The Age of the 21st Century Magazine

“I didn't think so, instructor, but I ended up in China. ”

“Yes, that's how it happened. ”

Suppliers and Hope exit the hangar and watch the AN124 heading to the Circuit Hall.

A giant transporter hung from a yellow towing car will come up into the sky with a horse-drawn carriage.

The weather doesn't look so good.

The sky is dark and blurry, as if snow were pouring out.

Somehow, I don't think this battle is going to be easy.

There are no official announcements, but the Chinese have seen tremendous damage so far.

But the Chinese shouldn't be weak.

Although Chinese military equipment is a little too much, it is still similar to the Korean armoured forces.

Then perhaps it is precisely that the monsters, not the Chinese, are abnormally strong.

That will be a very intense and difficult battle this time.

The Supplier checks each floating supply checklist on the pad.

The Supplier opens his mouth as Hope stares side by side.

“As you know, the most problematic part of this wave is the cold.

You know, northeast three stars is a downhill 20-degree neighborhood.

The northern part of China in winter will be incredibly cold. ”

“I see. Are the Supplier Monster Hunter Equipment and Heating Ready? ”

“Yes, once the camper reinforced the special insulation in case of an East Wave accident,

Duvets and sleeping bags have also been specially prepared for winter. ”

“Well done.”

He nodded with a smile filled with hope.

The Supplier seems to be preparing very carefully this time because there is a precedent in Kazakhstan.

JiHoon walks in front of the Cycle Chamber while the support team is getting ready to take a free break and have a warm cocoa tea.

“Hope, the Divoices have also left Italy."

“Yes, I'll be there by midnight tomorrow. ”

“Probably, by the way, I'm a little nervous this time, but the Chinese are never weak.

But it's a military power. ”

“That's right. You did it in Colombia, though.

You must have been hit by a strange monster.

Considering that a dozen U.S. military fighters were shot down by one of those flying monsters, that's worth it. ”

“Yes, I do. Still, it wouldn't be a monstrosity to cut off the ground troops. ”

JiHoon also spoke of monsters more often than usual, as if secretly worried.

China.

It's close, but it's a strange place because I've never been there.

The aircraft is being reloaded from the yard and the MATVs that were laid down for aircraft durability.

Keeping heavy loads on the aircraft for long periods of time causes the landing gear and wheels to be loaded for longer periods of time, resulting in shorter life.

So I emptied the load and placed it in the cycle after Defcon 2 was released.

Now I'm reloading the equipment I left behind.

“Again...”

Hope only earnestly wished for a safe end to the operation without the victims.

In the Pentagon, meetings are being held on the subject of Chinese waves.

“Information Commander, how much damage is the Chinese army doing right now? ”

“According to the scouts of the stealth aircraft deployed in the Far East,

Approximately two Mechanized Division troops have been identified as defeated. ”

The Chief of Staff of the Unified Armed Forces replied to a question from the Chief of Intelligence.

“Did you do that much damage?

That's a lot more than we figured out a few days ago. ”

“Yes.

If the damage is more cumulative, there will be a situation where we will have to deploy to the collective forces in the northern Kyung-gu district. ”

“First of all, the weakening of the Chinese forces in the Far East will be largely achieved. ”

“It's fortunate for us to have a Chinese deterrence policy.

Excessive weakening is also a concern in the House. “

The deputy's voice is heard on the intercom during the meeting.

“Commander, I just received an emergency reconnaissance report from Intel Post in the Far East.

Some of the monsters are said to be speeding past Hamgyeongbuk-do. ”

According to a sudden report by the Deputy Intelligence Command, the members of the Consolidated Armed Forces began to sulk.

North Korean movement following the defeat of Chinese troops. Nothing is easy.

“Alert U.S. Pacific Command immediately and send an urgent message to the U.S. Armed Forces Command."

“Very well, Commander."

In a sudden North Korean crisis, the U.S. military began to move quickly.

“Commander, we're all set. ”

Hope nodded at the words of the flight commander in a heavy air jumper.

“Very well. Let's start with Globe Master No. 1. ”

“Got it.”

Wheeeeeeeeee!

The trap door is closed. Transporters slowly exit onto the runway.

Monster Hunters who will finally enter operations in China.

It's all the first big wave.

Wheeeeeeeeee!

The first Globe Master with a contemporary fighter takes off from the airport and the second transporter takes off.

Constantly flying transporters.

The runway's cement churrowi passes by the hopeless transporter.

Although it is more durable than asphalt, it doesn't adapt every time it flies.

“I am contacting from the Air Force Operations.

Monster Hunter's former transporter stands by above the West Coast. ”

“What else is going on? ”

Hope feels uneasy.

I don't know what's going on this time.

Striring ~

Communication incoming via emergency line.

“This is General Ma, Commander of Hope. Depcon 2 has been announced at 21: 05. ”

“Is it North Korea?”

“Yes.”

“Okay, so should we stay here and wait? ”

“It seems that the situation in North Korea is more urgent than in China.

I think you should land back at the airport and stand by. ”

I still don't have a good feeling about North Korea, but it looks like Defcon 2 has been activated again.

I don't know if we should keep flying over the West Coast like this.

The war should not start, but it is reluctant to continue to wait in the turbulent transporter.

Besides, the C17s don't even heat up. Everyone is wearing thick fur upside down.

“Ah... what else is going on? ”

“Commander, this is the airport security team.

Develop a defense system? ”

“Yes, MTHEL and all anti-aircraft defence systems will be reactivated. ”

“Got it.”

As soon as the call ended, the ground team removed the power truck and laser launcher from the hangar at Buryaburia MTHEL and began installation work.

MTHEL is a monster that can be deployed in 3 minutes, but requires four large trailers to merge.

It will take 20 minutes to get into actual operation.

Yejin and Aran in Seoul are worried again.

“You must have taken good refuge, didn't you? ”

I look at hope as if I'm worried about glass.

“Teacher, what do you do? Do I have to get off? ”

“Mm-hmm.”

The glass should be dropped off at the airport once.

We need to avoid a girl shooting a coiled gun against someone.

Moreover, armed groups with horse-drawn horses are also not armed against soldiers.

The 40-million Bophos Cannon launcher is rather deadly against infantry.

The armament must also be replaced.

“Yes, Yuri, I have to get off at the airport. Air Team, land back at the airport. ”

“Very well, Commander."

Transporters who had risen and stood by again lowered their altitude towards Muan Airport.

Then I hear radio again. This time, it is the voice of the Minister of National Defence instead of General Ma.

“Yes, Secretary of Defense. What's going on? ”

“... the Corks Pistol has now been issued to all forces. ”

Kwung!

The shock seems to stop the heart.

Depcon 1.

All out war with South and North Korea.

Something never happened.

“All out war?”

“North Korea's Pyongyang Defense Command has now completely collapsed.

And some of China's 39-strong troops are preparing to cross the North Korean border through the western border of the Abrok River. ”

“So the North Korean command has completely collapsed? ”

“No, it's not. One of the senior officials who stopped last time is still alive.

We have requested emergency assistance from the Korean army through our military channels. ”

“Yes? What does that mean? Why would North Korea ask us for help? ”

North Korea is a party to the ceasefire with South Korea and a militarily hostile country.

Things are getting a little awkward.

I've got Depcon 1, but it's a sudden North Korean request for backup.

“If the North Korean regime continues to annihilate you and the military,

China is very concerned about the takeover of the North Korean regime.

So even to prevent the regime from collapsing immediately, we decided to support Pyongyang militarily. ”

When I hear the explanation, I understand.

When the regime suddenly collapsed, it was blocked by the ceasefire and North Korea became Chinese territory while the Korean army was lagging behind.

First of all, I want to make a temporary first aid so that I can not leave North Korea alone.

I don't know what will happen next.

“So what do we do? ”

“You'll need to join the Armored Brigade waiting at Muan Airport to defend Pyongyang. ”

“What Korean army is defending Pyongyang? You know what else I'm talking about? ”

“The North Korean military is now handing over their wireless communication channels and cryptography to the Korean military.

They're afraid that the regime will collapse like this. ”

“Umm... I see.

Then, even if we move on, there's no risk of being hit by North Korean missiles or anti-aircraft. ”

“.. at the moment.

I don't know about monsters. "

“Okay, I'll get ready. ”

“Good luck then. ”

The connection with the Minister of National Defence has been severed.

The plan has changed.

It is an operation in Pyongyang, not China.

It's unplanned, but I feel strangely rather than strangely scared.

I can't believe I'm going to a place I've never been before.

“Air Team”

“Yes, sir."

“Immediately elevate your altitude and fly towards Pyongyang. ”

“Pyongyang?”

“Over the four ceasefire lines, the North Korean side receives control and drops to the southern edge of the Pyongyang. ”

“... Very well. Commander."

The transporters, who were lowering their altitudes, raised their altitudes and headed north towards the rider.

That's how the first Monster Hunter operation in North Korea began.
