In [[2941]] agents operating on behalf of Captain-General [[Samuel Marik]] convinced [[Vincente Sian-Marik]] to sign a treaty with the Free Worlds League transferring his allegiance and those of the worlds he administered to the League. In addition to being the planetary administrator of [[Kyrkbacken]], [[Ohrensen]], Suzano, [[Ventabren]] and [[Zion]], Sian-Marik was a distant relative of the Marik line; while the [[Capellan Confederation Armed Forces]] garrisons on the five worlds didn't try to resist the transfer of worlds, they did engage in widespread scorched-earth operations on each world to inflict as much damage as possible prior to the transfer. As a consequence the acquisition of the five worlds saddled the Free Worlds League with a significant and expensive rebuilding program.<ref name="HM(TFWL)p41">''House Marik (The Free Worlds League)'', p. 41, "Reign of Samuel Marik"</ref>

By the year 3000 the League government considered attacks from the [[Lyran Commonwealth]] to be more serious - or more likely - than attacks from the Confederation. As a result the Marik high command removed the bulk of the defending [['Mech]] forces from Suzano. That left Suzano open to raids from the Confederation, and when a Capellan advance group scouted Suzano later that year they found the planet to be defended by just a few light 'Mech lances and some militia infantry.<ref name="TRO:3026Rp22"/>

The Liao forces promptly launched from their [[JumpShip]] and quickly demolished the 'Mech and infantry forces defending Suzano. The victory was so easy that what had been a raid turned into a plan to occupy Suzano permanently; however, the Capellan forces had missed the presence of the [[3rd Infantry Support Company (FWLM)|3rd]] and [[5th Infantry Support Company (FWLM)|5th Infantry Support Companies]], whose commanders had realized that Suzano was a tempting target and had taken their forces into the wilderness for training. The two companies, equipped primarily with ''[[Harasser]]''-pattern hover tanks, began an insurgency against the Capellan forces using a combination of raids and precision strikes that forced the [[CCAF]] forces offworld in a little over three months.<ref name="TRO:3026Rp22"/>
