MIC RP #004b: Retribution - The Siege

13:27 HVT (Hvarvikhavn Varymbundeþen Tiþe

"Eyes up."
The 101st, 102nd, 103rd, 104th and 105th Spectre Legions head through the frozen arboreal forests of northern Norderon, travelling at roughly 40km/h due east-southeast, in a convoy made of 40 M3-VII APCs.

"Kamperir!"
Sergeant Major Johan Pryter-Sklesigen calls for the attention of the 102nd Spectre Legion over the comms system.

"We will reach Blacksite-17 in 2 hours, and our convoy will resupply there. Then, we will be carried 500km south to our target. SLs101, 103 and 105 will cover the northand north-western sides of the compound at a distance of 10km, setting up a perimeter which will be continued around the target by our allies. 102 and 104 will set up perimeter charges on the northern side, which will be detonated. These charges will open up a sizeable portion of the compound to the snipers of 101. 102 will then utilise their ÝKKERNAGT to breach an entrance, and 102a will enter, followed by 102b and 104.

Shoot to kill, folks - we're dealing with terrorists here. Var de Yrskrejk, eg var vor Koneg."

The Cand Youkeonan Troops have arrived at Karakol base in Cslymy in LF-17U Military Cargo jets, and are undergoing final preparations for the expedition up north.

UWR special forces have infiltrated the North East of the area, neutralising 22 suspects with tranquillisers. These are currently at the temporary camp 1 km from the site.

Caia Flavia

We have locked down the North East Facility. 3 armoured vehicles were intercepted escaping from the north. Awaiting reports from other teams

Our forces have located an abandoned warehouse in the woods 13 kilometers southeast of the main facility. We found rifles, grenades and boxes of ammunition scattered all over the floor. There are numerous vehicle tracks outside the facility in the dirt, and we have identified 4 distinct sets of rubber tyre tracks and 3 sets of tank tracks. They looked rather fresh, not more than 4 days old. It seems that whoever was using the facility has left in a hurry. The army officials interviewed some villagers in a small fishing village west of the warehouse, but it appears they had no knowledge of what went on inside.

The terrorists must have gotten wind of our expedition, and are now retreating their forces to defend their main base. We must be more careful.

Cslymyian forces intercepted a few vehicles of terrorists, around 20 personnel. Our Battleship however, managed to capture in time a few boats of terrorists trying to flee via the area via the sea of teleros. Around 35 terrorists were captured, with many guns and explosives, although 7 of them self-detonated.

More military personnel and tanks have been sent in also to deal with the threat. They now reside near an abandoned warehouse found, to make use of the ammunition and supplies left behind. The Cslymyian Air Force is heavily patrolling the dense tundra.

Operation Russia has been a partial success. We need to block escape routes to Aurelius and to the "Pacific" ocean. The Sakhal islands are used as major outposts for surveillance vessels in the "Pacific"

We also have to guard the sea of Teleros, lest the terrorists escape to the underdeveloped Max1mosburger with the shady government, where it would be much harder to find the terrorists. They may also used the remaining uninhabited land to escape from the sea of teleros to outside continents without passing through the Yrsk passage.

A Cand Youkeonian Stealth UAV has scouted the terrorist complex, finding a large amount of armored vehicles, including approximately 20 tanks and 35 other armored vehicles including APCs and artillery pieces parked around the place. An accurate analysis of the vehicles was not possible, but it is certain that they must be stolen from the Yrsk, Lymian and UWRian armies. The armored vehicles appear to be rather outdated - around 15-10 years behind our current equipment.

There were no signs of any fighter aircraft or helicopters, but they must have been stowed in the hangars, given that there is an airstrip and helipad right outside the compound. Around 20 small boats adorning machine guns were found docked at the navy base, alongside 4 other larger ships that resemble corvettes. Images appear to show military drills being conducted by the terrorists in a field beside the compound. There are approximately 10 AA guns located on the roof of the buildings and on the ground. The compound appears to be encircled by a tall and thick concrete wall around 4 metres high, with guard posts at every corner. The UAV has also located jeeps, camouflaged tanks and concrete bunkers stationed in a 1km radius around the complex, possibly as lookouts for enemy forces.

Our forces are now stationed behind a hill 2.5km away from the compound, waiting to strike at any given notice.

[16:37] SL101, 102, 104 arrive, forming a perimeter 2.3km from Compound X.
[16:39] SL103 and 105 arrive at Strike Point Alpha.
[16:45] SL103a plants 7 of the 11 breach charges on the northern concrete wall of the compound.
[17:00] The 7 charges detonate
[17:01] SL103a enters.
[17:02] SL103a encounters 10 armed combatants. A firefight commences.
[17:05] SL105 JYKKERNAGT cannon opens 5 openings on the north-western face of the compound.
[17:10] SL103b enters.
[17:11] SL101-LK kills one armed combatant.
[17:12] SL103a finished firefight. No casulaties, 9 terrorists deceased.
[17:17] SL103b encounters a group of 3 unarmed men. All are executed.
[17:25] SL103a-a returns to the forward point with 2 captives.
[17:45] All rooms of Compound X Section T1 have been secured. No sight of Chenowicz.

Interrogation of Subject EE-T6: A Transcript

A: Where is Chenowicz?
EE: F*** you.
A: Don't make me ask again.
EE: I'm not gonna tell you, c***.
(B punches EE in the stomach twice.)
A: Where is Chenowicz?
EE: Gone.
A: Where has he gone?
EE: Wouldn't you like to-
(B places a hot poker onto EE's arm. EE screams.)
EE: He... he went south! Please, just stop!
A: Where is Chenowicz?
EE: *grunts*
(B raises the poker again.)
EE: Ah! Stop! I'll tell you! Chenowicz went to Cslymy! He's going to free someone... uh... a chemical weapons expert.
A: Why should we believe you?
EE: He... he threatened to kill my family. I had to work for him. He knew someone would come for him, and took off, leaving us behind to deal with you.
A: Why should we believe you?
EE: Believe me or not, he's planning something big. You should be careful.


All nations are advised to disregard EE-T6's claims and continue to infiltrate the compound. 27 minutes after the transcript ended, EE-T6 attempted to escape whilst yelling 'Chenowicz will restore the world!'. EE-T6 was neutralised using a 50 kilovolt subductive charge distribution device.

Intelligence has reported that large bands of terrorists are fleeing to the boreal forests east of the compound, towards the Sea of Torderos. Following orders from Military officials, the Youkeonian expedition splits into 2 teams, where team A will set up an ambush along the road leading east, and team B will directly attack the terrorist base.

17:30 Team B silently makes its way towards the southern wall of the compound. Armored vehicle full of terrorists was captured en route, 10 terrorists detained. No resistance since terrorists were defending against Yrsk Forces.
17:34 Heavy self-propelled guns fire, causing concrete wall to crumble.
17:38 Fighting ensues. 47th division took fire from terrorist divisions but fought back fiercely. 12 Terrorists dead, no Youkeonian casualties
17:42 Attack helicopters dispatched to aid divisions against armored vehicles. 2 Terrorist tanks destroyed by anti-tank missiles. 3 buildings crumble to the ground from our Artillery fire. 5 concrete bunkers destroyed.
17:47 60th division identifies generator room and destroys the electric generator, cutting off communications for terrorists.
17:50 5 terrorist APCs gun down the troops. Some injured, but none in critical condition. Our tanks destroyed the APCs.
17:55 Firefight between 60th division and group of 40 armed terrorists. 34 terrorists killed, no casualties. 6 taken captive by Cand Youkeonian troops.
18:03 Terrorist helicopter attempts takeoff but gunned down by 47th division. All crew members killed, and airstrip is secured.
18:11 Most of the southern part of the complex secured by Youkeonian troops as more reinforcements arrived via air. Still no sign of Chenowicz.

18:39 Team A finishes setting ambush along eastbound road, 4km from terrorist base.
18:48 First sightings of terrorist convoy heading east. 5 tanks, 13 APCs and around 20 trucks observed.
18:50 Tanks and SPGs open fire towards the terrorists on both sides. All enemy vehicles destroyed, 8 terrorists taken prisoner.

All our prisoners refused to speak when interrogated, so they were executed.

Security stepped up at Cslymyian prisons.

Many more warships have been sent to the Sakhal Islands as a springboard to patrol the Eastern coast of "Russia". Although icy waters make it difficult for navy action, there are many planes carrying out surveillance on the area.

More forces are on the way to the terrorist bases. They will engage shortly

Kuo tang-ming (Senior Officer, Ministry of Defence Department of Border Control (UWRMODDBOC)

The Ministry of Defence, department of border control has stepped up the patrol at the UWR-CSLYMY border. More forces have also been sent to monitor the Sikarataka straits. We will alert all of you if you see anything.

After almost 20 days of fighting, the terrorist compound was finally secured by the Youkeonian troops, with much assistance by the Yrsk, Lymian and UWRian soldiers. In total, over 200 terrorists were killed in the furious battles, but thanks to our advanced technology and highly-trained combat units, not a single one of our trooos was lost. The reason why securing the compound too so long was because it was discovered that the terrorists had a complex network of subterranean tunnels that extended almost 200 metres below the surface. Not only was ammunition and provisions stored in the tunnels, they were heavily fortified and filled with booby traps that our soldiers had to dismantle one by one. The terrorists put up a good fight, nonetheless, wounding many of our soldiers before being neutralized.

General Eden Farley

We discovered a good number of documents in the vaults underground. Many were not very interesting, but a small handful were about prototype weapons of mass destruction designed for them to achieve world dominance, such as world-ending viruses, nerve agents, even nuclear bombs. It still beats me how those disorganized terrorists were able to have such grandiose plans. However, we were unable to find any trace of Chenowicz or any documents that mentioned his name anywhere. These barbarians likely burned them before we could get our hands on them, what a pity.

Lieutenant Colonel He Eni-yo

Thanks to all of our efforts, Chenowicz's forces are largely defeated. However, the papers found by Cand Youkeons imply that more forces are still around, albeit little. Cslymy will continue to patrol the wilderness to find suspicious activity, as well as survey the captured terrorist territories for more clues. This issue is no longer urgent and no longer a priority. Thank you to the governments of Cand Youkeons Yrsaland and UWR for helping us for the sake of World peace.
