Quote:[Kasaema, Presidents Office, January 1st, 5610, 2:AM]
Sládek closely read the report laid before him, dragging a puff from another silver tipped cigarette, Xsampa had sent priority transmission via telegram to the presidents office. "Respectfully considering the needs of the people of Xsampa and the direction of our head of state, we have decided to cut ties with the Legionary state of Kundrati and evaluate foreign opportunities elsewhere, we acknowledge your aid in the red bass conflict and eternally thank you for your help in the conflict. We wish Kundrati only the best, any further inquiries may be directed to the officer of the presidents office, sincerely yours."
Sládek gritted his teeth and snubbed out his cigarette. "So that's how it is, we do our due diligence and you smite us for your loyalty!" He slammed the papers on the table. He picked up the red telephone, ringing the head of the armed forces Radim Kolář.", the phone rang for 45 seconds, then answered, "This is Kolář speaking."
"Kolář, I order you to immediately deploy all submersible forces to lay outside Xsampese waters, have them in total combat preparation and prepare for full strike capabilities."
Kolář next to his bed rubbing his eyes thought to himself, hadn't Xsampa just been their allies? He didn't dare offer any protest, "Of course comrade, I will report to command and see it done within the hour." The phone hung up. Kolář raised himself from bed and told his wife everything was fine, that he had to report in to work early.
Rubinov Gobdan put down his prohibited nude magazine and picked up the phone that rang, "What is it now?" he spat out, wanting to return to his pictures. "Naval adjutant Gobdan, this is Commissar Liknat.", The hairs on his neck stood up as he immediately changed his tone, "O-of course, comrade commissar, I a-apologize for the delay, I was reviewing reports.", "As naturally you should, you are to order all submarine units to immediate combat duties and have them deployed at provided coordinates, delays will be noted, do not fail the state in your duty." Gobdan gulped replying meekly, "A-as you command comrade commissar, glory to Sládek!" He hung up the phone abruptly scrambling for the controls alerting all watch officers to report at once. Within half an hour hundreds of men were scrambling to duty half awake, saluting at attention to the stern browed commissars who evaluating the situation began barking orders at the captains of multiple vessels, submarine engines roared to life as the naval dockyard of Pilgon awoke from their slumber.
