Rasputin of the East

＜ Episode 343 >

Korea, Busan.

“Hey, there friend.”

“what?”

“I’m bored, let’s talk.”

“……”

The two men sat down.

“You say you’re from South America?”

“okay.”

“Then why are you stuck here?”

“… America got me in here. Don’t say anything, I don’t hate Americans. I just hate America.”

The man asked for a cigar.

“I was born into a wealthy family. But he wasn’t an official son. It was an illegitimate child born to a housekeeper.”

The opponent looked at the man with clear eyes.

“I later became a lawyer, and there I entered the student movement.”

“Did you have food?”

“And I saw, how much Americans abuse Latin American countries.”

“……”

“Of course, that’s not going to work for ordinary Americans like you, because in the world the other 99% is exploited by the very few wealthy people in America’s heartland, the 1% elite.”

“At least…..”

“I don’t mean to say anything about America, I just want them to get out of our country and live on their own. Now even the country is gone, but the Cubans have never had a proper homeland.”

“What do you mean, Cuba was an independent country until World War II…”

“Can the puppet government of the United States be seen as a truly independent and independent country? That’s why I got into this fight, because even if I can’t liberate Cuba, I can at least erode American influence by fighting in South America. My brother and Che will devote their lives to that fight. And this time… Although the military money was insufficient, the purpose was more to open up connections with Russia.”

“Because I have connections with Russia, I haven’t even met Russians.”

“You can’t be satisfied with the first drink. How are you?”

“…….. What.”

He laughed bitterly.

“It’s a common story, I was born in a rural village in Arizona, mixed Indian, left home as a child to join the Marines, served in the Chinese War, and then one day I was captured and tortured by Coolies.”

he spoke softly.

“My co-workers couldn’t stand the torture and died, and those motherf*ckers put me dead for half a year or locked in a crypt with dying co-workers. Then he was rescued.”

There was a little anger in his voice.

“It wasn’t a war, they did anything in the name of victory, and they couldn’t tell the difference between civilians and guerrillas, so they were ordered to kill them all, and then they did, but the thieves gave orders to shoot civilians and Never hit their stronghold! There is a clear way to win, but he told me not to do it!”

“……”

“Yeah, and when I came back home, they said I was a murderer, bastards who had never been there! Damn, what if it were you!”

“calm down.”

“…… I couldn’t survive without medicine. There were drugs everywhere in China, and I had to take drugs to sleep. But… he expelled me for that reason, denying all my honor by saying that drug addicts can’t be in the military. So what could I have done? huh? Did you give a job or a proper job to the abandoned buggy in the military? Or did you give a pension to a disgraced veteran?”

“……I would be lying if I said I understood, but that is the imperialist contradiction. I only saw it in books.”

He sighed and patted his colleague on the shoulder.

“Why don’t you join us instead?”

“no.”

He shook his head.

“I have a daughter left on the mainland. My wife died early. You should at least leave the property to the child. To do that, it would be difficult to be officially pursued by the U.S. government.”

There is no way the nuclear warhead case can be arbitrarily placed in a court of law for the United States, or the money can be confiscated in the name of proceeds of crime or the like.

After being put in court, the cabinet ministers and generals will have their throats blown one after another, and the president will have to stand at the parliamentary hearings.

Moreover, they said they could help with asylum if necessary, and in fact the money was supposed to be received through a German bank.

No matter how prosperous America is, it cannot touch financial transactions beyond the Iron Curtain.

“Ah, yes, I didn’t think of your position.”

“I left it to a trusted friend, but that doesn’t mean I’m not worried.”

Saying so, he found a cigarette.

“Smoke this.”

The Cuban offered a cigar, put it in the mouth of an American, cut off the cap, and lit it with a match.

“Thank you, I smoke all my cigars.”

“Give me a few more.”

The Cuban rummaged through his arms, pulled out a box of cigars, and gave it to him whole.

“There are 12 cigarettes, take them.”

“Can I take it?”

“If it’s an apple, it’s an apple, it’s all from Cuba, but it’s not a luxury product.”

“For one thing, I don’t know how to smoke a cigar.”

“I’ll teach you, when you get back.”

After smoking cigars for a while, the two opened their mouths.

“Are you familiar with guns?”

“It’s hard to say I know as well as you, didn’t you formally learn?”

“okay.”

He naturally lowered the M69W rifle he was wearing on his back.

“I didn’t learn much at the training camp, although I accidentally met my aptitude.”

Aiming his rifle, he aimed at a bush.

“But it would be better to take shooting lessons later. The rats are crawling in.”

-Tata tata tang!

As the 5.45mm rounds were fired, a scream was heard, followed by gunshots.

-Tatatang! Tata Tata Tata!

The familiar AKM rifle shot, he quickly hid himself and let out.

“The CIA bastards, let’s welcome them warmly!”

“ね!”

“Kane!”

“I’m okay! I’m stuck in my body armor!”

CIA agents were wielding an AKM, a Russian-made rifle.

The body armor was worn by the US because it did not leak from Russia, but in fact, even that was sold by an offshore company made in the Russian Empire, and the performance was very poor compared to the product made in Russia. It was sold to the United States by an offshore company established by the Russian Empire’s intelligence service, which was rejected as a defective product because its performance was not stable.

Because bulletproof materials such as Kevlar have not yet been made, it was difficult to block handgun bullets, and for the United States, which was barely making, body armor that could block rifle bullets was an irreplaceable item.

-Tata tata tang!

However, the disadvantage of this system’s body armor is not to the extent that the bulletproof performance varies depending on the angle of the bullet…

“Jacob was beaten!”

The point was that the bullet sometimes even slipped through the gaps in the bulletproof material and pierced through it as if it were through a slightly thicker vest.

-Tatattattattatta!

– Kwak!

A grenade exploded and the Special Forces crew fell.

“No time! We must seize the nuclear warhead!”

“Eavesdropping on police radio! Korean police and soldiers are coming!”

“time is?”

“Based on armed forces, 10 to 15 minutes! The dwarfs are already approaching from the other side! Wait… Damn it, we need to get out! An armed helicopter has landed from the Sea Area Defense Command!”

***

A helicopter with two rotors up and down quickly approached.

The armed helicopter, which was heavily armed with a gunpod and rocket launcher, was clearly engraved with the markings of the Republic of Korea Army.

– Beware of gunfights between armed forces, speculation of having heavy weapons, and anti-aircraft fire.

“Confirmed. headquarters.”

-All units, headquarters. To reiterate, it is speculated that the current gunfights are at least armed Special Forces forces. It’s not like a gangster, so be careful, it’s extremely dangerous. In case of resistance, fire unconditionally.

-6 Airborne Brigade Special Forces split on the truck. Currently moving to the site. It is necessary to support the military police and cooperate with the police force for vehicle control on national roads.

– Currently, Route 51 is under control…

-RPG!

-headquarters! Announce! Enemy troops have RPGs! There have been casualties among the police!

-The cops tell me to get out of here! Why are you still chattering here? This is a military operation!

-The Ministry of Home Affairs has not yet issued an order to hand over the situation to the military…

– Hey, you bastards! Now, starting with the minister, it’s time to spread out and sleep in the house, when will those humans wake up and receive orders! I want to kill all my subordinates and withdraw! get out right now! This has crossed the line you can finish with your rifle! Bring your rockets or, if not, bring your mortars too!

“We have arrived at the airspace.”

“Operation of night equipment.”

“A dragonfly for the ground team, there is no distinction between friendly and foe. Repeat. There is a risk of an accidental explosion because the ally and the enemy are not distinguished.”

***

“Shake.”

Team leader Taylor was abusive.

Helicopters were heard, and troops were visible.

“These cops have heavy weapons.”

“Military forces have begun to surround this area, and it is not completely closed yet, so if you want to get out you can get out.”

“Taylor, what should I do now?”

“It’s plan B. If we can’t fully retrieve the nuclear warheads, we should at least make sure they don’t take them.”

“What are you going to do?”

“Anyway, if it falls into the hands of the police, it will eventually fall into the hands of Russia. It must be completely destroyed.”

“I can’t get over it. Totally open, they have machine guns, they have night vision goggles.”

“I paralyze the night vision goggles with white phosphorus bullets, and then I’ll take care of that. Have the other team members install the booby trap and withdraw. I’ll buy you some time, there’s still a place where the siege is not blocked, so get out of there.”

“What?”

“There are fishing boats prepared in advance on the shore, so get on them and retreat to Japan.”

Other than that, it seemed that the only way to save the team members was to surrender.

And if they surrendered, there would be no way for the US government to kindly negotiate for their release, and there was a very, very high probability that they would stick their flippers out, saying they didn’t know.

In the first place, the CIA and the US military have traditionally been doing that.

There may be a way to escape to a diplomatic mission where extraterritorial jurisdiction applies, but it is impossible to escape to the embassy since there is no US diplomatic mission in Busan in the first place. The embassy is in Seoul in the first place, and the consulate-general is in Pyongyang.

However, if you only get out of western Japan, you can do anything. Unlike South Korea, where the Russian military is stationed, West Japan is a clearly pro-American country, so the US can somehow intervene even through secret vessels.

And, he is in charge.

If only one person could be sacrificed and everyone else could come back to life.

It’s only natural for him to do it.
