.

The most obvious benefit of reducing the size of decision-making institutions and concentrating power in the hands of a few people is to improve decision-making efficiency.

When Mu Haoyang returned to the headquarters in the afternoon, Qi Kaiwei had already come up with a relatively complete combat plan, including tasks assigned to special forces.

After a few hours, Mu Haoyang came up with a specific action plan.

Although according to the decision-making procedures, it is only submitted to Huang Zhibo after the overall combat plan is determined, and the commander-in-chief makes the final decision, and then the combat tasks are assigned to combat troops at all levels, the special forces are very special, and it is even more special to infiltrate behind enemy lines to perform combat tasks.

In the evening, Zhang Baoqiang came to him.

He was busy for a day and according to Mu Haoyang's instructions, he organized more than 400 officers and soldiers from the two brigades into ten detachments, and arranged a captain and a deputy captain respectively.

"This is your combat mission." Mu Haoyang handed over the mission letter to Zhang Baoqiang and said, "It should be emphasized that before the battle begins, your main task is to reconnaissance and understand the deployment of the coalition forces, especially the situation on the logistics supply line, but do not alert the enemy, and do not act without authorization."

"Land down?"

"That's about that."

"But……"

"I will arrange support for you."

"What support force?"

"The intelligence personnel of the Second Division, and the People's Army guerrillas on the battlefield behind enemy lines."

Zhang Baoqiang nodded and said, "Okay, we'll leave right away."

“All ready?”

"According to your requirements, we have formed ten teams, each with about forty people. Based on past combat experience, even the armed transport convoys of the coalition forces is enough."

“What if there is a bigger goal?”

"It's okay, at most several teams can work together."

"It seems that nothing is worth worrying about."

"Is there anything else?"

"There is nothing else, remember to change the equipment of the People's Army."

Zhang Baoqiang nodded and agreed, then said goodbye and left.

The Snow Leopard Commando has been active on the Korean battlefield for more than a month and has performed dozens of missions. In the battlefield behind enemy lines, in order to facilitate the supply of ammunition, special forces either use the People's Army's standard weapons or the coalition's standard weapons, and will definitely not use the team's standard weapons.

In fact, this is not just a matter of special forces.

When arranging ground troops to fight in North Korea, some people suggested that the troops should be replaced, especially the guns and ammunition used by infantry. It is best to choose the Type 81 automatic rifle that uses the same ammunition as the People's Army, rather than the Type 97 with the 5.8mm rifle bullet. It is difficult to change the Type 81 automatic rifle in the 6th Army. There are not many Type 81 automatic rifles in stock, and the inventory of 7.62mm ammunition bullets is not large. If it is consumed on a large scale, the production line of Type 81 rifles and gun bullets must be restarted. Because North Korea's arms factories were destroyed and could not produce weapons and ammunition, they had to provide supplies to the People's Army. In the end, Huang Zhibo chose another method, namely, to change the People's Army in batches.

Of course, these are not issues that Mu Haoyang needs to consider.

After Zhang Baoqiang left, Mu Haoyang first went to find Qi Kaiwei, reported on the dispatch of special forces, and then went to meet with the intelligence liaison officers who arrived.

Although not among the "five-man group" promoted by Huang Zhibo, the importance of intelligence liaison officer Li Mingyang is not low at all.

In the decision-making body of the Volunteer Army, Li Mingyang played a very important role. Strictly speaking, he is not a formal member of the Volunteer Army, nor even a formal soldier. However, as an intelligence liaison officer, he is responsible for providing crucial battlefield intelligence. With this identity, Li Mingyang can report directly to Huang Zhibo and can use intelligence to influence Huang Zhibo, thereby demonstrating his own value.

In a sense, Li Mingyang is Huang Zhibo's number one assistant.

Mu Haoyang had heard of Li Mingyang's name for a long time, but it was the first time he had seen him.

Li Mingyang gave Mu Haoyang a very strange feeling. He seemed to have seen it somewhere and was very familiar with it, which forced Mu Haoyang to suspect that he was Li Ming with a changed face.

"Director Li, have you just arrived?"

"Yes, I just arrived and there was a traffic jam on the Yalu River Bridge, otherwise I wouldn't be late."

"You are the second Director Li I know." When I invited Li Mingyang into the office, Mu Haoyang asked tentatively.

"The second one?" Li Mingyang seemed a little surprised.

"All the directors of the second department."

"Staff General Mu, you're thinking too much." Li Mingyang smiled and said, "Half of the people in the second department's surname is Li, and there are dozens or hundreds of directors, almost all of them have surnames Li."

"How do you know I'm overthinking?"

Li Mingyang was stunned, as if he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and changed his words and said, "On the way here, I received a call from Qi Kaiwei, saying that special operations require intelligence support?"

"Yes, without intelligence support, the special forces cannot complete the combat mission."

"What combat mission?"

"There are three." Mu Haoyang went to take the combat plan to piao astronomy network, the third was to carry out damage behind enemy lines. Because it needed to infiltrate the coalition's defense line, I just sent the first special forces."

“How many people are there?”

"About four hundred, organized into ten combat teams."

“What is their mission?”

"Destruction behind enemy lines."

Li Mingyang nodded, looked up and said to Mu Haoyang, "When will the other troops come out?"

"The special forces responsible for undermining the coalition communications command network will be released within 24 o'clock."

"So, it's urgent?"

“The faster the better.”

After closing the document, Li Mingyang picked up the cigarette and said, "I probably looked at the combat plan you have formulated. As an intelligence officer, I have no right to evaluate the tactical part, but from a time perspective, this battle operation was too hasty and a lot of preparations could not be arranged in time."

"Where is the intelligence?"

"This is the question I want to talk about." Li Mingyang pushed down his frameless glasses and said, "Before you plan, the second department has made adjustments to the intelligence work and provided assistance to the decision-making of the battle. In terms of special operations, before the battle begins, the special forces must lurk behind enemy lines, so they need to be covered. I will contact the guerrillas as soon as possible to cooperate with the special forces. As for the intelligence required for combat, it takes time."

"About when will it be done?"

"I can't be sure, after all, the intelligence work was not carried out as planned."

Mu Haoyang nodded and said, "Maybe, I can help."

Li Mingyang was stunned for a moment and said, "Major, what can you do?"

"Ma Mingtao."

"Do you know him?" Li Mingyang was a little surprised.

"I have worked with him twice. The last time I saw him, I was near Er. I heard that the second master had no intention of letting him leave South Korea."

"He is indeed in Korea and is not exposed."

"Then, let him contact a Korean general named Ahn Jae-wook."

Li Mingyang's brows jumped a few times, as if he felt that Mu Haoyang knew too much.

"An Zai-xu was captured by the special forces under my command. Since Ma Mingtao was not exposed, he is still working for us."

"It seems that I have to let the second department perfect your personal profile."

Mu Haoyang smiled and said, "How is it, is it helpful?"

"It really helps, but it still takes time." Li Mingyang hesitated for a moment and said, "An Jae-wook is no longer the commander of the rear security. He was sent to the front line last month. He is now the commander of the logistics support force of the coalition Western Front Corps, commanding three Korean military advisors."

“High?”

“With us helping, it’s not difficult to get promoted.”

"If this is the case, it would be better."

"You mean, let him provide information?"

“Isn’t this ready-made?”

"Major, you have to know that we sacrificed a lot of comrades to help him up, so we will never lose such an important mole for a campaign." Li Mingyang glanced at Mu Haoyang and said, "Continuing to ensure his safety will definitely bring greater benefits."

"So, is there a way to obtain important information without affecting him?"

“Yes, but it requires careful planning and time.”

"Director Li, what we lack most now is time. If there is enough time, we don't have to bother you."

Li Mingyang smiled and shook his head, saying, "Major, you are indeed a senior staff officer of the Volunteer Army. You are very similar to Qi Kaiwei and his mother Qi Tie and Yang Yufang."

"picture?"

"What intelligence work needs most is time. No matter how urgent you urge, it will not work. So, what you need is not time, but patience."

"You can say this to me, but I can't say this to the commander-in-chief."

"That's your business, not mine."

"you……"

Li Mingyang sighed and said, "If I guess correctly, the amphibious special forces will be released tomorrow, right?"

"Yes, Colonel Cao Anguo led the team."

"Okay, I'll help you think of a solution and try to give you an answer before tomorrow dark." Li Mingyang patted his thigh and said with a smile, "I have some friendship with the amphibious special forces. Colonel Cao Anguo has also helped me. Since I help him with work, I will definitely do my best."

"Do you know Team Cao?"

"Of course, and not only him."

Mu Haoyang was stunned for a moment, and believed even more that Li Mingyang was Li Ming.

"I won't talk to you more, I'll talk to Qi Kaiwei." Li Mingyang stood up and said, "If I can't come tomorrow, I'll say hello to Lao Cao for me."

"I want to treat you to drink again?" Mu Haoyang threw out the bait.

"It's a favor to pay back. If you want to drink, you have to let him treat you." Li Mingyang smiled, "I'm leaving, don't have to send you far. I'll call you tomorrow afternoon and still pass on information through formal channels. You'd better have a backup plan, because I can't guarantee that you can provide the information you need."

Mu Haoyang nodded to express his understanding.

After seeing off Li Mingyang, Mu Haoyang recalled the meeting again. He always felt that in some aspects, Li Mingyang was very similar to Li Ming, such as the tone of speaking and some habitual movements. What is most similar is the attitude of dealing with things, that is, he has always been self-centered.
