Ponte Vedra

----------------------------------
Port-Allanea, Allanea
----------------------------------
The merchant marine force was unloading, one quarter of the entire logistics fleet was stationed outside of the port waiting to unload. Ship after ship, three army corps were being entirely unloaded, then loaded onto trains and being prepared for shipment to the southwestern quarter of the nation. The three army corps, made up of around twenty-two divisions each, totaling around six hundred thousand troops, were being placed in Allanea as a requirement for the rapid-defense force under the command of Maj. General Ricardo Martinez.
He and his staff were flying in their private jet provided for by the Air Force to oversee the unloading operation. They were flying just underneath the three air corpses that were being transferred to several Allanea military and civilian bases to be distributed across the country. The sight was extraordinary. The fleet had arrived: eighteen assault carriers and twenty-four battleships made up the main capital ship presence in the theater. Why were they here?
The public reason for the massive Ponte Vedra presence in Allanea was the rapid defence force that they were obligated to commit to. But why would they need this large of force?, the public asked. It wasn’t a time of war, there wasn’t a danger. No, the public reason was an anti-terrorism operation that was taking place in Allanea and Axackal. Extremists openly challenged the government using not words, but C-4 explosives. It was a problem that needed to be dealt with. And while Allanea was involved with stabilizing Axackal after the liberation movement, Ponte Vedra moved in to take out the wrong doers.
Martinez stared out the window of the private jet, “Martin, that ship has been there for some time now, what are they doing?”
“It is refueling, sir. That one had some fuel cell container problems on the trip out here and lost a good majority of its tank. It’ll only be there for a bit more, They are making room at those docks over,” he pointed, “there, and they’ll be offloading there. We are only twenty minutes behind schedule, sir, and the skies are clear for some more time. Good weather is expected for the rest of the week. The rest of our heavier assets, the tanks, are being offloaded at a bigger dock closer to the railway. They’ll be getting off last though, the engineers will be getting off before them in order to get to the sector first.”
“Good.” He went back to reading his briefing on the troops, current status, and set up for the actual threat. The actual threat was the Ilek-Vaad fleet poised off of the Southwest coast of Allanea. That sector was red hot, and poorly defended. It was Martinez’s job to fix that. He’d use his infantry, air force, armor, artillery, and everything else to establish an extensive defense line for the Allanean public. He’d use the region, the climate, the ground, the trees, everything he could. As Ponte Vedra’s Theater Commander, he was allowed information as to why they were there. Information came through that UnAPs was planning an offensive that information came from an anonymous member of the alliance who gave information on all sorts of military operations and details of member nations. Because of this, Ponte Vedra was able to train their soldiers against common UnAPs tactics and possible methods of invasion. Engineers would be assembling surface to air missile stations across the coast in order to defend against the bombers and attack fighters that they would be sending in first. Time was of the essence.
The third, fourth, and fifth army corps would be fully unloaded in two weeks and would trickle into the front and begin pre-determined defenses such as artillery, tank holes, foxholes, pill boxes, Anti-Air defenses, cover, bridges, and assorted other countermeasures needed against a possible sea invasion. Three lines, the first was the beachhead that would be spotted with artillery and pillboxes, cement walls, barbed wire on steep inclines tanks cannot go up, mines scattering the sand, magnetic mines floating in scattered positions on all possible routes of invasion, “booby traps” and iron crosses; the second was composed of an artillery line, counter artillery line, forward helicopter positions, anti-air, some armor, and assorted minefields; the third was the main front with heavy artillery, anti-air, armor, infantry, and assorted other goodies. They were going to be ready. The only hope was that none of this would be necessary.
There was one last thing he had prepared. Cement-hulled submarines. They were being built over in the Allanea southwest coast and shipped out to sit underwater, virtually undetectable, and wait for the UnAPs members to invade. Their six torpedoes for two tubes, two mines, and a hydrogen fuel cell engine made it a competent defensive strategy against virtually anything that advanced. The navy was building tons of them too. Already a squadron of 20 of these short, yet powerful were being put to sea in defensive lines against the Ilek-Vaad threatening presence.
Martinez could only pray that none of this was necessary and that all these men and women could go back home unharmed, and that none of them would be in caskets.
