Rudolf"s POV:""COMMANDER WAKE UP!"" A Major stormed into the room. ""What is it major for you to wake me at this time,"" Rudolf said while getting out of bed. ""THE ENTIRE ENGLISH THEATER IS UNDER ATTACK!"" The Major shouted desperately. ""What?!"" Rudolf screamed. ""All sector heads have been woken up and are running towards the command centre where the Oberstleutnant on watch will brief us, sir!"" the Major shouted. "Kyle is in England!" I immediately rush towards the command centre, I take the wheel of the jeep as I gave full gas, you could see 13 cars of the sector heads speeding through the base from all directions. The alarm flared up at the highest alert, 3 Pz III/IVs moved from the depot to their designated areas. Soldiers ran towards the trenches ready for combat, artillery positions were being prepared for bombardments.
The doors were opened by the white skulls as I ran to the centre of the building. ""SIR!, COMMANDER, SIR!"" All kinds of hasty salutes were given by the Sector heads. ""Oberstleutnant Start the briefing IMMEDIATELY!"" I Ordered Harshly. ""YES COMMANDER!"" The Oberstleutnant replied, he took a big breath. ""01:32 Our time the Supply bases Navarro, Flameridge, Splinterlake and Phantom were hit by an unknown enemy, completely wiping out Supply base Navarro, Splinterlake and Flameridge. Phantom currently has 3 External members left. They reported an enemy, equipped with Thompson machine guns, light grenades, and all black combat gear attacked them at 01:30, they already infiltrated a large portion of the underground supply base before launching the attack, but luckily they couldn"t get past the newly build MG34 nest, causing them to retreat eventually. But our casualties were 7 external members, 2 of them being of the sapphire level sir at the Phantom base. After striking the enemy left without a trace, but it doesn"t end there, our Intelligence outposts Eclipse, Twilight and Twinsword were all attacked, and sir, Twinsword is the current outpost our Marshall resides in. Twilight was completely annihilated through a large explosion, we heard it while communicating with them. Eclipse is currently fighting, but the situation is looking grim, 23 external members are already dead or poisoned, the other 7 are currently fighting. The 10 Black hands stationed there were all on a mission they already left heading towards Twinsword to support the Marshall. And with Twinsword... I am sorry sir, we are unable to contact them, I fear the worst sir."" the Oberstleutnant reported and bowed down before exiting.
It was completely silent in the Command centre, gloomy faces were on all the faces of the Sector heads. It was General Mackensen who stood behind the Marshalls chair that spoke up. ""I Suggest we vote on our current course of action, I have 3 plans we can vote on, each has their pros and cons gentlemen. Plan 1 consists of mobilizing our Black skulls to defend the outposts and thus increasing defence, but weakening our current base and spreading our resources thin. Plan 2 consists of concentrating our resources into 2 bases in England, One supply base, one Intelligence outpost, this allows us to concentrate our defences. but slow operations everywhere else. Plan 3 would be abandoning the British Isles and spread our bases more through mainland Europe."" ""HOW DARE YOU PROPOSE PLAN Nr.3! THAT WILL MEAN ABANDONING OUR MARSHALL!"" The sector heads shouted in Unison. ""I do not abandon him, but I have FOUGHT SIDE TO SIDE WITH HIM! HAVE YOU!"" Mackensen said while giving a piercing gaze at people. He continued:""I know the Marshall, he is cunning, this won"t kill him."" The Sector heads started to debate on the plans.
""THE VOTES ARE IN!"" a Hauptmann who counted the votes said. ""Plan 1, 3 in favour, plan 2, 5 in favour, plan 3, 5 in favour. "" he shouted, than he continued:""UNDER RULES OF LAW, PAGE 12, SEGMENT 5, LINE 16,:""When a stalemate has occurred the Marshall has the right to vote as well, in the Marshall absence his right-hand man represents his vote."" ""CURRENTLY a.s.sIGNED BY MARSHALL AS RIGHT HAND MAN IS AUGUST VON MACKENSEN! CAST YOUR VOTE!"" The Hauptmann said out loud. ""I choose Plan 3. We will return later, now is the time to conserve our resources!"" Mackensen said. ""SIR OUTPOST ECLIPSE HAS FALLEN!"" The Oberstleutnant came running in the room again. Everyone"s faces turned ugly when hearing this, ""Oberstleutnant!"" Rudolf called. ""YES COMMANDER!"" the Oberstleutnant replied. ""ORDER THE IMMEDIATE WITHDRAW FROM THE BRITISH ISLES, ORDER 90 IS GIVEN I REPEAT ORDER 90 IS GIVEN!"" Rudolf shouted. ""YES COMMANDER RELAYING ORDER 90 TO ALL UNITS ON THE BRITISH ISLES!"" The Oberstleutnant confirmed before running off to the comms station. ""I want all sector heads to remain on High alert, DISMISSED!"" Rudolf waved his hand signalling they could leave. The sector heads were still debating if this was the best course of action. Rudolf stood up and walked towards Mackensen before putting his right hand on his left shoulder. ""Mackensen, you better have good judgement, if the Marshall dies I will make sure none in here will live because our Marshall"s life represents ours."" Rudolf removed his hand and walked off.
Kyle"s POV:
"Dammit, they keep coming, are the f.u.c.king Russians, who uses the human wave tactic in this era?!?" I curse this old tactic which will most likely beat me. ""Sir ETA 10 minutes please hold on"", one of the 4 officers of the gold skulls replied. I aimed my MG again before pulling the trigger, this is the 20th time a hail of bullets came down, but they do not stop, a mountain of bodies is forming beneath the stairs. ""How much you have left Mr White? 1000 bullets? a million? It doesn"t matter, we will drain them."" A man said through a mic outside the building. "Dammit, I am using TUs Here NOT AMMO!" My heart bleeds as I see the TU counter slowly go down. When suddenly I get attacked from behind, "YAAAAAAA" A man screamed as he stormed at me. I put the barrel on the stair railing and used my right hand to continue to pull the trigger, but the left hand quickly unsheathed the Tanto and throw it at him, "Splitsch" Without even looking I pierced the heart of the enemy. I continued firing, whilst pulling out the m1911a1. "Time to get the h.e.l.l out of here!"
