Summoning The Union

(Side Chapter) "Green Hell" pt.1

3 Hours after the attack on the USEAN Embassy

Kovrin Island

The small island of Kovrin is just 30 nautical miles from the mainland, it may look empty and just full greenery and jungle forests that resembles Peleliu. However, this is the Khaela Mehn's hidden training grounds, USEAN drones lately been spying on the island for any soldiers and activities

This was to soften the Khaela Mehn military's operations and before USEAN launch a rescue mission to save the personnel that was still in the embassy building, the USEAN soldiers that are being sent to secure this island are the 7th Marine Division

They'll be sending ten to fifteen thousand Marines, supporting them are 10 AAVs, 20 LAV-300s armed with a modified turret and a 100mm canon with an autoloader

Along with them are 8 MRAPs and 25 Logistic Trucks also 22 drones with their operators

At the UNS Sinag (LHD-22)

20 miles from Kovrin Island

"Alright, listen up..." Their chief officer for this operation said with tired tone, him and his other fellow Marines haven't slept for nearly a day now since the declaration of war

"Here... Is our target, "Kovrin Island" the size of Peleliu and its jungle is just as dense. The "cooks" or the Khaela Mehn soldiers who attacked our people in the embassy is now guarding on that island"

Then the chief officer circled it with his laser pointer where their enemy is suspected to be, "...Here, is where our latest intelligence report got. They've seen activities and even movements via thermals, we've suspected that they're trying to fortify the area itself"

He then changed slide to a more detailed one, the map is now labeled where suspected landmines, tunnels and even machine gun nests are located. "Our brothers in their motorpools back home made us an early Christmas Gifts..."

Several chuckles came from the men, the chief officer then change the pictures of two ACH-47D. A modified and armed chinook with 6 machine gunners ( 2-Left gunners, 2-Right gunners; both armed with .50 cal Ma deuces and 2 MK40 auto grenade launcher gunner at the front and rear), it was also seen carrying 2 rocket pods

"Yes gentlemen, we're doing this "Vietnam War style". So before any of this royal ass whooping to these "cooks" go on, raise your hand if you think this is too racist..." None raise their hand, except for one...

"Is it too racist for you, private?" The chief officer asked, but the private chuckled and shook his head. "No sir, I only wanted to know when's our deployment ready". Everyone laughed, including their officer.

"1400 hours, private. So suggest eat, sleep or just jerk off if you want to because this is going to be a long and bloody campaign" The Marines nodded, especially the private, they were then dismissed to tend to their equipment or just enjoy for a bit before their deployment

Meanwhile on the deck

Personnel are seen prepping the ACH-47F with ammo and rocket pods, one even was strolling in five boxes of .50 cal ammo into the chopper

"Damn, those are a lot of ammo..." One Marine mused as he observes the crew briefing the pilots and gunner of the Chinook

"Tell me again, how old are these things?" The Marine beside him asked as he was eating his reheated Pho

The other Marine shrugged, "...I heard those were built about a year before the Invasion of Iraq against growing insurgents back in the 2000's"

"Old but still functional machines..." the Marine nodded, they then saw the crew of those Chinooks enter. As its Honeywell engine whistling to life, then the two rotor blades starts to spin picking up speed even spilling the broth on the Marine's uniform

As they flew towards Kovrin Island to rain down and scare the hell out of the Khaela Mehn soldiers who were currently defending it

Timeskip:

Kovrin Island
Khaela Mehn Military camp

Soldiers were huddled up around a fire pit that they've made, one soldier was seen sleeping while the other is seen roasting their latest catch. It was merely a quiet night... But they were in patrol

They then heard their commander stomping in to their warpath, "You fucking cunts!" He shouted and doused the fire "All of you were supposed to be on patrol and not some holiday camping trip!"

As the soldiers heard him, they immediately stood attention including the one who was sleeping but he was still groggy. Their commander saw this and smack the soldier's head, "And who the fuck told you to sleep, Private?!"

"Sir! No one, sir!" The soldier shouted in attendance

"Then why the fuck are you sleeping?!" This time, the said soldier was quiet as he couldn't say anything

"... Pathetic, all of you! Tomorrow, all of you are all court martialed to desertion" He growled, as he was about to leave he heard a rapid chopping sound

Then hell broke loose, rapid gun fire is raining down on them. Other soldiers who were close by were shot or have their limb blown off by .50 cal bullets, a single fortunate soldier managed survive when one of the Chinooks flew above his head. Blaring incoherent music

The elf soldier ran toward their nearby barracks and aquired a shoulder-fired surface to air missile launcher. It beeped rapidly then pulls the trigger, the heat-seeking missile launched at a subsonic speed towards the nearby Chinook...

Meanwhile

One of the ACH-47F Chinooks is seen circling around their camp, then a surface-to-air warning came blaring in

"Pelican Actual we are being painted, I repeat, we are being painted. Sending out chaff..." The pilot radioed as he flip a switch

The missile luckily followed the countermeasures and explodes, they then hunted down who launched that missile

Back on the ground

The elf soldier was stunned that they've created a countermeasure for their most advanced invention currently, he started to sweat and ran away but before he gotten far. The Chinook maneuvered right beside him...

His body was then peppered with .50 cal bullets, he was turned to literall swiss cheese before he could shoot them with his Polaris auto rifle
