The Legend
All events described are fictional, any coincidence with the actual facts, past or present, is purely incidental.
The year is 2011. The length of the global economic crisis has left the world exhausted. The prices of oil and gas are down to the level of the year 1917. UNESCO has declared the year of global depression. To everyone's surprise, China makes a recovery, restarts its economy at outrageous rates, conquers te world markets with its cheap production. The global analysts cannot explain this phenomenon, suspicions are raised that the Cinese have discovered a yet unknown source of exceptionally cheap energy. The USA politicians begon observing a threat to the global security in this strengthening of China. Even though the Chinese army is not very well-trained or provided, it has multiple management problems, it still becomes one of the most numerous in the world. With the last of its financial reserves, the USA start a secret program, code-named "The Eye of Horus" - a latest technology satelite network is launched into the Earth orbit to spy on the Cinese and their accomplices. The information from the satelite allows to make early estimations of the processes in China, and the American leaders expect to prevent any signs of aggresional outbreaks, which reduces some of the political tension. The winter is over, the spring brings a certain optimism...
On the morning of the 24th of April, 2011, the world is shaken by an incredible news – China has used a DF-21 class ballistic missile to destroy one of „The Eye of Horus“ program satelites. Just before explosion a capsule with the satelite's info and the control codes of other satelites of the system was dispatched and is falling on the border between China and Russia...
The President of the United States orders to ensure that the satelite's info and technology would not go to the Chinese at any cost...
The Russian troops Nr. PZ479-KB774 is dislocated far from the large cities, in an almost uninhabited territory about 3 km from the Russian-Chinese border. A while ago its main task was to guard the airport at the border and keep the control of the national border, but after the provision of the army became increasingly poor, the contingent has decreased several times, and the leaders have become despondent, without proper leadership, the state border is left pretty much unguarded. The talk of the region is that the Chinese spies have been observed several times in the Russian territory, but the leaders of the troops deny that categorically. There have been no major conflicts with China ever since WWII, and China declares its friendship to Russia, and the Russian leaders see no need to change that. The airport is hardly ever used and mostly unguarded, only sometimes checked upon by a Russian patrol. On the eve there have been some problems with the connection to the army leadership in Moscow. The leaders of the troops are still investigating whether that was slobbishness of the technicians or a diversion.
The global community is following the events, but even the most professional forecasters dare not guess what will happen...
