Basement Situation Room in the West Wing of the White House, Washington, DC, USA during rush hour.
Robert Anderson’s pupils shook as he listened to radio calls outside Moscow, Russia.
“… … !”
It was because of the words on the radio transmitted in real time.
self-destruction immediately.
That was also what Kang-tae said, which meant that he would escape alone.
Of course, it was a word that could only come out in the worst situation.
This is because under normal circumstances, a team of six people must travel together, and it was because it was so difficult to come out alone.
It was impossible to utilize the main specialties of each team member, and even a simple four-week boundary was impossible, and on-site judgment and response skills were inevitably poor.

Literally on my own, because I had to come out alone.
Soon Robert quickly checked the map on the screen.
The location of allies and enemies approaching.
And it was to figure out the roads and geographical features of Moscow again.
However, no matter how hard I tried, no solution came out.
If time was delayed, the probability of encountering the enemy was very high, and it was obvious that a gunfight would occur in the process.
As Kang-tae said, the team members had to leave first, and Kang-tae, who would be left alone, had no choice but to leave on his own.
Kang Tae’s voice was heard behind Harry’s panicked voice.
– Please reply if there is an alternative.
It didn’t sound like something I said to Harry.
It sounded like something he said to Jake, himself, and everyone else involved.
As the situation is urgent, it seems to be asking for instructions.
But Robert couldn’t give a clear answer either.
Because Kang Tae’s judgment was correct.
After thinking about this for a moment, Robert said.
“Allow Charlie to evacuate on his own, and have everyone else move to the reserve rendezvous point.”
“All right.”
It was time for the communications officer to repeat the words.
“I heard that the current situation is no different from a roller coaster.”
With a heavy voice, Thomas, the Secretary of Defense, appeared.
With several staff members.
“Minister!”
Surprised Robert looked up.
Because the operation took so long, both the president and the secretary of defense, Thomas, were absent.
Robert was also in command from the basement situation room in the West Wing of the White House for security and quick reporting of this operation.
Moreover, Thomas had a busy schedule, so it was difficult to come today.
If you come, stop by for a short time at night.
However, he came inside, and there was another person behind him.
“Wait, Mr. President!”
“I brought you. Because the situation is so urgent and important.”
Thomas said a greeting on behalf of the president, then found a seat and sat down.
The president, too, found the seat of honor and sat down, and began to listen in detail to his aides about the situation.
While Robert is watching.
Thomas, who had been continuously receiving reports on the situation, spoke first.
“Did you also order self-discharge?”
“Yes, Lee suggested it, and I had no other options.”
“I understand, the situation was f*cked up… … .”
Thomas shook his head and looked away.
From nob le mt l dot com
Like looking for someone in charge.
“How many people are waiting? Are you ready to move?”
“The helicopter is warming up for takeoff, and the vehicle is ready for departure.”
“What is the route to the preliminary assembly point?”
“All of the task force ops teams have just moved.”
A concise answer came out, but Thomas’ impression was suddenly crumpled.
And the voice came out harshly.
“Who asked that? Do you know if it’s safe or not?! Shouldn’t I have to answer if there was anything that could be filtered from Sigint (signal information)?! Do you see the current situation as the original plan?!”
Thomas raised his voice.
It was because it was difficult to see it as a coincidence that the situation had deteriorated enough that Kang-tae had to leave on his own.
There must have been a plan prepared in advance, or something that could have been dealt with.
Maybe internal secret leaks or espionage and so on.
In particular, it could not be ruled out that information flowed into Moscow as it passed through Ukraine and Belarus, which are close to Russia.
Otherwise, it was difficult for things to get this bad.
A staggering answer came soon after.
“… sorry. We’re currently checking that out, but it’s expected to take some time.”
“Consumed? how much?”
“That’s exactly… After the operation is over, the infiltration process… … .”
Thomas shook his head at the officer’s reply.
“Do you think I just meant to reveal a causal relationship?”
“yes… … ?”
“That cause may affect the current situation. If there’s a f*cking spy, and information is leaking out through it… Will it not affect the operation until it is over?”
“ah… sorry.”
“Use whatever is available at the Ministry of Defense. It’s an order, okay?”
Thomas said forcefully.
It was because if you made a mistake, you could lose Kangtae.
Above all, Thomas was the person who agreed with this operation and supported Kang-tae’s involvement.
Not only was he able to see his ability once again, but he was also able to overcome the variables and risks sufficiently, so he actively supported the passage of the Senate.
Above all, it was a rare opportunity to cut off the limbs of the terrorist Pikal.
I wasn’t sure when a day like this would come again.
A similar moment may come, but then there might have been a world war.
Above all, it was a target that had to be eliminated as quickly as possible.
Because Pikal was the person who caused the war between Russia and China, and Jurgen was Pikal’s right-hand man.
Of course, I don’t know how many limbs there are behind me, but I couldn’t just leave them alone because they were my closest friends.
I had to remove it now.
That’s why I also helped to convince the president.
I guaranteed Kang Tae’s ability.
And Thomas wasn’t wrong.
I was able to see Kang Tae’s ability once again, because at the same time he overcame the variables.
By sniping right from the tree.
So until just before that, Thomas was delighted.
It was difficult to fix the gun or aim at the suddenly climbed tree, but Kang-tae didn’t care and fired right away.
For that reason, Kang-tae was blissful while dreaming of the day he would join the U.S. Army.
However, the situation changed so quickly.
“Have the helicopter take off as soon as it is ready, and radio it directly to Jake Russell.”
“All right!”
Thomas orders, and the officer answers.
In the meantime, the president, who had heard all about the current situation, also raised his voice heavily.
“… Now we have to contact the Russian ambassador. Send a message to the Secretary of State, and call the CIA Director here.”
“I understand, Mr. President.”
Around the time the staff standing behind moved.
Soon Jake’s voice came through.
– TF 348, this is Charlie.
The task force number created for this operation and Jake’s dirty words came across.
At the same time, Thomas opened his mouth.
“This is a hotel, go to the 31st assembly point instead of the 02 assembly, use the Dvock vehicle to move, and board the helicopter at the coordinates we will send you.”
– Charlie, good reception.
It was when Jake answered and the intelligence officer gave the coordinates.
– Hotel, Alpha… Please confirm your joining plan.
The horse came across with the sound of Jake’s breathing.
But it was difficult to answer easily.
“… … .”
Thomas hesitated, and Robert chewed his lips too.
It was a risky operation in the first place, but it was because the current situation was difficult to predict.
Due to the sudden entry, the training was lacking.
However, the most problematic thing before training or prediction was the possibility that the information was leaked and the possibility of using it to attack the task force, including Kang Tae.
In the worst case, even this fact could be slipping away.
I had already been beaten by Walter Grayson and Norman Jones, so I couldn’t help but pay attention to that.
That made everyone even more afraid.
Even after extensive audits and tweaks to the confidentiality management system, I couldn’t relax.
Because there was no way to find out the practitioner’s inner thoughts unless they were drugged or tortured.
For that reason, it was time for the atmosphere in the underground situation room to become tense.
“We will definitely rescue him. Don’t worry, I wish you all the best in getting out.”
The president opened his mouth, and then another person entered the situation room.
He was the director of the CIA.
Thomas quickly gestured to stop the radio, and the director, who had noticed, opened his mouth.
“… Do we need to redefine our exit plan? By using our agents?”
He had already been informed and knew.
The CIA intelligence network was also activated for this operation, and it was reported directly to the president.
Soon after, the president opened his mouth.
“That’s right. Can you set it up right away? Are there agents on standby?”
“As you said, some agents are on standby… It is difficult to assist the expulsion in the region because it is a simple support name.”
“Then how long will it take to create a new operation?”
“It’s hard to give you a definite answer, but I’ll prepare it in the next four hours. In addition to the eviction operation… We will take into account the hostage exchange plan and prepare for it.”
At that, Robert’s eyebrows twitched.
‘A hostage exchange… … .’
It was quite unlucky to say it, but I couldn’t get my temper out of it.
It was because I hadn’t thought that things would go this far when I was conceiving the strategy.
December 24, the day of the operation, was the day China invaded Taiwan, and Russia also had no time to prepare for war, and both the president and the defense minister were too busy to come to the situation room, so it was a perfect day in a way.
It was good for cheating, and it was good enough to cover up or cover up the situation when it happened.
And the plan wasn’t bad either.
The exit process was not easy as it was near Moscow, but it was because I always lived with such risks and variables.
Above all, Kangtae was a great man to solve all of them.
I didn’t put it into action for nothing.
Kang-tae was the one who succeeded dozens of times in the simulation results already run by the upper management.
They succeeded in sniping more than 4 km more than dozens of times, and escaped safely using various assembly points and exit routes.
There was no scenario of death or captivity in the process.
Even if thousands of troops were openly moving in the first place, if they were at the existing point, Kang-tae could have been expelled together.
There was quite a bit of preparation.
The problem was that it only narrowed the distance to the target to 1.4 km and became distant from the allies.
Of course, that didn’t mean I would react negatively.
Both Jake at the scene and himself in the control room all agreed, and Kang-tae completed the mission successfully.
All that was left was to exit.
Whether the CIA bullsh*t or not, there was nothing wrong with helping.
By the time you think about it
Robert opened his mouth.
“First of all, we will continue to communicate with you by confirming and informing you of a safe route… Dvok and tell me all the beat positions.”
“All right.”
I passed some information like that, but Kang Tae’s voice came across.
– How about going directly to the 31st assembly point, please check.
“… … ?!”
Everyone in the control room flinched.
Kang-tae’s going to the 31st assembly point was because he meant to move through the enemy.
Even against thousands of people.
Of course, I had to say no, but Thomas, who was giving the order, and Robert, my immediate supervisor, couldn’t say it easily either.
It was because Kang Tae seemed to be able to do it.
