The War That Transcends Timelines! 106 Behind The Lines

Location: Mulhouse

POV: Commander Edmund

Flak shot at the planes as we fly over Mulhouse, ''LISTEN UP MAGGOTS! OUR TARGET IS THE UNION'S HEAVY ARTILLERY PRODUCTION FACILITY AND RESEARCH LABS! STAY IN GROUPS! AFTER ACHIEVING OUR GOAL WE WILL ESCAPE THROUGH OUR COVERT OPERATION NETWORKS!'' I shouted at my men and over the radio,

''GO GO GO GO!'' I shouted while pushing the Ravens down, 'Operation Fury is finally a go!' I clenched my fists in agitation,'

I counted in my head while holding my Golden badge in my hands, ''FOR THE ORGANISATION!'' I jumped out of the plane whilst shouting.

It was hell, Flak pounding upon the air fleet, a sky covered in parachutes, paratroopers dying left and right...

I looked around me to see my men, before looking at my landing spot, '5000 Meters away from the Factory, we have 1 hour before reinforcements arrive... Challenge accepted.' I smirked.

After a short period of time, I finally landed on the ground.''This is Commander Edmund, my platoon head towards the southern entrance, we will meet up there.'' I ordered my men over the radio.

I checked to see if my MP 40 works before running towards the Entrance, making my way through the thick forest surrounding the factory took 10 minutes, including the time of the drop already 15 minutes have passed.

I grabbed my radio whilst running, contacting the artillery corps, ''I request 3 Shells on the Factory for suppression!'' I sadly hastily, ''Commander Edmund this is the Railway artillery corps as authorization has been given we will fire 3 HE shells upon the target, expect heavy damage...'' The Local commander reported.

Two massive railway artillery pieces rolled out of the mountain with a shell already loaded in each of them, ''LISTEN UP BOYS! WE HAVE 5 MINUTES TO FIRE AND RETREAT BEFORE THE ENEMY AIRFORCE WILL SWARM US!'' The commander shouted with his Radio still on before disconnecting.

I ran another minute before slamming against the outer fence where the platoon was waiting, ''GO GO GO!'' I shouted as we pushed our way through the hole in the fence the others already cut.

''ENEMIES SPOT....!'' A Unionist soldier shouted as he pointed from his watchtower, before his head exploded into a thousand pieces, ''THE TWO WITH EXPLOSIVES SPLIT OFF TO THE RIG...'' I tried to order the men when suddenly the entire earth shook around us and a piercing sound came from afar, massive piles of dirt were blown into the air, ''..IGHT!'' I finished before another explosion came from further away.

'Finally!' I exclaimed as the railway artillery shells did their work, the enemies were thrown into chaos as the shells impacted the Factory, ''HURRY!'' I shouted at the men before signalling the others to follow me into the research labs on the outskirts of the complex.

''ENEMY MACHINEGUN!'' A raven shouted before being mowed down by that very gun, ''fuck!'' I cursed under my breath as I looked into the distance, ''Smoke grenade!'' I ordered while leaping away from my cover.

The machinegunner quickly locked on but was soon thrown into disarray due to the smoke, we crawled under the smokescreen to the edges before firing upon the enemy gunner, ''Charge!'' I shouted while already running,

We reached the Labs with only 2 more casualties, making us only a 4 man squad from the original eight, with the two demolition experts heading over to the factory,

my men walk silently into the bunker which contained the labs, using hand signals they proceeded silently. I stayed outside to stand guard, only 15 minutes pass when I suddenly hear gunfire and desperate screaming, 'What in god's name is going on!' I cursed while running into the building...

Time: 1st of May

Location: Motherbase

POV: Mackensen's

''An utter disaster...'' I said while reading the report, ''Of the one thousand ravens send only 100 made it back through our cover operations, 900 died, no valuable intel was taken and only 2 out of 5 manufacturing buildings were destroyed, and that was only due to the railway fire!'' A general said analytically.

''Write operation down as a failure.'' I stood up and walked up to the window looking over the central transportation hub, the hairs of the generals stood straight as they heard what I said next, ''Classify this operation as SSS graded, send it to the black hands to deal with it and the Marshall, this is even out of my jurisdiction, only one higher power can know.

''Also start Mobilization of the 23rd Motorised Division towards Transmanmur, it is time to prepare for the old plan code named: Celestial Dragon which will try to replace the failure of Operation Dragon. '' I looked at the generals while sliding the report onto the table, ''1 Month, one moth to prepare.''

'These labs research something related to the Marshall, that we can be sure of by the reports of the 100 Ravens that escaped. I have had my suspicion that the marshall is not from this place but is at the same time. I must decide what path to take from here...' I organised my thoughts whilst walking ti the Convoy.
