Decisive Action

After a several day campaign across Mississippi, with peasants and serfs taking up arms to destroy National Emergency Management Forces (NEMA) wherever they were found, it was quite clear all was lost for the NMWOs bid for overt control and martial law in Mississippi. So the Committee of Three (Dieter Thaller, Hans Stahlecker, and Harold Fabus, listed in rank in the committee) did what they did best, faded back into obscurity, staying behind the scenes. While their lapdog John Wallace of NEMA was left to take the fall.
He had no idea what to do, and so he packed a few cases full of money, and a gun, a fake passport, and jumped in his plane and flee to Uruguay, which after landing he decided was a rather poor choice, so close to the regime of Leopoldo Galtieri (related via marriage to the Stahleckers, although Hans won't have Leopoldo turnover Wallace, maybe for a distraction though?)
Argentina was a known pro-Mississippian state, as was Bolivia, Paraguay, and Chile, heck for that matter; Uruguay was pretty pro-Fabus as well. Wallace had blundered, and he finally realized it when Marines from the Mississippian embassy were allowed to go on a joint-raid with Uruguayan police, to arrest him.
He'd be shipped back to Mississippi to stand trial or whatever punishment the Czarina deemed appropriate.
NEMA was effectively dead, all the Imperial Decrees Curtis signed in the 90s giving it power, were summarily and immediately revoked by the Czarina, and any NEMA officers above the rank of colonel were ordered to be officially court martialled (Most court martial cases end with hangings, firing squads, or state permitted suicides, we let them keep their honor sometimes)
Over 2,000,000 NEMA agents had been killed or wounded or captured in just four days of fighting, mostly by peasants and loyal army units. (Most peasants are loyal)
(The earlier peasant coup where the Czar and Czarina fled, was just a hoax, only about 20,000 people, SRG dressed up as peasants and rebels, were involved, to give the Czar and excuse to crack down on domestic threats, real threats, NEMA)
Over 50,000 peasants had been killed fighting NEMA, numbers would have been much higher if not for the fact that most peasants were elite highly-trained and government equipped paramilitaries, and much of NEMA were just foreign thugs brought in to push people around. They (NEMA) were known for flying around in black helicopters and terrorizing people. However when martial law was declared, about eight hours later, not a single NEMA aircraft was in the sky, the peasants and militias had used Stingers and Sa-16s and Sa-19s, and other AAA, and even a few privately owned MiGs and F-16s, to down all NEMA craft.
Now it was up to the Czarina to decide the fate of the leadership of NEMA.
