1920 January??
The creation of the United Democratic Popular Front who possessed the loyalty of the Gendarmerie and the Jangali guerillas and the nominal loyalty of the Cossack Brigade thanks to the ambitions of a resurgent Russia, would significantly alter the balance of power within Iran. The Qajar's without these forces are a paper tiger, possessing no means to offer significant resistance as far as the leaders of the Republic would know. It has thus been decided that with two regiments of the Gendarmerie and 1,500 Jangali guerillas the UDPF would march on the capital and arrest the Qajar's and their cabinet. The cavalry in the Gendarmerie mixed regiments would allow them to rapidly advance and achieve the goals of this "coup" within a short enough timeframe. Incase the Qajar's attempted to acquire foreign aid the guerillas would cut the telegraph/telephone lines exiting Tehran so that there would be an information blackhole until the deed had been done.
Once this operation had been a success a Republic would be declared with the provisional government taking over till elections could be held.
