Episode 65 – G650 ER
A reconnaissance drone was flown to confirm the suitability.
The shape of the sentry post in the jungle was so unrecognizable. The trench remained as the only cover.
The risk factor was that the trench was built in a T-shape and was quite large. In other words, the enemy’s depth combat range was large.
That meant that the enemy could continue to move troops and supplies to the beach defenses.
It was decided to launch a second bombardment 30 minutes before sunset and then begin the landing operation.
With the artillery fire stopped, we waited for the enemy to restore the trenches and re-introduce troops to maintain the defensive line.
The purpose was to exhaust the enemy’s combat capabilities as much as possible.
We came to the conclusion that when landing, we had to project such firepower that the enemy could not raise his head.
Now all I had to do was wait for night to come.
…
30 minutes before landing, total firepower began.
It was filled with gunshots and gunshots that could transform heaven and earth.
The 76mm and 30mm guns of Ship No. 1 and the 30mm machine guns of Ship No. 9 fired continuously.
The two ships’ 12.7mm and 7.62m heavy machine guns also poured a hail of bullets into the jungle of Ditobato Island.
While the ship’s ammunition was being reloaded for a moment, the 9th ship’s Phalanx 20mm CIWS (MK.15 Phalanx) gun began spewing fire non-stop.
– Drurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…
The Phalanx gun was an anti-aircraft weapon, but in this situation, it also showed its power in ground attacks.
3,000 tungsten bullets were being poured into the jungle per minute. It looked like a laser, not a bullet.
The trees in the jungle that had been hit by machine cannon bullets fell helplessly.
The grass cutter was cutting down the jungle vegetation, as if it was cutting grass.
From ship number 1, two high-speed single boats and one high-speed rescue boat departed for the landing one by one, and at the same time, an NH90 NFH helicopter took off and began strafing.
While Phalanx Artillery No. 1 stopped to refill its ammunition. The other No. 2 Phalanx gun was continuously pouring out 50 tungsten bullets per second towards the MILF’s coastal defense line.
As the OSS team landed, about 30 Revolver 860 attack drones flew one after another toward the enemy’s beach positions.
The attack drone squadron freely dropped 240 HE 60mm mortar shells into a trench in the jungle.
Enemies hiding in the trenches served as good guides for the attack drones.
This was because the location of trenches, which were difficult to identify in the jungle, could be confirmed using a thermal imaging camera.
Enemy troops being reinforced from the MILF base along the T-shaped trench were eliminated one by one before they reached the beach defense line.
It became prey to the Revolver 860 attack drone that was tracking it with a thermal imaging camera.
The drone bombardment was even more effective as a large portion of the dense trees were removed by the shelling.
Despite the fire, the OSS operations team completed the landing safely. A beachhead was established with cover on the coast.
…
As darkness fell, the OSS operations team, led by Delta Team, slowly and carefully entered the jungle.
A MILF facing an OSS wearing night goggles and aiming with an infrared laser in pitch-black darkness must have felt like fighting a ghost.
The remaining MILF remnants fell one by one, screaming along with gunfire.
AK47 gunshots and RPG 7 gunshots could be heard intermittently in the jungle of Ditobato Island.
But it wasn’t an aimed shot, it was just a scream of fear fired helplessly out of fear.
In this way, the OSS operations team below Delta occupied the beach trenches that were the enemy’s defense line. Without a single injured person.
Let the day dawn. The Mindanao Autonomous Army landed and left it to them to search the jungle.
We had done enough and didn’t want to take any more risks.
…
The Mindanao autonomous government seemed determined to completely eradicate the MILF at this point.
They used the trench area on the coast of Ditobato Island, occupied by the OSS, as a bridgehead and landed an overwhelming force.
Troops were deployed to search deep into the jungle, where many casualties were expected to occur.
As a result, we succeeded in completely neutralizing the enemy’s base.
So we ended the battle. After leaving Ditobato Island to the Mindanao Autonomous County, we returned to Sinheung Camp in Tawi-Tawi.
…
Director Kim Wan-jun seemed to be busy post-fighting. A few days passed as we rested.
Suddenly, the main entrance to the outer wall of Sinheung Camp became noisy. I saw old military trucks lined up in a row.
As I approached, out of nowhere, director Kim Wan-jun got out of the lead truck. And he seemed to be distracted by controlling the vehicle here and there.
Director Kim Wan-jun, who spotted me, approached me with a huge smile on his face.
“CEO!”
“Yes, Director. “What’s going on?”
“ha ha ha. “I received something from the local government.”
“yes?”
“No matter how friendly and well-intentioned we are, we can’t just sit by and watch them wash their mouths, right?”
“? ”
“I coaxed and coaxed them, so I took away all the useful things.”
“oh. “What is that?”
“See for yourself.”
I followed him to the truck line. The loading box was filled with wooden boxes that seemed familiar and unknown.
Director Kim Wan-jun could not hide the smile on his face. He opened the box like a child opening a Christmas gift box.
“This, this!”
It was RPG 7. It was an item that was thought necessary during the Battle of Sevmash Shipyard.
“Wow! “What about all these trucks?”
“yes. “It’s everything.”
“How much?”
“770 RPG 7 launchers, a total of 3,400 warheads of various types.”
“wow!”
“They said it was half of the quantity held by the Mindanao Autonomous County. ha ha ha”
Director Kim Wan-jun, he was smiling brightly with a triumphant look.
“All this for free?”
“sure. Would you compare it to the ammunition we used in Ditobato?”
“Well done Director. “It was something I thought I needed.”
“I see the CEO is happy. It’s good.”
“How can you not be happy when your hands and feet are in perfect harmony like this? ha ha ha”
Is this what it feels like to be free? We all felt good about this unexpected windfall.
The amount may not be that big, but considering the experience of paying more every time I get something, it was a really good feeling.
And perhaps because of its reputation as ‘Allah’s magic wand,’ strangely enough, it was not easy to obtain RPG 7.
…
Every day was busy with the organization growing bigger and bigger and the work being done here and there.
As well as the establishment of PMC Airlines. Director Jeong Si-woon was built in Ukraine, I was built in Tawi-Tawi, Philippines, OSL headquarters was built in Korea, and the cruise ship was built in Japan.
The need for private jets was felt.
After much consideration, I decided on the Gulfstream G650 ER. It was also the business jet model used by Elon Musk and Justin Bieber.
Vice President Jin Min-gyu was busy establishing an airline.
I told Director Kim Wan-jun to purchase it as soon as possible and bring it to Tawi-Tawi Bongao Airport.
Peaceful daily life continued in Sinheung Camp.
Even in Tawi-Tawi, in the southernmost part of the Philippines, the weather got cold enough to require a coat.
Many places around the world were recording the lowest temperatures on record day after day. ‘Winter is coming’ was not just a rhetoric expressing a crisis, but was becoming a reality that was approaching right before our eyes.
Seoul, Korea recorded -33 degrees Celsius for the first time ever. Hongcheon, Gangwon-do recorded a temperature of -47 degrees Celsius, a situation reminiscent of Siberia.
There was no mention of North Korea. There was even an opinion that the security threat had disappeared thanks to the severe cold wave.
I couldn’t help but worry about maintaining the increasingly large OSS and OSL in preparation for the coming tribulation.
The more organized one was, the more advantageous it was to deal with physical threats such as terrorism or looting.
As they decided to take care of their families, various concerns began to arise.
First, he ordered the expansion of the TMSH base on Tihiktihik Island, where construction was completed.
In addition to ensuring that all our ships can dock. Construction has begun to expand the berthing facilities for the two submarines at Shinheung Camp and TMSH dock.
The roof was covered and it was possible to sail after submerging. This was because it seemed necessary to avoid aerial surveillance by satellites and other sources.
The entire organization was made to stockpile food and other supplies to last for three years. Water was stored in constant circulation thanks to a fully equipped seawater desalination facility.
Construction of wind and solar power generation facilities was completed, and the energy problem had been largely resolved. In addition, military resources such as helicopters and high-speed boats were also managed in a moss ball state.
– Mothballing: A method of storing equipment in a state where it can be used immediately while maintaining its original function for a long time. A vaporizing corrosion inhibitor binds to metal surfaces to prevent equipment corrosion.
Currently, the TMSH base is managed by going back and forth between Sinheung Camp, but in case of an emergency, the plan was to abandon the camp and move to TMSH.
Meanwhile, Vice President Jin Min-gyu flew to Korea.
It was to recruit the president of OSSAC (OSS Air Cargo), the future OSS airline.
The candidate for OSSAC president was General Kim Woong, who served as Deputy Chief of Staff of the Republic of Korea’s Joint Chiefs of Staff.
He retired as a lieutenant general and was an elite soldier who served as the commander of a combat wing and the head of the Force Planning Department of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Considering future cooperation with the U.S. military, there was no doubt that he was the best person to be the president of PMC Airlines.
I had my own thoughts about carrying out such an unreasonable project.
This was because it was thought that there was a high possibility that a war would break out between both sides of the Strait, that is, between China and Taiwan.
At that time, it was obvious that military logistics would increase explosively.
Rather than making money, the purpose was to increase OSS capabilities and obtain sensitive information in such situations.
While I was busy establishing OSSAC, I received a call from Director Jeong Si-woon.
The cruise ship acquired from Germany’s AIDA Cruises and being built by MHI Mitsubishi Heavy Industries was about to be launched soon.
It was necessary to name the ship and prepare for launch.
The name was chosen as OSS Laetus. It means ‘happy, joyful’ in Latin. She appointed Hye-in as the godmother to perform the launching ceremony.
For some reason, I felt sorry for being excluded from being the godmother of all ships. And he was also a person worthy of a beautiful boat.
While I was imagining the beautiful hull of the Rator and was filled with anticipation, Deputy Director Lee came to visit.
“Representative Lee!”
I was waiting for him to say something. It was he who illuminated his possibilities for the ESB reactor.
“yes. “What happened?”
“haha. “This person must be really desperate.”
“sure.”
“I guess I’ll have to fly back to Korea.”
