Outside Area 15 of Beichen District Industrial Complex, Tianjin, New China

Among the Foreign Intelligence Team One agents who were checking the area amid the dark red flames and smoke that rose from the thick yellow dust, team leader Park Gi-oong continued to send communication to the two managers, but there was no response.

“No response yet?”

Second Team leader Youn Tae-jin approached team leader Park Gi-oong’s car to talk to him.

“Damn it, there’s no response! And the location information is turned off!”

Because the TCS mode consumed all of the battery capacity, the X-K02 terminal, which was providing them with the location information for the two managers, was turned off.

“No way! They didn’t fail to escape, did they?”

“Don’t say anything that will bring bad luck!”

Team leader Park Gi-oong reacted angrily, followed by team leader Youn Tae-jin, who responded with a vague look.

“I just said that in case, Team leader Park!”

In fact, team leader Park Gi-oong was traumatized by an accident that occurred three years ago in China in which he had lost his direct supervisor, Ji Dong-chul. For a time after his boss’s death, he suffered greatly and even considered submitting his resignation letter.

“They won’t die like this.”

Team leader Ji Dong-chul came to his mind as he said this. As a result, he shook his head to dismiss those thoughts before attempting communication again.

However, there was no response. This was simply because communication would not work if the location information sensor had been turned off.

“That’s right. As team leader Park said, the two of them aren’t going to die like this.”

The Third Team Leader Shin Eun-ha said with a worried expression.

“Okay, let’s go back to the safe house! They’ll definitely come back if we wait there.”

Team leader Park Gi-oong tapped team leader Youn on his shoulder, and then team leader Youn Tae-jin signaled the first team agents to return.

“Team leader Youn! Take our team members! I’ll stay here and wait for the two managers.”

“Hey! That is not right. Anyway, do whatever you want. Wait here carefully and come with them later. Let’s go!”

Team leader Youn Tae-jin changed his words because he thought it was pointless to try to persuade him, and he got into the car with the team one agents and ordered them to move. As a result, the three cars took off, leaving only team leader Park Gi-oong behind.

“Team leader! Please come back with our managers!”

Assistant manager Oh Suk-jin, who came out of the window, waved his hand and shouted.

“Okay.”

With a heavy heart, team leader Park Gi-oong sat in the driver’s seat after dispatching his team agents. He waited until the next morning, but neither of the managers showed up.

30 kilometers above the southwestern tip of Seomanju Border 1 in Korea

When the Korean Air Force aircrafts entered New China’s airspace, the New China Air Force launched various fighters to intercept them, and various army groups’ air defense units fired various surface-to-air missiles against the Korean aircraft that they detected on radar.

However, more than 100 CF-21P Zhujak fighters who were assigned to escort missions annihilated the New China Air Force fighters sortied for interception like a child playing with his toys, and the surface-to-air missiles were neutralized with the upgraded powerful SECM (Radio Disturbance System).

The 12 CF/A-25P Black Zhujak fighters belonging to the 237th Fighter Squadron, 8th Fighter Wing of the Sunan Air Force Base in Bukju, which first reached the hitting point, gradually changed their composition to the triangular flight composition, while the four CBS/A-30P Blue Dragon Strategic Bombers belonging to the 15th Special Mission Air Force Base, that were flying behind them, split up and flew to the side.

Then, according to the order of the squadron commander, 80 C-PSB (Plasma Spread Bombs) fired one after another from each of the CBS/A-30P Blue Dragon strategic bombers, which have an explosive capacity of nearly 200 tons per plane. They fired 320 bombs in total, which was a massive amount.

The 320 C-PSB (Plasma Spread Bombs), which usually performs excellent performance against mechanized units, were fired and began falling on the 40th Group of the New Korean Army, which was stationed near the border, and soon produced a spectacular fireworks display.

The first explosion occurred 50 meters above the ground, and a slew of submunitions were sprayed. A massive explosion engulfed the entire 40th Army Group, and the submunitions that hit the ground resulted in a second explosion, causing fire to envelop everything on the ground, whether they were tanks or armored vehicles.

Countless pieces of debris flew in all directions, hitting all the subordinate units of the 40th Group. It was like hell. This series of explosions and flashes lasted about ten minutes.

When the four CBS/A-30P Blue Dragon strategic bombers completed their bombing missions and switched to return, the 12 CF/A-25P Black Zhujak fighters, which had been on escort missions, turned back as well.

Among them, the Acacia squadron turned in the direction of Yehinsan Mountain. Their intended target was the 11th Artillery Brigade, an artillery unit directly under the command of the 40th Army Group that fired plasma bombs at the 6th Mechanized Infantry Division (Cheongseong).

Currently, the 11th Artillery Brigade detoured to the southern tip of Changli County to support the units from the 40th Army Group that were just breaking through the border under the command of the brigade commander and were moving along the G206 road along the border.

All of the upper and lower roads were occupied by the brigade headquarters, observatory battalion, and seven artillery battalions, forming a long two-row line. Suddenly, a flash of light appeared 50 meters above them in the sky. Then, like a shower of rain, a slew of submunitions poured down on the artillery battalion in the foreground.

<Kwang! Kwang! Kwang! Kwang!>

As soon as the submunitions hit them, a second explosion swept over the artillery battalion. As a result, the artillery battalion was unable to maneuver, and the turret, as well as the entire hull, exploded as if it had been hit by an anti-tank missile. They’d turned into a hunk of scrap metal.

These explosions continued and eventually spread throughout the 11th Artillery Brigade.

A few minutes later, on the S206 road, where cracks, breaks, and large and small puddles were hollowed out, the moving vehicles could no longer be seen. Only various self-propelled guns, armored vehicles, and multi-extension vehicles that had turned into scrap metal emitting smoke appeared to be abominable.

The 11th Artillery Brigade was completely destroyed by 24 C-PSB (Plasma Spread Bombs) dropped by the Acacia squadron.

Moreover, the annihilation of the 40th army Group, which included the 11th Artillery Brigade, was only the beginning. As the Air Force devastated the entire 1,100-kilometer border, it moved the Aerospace Force’s CS-AD Zeus Strategic Interceptor Satellites 2, 3, and 8 to launch additional attacks. Furthermore, 12 CFS/A-31SP Three-toed Crow space fighter jets from Mangsan Base’s 2nd Space Fighter Wing launched attacks and erased the 27th Army Group from the map, which was sweeping behind the 40th Army Group.

While the two aerial forces attacked the border region, there were ground attacks from the Republic of Korea’s territory toward New China. It was the strategic missile force that launched over 300 Hyunmoo-2E2 tactical ballistic missiles with a range of over 5000 kilometers and basins-PIP (IRBM) with a range of 1,500 kilometers from various mobile launch vehicles and ground bases, attacking the 71st Army Group, which was stationed in the mountainous area along the borderline.

Furthermore, at sea, more than 200 Cheonryong A missiles (SLCM surface-to-surface cruise missiles) were launched from six destroyers and eight frigates of the 3rd Fleet, which were stationed 55 kilometers northeast of Pukyong (Weihai) Port. The 200 Cheonryong A missiles (SLCMs), which flew ten meters above the ground, rained down on the 66th Army Group, which had been designated as their target.

X-15 bunker in Beijing, New China

President Wang Jing-wi, who had moved to the X-15 bunker ahead of the invasion of South Korea, received reports that the 11th Artillery Brigade of the 40th Group had successfully destroyed the 6th Mechanized Infantry Division (Cheongseong), their biggest obstacle during sweeping, as well as the 25th Light Armored Infantry Division (Biryong), which was blocking the 16th Army’s sweeping road, and the 2nd Division responsible for the First, Second, and Third areas of the border had also inflicted significant damage. With those reports of the successful plasma bomb attacks on the command center of the 75th Mechanized Guard Division (Torchlight), the X-15 bunker was more than excited and festive.

President Wang Jing-wi, who was determined to attack the Korean Peninsula as well as restore Northeast Samsung, was watching the large screen in the operation room with a smile on his face.

However, this atmosphere did not last very long.

All South Korean troops were mobilized to launch a retaliatory attack two and a half hours after the start of the New China invasion. As a result, the operators in charge of communication in the operation room were receiving the damage reports from the Army Group Commands continuously.

In some units, instead of the Army Group Command, a higher-ranking officer reported the damage. It was because the whole army unit was annihilated.

President Wang Jing-wi’s face was distorted for a moment by the report of the unimaginable damage, and Defense Minister Jang Yue Fung, who was next to him, couldn’t hide his embarrassment.

“What the hell are you guys doing? Didn’t you expect Korea’s retaliatory attack? And yet, you suffer like this.”

President Wang Jing-wi directed his criticism at General Yuan Xiaoqiao, Chief of General Staff.

“I apologize. We expected and prepared, as the president stated, but the Korean military’s retaliatory attacks exceeded our expectations.”

Because South Korea was at war with Russia, General Yuan Xiaoqiao did not expect the South Korean military to launch such a large-scale retaliatory attack.

Several operators seated around the control room’s screen updated the symbols on the screen with the most recent reported information.

The symbol of the units that had been sweeping across the border until a few minutes ago quickly changed one by one to a red X symbol.

“It’s serious. Serious!”

President Wang Jing-wi became enraged as the symbols on the screen kept changing.

“Mr. President! Don’t worry. Don’t we have the plasma bomb? Even though we suffered more damage than we expected, we can still overcome it.”

Defense Minister Jang Yue Fung carefully said.

“That’s true, but the loss is too big, isn’t it? Will we be able to restore Northeast Samsung after that?”

“Currently, all the defense companies are switching to a wartime position and producing various weapons. Besides, our population is much more than Korea, isn’t it? Aren’t there nearly three million reserve forces under the Emergency Action Mobilization Decree? We’ll be able to make up for the power loss in no time.”

After hearing Defense Minister Jang Yue Fung’s plausible words, President Wang Jing-wi calmed down and asked.

“Chief of Staff! How many plasma bombs do we have left currently?”

“Yes, Mr. President! A total of six were used for the first attack. We have four left.”

“Not enough! Not enough! You should contact the General Equipment Department and tell them to mass-produce it faster!”

However, the head of the equipment department, Pudi Huqiao, the only one who could fulfill President Wang Jing-wi’s wish, was no longer around.

The head of the equipment department, Pudi Huqiao, who had been researching and developing the plasma bomb in an underground secret laboratory disguised as a factory for several months, died in the explosion caused by the Foreign Intelligence Team One.

Unaware of this fact, President Wang Jing-wi and the staff who were gathered in the operation room only heard of the tragic news at 9 a.m. and were engulfed in such a shock that it could not be described in words..
