Imperial warlords: Cannons are the only truth

the other side.

imperial capital.

The latest developments from the foreign country were quickly reported to Shen Moshen by the secret intelligence agency.

It must be said that, with the support of the system, the Great Qian side has a significant advantage in terms of intelligence.

Especially between the Yi Kingdom and the Sara Kingdom, which were at war, the secret intelligence agency's intelligence gathering on the Yi Kingdom and the Sara Kingdom was almost all-encompassing.

"The battle for Dagasa has been basically settled. With the secret weapon of fuel-air explosives, the outcome of the battle for Dagasa should be no more in doubt."

"Therefore, the Battle of Anma Island remains full of uncertainties."

"The main battlefield of the Battle of Anma Island was at sea."

"It must be said that the strength of the foreign navy is still quite formidable."

"Moreover, this battle will also be the first battle for our Great Qian Navy."

"Whether or not we can win this battle is of great significance."

"To be honest, I am more looking forward to the Battle of Anma Island than the Battle of Dagasa."

"The land warfare capabilities of the Daqian Zhenguo Army have already been tested in actual combat."

"Whether it's tactical application or the fighting spirit of daring to fight, there's no doubt about it."

"However, our navy has yet to encounter an opportunity for actual combat."

"While the figures on paper may seem impressive, without actually fighting a battle, it always feels unsettling..."

"Chief, please don't worry!"

"Although our navy has never had the opportunity to participate in combat, our training has always been conducted according to actual combat standards."

Zhou Guangming, the commander of the Daqian Zhenguo Navy, immediately assured Shen Moshen: "Although the foreign navy we are facing this time is a world-class military power."

"But our Great Qian Navy is not to be trifled with!"

"The Battle of Anma Island is a completely new challenge for our Great Qian Navy."

"To be honest, facing the world's top-ranked navy right from the start puts us under considerable pressure."

"However, we remain confident of winning the Battle of Anma."

"Good! Calm and composed! That's the right way!" Shen Moshen nodded with a smile: "You're right, the foreign navy does have some skills."

"Over the years, the barbarians have been vigorously developing their navy and have set their sights on surpassing the Georgian navy."

"The foreign navy has quite the ambition!"

"Moreover, they do have the right to be arrogant."

"Their navy is able to stand out among many powers, so they must have strength."

"Gu Yan, please give Commander Zhou a proper briefing on the latest situation of the foreign navy."

"Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle."

"In terms of intelligence, the Secret Intelligence Service has done a pretty good job."

"This is also one of our major advantages!"

"Chief, Commander Zhou." Chen Guyan, head of the Secret Intelligence Bureau, went straight to the point: "This time, the foreign navy is determined to win the Battle of Anma Island."

"The Japanese Prime Minister has already given the Japanese Navy a death order—at any cost, the victory at Anma Island must be used to boost morale."

"It is said that the Japanese Navy Minister, Nitta Naoya, made a pledge on the spot."

"Nitta Naoki is very confident about the Battle of Anma Island."

He believed that the foreign navy, which was on par with the Georgian navy, could not possibly have been defeated in the Battle of Anma Island...

Chen Guyan explained the latest intelligence in detail: "However, the success or failure of the Anma Island battle is related to the allocation of military funds for the new fiscal year in the Yi Kingdom."

"Therefore, although Nitta believed that our naval fleet could never defeat the foreign navy, he still adopted the safest approach."

"Intelligence indicates that the Japanese Navy Department formulated their operational plans based on intelligence analysis provided by the Japanese Intelligence Headquarters."

"Nitta said that the intelligence analysis provided by the foreign intelligence headquarters overestimated our army; but when formulating the deployment and operation plan, they still made sufficient arrangements based on the 'overestimated' data."

Chen Guyan paused for a moment, then continued, "According to the intelligence I have, the Foreign Navy is preparing to deploy four aircraft carrier fleets to the Anma Island conflict at once."

"What?" Upon hearing this news, both Shen Moshen and Zhou Guangming beside him showed expressions of great surprise.

"The barbarians are going to mobilize four aircraft carrier fleets to fight this battle?"

Shen Moshen immediately pressed on, "Is the intelligence reliable?"

"Isn't the foreign navy taking us a little too seriously???"

"Chief, this intelligence should be accurate..."

Chen Guyan explained, "Actually, this still involves the issue of funding and resource allocation."

"As long as the foreign navy wins this battle on Anma Island, they will receive more funding and resources."

"Therefore, the foreign army now doesn't actually want to see the foreign navy making a big splash on Anma Island..."

"And the foreign navy also did not want to leave any hidden dangers or variables in this battle."

"Therefore, they directly mobilized four carrier strike groups to prepare for a crushing defeat of our forces on Anma Island..."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Guangming broke out in a cold sweat: "This intelligence came just in time!"

"Originally, we thought that deploying two carrier strike groups in the Battle of Anma Island was a sure thing..."

"I never expected—the barbarians are even more ruthless! They sent four of them!"

"Could this be the 'pride' of the foreign navy? Don't they look down on our Great Qian Navy?"

"They look down on us and still send four aircraft carrier fleets; if they really cared, they'd probably bring over the entire foreign navy..."

"Nitta Naoki is quite 'pragmatic,' his playing style is really solid!"

"How was it? Was this real-world test exciting enough?"

Shen Moshen turned around and went to the map, looking at the location of Anma Island: "I really didn't expect that our first battle would involve such a large force."

"Commander Zhou, how do you plan to respond to this change?"

"Chief, as the saying goes, 'It is impolite not to reciprocate.'"

Zhou Guangming smiled and said frankly, "Since the barbarians attach so much importance to this battle, we must also show our 'sincerity'."

"Aren't the barbarians going to deploy four aircraft carrier fleets this time?"

"Then we'll deploy six aircraft carrier fleets! In any case, we definitely can't have fewer than the barbarians."

"After all, naval warfare is different from land warfare, and the probability of winning with fewer troops is extremely rare."

"Since the foreign navy is one of the world's strongest, we must not be complacent."

"Therefore, we must take this enemy seriously."

"We must double it! This is also a sign of respect for this battle!"

"A gang fight tactic?"

"No! Chief of Staff, we call this concentrating superior forces to seek victory through stability!" Zhou Guangming gave a very reasonable explanation in a serious tone.

“Hmm, that makes sense…” Shen Moshen smiled and said, “Everyone has their own expertise. You are the professionals in this area. You can figure out how to fight it yourselves.”

"I will absolutely not interfere in the command of the war, and I will resolutely prevent the situation from arising where laymen blindly command experts."

"I'll say it again—I don't care about the process, I only care about the result!"

"The Battle of Anma Island was the first battle of our Great Qian Navy, and also a counterattack to recover lost territory."

Shen Moshen's tone suddenly turned serious: "This battle is also a battle to demonstrate the power of our Great Qian Kingdom."

"Therefore, the Battle of Anma Island is the same as the Battle of Dagasa."

"Just five words—Victory is the only option, defeat is not an option!"

"I have absolutely no worries about Dagasa – it's as stable as it gets."

"Commander Zhou, the pressure is now on your side."

Shen Moshen glanced at Zhou Guangming and continued, "None of us expected that the Battle of Anma Island would directly escalate into a war of the century."

"No one could have imagined that the Battle of Anma would become the largest carrier battle to date."

"Both sides will deploy at least ten aircraft carrier fleets!"

"There shouldn't be any precedent for this in the entire history of naval warfare, right?"

"No! Absolutely not!" Zhou Guangming said with absolute certainty, "This battle has set a new record for naval warfare."

Looking at Zhou Guangming's serious face, Shen Moshen joked, "How about it? Feeling nervous?"

"Chief of Staff, to say you felt no pressure in the face of such a situation would be a lie..."

Zhou Guangming said solemnly, "There is pressure! But this will not affect our determination to win in the slightest!"

"Chief of Staff, if there's nothing else, I'd like to go back immediately and hold an emergency military meeting to thoroughly discuss and redeploy the operational plan for the Battle of Anma Island."

"Okay! Let's leave it at that for now."

"Keep in touch with any updates from the Secret Intelligence Agency."

Shen Moshen emphasized again: "Remember - just go for it! You decide how to fight, don't have any reservations."

"I only care about the results!"
