The atmosphere outside the underground city was extremely bright, with the sky clean. Several fighter jets and helicopter gunships every few hours did indeed pass above the sky of Karanganyar City.

It does not disturb people who are doing activities as usual.

This kind of atmosphere is very soothing if there is no war that is not until when it flares up. Until now, other world forces are still carrying out attacks against countries in this world. No exception in Indonesia.

The militaries of the countries of the world are always developing strength in order to be able to fight otherworldly forces that are also getting stronger.

Some countries also agreed to form a military force by giving birth to alliances or alliances.

However, a country as powerful as the United States would prefer to fight against otherworldly forces alone. There was already an offer for the country's military to join one of the alliances already formed. But they refused on the grounds that they still had enough power to repel the enemy forces.

The result is clear, half the territory of the United States can be controlled by other world forces. But the US accuses some countries of 'hugging' other world forces to destroy this country. Of course, no country believes the allegations the US government has made. The whole world today already knows that the US is just trying to do things to make the country look very strong.

The US even formed an organization that serves to make a list of countries with the strongest military power, of course the US is in first place. Unfortunately, the list made by the US became a reference that most people believe today.

But when viewed from various aspects to make the military of a country listed as the strongest, the US is under North Korea, even Indonesia.

At this time, Indonesia was recognized as the strongest military country in Asia under Japan, China and India.

But at the time of the war, no alliance was willing to help Indonesia.

The middle eastern countries agreed to form a very strong alliance, it made the otherworldly forces think twice about attacking the region. There is one country that chooses to behave the same as the United States, Israel.

But the Israeli military can really defend its country. But they had very difficult to face an enemy that was like coming out endlessly.

The other alliance formed was the Asean Guild. The only country that does not join this association is Indonesia. More precisely no country is willing to help Indonesia, because it is one of the locations of the emergence of the Gate.

Although not the area where the Gate appeared, but the Asean alliance had been very difficult to stem the enemy's attack. Moreover, they are also very difficult to develop strength, both in the field of personnel and weaponry.

The war made all economic-related activities become disrupted, even declining drastically to make some Asean country currencies like there is no price.

Lucky for Indonesia which can still maintain the country's economy.

Before the war, Indonesia had to develop and create a new defense system. In addition to self-development, Indonesia also cooperates with countries that have a strong military, such as Russia.

That's why this country has lost only a small amount of territory due to the invasion of other world forces.

**

The gate was still standing, and there was no sign of any enemy coming out of it. Even so, as many as 2,000 soldiers from the Army and the Navy were alerted around the Gate with complete weaponry.

Fregat-class battleships and coastal defense-class ships were alerted around the Gate. Some medium tanks and rocket launchers were installed on the coast around the Gate.

The gate looks very strong, as it is evidenced in various ways.

The TNI has launched dozens of rockets at the object and other destructive weapons. The result of course was obvious, such a Gate could not be broken.

But the TNI did not dare to use weapons with very large explosive power, citing fear of damaging the environment and saving costs.

Eventually the TNI stopped doing anything related to damaging the Gate. The ammunition they threw away was already too much to do the thing that ended up in vain.

World news also contains news about the Gate that moves in Indonesia. The gate that appears in several places in the world does not show such a phenomenon in Indonesia. That's the strangeness that is often called 'fantasy'.

The gates that appeared in several places in the world were silent and continued to bring out enemy troops with large numbers of weapons. But at the Gate in Indonesia began to stop removing enemy troops, it made the TNI can focus on cleaning up the remaining enemy troops.

And the cleaning operation will be carried out simultaneously two days from now. This was a massive operation carried out by the TNI in order to repel enemy forces and find a way to destroy the Gate.

But the scientists researching the Gate had an opinion of the plan to destroy the Gate. They argue that the Gate could have appeared elsewhere in Indonesia.

It's good to try to see what's behind the gate. Some people argue, if behind the Gate there is a world that has the same life as the earth but with the existence of a thing called 'fantasy'.

This is corroborated by enemy forces carrying animals that only exist in fantasy novels, namely dragons or such animals.

All of this may be true, but who knows...?

All the people living in the underground city did their jobs.

On this day, the command headquarters of the 406 Company held a meeting on the operation to be carried out in two days.

One by one the soldiers came out of his dormitory and walked quickly towards the meeting place.

Nio who is also seen walking quickly while carrying a collection of papers in the tens. The paper contains a map of the terrain of Mojogedang district and some additional notes written by Nio. All of that was a collection of writings that were critical to the course of the upcoming operation, and Nio was very responsible for the task.

Nio lowered his steps as he looked Herlina standing in front of the meeting room. Herlina's face showed a serious expression, and it seemed to be unable to speak with that had nothing to do with this meeting.

Nio still tried to calm down to have a conversation at the meeting later.

"Captain Herlina, why are you still here?" surya asked who made Nio stop his steps temporarily.

"Waiting for Nio," Herlina replied in a flat tone.

While Surya was seen looking at Nio with an annoyed expression, then he went back into the meeting room while clucking his tongue.

Nio did not understand why Surya looked like that. But it is not something he thinks should be taken care of, there is a very important task waiting for him.

"Are you ready?" asked Herlina with a serious look at Nio.

"Of course, I've arranged everything," Nio replied confidently as well.

As he stepped into the meeting room, Nio felt many pairs of eyes staring at him and made him a little nervous to start the meeting.

**

Herlina has finished opening the meeting, and other agenda meetings have also been implemented.

Now is the main event that is the most important thing of this meeting, namely the presentation of Nio about the condition of the enemy and the geographical situation of the district of Mojogedang.

Nio stood in front of the pulpit and placed the pile of paper he was carrying there. He also took out a flash drive from his uniform pocket and put it into his laptop.

Members of the Team who had been in the Topography Unit Team with Nio felt confident that the strategy compiled by Nio would be impressive.

After saying his greetings and preface, Nio finally started the action.

"This is the village area of Pereng and Munggur, the distance is not up to 5 km from the center of Mojogedang sub-district. Both villages are directly adjacent to the city of Sragen. From the information I got, the city has about 3 volunteer squads that can be our help...,"

Nio continued his explanation of the selection of the two villages for the decline of troops and the establishment of camps.

In addition to the reasons Nio had mentioned earlier, there were several other explanations.

Between the two villages there are rubber plantations suitable to inhibit the movement of enemies who often fight directly.

Nio planned to herd the enemy into the rubber forest and do battle there.

Regarding Nio's plan on this one, the entire soldier sounded very excited and made Nio even more confident to continue the presentation.

Nio then opened another file containing a map portrait of one of the villages in Mojogedang sub-district which was again taken from a drone with a camera.

"The main enemy forces are in the village of Mojoroto, we estimate that there are 2,000 of them. Yet we do battle with them and reduce 600 enemy soldiers."

Sima and the members of the Topographic Unit Squad dispatched to battle with the enemy troops looked extremely confident and proud when their achievements were mentioned by Nio.

"Let me be clear, those 600 are still approximate numbers. It could have been some enemy soldiers fleeing and heading for their main encampment in Mojoroto village."

Some soldiers were heard muttering something about Nio's words, but Herlina immediately ordered them to calm down.

Nio took a breath to stay calm, then continued his conversation.

"A day before the operation, 2 Squad from Company 406 and 2 Squad from Company 32 will be dispatched first to the villages of Pereng and Munggur to set up camp and make defense, he said, I call this team 1. I recommend taking the route through the city of Surakarta which is still safe. After that, contact the volunteer forces in Sragen city to help, of course if they want. Then the remaining 4 squads that I call team 2, will be deployed directly in the village of Mojoroto to herd the enemy to where team 1 is and then attack them simultaneously."

All the soldiers responded to Nio's words by nodding and feeling confident that the strategy Nio had created would be very effective.

Surya looks to raise his right hand. He had a question he was asking Nio.

Nio then allowed Surya to say his question.

"Why don't we just attack the enemy simultaneously, instead of dividing the army into two teams?" surya asked in a tone like doubting Nio.

"For the battle to be effective, I am sure that Captain Surya knows that the armor of the enemy forces is very strong and difficult to penetrate with ordinary assault rifles that we have. One more thing, when team 2 do a slope there must be a battle that will certainly reduce the number of enemy soldiers. Then when we get to team 1, we'll attack the remaining enemy troops."

Surya then folded his hands in front of his chest while nodding without understanding and satisfied as his question had been answered.

After that some of the soldiers started asking Nio questions.

"Does the enemy army have air power?" ask one of the soldiers after welcome Nio to ask

"When conducting reconnaissance, it is not seen that the enemy has air power. But the troops, led by Sergeant Sima, said they were faced with 6 dragons and it was likely not only the enemy's air power. So, it's good to be prepared to face if the enemy forces really have dragon power" Nio replied as he double-checked the records.

The soldier whose question Nio had answered looked amazed and satisfied with Nio's answer.

A few female warriors were seen staring at Nio with admiring gazes, or something like that.

Herlina coded a hand to temporarily stop this activity, she was seen holding a radio communication device that someone was communicating with.

Herlina was seen grinning while having a conversation with someone.

"For matters of weaponry, we don't have to worry anymore.." said Herlina with a small smile.

The soldiers guarding the entrance gate of the underground city opened it so that a truck could enter the underground city.

The truck then stopped at a place often used by soldiers to practice martial arts.

All the soldiers who had originally attended the meeting, got out of the meeting place and swarmed the trucks that seemed to be special for transporting weaponry.

Close the truck box opens automatically and shows some boxes sealed with a password padlock.

Only a few people know the password of the padlock that secures the boxes.

Even Surya himself did not know about this.

Herlina then ordered some soldiers to take out boxes of various sizes.

From the expression when lifting the box, the soldiers looked very objected even though one box was lifted by 4 people.

Herlina then received some sheets of paper from the attendant who delivered these boxes and signed a few others.

After the entire box was taken down, Herlina then entered the password from the padlock and opened the box.

The contents stored in the box were visible and amazed the entire soldier.

"This is our new weapon, a type 20 assault rifle with new ammunition. With this rifle, the enemy's annoying armor can be penetrated easily with the bullets released by this rifle," Herlina said while carrying a rifle that had only arrived a few moments ago.

All TNI units received a new assault rifle called SS 20. It replaced the previous generation rifle, the SS 19.

"In that way, we can run the strategy made by Nio very effectively," continued Herlina who aims to convince Nio.

In addition to the new assault rifle, the sniper also gets a new sniper rifle that is much stronger than before.

Tania and the other snipers were seen sparkling in her eyes while holding their new sniper rifles.

In addition to assault rifles and sniper rifles, handguns and submachine guns are among the new weapons being delivered.
