Chapter 465: Season 2 Book 19 New China’s Participation in War – 2-1 Assassination

January 01, 2024, 04:10 (France time: December 31st, 2023, 20:10)

20 kilometers outside of Limousin in Haute Vienne, France (in the secret house of the National Intelligence Service [DCRI]).

After arriving in Paris on the 24th, Shin Baiqing received protection from the French National Central Intelligence Agency (DCRI) and continued his meeting on the plasma core technology with Jackie Lee.

For the past week, under the guidance of Jackie Lee, he has had meetings with government representatives from various European countries. However, the countries that he was keen on making a deal with were France, which had offered him protection, and the United Kingdom, which had offered him the most amount of money.

The day before the large transaction that would last him for the rest of his life was to take place, Shin Baiqing, was lying down comfortably on the sofa in the living room and watching TV. He was enjoying himself as if he had the whole world in his hands.

Shin Baiqing had been promised complete identity and national protection until death as well as US$200 million from France and US$500 million from the UK. He was so excited that he didn’t know if he could get a good night’s sleep.

<Woah, 700 million dollars… That’s an amount that I’ve never even dreamed of in my lifetime.>

Shin Baiqing, who was just happy thinking about the deal tomorrow, muttered to himself.

In the secret house where Shin Baiqing was currently staying, there were about 30 DCRI agents standing guard. In addition, about 10 MI6 special agents were dispatched by the British government.

Shin Baiqing, who was treated like a state guest and protected by both countries in this way, was favorably acclaimed when he was traveling around France for a few days.

“Hey, Shin Baiqing! Tomorrow’s deal is set for 3 p.m. I’ll let you know the location tomorrow morning. Get some rest.”

Jackie Lee, who was Europe’s top weapon broker, approached Shin Baiqing, who was lying on the couch drinking whiskey and said with a sinister smile.

“3 p.m.? We’re proceeding with the deal in broad daylight?”

“What does that matter? It’s not like I’m doing business with a criminal organization. I’m working with a Thales company authorized by the French government.

“Well, it surely is.”

Thales is a French defense company that has developed various weapon systems based on IT such as equipment and software related to electronic communications such as radar technology.

The French government intended to research cutting-edge plasma technology with the Thales Defense Company, a private company, rather than a national research institute. Since the plasma core technology was stolen and was obtained informally at the government level as an under-the-table transaction, it was determined that such inter-country problems or legal litigation may arise from Korea in the future. For those reasons, they were prepared in advance.

“Then, I’ll be back tomorrow morning. Last night of 2023, I hope you have a good time.”

“Okay. See you tomorrow!”

As Jackie Lee left, Shin Baiqing relaxed and closed his eyes and thought of the heavenly life that lay ahead for him, and a small smile crossed his lips.

<I should buy a luxury boat right now and rest for about a year.>

At that time, outside the secret room, several mysterious shadows were moving secretly through the darkness.

<Tu-woong! Tu-woong! Tu-woong! Tu-woong!>

Whenever a blunt gunshot rang from a pistol with a silencer, the agents of the National Central Intelligence Agency (DCRI), who were in charge of security outside the secret house, fell.

“This is the Black One! The four targets on the entrance are clear! I’m going inside with the Black Two.”

“This is the Black Three! I’m done suppressing the back door! I’ll go straight with Black four to the 2nd floor.”

“This is Black Zero! Everyone be careful. The agents here are talented agents from France and the United Kingdom.”

“This is the Black One! Copy that!”

“This is Black Two! Copy that!”

“This is the Black Three! Copy that!”

“This is Black Four! Copy that!”

“This is the Black Five! Copy that!”

The Black Mamba, an unlicensed assassination organization of the National Intelligence Service of the Republic of Korea, arrived in Paris on the 29th. As soon as they did, they immediately launched an operation to assassinate Shin Baiqing.

The Black Team agents, who wore black protective suits and black masks that covered their faces, moved so swiftly that it was hard to believe that they were humans, and entered the inside of the house.

First, Agents Black One and Two, who got rid of the four agents who were guarding at the front door, shot the heads of six other security agents who stood guard inside the front door, killing them instantly. As the Black Agents were in TCS mode, the special agents who were known to move like lightning, could not resist much and were thrown on the floor in the living room.

Meanwhile, Agents Black Three and Four, who infiltrated through the back door, entered the second floor directly using the Skyrail and killed the four agents who were resting while chatting in the living room.

Agent Black Five climbed a tall tree 100 meters away from the secret house, aimed the sniper rifle, and supported the Black Agents.

The Black Agents, who had performed their missions without much trouble so far, started looking for Shin Baiqing on the first and second floors.

The two-story secret inner house was a 150-acre wide building equipped with various facilities.

“This is the Black One! Five targets cleared in the living room on the first floor! I’m going to search the first floor.”

“This is the Black Three! Five targets cleared on the second-floor living room side! I’ll search the second floor with Black Four.”

Just like that, the Black agents each followed the given route to destroy the target and reported the progress to the Black Zero team leader.

<Tu-woong! Tu-woong! Tu-woong!>

The door opened in front of Black One as he carefully walked down the hallway, revealing two strong looking agents. Without thinking, Agent Black One threw himself forward and hit the back of one of the agent’s heads! He then rolled over and shot the center of the forehead of the other agent.

Agent Black One dragged the two agents whom he had just killed into the room from which they came out. He then changed the magazine on his gun and continued his search of Shin Baiqing.

As the black agents shot and killed the DCRI agents on the first and second floors while they had been searching for Shin Baiqing for about 10 minutes, an Asian man who was wearing only a bathrobe was seen through a slightly open door.

The only oriental men here are Shin Baiqing and Jackie Lee, but Jackie Lee had been shot in the head earlier and was dead.

About 10 minutes ago, after saying goodbye to Shin Baiqing, Jackie Lee and his personal bodyguards got into the car and, as soon as they came out of the secret house, less than 100 meters away, they were shot and killed by Agent Black Five. Needless to say, the three bodyguards who were with them, were shot in their heads.

“This is the Black Three! Target found!”

“This is Black Zero! Are you sure?”

“This is the Black Three! I’ll confirm after I kill him! Black four cover me.”

“This is Black Four! Copy that!”

“This is Black Zero! Copy that!”

Shin Baiqing entered the drawing-room, holding a whiskey glass in one hand, humming an unknown song, and was choosing a DVD in front of the DVD cabinet next to the large TV.

Agent Black Four watched the hallway in front of the door leading into the drawing-room, while Agent Black Three carefully opened the door and crept in.

<B*tch! Are you trying to watch movies comfortably? Too bad, it’s time to die.>

When Agent Black Three was about to shout abuse at him and thrust a pistol to the back of his head, the door on the other side opened and men with optical devices on their heads barged in and began firing mercilessly.

<Tatang! Tatata tattatang! Taang! Tatatang!>

Agent Black Three flew to the back of the sofa instantaneously and shot at the feet of the men that were visible under the sofa.

<Tu-woong! Tu-woong! Tu-woong! Tu-woong!>

The men screamed and fell when the bullets hit their ankles. They were MI6 special agents from England.

Like world-famous intelligence agents, they were equipped with optical devices to enable them to see those in TCS mode.

Meanwhile, Shin Baiqing, who was lying on the floor, when the sound of the sudden gunshots rang out, quickly recognized the current situation as a former Black Tiger captain and threw himself toward the door the MI6 agents came in from.

<Tatatang! Tatatang! Tatatang! Tatata Tang!>

The MI6 agents, who continued to rain gunshots on the sofa that Agent Black Three was hiding behind was almost torn apart, supported their fallen colleague and hid in the room where Shin Baiqing had escaped to.

“This is Black Zero! Black three, what’s going on? Were you discovered?”

“This is the Black Three! They had equipment that disabled TCS mode! There are about seven of them!”

“This is Black Zero! Proceed to plan B. The rest of the agents support Black Three.”

“This is the Black One! Copy that!”

“This is Black Two! Copy that!”

“This is Black Four! Copy that!”

B2 bunker, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, Namu (Korea Armed Forces Joint Command and Control Center Situation Room)

Shin Sung-yong, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who returned from the Blue House after receiving approval from the president for unlimited retaliatory strikes, had a very serious expression on his face after receiving several reports.

The first was the damage count of the 8th Mechanized Infantry Division (Cheongseong). Analyzing what had been reported so far, it was confirmed that the two subordinate squadrons were destroyed, and the division headquarters were also ruined. In other words, the last appearance of Major General Oh Jong-gil, the division commander was at the time of video communication.

Secondly, it was reported that the plasma bombs of the Shin-Guk army fell on the command headquarters of the 25th Light Armored Infantry Division (Biryong) and the 75th Mechanized Vigilance Division (Torchlight), in addition to the 8th Mechanized Infantry Division (Cheongseong), which caused them to lose at least 50 percent of its power.

These two reports alone filled him with excitement and anger, but there was one more thing. It was reported that a plasma bomb was dropped on the border city of Rajin (Pingdu) in Xuzhou, resulting in at least 50,000 casualties.

Rajin (Pingdu) was the city where the headquarters of the 9th Mechanized Infantry Division (White Horse) belonging to the 1st Corps were stationed. In other words, to attack the headquarters of the 9th Mechanized Infantry Division (White Horse), they bombarded civilian cities.

As a result, the Republic of Korea engaged in a large-scale all-out war in three places: the Northwestern Front with Russia, the Western Front, and the Southwestern Front with New China.

The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Shin Sung-yong, who had barely suppressed the rising anger, first reviewed and had a meeting with the newly established plan.

“Since we do not know how many plasma bombs the New China Army currently has, we have established a counter plan by estimating it to be around 50.”

Lieutenant General Yang Min-chun, head of the operation headquarters, appeared in front of the podium and opened the door. As less than two hours had passed since the start of the war, the meeting on the response plan ended briefly with only the main points being discussed.

“Great! Proceed according to the plan! However, I would like to add one more thing.”

“Yes, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, please tell me.”

Chairman Shin Sung-yong of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, raised his hand, got up from his seat and looked at the staff sitting in their seats at the long meeting table and said.

“The president has granted us the right to unrestricted retaliatory strikes. So I mean, instead of going with the current plan, we want to launch an indiscriminate attack on all fronts in New China immediately.”

“Chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff! When you say indiscriminate attack, how much do you mean…”

Even before Lieutenant General Yang Min-chun could finish asking his question, Shin Sung-yong, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, answered.

“All the power of the 5th Army.”

When the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff referred to the five Armed Forces, he was talking about the Army, Navy, Air Force, Aerospace Force, and Strategic Missile Force, which means all the power of the Republic of Korea Armed Forces.

“Hey, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is upset. That’s right. If you are going to attack, you surely have to put all forces on it.”

While everyone was surprised, only Yoon Gi-yoon, deputy chief of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, nodded and expressed his approval.

“But why are you all so surprised? Lieutenant General Yang will immediately establish a targeted plan for the border area and immediately contact the 5th Army and instruct them to prepare available forces.”

“Ah! All right.”

“Currently, the damage to the troops defending the main base is serious, so we should strike before they cross the border.”

“Yes, I will do it right away..”
