The Army of Danjusha was a Field army of the Wardens during the Refusal War. Named after the river Danjusha in southern Scitaria, the Army took part in operations from the beginning of 1984 to the end of the conflict in 1987.
For the first year of the war, the Army of Danjusha was charged with protecting southern Scitaria from Royalist incursions from neighboring Galania, which was especially significant due to the need to maintain Moddra as a port for resupply from foreign allies. In 1985 the Army took part in the Warden Coastal Offensive intended to link up with Warden forces from Hayreniky by seizing control of the Galanian coast. In March 1985 the Army captured Kopvy, the first major Royalist city to fall to the Wardens. The Army then continued the offensive eastward and captured Vyerzhany, later crossing the Malonrana River and linking up with the Army of Thanor. With the two forces combined, they subsequently assaulted and captured Zorad in June.
In the Autumn the Army was reinforced with the 5th Guards Mechanized Division from Cacerta, becoming a multinational force. In the winter of 1985-1986 the Army advanced north and began the Battle of Durova, capturing the city in early February and prompting the withdrawal of Royalist forces from Kolnov back to the Vitmira River. In the spring of 1986 the Army took part in the Warden invasion of Galania, advancing east and threatening both Drobelad and Koziativka. After the fall of Myzova the Army pushed east and reached the banks of the Vitmira. After the winter of 1986-1987 the Army pushed across the Vitmira and captured Cuprasi before advancing towards Zildejov. The Army was present following the surrender of the Royalist forces, and disbanded after the conclusion of the fighting.
The Army of Danjusha ranks as one of the most famous formations of the Wardens, having fought from nearly the beginning of the war to witnessing its end in October 1987. The string of victories the Army achieved were significant factors in the Wardens' eventual victory, and the involvement of Cacertian forces with the Army made it one of the more well known forces during the war.
