Brrr...rrrr*

The noise from the M1A3 Abrams tank's track rumbling around the street of Oured in darkness,it has been four days since the 398th Armored Brigade arrived at the suburb of the capital.Four days waiting at the outside of the city,watching the Space Elevator and Bright Hill from afar through a binoculars.Day should pass like that for the next month,at least they thought so,but tonight an urgent order was given to commander Watson:

"All personnel,pack your belonging,we've received order to move,prepare for urban combat at anytime,I've received the transmission from the Supreme Commander,better be ready"

"How about civilians?"

"Keep moving,we don't have to care about them unless they pose any threat"

The closer they are to the city center,the more civilians come out from their house to see the pass by,and therefore,the more time it takes for them to move.

Started from less than a dozen when they first step onto the utmost district,by the time they arrive near the city center and Oured port,where the Space Elevator stood,more and more civilians coming from their house to watch as the tanks moving.Although almost all of them ran away by the moment the tanks approach them,nevertheless,it's still slowed down their movement:

<<Don't let any dweller come close to our vehicles>>

The Abrams continued their march toward the capital with guns pointed backward.

<<Watson calling Murphy,can you hear me?>>

<<Loud and clear,how me?>>

<<Loud and clear>>

Above the city,seven CH-47,along with five Apache and a pair of AH-1 are approaching Bright Hill at a rapid speed,each cargo heli carrying over thirty well fit marine units heading directly toward Bright Hill,ready for a quick capitulation.On the ground,the Osean Air Defense has already detected their movement and ready for countermeasure,but as soon as they realized that the helicopters were their allies:

<<Harley calling in.Hey Murphy,you should've warned us first,I almost fire upon your unit>>

<<Sorry,but Johnson asked us not to inform you,beside,it seemed like your district clear,we would consider sending another unit there for back up plan>>

From the view on the front most AH-64,Brigadier General Matthew Murphy,the commander of Osean 47th Airborne Brigade gaze his eyes under the city down below.On the highway connected between Redmill and Oured,main battle tanks from Watson' 398th,with guns pointing backward,are coming in the intended combat position,Oured District 1.

At the otherside of the city,Oured District 3,Osean Air Defense Battalion number 37th,under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Thames Harley is withdrawing their weapon away from his units.Instead,a pair of incoming ADF-01 were chosen as the new target.

<<What the f-ck Harley?It's us,Hildegard and Erich,if you might know>>

<<Ah dammit,sorry>>

On the radar of Murphy' helicopter,two ADF-01s,one red one blue,operated by two Belkan originated pilots,after a long journey from the aircraft carrier Gowk,have entered the airspace of Oured District 4:

<<Lavendel 1 calling Lavendel 2,no sign of bogey.I repeat,no sign of bogey,no Arsenal Bird Liberty in sight,clear>>-the Falken at the front slow down for his wingman to catch up-<<Reconnaissance unit Lavendel report,Oured sky is clear for operation>>

<<Aye,relax,it doesn't look like that we're at war or something,and although we're preparing for one,that isn't going to happen anytime soon>>
