21st Century Goguryeo

December 18th, 2023, 17:30 (Russian Time: 18:30)

55 kilometers west of Javitsk City, Amurskaya, Russia (The 7th Mobile corps)

Half an hour ago, a dozen CF/A-25P black squadrons from the 201st Fighter Squadron and eight CB-91P goshawk bombers scrambled to the area where the 35th Army was deployed across the Bureya River and stirred up the heat, causing about 300 corps artillery units to fire at once.

At the time of the initial bombing, the first air force of the Russian Aerospace Force responded to the emergency launch of 36 SU-30MK flanker fighters, but 31 aircraft were shot down by the 12 CF/A-25P black squadrons that entered the intercept procedure after the bombing and only five left the battlefield and survived.

In the eastern part of Russia, where various surface-to-air missiles were deployed, the Republic of Korea had the rights over the air space, as long as it was not a large number of missiles being deployed.

The power of the 180 C-9A1 Lightning self-propelled gun was great, but the 130-millimeter C-137 200-millimeter Fire Dragon that uses cluster rockets and the K271 MRLS Sky thunder using 300-millimeter plasma cluster bombs were truly amazing.

There was no specific reason why the Ministry of National Defense of the Republic of Korea was once called the Open country.

After the tremendous firepower lasted for about 20 minutes, the 128th Machine Gun Artillery Division also fired artillery fire in the formation of the 35th Army. However, the counterattack was not strong enough as some artillery forces were destroyed during the first aerial bombardment. In particular, when the 12-millimeter laser Vulcan beam of the C-30 Biho A2 armored vehicle was organized in each armored division and the 8-millimeter laser Vulcan beam of the numerous C-3A1 Baekho tanks combined, the number of enemy shells falling into the 7th Mobile Corps terrain was noticeably less.

Hundreds of rays of light composed a mesh as if creating a net that was so dense that a single ant could not escape.

There was no other view as breathtaking as this. A more splendid and wonderful spectacle than the fireworks festival held in Yeouido every year was unfolding in the sky above the Bureya River.

Some time passed and when the enemy artillery fire began to stop, the search tank battalion C-3A1 white tiger tanks began to move ahead through the four floating bridges installed by the engineering battalions of each division, including the engineering brigade. Then, various C-23P Hyunmoo Infantry Fighting Vehicles activated the tube-type floatation device, entered into the Bureya River at the same time and began to cross the water.

The K-23P Hyunmoo Infantry Fighting Vehicle, which can achieve a very high speed of 20 km/h even underwater by reducing water flow resistance while going down into the water was able to cross a 300-meter wide area in a very short time of one minute.

At that moment, when the vehicles began crossing the river at the four floating bridges, which were the four narrowest parts of the river, 32 FAH-91SP Peregrine Falcon attack helicopters belonging to the 17th Air Corps flew over the Bureya River and entered the air space.

Occasionally, surface-to-air missiles flew from the area of the 35th Army, but like the latest attack helicopters, they launched an immediate retaliatory attack with powerful SECM (disturbing system angle) and evasive maneuvers and supported interception with various surface-to-air missiles from the rear.

The 35th Army again fired punitive artillery fire from the reorganized artillery unit before going down.

Hundreds of shells fired at the same time, forming a huge parabola, fell frighteningly towards the 7th Mobile Corps tanks and armored vehicles crossing the border. However, when laser beams were sprayed from tanks and Biho armored vehicles waiting for their turn on the floating bridge went down into the water, a wonderful spectacle unfolded again.

In the midst of the second fireworks show in the sky, the tanks of the search tank battalions of each division, which were passing through the floating bridge first, stepped on the ground over the Bureya River one at a time, and immediately entered the front search maneuver. Even the C-23P Hyunmoo Infantry Fighting Vehicle, maneuvered the steep hills one by one. At some point, it was plastered with the 7th maneuvering army tank and armored car over the Bureya River.

From the beginning, they built temporary defensive positions in various places along the Bureya River and overcame the pouring shells and bombs, led by about 100 T-90AM tanks of the 21st Guards Tank Division, which had survived. About 90 T-14 Armata tanks belonging to the 2nd Guards Tank Regiment under the direct control of the military had just successfully crossed the border with the C-3A1 White Tiger Tank and C-23P Hyeonmoo Infantry Fighting Vehicle (APFSDS) without mercy. Stable detachable armor-piercing rounds were fired.

In addition, each armed anti-tank guided missile was not spared and was fired at once. Dozens of quadruple 9P148 Concus anti-tank guided missiles mounted on top were also fired from the BRBD-2 armored vehicle that followed the tank.

It was a tactic to destroy and cut off the forces that succeeded in going down before other forces that were involved in the early firepower joined.

However, the 7th Mobile Corps tank, which is faced by various types of tanks belonging to the 35th Army, was the strongest White Tiger tank on Earth. It was an improved C-3A1 baekho tank equipped with a 25-millimeter laser interception system, one of the active defense systems capable of intercepting 100 percent of the fourth generation anti-tank guided missiles.

Three types of Russian tanks burst into powerful flames, spewing out APFSDS (Wing Stabilized Separable Armored Shell), followed by two types of 3UBK21 'Sprinter' anti-tank missiles and 9K225 Proshnakno anti-tank missiles, spraying white smoke and penetrating through the baekho tanks.

However, from the beginning of the launch, the targeting of the White Tiger tank's powerful SECM's radio disturbance failed, and several anti-tank guided missiles lost their targets and rotated in the air, then either self-destructed or crashed into the ground and exploded. After overcoming the radio disturbance, the anti-tank-guided missiles that flew towards the Baekho tank and the nearby Hyunmoo Infantry Fighting Vehicle also exploded one after another by the 25-millimeter intercepting laser beam flying at a rapid speed.

The Russian tanks' anti-tank guided missile attack ended in vain, and the photon cannons of the white tiger tanks of a certain size spit out red particles one by one.

Hundreds of tanks from both sides closed the distance between each other and engaged in battle, while FAH-91SP Peregrine Falcon attack helicopters in charge of aerial cover tilted their nose down and fired 50-millimeter plasma-activated bombs mounted on both wings in succession.

At 100 meters above in the sky, 32 FAH-91SP Peregrine Falcon attack helicopters fired plasma-activated bombs in unison, and dozens of T-90AM tanks belonging to the 21st Guards Tank Division were engulfed in flames and stopped moving.

In response, a quadruple 23-millimeter cannon was fired from 32 ZSU-23-4 Silka self-propelled anti-aircraft armored vehicles that had survived the bombing and shelling from the rear. In addition, 15 2S6M Tonguska self-propelled anti-aircraft guns fired twin 2A38 30-millimeter cannons and 9M311 short-range surface-to-air missiles.

In order to kill each other on the ground and in the air, numerous machine gun bullets and guided missiles alternately flew, and huge explosions sounded endlessly.

However, if you look closely at the situation on the battlefield, most of the tanks and armored vehicles that were attacked occurred mostly in the 35th formation of the Russian Army. It was as if a lion from hell was holding a feast of death.

When the armored car that was hit by 50-millimeter activated charcoal exploded, the soldiers of the unloading crew, who were all set on fire escaped through the rear hatch, screamed and rolled on the snow-covered ground. Some tanks were hit by 100-millimeter photon cannons and exploded together incinerating the crew inside.

As time went by, the horrors of the war had become more intense, and the number of deaths in both countries has increased tremendously.

Meanwhile, amid fierce fighting from the front, tanks from the 26th Tank Battalion of the 60th Armored Brigade of the 20th Armored Division (decisive battle), which had made numerous achievements in the First Northeast Asian War, were submerged in the rear. The C-3A1 Baekho tank was able to dive submerged from a depth of 20 meters to 1 kilometers. The speed was only 10km/h, but the ability to submerge in the water was a big advantage. The biggest obstacle to the cavalry was that it would not be affected by the numerous rivers of Siberia.

"Oh! When are we going to cross this? It is totally like a turtle."

The catcher, Yeom Hoon-gi, uttered words of frustration and lamented at the sight of the water. He had been trained for diving on several occasions but since it was his first time in a real battle to carry out a dive in such a wide river, the frustration he felt was overwhelming.

"Hey! Don't you know that turtles are as fast as ghosts in the water?"

Commander Kim Young-joo, sergeant major, teased him as it seemed that he felt bored.

"Oh, that's what you mean, isn't it?"

"Oh, man. It is time to cross, Corporal Kim!"

"Yes, Corporal Kim Il-soo!"

"When are we going to cross?"

"It looks like there are ten meters left."

As the driver, Corporal Kim Il-soo said, Tank 712 was submerged with a slight upward tilt.

"If we go out, will we have fun fighting?"

"Yes, shouldn't we? Our battalion was almost the last to enter the Sub port."

"Ah! I've always been at the forefront, but this time in this mission, I am the last to be…Sergeant Yeom. Isn't it difficult to be ranked number 1 in the division's attack major?"

"Ah! If you look closely, Sergeant Kim also resembles former Commander Oh Young-taek. Why are you so passionate about your job?"

"Damn, did I say it once or twice? If you receive a medal for a first-class special promotion, your salary will increase, and you will be promoted faster than your age so isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"

"Ah okay!"

Again today, while the jokes were going around, the 712 Tank suddenly appeared out of the water.

After a while, at the command of the battalion commander, the 26th Tank Battalion raised its maximum speed in the open field to support the friendly units engaged in fierce battles in the front and then jumped forward.

December 18th, 2023, 17:40 (New China Time: 16:40)

Black Tiger Headquarters, City Hall District, Beijing, New China

Unlike Director Yoo Ha-yeon, Team 2 Chief Yoon Tae-jin and two team members entered the basement of the building that looked like the Black Tiger Headquarters. They had also been in TCS mode for more than an hour, so they replaced them with new spare batteries and dispersed themselves to begin a full-fledged investigation of the inside of the Black Tiger Headquarters.

As is well known, the ground of the Black Tiger Headquarters had been disguised as Beijing Capital, and most of the Black Tiger's offices use the 5th to 10th basement floors.

Accordingly, Chief Yoon Tae-jin and two team members went down to different floors, and filmed the inside of the building, and completed the interior through the SG-TAR shield glasses they were wearing.

Occasionally, in the case of a controlled area, the lock was released using the X-K02 terminal, and a strong jamming wave was used to temporarily block the CC cameras. However, if these obstacles continue to occur, the agents operating the CC cameras would notice it, so they exchanged silent communication with each other and infiltrated the access control area with minimal use.

Team 2's destination was the dedicated server room of the Black Tiger.

Team leader, Yoon Tae-jin, walked carefully so as not to have anyone hear his footsteps. Suddenly, two men appeared from the hallway that they had just broken into and Yoon Tae-jin stopped breathing momentarily and leaned against the wall.

When the two men passed in the not-so-wide hallway, they gently brushed the chest of Chief Yoon Tae-jin.

Watching the backs of the men moving away from the other side, Chief Yoon Tae-jin clenched his fists.

At this time, while circling the eighth basement floor, a voiceless communication came from Assistant Manager Jeon Ki-won who infiltrated the control area.

"Manager! I'm in front of what looks like a server room."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes, looking through the window, it must be the server room."

"Ohh! Found this sooner than expected! Can you go in?"

"That's going to be tough."

"Why?"

"About three people are guarding right inside the door of the server room."

"No, are they guarding some food to eat in the server room?"

"What should we do?"

"Did you scan and take pictures of the interior and route leading to the server room?"

"Yes, I did."

"Great! We don't know if there is another server room, so let's look for another 30 minutes and get out!"

"Yes, all right."

Chief Yoon Tae-jin, who ended the silent communication with Deputy Jeon Ki-won, operated the X-K02 terminal and tried silent communication with Manager Lee Ja-seong, who was waiting outside.

"This is Alpha Two! Please check Alpha Zero. This is Alpha Two! Can you hear me Alpha Zero?"

Chief Yoon Tae-jin was worried about Director Yoo Ha-yeon, who had gone to another place alone.
