THIRTEEN
Chief of Staff Council Eiji Nobitsu is returning from the office of the Minister of Defense. Under the directions from the Prime Minister through the Cabinet- level Minister of Defense, Chief Staff Eiji is preparing the JDSF for three main operations. The first is to pinpoint the proximity the creatures may reappear from. The second is to evacuate the populace within a 100 mile radius. And the third is to position artillery around the radius of the re-emergence. Based on Intel from the JASDF, the creatures are on a course towards the Izu Islands. And judging by their trajectory, when they return, Tokyo will be in its main path. Orders are made to evacuate all the citizens from Tokyo as well as the Izu Islands effective immediately. The JSDF will strategically position their Type-10 tanks, M270 MLRS an armored rocket launcher, and Mitsu F-2 around Tokyo. The Mitsu F-2s will provide aerial assaults while the Type-10 tanks ground assault. They will be positioned in the front lines. The M270 MLRS (Multiple Launcher Rocket System) will stay 15 miles behind the tanks due to their mobility but will be the most destructive arsenal. Ground troops consisting of jeeps and armored vehicles will remain with and behind the M270s.
