REIWA JIGOKUHEN - Chaotic Disturbance of Reiwa Era

Chapter 110 - Preparation for Entry

Washington, D.C.: Government District

Major Kellerman was the commander until recently, but now he is a prisoner of war.

Of course, it was intentional. He and his troops who were no longer useful surrendered, deliberately allowing their equipment to be confiscated and themselves dragged to the ground. Then, as soon as communication with friendly forces became possible through the previously set-up communication equipment, their files would be automatically transferred. There was no communication equipment in 1945 capable of such a feat, so it was unlikely anyone would know what was happening. There was a possibility of being shot on the spot as a traitor, but that was not very likely. Besides, even if they only carried the communication equipment to the ground, the objective of conveying the most important information would be achieved – that was the idea behind their surrender.

The validity of their decision was immediately proven.

After surrendering, Kellerman and his men were brutalized, especially the Asian-looking Staff Sergeant Chang. However, as planned, they were all taken to the ground. On the other hand, the people of this era were completely unaware that the communication equipment was operating automatically, and at most, they noticed the notification sound of the transmission being completed. Then, after some time had passed, the familiar sound of wings began to be heard. The soldiers, who had raised their guns, thinking something was wrong, were quickly disabled by the low-power VALS. Of course, Kellerman and his men, whose facial images had been registered, were not affected.

"Major, your pickup has arrived."

"You're earlier than I thought."

Kellerman managed to sit up and respond, offering his gratitude. The lieutenant in front of him was a member of the Army's 160th Special Operations Aviation Regiment. Kellerman remembered that they had also picked him up two years ago with their sturdy subordinates. Everything now seemed like a dream, but they had gone to Syria to collect a sample of a chemical weapon similar to a pain reliever lozenge that the Russians had smuggled and then destroyed the trading base. Of course, they were not the same reliable guys they were at that time, but they still shared the same spirit.

"So, what's the situation?"

As soon as he was carried into the MH-60, Kellerman asked.

"Have you been in contact with Sutherland?"

"We're hurrying to set up a relay, and it should be up soon."

"That's the most important thing now."

Kellerman felt somewhat relieved and glanced at the capital, which had become half rubble. Captain Sutherland, who had taken over command, continued his reconnaissance mission with six lightly injured subordinates in the White House underground structure. They were probably advancing around the ruins of the former Treasury Department building by now. They needed to restore communication before they could obtain information from them or issue additional orders.

"And Major, this is for you."

The lieutenant handed him a terminal and said, "Everyone is in chaos, and your opinion is also needed."

"Understood."

Kellerman nodded briefly and faced the chaos that needed to be dealt with.

Washington, D.C.: Sewers

"Hmm, it seems direct infiltration into the bunker is still difficult," said Captain Sutherland who had been assuming command, groaning as he received the report.
