Unit Description

XXXI Corps (or the Thirty-First Corps) was one of the seventy-two Corps that made up the Star League Defense Force. Prior to the collapse of the Star League XXXI Corps consisted of 5 divisions, 2 independent regiments and an independent aero wing.[1]

History

In 2764 XXXI Corps was part of the 13th Army, assigned to District 3 of the Lyran Commonwealth Military Region. When the simmering violence and rebellion building in the Periphery erupted with the New Vandenberg Uprising and subsequent Periphery-wide uprising in 2765 XXXI Corps was deployed into into the Periphery Military Region along with the rest of the 13th Army.[1]

The conflict in the Periphery inflicted significant losses on XXXI Corps; one complete division, the 178th Jump Infantry, was destroyed along with the independent 687th Artillery Regiment. Despite these losses, XXXI Corps began the Hegemony Campaign as one of the larger Corps within the 13th Army.[1]

XXXI Corps lost almost three times as many casualties in the Hegemony Campaign as it had taken during the Periphery Uprising; two divisions, the Commonwealth Division and the 204th Jump Infantry, were completely destroyed along with the independent 10th Heavy Assault Regiment, while the 133rd Jump Infantry Division had to be disbanded as a result of heavy losses. Elements of the 133rd subsequently joined the Draconis Combine and Capellan Confederation[1]

Only the 196th Mechanized Infantry Division and the 1002nd Independent Aero Wing survived as fighting units to follow General Aleksandr Kerensky when he led the bulk of the surviving SLDF on the Exodus.[1]
