Chapter 6: Iron Heart

Zagorian Defense Force's Field Headquarter, Zagoria's Eastern Flank, 15 miles into the Zagoria's side of the Zagoria-Udaloya's border.

August 21st, 14:15

Grid: 0941567324

Situation: The Knothole Freedom Fighter commanded by Sally Acorn must help the ZDF defend their border against the sudden invasion by Udaloya.

Weather: Clear

Force Estimation:

+BLUFOR: 1 motorized infantry platoon.

+OPFOR: 1 armored recon company.

Amadeus's Briefing: Situation has just gone way too hot. This morning the Udaloyan president has just declared an "International meddling" into regional affair and he's using the excuses of the coalition's bombardment, and the casaulties of the pro Udaloyan militian as excuses to invade and annex the Cascasus mountains. I'm giving the green light to assist the ZDF's defensive operation in anyway possible. Right now our first priority is to knockout the the invasion force's main armored thrust, your mission objective is to defend the ZDF's field headquarter our their entire Eastern Flank will collapse. There's a railway bridge on in front of the HQ you can use it to ambush the incoming armored recon force. Satellite recon shows that the enemy are moving in a pair of T90 main battle tank backed up by a large contingent of infantry. You need to use anything and everything at your disposal to stop them or this war is over before we even decided the best outcome.

ZDF's intel: Our force's stationed at the HQ are lightly, they are armed with only small arms and hand grenades, and only a DhsK HMG to defend the the HQ from the invading force. We do have some magnetic AT mines that you can use. Lay them on the road where the tanks would go then we can ambush them with everything we got.

At the field headquarter of the ZDF's eastern flank, inside a small wooden house stand by a road in front of a railway bridge. Sally Acorn, leader of the Knothole Freedom Fighter, wearring her standard issue Crye Universal Camo uniform with a Crye Precision AirFrame Helmet was working with NICOLE, her best friend and the Freedom Fighter's friendly AI to workout the assault route of the Udaloyan's Army in the area. Working tiredlessly on the holographic map and communication grids of both friendlies and enemies, NICOLE gently draws up a map of the enemy's armored recon patrol that was heading straight for the HQ. "Okay Sally, the enemy armored patrol is coming toward us from the road but there are also infantry patrols on bothsides of the railway bridge. If they sneak through our defenses then they'll be able to mount a pincer move against us with everything they have."

NICOLE explains the situation to Sally as she displays the enemy's advances through the woods from an overhead satellite map. "Thanks NICOLE. Real appreciated. Alright Freedom Fighters, this is the plan. The ZDF forces are gonna hold the HQ, we'll split up into two teams, then we'll find and destroy those patrols before they can radio in support. We'll then move to the bridge and set up an ambush. Sonic, Tails you two are with me. Antoine, Bunnie and Rotor you guys will take the forrest to the left. Let's get this show on the road." the freedom fighters then moves out of the HQ building and split up into two teams of 3 and began their patrols inside the woods.

Tails was moving closely with Sonic, the fox was having a hard time mentally, he hasn't displayed any kind of emotion lately eversince that bomb at the border blows up. The sight and sounds of radio statics, his teammates were all killed in the blast but he was still alive. For what? To be tormented by this nightmare over and over again whether he is awake or asleep? Even Sonic wasn't helping his best friend to recover from these traumas. Just making it worst, the way Sonic act, the way he behaves, his life styles and ultimately his cocky, egotistical attitude makes Tails disgust.

Tails need counseling and help from a mother like his real mother Rosemary Prower, or maybe his legal guardian Sally Acorn. But Sonic's carefree, fun loving way of life drove the two once best friends apart. Tails was keeping his cool, carefully observing his surroundings, holding his weapon tight and retain ever ready vigilant attitude. When suddenly his fox ears heard something. He heard the sounds crunching grasses, and Russians speaking in the distance (Author's note: From this point onward the OPFOR will be refer as Russian).

"I heard Russians. Deploying drone." Tails quickly assemble a Quad rotor drone and controls it from his Cross Com monocle. The drone was flying through the forest when it came to a clear area with rocky formations, it spotted the enemy patrols there were five of them. Walking calmly by the railway, with no suspicion in their mind, but that would soon change. "Contact, enemy foot mobiles 40 meters up head.

Three riflemen, one machine gunner and a support gunner." Tails desginated the five enemy soldiers that he saw with red diamond shape icons. The red diamonds appears on the HUDs of Sally and Sonic who then moves up behind a pair of trees and take cover. They peer at the enemy patrols who were moving towards them and aim their weapons at the enemy troops. Tails came up last and aim his M468 at the machine gunner who wielding a PKP Pecheng LMG. "Sonic, Sally. This is Rotor, we got enemy contacts, moving to engage now. Over."; "Copy that Rotor, we got hostiles contact on our side too. Moving to engage now."

Sally then gave the signal for her teammates to open fire and the muzzle flashes flares up, firing at the Russians who were on coming toward them. On the other side of the railway bridge. Rotor and his teammates were also engaging the Russian patrols in a surprise ambush, first they suppressed the enemies. Then one of them flank around and finish up the patrols. Sonic and Bunnie flanked the Russian patrols on the right and left flank respectively, wiping out the enemies before they can contact reinforcements. "All clear! Alright move up at the bridge. We'll set up ambush there."

Sally and her teammates all gather at the bridge where from on top, they saw Russian infantries being led by a pair of T90 tanks. "Javelin ready. Missile Lock. Fire!" Rotor launches a Javelin ATGM missile flying on top of a T90 and blow up the tank. He then fired another missile after reload and destroy the other tank with quick success. "Open fire on the hostiles!" Sally made the call for her teammates to drop the remaining Russian soldiers who were panicking and running for cover. Hails of bullets from on top of the bridge rained down on the Russians below, the enemy troops were panicked at the sudden high casaulties they received, they eventaully routed, retreat to the rear of their lines while Sally and her teammates were celebrating their quick victory. "We did it Sal! Way past!" Sonic high five Sally but the cocky hedgehog soon notice a serious look on Sally's face, the squirred-chipmunk hybrid was looking at the road that the Russians retreated, "We're not done yet Sonic. Something tells me this is the beginning of a long bloody war. And i'm fearful for Tails's fate in this war. I just hope that we all come home safely, all of us."
The war has begun. The sum of all Cold War fear has become reality as the Red Army starts rolling down onto its feeble neighbor in attemp to rebuild the Soviet Union, standing in its way is a small Task Force of the Coalition of Mobian Aid. From the front line of the war, Sally Acorn must see to her team's safety and mission accomplishment as her squad must defend the outpost of the ZDF forces from the enemy attack.
