บท 81: Phase Four

Auxiliary Chapters have been updated with more information about characters.

Chapter 1, Has a new and better introduction and also some info my readers need to know before starting this book, I recommend re-reading chapter one Completely.

Chapter 2, has more detail in what our MC does while studying it, also giving more detail about the tank's inside. (Just a minor fix)

Chapter 3, Has added information on the History of the Confederation.

Chapter 4, has only some minor spelling fixes

Chapter 5, has already been edited a few days ago, completely changing how Kyle meets Rudolf and how Rudolf becomes his friend.

Chapter 6, Only added the value in Euros behind the RM amount to give people a better Idea. Spelling mistakes corrected.

Chapter 7, Instead of an instant interrogation, which is very unrealistic, Kyle uses his knowledge from books to write down deployment orders, Invasion planes, Military equipment amount, etc. Shocking Rudolf and making him believe that Kyle is not someone to mess with, but Kyle shows a friendly stance and does not cause any further pressure. His personality has also gotten one tiny change which is written as well.

Chapter 8, Rudolf has a more relaxed stance, he is not Kyle's subordinate but more as a friend. Which I find more appropriate.

Chapter 9, Instead of saying 'sir' all the time it has been changed to 'Kyle' for less formality

Chapter 10, Nothing really changed, just some errors corrected.

Time: 20 Minutes Into Phase Three

Location: British Coast

POV: Gunther's

''Okay men, we have not a lot of time to get into position!'' I shouted at the Panzer Battalion, It are the only 6 E50s produced, together with some Panzer IIIs it forms the bulk of the Panzer force here in England. The Transportation was terrible, splitting each tank in chunks to than ship to England to be reassembled there.

The Tank Commanders quickly relayed the orders to their drivers. In less than 30 seconds we started to move towards the designated position outside of the compound. 'It is eerily silent, aren't there supposed to be planes from us high above the clouds?' I thought. Radio silence has to be kept at all costs unless they wanted to be spotted, so signal flags, hand signatures and normal speech was the main way to communicate with each other. The tanks rolled forward with a mighty momentum, making the ground vibrate as the E 50s were crossing the country with 60km/h, the truck following suite closely.

I raise the Yellow flag which Signals every commander to decrease their speed to 40 Km/h, followed by a blue flag which requests a status update on their tank. Most commanders wave a blue flag in return, but two commanders raised an orange flag which signals they have a malfunction which is not critical but should be kept in mind. We continued to move forwards at astonishing speeds. 'minutes until the estimated arrival at the location.' I checked the map I had with me.' That is weird, I lifted the Green flag which signalled a total emergency stop and to turn off the engines for total silence.

The commanders reacted quickly and in less than 10 seconds all was dead silent. You could hear a low rumbling noise in the distance, 'Planes?' I thought, the rumbling became more distant as time passed, when I could no longer hear it I gave the Signal to continue advancing.

We had an easy advance, the men were silent throughout the trip. 'This must be the location.' I checked my surroundings, it had a dune at the direction of the compound, on top are trees and lush vegetation, perfect to cover their position. Behind them was a straight line to the landing craft and transport ships. I lifted the Black flag which means to set up the position with basic patrols, MG nests, warning traps, Place the tanks at strategical points to rush for the Compound and the trucks facing the ships way back for a quick retreat if necessary.

The men made themselves comfortable as they waited for their show at Phase 7, The man now sat around a heat emitting material that gives off barely any light. I send out the signal to the HMS Dreadnought that we have finished Phase Four, it was sent at the moment large amounts of thunderclouds covered the area as predicted, which might block the signal, but stops any interception.

Time: During the Signal emission of Gunther

Location: CC on the HMS Dreadnought

POV: Kyle's

''Men, we are facing a serious problem right now. We have lost contact with everyone on the ground, it is not that they have been eliminated but that something is jamming the Signal. To have this deployed means they are hiding something. And the last transmission from Nr.89 is also currently being decrypted, the jamming has caused him unable to send much, but he sends it while falling, which means he saw something worth reporting at that moment in time.

Let me replay what we have gotten from him'' I said to the men all present in the CC, they were: Rudolf and the Captain. 'Ths....Nr... Ob....9... Bas....doos.....oe....ne..d....n..ew.....orde...' Until now we have figured out the Beginning, he starts the basic introduction: 'This ** Nr. 89, Object.289, Bas...doos..oe..ne*d new orders. This is what we have de-coded so far, we know it has something to do with the Obj.289, and he needs new orders on top of that, which means it is a variable he can't take the decision on how to solve.'' I said while analysing the message again. ''I am not sure but, it might have to do that the Obj.289 has been already destroyed, it sees new man manning it to increase security due to a mistake in the earlier phases?'' Rudolf tried to think of an answer, 'Beep' The captain's portable radio signalled, ''Excuse me, Marshall, it seems a problem cropped up I must take my leave.'' The captain apologised before running off.

I check my Radio, 'It seems Gunther is successful.' I commented, 'I just silently click the button left of my volume button. Rudolf received the beep, ''It seems it is Up to Shadow now, Phase Six is a go.'' Rudolf said to me while still thinking about the message.
