Chapter 529: Season 2 Book 21 Shadow of War 2- 4-1 Follow-up Measures for New China

On January 20, 2024, at 20:00 (local time: 21:00),

120km east end of Katsura City, Chiba Prefecture, Japan (North (LHD-6202) Operation Meeting Room).

The sun had set over the horizon, and several maritime helicopter were hovering around the multi-purpose amphibious assault ship, which resembled a medium-sized aircraft carrier, and they were making a distinctive engine sound over the dark sea.

These maritime helicopter were carrying captains and operational staff aboard from the two Hocula cruises belonging to the 2nd and 7th Fleet.

The Navy`s Mk. 99A Super Lynx and MH-101 Surion II helicopters landed on the plane deck of the North (LHD-6202) ship, a multi-purpose amphibious assault ship belonging to the 10th Amphibious Fleet`s 56th Amphibious Division, according to the instructions of the guide.

* Ganghwa Island had an amphibious assault ship with a full displacement of 60,000 tons, but it was an amphibious assault ship specialized in amphibious warfare. Furthermore, the Republic of Korea Navy requested a multi-purpose amphibious assault ship that can also serve as an aircraft carrier in an emergency from the Ministry of National Defense. As a result, the two shipyards began construction in 2021 and were given the names South (LHD-6201) and North (LHD-6202) ships in February 2023. They were deployed and officially commissioned in May by the 10th Amphibious Fleet’s 53rd and 56th Amphibious Divisions, respectively.

The North Ship (LHD-6202), with a full displacement of 100,000 tons, had a very wide plane deck. Following the landing of several maritime helicopters on the ship, the captain and operational staff headed to the bridge under the guidance of soldiers wearing yellow vests.

The captains and commanders had gathered at the Eulji Mundok (DDG-1013), the flagship of the 2nd Fleet, for the operational meeting until the morning, but because more than 20 maritime helicopters flocked at the same time and there was a lot of delaying due to landing procedures, Admiral Kim I-won decided to hold the operational meeting at the North ship (LHD-6202) an hour ago.

Following the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s Shin Sung- yong’s orders to reinforce the allied fleet during the Joint Chiefs of Staff’s Meeting on the 18th, the Navy Operations Command decided to dispatch the North (LHD-6202) ship from the 10th Amphibious Fleet’s 56th Amphibious Division for amphibious operations. In addition to additional destroyers, including Geojedo (LHD-5112), Jindo (LHD-5114) of the Third Destroyer fleet belonging to the Third Fleet.

At that time, the North ship (LHD-6202) was commissioned as an aircraft carrier rather than an amphibious ship.

Accordingly, the North ship (LHD-6202) was equipped with 48 CWA-11P Phoenix attack aircraft and a variety of aviation forces armed with anti-ship missiles and anti-aircraft missiles. Whereas the Geojedo (LHD-5112) and Jindo (LHD-5114) destroyers were each outfitted with 16 CWA-11P phoenix attack aircraft.

The CWA-11P Phoenix attack aircraft, whose primary mission was ground attack during amphibious operations, is now responsible for attacking ships as well as air warfare with US Navy ships. in addition to the 3rd Fleet’s 3rd Destroyer Division. As a result, the Allied Fleet was able to wield greater power.

In fact, the 3rd destroyer fleet of the 3rd Fleet was the 2nd most powerful destroyer fleet after the 7th Fleet.

After one year of repairs and upgrades, Sejong the Great destroyer(DDG-997), Kang Gam-chan destroyer (DDH-979), and Choe Yeong destroyer (DDH-981), which were partially destroyed during the First Northeast Asian War, were re-deployed. Seoae Ryu Seong-ryong destroyer (DDG-993) and Yeon Jeong-to destroyer (DDH-985), which were sunk after being attacked by the U.S. Navy Zoom-based destroyer, were newly built and recommissioned under the same names, Seoae Ryu Seong-ryong destroyer (DDG-1009) and Yeon Jeong-to destroyer (DDG-716), as CC-4 and CD-5 classes, respectively.

In particular, the Yeon Jeong-to destroyer (DDG-716), also called the mini-Hocula destroyer, is the next-generation destroyer to cope with the KD-2 class destroyer and Daegu-class frigate with a displacement of 5,500 tons.

Finally, the KD-1 class Yang Manchun (DDH-973), which suffered more severe damage, was decommissioned rather than repaired, and, like the Seoae Ryu Seong-ryong destroyer (DDG-1009), it was recommissioned as a KD-4 class Hocula destroyer with the destroyer number DDG-1012.

As a result, the 3rd Destroyer Division of the 3rd Fleet`s power, which had been newly constructed or reorganized through repairs and upgrades, was incomparable to the previous power.

The captains who entered the North ship (LHD-6202), the most recent multi-purpose amphibious assault ship, couldn’t keep their mouths shut and looked around with curious eyes and exclaimed. However, only the two captains and the ship’s operational staff appeared to be calm.

After a while, the operational meeting room on the third floor was packed with captains and staff members. Even with about 50 soldiers gathered in it, it was adequate. Admiral Kim I-won, the commander of the 2nd Fleet and the current commander in command of the Allied fleet, cracked jokes to lighten the mood, with captains and operational staff seated on both sides of the 8m long table.

“After all, at our age, it is much better to have a face-to-face meeting rather than a video conference! Don’t you think so?

As a result, the captains and operational staff wore easy-going smiles, and the tense atmosphere dissipated quickly.

“Now! Because we have new people joining us today. Let us reintroduce ourselves, beginning from the left.”

“Yes, I’ll go first. Hello. I’m Brigadier General Ahn Hyeong-gyun, the 7th Fleet Commander. Nice to meet you all.”

Admiral Ahn Hyung-kyun rose from his seat, introduced himself briefly, saluted, and sat down. The others then began introducing themselves clockwise.

After introducing themselves to the new arrivals of the amphibious assault ship commanders of the 56th Amphibious Group and the commanders of the 3rd Destroyer Group, the operational conference room held in-depth operational meetings over two hours regarding the navel war that could take place with the U.S. Navy.

By the end of the meeting, The atmosphere was very positive. This was due to the fact that, in addition to the existing destroyers, there was an air force capable of engaging with the US Navy’s aircraft.

Despite the fact that air force support was expected from air bases in Japan and Namju, the fact that the Allied Fleet could now directly administer air force depending on the situation of the war made a huge strategic difference.

With the 78 CWA-11P phoenix attack aircraft, 46 in the North (LHD-6202) and 16 in each of the Geojedo (LHD-5112) and Jindo (LHD-5114) ships, they had now valuable aerial power to deal with the US Navy aircraft carrier.

Currently, the three Ford-class aircraft carriers belonging to the U.S. Navy’s Pacific Fleet are operating 64 stealth fighters, the F-35C Lightning II, on each, and in the various amphibious assault ships, 12 to 24 F-35B Lightning II are in service on each.

As a result, the Pacific Fleet air force reached up to 350 attackers, while the number of the CWA-11P Phoenix attackers was only 78, which might be insignificant. It was a 5:1 ratio, which shows an overwhelming power.

Underground bunker of the Blue House National Crisis Center in Jongno-gu, Seoul.

On the fourth day after the war with New China had ended, the Blue House held an important meeting today to decide on a number of decisions that were piling up.

First and foremost, the management of New China’s territorial and people’s migration plans were given top priority.

Although the related departments primarily established their own plans, but of the overlapping tasks in various departments, it was critical not only to coordinate tasks through the cabinet meeting, but also to identify the tasks for which each department should take responsibility and carry out.

Under international law, the territory of New China officially became the territory of the Republic of Korea, but some people and a small number of military commanders resisted forcefully, claiming that the agreement between the two legitimate countries were invalid. Accordingly, the Ministry of National Defense ordered the south Korean troops who were deployed there for a massive sweeping operation in various parts of New China, and it was almost done with only the western part of Shaanxi Province was left.

They were confronted with a problem due to civilian resistance, and unlike the New China Army, they were unable to overpower the civilians with firearms and force.

In response to that, the Ministry of Security and Public Administration used police to arrest and detain people who participated in the illegal demonstrations and then quickly transferred them to the Republic of China and the Eastern Republic of China.

They were, however, met with fierce opposition. The people threatened to inform the world about human rights violations if the police used even a small amount of force. In the past, when Xi Jinping or Wang Jing-wi was in charge of the communist regime, the police felt absurd when they heard people discussing “human rights” or “suppressing human rights”.

Anyway, the Central Police Agency, which had to arrest hundreds of people every day who fiercely resisted by using public power as much as possible internationally, had deployed all police officers to New China’s territory except for a small number of security personnel.

Therefore, the Central Police Agency has begun a large-scale recruitment of new police personnel, as the police’s duties will become more demanding as the plan progresses over the next several years.

Despite the fact that it was a popular occupation with salaries comparable to large corporations and various welfare benefits, Korea was currently experiencing an unprecedented shortage of manpower. There were more jobs than there were job seekers looking for a job. In the past, such a thing was unimaginable.

There was a long line of companies that wanted to hire the student as soon as they graduated from high school or university. This resolved one social issue. As the competition for entrance exams faded, so did private education, which had become a socially divisive issue. As a result, students had more free time because there was no alternative to basic school education, and the old term “hell of the entrance exams” vanished.

” Hiring 20,000 police personnel······. It won’t be easy.”

After Minister Kim Soo-gyeom of the Department of Administrative Affairs finished his remarks, Prime Minister Lee Youn-yeon nodded and said.

“Yes, you may think that is too much manpower, but if you calculate the manpower required for the current migration plan, 20,000 will not even be sufficient, and at least 100,000 officer will be required to maintain the security in New China’s territories.”

Minister Kim Soo-gyeom made additional remarks in a complaining tone.

“Okay, as for now, how about getting support from the Ministry of Disaster and Safety temporarily until the Central Police Agency recruits the necessary personnel? ”

With the inauguration of President Choo Un- hee’s administration, the Ministry of Disaster and Safety was established as a department that supervised and prevented all disasters in Korea.

“Yes, we will actively give our support. Prime Minister!”

Minister Oh Soo-dong, who became the first minister after the establishment of the Ministry of Disaster and Safety, replied with a smile.
