The War That Transcends Timelines - 84 Phase Six-Seven Part I/II

Time: 5 Minutes after the Captain’s Death

Location: Gunther’s Temporary camp

POV: Gunther’s

‘Phase Five is taking its sweet time.’ I thought as I looked at my watch, Suddenly a massive explosion came from above and immediately the Obj.289 is engulfed in flames. ”WHAT!” Someone shouted at the lookout post. I check my Radio, one light, 2 lights, 3lights! ”EVERYONE PREPARE FOR ENGAGEMENT WITH THE ENEMY!” I shouted to get everyone’s attention, The crew reacted quickly, they dropped what they were doing and hopped into the E 50s, ‘In God’s name what happened?!?’ I tried to get a reason why this is happening but nothing comes to mind!

The 6 E50s already started to accelerate towards the compound as machinegun fire could be heard all the way here, ‘The Ravens must have started their Assault.’ I analysed, ‘Chink’ ‘Boom!’ A Panzer III that just started to accelerate exploded into a thousand pieces as his ammo storage was hit. ”FUCK!” I shouted, ”All E50 Tank commanders bank left, we have enemies on our six!” I said over the radio, The Panzer IIIs didn’t get any new commands so they continued on their path towards the compound. ‘Chink’ Another shot was fired but bounced off the sides of the E50, ”Commander, what are those!” A commander close to me shouted as he pointed at some tanks in the distance, ‘Small moving ships?’ I thought, But the closer we got the more I wished they were something else. ”KEEP MOVING 2nd BATTALION!” I shouted at the Panzer IIIs charging towards the Compound’s gate, ”FIRE!” A commander shouted and immediately the Howitzers on the early Panzer IIIs fired causing the gate to be obliterated. The Panzer IIIs and trucks successfully enter the compound, ‘I am sorry comrades, I will probably not be able to come with you.’ Gunther said in his mind as he turned around to face the enemy again. ‘Heavy Tank destroyers, thick armour on the front, relatively think armour on sides, and very thin on the back, Large calibre gun, depending on speeds values.’ I analysed the TDs in front of me. ”MEN! Use Tactic 132!” I shouted through the Radio, the tank commanders reacted immediately, The 4 tanks in the middle started to use a zigzagging while one tank on each flank started to fall back and rive in a neat line behind the 4 tanks. ‘Ching’ One E 50 bounced a shell of the sides skirts while the front armour absorbed the impacts of the other incoming shells, ”WHAT ARE THESE MONSTERS, SIR?!?” A commander shouted over the radio, ”I DO NOT KNOW!” I said desperately, Our guns fire at the enemies weak spots, with stabilised Guns, better rangefinding, etc, It should be easy, but even the lower Glacis plate is not penned by our gun.

”SIR WATCH OUT!” A commander shouted as he pointed at Two heavy TDs(Tank Destroyers) coming from the left flank, ‘How did they move so fast!’ I questioned, but that question will be unanswered, as the enemy Tank Destroyers fire upon Gunther’s tank. Immediately the fuel inside was set aflame…

”Goddammit, they completely skipped Phase six, what are we to do?!?” I said to my partner for this operation, ”Shush.” He replied, we walked silently through the Barracks, only one or two soldiers were laying on their beds, but they were not breathing, they all died from choking. A loud sound came from the entrance as a commander kicked open the doors, ”GET UP LADS, HOW CAN YOU EB FUCKING SLEEPING WHEN A FUCKING HUGE ASS EXPLOSION JUST HAPPENED!” He shouted as he kicked a soldier from his bed, but only saw how the soldier limply fell to the ground. During the turning, he saw the choke marks. ‘Shit!’ I cursed in my head, The commander slowly backed off to the door pointing his pistol in front of him, ”Whoever you are, I am not afraid of some black cats!” The commander said defiantly, ”How should we proce….” I wanted to ask my partner only to see him no longer in front of me, ‘Great, he abandoned me.’ I thought dejectedly, ”You should not be afraid of black cats, but out black hands.” A man said from behind the commander, ”WHAT!” The commander shouted as he immediately swung his fist towards the person behind, but it as all too late, 4 pins were pushed into his spine, the Black hand stood up and held the needles to keep the commander’s body from falling limply to the ground, ”You are going to be a price to our Marshall.” The man chuckled while licking his lips, ‘God! Why are all my Partners so fucking scary!’ I shouted in my heart while looking at my Partner, ”Don’t worry, these needles only inject a fluid that blocks all motoric neuron signals to the limps, it will wear off in a day or 2.” The Black hand continued to say, ”Come on out, he is neutralised, go tie him up.” my partner ordered.

I tied the Commander up before hauling him on my back, ”I will go get the documents from his safe at his office now that we have the keys, you go to the Designated area where Her Gunther is.” My Partner said, ”Yea yea, I’ll go.” I replied before dashing my way through the compound, gun sound can be heard as Ravens make their way through.

Time: During Phase Seven

Location: Motherbase

POV: Mackensen’s

”HOW! HOW DID THEY BREAKTHROUGH OUR AIR DEFENSES!” I shouted at my vice-commander,

”I I I do not know sir!” The Vice-commander replied, I calm down and take a deep breath before looking sharply and suspiciously at the people around me, ”Well, there is no point bickering about it, men, how are we going to stop this Airborn Invasion?” I asked my men. A man came in his hands shaking, ” Sir.. I I am sorry to interrupt you, but…” The man spoke more softly as he got pressured, ”BUT WHAT!” I shouted to get his attention back on me, ”We have detected a large mass moving on our Radar, and we can’t identify it, I came here to ask for your help.” The man finished. I beckoned one of my Radar specialists to go check it out before continuing with the meeting.
