Chapter 850 Intelligence Exchange Operation Plan
Liu Chengxu shook his head gently: "Everyone, please listen to me." He raised his voice so that everyone present could hear his analysis clearly. "Our reconnaissance team not only conducted a detailed search along the coastline, but also conducted a north-south reconnaissance range of more than 30 kilometers. This distance is enough to cover any ambush points that the enemy may have set up. However, they did not find any traces of the enemy. This is by no means accidental, but direct evidence of the enemy's strategic adjustment."
He walked to the tactical map, and gently traced his finger across the coastline, pointing to the area deep inland marked by the reconnaissance formation as an enemy gathering area. "From the intelligence sent back by the reconnaissance formation, the density of personnel in that area, the number of fortifications, and the rigor of the deployment are far beyond the standards required for bait. This is clearly a carefully constructed defense line, and it is a real preparation made by the enemy to deal with our possible offensive."
At this point, Liu Chengxu's eyes became more profound. "If the enemy really wanted to lure us deep into the sea, they would definitely lay an imperceptible pocket in the offshore area, waiting for us to fall into their trap. But the fact is that our reconnaissance formation did not find any abnormal military activities in this sea area, no hidden artillery positions, and no sudden increase in radar signals. All this shows that the enemy has completely abandoned the defense of the offshore area and turned its focus to the inland area."
He paused, as if giving everyone present time to think. "I believe that our ally General Chen Tong is also facing the same situation. Their reconnaissance operations on the other side will also reveal the enemy's strategic intention to abandon the coastal areas and stick to the inland."
As soon as he finished speaking, the signalman hurried into the command room, holding a telegram tightly in his hand. "General, there's a call from General Chen Tong!"
Liu Chengxu quickly took the telegram, glanced at the content, and smiled knowingly. "It seems that our judgment is consistent." He turned and announced to everyone, "Chief of Staff Chen's telegram mentioned that their reconnaissance troops also discovered the main force of the enemy deep inland, which is completely consistent with our intelligence. This further confirms that the enemy is indeed deliberately abandoning the coastal area and choosing the place of the decisive battle inland."
His words were full of confidence, as if he had seen the dawn of victory. "Okay, everyone, now we have grasped the enemy's strategic intentions. The next task is to develop an effective combat plan to break their defenses and win this battle!"
Liu Chengxu's eyes were sharp as a torch. He quickly turned around and issued an order to the communicator beside him: "Immediately call Chief of Staff Chen back with the following content: Our reconnaissance results are consistent with yours. Preliminary analysis confirms that the enemy has indeed abandoned the offshore area and its strategic focus has obviously shifted to the deep inland area far away from the sea. Such trends are both challenges and opportunities for our army. I hope Chief of Staff Chen can share your valuable insights on the current situation, especially on how to cooperate in combat and disintegrate the enemy's inland defense line as quickly as possible. Be sure to ensure that the telegram is sent encrypted, safety first."
Upon hearing this, the communicator immediately buried his head in front of the communication equipment, tapping the keyboard quickly, accurately converting Liu Chengxu's instructions into encrypted telegrams, ready to send to Chen Tong's command center.
The room was filled with a tense yet orderly working atmosphere, and everyone knew that every next step would have a profound impact on the direction of the battle.
On the bridge of the Hanshan flagship, Chen Tong held the telegram in his hand. After quickly reading Liu Chengxu's reply, a knowing smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He then gave instructions to the communicator beside him.
"Communicator, call back Commander Liu." Chen Tong's voice was steady and powerful. "The content is as follows: Commander Liu, your analysis coincides with mine. It seems that the enemy has indeed abandoned the coastal area and retreated inland. We don't need to linger here any longer. We should act immediately, organize a landing operation, quickly gain a foothold in the Waka area, and build our base camp. But be careful, the enemy is cunning, and it is very likely to launch a surprise attack when we officially land. We must be cautious and ensure safety."
The communicator quickly wrote down Chen Tong's instructions and began to busily operate the communication equipment, converting this important tactical decision into radio waves, which crossed the ocean and were transmitted to Liu Chengxu in the distance.
At the same time, Chen Tong stood on the bridge, staring at the sea ahead that was about to become a battlefield, with complex emotions surging in his heart.
Every next step will be full of unknowns and dangers, but what he knows more clearly is that the balance of victory is tilting towards them.
Soon, Liu Chengxu's reply came again. Chen Tong couldn't wait to take the telegram and read it carefully.
In the telegram, Liu Chengxu not only expressed his agreement with Chen Tong's tactical concept, but also proposed a more specific combat plan: "Chief of Staff Chen, I agree with you. After landing, we will quickly advance to the northeast, using the terrain advantage to distract the enemy's attention. Our goal is to complete the meeting outside Kii City, form a joint force, and deal a fatal blow to the enemy."
After Chen Tong finished reading, a trace of approval flashed in his eyes. Liu Chengxu was not only an outstanding commander, but also a trustworthy comrade-in-arms.
Although the two were in different places, they were able to have such a tacit understanding in tactics, which undoubtedly increased the chances of winning the next battle.
"Okay! Let's follow Commander Liu's plan," Chen Tong said to the communicator. "Immediately convey our decision to all combat units and have them prepare for landing. At the same time, strengthen intelligence gathering, pay close attention to the enemy's movements, and ensure that our actions are foolproof."
As the order was given, the Hanshan flagship suddenly became busy and the soldiers made intensive preparations.
Liu Chengxu stood in front of the flagship's combat command desk, his eyes fixed on the sea chart and the real-time battlefield situation map. His voice spread throughout the fleet through the communication system: "Attention all troop transports, enter the first-level combat readiness state immediately! Check all equipment, ensure that personnel are in place and that supplies are sufficient. Engineering department, immediately start the pontoon bridge construction plan, and make sure it is completed within the scheduled time. At the same time, prepare to release a large number of assault boats for landing."
As the order was issued, the sea became busy. Troop transport ships slowly adjusted their course and moved closer to the designated landing area.
Engineers acted quickly, using specially made pontoon components to build stable channels in the waves. These will connect the troop transports to the coastline and become the lifeline for the landing troops.
At the same time, Liu Chengxu continued to issue orders: "The assault boat troops are ready. Once the pontoon bridge is built, immediately release the assault boats and charge to the shore as quickly as possible to seize the landing point. Pay attention to maintaining formation, covering each other, and ensuring safety during the landing process."
