C&C: Fall of Soviet, Rise of NOD

Prologue

In 1946, just one year after the dreadful World War 2 which ended in the death of more than 500 million people and countless more who became homeless, a man named Albert Einstein created a device called the Chronosphere. The Chronosphere was known as a time traveling machine that the user was able to go back to the past or sail to the future. Einstein's main intention was to rewrite the history as he went back to the time before Adolf Hitler took power of Germany and secretly assassinated him to prevent Second World War, thus the lives of millions of Jews were saved. As he traveled back to 1926, at Nuremberg, Germany; Einstein met the future Fuhrer of the Third Reich. At the greeting, the historical handshake between the two men allowed Hitler to be successfully removed out of the time. Thus to Einstein's predication, without Hitler, a weak Germany laid to the west and World War 2 never happened. But what Einstein didn't put into account was that his actions had upset the delicacy balance of Europe. Without Hitler, Joseph Stalin's communist Russia was an infinitively bigger threat to the entire continent. Stalin had also realized the situation as he could take the entire Europe in a few short months with the Soviet Union's military strength. He started a massive full-scale invasion across the Europe. France, Germany, Poland, Italy, Romania and Spain were over run by the Russians in few days and England seemed to be the last free nation in the entire Europe. Only with the combined strength of European nations and their superior technology allowed them to defeat Communist Russia. With Stalin's death and collapsing of Russia's military, Alexander Romanov was elected as the new Premier of Russia. In eyes of other European leaders, Romanov was an advocate of peace but in depth, Romanov burnt with hatred against the Allies for destroying Mother Russia. He silently vowed that Russia will revenge, and this time it's not only with a massive military force but also with superior technologies. Since Yuri became Romanov's chief military adviser, things deteriorated. All the in country secretly agents lost contacts with outside and some even collaborated with the KGB operatives. The only logical solution was that Yuri and his psychic corps was behind all of these mystery events. US spy satellites had also spotted strange activity in Russia; wicked technologies were seen being developed and experimented. Intel source had also reported that Russia's military was at an unusual inclining rate. Things were not going well a war against the Soviet Union seemed to be imminent.

Introduction: A New World Order (Part one)

It was another humid day in Washington D.C. A cloudless blue sky with little wind from North blew across the streets of the nation's capital. The scorching sun blazed down to Earth and made every corner of the capital as bright as a flare. There was barely anybody on the street because of the hot weather. Many people just stayed at home with their air condition turned to full power. Also with a can of cool drink in hand and TV turned on, they just sat back and enjoyed the XFL. Everyone seemed to be living comfortably with nothing to worry, however…

* * *

Meanwhile in the Whitehouse.

President Michael Dugan flipped over another page of endless waves of documents and signed without reading through. Although all the document were top-secret stuff but having an endless waves of them was another story. Time went by like wind, several hours passed like several minutes and yet the documents to be sign on President Dugan's desk is still piled up like a mountain. Finally he broke out.

"That's it, I can't take it any more." Dugan let the pen dropped on the table and laid back on his expensive Italian leather armchair and took a long yawn. Five minutes later President Dugan reached for the answering machine and pressed the red button to dial the secretary.

"Miss Anderson, could you come in for a moment please." Dugan said. Few seconds later the door of the President's chamber opened with a swoosh, the secretary came in. Mrs. Anderson had been the president secretary for a long time now, four year or maybe more. She was already a secretary before Dugan was a president. She had been a very faith person never gave president the eye and certainly not going to. She wasn't very prettily dressed but her natural beauty kept all of the opposite sex uneasy for the time she walked along the corridor.

"Good morning Mr. President, what can I do for you today?" Follow with a smile.

"Oh, you know the usual, sign all these documents for me." Dugan said with a big yawn. "By the way, don't let anybody come, you are the president for the moment, I will… I will get some sleep now." Another yawn.

"No problem, Mr. President, I just do that" Mrs. Anderson smiled again and left the chamber.

Dugan was about to shut his eye for a good nap when answer machine interrupted him.

"Mr. President, it General Carville on line one." A female voice said.

Dugan picked up the picked phone to answer it.

In the Philadelphia Command Center

It was a very big place for a command center, there were columns upon columns of the latest super computer with the best accessories. Before each computer there was an operator who was typing in an inhuman speed. In the back of the command center three strategists were looking at a big satellite radar screen showing the location of the current units. On the big radar screen, there were overwhelming numbers of red dots coming from all direction toward America.

Before the screen stood General Ben Carville. He was a big man and was in his 50's, with no single hair and always had a toothpick in his mouth. Although the command center was fully air-conditioned but he was still sweating.

"Mr. President we got hack-a situation down here." General Carville was heavily Texas accented just like George Bush.

"How bad can it be man?" Dugan asked.

"According to NORAD, we got massive soviet naval force coming from the east, air force from west and ground force pushing up from Mexico. I don't know how they snuck on this." Carville reported.

"You better double check on this, it doesn't make any sense, I'll call the premier." Dugan was not much less confused then everybody else.

"Will do." General Carville hanged up.

At the Kremlin, Moscow

Inside the hall of reds, there were statue of all the most famous figure of the Soviet Union. Joseph Stalin, Carl Marx, Lenning … but the most important of all there was a big golden star covering the entire section of a wall. Red covered pretty much everywhere inside the Kremlin. The carpet was bloody red; walls were pretty much red with all the badges, flags and pictures. Ceilings were paint with red and hanged with big hammer-sickle symbols. The inside of the Kremlin looked pretty much like the interior of a whale.

Premier Romanov was sitting in his table enjoying his delicious meal and sipping the Vienna coffee while Yuri stood beside him and looking at the outside.

"Comrade Yuri, this invasion has gone very successful so far?" Romanov was heavily Russian accented "The American was taken completely by surprise."

"Indeed they have." Yuri's voice was little more than a whisper but it's filled with energy and evilry.

"To my calculation, America should be down in two weeks time." Yuri said.

"Oh you think so." Romanov was curious.

"General Vladimir is leading our spearhead of 50 groups of Type A shock armies, that's approximately 500 000 of your elite blackguard force. Best trained with best equipped. Grand Marshal Alysenkonov is leading the bulk of the force that involve 180 Type C force, 60 Type MT force, 30 Type HT force, 50 Type M force, 15 Type HM force and 10 Type P force. A mere estimate will be 1.8 million conscripts, 600 000 medium infantries, 300 000 heavy infantries, 450 000 vehicles, 150 000 heavy vehicles and 100 000 of mine psychic force. In air we have about 20 fleets of Kirovs and 100 squadrons of Migs. That's about 20 000 airs ships and 100 000 Migs. We also rule the sea. We have approximately 20 000 mini and typhoon submarine and 5 000 Okatober subs on eastern cost and about the same in the western cost. We have well over 20 000 sea scorpions. And we have around 10 000 Dreadnaught. My new invention of the mind controlled squids should be sneaky enough get information on other powerful navy countries."

"What about the forces on the western front." Romanov asked, and took another sip of the coffee.

"Comrade premier, Germany so far is the only country that have any true resistances. But they shall be crushed in no longer than 3 days." Yuri reported.

"What about England and France."

"Comrade, the British have trouble landing their force on the Europe continent. I am sure Admiral Bendokoshyov's submarine fleet can make a pretty good blockade on England, our Kirov fleet should be able to cripple England without any ground force." Yuri turned around and sat on a chair in front of Romanov. "Comrade, I don't think you should need to worry anything about the French. Our intelligence source reported they haven't even realized the war. Most of their forces still are on holidays."

"Good, very good comrade Yuri. You have provided to be a very useful person. What a treat you are to our enemies." Romanov complemented.

"I'm just another servant to the Soviet Union like you…"

Yuri was interrupted by phone call and Romanov answered it.

"Ya, premier Romanov here."

"What's going on there Alex." It was Dugan's calm voice Romanov realized, about time.

"Why, this is Mr. President, I don't know what you mean." Romanov pretended he knew nothing.

"My report says you are throwing everything you got at us. We suppose to be allies you maniac." Dugan's voice was now stronger.

"Listen very carefully Mr. President, I'm not you puppet. It is our Romanov legacy to consider everything we do." Romanov said.

"I don't give a damn on what's so ever about you legacy, call them off, call them off now." Dugan shouted.

After a long brief of pause Dugan spoke again. "You know we will retaliate." Dugan's voice was back to normal again.

"Don't be so sure Mr. President." Romanov hanged the phone and gave a nod to Yuri.

Yuri picked up his psychic phone and dialed the number to the Dallas Missile Command.

Back in the White House

Dugan was very worried now; he paced back and forth, forth and back in the room and finally made up his mind. Dugan picked up the phone and rang Philadelphia center to call general Carville.

Philadelphia Command Center

The phone rang and Carville ran to get it. It was quite unusual for him to run.

"Mr. President." Carville answered.

"It's time we hit back, make it happen." The president ordered.

"Yeah sir." Carville took the order and rang the Missile Command.

Dallas Missile Command

The speaker was loud enough so everyone inside the place can hear it clearly.

"This is General Carville, Soviet invasion confirmed launch alpha, delta charges." Carville ordered.

* * *

With order given the two operators started working as fast as they could. Sergeant Black pressed a few button. "Password confirmed, missile prime."

Lieutenant James quickly walked up to the switch, inserted the key and twisted it to arm the missile.

"Missile armed." Black reported.

The phone suddenly rang and James went to answer it.

"Missile Command." James said. A weird sound appeared in the phone and James was frozen so sudden like a zombie. He felt something had grasped his brain and it was starting to mess up his conscience.

"Ten seconds til launch, open the silo door." Black reported.

Because Lieutenant James was mind controlled by Yuri's mystery phone call, he had lost control of himself. He pulled out his Colt .45 and aimed at Black.

Black stared back in disbelieves. "James what are you doing, the silo doors are closed, this is suicide."

Without a second word James opened fire in point blank range. Two shot right in the head of Black ended his life. Without hesitation James aimed the gun at his own head and fired.

From afar, the ground around above the Missile Command rumbled and Silo hatch bulged upwards by the massive force underneath. In a few short seconds the Dallas Missile Command turned into apocalyptic wreckage. A big mushroom rose insanely high above the ground and the radioactive dust plus other substances fell onto the ground.

Back In Kremlin

"Is it done Yuri." Romanov asked the mystery Yuri.

"No comrade premier, it has only begin." Yuri's sinister voice replied.

New World Order: Part Two

Without nuclear capability, the Americans became sitting ducks without support. US were taken totally by surprise along with its European neighbors. The Americans were unbelievably outnumbered in air, ground and sea. In the first two hours of war, majority coastal cities crumbled under the Soviet naval bombardment. The Kirov fleet decimated the many of inner cities. Columns after columns of Soviet super tanks chopped up the feeble American amour. While endless waves of light, medium and heavy infantries took over city after city. Vladimir's spearhead force rampaged through America like a bulldog on a Texas Romeo. At the end of the first day, all US cities were hit and majority were either destroyed or taken over.

New York

Above the city of New York, the busiest city in the world. A large fleet of Kirov air ships flew slowly into the city. The Kirov airships were huge, if not massive. It's oval in shape, with the head painted as the shark's mouth. There was a big control center hang on its belly and also the big hammer-sickle on each side of the zeppelin. Shadows were cast upon on all building underneath, including the Statue of Liberty. Alarm siren went off and all citizens were ordered to go under the subway train station as a form of bomb shelter. A fleet of Soviet Dreadnaughts came into the lake and entered the city. Then a rumble sound came from afar, soviet ground force have pushed into New York.

Los Angels

Although it was a sunny day but with giant zeppelin hovering in the sky, half of the city was shadowed. Until all the tanks and troops have passed the gold Gate Bridge, Admiral Alysenkonov's naval fleet arrived. His black super battleship Stalin III led the charge; it was surrounded by Dreadnaughts, Sea Scorpions and Elite class Okatober submarines.

Stalin III was arguably the biggest ship ever built, it's a lot bigger than a Carrier and had a lot more and better armaments than any of the latest warships. Its armour was supering extensive. It's nearly invincible to any forms of attack, whether it's from air, ground or sea. Only a nuke can destroy it. Because of its huge size and weight it required three nuclear reactors to run it, one for power, one for its massive plasma batteries and one for reserve.

The Stalin III was now very close to the Golden Bridge, most of her guards had already passed underneath the bridge, even the Carrier sized Dreadnaughts. Stalin III looked as if she was going to struggle to get under, without hesitation its plasma battery open fire on the bridge. All four shot hit the bridge, each shot was divided by the ship's computer system so four shots were evenly divided. There was no single debris; the entire bridge was vaporized by the battleship's purple plasma shots. Without the bridge in sight, Marshal Alysenkonov felt a lot better and sailed pass.

On Europe continent

Berlin, Germany

The Soviet came ever closer to the capital of Germany. Although Germany had the finest fighting force in the world but against overwhelming and superior trained Soviet war machines was different. So far only Germany had lasted more than 40 hours of intensive battle against the Russians on the Europe continent.

All buildings were garrisoned with troops; heavy weaponries were also place in hidden places all around the city. The Germans were ready to fight to the last man.

You could tell the Soviet were getting closer to the city as the sound of tank engine and the rumbling sound of the ground was getting louder. The frequency of gunfire, explosions and screams were increasing by the minute.

The Tank Destroyer opened fire at the first visible Rhino tank. It was a direct hit, the tank turret exploded in a beautiful splash but not so beautiful for its occupants. More Rhinos rushed in and Tank Destroyers were even more fanatic in firing at them. Leopold IIIs engaged in a close combat fight. Although Leopolds were given an edge over the Rhinos but the Rhinos just simply outnumbered the German tanks and the Apocalypse tank was yet to come.

Paris, France

Although it was a beautiful day in Paris but it certainly wasn't a beautiful sight. The ear splitting sound of the French grand cannon was very common for the past 6 hours. Citizens were ordered to go to the underground shelter in case of the Kirov airship bombardments, but what they don't know is that the Kirovs are also armed with payloads of piercing bombs.

The Soviet troops were all given the order by their high command of not to damage any famous monument. No form of any heavy weaponry approached sites such as the Eiffel Tower, the Notre Dame and the Cathedral; only infantries went in to occupy the site.

Soviet air force attacked with precision and care, not daring to damage any historical monuments, they knew serious consequence would be followed if anything went wrong. Kirovs pin point bombed big military targets such as building, power plants and Grand cannons. The Mig fighters aimed at choke point place, like the garrisoned buildings, pillboxes etc.

The urban war in Paris is a lot harder than in Berlin because of all those restrictions of things that are not to be damaged. Although the French were not as fanatic as the Germans but they were very well entrenched, thus infantry movements were harder than usual.

A regiment of engineers and tesla troops were para-dropped around the Eiffel Tower. Once landed they immediately started to work. The engineers set up the power plants to charge up the Tower while the tesla troops charged up the power plants. A few minutes after the successful completion, the Eiffel Tower had been turned into a massive lightening bolt and it's able to struck anywhere around the city.

London, England

The sky above London was filled with fighters. The RAF fighters fought tenaciously against the oncoming waves of Mig Alleys and several fleets of Kirov airships.

On the ground AA-missile launchers targeted one enemy fighter to another. The missiles were quiet effective in shooting down fighter but Kirovs were nearly impossible to be significantly damaged.

The RAFs fighters were totally outnumbered, out skilled and out maneuvered. Barely any RAF fighters gotten close to the Airships. Some did however, but that was the best they could do before been blown out of the sky by mini robotic controlled interceptors and hidden guns on the Kirovs. With near total air superiority, the Kirovs started to unload barrages of bombs on the city.

* * *

Russian submarines and Dreadnaught fleet also hit the English pretty hard on the sea. DX-452 mini submarine managed successful hit and run assaults on British war ships in the harbor. The Typhoon attack subs were making good result in naval engagement against any other warship on the open sea. Russian submarines had not only got the best subs but also subs that were capable of hitting ground target.

The Okatober submarines were as good and powerful as any other warship and yet it's capable of submerge and reemerge somewhere else. Its big cluster missile flew over costal defenses and into the city itself. 100 feet off the ground the missile exploded into hundreds of cluster bombs and caused tremendous large area of explosion. Although these costal attacks were mostly nuisance raids and won't cause much of lethal punch but that should keep the English busy for a long, long time.

Admiral Bendokoshyov smiled at the current siege on the English coast. He observed his fleet's performance through the observation tower of his command ship, Dasadania. The big +3 Dreadnaught was also firing off some of its own Tsar missiles, but that was just something for fun by his crews. He silently calculated that Mother Russia was only hours away from total Europe victory.

Chapter 1: Lone Guardian

The Americans were on their knees. One bloody blow after another by the invincible Soviets, majority of the US city were under siege. New York was as worse as all other cities but Manhattan looked to be the best place yet in US. The Russian troops had not yet fully penetrated the defenses around Manhattan, that meant Fort Bradley was still intact.

On the Blackhawk helicopter

Agent Tanya Adams was analyzing the current tactical map of Manhattan with a bunch of other naval seals. Although she wasn't the expert in those jobs done by Generals but currently America was short on leaders so anyone who had any leadership experience will be welcome.

Tanya had been in the special force for a long time, she was a member of the elite commando since 19, that was the time against Stalin and now Romanov was the newer enemy. Tanya had been nominated as the leader after the death of her former Captain Jacob Cains; it was a horrible death, fried by a bolt from a tesla coil. Six year have been peaceful and now it was time to head back again.

Tanya was wearing a mid-cut tank top and camouflaged shorts; she had long and untied brown hair and brown eyes. She was very good looking though, but in a very deadly way. She had two pistols in her holsters; these pair of guns had been heavily modified. From afar it looked like normal Colt .45 pistols but in action they were not much weaker than an AK-47.

The video screen flicked and on symbol of the Alliance appeared. Shortly General Carville appeared on the screen with some other generals behind him, again with his toothpick in mouth. "Ah, agent Tanya. I hope you are rested and ready. Because at oh-eight hundred hours you will be controlling every tank, base, satellite, men, women and child enlisted in the Eastern United State of America. You answer to President and you answer to me. Your adviser from now on is Lieutenant Eva. We will get started immediately, first stop New York, the Lieutenant will give you the details."

The beautiful face of Lieutenant Eva appeared. She was very formally dressed and always had a headphone on her head. Eva had long light brown hair but was all tied into a ponytail. "Good morning agent Tanya. I'm Lieutenant Eva, the Intel officer of the alliance. Since you are the only officer left alive, I'm pretty lucky to still have a job." The lieutenant smiled. Her voice was warm and calm, even under the current extreme situation. She flicked a few button and a television reporting screen appeared. In the screen it was all death and destruction, buildings collapsed and collapsing, piles of body on the ground with blood smeared nearby, in most scene fire appear the most. "It appears that we have suffered a full-scale Soviet invasion, most of the major cities were lost and the Soviets are currently siege against other untaken cities. We have lost communication with many places but fortunately we still have a hold on Fort Bradley in Manhattan. Currently our troops in Fort Bradley have spotted a large supply deport across the river. The deport is only lightly guarded, if your strike team can sneak into the base and cut their supplies then I think it will hold off the Soviet armor advance into the city."

"Don't worry Lieutenant, me and my team won't let you down." Tanya inserted the magazines into her pistol and armed it, "alright boys let show the Russkies how we treat our guests."

Statue of Liberty

The chopper landed across the lake opposite to Statue of Liberty. But there were already four carrier-sized ship parked along the edge of the land. Two transports were also spotted with two dozens of conscript running out. The carrier-sized Dreadnaught were the main Soviet long ranged attack craft, its big launching tracks were armed with humongous evil Tsar missile which could blow almost any structure into pieces within a few shots, the only problem is that the Tsar missiles are big enough to be hit by anti missile weapons. The hidden micro-missile launcher meant any careless approaches would be easily obliterated. The Tsar missiles on the Dreadnaughts fired up and started to push slowly out of its track towards the Statue of Liberty.

Tanya and her team acted quickly and divided into the water and swam as quick as they could toward the enemy warships. She and her seal team members were all equipment with C8 super explosives, they are C4 looking bomb but have a nuclear like punch. All ships were sinkable with C8 except for Marshal Alysenkonov's Stalin III which you do need a nuke to destroy it.

The conscripts on shore opened fire against the already entrenched GIs. Although the GIs are well protected and hidden but the conscripts outnumber the American three to one.

The Tanya strike team came underneath the Dreadnaughts and each member placed a charge and quickly swam toward the shore to aid their under fire comrade in arms.

From behind the Russian soldiers, the four Dreadnaughts exploded from underneath and the to be launched missiles on deck also went off with the explosion. All four ships were sunk. In a sudden of confusion from the Russian soldier, Tanya strike team emerged from water and open fire on the Soviet. The MP10 sub-machine gun used by the seals were ultra quick and can unleash all its ammo in less than 5 seconds. Seals fired their guns at one soldier after another. Tanya's super accuracy was invaluable, one shot one kill. With the aid of Tanya's strike plus the eight GIs guarding the Statue, the 24 conscripts were taken out in a flash. No screams were heard from the Russian soldiers; the dead soldiers just fell on to the ground in slump sound.

All of a sudden the Statue of Liberty clasped. The massive debris and fallen piece nearly killed everyone underneath but only due to the soldier's reaction gave them the time to dive away for safety. After it was all over with the light greenish pieces of the Statue laid across the island and the speaker suddenly turn on.

"Listen very carefully you foolish Americans who dare to oppose the great Soviets, as a sign of warning I laid waste to Statue of Liberty, your symbol of hope and spirit." It was a heavy Russian accented man; the voice was deep and filled with murderous contention. "I'm Premier Alexander Romanov of the USSR and the soon reigning leader of the world. Right now I'm speaking to agent Tanya Adams."

Tanya listened.

"I have studied your skills and your strike team's effort. They were all marvelous, I'm now giving you the chance to surrender and join the great red revolution. Your invaluable skill shall prove the mighty Union great usefulness and shall be rewarded with glory plus honours from our citizen at the victory ceremony." A small pause, "But if you choose not to join in…"

Bang! One shot from Tanya's pistol and the speaker blew to bits and the sparks from its cord showered down. "Over my dead body." She murmured.

Fort Bradley

It wasn't the best of time but certainly the worst of place. Struck by several waves of V3s, most parts of the base were either destroyed or crippled. However the V3s were still coming across the river but much less every wave now because most of V3 launchers were out of rockets thus reloading in the deport. Although the number of V3s were halved but the Patriot missile launchers were still busily firing at its incoming target.

A wave of 5 V3s flew in an arc towards the base, the Patriot launcher quickly fired off its defense missile and all 5 V3s exploded in a beautiful splash.

The thirty of survivor GIs hid mostly behind the concrete wall and lined their guns at the opening. Some of the GIs occupied the two empty pillboxes and a few more waited in the guard towers. Ahead, three Russian transports flew toward Fort Bradley and at distance five hundred metres, the transport started to drop off para-troopers. At least one hundred conscripts with a few Flak Trooper were spotted approaching the base slowly on the street. The GIs behind the wall, inside the pillboxes and above in the towers fired immediately at the Russian troops but the Russians also fired back. Although the GIs had good protection but the Russians outnumbered the American a good three to one, and the conscripts were also taking cover while returning fire.

On the way to Fort Bradley

Tanya and her team turned toward their right with caution and swiftness. They were on the 34th street, no longer any riots by their own people but rather the Soviets. At the end of the street, six GIs were pinned down by twenty-four conscripts. Tanya and the seals started to sprint toward the in trouble GIs but she figured that their help will never reach in time to save the lives of their people but from nowhere grounds around the conscripts exploded and three small but steady Grizzly battle tank appeared. The conscripts didn't panic but were confused, the fast speed of the tanks quickly closed in. The heavy machinegun on the tank's front and top turret opened fire. In such close range, even the best-trained soldier had not hope of surviving. The conscripts fired back and some even tossed their grenades at the tank but in sudden confusion grenades went wide and explode nearby while the bullets were just totally useless.

With enough time given by the help of the tanks, Tanya strike team arrived to quickly clear the remaining Russian troops and met up with the six GIs and drivers of the Grizzly Tanks. They discussed their plan to reinforce the Bradley base and take out the Soviet supply station.

Back at Fort Bradley

Thing were getting worse by the minute. Although the Soviets lost more troops then the GIs but the Americans were down to fifteen while there were still approximately seventy plus Russians. Both GIs on the guard tower were dead and tower itself destroyed after hit by explosive flaks. Both pillboxes were still working but the in one of the box; one GI was unconscious after a grenade exploded nearby. Another GI went down, five shots in the chest and the soldier fell back on the ground with blood split out of the mouth.

Tanya strike team and the six GI split into two teams of ten and nine, they sneaked into the two closest buildings to the Fort Bradley. They quickly rushed to the second story and silently opened the window to get a good aim at the conscripts below.

Tanya's team waited until the Russian were right underneath. In the count of Tanya, her team fired at will and resulted with great kill. Because it was such an unexpected attack, the conscripts were at least reduced by thirty. Until they realized the resistance came from above, the three Grizzlies came in the road before them and blocked their ongoing path. The tanks' machine guns fired and waves of hails of bullet flew towards the conscripts. The Russian fired back at the second story but the tank charged forward and let go of their cannon. The explosion in the middle of the pack resulted in many deaths, but the conscripts knew no pain. One of the Flak Trooper managed to fire a shot at a window on the second story before he died and another conscript managed to threw a bag of grenade into the story opposite to Tanya's building before got covered by rains of bullets. The level opposite to Tanya exploded, the window shattered all nine garrisoning troops died by incineration. A few of the soldier caught in fireball jumped out and fell to death from above.

With a little Soviet victory, the remaining thirty conscripts retreated to get more reinforcement. The Soviet suffered significantly more but the GIs in Fort Bradley were down to ten. But with the slight reinforcement, Fort Bradley was secured. Tanya and her team members were now preparing a plan to cripple the Soviet supply base opposite Fort Bradley.

Fort Bradley

"As soon as the bridge is accessible, the tanks go in first and take out the machine gun turrets and blow a hole on the wall. Then attack the V3 launchers to ensure base security. While you keep the Russkies busy, my team and I will sneak through the broken wall and plant the explosives." Tanya gave out the orders. "Okay, any question or statement."

Tanya waited for any answer.

"While it sounds pretty easy stuff but won't the base be defended tightly?" Private Jones 1st class was puzzled.

"Well, the defenses outside of the depot walls are pretty tough. But once inside the base are completely defenseless, as long as you guys can hold off the Soviet and give me and my team enough time. I will promise you nothing will be left standing." Tanya explained while other nodded in agreement.

"Any more question." Tanya again waited for answer but there was none. "Okay move out boys!"

The bridge to Service depot

Engineer Chen inserted the last screw of the mechanical bridge, he pressed the button to lower it, and the section of the bridge came down in a low hum sound and joined up with the other end. The three grizzly tanks drove forward in a single line followed with the GIs and Tanya's strike team.

Service depot

The night sky in America was as worse as the sky in Russian, stars were hardly seen. The big automatic sentry light on the guard tower swept left to right and back to have a constant view of the area.

It turned from left to right and found nothing but when its light came back, the American tank was in the path. Before it gave away the warning siren, the Grizzly opened fire first and blew the light to bits. That gave away silence anyway but it still gave operator a good feel.

The siren went off and troops in the barrack stormed out and headed toward the hot spot. One of the tanks turned its turret to right and blew at least a 2 meters opening on the wall. Tanya and 8 of the seal members went inside the base through the opening. Soon, outside the wall gun firing came to life.

Because of the unexpected attack, all attentions were on the tanks. Nobody saw Tanya and her team sneaked in. She and her teammates placed explosives on the structures as quickly as they could. Until all explosives were place and they were about to leave, a dozen men in a metal suited amour with an over sized helmet appeared. On the oversized helmet, there was a glass for the person inside to see through. On their right arm was a bright flashing energy bolt charging constant. Both teams froze for a moment. They looked at each other, and Tanya saw the big red hammer-sickle sign on the forehead of the helmet. For the immediately reaction to Tanya was danger, she divided away just when the enemies also realized the danger and opened fire. Three electric bolts charged from the troops arm and instantly fried 3 seals. Tanya stared in disbelieve as she had only heard rumors about the Soviet walking electric launcher but never actually seen one. She and other seals fired back. Bullets didn't have much effect on the Tesla troops because they all wore armour. Two much bolts hit another two unfortunate seals. The rest lucky hid themselves behind some sorts of cover. One of the seals leant behind a empty barrel for cover but what he had forgotten was that electricity conducts metal and unfortunately for him, the Tesla trooper saw him and fired at barrel, the result wasn't much different to the already electrocuted.

Tanya and last three seal took cover behind some wooden boxes and fired back. The lightening bolt fired from the enemies hit the boxes and safely absorbed into Earth. Tanya was worried more about the explosives then the electricity blazing troops. One the oil tanker exploded into a massive fireball, the explosion also set off a line of barrel full of crude oil. A chain reaction of big and small explosion occurs along the path to service station. The racket filled with V3 missiles also went off, tagged along with the power plant nearby. The tesla troops were all confused like others and with the time given, Tanya and her team retreated back slowly. The big tesla troop looked around and when they turned back, the intruders were no longer there. More explosions occurred inside the base, the storeroom, the bunker house and another barrack all tumbled to pieces. Tanya looked at her stop watch and saw only 12 seconds left until all explosives goes off.

"Let move, we got only 10 left." She shouted as her team sprinted towards hole opened by the tank. 3, 2, 1 and behind them the formerly Soviet structures turn into a sea of red, yellow and orange, the booming sound shocked the entire Manhattan. The force of the explosion made all four soldiers fell onto the ground. It was a loud thump but comparing with the current battle going on, it was like a buzzing fly in a generator room. The inside of the base look more like hell then anything else, the wreckage of building laid across in carpet fashion. Smoke was thick and some building was still burning. Tanya and her team got up and walked toward the opening in victorious feeling.

Outside the depot

The grizzly tank blew up after three full power lightening bolt hit simultaneously; all three soldiers inside were killed instantly. Before the three walking light bolt took aim for another kill, one GI spotted them and threw a grenade. With undisciplined American way training and near zero visibility area, the grenade went miles off the target and exploded harmlessly. But the explosion triggered V3 missile laid on the ground nearby and that too went off. Although the grenade wasn't enough to hurt anything but the V3 was like a nuke blast. Everything in its thirty metres surrounding was vaporized, V3 launchers, conscript and the 3 tesla troops.

The remaining Soviet fought with intensity but the result was already clear. The service depot was in complete broken condition and it will take at least half month to rebuild. With the hopeless situation turned worse the Russian sergeant had not choice but to order his remaining men retreat to join up with big force attacking New York.

Tanya, the 3 seals and other GIs cheered for their first victory. Although the depot was destroyed and Manhattan was secured for time being, but that was a matter of time before the Soviet amour division penetrates the New York defense.

Philadelphia Command Centre

General Carville was more or less pleased with the good news from New York. But when he looked at the computerized tactical displaying screen he was dismayed again. On the giant screening, the red spot representing New York turned into blue one but on the rest of America was all red. There were a lot of thing the Americans needed to do he though, and this time without the support of European allies.

Chapter 2: Eagle Dawn

It was a dark period for the Alliance. England, France and Germany all fell under the power of Soviet Union in the first 5 days of the war. As for the rest of Europe, you could just say they are history. America was just as worse like its neighbors. The sudden counter attack in Manhattan did nothing to stop the Soviet advance. Instead of retake Manhattan, a fleet of Kirovs was ordered to completely decimate the city. 5 hours of carpet-bombing, the busiest city in the world turned into a land of destruction, famine and death.

Vladimir's force rampaged through the entire America like no one had seen before. Vladimir's elite troops swept from western coast to eastern coast and from up north all the way down to south. No feeble American defenses had yet held the Russian at bay for more than 2 hours. US cities fell one by one, column after column of Soviet tank ripped American bases apart, waves after waves of air forces blew cities into shreds, fleet after fleet of naval ship struck American harbors while endless waves of ground troops left no two legs alive in their path.

Nuclear Missile Silos were built on Polish border, and warning messages were sent to all European leaders that any attempt of resistance would face the consequence of nuclear weapon retaliation.

Meanwhile at Colorado airbase

The base was pretty much deserted as most of the troops were sent to the front line. However some left to guard the base. Although the base was deserted of people but aircrafts were abundant. Although the current situation was global wide urgency, but Lieutenant Callaghan still set in office watch his preordered pay per view wrestling. He and his troops had nothing better to do and nothing to be done except guard the base.

It was a very cold and heavily snowing in Colorado. From the base the only thing that soldiers could see was the white colour of snow. After a night of heavy snowing, all buildings, house, cars and road were cover with thick layers of knee sinkable snow. All civilians in Colorado were evacuated after they heard the news of Soviet invasion, nobody wanted to be taken as a prisoner and nobody would be taken as a prisoner. Evacuatees all took sheltering in the underground base that had been dug during the cold war to prevent nuclear strikes.

The airbase was perhaps the biggest in America; although two thirds of the aircrafts were gone but still 200 different aircrafts were left. Lieutenant Callaghan had barely enough men to secure every corner of the base but far not enough to make a counter attack.

In the near visibility zero condition anything more than 5 meters away was impossible to be seen, but the howling wind and the heavy engine sound were clearly audible.

Captain Ryan was confused and worried. Private Nicholson took control of the heavy machine and aimed at vast sea of white.

Ryan picked up his radio to confirm with other defense positions about the sound, when they all agreed there were heavy mechanize force movement out there he called Lieutenant Callaghan.

"Sir, we have confirmation that a heavy mechanize force is nearby." Ryan was as tensed as his comrades.

"Relax Captain, that's one of our tank regiment." Callaghan took out his schedule list and found the reinforcement of a grizzly tank division on June Fifteenth, 5:30. "Damn lazy buggers, they are already 2 hours late, I'm sick and tied of waiting."

"So what should we do sir." Ryan asked.

"What you suppose to do, fire up the flares!" Callaghan yelled out.

Five phosphorus flares lifted into the sky. The blinding flares brighten the sky over the airbase for a fair while. Ryan still doubted his Lieutenant's order, fearing the approach of hostile. The engine sounded like of the tank from Ryan's experience. But from the loudness, there had to be at least 50 of them nearby.

Russian tank battalion

Although the snowing was heavy but the five flares were as bright as the sun. From the telescope of the commanding Apocalypse tank, Commander Rusptin of tank regiment 208 decided to order his troops to stop and investigate the area.

"Attuntion comrades, unknown flar signals sighted, prepa to take aksion on close by hastales." Rusptin had an ethnical Russian accent like everyone else but his somehow filled with more anger to kill Americans then his comrades.

With orders given, his force all turned toward the source of the flares.

Empty base near the Colorado base

The Russians had not yet discovered the air base in the area but on the way they have found a fairly large deserted supply base. Commander Rusptin gave his troops another order to setup a base before go to the source of flares. With only few hours of preparation, the base was set up with full equipment. Computer controlled sentry guns were place on the perimeter of the base with a few automatic aiming flak cannon within in the base. Prebuilt buildings were a good replacement for barracks. When everything was ready, a six solid-wheeled troop carrier armed with a smaller flak gun moved out of the base quickly to scout ahead.

From the scout's infrared binoculars, the Colorado airbase was clearly in view. The fighters, bomber and numerous other types of aircrafts were seen. There were a lot of them too. With enough information observed, the scouts drove their Flak track back to their base.

Colorado base

The radio cracked up in Lieutenant Callaghan's office. He picked it up impatiently.

"Lieutenant Callaghan, I'm afraid that my tank force will be delayed to reinforce your airbase because we have to clear a mine field." It was Sergeant Hall; his voice was shrill and filled with anxiety.

"Whadda hell are you talking about, there are no mine field in the area around the base." Callaghan was angry with Hall's report, "Are you bloody dumb or are you playing game with me, I can clearly hear your tanks' engine from my office. Sergeant if you play games with me during the current situation I will have you court marsh…." The lieutenant's sentence never finished when his office was blown to bit by a direct hit of a cannon shell from a Rhino tank outside the airbase.

Battle heated up pretty quick in Colorado. The Soviets were invading from East, Southeast and South of the airbase. Soviet tanks were in front of the troop carriers as a shield. The base was hit very inexpertly, it defense was poor because nobody had thought anyone would find it, but the Russians did, by surprise.

Ryan was firing his M-86 heavy machine gun fiercely. He swept the machine at the horizon, rains of bullet flew out but all bounced off the tanks harmlessly. The place also had heavy fog so both sides can hardly see each other. There was a few anti tank gun around the base somewhere but clearly not enough to fight all those T-99 Rhino tank at once. The Russians pushed closer and closer to the airbase but still visibility was poor. From a blind shot by one of the Rhinos, the pillboxes forty-metres to Ryan's left blow up. His assistance took over control of the machine gun as he went for the radio to call his Lieutenant.

"Sir what you order." But only the sound of sizzle replied him.

"Lieutenant! Are you there? Hello!" But again he was answered by static sound.

Ryan realized his superior's fate after he turned around and saw the wreckage of the Lieutenant' office.

"Shit." He swore to himself

"Captain, since the Lieutenant is dead I think you have just earned yourself a promotion, what's your order sir?" It was private Nicholson asked.

"Tell all unit to retreat." Ryan had no choice but to pull his men back while they still can.

Nicholson hit the red emergency button for retreat; a short while later all defense positions received the signal and quickly moved out their place. Because of the poor visibility condition, the Rusptin's tank group never saw any movement in front of them. His tank continued to pound the base defenses into shreds with blind shot; and too he personally scored a few kills with his ace shooting work.

The Soviet tanks were very close to the base but they still couldn't see it. With that advantage given, Ryan and his escapee flipped over the wall and escaped into the nearby forest to call for reinforcements.

Colorado Airbase

Rusptin was very happy for his men's performance but not pleased enough to see the base was deserted. He looked around too find more than a hundred and fifty aircrafts of all kinds parked in the hangar.

It was around 10:30 when the base was completely taken over, the fog began to clear up and the whole base was much better viewing condition than before.

"Comrades, we need to guard this base from the Yankees. This is a very important airbase for them, without it…" Rusptin didn't finish off his sentence but just laughed.

In the Forest

"…then American will be defenseless in air." Private Kingsley suggested. Kingsley was the radio operator in Ryan's command.

"Kingsley, send a SOS signal to the General's office." Ryan ordered while keep a look out.

"Yeah sir, I will get right onto it."

Philadelphia command center

"Yes, yes, I understand that Mr. President, the Europeans were asking for our help not before too long. Yes, okay take care Mr. President." Like that General Carville hanged the phone with anger, not at the president but at the European nation for lack of support. In frustration and anger he smashed off all the files on his desk. Damn right we shouldn't be asking help from anybody he thought, but Romanov and his troops were romping across the world without any resistance. And the current situation seemed America was his final target before total Soviet global domination.

Suddenly his answer machine came to life a female version told Carville there was an urgent transmission from line 5. Knee deep in thought Carville impatiently clicked the answer button and the big video screen flicked up.

Ryan and his team were in the bushes, the transmission wasn't very clear, with a few sizzles. But the General didn't care.

"Sir, we have been hit hard by the a force of Soviet tanks in Colorado and they have taken over the base." Ryan said.

"Sir, I have received the urgent transmission from Colorado half an hour ago. Seems like the Communist have the control of that area." The new comer was Tanya; she was in her normal outfit but inside a camouflaged tent and in front of a tactical map.

"Why the devil you wait til now and report, we can't let them take that base!" Gen Carville was even more frustrated than before.

"With all due your respect sir, we have been a little bit busy." Tanya repeated.

"Lieutenant Eva, please take Tanya out of the hole she dug for herself and make use to yourself." Gen Carville was quite a funny man indeed .

"The heck with your…" Tanya's reply was suddenly turned off by Gen Carville.

"We seems to have lost Tanya's transmission."

Colorado Springs

It was noon and it was still very cold. But the fog was gone and a clear sky above the town. Tanya's Blackhawk chopper landed with little silence. Tanya jumped off first, followed by her seal team. The helicopter quickly flew away to avoid alert the local patrols.

Tanya's team quickly ran into the bush before been detected and while they moved around in the bush, a group Soviet patrol spotted them but due to the lightening reaction of the commandos, the five conscripts fell under the silencers with a sound. The strike team advanced cautious but also to cover more space into less time they had no choice but to pick up speed.

Tanya's radio suddenly came to life.

"This is Captain Ryan of division 401, where are about your location." It was Ryan's voice.

"20 degrees, south-west west of the airbase." Tanya replied while looked around. "Near the Patrol hut."

"We will at rendezvous at 33 degrees, south-east." Ryan said.

Tanya and her people crossed the road and entered the forest on the other side. When they have arrived the rendezvous point, Ryan and his team hovered over top and slowly dropped to the ground.

Ryan's troop all wore the newest JPT-X32 mini jet engines. They were extremely light for what it does and extremely heavy duty. Ryan's troops were all armed with a mini Vulcan on their right arm and micro-rocket launcher on the left arm. The speed of the jet pack could go up to two-third of the sound. Each of the Rocketeers was like a human jet fighter.

"I am glad to see you guys." Ryan was happy for he was still alive.

"So am I." Tanya's smiled "So where are all you other troops?"

"I donno, we were all separated after the retreat. But I am sure they are all the area somewhere. If I could link with them…" Ryan didn't finish the sentence

Tanya's video screen flicked on and Eva was there.

"Agent Tanya, our Canadian airborne with be at the airbase in half any hour. You and your team must take out the anti-air craft defense in the area to ensure safe para-dropping." Lieutenant gave out the objective.

'We will get right on it." Tanya replied with a salute.

Tanya took out her tactical map and explained to everybody.

"From our observation, the airbase is not heavily guarded but the Soviet have set up a lot of flak canons in the base." Tanya said.

"How's the amour resistance." Private Curly blurted out.

"From my observation there are only three T-99 tanks, the rest are in the other base." Tanya replied.

"So to my conclusion, we will strike the airbase hard and fast." Tanya concluded.

Suddenly from surrounding at least 30 or so GIs approached the group.

"Now it's getting interesting." Ryan exclaimed.

"Alright, Ryan while we are removing the air defenses you will harass the 3 tanks and keep them busy." Tanya gave out the command "And the rest of you fellow me."

Like that the troops moved out. The rocketeers slowly hovered into the air and waited for Tanya's team to strike. The ground troops split into three teams and headed for the base from different direction. Tanya's team was one and the other two teams consisted of 20 GIs each. The Soviets seemed not to be very alarmed, not many patrols were in the area and any patrols spotted by the Americans were taken care quickly.

Lucky for the GIs, because there are not many Soviet patrols, the trial of footprints laid behind by the GIs wasn't very vitally dangerous to them. The groups of 20 GIs quickly ran into the desolated town area. Most of the buildings were on fire, some were already burnt out but smoking and some has collapsed. Along the street, no single Soviet patrols were seen, that was good for the GIs but even better when they found 3 empty grizzly tanks camouflaged under the heavy snow. The tanks were in perfect condition, the 9 GIs volunteered to operate the tanks. Because of the simplicity of the American tanks, they don't require a very powerful engine thus the engine they use were a lot quieter then the Soviet counterpart. The three tanks took commanding lead and follow by the rest of the team.

The airbase was right in front of Tanya and her people. The commandos advanced quickly in a prone position. Until they suddenly stopped and dropped to the ground because all members saw two robotic sentry guns guarded the entrance to the base. The sentry gun is better than the pillboxes used by the Americans, it's automatically aim and shoot on sight at any non-soviet personnel, and it operate 24 hours a day 7 days a week. Tanya and her team didn't dare to move but when they found out there is a small pound in front of the gun, the commandos slowly crawled into the water and swam slowly ashore and by passed gun without get into the view of its video aiming screen. Tanya placed two C4 charge at 3 minutes, that enough time they needed to take out all the air defenses.

Airbase

Because of the suddenly attack all the Russian were taken off guard and one by one fell under the silence weapons of the commandos. Every member of the commandos placed a C4 charge on the flack cannon as quickly as they could and waited no time to place another one. The Rhino tanks however noticed the attack and they offered fire back with machine gun fire.

None of the weapons carried by the commando were any use against armour so they dodged and hid behind ruins of the base. All of sudden the C4 charges placed on flaks and gun turrets when off in chains of explosion, crippling the base defense one after another. Until all the flak cannon were down, the pack of rocketeers flew in and started to harass the tanks. Although the Vulcans on their arm was slightly strong than a M60 machine and their explosive rockets can damage light vehicles but against armour was still useless. But that gave Tanya and her team to finish off the rest of the base defenses on the perimeter of the base.

The Soviets offered little resistance apart from the tank, but they got side tracked when the group of GI rushed into the base from the east led but three grizzly tanks. It was another unexpected attack, although Rhinos were stronger in pure combat ability then the Grizzly but three on one was enough to overcome the odd.

The first Rhino blow up when three concentrated shells got a direct hit. The Rhino fire back but hit one of the Grizzly, the American tank was also hit directly and its driver was killed instantly but the turret offered a last shot at the Rhino before another hit blew the Grizzly to pieces. The Rhino was hit on the side and the tread was broken, it fired a few shots but missed the Grizzlies for there advantage in speed. With a few misses in crucial situation the two Grizzlies re-aimed and fired simultaneously at the immobile Rhino tank and the result was good, the turret blow up in direct hit. The third Rhino panicked and fired, its shell didn't fully hit the Grizzly but its explosion knocked out the turret operator cold. The driver had no choice but charged in a suicidal attempt at the Rhino. The two tanks collided, and Rhino fired, destroying the Grizzly but also damaging itself, with enough time given the last Grizzly aimed at the turret of the last Rhino and fire, it resulted in a spectacular explosion where the turret blew off.

Just in time, the humming sound in the sky made everyone in the airbase to look and saw the Canadian 093 airborne division had just arrived and troops plus tanks and other vehicles were parachuted out of the transports. The Canadian had just arrived before all air defenses were cleared.

Small base near Colorado Airbase

The Canadian airborne was the best in their country, it consisted 300 marines and more than 80 vehicles. Once landed the marines cut away their parachute and tossed it aside, the tanks and armored cars were equipped with auto parachute detachers so it could detach automatically.

Soviet tank group

The unexpected arrival of the Canadian airborne shocked the Russian but much to Rusptin's amaze, the time for a good and equal opportunity battle had arrived. Without a second though, he hopped into his brand new

T-150 Marker II apocalypse tank and lead his force out of the base.

Rusptin's command tank was the improved version of the newest, biggest and the best brand of tank in the current world tank market. Although the Rhino was already a tough nut for the little Allies, the Apocalypse tank would cause even more fear amongst the enemy. The apocalypse tank was at least twice the size of the Rhino tank. It had two massive 120mm cannon on the turret with fast automatic reloading system. On the front of the tank was a big double layer fork like blade to cut and mow down any obstacles in the way. Because of its size and weight it required two super heavy-duty engines. The tank had 2 sets of treads instead of 1 set for normal tank and also due to its complicity of the tank's system, it required 6 people to operate than average 3. The tank was basically indestructible in any form of combat; the tank had the most powerful and most durable amour out of all the latest tanks. On its turret there were also two mammoth tusk missile launcher, one on each side and capable of bringing down any fighter with a pair with superb accuracy. The only draw back was the speed, it's slower than the smaller cousin T-99 but the no matter, the Apocalypse tank was the symbol of the Soviet armour superiority in the world which no other nation can get even close.

Rusptin felt ten time safer and mightier in the tank, he could felt the phenomenon of invulnerability while in the tank.

Canadian airborne force

The Canadians were also on the march with Commander Steven's M1A2 battle tank on the lead with a bunch of M1A1s around. Both force were getting closer, the Soviets seemed to have more in numbers but the Canadians had air support from the American rocketeers.

The two forces met and a deadly closer combat started. The rocketeers hovered around in the air spraying 9mms on the vehicles and firing rockets at tanks. The soviets had the mobile flak track, and that was a very big threat. Its auto aiming flak gun turned in great flexibility and fired off some explosive flak into the air. Because the great speed of the rocketeers the flaks was hard to hit it but some did and result in the horrible death of the person. One rocketeers was hit directly and his exploded into a mixture of metal, flame and flesh.

It was a big tank battle; the Soviets seemed to be winning. Rusptin's tank had already scored 5 kill personally. The Rhinos were out matching the Grizzlies at every corner of pure combat skills. Command Stevens was also doing fairly well, 7 Rhinos fell under his never miss shot. The Canadians were pushed back by at least 1500 hundred metres and that was 500 metres from the air base. Cmd Stevens was on the job of guarding the airbase at all cost and can no longer let the Soviets get any closer. The Soviet have only lost about 13 or so out of the 60 tanks but the Allies had already lost more than half of their numbers, they were down to 25.

The Soviet gotten ever closer, they overwhelmed the Canadian with number and strength. The Canadians couldn't hold on for much longer when hails of missile and bomb dropped from the sky. At least twenty F16s were flying in the sky and firing down at the Soviet tank column. The first salvo of missiles and bombs caught the Russian completely off guard, and with that they instantly lost 15 or more tanks. The odds was much better but the flak tracks were still a big threat to air power, so the F16 strafed the ground target with its machine guns. The flak tracks were completely useless when fighters were flying low, the strafing bullets decorated the tracks with uncountable bullet holes and turn it into a pieces of useless metal trash.

The rest of Canadian tanks counter attacked. Even with air superiority, the Soviets still fought back hard. When another dozen tank fell, Rusptin saw no chance of winning the battle but he ordered his men to fight til the end. The Soviets were failing and the enemy tanks surrounded them in a circle. But Rusptin didn't care he and his force continued to fight until every single one of the tank was destroyed, that included his.

The bitter victory at Colorado saved the airbase from the Soviet but had cost a lot more lives then in Manhattan, including Cmd Steven's own when his tank was blown to piece by the last few shots from Rusptin's tank.

Philadelphia command center

The biggest airbase in America was secured and Gen Carville finally put his worry aside. But Canada had also been dragged into the war and already their first battle cost a lot of life. But nevertheless the American got back little hope of winning in air.

Chapter 3: Hail to the Chief

With a desperate victory at Colorado Springs, the American have got their air force back into action. But the Soviet still controlled more than ninety-five percent of the country. And the Yuri's psychic forces had already started to deploy their psychic weapon on American soil. Due the complicity of the setting up of the psychic beacons only a few small beacons were managed to be deployed, but for all the already finished beacon, the people in the area around it all joined the Soviets. So far Los Angels, New York, Vancouver, Les Vegas fell under Soviet's psychic control but also the most disturbing news was that Washington D.C also fell under the psychic power, that meant President Dugan and General Carville were turned to join the Soviets.

Kremlin, Moscow

"Comrade premier, the Canadians have joined the war to aid the Americans." It was Yuri's insidious tone.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha. The foolish Canadian have underestimated the might of the Soviet power, but they will pay and learn after get hit by a few of my nuclear bombs." Romanov said.

Ring! Ring! The phone in the premier's office rang and Yuri picked it up, after half a minute Yuri face turned into a evil grin and hang it shortly.

"Comrade, we have much to celebrate." Yuri announce.

"Oh, what's up?" Premier asked

"My psychic corp. have by now taken most of the major cities with our newest weapon, the mind control devices. And the greatest new is that the American capital have fall and we have their President and their highest ranking military officer General Carville in our grasp." Yuri explained.

"Wa, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha." Romanov burst down another maniac laugh. "Comrade, the world shall fall under the communism rule in very short time. Wa, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!

Nursing home, Richmond

The elders were tied of the ongoing war, especially for all the Vietnam War war veterans. As all the people huddled in a group in front of the TV the president of United States of America walked on to gave a talk.

"I represent on behalf of the people of United States of America, I have an urgent message to tell you all." Dugan began but this time he sounded a little bit weird.

"For the past few weeks of brutal war against the Soviet, I have came to a conclusion of that the Soviets are now the leader of the world and I proudly to announce the surrendering of America to the Central Communist Committee Party. Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girl, young and old, I honorably present you to our new leader, premier Romanov of the USSR.

The camera view zoomed out and the huge video screen was seen perfectly. Premier Romanov came to view and began his speech.

Dallas Intel Post – Lieutenant Eva's

From the video screen next to Eva, General Carville was leaning on his armchair, drinking coffee and watching Romanov's speech. When he turned around he laughed hysterically.

"Ah Lieutenant, go tell Tanya that she did a pretty damn impressive job in Colorado. But thing have changed, the war is over and the communists have won with ease…" Eva turned off the video screen.

"I don't think we need any more of these." The lieutenants shocked her head with disgust. She clicked a few more buttons and the face of a young American officer appeared, from a quick look he seemed to be a Sergeant. The officer's name was Jonathan Colbert and he had just finished his military course only a few days before the Soviet invasion began, and now he had to lead his troops into real combat with little training.

"Sergeant, from our intelligence source, seems like the president and even General Carville are under the influence of the psychic beacon made by this man." Eva pressed another button and picture of Yuri appeared, Yuri was completely bald but had a big psychic array on his head, beside the picture of Yuri was a blue print of a psychic beacon.

"This is Yuri, only known as Yuri. Our intelligence sources believe now that he and his psychic corp. are responsible for compromising all of our defenses before the invasion. Many cities are now under Soviet psychic control and that includes our capital. The president and general Carville are also under control by the Soviets, they are our first priority and we must rescue them first. Sergeant Colbert, since your troops are the closet to the capital, I leave all my hopes on you to get the president and general out. I can link you to all the unaffected troops in the area and with their help to destroy the beacon."

"Lieutenant, leave them all to me, out." Colbert finished the sentence followed by a salute.

Washington D.C

Heavy resistance made the American troops virtually impossible to advance into the capital. Every house, bunker, building and structure in D.C was garrisoned by Soviet troops. Mines were laid at all possible entrance. Tanks, sentry guns, flame towers and flak cannons were very well placed across the city and made the assault from air nearly impossible.

Three waves of aerial bombing failed miserably, no single bomb was dropped before all plane was shot down. No survivor for the initial wave of tank rush. All destroyed in the mine fields. The gun fights between infantry took place from house to house, block to block and street to street, and yet what the American soldier doesn't know was that all the enemies they fought up to so far were all their own people but mind controlled by the Soviets.

Although with a hefty lose but most of the minefields were cleared, all the tank wreckages gave the troops some cover from enemy fire. With better knowledge about D.C than Soviet, the Americans slowly turned the tide of battle on the out skirt of the capital. Because the all people on the defenses of D.C outskirt were all mind controlled Americans, they obvious weren't told by the Soviet to retreat rather than fight til last man. Without the element of surprise, the American used their armour to draw fire and use troops to hit back.

After four hours of intensive action and with the combination of infantries, armors and air power, slowly the defenses on the out skirts were eliminated and forces began to push in. IVFs (infantry fighting vehicles) played a very big role in the early success. IVFs were multipurpose armored car; it can be used to fire micro rocket or support infantries with heavy machine or repair-damaged tanks.

Until all defensive positions on the outskirt were taken, the Americans met the true Soviet defense. The new resistance was even more veracious then before, and all defender actually knew what they had to do, that which was provided to be even harder for the Americans to make a good attack.

Nevertheless the Soviets were pushed back. The White House, Pentagon building, Philadelphia Centre was getting closer. Most importantly the big psychic beacon behind the white house was clearly visible afar, but not in range of any artillery weapons.

American advance was temporarily stopped at the bridges since the resistance was very strong as the Soviet regrouped and built into an even more defensive position.

By noon, the American still hadn't moved one inch over the bridge, any who did was already dead. It was a tough siege for the American, a siege against their on capital to prevent it to deteriorate from its current situation. Anything they damaged are their only, the Russian loses nothing.

The IVFs were again useful in combat, where tanks provided sheer brute power and amour cars did all the diagnostic work. With the free space between troops and tanks it gave machine gun support. Between a battered tank and destruction it provided repairing. And between itself and enemies, it fired everything it got.

Finally the Americans broke through and taken over the strongholds near the bridges, but both sides suffered heavy casualties. The Americans were only a few hundred metres away from the white house where the last stand off took place. The squadron of Mig fighters and flak cannons on the ground gave the American bombers and fighters a big headache. A dogfight soon started in the sky, Migs chased bombers, F16 fired back at Migs, and bombers dropped bombs. All happened so suddenly and it gave a sign to the Americans that a final thrust should start to rescue the president, the general and free Washington D.C from psychic grasp.

It finally happened, forces came from all directions. The Grizzly tanks led the attack, followed with GIs and covered by low flying rocketeers. In the air, bombers were able to drop bombs with pinpoint precision to suppress the Soviet armors and to cripple defense positions.

Sergeant Colbert led his own strike team up to the White House itself and jumped out of his command car. Shoots still came from the inside of the white house from Soviet officers who doesn't want to be captured as prisoners. But the result was already set and there was no way Russians can turn the tide unless reinforcements.

The psychic beacon crumbled when all twelve C4 charges and fifty grenades went off at once. The top of the beacon broke off first and landed head first, which shattered it to pieces. Then follow with the body and eventually the whole base itself. The whole beacon was no more in a mere two minutes, but that still felt like two hours in the heart of the victors.

With the psychic beacon gone all the survivor slaves of Yuri woke from the grasp and President Dugan and his aid helped him out of the White House like he was badly drunk. Before Dugan stepped into the chopper, he walked over to Sergeant Colbert and shock hands.

"Thank you very much for what all of you have done." Dugan complemented.

"After the war I will promote you to any rank you want, except the president." Dugan saluted and left Washington D.C in his chopper.

Kremlin, Moscow

Yuri woke from the bad news from one of his psychic minion through mind communication.

"Master, we have received urgent news." Yuri's psychic troop reported.

"How bad is it?" Yuri asked

"Washington is hit and unfortunately our forces weren't strong enough to stop them before the reinforcement arrived, they also rescued Dugan and the General." The discipline said.

"Cunning little Americans." Yuri sighed "Is Project Red near finish."

"We are at the finishing stage master." The Yuris answered.

'Very good, Dugan have provided us enough military information anyway, when Project Red finishes, entire America continent shall fall to the mighty Soviet Union." Yuri said "Patience is indeed required to fulfill the glorious destiny of Mother Russia."

Chapter 4: Last Chance

Washington D.C was released from Yuri's psychic grip but the nation's capital was retaken by the Soviets with a massive reinforcement. The American had much to do to save their nation and the most dangerous moment had arrived. The secretly built psychic beacon in Chicago was under the last stage of development before activation, it's far more powerful then the one used in the capital. And when it does go online the mind of the population on the continent of American will became Yuri's servants and Romanov's slaves. Americans put everything on line; this is a battle they must win or unaccountable consequence shall follow.

Chicago

The big psychic beacon's transmitter spun slowly once, twice, three times… Around the dreadful structure was a huge base. Base defenses spread across the city. Vehicles and infantries filled the streets and constant patrols took place. The troops that were guarding the psychic amplifier were given order from Russian high command to defend it at all cost.

Michigan lake

Lucky for the American and their highly sensitive satellite information allowed them to discover a more powerful psychic beacon was built. A large team of troops was sent on a half suicidal amphibious attack to destroy the beacon; another airborne team still had a fair way to go.

At least 30-aegis destroyers and 10 aegis cruisers led the assault followed by a large group of amphibious landing crafts headed toward the shore.

The inside the leading destroyer USS Kellaway, Captain Moseby walked from one end of the bridge to another and then back.

"Captain." One of operator shouted. "Enemy signal spotted on the sonar."

"Find out what is it?" Capt. Moseby ordered the young operator while he twitched his cigar in his mouth. The captain was about 50, old man with a pair of young eyes. He had white hair, shaven but visible white beard. The captain always had a cigar whenever he's in the bridge and this time was no different to others.

"Sir, from our sonar status, it detected metal and it's a fast attack submarine." Operator said.

"That's impossible, no submarine can be submerged in a lake likes this, they will be smashed to piece easily." The captain was so stunned to hear the new.

Bang! The destroyer nearby went into a huge explosion as it was struck by a torpedo. More torpedo fired out from submarines and more destroyers were hit.

"Alert, alert all stations, Soviet navy threat in the area, I repeat Soviet navy threat in the area." Moseby shouted through the speaker as another torpedo hit a destroyer nearby. "All unit return fire."

* * *

The ambush by the submarines sunk at least a dozen destroyers. The submarines were just a little bit under the surface of water, but from the naked eye it's impossible to see. It was a different story on the sonar screens. The blue dots of the amphibious fleet were marching towards the submarines, which was colored red. From the landing deck of the destroyer the small Osprey* launched out and flew toward the submarines. The flak cannons on the shoreline opened fire and a few of the flimsy Ospreys were hit crashed into the river. The defense of the destroyers against submerged units all depended on the Ospreys because it contained depth charge, but the destroyers had the ability to bombard the shorelines and they did. The simultaneous fire of the destroyers turned one side of the shoreline into a sea of clangs and explosions. Buildings clasped and flak cannons were blown to pieces. The ospreys were right on top of the submarine when the Capt. Moseby gave the order of fire at will; the hover planes dropped their depth charge one after another. Underneath the water, submarine that were hit exploded in slow motion like scene, water was pushed upwards to form spectacular explosion due to the extreme pressure underneath. Majority of the blockading submarines were destroyed by the perfect and swift attack; the fleet moved on.

When the fleet came very close to the water gate, the two Soviet built grand cannons opened fire and also on the shore the V3 rocket launcher launched their huge rockets at the fleet. Because the size of Michigan Lake, all ships were packed closely together so on explosion will usually damage a few nearby. The accuracy of the Grand Cannon weren't very precise but it provided high explosion, so far no boat was hit. The destroyer fire back at the huge shore cannons as the aegis cruiser let go of their anti-missile missiles. In the sky, V3 rockets explode in brilliant patterns, where the pinpoint accuracy of the destroyer crippled the Grand Cannons.

So far out of the 45 destroyers, 20 were sunk and 3 cruisers were destroyed, no harm to the transports was indeed very good news. The amphibious landing received heavy resistance but the navy was able to suppress them for long enough until the ground force cleared the area. The destroyer fired at Soviet installations further away from the shoreline, the ospreys hovered around in the air to seek and destroy any lurking submarines. Humongous quantity of tanks and troops poured out of the amphibious transport, they took cover quickly to give space to the other transports to land.

Chicago

The landed troops and tanks regrouped and waited order. But while waiting the loud speaker open up.

"Nuazbyruskd kufironovks sebacunieve lies ocutema." It was a Russian voice which nobody understood but when the soldiers saw the digital clock was counting down they realized that they don't want to be here when it reached zero. There was only one hour, fifty-nine minutes and fifty-six seconds left.

* * *

Numerous Soviet patrol attacks were subdued with superior firepower from sea, air and ground. More attacks were made by the patrol when not very effective. Before the strike force met Soviet armour columns, the resistances were poor. Sentry guns, flame towers and garrisoned building were eliminated with ease from air, the Americans finally learnt the lesson of not to be bold when shouldn't be by use the hard way.

It was more like a deadly cat and mouse game in an urban battle. Because American tanks were light and easy, they were quieter than Soviet tanks. It was a pretty freaky situation for the Americans where they could hear the enemy tank's engine sound but could not see it until too late…

Many unfortunate deaths happened when American tank turned in the corner where a Rhino was waiting. Troops were ambushed from top floors of building were the Soviets threw grenades down to cause many inhuman ways of deaths. The location of the psychic amplifier was unknown but it was definitely in Chicago. The troop got closer to the beacon but still couldn't see it, however they could hear a low humming sound. The resistance was getting heavier, and soon the Americans found themselves again in trouble of unable to advance any more.

* * *

Suddenly waves after waves of troop transporter and bombers guarded by massive fighter squadrons flew across the site of the psychic beacon. Para-troopers, jeep rangers and IVFs poured down the sky like rain. The flak cannons and AA guns returned fire immediately. With all attention paid to the sudden airborne division drop, scout rocketeers were ignored.

The rocketeers came back with good and bad news. The good news was that they have found the base and the beacon, the bad news was there was less then one hour left to destroy the amplifier before it goes on line.

* * *

Corporal Dickson held the M60 machine tightly and advanced cautiously with his team. The snipers in the area were especially cunning; his team had already lost more than twenty soldiers. Jackson was the sniper of the group, while was hiding somewhere in the building and seeking out the Russian snipers; the rest of his team couldn't only go slowly. Car wreckages and broken building parts were good cover from snipers. Dickson and his men took cover behind the wreckage of a building and seek for another good hiding spot, when they did his team quickly ran to the place and took the cover. The rocketeers hovered slowly in the air to pick out hidden sniper.

Burst of Vulcan fire told a hidden position of snipers were discovered, all fires were concentrated on one building, soon the building with sniper turned into a pile of wreckage. Snipers were deadly to infantries but useless against tanks. With the clever use of armours to overpower sniper, one by one sniper site was eliminate, but with a heavy cost of lives.

* * *

It was complete disarray when the airborne division landed in the base. Although the attackers had some sorts of surprise base the soldiers in defense had the advantage.

American forces outside the base pushed in. Tank met tank, troop met troop in a bitter struggle. One side to destroy the beacon while the other to defended it.

* * *

Cmd Walker's tank took a turn to his right just in time to witness a group of tesla troops terrorizing local citizen. Although police officers were enforcer of law but it was a new world order, players don't play by the rule. Police cars were blown to bit when lightening bolts struck the patrol tank. Soviet soldiers shot everyone on sight, and the wandering civilians had nothing to defend themselves.

Rocketeers played a very big role in eliminate tesla troops, and suppress enemy infantries. But enemy flak troops were a big problem, fortunately with the support of tanks allowed small casualties. H24 attack helicopter fought marvelously against Soviet tanks, fighters planes were every effective because of all the blockage of structures but helicopter could hover in air not moving to deliver very accurate anti tank missiles.

* * *

Captain Moseby's naval fleet cleared all remaining submarines while cruised along the peripheral path of the lake to intend his naval force further into the area. In the air, rocketeers fired on troops below while destroyer shelled all visible Soviet installations.

Psychic amplifier base

The Soviets were struck from both inside and outside. It looked as if there was not airborne, all people on the American continent will become Soviet controlled killers.

Twenty minutes to go until activation. Captain James Becker and his seal team moved swiftly from place to place and constantly let go of a few bursts of silenced bullet at the crowd. He looked at his watch and look at the beacon. Not far away, only about five hundred metres between him and the objective, but between him and the beacon were hordes of enemy troops and tanks.

The seal team continued to move around silently until a small group of conscripts discovered them and fired. The shots were quite accurate; three comrades next to him fell. He returned fire with even better accuracy and killed all five conscripts. The remaining seal team moved on to get closer to the beacon when a tank spotted them. It fired with cannon and machinegun, Capt Becker's team was pinned down it urgent time, not dare to move a single step. On of the seals tossed a grenade but it exploded harmlessly next to the tank.

Clock was ticking and only fifteen minutes left the tank still pinned them down in the trench like a blue tack to the paper. One of the seals tried to climb out but was turned into metal shrapnel filled body. But much too the seal team's surprise a nearby A-10 heavy fighter flew by and brilliantly dropped a tank buster bomb. It hit where the tank was most vulnerable, its turret blew up, flowed with its entire body.

The path was cleared and the seal team burst out of the trench and ran for the beacon, firing along the way. Five minutes left and still three hundred metres to cover. From around the base other forces were also very close but not going to make in this amount of time. From the random shots, one seal fell after a five bullet penetrated his chest, another two died on the way. Only three seals left when they took cover again, but this time the captain had some idea.

"Francesco, Williams, give me all you C4 charges." Becker ordered "And be my wing man."

The seals followed order and game the captain all their charges. The captain armed the charges and set them exactly the same as the time left for the beacon to go online.

Two minutes left, the three seals sprinted as fast as they can while fired off a few random burst to there left and right. One minute left but the beacon was very close. William though they will never make and he didn't when a shot hit his leg and he collapsed onto the group. Francesco went closer but shots hit him in the back as he fell face forward. He barely had the strength to look up to see his captain accomplish the mission, blood coughed out of the mouth and he knew he had not long to live but hopefully before the crucial victory. After he saw captain Becker dived into the beacon he saw no more, everything went blank.

Three seconds, two, one. Captain Becker was only one meter away when he dived into the interior of the beacon. When the last second of the time on the charge became zero, all fifteen C4 went off to cause a humongous explosion.

The beacon doesn't seem to be damaged at all from the look of exterior, captain Becker's life was lost and his plan seemed to have failed. The psychic amplifier's timer was also up as it started to transmit electronic signals to the minds of all population on the America continent. The American soldiers felt a wave force thrust into their brain and severe headache followed, they started to lose their memories and soon their mind told them the message of serve Romanov and his Soviet Union. But a few moments later all their pains were gone again, the soldiers didn't know why but their memories and consciences also started to recover.

Becker's plan worked after all. The fire engulfed the base of beacon and the wall began to crack. The stumps of the beacon were mostly broken as the structure became unstable. The building crumbled as the top transmitter fell off and hit the ground, the middle part also broke to pieces and the entire beacon itself went off in a boom and exploded to a pile of rubble.

Success, the minds of the entire American continent were saved but for the lives in Chicago were in doubt. There was a hatch close to where beacon stood; it opened with alarm sirens and slowly the sharp top of the warhead rose and slowly its body and soon the entire missile rose to the surface.

The speaker cracked to life and the booming sound of a Russian came out.

"Listen you puny little Americans." It was General Vladimir's voice "You wanna play game with the might of the Soviet, them let's play."

Click were audible and a few clicks were heard. The missile was armed. "Meet you dooms, Americans." Vladimir snarled "Feel the power of Mother Russia."

One more click and the timer went on again and this time wasn't two hours but ten seconds. The battle had stopped; all eyes, Americans and Russian stared at the timer. Some stared with horror where some stared with enthusiasm to see what happens when the timer reached zero.

No one moved, no bird sang, no wind blew and no branch twitched, they just stood like been frozen. All bewilded eyes stared at the sudden bright light in front of them. Light stretched out and swallowed everything in its path. The light swallowed soldiers before they could have felt anything. The bright light quickly cover the whole city. No pain, no misery, no nothing, it all happened so fast, it all happened before anybody could anything. As for the city of Chicago, all you could say is that it's history.

From Afar

The detonation of the nuclear missile turned into a huge mushroom colored red, yellow and black. It rose higher and higher until beyond the clouds. The shock waves of the bomb shattered windows and threw vehicle into the air. Building crumbled soon after and in a mere few minute the entire Chicago turned into a land of radiation, wreckage and ghost.

It was a successful attack to destroy the psychic beacon but the terrible nuclear explosion killed the American troops and Vladimir's own.

Chapter 5: Dark Night

It was a sad and dark day. The gray clouds loomed over the sky of Detroit and the hailing rain added more misery. The president stood before all the tombs of heroes who lost their life in order to save the America continent. Other high ranked officers and the heroes' families were all at the place for the funeral. The funeral was nation wide and world wide, all nations' media channels were busily recording the scene, majority of foreign news reporters were also at the scene.

"I am President Michael Dugan representing Unit State of America." He began with a sigh "America was the first target of Romanov, join us and we will not be his last."

"Although the nuclear blast of Chicago cost millions of life, but we have shown that we will never bow down before Romanov and his generals." Duggan paused "I give my deepest regret and sympathy to the deaths of thousands of American soldiers and millions of innocents. But America will fight on, we must keep going until we lay rest to the Soviet Unions or until every one of us is dead."

The short but meaningful speech was finished but claps of all people at the scene seemed to last forever, even the new reporters stopped reporting and join the clap.

Kremlin, Moscow

"Comrade premier, seems like Project Red have failed." Yuri announced.

"The stupid Americans never learn, Chicago was an example to warn them not to oppose our Soviets Empire." Romanov was angry at the failure of the project red but little satisfied with the destruction of Chicago.

"Comrade Premier, comrade Yuri, good evening." The large video screen popped up and Supreme Commander Bendokoshyov of Western Front appeared. "Appears that with the destruction of Chicago, enemies seemed to have paid big attention to the news and the resistance have once again come up."

"What! News! How could they have seen the news." Romanov shouted with anger.

"Comrade, we do not know how but what we do knows is that it came from unknown satellite connection." Bendokoshyov reported.

"How heavy is the resistance." Yuri asked suddenly.

"Heavy in Germany and France, and numerous other European nation have a lots of guerrilla attacks on us." Bendokoshyov reported.

"Fuekardous Europeanias." Romanov swore "Teach the European a lesson like what we did to Chicago."

"That is?" Bendokoshyov asked the rhetorical question.

"That is nuclear retaliation on all major cities in Europe." Yuri said.

"Da, Comrades." After that Bendokoshyov logged off.

NORAD command center

The NORAD command post was big and very well guarded. The place was nuclear weapon proof and with the amount of supplies stored, they could feed more than four thousand people for longer than two years. A group of people came out from the super speed elevator. They were leaders of varies super military power nations, Lieutenant Eva led them the way into the complex.

"Good afternoon. I am Lieutenant Eva, the Intel officer of the American military force." She greeted the guests. "Please follow me to B23."

Out of the twelve people, seven were Europeans and other five from China, Australia, Korea, Canada and Israel. The guests entered another elevator and dropped down to Basement level 23 in lightening speed.

The door opened as all guests entered President Dugan's office. He shock hands with all other leaders with honour even he didn't like a few of them. All people sat down, fruits and drinks were served but no one had a feeling of eating

"Ah, it's nice to see you all here." Dugan smiled, "Let's get down to business shall we. We have been discussing about a aiding package with the alliance "

"Supposibility of an aid package." Chancellor Otto von Kutkan of Germany broke in.

"Okay, supposibility of an aid package." Dugan held the anger, where da heck are the help when we needed. "We have pre discussed on an agreement of exchanging troops and weapons in the service to the alliance."

"Mr. President" The French president and the Alliance Marshal Andre de Casson added in "As you know, it's a different situation in France, United State is very far away. But when all the conditions are met, I will take command immediately."

The video screen just popped up and the angry face of agent Tanya Adams appeared. "Now you just hold on a second, you people want my help well you have to help the United States."

She can't have said any better, all leaders nodded with satisfaction.

Prime Minister Margaret Stephine clicked on the display button on her personal laptop that was connected to the big video screen. The monitor flicked on and a spinning photograph of Soviet nuclear missile was shown, the Prime Minister started to explain.

"Agent Tanya, please pay close attention to the photograph in front of you. This is Soviet short-medium range ballistic missile launching site. They are placed along the Polish-Germany border. I am afraid they are a bit too close for comfort, Romanov's main intention is too keep us out of the war."

"Our men will go no where until this threat is eliminated." The German chancellor said.

"When the missile site is gone, we shall join hands and fight back." Everybody turned their head and looked at President Jung Kai of PRC (People's Republic of China). "However I have a requirement for the assistance of mine men."

"Please go on, we will need all helps we can get." Dugan pleaded but obviously he didn't want to do.

"As you know, we PRC are the only free nation in the world and the only nation that have nuke weapons." President Kai started, "And also as you know, with the current situation, without the help of mine men, even if all of you join up won't stop the Soviet aggression."

Everyone nodded at the fact.

"Another thing you all know is that we and the Russian have been allies for more than half a century." Kai took a sip of his tea "Although we are allies for now but will not last for long. As soon as they defeat you all, Romanov will turn his attention to our land. And until then we will not be able to defeat them."

"So what's your requirement then." Dugan became more frustrated more didn't show any on his face.

"If you want full assistance of my troops, tanks, planes, ships and nukes. I would like to expand the border of PRC." Kai sipped his tea again "That is if we win, Siberia will belong to People's republic of China and the rest of Russia will be for you all to divide."

Everyone looked around unhappily but they all nodded and so did the president.

"So we have reached the agreement of the aid package." Dugan asked

Again everyone nodded.

"Agent Tanya." Dugan turned to her.

"Yeah Sir." She waited for order.

"Destroy the missile site and the end of the war might be close. We are all counting on you." Dugan ordered.

"Yeah Sir." She saluted and ended the video transmission.

Landing Zone, Polish + Germany border

The bitter freeze and the darkness made the para-drop even more dangerous then Tanya thought. It was a sea of darkness from the view of the C130 transport. Everyone around her looked down because they were also unsure of the danger underneath but since there was nothing see Tanya looked away and closed her eyes for the final concentration before the drop. She visualized of what will be done there, endless waves of patrols, total enemy number superiority, columns of tanks, heavy base defenses and most importantly in her visualization, the site where the nukes were stored.

"ETA one minute." Tanya opened her eyes suddenly to hear the guys next to the transport door shouted out. She realized that the crucial moment had come. This was for the good or for ill. For good the Europeans will make an alliance and fighter back. For ill, she didn't go on because she knew it would be terrible.

Tanya looked around to see all her teammates. This time was not a small team of twelve but a lot, around forty seal members. Again to her amaze, she was appointed as the captain again, but with much more responsibility. Tanya took a quick count on her troops and noticed many she knew weren't there, KIA for most and some MIA. All her troops looked to be new but she had seen many of them before. One of the seal guy in front of her looked to be especially new. From a bare estimate, he would be no older than nineteen. He would be a rookie she though but a nineteen year old can get into the seal team was already a giant leap. From the eyes of the youngster, Tanya could see the fear inside him, and also his hands trembled violently, not from the cold but fear.

"Awright boys and girl let's jump it!" The instructor at the door called through his headphone.

With the order give, one by one the seal member jumped out of the transport plane and headed into unknown danger zone.

It was a successful drop to Tanya's point of view; no injuries, no patrols encountered and no one lost direction. An early success was welcome but mission accomplishing was still a long way off.

The seals regrouped under Tanya's order, everyone had to spread to cover more space. Flanks and rears were guarded and everyone backed up each other nearby. Everyone was issued with the German MP10 silencer attached submachine gun and half a dozen of C4s. Tanya brought her MP10 but she had a sense of using her dual pistols and any given moment.

They met their first patrol at 1300 hours on the farm road. In order to save bullet, knives were put to use. Two men and a guard dog were silenced, both men didn't let go of a single warning sound and the dog didn't get enough time before a knife stuck into its neck.

The second patrol was taken out without a sound too but guns were involved. It was a truck of drunken soldiers back from the town. All four wheels were shot and before anybody in the truck could realize, arch of machine gun fire left no one alive.

The seals were about to take a short cut through the farmland, but luckily a few who could read Polish spotted the writing of the local resistance force and stopped everyone. All farmers were forced away to somewhere else, and mines were laid on all farmlands to ensure to trespass.

All seals were told not to lit a light but use their night vision goggle. A Soviet M24 flying tank (Hind) flew pass just in time for everyone to take cover. To seals' suspicious, the defense weren't very heavy and barely any patrol was encountered on the way. Tanya climbed onto the tree to observe the nearby terrain, because it was a flat land the view stretched very far to the horizon. The walls, barber wire and sand bags were seen; a base was spotted not far from Tanya strike team's position. The base was not heavily guarded with only a few sentry guns at the entrances and some flames towers on the corner. Barracks were visible through the binocular and soldiers came in and out like normal. Power stations, vehicle storage room and armory were in the base while the most important structures, the nuke missile silos were right in the middle of the base and standing tall.

From the other end of the road, light could be seen as a convey of three trucks headed for the base. Tanya and her team waited for the best moment to ambush the trucks and use them to sneak inside.

Fake Missile Base

Flashes from silent machine gun fires from afar indicated that the ambush had been successful. Seals quickly went in the truck and continued their way into the base. It was a small base for a nuke missiles and its poor defense made Tanya suspicious, could this be an ambush she though. But there was no time to think. When all three trucks stopped, seals dashed out of the truck in lightening quick stroke and picked their targets.

It was a silent war. All soviet personnel around the trucks fell without a sound. It was all too easy to the thoughts of many seal members. The seals took defensive position around the base and seek out any hiding enemies. When there was none, C4 charges began to be placed on all missiles. Two C4s for a missile was well enough. It should be a quick mission as twenty-four charges were placed over all twelve missiles. When the timer was set all seal went back into their trucks and began to head for their rendezvous point. Tanya's suspicion grew bigger, all her teammate was already celebrating to each other for the mission accomplishment when a tank shell blew the first truck to bits.

Something did go wrong, the damn Soviets ambushed them; the missile base was a decoy to lure the attackers in. How did the Soviets know about the attack? Was there a leak? She though about them when a volley of V3 rockets flew into the air high and made a curve and was coming to into the base.

"V3s at three-o-clock, take cover." One of the seal screamed.

If the V3s were accurate all they would be all dead. The explosions were pretty big and the base trembled at its arrival. Lucky for one seal's good eyes, no serious injuries expect for a few bruise and scratch. Tanya had already lost one-third of her troops and she couldn't afford to lose any more.

The moving sounds of the tank treads were clearly audible from the base. The tanks were coming, and they had no weapons against them. But she turned toward and saw the C4s on the fake missiles. There were still thirty seconds left.

"Jackson, Ruddock, McCawly, disarmed the C4s quickly." She shouted while let go of a burst at the on coming Soviet troops.

The base was full of activity. The Soviet fired back with much ferocity; the tank shells blew a few holes on the flimsy walls. The troops marched behind the tanks for cover and advanced slowly toward the entrapped base.

Only five seconds were left before Jackson removed the last C4. All C4s were retrieved for other use. But the current situations were that all these C4s were useless if the user get captured or killed.

"I think we are surrounded by the Russkies and there is no way out." Laidley said.

"Oh, you think!" Crawly replied sarcastically while he let off a few burst and lobbed a grenade.

"Incoming V3s, four-o-clock look sharp." Kingsley screamed across the base.

The rockets went wide again but the fake missiles were blown to shreds.

The Soviets closed the ring around the base. Tanya thought of it for the first time that she might not accomplish this mission. Her MP10 ran dry as she let go her last clip on the Soviet conscripts. She upholstered the dual .45 colt and aced the first two shot and the two Russian only twelve metres away. The gunfight became more intensified when enemies got closer.

Suddenly tanks burst right through the walls and into the base itself. With no weapon against armours, Tanya grabbed her last two C4s and stuck it on the tank. A few seconds later the timer stopped and the whole tank turn into a fireball. Her method worked and soon the other started to use C4s on tanks.

Little success came with a fair lose, her team were down to half the numbers. Soviet troops had infiltrated nearly half the base. Seals were forced to hide inside the barracks for cover. Accomplish this mission seemed highly unlikely and death seemed imminent for all the still fighting seals.

The despair look of the seals and the current situation made Tanya felt even more hopeless. Suddenly one of the tanks blew up as an anti-tank rocket got a direct hit. Men and tanks rushed out of all directions from the forest. Russians were overwhelmed by the enemies. Rockets flew from the forest in the dark night, spectacular explosive occurred when tanks were hit. Although Soviet had better tank but the attackers were prepared. Every shot counted and every shot was effective. Under the completely unprepared attack, the Russian were greatly reduced in numbers.

When coast seemed to be clear, Tanya and her troops charged out to counterattack. It was successful, all Soviet remains in the base were eliminated. Although Soviets had more force outside but the guerilla force should keep them busy for a long time. Long enough to located the real missile and destroy the missiles.

Missile Base (real)

At 1600 hour Tanya and her troops encountered the local guerilla forces and was given the location of the real base. The missile base was in the center of a ring of forest. The base had been unimaginably powerful and guarded. The base was under fully alert at the detection of intruders. Tanya looked through her binoculars and saw the base defense was harder to get through then her thought. She looked at her watch and it was four in the morning, not much time left she thought, they would never get inside the base in daytime.

"Alright people I want a clean and smooth operation." Tanya began her order. "Lithgow, Walker, Cladimar. I want your guerilla forces to hold off any Soviet resistance and harass the base. While you guys keep the Russian busy, me and my strike team will move in and knock out the missile silos."

"Yes ma'am." Satisfactory came from all around.

"Awright then let's move out, we have no time to waste." Order was given and everybody knew what they had to do.

Phone rang inside the officer of General Khrushov at 1625 hours; it was from the Kremlin to launcher nuke missiles of European nations.

"Yes comrade Premier, I understand." Khrushov answered "Wipe out the entire Europe." He hanged up the phone with the premier and picked up another phone to the missile command.

"This is General Khrushov, order received from high command, launch atom charges at France, Germany, England, Italy, Spain, Ireland and Finland."

"Yes comrade Khrushov." The receiver said "Charges will be ready at 1800 hours."

Khrushov hanged the phone and sat down to lean on his chair, then suddenly the phone rang again and it was from the forward command post.

"Sir local guerilla force strikes again. We are being hit from numerous places and also we have lost our bait base." Sergeant Zhankosky sounded urgent.

"Fool, idiots, to you and the guerillas. Send out our force to pursue them immediately." Khrushov screamed through the phone with anger and slammed it when finished.

The guerilla force had been a big one this time, more than two hundred men were involved. But Soviets outnumbered them five to one, and Russian had tanks and numerous other vehicles to support them in the pursue. The missile base seemed to be nearly empty but the base defenses was most troublesome. But Tanya saw a weakness in the defense, all defenses required a lot of power in order to work, especially the tesla coils. The Russian soldiers' clothes had been great disguise. All seals were ordered to change into their uniforms and take their weapons and that means no more silencers.

The seal intercepted a truck on the way to base as everyone poured in. This time only one truck was needed because half of the team was dead. Not many can speak Russian; both truck drivers can, so can Tanya. But she sat in the back because this was not the time and job for a female. Tanya maybe a woman but in a soldier's uniform and from afar she looked much like a man. She lowered the cotton hat down to cover her long hair.

"Niado, niado!" The guard at the entrance told the seals to stop.

"offizere neo sha su kachize?" Brooklyn the driver answered the guards in fluent Russian.

"Nashido ka baku." The guard pointed to the back.

"Townno tor durunk." Brooklyn made the hand gesture of drinking.

"Okee, guro en quack." The guard let the truck in.

"Guys pretend you are drunk okay." Foley spun around to speak to the back.

"Okay we gettach ya." Everyone agreed.

The truck stopped near the vehicle parking lot and the power plants were nearby. Everyone jumped out and most people held a bottle of water in place of vodka. The base was huge but there was no sign of nuke missile.

No one paid any attention at the drunken soldiers as they wandered into the power stations. C4s were laid, two for each station and twenty-four altogether. They still had half a dozen charges left but they had to be saved for the nukes. But where da heck were the nukes.

Five, four, three, two, one. The area of the power stations roared into a gigantic explosion. The light of the whole base suddenly went out and the coiling electricity on the tesla coil disappeared.

While all Russian soldiers rushed to the scene, Tanya and her team headed into the base headquarter.

Headquarter inside the missile base

The bunch of Russian disguised American soldiers charged into headquarter. It was totally unexpected to see conscripts in here. The seals spread out to guard all corners; they opened fire at shot all personnel in the level. General Khrushov came out of his office to check out the loud noise. He spotted the fake conscripts before they spot him, he pressed the alarm siren and it sounded through out the entire base. He grabbed out his pistol and fired at the seals, two shot one in the head and one in the stomach ended one of the intruders' life but still twenty left. Tanya turned around to see the guy next to her collapsed and saw the Russian general about to fire again; she aimed her AK-47 and fired a shot right through his head. The General fell backwards onto the floor and left a heap of blood, he went into a spasm but died shortly.

"Neiat, neiat, vovoshowo." A bunch of Soviets charged into the building and a blazing gunfight started.

'Everybody, the entrance to the missile base is here." Tanya could hear Lawrence's voice through the headphone but could no see him. McLean threw a grenade at the Russian soldiers, it exploded beautifully in the middle of the pack and the shrapnel flew into nearby soldiers, wall and furniture. The accurate throw took care of the initial attack but more soldiers were coming, their running footsteps and speaking was clearly sound.

Tanya took ninety degrees turn towards left just in time to catch up with all the others. Two soldiers rushed down from upstairs and bumped into her, in sudden confusion she stabbed the bayonet on her rifle into one of the conscripts' neck and whacked the other with the butt of the gun and broke his neck after. She heard Russian language from behind, she turned at let go of a burst and the gun stuck, she tossed it aside and threw a grenade to hold off the purser. The grenade went off and terrible screams were heard.

She turned left, then right and left again to see the big elevator. The elevator was square shaped and huge will enough to fit thirty plus personnel. The elevator door was still open; everyone in the elevator was still waiting for her.

"You are late, lost in the complex." The young new recruit Hans joked.

"Nah, just saying farewell to our Russian friends. I'm sure a grenade will be a very good souvenir." Tanya joked back.

"As if they will ever use them again." Everyone broke into laughter for the first time of the mission.

Underground Missile Facility

The underground base was a huge complex, labyrinths after labyrinths of tunnel in the underground nuke missile facility. There were only half and hours left before the missile was fully fueled and to be launched. Security forces marched around the complex to get ready for the strike force but they never thought the enemies would be amongst them. When everything was so disoriented, nobody gave a damn about Tanya's disguised seal team. Until one of Russian Sergeants spotted them and told them to halt.

"Helt, nashita kuza bofeto. Whatto unites ziar you."

"Ehh, de Americana divisionire." Tanya answered him as she put a bullet right through the officer's head. Shouts came around the complex as the alarm went off once again.

"Elarm, Elarm. Ally trupper con be zeniardo area." The mechanical came out.

The entire underground base was like a huge maze. The seals took turn after turns and yet they were nowhere near the missile control room. A bunch of missile command security force charged out from their left and stared at the seals for a moment. Their uniform were a bit different, the seal disguised conscript wore a cotton hat with cotton coat but the security forces had slightly darker uniforms and all had a badge with a bolt of lightening on their shoulder meaning special security force.

"Wuchiniaz down hier." One of them said.

"To kick your ass." Tanya spoke in English and fired, the rest of the seals also fired. The security force was unexpected of the attack and all went down in the burst.

"The missile control room is in the next sector, c'mon boys we have to shut it down permanently." Tanya ordered while she kick opened the door leading to the next section of complex. From behind another group security force came out and found their comrades dead. Rawling and Harris threw two grenades at the group, no survivors after the ordeal.

The room became closer when signs on the corridor began to mention them. Seals were running as fast as they can to follow their leader. Seals took a final turn to see the door into the missile control room. They crouched down and crept up to the walls near the door. Through the glass window they saw and least a dozen-security troops and half a dozen engineer. There were around twenty seals.

"Okay, one on one." Ball advised everyone. So all seals picked their target. Tanya threw her Ak47 aside and took out the dual .45 and she kicked the door down and fired the first two shots. The rest of the seals charged in and fired on their pre picked target. The security force was taken down by surprise and they offer no resistance but the scientist pulled out of their pistols and fired inaccurate shots at the seal. In the point blank range five of their fifteen shot hit targets. Longmire and Stevens were two more unfortunate heroines of the mission. But in the spite of anger the seals fire back and killed all the scientists.

The Russian security force arrived at the other of the corridor and clearly saw the disguised intruders. They laid down a blaze of gunfire at the room. Windows, light bulbs, control panels were smashed to pieces. Tanya wasn't told of how to service of a nuclear missile but certainly can read Russian. Behind Tanya on the wall, the timer was only five minutes away from launch. Yet she had found no clue about how to operate the missile. Three more crucial minutes passed and only two left. The Soviets kept on coming from the corridor. Suddenly the hatch at the top of the base moved and the fueling pipe pulled back. The siren went off again to announce one minute til launch. Shit, Tanya thought but when she looked at panel a brilliant idea came up. She didn't know how to self destruct the missiles nor turn them off but she found the big red button saying "Dezarm." There were five second left. She quickly pressed it and the cracked missile command screen appeared with the words "Messale dezarmt." Success she though but why were the missile still moving up. Timer stopped counting and the fully fueled missiles fired up and lifted off and headed at all European nations.

Judgments clouded her mind where she nearly got hit by incoming fire. The seals retreated to the other room just before a grenade fell inside. From the back door the seal found a passage with no one security and while they searched around to find an elevator. The elevator was big and easily accommodated all seals.

Ground level of the base

Under the situation of complete disorder. The seal easily sneaked out of the base and into the nearby forest. On way to their rendezvous point the sound of helicopter blade was audible from above. The pick up team had come, time to go home Tanya thought and smiled.

It was a complete victory rather than a completely disaster, Tanya disarmed all the launched missiles. To the shock of Romanov the underground facility was later destroyed by smart piercing bombs of Germany air force. The missile only caused small impact damages on building, however Her Majesty wouldn't be very pleased with what happened to Buckingham Palace…

Chapter 6: Liberty

Things were changing, but all for the better of America. Soviet advance in many areas had halted but the nation's capital was still in enemy's hands. Given the European allies were freed from the horror of nuclear strike, they rallied again to fight for their freedom. With the chance to take a breath, the Americans quickly reorganized their near broken army to form their first counterstrike on numerous important tactical positions and bring their capital back.

De Kale army base, Canada

"Fellow staff members, please understand what I said back in Washington. I don't know what to say but as you all know I was mind controlled by the Soviets." Gen. Carville explained his strange behavior in US capital.

Some of the officers barely held off from brake into a laugh.

"Now Gentlemen, I think we should go back into our current battle situation in America." Carville began his analysis "So far the reds main advance have slowed down and other smaller advanced have halted to reorganize. Now I believe is the perfect opportunity to get a kick back to pay off some debut. We have fairly good defense positions already set up at our strongholds under siege. I believe if the Canadian forces are able to assist us in any way, then we have some free troops to engage the reds in our capital. A decisive victory in Europe has put the Europeans back on the fighting line. Oh, you must be very impressed with the Germans too, in appreciation they have put us in touch with their leading citizen."

Carville broken into a grin "Doctor Einstein, are you still there?"

"Ya, ya wait a moment." Einstein flicked the display button and his face appeared on the video screen. Albert Einstein was short so the camera had to readjust its height. Einstein was in his mid sixties, he wore a milky white laboratory coat with an old style watch in his breast pocket, although the watch cannot be seen but its chain hanged loose outside. The professor was a bit chubby (mainly due to working in the lab twenty-four seven), he had big white mustache and afro white hair. "Ah, its nice to meet you all. As you know war is not my vocation, I'm only a scientist. But Romanov and Yuri and his general will not control the mind and body of everyone on the planet. All they have is the psychic technology, but I have a few tricks too."

He walked over to his desk and picked on a blue print to something and laid it in on the scanner. The blue print shown up, the picture of a tube like structure appeared. The tube was thinner in the middle but bigger on the top and base. The top part was a cylindrical crystal as to the label's saying and the base of the structure was to be the generator and the converter.

"This is my new invention, it is called the prism tower. Your president have shown great interest in its applications." Einstein grinned "Let me show you a demonstration of its use."

An animated video demonstration showed up on the screen. The prism tower was standing tall coloured in blue and enemy tank in red. "As you can see, the prism tower is to be used as a powerful defensive weapon. It gathers its energy from the sunlight, when it's fully charged it launches a concentrated beam of solar energy at its target. The beam of laser will be super energized and will cause great amount of heat to vaporized most of targets." On the screen the red tanks got blown to bits by the beam charged out from the tower's spinning cylindrical crystal. Another picture appeared with one of the targets purple. "As you know gentlemen, the Soviet have technologies to create armour beyond our ability, some of their toughest tank will survive any shot." The beam was launched again hit the tank but it wasn't destroyed. "But as you can see one beam is not enough but with concentrated beams it is possible to destroy even the toughest tank on land. Now let's see, x times two to the power of y will make the new beam a hundred times stronger." At it was, two beams hit together and fire a combined shot and the purple target was blown to bits.

"Well thanks doc, I have just received a phone from the Canadian president saying they will aid us with the troops." Carville threw away his toothpick and picked up a fake hand cannon on his desk and pointed to the officers before him. "I'm am getting tired of hanging around in Canada. If we can take the capital back I think it will be the physiological turning point of this war. I want my office back!"

Washington D.C, American capital

It began with a seal para drop to take over the Pentagon and a tank rush to clear Soviet defense allowing convoy trucks to come in and set up the prism towers around the Pentagon. Thing quickly heated up when the Soviet forward post across river sent out continuous streams of strike forces to hit the American stronghold front and back. V3s were flying towards the Pentagon like hailing rain down from the sky. There were barely enough patriot missile launchers to intercept, waves after waves of rocket explosion over the structures head harmlessly but the force rocked all movable thing underneath, it was hell of a scare for the seals.

Reinforcement was not here yet, the seals were told to knock off all attacks at any cost. They barely stopped the soviet from overrunning the base around Pentagon. All thanks to the genius invention of Einstein or there was absolutely no way the seal could defend against columns of tanks. The beams from the prism tower shattered and blew up tank after tank. A column of a dozen Rhino will usually keep any American tank battalions busy, but it only took the prism towers a few minutes to reduce the tank made of finest steel into a large pile of metal wreckage.

After a few waves of unsuccessful kamikaze assault the Soviet full scale attack but increased the frequency of V3s rocket. There were now twice as many V3s raining down then before. If the last few ordeals was barely saved by patriot missile launcher that this time was impossible. Suddenly three full regiments of fully armed rocketeers flew into the airspace above the Pentagon from the South. Rocketeers were not only air supporting units but also aircraft killing expert. Since the V3s were also slower than fighter plane the rocketeers got the time to aim and fire their Vulcan and mini rockets. With the support from ground intercepting missile the incoming V3s have become less threatening. Most of the rockets were destroy a long way before it came anywhere considered to be close.

Mig Alley and Hind chopper arrived; they closed the distance to the Pentagon very quickly. They fired, the volley consisted of hundreds of missiles and rocket flew out. The Pentagon looked to be doomed but when the seal looked up into the sky again, another volley of missiles at a similar number also went toward the Migs. Apache attack helicopter squads arrive while followed by up to sixty Chinook. Fighters maneuvered, dodged, spanned and all sorts of tricks were put into play. The patriot missile and the flak cannons both opened fire at the swarming fly sized fighters from the ground. Dogfights lasted in the sky while the main stream of the Canadian strike force arrived. Soviets seemed to be winning in air but a few twist and turn later the American looked to be in advantage but Soviet won back the air superiority as the titanic struggle force air dominance continued.

The last and the most desperate attempt finally came when all Soviet force in the area came around to rush at the American stronghold. The Soviets outnumbered and out powered the Canadians at every occasion. The counter attack from the Soviets stopped the Canadian and pushed them back to the bridge. But victory of retake the capital finally came when the air battle was won with devastating cost. The American had only around forty fighters left out of their two hundred and thirty eight. But a win was a win; the fighters soon turned their attentions to Soviet bases and other ground targets. The fighters strafed troops and tanks while the bombers laid waste to the forward post to rabble by the carpet-bombing fashion. Tides was turning, the fanatically charging Russian looked to be doomed when the bridge they crossed got destroyed. With the air force's suppression, the Canadian fought back to even up the odds. Casualties mounted high on both side, the Russians slightly higher. The extra five hundred men helped a lot to turn the tide. The doomed Russian soldier turn into despair, but they fought on until everyone was dead in the suicidal attempt.

The battle was though to be over when still heavy resistance came from the Philadelphia center. Large portion of Soviet officer held the place refuse to surrender. The siege lasted for two days and was finally taken when the last Soviet soldiers blew himself up with a grenade alongside with a few Canadians. The decisive victory was won with an uncountable lose. But the capital was finally taken back to the hands of the Americans.

Things were getting better for the Americans; with a decisive victory in D.C the soviet fell back. Numerous other major city were taken back shortly after the victory in the nation's capital. The American must not make a single mistake or all they would lose everything they achieved so far.

Europe

The La Résistance in France and countries nearby were getting heavier against the Soviet, the main fighting was not as impression but anything to harass the Russian would do. England was still under night after night of bombing while coastal cities were constantly hit with Soviet Navy. However one naval fleet managed to brake out of the heavy surrounding and engaged the submarine fleets nearby. Germany fought back with fanatic attempt. Berlin, Munich and Frankfurt were all retaken and all have heavily fortified. The rest of Germany was still under constant battle but the hopeless chance against the Soviet had turned into a tiny little chance of victory.
