Bo-Wu Submits Proposal to Ministry of Defense

After a successful IPO, The Bo-Wu Company has submitted its first major proposal as a publicly owned corporation to the Ministry of Defense. The proposal, believed to be inspired by Vanukuan designs and engineering, calls for Yingdala to research and develop a new tank, code name Crouching Tiger-001, or CT-001. CT-001's design is said to improve upon current armor used in most Yingdalan military vehicles, as well as a new weapon system set to deliver higher payloads and increased accuracy. Speed is also said to be a top feature, with chief engineer of the project Cao Yiwei exclaiming that, "a faster, more powerful tank is essential to restore Yingdala's standing in Terra. With a more modern 'cavalry,' we will be able to speed to victory in any fight."

Should Bo-Wu succeed in its endeavors, the company is expected to make a variety of proposals to improve the state of Yingdala's military technology.

Villages in Han and Shu Send Elders to the Ji Family Mansion, Demand Ji Yu Take the Dragon Throne

Contrasting with the "Miracle of Anle" talked about throughout North Yingdala, villages in the South, the heartland of traditional Yingdala and Classical Jienism, have begun to form pressure groups in the battle for Heaven's Mandate. Some of these groups, primarily from Shu and Han, recently sent a group of elders to the Ji Family Mansion in Tian'an to demand Ji Yu, patriarch of the Ji Clan, to take up the Dragon Throne.

The leader of the group of elders, a man of 87 named Fan Bo, was on his knees in front of the of the mansion kow towing and crying, "We cannot let the Sun Family reign over us! We cannot let businessmen create tyranny! My lord, please accept Heaven's will. We beg you!" The crowd shouted, "We beg you!"

So far, the Ji Clan has been silent on the matter.
