===Federal Invention=== Immediately, the USCC sent its private military force made of around 200 or so former military and police officers to deal with the most troublesome settlement of Summer's Town. In Summer's Town, workers had raided the armory and storehouse and prepared to face off with the USCC Brigade. At a point known as Twin Hills, the Brigade was stopped by a barricade stationed by a dozen armed workers. When they refused to let the unit pass, Joshua Adam's ordered his men to open fire. The USCC Brigade then marched unopposed to Summerstown, however, workers had positioned themselves deep within the field's. Adams unit was completely defeated with few survivors. This event known as the Summerstown Massacre was widely reported in newspapers and led to President Lin and the appointed governor of North Kaijan, James Mott deployed a combined force of 10,000 to deploy across Manharga Township, the center of coffee production. Mohammed Manaho who had taken control of Free Kaijan Union redistributed captured weapons to a small force of around 500 workers. The 12th Division quickly captured Summerstown with very little resistance as Manaho had fled town. Governor James Mott in a letter to President Lin as the time claimed that "The fires of brutality have been blown out, the countryside shall soon be quiet". However, the Federal position was soon assaulted by nighttime raids often stealing supplies and weapons. Unsure of the size of the assaulting force, the 12th Division waited a week for the 16th Division to arrive from Kaijan City. Manaho soon released a list of demands, stating he would rally thousands of troops if they were not met by August 1st. Included in these demands were the release of prisoners, charges leveled against the USCC and independent and collective control of all coffee farms within the Township. James Mott rejected the demands and ordered the 12th to divide there forces and take control of the 4 major USCC company towns. On August 2nd, the FKIW in association with Manahara ingenious forces began there attack on various patrols. While achieving some success, the FKIW were often outnumbered and were forced to retreat with defeated numbers.
