Hussars were violently opposed to the idea of surrendering. The disagreement erupted into open combat between elements of the Hussars in what became known as the Battle of Traitor's Grove, with nineteen Hussars [['Mech]]s being destroyed before Hartzig's faction was victorious. After the Battle, the surviving members of the Hussars negotiated an equitable surrender for both themeselves and the militia units that had survived the Guards' campaign.<ref name="4SWv2p40"/>		[[Major]] [[George Hartzig]], the Hussars' battalion commander, knew that there was no way his battalion could directly challenge the Heavy Guards RCT, so he elected to shadow the Guards as they moved from their landings on the eastern coast of Tsingtao's main continent.

VI, "Inner Sphere - [3145] Map"</ref> == Planetary History == === Fourth Succession War === Following the lull in major offensives in early [[3029]], a number of new offensives began as the [[Fourth Succession War]] entered its second year. The [[AFFS]] forces on the Capellan front did their best to rest and resupply during the lull, anticipating a return to combat operations; orders for the fifth wave of [[Operation RAT]] were received in late April, and large-scale invasions of the Capellan Confederation began again.<ref name="4SWv2p38A">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 38, "Capellan Front"</ref> Stripped of JumpShips to form a command chain for [[Operation Intruders Communion|Operation INTRUDERS COMMUNION]], few of the front-line forces within the Sarna Commonality were able to respond to the fresh wave of attacks.<ref name="4SWv2p38">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 38, "Fifth Wave"</ref> The AFFS deployed the [[Davion Heavy Guards]] [[RCT]] to capture Tsingtao, which was defended by the Second Battalion of [[Hurloc's Hussars]] and a number of poorly-equipped militia regiments.<ref name="4SWv2p40">''NAIS The Fourth Succession War Military Atlas Volume 2'', p. 40, "Tsingtao"</ref> [[Major]] [[George Hartzig]], the Hussars' battalion commander, knew that there was no way his battalion could directly challenge the Heavy Guards RCT, so he elected to shadow the Guards as they moved from their landings on the eastern coast of Tsingtao's main continent. The Guards moved westwards, into the Hevson Hills, capturing both of the Hussars' transport [[DropShip]]s in the first few days after their landings and making good time towards the planetary capital city, Tsing City. With little he could do to stop the Guards, Hartzig favored surrendering, as did most of his officers, but a number within the Hussars were violently opposed to the idea of surrendering. The disagreement erupted into open combat between elements of the Hussars in what became known as the Battle of Traitor's Grove, with nineteen Hussars [['Mech]]s being destroyed before Hartzig's faction was victorious. After the Battle, the surviving members of the Hussars negotiated an equitable surrender for both themeselves and the militia units that had survived the Guards' campaign.<ref name="4SWv2p40"/> === The Jihad === Tsingtao was one of the worlds hit during [[Duke]] [[George Hasek II|George Hasek's]] [[Operation Sovereign Justice]] in [[3068]]. Captured with little resistance by the [[59th Strike Regiment]] of the [[Illician Lancers]], as the Capellan Confederation began a counterattack [[Vong's Grenadiers]] landed on Tsingtao and established a beachhead from which General Bradley and the 59th Strike couldn't displace them. The Grenadiers then locked the Illician Lancers forces into a war of attrition. With both commands reduced to half-strength through the constant fighting, the [[AFFS]] supply lines to Tsingtao dried up, leaving the 59th with little choice but to retreat to [[Redfield]], leaving Tsingtao in Capellan hands once more.<ref name="MSUp73">''Mercenaries Supplemental Update'', p. 73, "Illician Lancers"</ref> ==Military Deployment== === 3025 === * [[Hurloc's Hussars]] (Second [[Battalion]])<ref name=HL106>''House Liao (The Capellan Confederation)'', p. 106, "Unit Deployment Table"</ref> === 3029 === * Hurloc's Hussars (Second Battalion) (until June)<ref name="4SWv2p40"/> * [[Tsingtao Militia]]<ref name="4SWv2p40"/> === 3050 === * [[36th Lyran Guards|Thirty-sixth Lyran Guards]] [[RCT]]<ref name=20YU23>''20 Year Update'', p. 23, "Federated Commonwealth Deployment Table"</ref> === 3054 === * Thirty-sixth Lyran Guards RCT<ref name=OR17>''Objective Raids'', p. 17 - "FedCom Deployment Table"</ref> ===3057=== * Thirty-sixth Lyran Guards RCT<ref name=TTP>''Legacy'' anthology - ''The Third Pillar''</ref> === 3063 === * [[Vong's Grenadiers]]<ref name=FMCC119>''Field Manual: Capellan Confederation'', p. 119, "Capellan Confederation Deployment Table"</ref> === 3079 === * Elements of the [[3rd Confederation Reserve Cavalry|Third Confederation Reserve Cavalry]]<ref>''Field Report: CCAF'', p. 11, "Confederation Reserve Cavalry Regimental Status"</ref> :- At this point in time, the 3rd Confederation Reserve Cavalry were deployed across Tsingtao, [[Ares (planet)|Ares]] and [[Capricorn III]].
