Republic of Korea in Yeokcheon - Chapter 280
Only Krnovel
#280. What is this? Here?
Pot!
As soon as the order to begin the operation was given by Special Forces Commander Han Ki-joo, the entire oilfield plant was plunged into darkness in an instant.
Someone cut the power at the signal to start the operation.
When the lights suddenly went out, the rioters who were dozing off and guarding the hostages were confused.
“What, what is it?”
“Why is there electricity… … .”
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The heads of the panicked guards disappeared or the upper body disappeared completely.
It was the power of a 12.7mm caliber bullet that penetrated the wall.
And that was just the beginning.
Snipers, who were monitoring the movements of key targets such as guards with thermal scopes, fired shots one after another.
Phew! Phew! Phew!
As the K-14 sniper rifle fired its special .308 HPBT (Hollow Point Boat Tail) bullets through its silencer, the unaware insurgents fell.
And then the mysterious shock that keeps coming through the wall.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As soon as the wall was breached, the torso or head of the rioter disappeared without a trace.
There were also occasional grazes, which made the situation even more dire.
When it brushes against your head, it disappears as if a part of your head has been bitten off, just like the Apple logo.
Of course, it wasn’t a slightly bitten apple like an Apple apple, but rather a deeply bitten apple.
This is a situation where someone bursts out without a trace in the pitch-black darkness.
The mob was paralyzed with fear.
“Wh, what’s going on!”
“It’s an attack!”
“Hostage? Get the hostage! Without the hostage, we’re dead!”
At someone’s shout, a few people mustered up their courage and ran towards the place where the hostages were being held, guns or machetes in hand, but that path soon led to the afterlife.
If there were windows, sniper bullets would pour in through them, and if there were only walls, 12.7mm bullets would pierce through them without fail and dismantle them.
Han Ki-joo, who was watching the scene on video, opened his mouth again.
“Enter! Anyone holding a weapon or extension cord, or who does not surrender, will be shot!”
From all sides, the messengers of death silently descended upon them.
Wearing night vision goggles, they slaughtered the rioters without any hindrance even in the dark.
Push! Push! Push!
“Huh!”
“100 million!”
Thud! Thud!
Push! Push! Push! Swish! Swish! Swish!
“Eww!”
dump!
“Flashbang!”
Boom!
Push! Push! Push!
There was nothing that could stop them, they were called the White Tigers.
Because they were the strongest special forces of this era.
Finally, less than ten minutes after the advance began, the lead team was able to reach the location where the hostages were being held.
Push! Push! Push!
As the last two guards fell, Bravo Team leader Choi Jin-cheol shouted while shining a flashlight.
“We are the Republic of Korea Army! We have come to rescue you!”
“Old, it’s the military!”
“The military! We survived!”
“Ugh!”
There were cries of relief that they were now alive, and the cries of some of the female hostages.
However, the expression on Team Leader Choi Jin-cheol’s face, who was trying to calm the commotion, became severely distorted.
“What the hell!”
Cheek!
A radio message came to the headset of Director Han Ki-joo, who was watching the video.
– This is Bravo!
“Speak up, bravo.”
-The hostages have been secured.
“Whew! Great job! Bravo!”
-But… … .
“Huh? Why? What’s going on?”
-Three additional victims have been found.
“What? Additional casualties? What are you talking about?”
―They say that two of them passed away after their injuries worsened when they were taken hostage by the mob. And one of them was executed yesterday afternoon… … .
“What the hell is this? What the hell is this! Are you sure? Are you sure he died before the operation?”
– That’s for sure. The two bodies are already decomposing due to the hot, humid weather.
“Whew! Damn it! Got it. Bravo, protect the hostages until everyone is subdued!”
-All right.
It was fortunate that no one was harmed during the suppression, but in any case, it has to end now.
In about ten minutes, more than 100 of the 300 rioters were killed, but close to 200 remained.
But once the hostages were secured, they were no longer a problem.
“Chief! Bravo has secured the hostages! Now, all lights will turn on simultaneously and the surrender broadcast will begin. In one minute, any rioters who do not lie down or do not follow orders will be shot!”
Pot!
As the factory lights came on, pre-recorded announcements in Indonesia’s three official languages, Manin, Javanese and Sundanese, were played over loudspeakers.
“Surrender! Surrender! Anyone standing will be shot in a moment!”
Repeatedly recommending surrender for about a minute.
“Clean up!”
Push! Push! Push!
The messengers all started cleaning at once.
Anyone who stood was guaranteed to be shot.
Push! Push! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
“Eww!”
“100 million!”
“Surrender… … . Ugh!”
“What are you saying? Who told you to raise your hands? Who told you to get down?”
Those who raise their hands are also killed.
It was because I didn’t properly follow the order to lie down, but honestly, it seemed like the feelings of the members had a bit of an effect.
Do this for another 15 minutes or so.
Cheek!
-This is Alpha! This is Alpha!
“Speak Alpha.”
-Everything is sorted out.
“Thank you for your hard work. I’ll go in.”
Colonel Han Ki-joo entered the factory accompanied by a military doctor who had been waiting.
The inside of the factory is a veritable sea of blood.
But he didn’t even blink an eye.
This is because it was a much milder taste compared to the war with the Japanese Kwantung Army or the war of aggression against the Soviet Union.
“Loyalty! Captain Choi Jin-cheol!”
“Ah, bravo, team leader. You’ve worked hard.”
“No, sir.”
“What about the hostages?”
“We have temporarily moved to the restaurant. Please come this way.”
As Han Ki-joo followed Team Leader Bravo, he saw the hostages resting while being cared for by the agents.
“Thank you for your hard work. My name is Han Ki-joo, the commander of the 707th Special Mission Group of the ROK Army.”
“Oh my! Thank you! Thank you so much!”
“I really didn’t know you would rescue me so quickly! Long live the Republic of Korea! Sob!”
“… … .”
Their appearances were beyond words.
It looked like both men and women had been beaten up pretty badly.
“The military doctor here will treat you well. Let’s get some first aid and go back. Captain Cho, I’ll be counting on you.”
“Don’t worry.”
Han Ki-joo comforted the hostages and left the restaurant.
“What about the additional victims discovered?”
“Come this way.”
Let’s go to another room. It was so cold that they turned the air conditioner on really loud.
“First, to prevent further corruption, I turned on the air conditioner and turned it on full blast.”
“Well done.”
“And here it is.”
Team Leader Bravo pointed to the body bags neatly placed on one side.
“Open it and take a look.”
Sizzle!
The corpses were revealed when the zipper was opened.
It’s a disaster.
And the body that was executed yesterday had its head separated, indicating it had been decapitated.
“These little bastards… … . Phew!”
“I will close it.”
“Okay. But what happened to these people?”
“They say that the two of them died shortly after the mob invaded. As you can see, they were beaten to death.”
“But why are there only three victims known so far?”
“That’s right, the person who first reported the situation was the one who was later beheaded and secretly informed the embassy via satellite communication. But they were still alive at that time.”
“Satellite communicator? You had that?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Han Ki-joo’s expression instantly hardened.
Because the identity of the beheaded person was guessed.
The satellite communicator that Team Leader Bravo just mentioned is a satellite phone, and this is issued in very limited quantities.
Satellite-based communications themselves were only recently made possible by satellite launches, and were currently limited to parts of Asia, with distribution strictly controlled, and only issued to some in the military for emergency purposes.
So, it was more strict for the civilians, and it was a valuable item that was given only to those who were dispatched to remote areas such as for oil field development, and among them, only those from expedition teams were given confidential information.
But you had a satellite communication device?
In conclusion, the beheaded man had a satellite phone… … .
“Then, is this person Jeong Jae-yong, executive director of the Korea National Oil Corporation?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“What the hell!”
The information that Han Ki-joo had received in advance said that Executive Director Jeong Jae-yong would be alive.
Because he was the last person to deliver the news to the embassy.
But he was beheaded in this way and became so unrecognizable to himself.
Among the Koreans in Sumatra, only two were from the expedition team: Vice President Moon Dong-joo and Executive Director Jeong Jae-yong, and both of them have passed away.
If I reported it to my superiors, there would be chaos again.
“Then, what is the reason that Executive Director Jeong Jae-yong was beheaded?”
“Yes, that’s right. He was discovered shortly after and was severely beaten before being executed yesterday.”
“Fuck!”
“… … .”
Han Ki-joo looked at the corpse bag with a sad heart for a moment and then came out.
“You guys, you take responsibility and serve them respectfully.”
“All right.”
“Vice President Moon Dong-joo and the other two?”
“They said they dumped it in a corner of the factory yard, so the Delta team is collecting it.”
“Let’s go and see.”
“yes.”
As I was leaving the factory, the Delta team happened to be carrying three body bags carefully on stretchers.
“Captain.”
“Are these people?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“Vice President Moon Dong-joo?”
“This is the bag.”
“Open.”
Sizzle!
When the bag was opened, a gruesome corpse was revealed.
His neck was half-severed and barely attached, and he had been beaten so many times that there was not a single healthy spot on his body.
“Ah, father… … .”
“yes?”
Team Leader Delta was surprised when Han Ki-joo suddenly called him ‘father’ and asked a question before closing his mouth.
The captain’s eyes were bloodshot, as if he had been through a lot of chaos, so he thought he should keep quiet.
After a while.
“I was very close with senior Moon Jeong-sik, and he was like a father to me, who didn’t have a father.”
It was not true that Han Ki-joo had no father.
However, his father did not come over because of his other brothers and stayed in the future. Perhaps because of this, Moon Jeong-sik’s father, Moon Dong-ju, who was a senior in the same class at the military academy and was close to him, treated him almost like a son.
But you can’t say that to Team Leader Delta.
Not only the Delta team leader, but 99% of the current commissioned and field-level officers of the ROK military were from this era.
“Ah! Sorry, I’m sorry.”
“What do you have to be sorry about? Anyway, I will treat you well.”
“I will serve you like my father!”
“… … .”
Han Ki-joo looked at Team Leader Delta again.
He seemed like a guy who would do really well in society.
At that moment, Team Leader Alpha walked over with brisk strides.
“Captain!”
“Yeah, you worked hard. How’s the cleanup?”
“I can finish it in 30 minutes.”
“Okay, hurry up. Oh, how many guys have you captured?”
“According to what we have now figured out, 81 of the 322 rioters have been captured.”
“You’ve lived a long life.”
“yes?”
Alpha Team Leader was embarrassed, as if he was being reprimanded for saving too many lives.
“no.”
“Yes, ah! And the masterminds have also been captured.”
“What? The masterminds were caught alive?”
“Yes, that’s right. I followed the controls the best because I didn’t want to die.”
“hmm…….”
Han Ki-joo thought for a moment and then opened his mouth again.
“I’ll give you exactly 30 minutes.”
“yes?”
“Find out the full story of the incident from the masterminds within 30 minutes! No matter what the means, can you do it?”
“Of course!”
“okay.”
It didn’t even take 30 minutes for Team Leader Alpha to interrogate the masterminds.
– Captain. This is Alpha. The interrogation is over.
“What? Already?”
– Yes, that’s right. Excuse me, but would you like to come to the interrogation room? It seems like we’ve rescued Wang Geon.
“Wang Geon? I knew.”
Has it been 25 minutes?
Team Leader Alpha reported that the interrogation was over, and it seemed that some major information had been obtained.
Han Ki-joo quickly found a makeshift interrogation room and opened the door, frowning immediately.
“What is this? Here?”
Han Ki-joo mistakenly thought he had found a butcher shop rather than an interrogation room.
Because the corpses of rioters with their heads missing or their upper bodies severed were hanging everywhere.
