That way lies the LubyankaGood-bye, Comrade Monseigneur,” said the attorney for the Ministry of Legal Procedures, scraping his chair in place and starting for the door One by one, as they had arrived, the assembled group followed the lawyer, each looking back at the strange man who had so exotically, so briefly, interrupted their tedious lives, all knowing instinctively that in his path were disgrace and execution Yet none was prepared for what followedThe killer in priest’s clothing suddenly snapped; visceral bolts of lightning electrified his madnessHis dark eyes burned with a raging fire that could be extinguished only by soul-satisfying violence—relentless, brutal, savage vengeance for all the wrongs done to his pure purpose to kill the unbelievers! The Jackal swept away the dossiers from the table and lurched down to the pile of newspapers; he grabbed the deadly automatic weapon from beneath the scattered pages and roared, “Stop! All of you!” None did, and the outer regions of psychopathic energy became the order of the momentThe killer squeezed the trigger repeatedly and men and women diedAmid screams from the shattered bodies nearest the door, the assassin raced outside, leaping over the corpses, his assault rifle on automatic fire, cutting down the figures in the street, screaming curses, condemning the unbelievers to a hell only he could imagine “Traitors! Filth! Garbage!” screamed the crazed Jackal as he leaped over the dead bodies, racing to the car he had commandeered from the Komitet and its inadequate surveillance unitThe night had ended; the morning had begun The Metropole’s telephone did not ring, it eruptedStartled, Alex Conklin snapped open his eyes, instantly shaking the sleep from his head as he clawed for the strident instrument on the Robert Ludlum ??

Oh!

@@@@@The body of the island, about a hundred and @@@@@The body of the island, about a hundred and fifty miles long and a third as wide, was formed generally in a streamline with a high spine of mountains along its axisOn a line almost perpendicular to the main body of Anopopei, the mouthpiece, a peninsula, jutted out for twenty miles General Cummings's task force had landed on the tip of this peninsula, and in the first few days of the campaign had advanced almost five milesThe initial wave of assault troops had splashed out of their boats, run up the beach, and entrenched themselves at the edge of the jungleSubsequent waves passed their position and filed through the brush along trails the Japanese had cut previouslyThere was little resistance the first day or two, for the majority of Japanese had been withdrawn from the beach when the Navy shelling beganThe early advances were only briefly delayed by a minor ambush, or a temporary defense position set up along a ravine or across a trailThe troops pawed forward gingerly a few hundred yards at a time, sending out many patrols to examine the ground ahead before each company moved upThere was no front line for several days at leastLittle groups of men filtered through the jungle, fought minor skirmishes with still smaller groups, and then moved on againCumulatively there was a motion forward, but each individual unit moved in no particular direction at any given timeThey were like a nest of ants wrestling and tugging at a handful of bread crumbs in a field of grass On the third day the men captured a Japanese airfieldIt was a minor affair, a quarter-mile strip of cleared jungle with a small hangar recessed in the brush and a few buildings already destroyed by the Japanese, but the Pacific communiques included it, and radio announcers mentioned the victory toward the end of their news broadcastsThe airfield had been taken by two platoons who circled the jungle about it, routed the sole machine-gun squad still defending the clearing, and radioed back to Battalion HeadquartersThe nightly defense positions of the General's troops had some coherence for the first timeThe General established a front line a few hundred yards beyond the airstrip, and listened that evening to the Japanese artillery bombarding the fieldBy midmorning the next day his troops had moved forward another half mile up the peninsula, and the front had broken again into sluggish separate globules of mercury It seemed impossible to maintain any sort of orderTwo companies might start in the morning with perfect liaison between their flanks, and by nightfall would be bivouacking a mile apartThe jungle offered far more resistance than the Japanese, and the troops tried to avoid it wherever they could, threading their way along creekbanks, forging trails through the comparatively uncluttered wilderness of natural coconut groves, and moving with pleasure through the occasional clearings of kunai grassThe Japanese in response would shell the clearings at unpredictable hours, so that the troops avoided them finally, and blundered through the uncertain avenues which thinner patches of jungle might provide In the first week of the campaign the jungle was easily the General's worst opponentThe division task force had been warned that the forests of Anopopei were formidable, but being told this did not make it easierThrough the densest portions, a man would lose an hour in moving a few hundred fe | | Monday, December 6th, 2010 | | 9:32 am |
