News from Novikov [ATTN: IADF]

Inside a darkened room, two figures sit impatiently in the shadows. With a click a television blinks to life, playing a taped portion of last night’s news broadcast. The two men look disturbed as they watch.

-News Clip-

“The Novikovian Government, after warning of possible attacks by an unknown source [Macabees] have begun a full mobilization of NIRC Troops stationed in Czechzenia, Novikov, and abroad. This mobilization coming just weeks after the offer made to deploy Novikovian and Czech forces to the Tree Hugging Lesbians region seems to point to possible events unfolding there. That, however, has been left to speculation. The Government is really keeping it’s mouth closed on this one. Any comments, Joseph?”

“Yes Eukatrina. As you know, the larges leak of information came from the Czech Senate house, which released a document outlining their vote on a proposal to send a Czech regiment overseas. From that document, the NIN News Agency has uncovered a list of units preparing for, and I quote, ‘overseas deployment, timeframe unknown.’ The list includes Eight Novikovian Infantry Divisions, Four Armored, and almost half on Novikov’s navy, as well as a regiment of Czechs and a large Czech fleet presence, in all estimated at over one-hundred-twenty thousand men.

Now anyone who knows anything can tell you that that kind of a deployment doesn’t happen every day. We’re obviously preparing for something big, but, as of now, Novikovian and Czech officials haven’t released any more details.”

“Do you think it could have anything to do with the Malgerian incident?”

“Well Kati, I wouldn’t be surprised, but I’d also prefer not to speculate. We’ll know soon enough. They can’t keep a secret for too long.”

“No, not from us Joseph.”

“Alright, and that’s it in the National news today, now, moving onto sports where the Novikov…”

-End Broadcast-

“Do you think they know what’s going on?” Yevgeny asked quietly.

“No sir. They’re just as blind as the rest of them. If they’re probing the Malgerian War… No, they can’t know.”

“If those damn fools in Czechzenia would learn to censor their documents we wouldn’t even have this problem.”

“No sir. But you must understand this isn’t a setback.”

“I know, and even if it is, it had best not cause any problems. Do you understand me Colonel?”

“Yes, sir. I’ll take care of it…”

The information contained was quickly distributed and, within sixteen orders of clearing Operacija Zelen - Povećan, transport aircraft were airborn, carrying the first of thousands to a nation which, by all reports, would need all the help it could get.

The fleet took longer to assemble, but projections showed that, in two days, it would also be ready to sail, loaded with half the combat troops Novikov would deploy. They were lucky, the Queendom was only three days away, letting them, theoretically, deploy their full strength in under a month. According to intelligence, they would be cutting it awfully close.
