If they were just sending Bai Zhizhan to the airport, a random driver would have sufficed.
It was not necessary to specifically summon Zheng Jiangming, a very busy man and a prominent figure at the Navy headquarter.
Last month, before the attack on Sai Island, Zheng Jiangming issued a warning. He suggested that the Newland Federation might have already sent substantial forces to defend Sai Island, and recommended that the Navy headquarter revise the battle plan. He advocated for an immediate reinforcement to the frontline, such as deploying a Marine Division, originally held as a reserve team, in advance.
At that moment, there was indeed a Marine Division on standby in the Volcanic Islands.
However, they were not meant to serve only as a reserve team, but also prepared to attack Guan Island subsequent to the occupation of Sai Island.
When the plan was formulated, no one contemplated deploying a Marine Division to occupy Sai Island.
