On the afternoon of the 21st local time, the Liangxia Naval Headquarters issued the highest combat readiness order, and the two task forces in the Guia Ocean have also entered a state of combat readiness.

According to the decoded message, the two task forces will leave the anchorage in the early morning of the 22nd.

As expected, the third fleet, the landing fleet that remained at the anchorage of Nanliu Huangdao, would depart early in the morning, that is, in a few hours.

The key is that there is also intelligence that the Liangxia Navy is preparing to attack the transit island.

This information has not been proven for the time being.

Here, the intelligence war between the two sides is involved.

At the end of last year, shortly after the Battle of the Guia Navy, the Nuland intelligence agency obtained a set of Liangxia naval communication codes through fugitive narrow-minded intelligence agents. Although during the war, the Liang Xia navy would change the code book once a month, but its coding rules have been traced, and it is possible to obtain some scattered information through intercepted telegrams, so as to make a rough guess about the actions of the Liang Xia navy.

Don't underestimate this scattered information.

Even if it is just a sentence or even a few words that have been deciphered, it has a military value that cannot be underestimated.

For example, at the beginning of the year, through the deciphered telegram, the Nuland intelligence agency speculated that the Liang Xia Navy was about to send troops to attack Shiquan City. After that, based on this speculation, he persuaded the Bran authorities to increase the number of troops in Fan Yanyang, and only then did he form a joint fleet to go to Fan Yanyang.

After the Battle of Fanyan in the Southwest, the Nuland intelligence agency discovered that a location codenamed 001 appeared in the daily communication messages of the Liangxia Navy.

At that time, the Nuland intelligence agency suspected that this "001" referred to the transit island.

In order to prove this speculation, the Nuland Navy failed to deliver parts of desalination equipment to the transit island three times in a row, which is a necessary consumable to be precise, and as a result, one desalination equipment could not work properly, and the defenders on the island could only limit the supply of fresh water.

During this period, in the telegrams of the Liang Xia Navy, the frequency of "001" increased significantly.

Of course, under the guidance of the intelligence agency, the Nuland Navy also adopted other methods to prove that the Liang Xia Navy was targeting the transit island.

For example, bombers will be sent to the transit island from time to time, and in the Liangxia naval telegram during the same period, there will definitely be content related to it.

These signs all prove that the Liang Xia Navy is preparing to attack the transit island.

However, there is one problem that has never been properly explained.

The Narrow-Sized Imperial Kingdom has been defeated, and the Narrow-Yi intelligence personnel who did not have time to escape have long been controlled by the Liangxia Empire, and the intelligence agencies of the Liangxia Empire don't know that the navy's password has been leaked? The key point is that the set of passwords provided by the Sayi intelligence officers was obtained before the war, and there were not a few people who knew about it, and some of them stayed in the Sayi Imperial State and were still working for the Liang Xia intelligence agency.

Also, what reason does Liang Xiajun have to use a set of passwords all the time?

Changing your password is not complicated.

Besides, after the defeat of the Narrow Imperial Kingdom and the entry of the Newland Federation into the war, as the scope of the battle expanded, the Liang Xia Navy would definitely have to change the code.

In addition, it is too explicit to use "001" to refer to the transit island.

Feelings, these are all deliberate, and the Liang Xia Navy seems to be worried that the Nuland Navy will not guess its strategic intention to attack the transit island.

Not to mention Hal, even Niz felt that this was a trick of the Liang Xia Navy, and its fundamental purpose was to ask the Nuland Navy to strengthen the defense deployment of the transit island, so as to sneak attack Wei Island.

It's just that Spu doesn't think so.

If you want to say it, there is only one reason.

After the battle on Saidao ended, the Liangxia Navy did not withdraw the marines, and the four marine divisions that participated in the combat operation of attacking Saidao were all in the Guia Ocean, of which two divisions were on Saidao, one division was on Liuhuangdao, and the other one was on Nanliuhuangdao, where the landing fleet was located.

This kind of deployment is very abnormal.

If the troops were to be allowed to recuperate, they should all be withdrawn to their homeland, at least to the Imperial State of Narrows, not to remain on the isolated islands of the frontier.

It is also reasonable to send it to Fan Yanyang, after all, the Liangxia Empire still wants to take Bosha Bay.

Staying in the West and East and still deployed on the forward islands, it can only be said that the Liangxia Navy is ready to launch an attack in the near future.

So, where do you need to use 4 Marine Divisions to attack?

You must know that even when attacking Sai Island, at most, only 3 marine divisions were dispatched, and not 4 marine divisions were deployed together.

In the early days of the landing on the island, only one marine division was used.

According to the statistics made by the Nuland Navy, during the offensive and defensive battles on the island, the Liangxia ground forces fighting on the front line actually had only one marine division.

It's not that they are reluctant to invest, it's that the battlefield is too small to invest too many troops.

It was on the basis of these that Sipu still believed that Liang Xia's navy was preparing to attack Transit Island, not Wei Island.

Strictly speaking, the attack on the transit island is only the beginning, and after occupying the transit island, it will continue to advance eastward.

Only by attacking several islands in a row will it be necessary to dispatch 4 Marine Divisions at once.

Although 4 marine divisions are certainly not enough to capture the entire Khowaii Islands, during the campaign, the Liangxia Navy will definitely increase its forces.

Theoretically, 4 Marine Divisions would be enough to capture 2 or 3 islands and build a solid defense.

If you want to say that, the Liang Xia Navy seized the three islands to the west of the archipelago in one fell swoop, forming a corner trend, and the Nuland Navy will be powerless to return to the sky.

As for the password, Spu felt that he wanted to get away with it.

In this regard, Sp made a very bold speculation.

If the Liang Xia Navy were to attack the transit island, not Wei Island, then the two task forces deployed at the anchorage of Liuhuangdao and Beiliuhuangdao would set off at the same time, with an interval of only a few hours at most, and the 21st task force in the south would depart first.

The reason is also very simple: to go to the transit island, starting from Liuhuang Island and Beiliu Huangdao, the voyage is about the same.

On the contrary, if you go to Koh Wih, it is a few hundred kilometers away.

In this way, the 22nd Task Force, which should be deployed at the anchorage of Beiliu Huangdao, set off first.

As for going to the transit island, why let the 21st Task Force set off first, instead of still letting the 22nd Task Force set off first, Sp was gambling on luck.

To put it simply, he felt that the White War was in the 21st Task Force.

There was no reason, just Spu's instincts.

Of course, it can be seen as a habit.

In Tian Shi's words, the Liang Xia Navy is more in compliance with the usual rules in the number of the fleet, unlike the Nuland Navy, which is as freewheeling.

It is precisely because of this that whether the two task forces set off together has become the key basis for judging which island the Liang Xia Navy will attack.

It's just that it's not easy to get accurate intelligence.

For Spu, the senior admiral of the Nuland Navy, what can be done now is to be patient.

In fact, the problem of intelligence has always existed, and it is the same for both warring parties.

In Spu's words, in many cases, their number one enemy was not the Liangxia navy, but the deranged and often untimely delivery of information.

If there is timely and reliable intelligence, then it is no longer difficult to win the war.

Unfortunately, no one can guarantee timely and reliable information.

If I want to say it, it is because there is no guarantee that timely and reliable information can be obtained, so that the talent and ability of commanders such as Spu and Bai Zhizhan can be revealed.
