Instead, it captured the entire Busan-based two-tier rebel organization in one fell swoop.
In short, Jiang Zhihuan's team, through planting moles and buying off traitors, disguising themselves as Ming Land rebels and Takamanohara arms dealers, had already traded multiple times with the two-tier rebels and figured out their hiding places and members. They just hadn't yet identified who within GE was colluding with the rebels.
Therefore, his original plan was to stir the snake by hitting the grass, not using GE's main force, but by using Li Pan's BRW experimental unit to strike the rebel stronghold, hitting the two-tier rebels' living forces while also testing to see if they could lure out the mole inside GE who was colluding with the rebels.
After flushing out the traitor, the intelligence group would take over, whether it was arresting them or using the evidence as leverage to coerce them for greater benefits was no longer a concern of Li Pan, an outsider.
