Dear Comrade the Leader, Episode 316

Chapter 109. From Baekdu to Halla

“… … I’ll try contacting the person above me for a moment, so I’ll wait here for a while, did you see it?”

High-ranking Park Tae-ryong and his comrades, who had a strong foreboding that ‘something (in a bad sense) these guys is unusual!’, quickly picked up the satellite phone and fled.

I already knew that the Republic of Korea’s Foreign Reconnaissance General Bureau was sending reinforcements to support the fighters of the volunteers, but it is a top secret even when asked which comrades are coming, whether it is a reconnaissance brigade or a maritime sniper brigade, and whether there are still personnel left in the home country. After arriving, didn’t the only reply that I would let you know?

When he found out that they were workers at a private military company, the joy that the reinforcements had arrived was short-lived, and the soldiers at the forefront of the civil war, including Park Tae-ryong, were suddenly engulfed in anxiety.

Of course, given the special political situation surrounding Yanbian, I did not expect support for the Panzer Division in the first place. Part of it was the quality of the training they completed and educated during active service.

“What is this? Those comrades, weren’t those soldiers in the days of General Kim Jong-il who said that they could take down US-made B2 bombers with their swordsmanship?

“Comrade Ri Jong-soo probably did… … . But right now, the consumption of the special forces of the Korean People’s Army is so serious across Yanji that I’m thinking that it’s better than nothing… … Once you get in touch, you know!”

The reason why Park Tae-ryong and others were anxious was simple.

Aren’t the private military enterprises the former members of the special warfare unit of the People’s Army, which were mass-produced after the general secretary’s large-scale military reduction and cannot guarantee actual combat power?

Under the continued interest and support of senior officials, including Baek Seung-cheol, a special forces unit of the Korean People’s Army, including the Special Operations Department of the General Bureau of Reconnaissance to which Park Tae-ryong belonged, proper (Western-style) training and equipment were introduced and became a small elite.

However, in many ways, Park Tae-ryong and his colleagues knew that the majority of special forces were the special forces who were discharged from military service from the 1990s to the early 2000s, who made up a significant portion of the previous generation, North Korea’s PMC, and did not even have proper shooting training. will be.

If I just didn’t get training, I’d say that there’s nothing I can do about it because I’ve been through difficult times, but the problem is, among the dogs, the scumbags who say that they can overcome with the power of ideology even if they get hit by pea bullets because of the strange mentality and universalism that was still prevalent in the former People’s Army. It was a plate that had a lot of it, so they couldn’t help but be anxious from their point of view.

Seeing that the workers talking about the Winter Soldier are wearing US military uniforms with removable pouches, quick dismantling designs, and Kevlar fiber and ceramic bulletproof plates, it may not be that much of a stretch, but it’s still not to be vigilant.

Surely you didn’t send those fossils to the front line as reinforcements? After a time of anxious waiting, the voice of Ri Jong-su, director of the General Bureau of External Reconnaissance, who was commanding them, was heard from the other side of the satellite phone.

“Comrade Ri Jong-su. This is Tumangang Branch Office #3. I’m talking about the support troops you sent for this operation, but… … Ah yes. Yes? yes? That’s really… … !!! Oh, yes, it was confidential. I’m figuring it out Of course I wear it. I got it I was the only one who knew great… … !!”

“What is it, how is it? What’s wrong with you?”

“… … Consulting comrades there. Follow me here. I will tell you the current war situation, Yanji map, passwords, and details of the operation.”

“… … !?!?!”

When Park Tae-ryong said nothing and beckoned to the ‘Winter Soldier Consulting’ workers standing in the distance, the eyes of the other crew members widened, but now Park Tae-ryong put his finger to his mouth, telling him not to ask anything.

Team leader Lee, who saw this, came to him with a smile on his face, leading the ‘new workers’ who were still standing next to him, as if he recognized their true worth.

“Finally, my comrades are showing some confidence in the performance of our business! In any case, it is nice to be able to stand shoulder to shoulder and fight for the Republic and our compatriots for a while. What’s the first mission we’ll be on?”

“It’s a radar station. The mobile anti-aircraft system installed by some people near Yanbian is now the biggest problem in preventing the air support of our volunteers and the advance of Ando-hyeon. Comrades and our warriors must be divided into three groups each to hunt down that radar site.”

At this point, going back to three weeks ago and looking back at the moment when this unexpected reinforcements was decided to dispatch, that day was just two days after Jeong-hwan’s moving speech and the public sentiment in the republic greatly changed.

Externally, the Chinese military, which seemed to declare the recapture of Yanji at any moment, temporarily retreated, and internally, voluntary enlistment, early enlistment, and re-enlistment applicants were pouring in. the situation was not.

And the background of this analysis could be confirmed in the never bright expression of Baek Seung-cheol, who can be said to be the top commander of the civil war in North Manchuria.

“The reason behind the decision to temporarily evacuate to Ando Prefecture was that the armored units in Yanji City decided not to continue consuming their troops by forcing an unfavorable urban battle after their inferiority was clearly revealed in the air battle two days ago. I see I don’t know if it’s a remote place with limited arms and refueling, or Yanji is within reach if it falls over at Samjiyeon Airfield, the northernmost base of the Korean People’s Army Air Force.”

“You must have noticed by now that the United States has military and diplomatic support. Moreover, it became difficult to accuse our airstrikes of aggression, as my gang had already bombed Yanji, where many civilians of the country and the Republic were mixed. Now, according to the unwritten rule of reciprocity, we are free to mobilize our air force to support our comrades in the volunteer army.”

“The problem is that in the case of the Red Hawk KA-16, the latest tactical aircraft of our Air Force, the stealth performance in offensive operations is not perfect. I don’t know if it’s until Yeongil, as you can see, if some of these guys back down and regroup and launch an air strike in Ando-hyeon, which is being resupplied… … .”

“It is highly likely that they will become the prey of air defense systems, including mobile radars and anti-aircraft missiles, deployed throughout Yanbian.”

At the general staff meeting held again in the bunker of the Ministry of People’s Armed Forces, when Jeong-hwan put a period on Baek Seung-cheol’s words, Baek Seung-cheol also nodded heavily.

At the same time, the executives and staff who presided over the meeting all at once became frustrated.

The joy of victory was short-lived, but there was still a long way to go until the final victory.

“That’s right. As you know, the Strategic Army has built an X-Band radar base near Jilin Province before, so you can see not only our Republic but also aircraft taking off and landing in South Korea as if you were looking at the palm of your hand. Of course, it’s the KA-16 of our proud republic. Comrade Antonov sitting over there, if you fly low, you can get out of the radar in a limited way… … .”

“… … Yes, but that is the case with the X-Band radar base in Jilin Province far away, and in the case of a military phased array radar that is laid out at a close distance like that to cover Ando Prefecture, whatever you do as soon as it appears, you will be caught by the Chinese anti-aircraft network immediately.”

The main character of the voice of resentment but no choice was Antonov, the developer of the KA-16, or the half-father of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea Air Force.

After the victory in the air war two days ago, which meant a lot to North Korea, both for the nation and for Antonov, he participated as a technical adviser at this meeting of the General Staff.

“The KA-16 is semi-stealth to the last, not completely stealth. Maybe the Chinese are also targeting that, so they use a tactic of lure like that. If you come in, please come in.”

“Where are the radar bases located? Is there any way to defeat it with our current available power?”

In response to Jeong-hwan’s question, Baek Seung-cheol displayed the information obtained and reported by each county of the People’s Army, as well as maps and satellite images of the Yanbian area, in the briefing room.

The satellite image showed red circles surrounding the three vertices of a triangle centered in Ando County, where the main force of the Chinese army stationed in Yanbian is currently concentrated.

“As a result of backtracking the radar frequencies collected by the U.S. side by mobilizing all 80 satellites and signal information collection systems possessed by the Strategic Army of the Korean People’s Army, we have succeeded in identifying three heavily concealed Radar bases. The Radar Sites appear to consist of mobile anti-aircraft radar vehicles, surface-to-air missiles, and forces defending them, and in this case, missiles are generally the most effective means of attack… … .”

“I do not know… … First of all, the target is not different, and since it is an anti-aircraft radar, the probability of being shot down in the middle is very high… … The problem is that missiles are basically accepted as offensive weapons in the international community. There is a very high possibility that it will adversely affect the armistice negotiations with China that are currently being carried out by President Rice and the diplomatic fighters of the Republic of Korea. Isn’t it right to consider an attack method with more tactical options?”

“Then we will have to attack and destroy it with a small number of elite infantrymen made up of special forces officers. Is it possible? Hundreds?”

“That… … The attack itself is possible, but… … .”

Jung-hwan suggested an alternative to Kim Yong-geon’s advice, but Baek Seung-cheol made a difficult expression this time as well.

“Due to the last airstrike, the consumption of our Special Forces fighters is quite serious. In the weeks after the war started, I was killed and injured countless times… … In addition to that, they were hit by bombardment from a defenseless state not too long ago, resulting in a huge loss of life, and there are absolutely not enough seasoned elite warriors to mobilize for the operation.”

“… … !!!”

At Baek Seung-cheol’s report, Jeong-hwan sighed and touched his forehead.

As always, people and human assets are the most difficult and valuable assets to develop.

This time, the surface-to-air missile and radar site hunting mission was of high importance, so the probability of success of the operation was also a high-level special operation different from that of just street fighting.

Not to mention the militia, which was until recently, civilians must mobilize ordinary infantry for this operation, which is highly likely to become a burden rather than a help. There was a huge lack of power.

Until now, the metallurgical and metallurgical forces consumed by the continuous street battles were not easy, but the most decisive loss was the casualties of the troops caused by the bombing of the Chinese Air Force, which was hit without notice two days ago.

Since Yanji cannot be abandoned, it is necessary to leave some troops to defend. After allocating troops to the defense and command of the militia, there is absolutely not enough manpower to carry out the operation.

“… … How about asking President Rice for help? U.S. special forces units such as the Navy Seal have proven their experience and skills in hunting such radar sites… … .”

“That’s not okay. If U.S. special forces are sent to a mission with a high mortality rate like this one, and an American corpse or hostage is found on the battlefield, Bo Bo Lai will be happy to kick the United States out of the arbitration table. There is a high possibility that Russia will also be stimulated.”

‘Then there is only one place left.’

After organizing his thoughts, Jeonghwan quickly made a decision and gave instructions to the executives around him.

“Is it possible to call the hotline at this Ministry of People’s Armed Forces building now? Lead me from the clerk’s office to this bunker. There are heads of state who need help now.”

“comrade. If it’s the White House, it’s midnight right now… … .”

“It’s not Washington. He’s a person with a hundred degrees of connection.”

Soon, a hotline was connected from the secretary’s office to the building of the Ministry of People’s Armed Forces, and although the call was sudden, the person on the call agreed to the call with Jeong-hwan without much hesitation.

Watching the other person’s eyes on the screen through a video call, Junghwan frankly confided the situation.

There is no way that the other side is unaware of the current situation, and for now, honesty was the best policy.

“… … In the meantime, I have been deceived, deceived, and pretended to be deceived by talking and negotiating with countless leaders. However, in my opinion, the current situation of the white-chested ganchi is not the time to engage in such shallow tactics.”

“… … .”

“… … Please help. I know it’s a sudden, and almost certainly, an unreasonable demand to be hostile to China. But now, I, and this Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, need your help more than anything else.”

* * *

“Three strike groups, Baekdusan, Hallasan, and Geumgangsan, each group scrambles to the radar base that was delivered in advance in the dark, subdues the escort forces with a surprise attack, and then cracks the radar at the same time!”

“… … After defeating the radar, the road of stable air support will be opened from the home country, and both ground and air forces will storm into Ahn Do-hyeon within 30 hours of the General Staff’s estimated time before they install radar again or bring in Genome’s electronic electricity. We will strengthen our victory in this war!”

“Currently, at the Samjiyeon Airfield in our home country, the chasers are sitting on the runway waiting for us to destroy the radar site at any time, and ground forces such as armored and mechanized infantry, such as armored and mechanized infantry, will attack Ando-hyeon with us as soon as they secure air rights near the Korea-China border. Reinforcements are on standby for 5 minutes. In other words, the victory or defeat of this war depends on us. Any questions?”

“That… … .”

“What happened?”

And again, there was a final operational briefing at Yanji City Hall, which was once a city hall, but now functions as a field command post for the Korean People’s Volunteer Army, militia, and other pro-Korean forces, with three hours left to attack the radar site.

When someone raised a hand and asked a briefing of field commanders dispatched from the General Staff’s Office of Operations, everyone’s attention was focused on him.

The military officer, who raised his hand, looked at the ‘Hallasan’ Joe, that is, the mercenary team leaders of the Winter Soldier Consulting who had just joined, and asked a question with a look of still uncertainty.

“If you look at the satellite reconnaissance, the number is second to none, but their bases are being protected by mechanized infantry, including armored vehicles… … Our troops are practically straight infantry, aren’t they? Of course, the General Staff has prepared their own alternatives, but how was it possible to do such a difficult operation with comrades who had never worked together before? Isn’t that just a distraction… … .”

“… … Hey, just say you won’t believe us if you don’t believe us. Don’t go round and round for nothing.”

“Hey, huh? If you go, say it openly! I saw all of you guys struggled with the Type 01 subgun type B before, too! Some people grunt while wandering around the place to mount the vertical grip (handle) and sight. How can we trust idiots like you and go on such a dangerous operation?”

“hey! How many times did we guys shoot your guns during the enemy weapon training? Even if it wasn’t for the command’s orders… … As for the sniper rifle, we brought the one we used, so if you don’t believe it, why don’t you guys do it together!”

“What? Do you know if you can’t do it? Girae, where am I… … !!”

“… … Regarding the skills of the members of ‘Mt. Halla’, Comrade Lee Jong-su and … … Comrade Baek Seung-cheol guaranteed it. If you have any complaints about the giraffe, please report it directly to them.”

“… … !!!”

Just as the argument between the three members was about to escalate into a fistfight, the high-ranking Park Tae-ryong coughed and informed, and the son-in-law became silent all at once.

Is what you just said really true?

“Is that really true, Comrade Park? A hundred-degree comrade listens to those idiots… … .”

“Did I tell lies in a place like this? Girai, if you have a more dissatisfied comrade, raise your hand and tell me.”

“… … .”

There was no answer.

As for the members of the North Korean special operations forces gathered here, no matter how different their affiliations were, there was no one who knew how much interest, support, and nurture by General Baek Seung-cheol.

Unbeknownst to others, the unspoken conviction that Baek Seung-cheol couldn’t leave the backs of his own children like his own children to the lowly reinforcements was widespread among them.

“… … Girum If there are no more questions, it will depart 6 hours later at 1 o’clock the next day. So that everyone is ready to check their equipment and prepare their hearts after writing a will.”

In this way, the radar site hunting operation to secure air supremacy as a basic preparation to attack Ando-hyeon, the main force of the Chinese army, entered the execution stage.

It was a stage to test the skills of the special operations forces of the Korean People’s Army that had been honed in the field, and it was also the starting point for the proxy war between the two dynasties and the Yanbian Civil War to enter the second half after passing the first half.
