Bab 518: Chapter 17: Gunshots at Dawn

The takeover of the airport went smoothly.

At least until Sergeant John burst into an unremarkable dormitory building.

Sergeant John, wielding a Sten submachine gun, kicked open the dormitory door and rushed into the hallway.

He came face-to-face with a man in a Prosen Air Force uniform and froze.

The other man froze as well.

Since there was no exchange of fire, the Prosen spoke in rough Ongsa language, "You need permission to enter here!"

Sergeant John raised his submachine gun and opened fire. Although the accuracy of the Sten was notoriously poor, at this range and volume of fire, accuracy was irrelevant.

The Prosen was hit by four bullets and slammed backward against the wall, where he remained for a few seconds before sliding down.

Sergeant John didn't delay, and he tossed a grenade into the adjutant's office next to him.

The guard, just opening the door, saw the grenade fly over his head, his eyes wide in shock.
