216 A big game of chess
"Old man, what's the situation now. ”
Zheng Fang rushed directly from the airport to the military headquarters, and Xiong Tiankuo was waiting for him.
"Sit down first, I've already arranged it, you leave in three hours, now, I'll tell you the specific situation. ”
Xiong Tiankuo said solemnly.
Zheng Fang knew that the situation should be very bad, otherwise Xiong Tiankuo would not have arranged it so tightly.
"You know the Eastern Islands. ”
Xiong Tiankuo got up from his chair and pointed to a small dot in the sea area on the map.
"I understand that in those places there there was an intermittent battle for seven months. ”
Zheng Fang knew that the small dots that Xiong Tiankuo was referring to were not small.
It doesn't look big on the map, but it is compared with the whole country, and Zheng Fang knows that it is an important archipelago in the eastern sea.
This archipelago is rich in resources and has a good geographical location, which is a rare deep-water harbor.
If a naval base is built in this place, it will be an important base for the zombie navy to approach the ocean.
When there was a war before, Zheng Fang fought with the islanders on that archipelago a lot.
"You know the importance there, it was originally a disputed area between our two countries, and it was our soldiers who fought it back!"
"After your last mission, the engineering unit we went to build on the island was attacked, and we went to deal with it. ”
"I found out that it was the people of the island who did not give up and were fighting with us for control of the island. ”
"During this time, Bu Tianxing has been fighting against the island troops on the archipelago, but the losses are very large, and it has not been very effective. ”
"You're familiar with the situation over there, and it's most appropriate for you to be in charge of this battle for the island. ”
Xiong Tiankuo briefly explained the situation.
"The terrain there is too complicated, and it is difficult to deploy operations on maps alone. ”
"The island country should have sent a commander who participated in the last battle to seize the island, and Bu Tianxing was not familiar with the situation there and suffered a loss. ”
Zheng Fang frowned.
"This time, I should be allowed to go, why do you give way to Tianxing?"
Zheng Fang was a little puzzled.
He had combat experience there, and he had a remarkable record in the last battle to seize the island, and he was the best choice for the command of this campaign.
"It's complicated. ”
Hearing Zheng Fang's words, Xiong Tiankuo's brows furrowed even deeper.
"The candidate submitted by the military department is you, and this matter is a certainty, after all, it is difficult for any department to interfere in the matter of selecting generals. ”
"But this time, for some reason, there were people in several departments who jumped out to oppose it, because there were too many people, and we had to change people in the end. ”
Xiong Tiankuo said in a deep voice.
Zheng Fang knew that in order to make the powerful military department give in, there would definitely be many bigwigs with real power to speak, otherwise Xiong Tiankuo would not be so easy to mess with.
"I originally thought that they wanted to suppress your prestige, after all, you are still young, and you are already a general of Zhenguo, and there are many people who are very wary of you and think that you will get in their way. ”
Xiong Tiankuo's words are not salty or light, but the amount of information contained in them is very large.
Zheng Fang's steady progress did block the way of many people, especially the military department's own people.
There are many veterans staring at the name of General Zheng Fangzhenguo, and more importantly, there are many old-school forces, staring at Xiong Tiankuo's position, they originally wanted to wait for Xiong Tiankuo to retire, but now Zheng Fang has an accident, which makes these people vigilant.
In their opinion, Zheng Fang is the strongest contender for this position.
In the midst of a power struggle, it is natural to do everything possible to suppress competitors.
What Xiong Tiankuo said Zheng Fang knew that when he was emerging from the limelight, there were many people who suppressed him, but one was that Xiong Tiankuo was strong, and the other was that Zheng Fang's outstanding achievements were there, and it was not so easy to pick thorns.
"It's not that simple, when you go to the magic capital, I know that someone is playing a big game of chess. ”
Xiong Tiankuo's expression became more serious.
"Things in the Demon Capital are really abnormal, it stands to reason that it is impossible for the capital not to notice the abnormality of the Demon Capital, and it is impossible for the Jiuxiao Gate of the Demon Capital to develop so huge, and someone in the capital must suppress this matter. ”
Zheng Fang knew that Huaguo's tolerance for this kind of organization was not high, and Xiang Jiuxiaomen's kind of capital should have been dealt with a long time ago.
"Indeed, before you turned over the affairs of the Demon Capital, the entire affairs of the Demon Capital were suppressed, and no one mentioned it. ”
"Can do such a thing, this person, cover the sky with one hand!"
Xiong Tiankuo knows that there are not many such people in China.
"With the small incident of Jiuxiaomen, the various departments in the capital were in turmoil and were faintly divided into two factions. ”
"The people of the faction are the ones who decided to help you after you proposed a joint operation, and some of them suppressed this matter and let the affairs of the demon capital develop. ”
"Now it seems that they want to use the Nine Heavens Gate to get rid of you, but they look down on you too much, I still know what you are capable of. ”
Xiong Tiankuo suddenly smiled boldly.
"You kid turned the demon capital upside down, so that those people couldn't suppress it if they wanted to, and then they took joint action to wipe out the demon capital Jiuxiaomen and related forces!"
"Beautiful! Really beautiful! These people pressed for a long time, but they didn't expect to end up burning on themselves. ”
"The two ledgers you got from the Demon Capital are not simple, although there are only high-level people in the Demon Capital on them, but the people who supervise them traced down and found that those people are closely related to the gang in the capital. ”
Xiong Tiankuo thought of those people who were against him, because of this matter, he felt a lot more comfortable.
"That's the end of it. ”
Zheng Fang knew it wasn't that simple.
"Indeed, in order to protect themselves, all their minions in the Demon Capital have been abandoned. ”
"But this incident reveals a little bit. ”
Xiong Tiankuo suddenly became solemn.
"Their strength is much greater than I imagined, and the people who want to suppress the Demon Capital are involved in various departments, and their positions are not low. ”
"Although I can't find a connection between these people yet, there is definitely something behind it. ”
"The national war has just ended, and there have been all kinds of twists and turns in the capital, and the peace has not been peaceful in the past two years. ”
Xiong Tiankuo has a lot of ups and downs in the sea, and knows how the undercurrent under the calm is stirring.
Zheng Fang didn't ask much about this matter.
Although he is a general of Zhenguo, as a powerful figure leading the troops, it is not a good thing that he was involved in the power struggle early.
Xiong Tiankuo will deal with the affairs of the capital, and how this matter will ferment after now can only wait and see.
What is now in front of Zheng Fang is the battle for the Eastern Islands, and the island countries dare to fight for it, and they definitely have a backhand, and this matter will not be simple.
When Zheng Fang came out of Xiong Tiankuo's office, it was already time to leave.
From the airport in the capital to the coast, take the navy frigate straight to the eastern islands, and finally take advantage of the night to do a helicopter landing on the island.
Judging by the procedures for landing on the island, the battle was indeed critical, and the helicopters could only land on the island at night, indicating that the enemy's anti-aircraft fire had covered the island.
In the night, Bu Tianxing and several officers here were already waiting for Zheng Fang.
