Whilst the government debated the sentiment of conflict with Dankuk, preparations were made prior to the commencing of hostilities through Operation Falcon. Reservists had been called in since the artillery strike as General Prestegard assumed that through the attack the possibility of Kazulia and Dankuk going to war was evident. Coordinated alongside Operation Falcon, at 0410 hours the attack message: Climb Mount Haedong was transmitted commencing Operation Ghost Train. Some 200,000 troops which had been mustered due to the call up of reservists were plunged across the border, spearheaded by a combined armoured and mechanised assault. Operation Ghost Train according to statement from Defence Command commenced a major escalation in the conflict aimed at removing the regime within Dankuk. According to statements from the Department of Defence, Operation Ghost Train was a simultaneous, surprise blitz of the Dankukin border. Signals intelligence brigades flooded Dankukin radio intercepting technologies with apparently false claims that planned Kazulian invasion could come through amphibious landings in the north and an airborne insertion to the north-east pits of the peninsula state. Satellite imagery had confirmed that troop movements had suggested that the falsified intelligence had been taken literally by Dankukin commanders and thus large numbers of troops originally positioned at the border were reorganised and move to prepare for whether they believe the Kazulian invasions would occur.
As Operation Falcon entered its initial hours, the 1st Kombinertstyrkekorps of the Kazulian Army crossed over the Dankukin Border and imagine locked horns with the remaining Dankukin troops stationed at the border. With speed in mind, Kazulian armoured and mechanised brigades hooked right and swung into western Dankukin border provinces. Whilst the total strength of the Kazulian Army had not been mustered even though the call to arms was made prior to the commencing of operations, the Home Guard supported the Army's initial advance. With air superiority within the lands of the Air-Force, an intense period of bombing occurred prior to the invasion. According to officials from Joint Forces Command, the airstrikes conducted by the Air-Force were mainly concentrated on preventing retreating divisions from reaching the rear units as apart of Phase 3 of Operation Falcon. General Prestegard told officials from the media that he intends on being on the battlefield commanding the invasion from the ground as he called the invasion a mission of vengeance for Kazulian people after considerable provocation by the Dankukin regime.
According to reports from Joint Forces Command, the Kazulian Armed Forces launched a simultaneous assault front three positions. An amphibious invasion launched by the 10th Mechanised Infantry Division, the 1st Amphibious Infantry Brigade and the 2nd Amphibious Infantry Brigade on the western coastline of the province of Eljang. Whilst the amphibious invasion was launched, an airborne assault had been launched by the five airborne brigades. Clashes in the cities of Dangmyo and Port Rhynach are currently on-going with many defence analysts confirming that these clashes will end in an unconditional defeat to the Imperial Dankukin Army in the two cities, as the Royal Kazulian Air-Force are conducting airstrikes on sorties throughout the country as they exercise their reign in air superiority. It is expected that these assaults are to be reinforced by reservists to maintain the momentum of the invasion. General Prestegard stated that with the use of Auftragstaktik stated that the invasion will follow the principles of the doctrine, including a great emphasis on speed.
Similar to Operation Soul Rebel from the War for the Emperor's Protection, Operation Silent Eagle is aimed at securing the southern country side of Dankuk. According to the Joint Forces Command, the Kazulian Army was currently pushing around 10 divisions into the nation and according to reports, clashes are still ongoing. It was stated by officials from Defence Command that once the Kazulian Army secured the northern country side, reinforcements will be sent as the 200,000 reserves of the Kazulian Army prepare for mass mobilisation. The current efforts of the Kazulian Army will be reinforced by the Royal Kazulian Air Force who are expected to conduct a series of combined arms roles, most important ensuring the air superiority achieved is kept and conducting close-air-support missions.
