God of Blackfield

Chapter 137.2: What are you all doing here? (2)

Rifles, grenades, and flamethrowers were put in front of them. Among them were three types of modified K-1 rifles. They were equipped with day/night system rifle scopes and had small rangefinders attached to the side.

Click. Click.?

Kang Chan and Seok Kang-Ho picked up the Daewoo Telecom K7s and suppressed submachine guns. Kim Tae-Jin, Seok Kang-Ho, and Choi Jong-Il’s party took K-1 rifles.

Next up were pistols.

They loaded Glock pistols on their right waist and left legs, having mentally calculated the number of rounds that they would need for this training session.

Kang Chan didn’t expect that he would be using a bayonet today. He picked up the bladed weapon and drew it from its sheath.

The blade wasn’t sharp, which was to be expected. However, Kang Chan still had to arm himself with it. Hence, he hung the bayonet on his right leg.

After attaching six rifle magazines and three pistol magazines to his body, an officer walked over to approach him.

The officer used a machine that looked like an inspection device to confirm the weapons that Kang Chan was armed with. Afterward, he handed Kang Chan a card the size of a business card, which the machine had produced.

“Please insert it into the device in your left pocket,” the officer said.

Kang Chan didn’t know that his garment included the device the officer was talking about. When he looked inside the left pocket of his upper attire, he found a device which he could insert the card into. When he did, the device let out a click, and all the equipment that he was wearing let out mechanical beeping sounds.

Meanwhile, the officer checked everyone’s weapons with the tool and handed them cards. The entire process took about twenty minutes.

“The guns produce sound and recoils that are nearly the same as real guns. If someone is killed by a gun, grenade, or bayonet, it will be recorded on the main computer. Moreover, the beeping sound that you heard when the cards were inserted into your devices will begin to ring again. Whenever a grenade explodes, the devices of any nearby soldiers will detect it and notify them of injuries and deaths,” the officer explained.

Technology had truly made remarkable advancements.

Kang Chan nodded.

“Now, then. We’ll be heading to the training area,” added the officer.

While Kang Chan’s party was divided up among the jeeps, the soldiers got into the backs of the trucks.

One could easily tell another person’s ability based on their posture and attitude when they handle weapons. Consequently, the soldiers had quite a curious look in their eyes as they looked at Kang Chan and climbed into the vehicles.

They traveled around back for about a hundred meters on the rough mountain terrain, eventually reaching a plain surrounded by mountains. Surprisingly, there were buildings throughout the area.

When Kang Chan dropped off the jeep, he felt as if he had just gotten off a bus in the middle of a city.

“It was modeled exactly after a certain district in Seoul. I will be on the fifth floor of the stock firm building up ahead. Just like the real thing, the interior of the building is composed of elevators, stairs, and offices,” Choi Seong-Geon explained with a proud expression and tone. “Since it is currently fifteen hundred and fifty hours, we will begin when the signal sounds at sixteen hundred and ten hours. Keep in mind that a preemptive attack can be launched from our side as well.”

Afterward, Choi Seong-Geon saluted Kim Tae-Jin and immediately headed toward the stock firm building.

The operation would begin in twenty minutes. Choi Seong-Geon intentionally did not give Kang Chan a map of the city. Kang Chan debated whether or not he should ask him for one, but he decided against it.

Of course, that didn’t mean that he shouldn’t make an effort to survey their surrounding buildings. Kang Chan looked at a nearby three-story building.

“Let’s go up there for now,” he said.

Everyone with him understood the intent behind his strategy, so they all followed Kang Chan up to the rooftop of the three-story building that he had set as his initial target location.

The miniature city was a lot larger in scale than Kang Chan had expected. The buildings were densely packed within a hundred-meter radius centered around the five-story stock firm building, giving the feeling of being on a movie set.

“Seok Kang-Ho, Choi Jong-Il. You two will be in Team Two,” Kang Chan announced.

Seok Kang-Ho and Choi Jong-Il nodded in response.

“Director Kim, please take charge of Lee Doo-Hee and the sniper team,” Kang Chan spoke again.

“Understood,” Kim Tae-Jin replied.

“Mr. Suh Sang-Hyung and Woo Hee-Seung will be in Team Three.”

The two men also acknowledged Kang Chan’s orders with a nod.

“When you want to speak to me over the radio, refer to me as Team One.”

“What’s the plan?” Kim Tae-Jin asked as he glanced around their surroundings. He then turned his gaze back to Kang Chan.

“It’s simple, really. Imagine the situation is switched around and that we are the defending side. They will most definitely come out to capture us as soon as the signal sounds,” Kang Chan said.

“Hmm,” Kim Tae-Jin sighed contemplatively, then nodded.

“You will be our side’s target, Mr. Kim. ” Kang Chan said, then turned to Lee Doo-Hee and called him.

“Yes, sir,” Lee Doo-Hee replied.

“The defending side will no doubt position snipers on the rooftop of the five-story building over there. If you spot a window of opportunity and it seems doable, take them out. This is where the victors of the first round will be decided. Even if it’s hard to shoot them, try to attract their attention as much as you can.”

“Understood,” Lee Doo-Hee said.

“Mr. Suh Sang Hyun and Woo Hee-Seung, block the entrance of the building as best as you can to protect our target,” Kang Chan gave orders again.

“Then my role is to stay in here?” Kim Tae-Jin asked.

“Yes, sir. Please draw the attention of the enemies from here,” Kang Chan replied.

“Got it,” Kim Tae-Jin said with a nod.

Kang Chan turned to Seok Kang-Ho.

“Guerrilla warfare, remember?” Kang Chan asked.

“Got it, Cap,” Seok Kang-Ho replied.

“Cover me as I infiltrate the building,” Kang Chan ordered Seok Kang-Ho.

“Are you planning to go in immediately?” Kim Tae-Jin questioned incredulously.

Kang Chan’s only response was a mischievous smile.

“Cha Dong-Gyun!” Choi Seong-Geon shouted.

“Yes, General,” Cha Dong-Gyun replied sharply.

“You lead the squad and go out. Make sure you show that rude little kid the power of the Third Airborne Forces,” Choi Seong-Geon ordered.

“Understood, sir.”

“Kwak Cheol-Ho,” Choi Seong-Geon called next.

“Yes, sir!” Kwak Cheol-Ho replied robustly.

“You will be in charge of Unit 606 and the special team. Position snipers on the rooftop and move separately from Cha Dong-Gyun. Once you’re outside, eliminate as many enemies as quickly as you can,” Choi Seong-Geon ordered again.

“Understood, sir,” Kwak Cheol-Ho responded.

‘The rest of you, stand guard on each floor,” Choi Seong-Geon gave his final command.

“Yes, sir,” the soldiers replied.

Choi Seong-Geon sat on the couch in the stock firm and looked outside the window.

“Ha! How fucking ridiculous!”Choi Seong-Geon exclaimed, feeling a mixture of astonishment and frustration. “A high school kid and a physical education teacher? And they’re even classified government secrets? Hahaha!”

Choi Seong-Geon shook his head and gritted his teeth. Just then, his aide put a laptop next to the table for him. In it were columns with card numbers and names. The columns were divided into categories of alive, dead, and injured. At the very bottom marked down the total number of soldiers.

So far, all of the soldiers had a green light under the alive section.

“Is this the button?” Choi Seong-Geon asked.

“Yes, sir,” his aide replied.

Choi Seong-Geon pressed the button that was marked with a single “S.” As soon as he did, the siren bells in the vicinity began to blare three consecutive times.

“Ridiculous. I just don’t believe it,” Choi Seong-Geon said cynically.

After pressing the button, he let out a dubious laugh, seemingly finding the situation absurd.

***

Sirens rang throughout the entire miniature city. Lee Doo-Hee positioned himself behind the entrance of the rooftop in a way that allowed him to stay out of sight while still having his rifle aimed at the five-story stock firm building. Behind him, Kim Tae-Jin, Suh Sang-Hyung, and Woo Hee-Seung pressed against the wall of the rooftop in a triangle formation.

“Is it really going to be okay for us to stay like this?” Suh Sang-Hyun asked worriedly.

Kim Tae-Jin gave Suh Sang-Hyun a look as if asking what he meant.

“The enemy has fifty-two defending soldiers,” Suh Sang-Hyun said.

“Who is our commander?” Kim Tae-Jin asked firmly.

“Well, that’s…” Suh Sang-Hyun trailed off.

“Do you really not know why Kang Chan included you and me here?” Kim Tae-Jin asked.

“Honestly, I’m not sure,” Suh Sang-Hyun replied with uncertainty. He genuinely didn’t seem to have a clue.

“Quite a ruckus went down today,” Kim Tae-Jin said.

Kim Tae-Jin quickly scanned the surrounding buildings, then briefly glanced at Suh Sang-Hyun.

“Apparently, Section Chief and Hyung-Jung gave Choi Seong-Geon a harsh scolding,” he added.

“They did? Why would they do that?” Suh Sang-Hyun asked in surprise.

“Kang Chan included us in this fight against fifty-two soldiers out of sheer consideration for Mr. Jeon and Kim Hyung-Jung. He probably wanted to prove to everyone that their judgment wasn’t wrong,” Kim Tae-Jin mused.

Suh Sang-Hyun turned his head as far as he could to check on their allies, then turned back to Kim Tae-Jin.

“Did Kang Chan actually say that?” Suh Sang-Hyun asked doubtfully.

“Do you really think Kang Chan would go around saying such mushy things?” Kim Tae-Jin said cynically as if he couldn’t believe that Suh Sang-Hyun would even ask such a thing.

Just then, two rounds from what sounded like they were from Daewoo Telecom K7s rang out consecutively.

Kim Tae-Jin and Suh Sang-Hyun quickly looked around, but nothing came into view.

Beep. Beep.

“Huh? What’s going on?” Choi Seong-Geon asked, confused.

Choi Seong-Geon leaned forward so much that it seemed as if he was sticking his face into the laptop. Red lights appeared under the dead column. The total number of soldiers that were still alive decreased to fifty.

Choi Seong-Geon numbly stared at the laptop monitor. It didn’t take long for three more beeping sounds to echo out. The number of soldiers marked dead with the red light increased.

For the first time today, Choi Seong-Geon looked shocked. His eyes widened as he looked outside the window. However…

Beep. Beep.?

More deaths appeared on the monitor.

“Did they all line up so the enemy can shoot them all down with ease? Radio Cha Dong-Gyun right now!” Choi Seong-Geon bellowed as he turned to his aide.

Beep.?

“Hey! I told you to get in contact with Cha Dong-Gyun!” Choi Seong-Geon shouted again.

“General Choi, First Lieutenant Cha Dong-Gyun is already dead,” the aide replied. The aide's stunned expression showed that even he had gone blank due to the shock.
