Chapter 698 Operation Plan Officially Lands in Nagasaki
In the battle command room of the giant flagship Leader, the lights were on and the atmosphere was solemn and tense. The vast area of more than 2,000 square kilometers in the Nagasaki area has now become a dead and empty city. The people and prosperity of the past seem to have been ruthlessly wiped out by time.
Su Zhengyang sat at the head of the conference table, his brows furrowed and his eyes deep. He slowly put down the report in his hand and looked around. Every general's face was full of concentration and expectation. He said in a deep voice: "Everyone, according to the news we just received, the information provided by Ningji Okamura is accurate. Nagasaki, this once prosperous city, is now an empty city."
Gu De'an, the commander-in-chief of the expeditionary force, stood up immediately upon hearing this and said in a loud voice: "The president's analysis is correct. We cannot waste this God-given opportunity. I propose that the main force of the Chinese expeditionary force should immediately launch a landing operation plan and gain a foothold in Nagasaki and its surrounding areas as quickly as possible. After that, we will follow the established strategy and gradually advance to the Fukuoka area to reduce the enemy's living space."
Gudean's words were powerful and resonated with the generals present. They nodded in agreement and began to discuss the specific landing details and combat deployment.
"At the same time," Su Zhengyang took over the conversation, "we must also consider the overall strategy. The 300,000 elite troops of the Northwest Military Region Group Army should also take action as soon as possible. With the full cooperation of the North Sea Fleet, they will land at Changlu Port and head straight to the Heart Island area of Fuso Kyushu Island. This will be a heavy blow, enough to catch the enemy off guard and create favorable conditions for the advancement of our entire front."
Two days passed in a flash, like an arrow on a taut string. As the morning light broke, the coastline of Nagasaki gradually woke up from its slumber, ushering in an unprecedented turn of events. On the sea, huge troop transport ships, like steel behemoths, slowly sailed towards the shore, loaded with the elite forces of the Central Military Region of China - the five ace divisions, totaling more than 120,000 brave combat troops.
As the first troop transport gently touched the shore, the soldiers quickly and orderly jumped off the deck and stepped onto this strange land. Their steps were firm and powerful, and their eyes were shining with desire for victory and loyalty to the mission.
At this moment, Nagasaki is no longer a distant geographical term, but a battlefield where they defend the dignity of the country and make Fuso pay for its blood debt with blood.
At the same time, Chinese President Su Zhengyang, the leader and symbol of the country, also set foot on this tiny island shrouded in smoke and flames of war. His appearance was not only a great encouragement to the expeditionary soldiers, but also announced to the world China's determination to win this war.
Under Su Zhengyang's watch, the temporary command center was quickly built outside the city of Nagasaki. This temporary command center, although simple, is fully functional. It will become the brain and center of the entire combat operation. Under the unified dispatch of the command center, each unit began to set up a temporary camp in an orderly manner. Tents, fences, fortifications... everything is proceeding in a tense and orderly manner. The busy figures of the soldiers appear particularly tall in the morning light.
The logistics troops were also not idle. They quickly built a large logistics warehouse near the city to ensure that a steady supply of equipment and ammunition could be transported here from mainland China. Transport planes roared across the sky, accurately delivering boxes of ammunition and medicine to designated locations. These supplies not only guarantee the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, but also protect their lives.
In the headquarters' combat meeting room, the soft lighting could not conceal the tension and concentration in the air. Jia Zhengde, the commander of the 101st Division, a veteran general, stood tall beside the conference table, staring at the people in front of him, especially Su Zhengyang, the president of China and the highest commander of this expedition, who was sitting at the end of the long table.
"Report to the commander-in-chief," Jia Zhengde's voice was steady and powerful, and every word was clearly transmitted throughout the conference room. "Since our army officially landed in Nagasaki, we have quickly conducted a comprehensive reconnaissance and search of the urban area and the surrounding Qingfeng County, Changzhi County, and Jiudao County. The current situation is that the entire Nagasaki area, whether it is the prosperous urban area or the quiet countryside, has no trace of the Fuso people. It is obvious that they have completed a large-scale retreat before we arrived."
At this point, Jia Zhengde's face darkened slightly, and he continued, "However, this does not mean that we have not encountered challenges. When we went deep into the core areas of Nagasaki City and several large county towns, we encountered a large number of mines and explosives pre-buried by the enemy. These hidden traps caused certain losses to our troops, including the unfortunate sacrifice of some brave soldiers. But please rest assured, commander-in-chief, our engineering troops have taken quick action and are carrying out orderly and efficient mine clearance work in these areas, striving to eliminate these potential hidden dangers as soon as possible."
Su Zhengyang listened to Jia Zhengde's report quietly, with a complicated expression on his face. He knew the cruelty and ruthlessness of war, and also understood Jia Zhengde's mood at the moment. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke, his voice firm and powerful: "Commander Jia, I have heard your report. We have long anticipated the enemy's cunning and viciousness. But what we have to do is not only to respond to these challenges, but also to turn passivity into initiative and firmly grasp the situation in our own hands."
He looked around at the generals in the conference room and continued, "Therefore, I order General Liu Gangding to lead the logistics troops to take immediate action. We must clean up and build a military airport in the Nagasaki area that can be used by our Chinese aviation forces in the shortest possible time. This will be the key to our next combat plan and an important support for us to deliver a fatal blow to the enemy."
Su Zhengyang's eyes were blazing, and he said in a resounding voice: "Next, we must continue to advance and head towards the Fukuoka area. In three months, I will completely make the entire Fuso become the dust of history and make them exterminate their race!"
"Yes, Commander-in-Chief!"
Under Su Zhengyang's careful deployment, the offensive of the Chinese Expeditionary Force was like two unstoppable torrents, launching fierce attacks on the heart of Fuso from Nagasaki and Nagashika Port respectively.
First, there was the 28,000-man Skeleton Division, a unit known for its bravery and combat prowess, which was given the important task of being the vanguard. At the first light of dawn, they were ready to go, with the roar of chariots and the roar of artillery fire, demonstrating their strong combat effectiveness and invincible momentum.
Starting from the city of Nagasaki, they followed the established route and advanced eastward, taking each step with firm determination and fearless courage. Along the way, no matter the ruins or dense jungles, they could not stop their progress.
At the same time, at Changlu Port in the south of Kyushu Island, another even larger landing operation was underway. Hundreds of huge troop transport ships formed a spectacular array on the sea, carrying a steel torrent of 300,000 Northwest Military Region Army Group soldiers, rushing towards Changlu Port.
Following the commander's order, the soldiers poured out of the cabin like a tide and quickly established a stable landing point on the beach. Their arrival instantly made the originally quiet Changlu Port boil, with continuous artillery fire and smoke, presenting a shocking picture of war.
These two forces, one in the east and one in the south, echoed each other and wove together an impenetrable offensive network. They not only wanted to recover the lost territory, but also to deal a heavy blow to the enemy in Fuso and completely destroy its will to resist.
