03 July

Dajin Island, Guangzhou Military Region, China

Special Forces Unit—“South Blade”

The commando finished his morning swim with a ride through the surf. He blinked the water from his eyes and spotted General Yongsheng standing at the foamy reach of the waves. The General was shaking his shiny black boots, trying in vain, no doubt, to preserve them from the dirty sand on the remote island a stone’s throw from mainland China. The breeze from the spinning helicopter thirty meters behind barely ruffled his slicked black hair. The General was not especially famous for his patience, so the commando moved as quickly as he could through the retreating waters and soft sand, breathing deeply from his intense workout. He came to a stop with a deep bow.

“How are you Biédòngduì?” General Yongsheng asked solicitously.

“I am well, Sir,” the commando replied, still bent over to show his respect. He dripped sea water in a pool uncomfortably close to the General’s boots.

“At ease.” The commando straightened, meeting the General’s eyes. “I have another very important task for you. The centerpiece of our little shadow theater. This one is far too sensitive to discuss over even the most secure cellular phones.” The commando nodded once. “You must be ready to depart in one week. It is a long journey, though not so distant. It is not so complicated as it may seem at first. But let us discuss the details here, where my helicopter makes just the correct amount of noise.”
