High School Soldier
Dream of a country
Rivers of blood flow throughout the battlefield, as well as corpses scattered here and there, creating a heartbreaking and disgusting scene in the style of the battlefield.
Location: coastal Wonogiri City.
The enemy numbers thousands of human soldiers and monsters and warships, while the comrades 200 people without heavy vehicles land, and fire assistance from the sea and air.
A holographic display appeared on the helmet of one of the newly awakened Indonesian soldiers from his stupor.
[Soldier Two ‘TRIP’ Nio Candranala.
Status: live, and fight bravely.
Weapon: SS-17 V-1, 100 rounds of ammunition left
Injury: not detected]
A frenzied voice resuscitated Nio, making him see his current state through a hologram on his combat helmet. The radio transmission attached to Nio's helmet made the young man hear the screams of comrades and enemies being killed in various ways.
“Commando to the whole squad! The enemy's true strength has been confirmed. We confirmed an enemy unit of five regiments consisting of an army of humans, flying lizards, and monsters. The number of enemy ships as many as 30, we do not get help from a single KRI!”
“Cannot be! They're gonna slaughter us!”
“What's the reverse order not given yet?!”
“Country plans to make this place our mass grave!”
Squad commanders up to the company voiced such heartbreaking protests, but the commander of the squad who became Nio's superior actually replied, “Understood, here the commander of Squad 1. I can feel it from here.”
“The next command will be given to all commanders in the fighting field soon. Show gratitude to your homeland with blood and flesh, and defend the Republic with your lives.”
Only a handful of soldiers – including Nio though with a daunted face – who answered the disgusting command by saying, “Siap! Understood!”
“Nio, and all. I'm sorry,” said the commander of Squad 1 with a small smile, and cocked his old weapon.
The hologram display on the helmets of each TNI and TRIP combined soldier showed the location and speed of the enemy moving towards them, causing the entire army to tremble and tremble.
[Wire status: ready. Bullet count: 100 + fighting knife. Number of team mates: 13. Enemy movement: active]
The hologram look on Nio's helmet reappeared, and he gulped with a restless face.
“Commander Squad 1 to whole unit. The command has given orders. For the next time, I will take command of the battle.”
“What?!”
The young man who became Nio's superior realized that one of his subordinates would say that with a shocked face mixed with fear.
Then, the commander of Squad 5 replied to the statement of commander Nio, “Understood, commander of Squad 1. Strategy is the same as before, right? Make cowards in government and military aware of their orders!”
The voice throughout the entire radio communication channel of the entire soldier was filled with half-hearted words of courage, and pitiful laughter.
“Dogs like ‘they’ turned out to never change. ‘They’ just ordered us dead, meanwhile there are many people who need us. Their ears and eyes only hear and see money and power are useless, but they will also die if there is none of us right? All units, make the distended dogs conscious, and run to death with confidence. Let heaven welcome us with perfect angels!”
The words of the commander of the 2nd Company echoed throughout the soldier's communication radio, making Nio increasingly weaker his hand grip on his gun grip. Nio's efforts to gather courage only became futile as the real road of death lay wide in front of him.
“Commando reports. The bomber will arrive in 2 hours. The enemy approached the defensive line in a hundred and twenty seconds. Fight to penetrate the main enemy forces, until the bombers arrive!”
“Backed! that's too long!”
“Really! and even if the bombers managed to destroy the enemy, all the soldiers here might already be corpses!”
[Prepare to fight!]
The transparent hologram on the glass of Nio's helmet changed to a red color, indicating that bloodshed was imminent.
“Let's do this, Nio!”
His superior once again tried to calm him down, even though Nio himself was unable to cope with his trembling hand, which was creeping up to his two legs.
As soon as the enemy dragons and Wyverns spouted out their hot flames, the troops instantly turned chaotic and ran around without direction.
As the heavy cavalry horses smashed into the soldiers who had run out of morale, they easily crushed the determination of the amateur soldiers. The huge swords of heavy infantry easily cut off the heads and split the bodies of the TNI warriors, they cheered with this victory that they were about to achieve.
The cheers of the enemy troops and the sound of metal clashing together echoed on the battlefield, making the fighting spirit of the soldiers drop dramatically to the bottom of despair.
“Commander of 3 Squad to all members! Don't try to escape, we will slaughter the enemy in this war!”
“Commander Squad 2 autumn! Squad Commander 1 will take command!”
“Commando to Squad Commander 1! Permission to take command granted!”
“Enemy slaughtered Platoon 3! Sorry, this is the end for right-wing”
“Platoon Commander 1 to Platoon 3! Just a minute more! Our 1st squad is fighting near you!”
“Accepted. Good luck”
[Number of friends: 180]
[Number of friends: 150]
[Number of friends: 137]
[Number of friends: 91]
[Number of friends: 84]
[Number of friends:79]
[Number of friends: 53]
As the display appeared on the glass hologram of Nio's helmet, the sound of a heavy breath could be heard from the 17-year-old. The sea breeze from Nampu Beach bothered Nio to enjoy his anxiety in this fight.
“Commander Squad 1 to command! The strength of the enemy cavalry had been reduced to a great extent. However, the enemy flying lizards are the source of the real problem!”
Nio leaned against the wall of the heavily damaged civilian house, and reached into the bag of grenades to detonate a group of enemies that were approaching towards his comrades. Nio's restless heart made him unable to press the trigger of the grenade properly, and made him press the trigger button for detonation within 5 seconds.
Without a second thought, Nio fearfully threw his grenade at the enemy line that surrounded his friends. And in a split second, a high-powered grenade blew away eight enemy soldiers, and save the other members of Team 1 despite getting minor injuries due to fragments of grenade shells that shot in all directions in high speed when it exploded.
“Nio! How many times are you going to get your friends almost killed for your lack of ability to suppress fear?!”
“Ma-forgive me..”
Nio's reply in a soft voice was extremely disliked by his commander, as it seemed like he had absolutely no fighting spirit. The comrades he saved looked at him with sharp gazes, and did not like the way Nio launched an attack all of a sudden. Nio judged they had established themselves as one of the people they hated the most.
Before the hateful gazes of Nio's friends, he turned his gaze towards the beach.
Not only do dozens of enemy warships move to Nampu Beach. Small to large ships totaling hundreds, there was no time to count one by one. On the shore, hundreds of enemy soldiers were killed, and the bodies of friends without lives lay and created a new river of blood that flowed into the sea.
Wyverns perched on enemy aircraft carriers began to take off, shouting at each other to provide a deterrent effect to the TNI forces. Cannons and long-range battle magic witches on board were pointed at troops on land not far from the shore.
There was no hope left on the battlefield, except for the despair that spread throughout the rest of the TNI soldiers. Throughout the eye of the beholder, all he saw besides the corpses was a shout in the hearts of the surviving soldiers. The silence and cheers of the enemy forces' victory unsettled Nio.
In this dying land, all who could fight would be deployed, in return for material rewards if they managed to survive, or a glorious, slow, painful death.
Soldiers are alive, but lifeless. Soldiers die, but they don't lose their lives.
The silhouette seen at sea is not a TNI Navy warship or allied country aid warship that is impossible. Hundreds of cannons on enemy warships have been loaded, the enemy flying lizards are getting closer, and ready to attack and fire when orders are given.
Having nothing to hope for, the rest of the TNI soldiers near Nampu Beach dispose of their respective weapons, and put up their bodies to become corpses in the hands of the enemy. However, friends who would soon die dragging their dying bodies to enliven the surviving comrades to retrieve their weapons, and continue the struggle even if it ends in vain.
Nio with a confident face mixed in fear of standing up, then sighed one long breath.
As he did so, dozens of fighter jets and bombers of TNI Air Force fighters flew in the sky, releasing all weapons and ammunition carried, slaughtering enemy forces left on land, air, and air, and sea.
**
A country that dreams of becoming a major power in the world can now tell a story of peace born from the painful and courageous bloody struggle of their mighty warriors. Peace was won over the spilled blood and the corpses of the warriors who slaughtered the barbarian enemies.
The memories of the past are quite disturbing if remembered again, making Nio wake up from his 3-day long sleep. Although painful enough, the madness of the war will occur until the time that has not been set as long as the enemy remains.
War will not be completely wiped out from the world.
