Three days later.

The morning sun shines into the office of the Great Wall Military Factory, where Fang Yu is reviewing the latest carrier-based aircraft test report.

The phone rang suddenly.

Fang Yu picked up the phone and found that the person on the other end was General Chen.

"Mr. Chen, long time no see. How come you have time to call me today?"

"Xiao Fang, no time for small talk."

On the other end of the phone, General Chen's voice was filled with urgency.

"Come to the Imperial Capital immediately. The Military Commission wants to see you regarding something important."

"Now?"

Fang Yu glanced at the pile of documents on the table.

"Yes, the special plane is already waiting at the airport."

General Chen's tone left no room for doubt.

“This is urgent!”

"……Understood!"

Hearing this, Fang Yu pondered for a moment.

Then he put down the phone and quickly packed up some important documents.

He knew that anything that could make General Chen speak in such a tone must be very important.

After giving a few instructions to Wang Changhai, Fang Yu left and boarded the Great Wall Military Factory's special plane, heading towards the imperial capital.

The special plane was flying through the clouds. Fang Yu looked at the white clouds outside the window, his thoughts a little confused.

The Emperor called me so urgently, could it be...

Soon, the plane landed at the Imperial Capital Airport.

At the Imperial Capital Airport, a military jeep has been waiting for a long time.

"Chief Engineer Fang, please get in the car."

The guards stood at attention and saluted.

The car sped along, passing through the streets of the imperial capital.

Fang Yu noticed that the security along the way had been significantly strengthened.

Every intersection was guarded by armed soldiers, and there were almost no civilians on the streets.

In the central compound, the number of guards is twice as many as usual.

"This way, please."

The guard led Fang Yu to the conference hall.

Pushing open the heavy mahogany door, Fang Yu was stunned.

In the huge conference room, dozens of military leaders have already taken their seats.

The Air Force Commander, the Navy Commander, the commanders of the major military regions...even several highly respected war generals were present.

This was the first time Fang Yu had seen a meeting of this scale.

He glanced across the conference table; everyone's expression was unusually serious.

There was a solemn atmosphere in the air, like the calm before the storm.

Fang Yu sat down in the assigned seat, having already made a judgment in his mind.

Something major must have happened, and it was probably related to Frog Island.

Otherwise, so many senior military officials would not have been convened for an emergency meeting at this critical juncture.

Not long.

The conference hall was silent as President Lu walked in slowly.

Fang Yu was about to stand up when President Lu waved his hand and motioned him to sit down. "Xiao Fang, thank you for making you rush here. I've worked hard."

"Boss Lu," Fang Yu sat up straight, "Why are you calling this meeting so urgently? Has something happened?"

General Lu stood in front of the rostrum and glanced at every general present.

He coughed lightly, his voice steady and powerful: "Everyone, I have called you here today to discuss a matter of great importance to the future of our country."

The atmosphere in the conference room became more solemn.

"I think everyone knows,"

Mr. Lu continued.

"Frog Island has been very active lately. According to intelligence, they're not only trying to collude with Sakura Country, but are even planning to develop mushroom bombs!"

The generals present exchanged glances.

Some people clenched their fists, and some nodded secretly.

"So, after careful consideration by the organization,"

There is a special power in Mr. Lu's voice.

“Think it’s time to address the Frog Island issue.”

A murmur of discussion broke out in the conference room.

"Our Navy just won a major victory in the Pacific,"

Mr. Lu pointed at the map on the wall.

"It proves that we are capable of controlling the sea. The strength of our air force is also sufficient to ensure air superiority."

He paused. "But to completely resolve the Frog Island issue, naval and air superiority alone is not enough."

Fang Yu noticed that Mr. Lu's gaze turned to him.

"We need to deploy a large number of army troops for the landing operation," said General Lu. "According to the General Staff's estimates, we will need at least 200,000 troops to ensure the capture of Frog Island in one fell swoop."

The Vice Chairman of the Central Military Commission took over the conversation.

"But here's the problem. Our current landing equipment can only transport 50,000 people at a time. That's not enough."

"Yes," the Navy Commander said, "we have too few amphibious landing ships now."

"Even if all civilian ships were requisitioned, it would be difficult to complete such a large-scale troop deployment in a short period of time."

Mr. Lu nodded.

"That's right. So I invited you here today, Xiao Fang, just to ask if you have any good ideas to solve this problem?"

He looked at Fang Yu with anticipation in his eyes.

"After all, you gave us such a big surprise with the aircraft carrier and the carrier-based aircraft."

"Do you have any good ideas for this login issue?"

There was silence in the conference room.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Fang Yu, the young chief engineer who had once rewritten the power structure of the Pacific with an aircraft carrier.

Now, they expect him to create miracles again.

Fang Yu sat there, feeling everyone's gaze.

He understood that this was not just a technical issue, but also related to the success or failure of the great cause of national reunification.

After hearing what Mr. Lu said, Fang Yu's expression changed from surprise to joy, and finally to contemplation.

This mission reminded him of the regrets in another time and space.

In that world, the great cause of unification was repeatedly postponed for various reasons, and eventually became an eternal pain.

Unexpectedly, in this dimension, I would have the opportunity to fulfill this dream with my own hands.

However, at this moment, a name suddenly popped up in his mind.

"Kumon..." He murmured the name in a low voice.

The painful memory of that battle came to mind.

The tide was wrong, there were not enough landing craft, and the supply lines were cut off... Soldiers fell on the beach one after another, and wooden boats were smashed to pieces.

In the end, a battle that should have been won failed due to insufficient transportation capacity.

Fang Yu's fingers tapped unconsciously on the table, which was his habitual action when thinking.

“We must not repeat the same mistakes this time.”

He swore secretly in his heart.

The deployment of an army of 200,000 is no small number.

The existing number of landing ships is far from enough. Even if all civilian ships are requisitioned, it is a fantasy to complete such a large-scale troop deployment in a short period of time.

What's more, this time we are not facing a small island like Kinmen.

To complete the landing under the enemy's firepower network, without professional amphibious combat equipment, the casualties will be staggeringly large.

"To transport such a large force, we must have a special landing ship..."

Fang Yu's gaze became profound.

In his mind, design drawings of various equipment began to emerge: large landing ships, air-cushion landing craft, amphibious armored vehicles... Each type of equipment has its own characteristics and limitations.

To solve the transportation capacity problem in the shortest possible time, a single type of equipment is obviously not enough.

A complete equipment system is needed to ensure that this operation is foolproof.

Fang Yu’s thoughts flew further and further away.

He began to recall the various landing equipment he had seen in the database: the Eagles' LST landing ships, the Johns' hovercraft, the Russians' amphibious tanks...

"Maybe..." His eyes gradually brightened, and a bold idea was taking shape.

Everyone else in the conference room held their breath, waiting for the young chief engineer to speak.

They all knew that every time Fang Yu showed this expression, it meant that another shocking move was about to happen.

Mr. Lu was also concentrating on observing the changes in Fang Yu's expression.

As an old politician, he knew that look all too well: it was the look a genius would have when he was conceiving a new idea.

Fang Yu's fingers stopped tapping.

He began to sketch quickly in his notebook, frowning and relaxing at times, obviously engaged in a fierce brainstorming.

As time went by, a grand idea gradually took shape in Fang Yu's mind...
