Chapter Seventy-Five: The Return of the Gods
On the forty-eighth floor of the hive, in the office of the head of the executive department, the old man who was ninety years old after the New Year, dressed in a bright red Tang suit, sat on a hard mahogany chair, and looked at the peach-eyed young man in a suit and leather shoes in front of him with blazing eyes.
"How did the Vice Chancellor get free time to visit this rotten old man!" said the head of the Executive Department in a deep voice.
"The minister can probably guess why I'm here. The vice principal smiled lightly, pulled over a chair, sat down without seeing anyone else, moved his buttocks, and said as if he was a little uncomfortable: "The minister is old, why do you still sit in these boxy hard chairs, isn't it a sore back and a herniated disc in your waist after sitting for a long time." ”
The old man in Tang costume made a cup of tea and pushed it in front of the vice principal: "It's because of old age, my blood and energy are insufficient, and I get sleepy as soon as I feel comfortable, so I change to a soft sofa, and I have to sleep for a while." ”
The vice principal was a little solemn when he heard this, and looked at the old man in Tang costume for a long time before he said leisurely: "Over the years, the minister has been in charge of the executive department for 30 years, and he has worked hard, maybe I should have come a long time ago." ”
The old man in Tang costume frowned slightly, maybe he had misunderstood the vice principal's intention before, or rather, the vice principal didn't come this time just for Pengcheng's mission, maybe he was still here to force the palace to seize power.
It should be, the executive department, as the sharp blade of the college to the outside world, will inevitably act sharply, unscrupulous, often cause some troubles that are difficult to solve, and are jointly complained by the picket department, the school engineering department, the medical department and other departments.
The school board has been unhappy with the style of the executive department for a long time, and has made many proposals in the past ten years to rectify the executive department, but he has been fooled by his 'policies and countermeasures'.
The executive officer of the executive department is uninhibited, and in front of other department members, he always has a faint sense of superiority, all because of his business in the past 30 years.
Others say that the head of the executive department protects his shortcomings, and indeed, he himself admits that he is very protective of his calves, but shouldn't he be? The members of the executive department do have 'privileges' and are the eldest brothers of all departments, but the casualty rate is also the highest, and the other seven or eight departments together do not have more casualties than the executive department.
When there is an emergency, which time is not the executive department rushing to the front, and which time is not the person from the executive department who dies the most? The school board wants to reorganize the executive department, abolish the 'privileges', and let the executive officers be honest and all students will be treated equally.
He is also a school manager, but he has been working with the school board, and he has not given the school board any 'opportunity' for more than ten years.
"Hmph, the school board has finally caught my pigtails, are they going to use the huge mistake of the executive department in the Pengcheng operation as an excuse to hold me accountable and force me to resign, so they can take over?" The old man in Tang costume snorted coldly: "Let the vice principal be a lobbyist, the school board has a lot of face? Could it be that they have made up twenty-three school directors?"
"I admit that a few decades ago they were still fearless fighters, with hot blood, and they could afford to hold knives and guns, but now? After decades of being a school director, they have never dealt with big things alone, so what kind of brains are not rusty? The executive department is all the hard work of Lao Tzu in the second half of his life, and he doesn't have a door for them, don't even think about it, don't let me retire if I don't die. has the ability to remove the identity of our school director and confine him for retirement. ”
The vice principal listened quietly and did not refute, and only after the old man in Tang costume finished scolding did he shrug his shoulders: "Don't look at me, the vice principal, who is restricted by the school board everywhere, but in fact, the school board has no right to force me to do what I don't want to do!"
"Then explain why you were imprisoned for five days after you stole the cow, and you should submit a 100,000-word review to the school board. The old man in Tang costume squinted and sneered.
The vice principal was a little embarrassed, but he had already stubbornly said: "I didn't write the review, it was copied and pasted by the Eye of Senluo, and I don't know anything about the content." And the school board will chase after me, I can't stalemate with a group of old men, I'm angry with them, who will help me run the academy!"
"Vice Principal Kong, everyone outside is guessing your full name, I don't need to guess, yours must be called Kong Yiji!" The old man in Tang costume snorted and laughed: "The matter of the scholar, can it be called a review?"
"You're going a little too far!" the vice principal's face darkened slightly: "Let's talk about whether it's good for others to attack each other." ”
"You should be glad that now is not the years of the Anti-Japanese War, and my anger has decreased a lot, old man, otherwise I will definitely beat you up!" said the old man in Tang costume coldly.
The vice principal raised his eyebrows, noncommittal, just waved his hand: "Forget it, forget it, don't talk nonsense with you old guy, let's get down to business!"
"I am here to ask the Minister to step down and be promoted to Honorary Director for Life, and I will take over the Executive Department. The vice principal said solemnly.
The old man in Tang costume sneered when he heard this: "The vice principal also said that he was not sent by the school board to seize power, so what are you asking for now? And didn't the vice principal think that I, an old man, was faint and had tinnitus?
"Honorary school board for life, without going through the third-level school council, the vice president has this power? It seems that this time the school board is bound to win the executive department, and the third-level school board of thirty people can be scraped together! The last time the third-level school board was made up was thirty-five years ago!" The old man in Tang costume gradually became cold: "The vice principal doesn't need to persuade me, my old bones won't live long." After Pengcheng's operation, I saw a lot clearly, the so-called floating names are all false, and you are free to choose between them. One is to dismiss me, and the other is to be in the executive department or the executive department. ”
The vice principal still smiled calmly, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then said leisurely: "Don't worry, minister, I'm a relatively strict person, and I won't do something hopeless at all, and listen to what I'm going to say next, it's not too late for the minister to do it." ”
"Before we get into that, let's give you an example. The minister knew that in front of the Wuzhang Yuan in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Sima Yi, the governor of the capital, learned that Zhuge Kongming had been sleeping all night, and he would bow down to all affairs, so he asserted that the end of Zhuge Pifu's energy was approaching. Sure enough, the sentence died before leaving the school, which made the hero cry for a long time, and it became a regret for many years. ”
"Although the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is not the official history, and it is far from the history of blood outside the official history, there is some truth in it. The vice principal spread his hands and said with a smile: "It's better to take an example, just talk about things, if Zhuge Kongming can relax a little and live a few more years, will the ending of the Three Kingdoms be a little different?"
The old man in Tang costume frowned slightly, and then sneered: "The vice principal thinks that I have worked too hard, and it is better to get by, and the handful of bones left behind can be used as firewood in the future." ”
"With such big words, the vice principal is a little too pediatric!" the old man in Tang costume shook his head with a smile.
"The academy does need the minister to remove the bones and burn them for firewood to burn the last of his life. The vice president nodded in a deep voice: "I don't know if the minister is willing, if he does, I will continue, one of the biggest secrets of this academy." If he does not, the Minister may remain the Minister of the Executive Department until the Minister runs out of gas or the College falls apart. ”
The old man in Tang costume frowned slightly, he heard the seriousness of the vice principal's words, he was not joking, now it may not be a matter of seizing power, but something related to the millennium foundation of the college, the stability of the republic, and even the survival of the people.
The old man in Tang costume thought for a moment, and then said, "Tell me, I'll listen!"
"The blue god has returned!"
The vice principal only said one word, and the old man in Tang costume stood up in shock in an instant, and glared at him deadly: "What did you say?"
"The blue god that only exists in legends has returned. The Vice Chancellor nodded.
The old man in Tang costume grabbed the teacup, and even crushed it directly, but he ignored the bleeding palm of his hand, and just said in a low voice: "Go on!"
"The minister still remembers the secret operation plan in the depths of Qinglong Mountain on the outskirts of Jian'an a few years ago, as well as the operation in Longji Town. The vice-principal spoke solemnly.
"Naturally, I remember, but both of these actions are listed as taboo, and only the white card permission can be consulted, and I don't know the details. The old man in Tang costume first nodded, and then shook his head.
"The combat operation of Qinglong Mountain is the first killing of the Blue God's return. Participating in the battle that day were the President, me, seven distinguished alumni, and five honorary trustees. Half an armored division of Jian'an, ninety-two tanks, one self-propelled artillery regiment, one hundred and thirty-two infantry fighting vehicles, one helicopter battle formation. ”
"The total number of combatants deployed that day was 5,742. ”
"What about the result!" the old man in Tang costume asked eagerly.
This may be the first powerful collision between the power of science and technology and the power of gods and demons, and he is eager to know the results of the battle, whether the power of science and technology over the years can captain the legendary gods.
The blue god, immortal and immortal, supreme being, once the master of heaven and earth.
"It's not in the right state, it hasn't completely returned, and it hasn't used enough force, so we haven't wiped it out!" the vice-principal smiled self-deprecatingly, "The result is that it retreated with minor injuries." Our headmaster was dying, and now he is still lying in the sterile barn, four honorary school directors were killed in battle, eighty-six tanks were destroyed, all helicopter battle formations were killed, and eighty percent of infantry fighting vehicles were destroyed. The martyrs of Jian'an were 3,992 people. ”
"This is the power of the blue god, and with a single move, the sky and the earth will fall apart. The vice principal's face was full of seriousness: "This is still that it has not fully awakened, if it completely returns, Nirvana will be invincible with a huge divine body like a mountain." ”
The old man in Tang costume was silent, it turned out that how many students had unknowingly walked on the verge of collapse in the Jian'an headquarters, so many people died in battle, the key is sacrifice, the cause of their death cannot be made public, and they can only find various excuses to perfunctory the past.
Only a few people know that there are groups of people who have sprinkled their blood in the depths of Qinglong Mountain, guarding the front line against the erosion of darkness. In a trance, he seemed to return to those times before the first year of the republic, and countless unknown martyrs came forward to follow him.
After a long time, the old man in Tang costume asked slowly: "What about the Dragon's Back operation, the one where the former Nine Execution Team was wiped out." ”
"That was after the Qinglong Mountain battle plan, it was the Longji Town operation, and at the beginning, the Si County Branch received the following report, and it was suspected that there were high-level unknown mixed-blood beast species wandering. Because the captain of the ninth team was in Si County at that time, she did not transfer a senior executive officer from the city or the headquarters, and she led the team to Longji Town to capture the unknown beast species. ”
"When that high-level unknown beast species appeared, I knew that it was too late, and the sixty-three students didn't have time to retreat at all, so they were pulled into the 'realm of the dead', which was a realm that the blood king couldn't break through. By the time it vanished without a trace, the realm was withdrawn, and the Eye of Senro re-monitored the area, and the entire army had been wiped out, and there was not a single corpse intact. The captain of the ninth team was even more devastated, and Valhalla could not be summoned. ”
"She's a good boy, my most proud student, and now I know that she's dying like this!" said the old man in Tang costume softly.
"I've heard of it, Ye Han Chiran, the four new stars of the Executive Department at that time, you trained them as the next minister, and you want one of them to take over your class. The vice principal nodded: "Except for the cowardly bag of the Ninth Team now, she is the most pleasing female classmate I see." ”
The old man in Tang costume lowered his eyebrows and was silent for a long time before he said slowly: "You won't tell me this for no reason, what do you want me to do!"
"This is a letter of appointment from the Principal that will allow you to be promoted to Honorary Board of Trustees for Life, and if you accept it, you will be able to go to sleep in the dormancy chamber tomorrow until a moment comes when you need to wake up, to burn your life and dedicate your bones. ”
"The future of the college needs you, not just an executive department. The vice principal slapped a graffiti manuscript paper on the table: "You are a combatant, and your combat effectiveness is by no means comparable to that of ordinary school directors and honorary school directors." The academy needs a high-level combat power like you, instead of spending the last of your life on dealing with the chores of the execution department, which is a waste!"
The old man in Tang costume didn't think much about it and nodded.
