Chapter 3 here. Hard to write while the heat is unbearable, I live in the Philippines more specifically Asia's Latin City of Zamboanga. We have power shortages, water shortages, and mosquitoes. But still its fun here. We just find a way to live with it.
Pero Chinga bien kalyente gayot sempre aki. Dol ta kusi ya miyo kabesa.
Kudos to who understood that.
Gnaoh El Mart – I don't know much about Vietnam or Korea but I'll try. Though I have to make some research first.

May 12, 1990
Falmart, Romaria Mountains
As I walk through the dead, mangled, blown bodies, my thoughts came to what happened last night.
When we came through the gate it was night and the Imperials was caught by surprise, it was clear that the soldiers didn't know what to do seeing that they found their officers killed in their sleep and their general was missing, add to the fact the explosives placed in the camp by the Spetsnaz group killed many of the more experienced soldiers further help sent the Imperials in disarray.
The Imperials did the only thing they could do. They charged head on.
Over 10,000 soldiers dead, in 30 minutes.
After the air was cleared of dragons the Shilkas turned to the Imperial soldiers. The Shilkas quad guns mowed down rows of Imperials, in seconds.
The Imperials tried to turn back and run but their exit was cut-off by BMPs and the infantry they carried.
With the Imperials in the center of the killzone their number rapidly declined. The Gvozdikas helped in the slaughter as they pounded the center of the trapped imperials. The infantry used their grenade launchers, the tanks used HEAT and Phosphorus rounds cooking the imperials.
This would later be known as the Romaria BBQ cookout.
The one sided killing took a toll on the team, mainly on the Tamaki brothers, since they never seen action before, especially like this, after a long talk with them they learned to cope with it.
'Though I should recommend them to speak to a therapist.' I said to myself.
The information gathered from the captured Imperial General says that this area is called the Romania mountains, he says that this area was an iron rich mountain and that many mines where in the area, but all of them where slave labored. It became our objective to liberate these mines. But the last information he gave us shocked us to our core, he said that this gate was found recently and that there is another gate to the south, back on the other side, Soviet high command went to high alert after hearing of this and tries to find out who had the second gate and that building a base on the other side of the gate was now a high priority.
I continue to walk until I spot Captain Malashenko.
I walk to Captain Malashenko's tank and I see him with Lieutenant Romanov.
"Comrade Captain, the men have finished putting the last of the imperials out of their misery." I say to him as I saluted him.
"Good work Lieutenant, these primitive barbarians think they could come to our world and start conquering, this is what they shall receive." Captain Malashenko says with a look of anger and disgust.
"Da, Comrade Lieutenant, you did an excellent job." Lieutenant Romanov says to me.
I saluted them but before in could leave Captain Malashenko calls out to me.
"Lieutenant almost forgot, Colonel Orlovsky wants to speak to you." I nod and start heading to the command tent.
I entered the command tent. And it was filled with officers and technicians who where trying to set up the tents interior.
I walk to Colonel Orlovsky at the command table and saluted him.
"Lieutenant Itami reporting as ordered Comrade Colonel." He looks up from the table.
"Good, Comrade Lieutenant, I called you here to inform you that you are to command a small team for a reconnaissance mission in the nearby area around the mountain. Your secondary objective is to make peaceful contact with the natives here and inform them of our intentions, and if all goes well they might accept aid and protection from us." The Colonel explains the mission.
"What of the other gate sir? Or the slaves in the mines?" I asked the colonel the questions that have been plaguing my mind.
"High command is doing everything they can to find out who has control over the other gate, and Spetsnaz and other special forces have already been sent to secure those mines and free the slaves. Is that all Lieutenant?" The colonel says to me.
"Yes Comrade Colonel, when will we leave?" I say with no hesitation.
The Colonel smiles at this.
"You will leave with Recon Team Six in an hour, Dismissed."
I saluted him and leave, I head to my squads barracks to brief my men.
1 Hour Later
Me and my team leaves for our mission. We had a BMP-2, a BTR-80 and a UAZ. The BTR was mainly loaded with food and supplies to give the natives to earn their trust.
As we move through the country side Seiichi couldn't help but comment.
"Wow! The skies are so clear! And the air is so fresh!" He says from the BMPs turret hatch.
"Settle down Seiichi, we get this kind of sight at Hokkaido to you know." Says an annoyed Seitaro.
"Come now Seitaro, let the boy have his fun, its not every day you get to see the skies of a new world" Boris says with a smile.
"Papa Bears right, we should enjoy the little things" Miguel says as he drove the BMP
"Yeah yeah" Seitaro says, clearly not winning the battle.
"I hope you guys have been reading up on your Latin or we'll never get any results from this mission." I say to them.
"Don't worry Yusuke, I made they learned it. Especially these two idiots." Yuri says, referring to the Tamaki twins.
Then the radio crackles to life.
"Comrade Lieutenant, Its Sergeant Furukawa. There's a settlement in front of us and it looks to be under attack." She reports
I head up to the turret and take out my binoculars, I see smoke starting to rise from a small village in the distance.
"Affirmative Sergeant, get your self to a good vantage point and provide sniper support, the rest of us will assault the town." I ordered and the team disembarks from the transports.
"Comrade Lieutenant, I see 40 foot soldiers led by an officer all wearing imperial armor. They are gathering the civilians at village center." Sergeant Furukawa reported.
"Understood Sergeant, terminate the officer on my mark, but make sure to watch your fire. We want to get the civilians caught in the crossfire."
We all move to our positions. Our vehicles would draw the imperials to the main road as we would attack from their flank.
When the villagers were gathered the officer took out a scroll and started reading.
"By the order of Emperor Molt this village is to be razed to prevent the enemy from using it against the Empire!"
'Scorched Earth tactics I see.'
"Corporal Alonzo move our vehicles in but don't engage, we can't risk hitting the villagers."
I ordered the vehicles to start moving towards the village, drawing the attention of the imperials, and they line up together to form a shield wall.
'Perfect' I thought, as I see that this will make thinks easier.
"All units fire on my mark….. Mark."
Furukawa shoots the officer, earning a clean headshot, the rest of us open fire on them from both sides with our AK-47, and Yuri with his RPK drum magazine.
One by one the imperials falls, their shields were paper to the high powered assault rifles.
"Cease Fire! All units cease fire!"
I ordered as the last of the Imperials fell dead.
The villagers look at us in shock and awe, never have they seen soldiers wielding weapons that could kill Imperial soldiers in seconds.
"Free the villagers and tell them we mean no harm."
I ordered my men. I surveyed the damage of the village, and saw many of the houses were burned down.
'They will need our help to rebuild their lives, but only if they want us.' I tell myself as I take out my radio.
"Corporal Alonzo move our vehicles in and start unloading the supplies. These people are going to need it." I tell Alonzo
"Yes Comrade Captain".
I walked to the villagers and was called out by Sergeant Kurugi.
"Comrade Lieutenant! The village chief has some information for us." Doc tells me.
I walk to them and sees the elder chief.
"Yes Sergeant? What information does he have for us?"
"The village chief told me he met some villagers from a place called Coda village in the south, fleeing from a fire dragon. But they had help, they said they were from an army called the JayEssDeeEff and they had weapons similar to ours." Doc reported.
This made my mind go a mile minute.
'JayEssDeeEff? An acronym may be? JSDF? SDF means Self-Defense Force but what does the J stand for?'
"Is that it Sergeant? Did they tell him anything else?" Doc shakes his head.
'Damn it, but this confirms the existence of a second gate and a foreign force probably from our world is here."
"There's more sir." Docs says with a grim face.
'This can't be good.'
"He says that there is a slave camp near the area and… and the recent slaves that were brought there… spoke our language, both Japanese and Russian."
I felt my stomach drop. But was immediately replaced with rage.
"Thank you Sergeant, and tell the chief we owe him a debt of gratitude." Doc nods.
I reach for my radio and calls Alonzo.
"Alonzo, Get me Sokol-1 NOW!" Clearly my tone surprised the Corporal and immediately contacts command.
"Da, this is Sokol-1, what is it Lieutenant? Your radioman sounded urgent" Colonel Orlovsky said through the radio
"Apologies sir, but this is urgent" I say to him as I reported what happened to the initial assault.
"This is grave indeed, the Imperials are getting desperate and have begun using those tactics. And confirmed reports of a foreign power here is unsettling."
"There's more sir…." I hesitated.
"Yes Lieutenant, what is it?"
I swallowed the lump in my throat.
"We have… confirmed report of… Japanese and Russian civilians taken to a slave camp near the area." I managed to say then I held my breath.
There was a deathly silence on the radio.
"Get over there and scout out the area Lieutenant. While our aerial forces prepare to assault the camp." The Colonel Ordered with an authority in his voice.
'Aerial forces?'
"We have aerial support sir?"
"Da Lieutenant, it became a priority to move all required forces through the gate after high command was told there was a second gate" The Colonel said.
"I see. I shall head to the camp and scout it out sir." I say as the radio goes dead.
"Sergeant Furukawa, get the car here we're going on a recon mission."
A few minutes later we arrived near the slave camp
We preached ourselves at a hill and looked down at the camp.
"Troika here, we are a minute out, what is the camps layout Lieutenant?" The lead pilot says.
"Troika I copy, I count about 500,soldiers in the camp, the walls are made of wood, most of the slaves are in pens to the south of the camp, I don't know about the tents but I assume there are slaves there also, but their barracks and mess hall is devoid of any slaves" I reported.
"Roger Lieutenant, camp is in sight. Beginning attack now."
I look up to see 8 Mi-24V HINDs, 6 Mi-26 Havocs and over 15 Mi-8 HIP transport helicopters.
The HINDs fired their missile pods at the barracks, killing over 200 soldiers instantly.
The Havocs made short work of the dragons in the camp, some never made it in the air.
Five of the Mi-8 transports rope dropped troops at the slave pens while the rest dropped in the middle of the camp.
The attacked lasted only 10 minutes and soon the slaves were freed.
Nearly all of the slaves had bunny ears, when we asked them who they were they said they are a race of warrior Bunnies and that they were attacked and enslaved by the Empire to only be used as a relief for the soldiers.
Many of the soldiers blood boiled at this information, much to the shock of the Bunny warriors.
One of the slaves asked as who we where we told them we were the JPA and the USSR.
It was funny how they pronounced it 'JayPeeAy' and 'YueSeSAr'
Ura! Ura! Ura!
I turn to see the captured Japanese and Russians cheering at the soldiers soon the bunny warriors also starts to cheer.
Huura! Ura! Huura! Ura!
Thus the Soviet Union Liberated
So what do you think? I probably won't update for a day or two cuz the heat is killing me. My head feels like its about to explode.
