21st century Goguryeo

15:40, November 24th, 2023,

The East Sea, north latitude 43°20'20.37", east longitude 136°19'47.79, international waters (the Far East Fleet)

Following the words of Lt. Colonel Kim Hyuk-min, the tactical control officer, a total of 11 Haesung A anti-ship missiles broke through the Far East fleet's mid-range anti-aircraft network and penetrated into the proximity defense system,

After completing the pop-up maneuver, one Haesung A anti-ship missile, which fell at a frightening speed towards a definite target, struck the center of the Sobremenni-class Vestrasini (DDG-434) as it was.

Coo! Bang!

In a momentary explosion, the Vestrasini (DDG-434) with a full displacement of 7,940 tons was bent into a V shape, and then a strange roar that twisted the keel rang throughout the whole ship. Then black smoke rose everywhere with the soaring red flames.

Cooo! Bang!

The explosion did not stop and took place on both sides of the ship. The anti-ship missiles, which was waiting to be launched, seemed to have exploded.

And like this, as soon as the continuous hitting was all over the width of the Vestrasini (DDG-434), it was tattered to the point of being unrecognizable, and soon after a second Haesung A anti-ship missile flew towards it, it was quickly sucked into the sea.

Meanwhile, the Udaloy-class Admiral Panteleyev (BPK-548), which had been advancing at sea about a kilometer away, it had a huge cloud of flames that rose like a mushroom cloud with sounds of loud explosion. The sailors who survived the first blast jumped into the sea by instinct to live without receiving any orders to leave.

Captain Marat Izmilov, who was watching from the ship's bridge, clenched his teeth.

"We can't be the only ones who die like this. Tell them to fire anything that has finished reloading!"

Unlike Captain Marat Izmilov, who expresses his anger, Admiral Valerie Carpin gently closed his eyes and spoke quietly.

"What happened to the anti-ship missile we launched?"

At Admiral Valerie Carpin's words, Captain Marat Izmilov approached the telecommunications console and snatched up the communication gear connected to the battle information control office.

"What is going on with our anti-ship missile? Why isn't there a report?"

The angry captain's voice was heard in the battle information control room, which was busy intercepting the Haesung A missile flying toward the ship, when the startled combat information control officer immediately replied.

I'm s- I'm sorry. The report was late because of the interception situation. Currently, 121 missiles have been intercepted, and only 29 missiles have reached the close range. The types of missiles are 12 Granite supersonic anti-ship missiles! and 17 KH-35 Uran subsonic anti-ship missiles

Bam!

In response to something below expectations, Captain Marat Izmilov punched the top of the communication console.

"Damn it! I can't believe it's only 29 missiles out of 150 missiles. You said there are 17 subsonic missiles?"

The current Hokula destroyer's proximity defense system was more than 100% intercepting in the case of subsonic anti-ship missiles. That is why we should have expected 12 Granite supersonic anti-ship missiles, but the probability was not very high.

At that time, the operation officer Alexander Kerzakov, who was only looking at what is happening in the situation, made positive remarks for the morale of the crew members in the bridge.

"Captain! Even if all of our fleet's missiles are intercepted, there are still 98 missiles left, including Kinzal's hypersonic missiles and there is the Maritime Task Flotilla Seven. That is enough missile volume for destruction."

Captain Marat Izmilov, who briefly calmed down at the operator's words, and while watching the Admiral Panteleyev (BPK-548), which shows now only a part of the mast through the bridge's window, He sighed and said.

"Whoo~ Our fleet's revenge should be ended with our fleet's missiles, right?"

"It isn't that there's nothing we can do about it, right? So..."

Operations officer Alexander Kerzakov soon closed his mouth, blurring the end of what he was saying to see if he understood the captain's feelings.

In the middle of this conversation, the destruction of the Far East Fleet continued. Even the last Sobremenni-class Bezvoyazenenny (DDG-672), which was advancing from the right side of the Admiral Lazarev (CGSN-181), exploded after being hit by two Haesung A missiles.

When the sound of waves tearing the air along with the sound of explosion hit the bridge of the Admiral Lazarev (CGSN-181), various objects in the bridge was shaking.

- Bezboeyaznenyham attack! Bezboeyaznenyham attack!

The operator's voice screaming from the combat information control office rang throughout the bridge on the communication network.

In the meantime, when Alexander Kerzakov ordered a second anti-ship missile attack, it launched supersonic anti-ship missiles reloaded from the Kirov-class and flagship Admiral Lazarev (CGSN-181), the Lider-class cruiser Spiridonov (CGN-902), and the Bezpritzni (CGN-904).

And as soon as the Udaloy-class Civil Vinogradov ship (BPK-572), which was late to reload, was about to launch an anti-ship missile, when the entire bridge was blown away by the Haesung A missile that broke through the proximity defense system and exploded. As a result, the anti-ship missile just before launching was stopped without and did not accomplish its mission.

Bba- bba- bba- bba- bba- bba- bang! Bba- bba- bba- bba- bba- bba- bba- bang!

Numerous metal bullets fired by Azak Rail gun from the Lider-class cruisers, the Spiridonov (CGN-902) and the Bezpritzny (CGN-904), decorated the cloudless blue sky.

Several red metal bullets beams were being constantly bent like taffy, it followed everything. And soon something exploded in the air.

It was one of the two Haesung A missiles aimed at the Bezfritzni (CGN-904). However, the remaining one eventually exploded by hitting the helicopter hangar on the ship's side of the Bezfritzni (CGN-904). Two KA-28 anti-submarine helicopters flew mercilessly as they were caught up in the explosion's power.

Numerous fragments flew in, and the ship was horribly torn that sea water came in rapidly. As a result, the Bezfritzni (CGN-904) slowly began to tilt toward the ship.

And the speaker inside the ship either with the captain's order or another commander's order, but a pressing voice rang out the order to retreat. As a result, many sailors rushed into the sea from the left and right sides of the ship.

But November's north-east sea water is cold. It hasn't even been a few minutes, when all the sailors showed symptoms of hypothermia and their death became clear.

While the sailors struggled to live on the rough waves, the air defense cruiser, the 3rd Lider-class ship Spiridonov (CGN-903), also launched a dodging maneuver from the left and the right sides, and sprayed Azak Rail gun's metal bullets while intercepting the Haesung A anti-ship missiles. However, unfortunately, it finally hit the bridge and the function simultaneously.

When the huge explosion broke out at the same time in both places, the 18,000-ton at full-scale Spiridonov ship (CGN-903) was shaking up and down. Then, a blazing high-temperature red flame wrapped around the entire ship. As a result, the crew could not even scream and were burned into a lump of black charcoal, and even the hard steel softly melted in.

Hundreds of crew members miserable lives ended like this at some moment, just like those who committed crimes in their previous lives and fell into the fire of hell, and the Spiridonov ship (CGN-903) followed them.

And like this, the last air defense cruiser, the Spiridonov (CGN-903), sank into the sea with a series of explosions and rising black smoke, and all what was left was the flagship of the Far East Fleet and the second Kirov-class ship, Admiral Lazarev (CGSN-181).

As his fleet turned into fire pits one after the other, and sank into the cold Northeast Sea, Admiral Valerie Carpin called Operation officer Kerzakov in a hoarse voice.

"Operation officer!"

"Yes, admiral!"

"Contact the landing ship and ask them to change their route immediately and surrender."

"What?" We surrender?"

Surprised by the word of surrender, Alexander Kerzakov asked back, but Admiral Valerie Carpin nodded instead of answering. Then, he fixated his eyes on the captain's display.

Currently on the captain's display, anti-ship missiles fired from the Far East Fleet appeared to be marked with a symbol of a blue triangular point.

"I hope to see a South Korean destroyer sink by our fleet's anti-ship missiles before I die".

Captain Marat Izmilov spoke with emphasis at the words of Admiral Valerie Carpin, who was complaining.

"Admiral! What do you mean one destroyer? All six ships can be buried."

The captain's words were nothing more than just wishful thinking.

After switching to the pop-up engine, three Haesung A anti-ship missiles, rising above in the sky, rushed toward the last combat cruiser of the Far East Fleet, the Admiral Lazarev (CGSN-181).

A report was urgently posted from the battle information control office.

- Brace for impact! Brace for impact!

At the fourth gate of the Hazard Rail gun, metal bullets were sprayed at a speed comparable to the speed of light, but only one succeeded in interception just before the collision, and whether it was bad luck or the performance of the weapon fire control system, as for the remaining two, they hit the function and the ship.

Bang! Bang!

The Admiral Lazarev ship (CGSN-181) was severely shaken by the impact of the first explosion. And so, the crew members in the bridge tried to hold on to all kinds of structures in preparation for the impact, but they were blown in all directions, and rolled on the floor at the instant of impact.

Admiral Valerie Carpin also fell on the floor and hit his head against the wall, and Captain Marat Izmilov and Operation Officer Alexander Kerzakov were also in the same conditions.

The floor of the bridge was littered with fragments of broken windows scattered chaotically on it, and from which the crew's moans and crying could be heard.

Uugh!

Save, save me!

Arrrgh~

Operator Alexander Kerzakov grabbed the console in front of him and struggled to get up to find the admiral. Admiral Valerie Carpin had his head hit into the wall at the back of the bridge and then he collapsed.

"Are you okay, Admiral?"

Operation officer Alexander Kerzakov, who struggled to walk, looked at Admiral Valerie Carpin. It looked fine except that a part of his head was broken and some blood was flowing out.

"Ugh! I, I'm fine. What about the Captain?"

Admiral Valerie Carpin looked for the captain as if he was coming back to his senses.

"Please wait a moment."

Operation officer Alexander Kerzakov turned his head around and found the captain among the fallen crew members.

Captain Marat Izmilov was lying on his face in front of the communication console.

"Captain, are you okay?"

The operational officer, who approached and tried to make the captain lie down correctly, was surprised and fell back.

The fragments from the bridge's window were embedded not only in the captain's face but also all over his chest, turning into a hideous look. At the time of the explosion, it seemed that he received the fragments of the window intact.

"Damn, Damn it! Admiral! The captain was killed."

"What?"

Admiral Valerie Carpin, who regained his senses, lowered his head when he saw Captain Marat Izmilov, who crawled slowly and turned into a hideous look.

- This is the battle information control room! I am a military officer. Please respond to the bridge. Please respond to the bridge.

A communication came from the battle information control office.

"What, what? The controller, blah- blah, did the officer contact you?

- The controller has been killed. Are you retreating?

"What do you mean retreat? We have to fight until the end"

The operation officer yelled at the communicator.

- But, some systems in the control room are currently out of order. It is impossible to fight back.

"Damn, damn it, wait"

Operator Alexander Kerzakov turned his head and looked at the ship over the broken window.

The blazing red flame soared as if dancing, and the width of the VSL (vertical launch pad) in the ship was worrisome.

It was only retirement. However, only the highest commander in the ship could issue the retreating order. That is why, he approached Admiral Valerie Carpin, who was sitting with his head down without saying a word, and said urgently.

"It doesn't look promising anymore. I think it would be a good idea to give the order to retreat before there is a vertical launcher destroyer for the ship."

"Yes, retreat, order the entire ship to retreat."

"Yes, sir. Retreat! Retreat! It's an order to retreat."

The crew members of the bridge got up one by one at the commander's shouts and tried to get out of the bridge, and the communications officer opened the entire communication network of the ship and spread the retreat order to the whole ship.

"It's the admiral's order. All crew members should retreat! Retreat! Retreat immediately!"

"Let's go. Admiral!"

Operators Alexander Kerzakov tried to help Admiral Valerie Carpin up.

Admiral Valerie Carpin shook hands with the operations officer and spoke in a sincere voice.

"I want to share my destiny with the ship's family. In fact, I would rather see the result of the enemy ship's sinking."

Admiral Valerie Carpin, who was speaking a lot of incomprehensible words, walked slowly, sat on the captain's chair, and fixed his eyes on the captain's display. Fortunately, the screen of the display was still working normally.

"Admiral! You have to leave now."

"Did you not understand what I said? Hurry up and leave with yourself and the other crew members."

"Admiral!"

"Heavens! This person, it is an order. Just leave quickly."

"I'm s, I'm sorry. Admiral!"

Chock!

Operation Officer Alexander Kerzakov, who made a military salute with his hand, swiped the flowing tears with his sleeves and left the bridge.

"Yeah, you too will go back alive."

He said with difficulty as he watched the back of the operation officer who was leaving the bridge. Then, he turned his eyes to the captain's display again. On the screen, several blue triangular symbols reached close range towards the red square dot representing the Maritime Task Flotilla Seven destroyer.

"Cheer up a little bit."

Admiral Valerie Carpin was killed eventually without seeing the results of whether the Far East Fleet's anti-ship missile attacked the Maritime Task Flotilla Seven's Hokula destroyer or not.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Various missiles mounted on the vertical launch pad of the ship causing an explosion, and the formidable explosive force blew away the entire bridge.
