"No, you don't. Li Qing's voice was also a little cold, he finally understood now that Qin Zhenyu was a well-deserved superior, no wonder this kind of person could climb so high and hold the power of life and death. Li Qing admired such a person, but the logic of acting without compromise was not liked.

The secretary lit the fire, Qin Zhenyu lit a cigar and took a puff gently, lifted his eyelids and glanced at Zhong Ruoxi, his face suddenly a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I forgot, you don't like it either." ”

Handing the cigar to the secretary again, Qin Zhenyu commanded in a low voice: "Extinguish." ”

"Why is he still here?" Qin Zhenyu stopped his gaze on Li Qing again, "I met him once, and you were still asleep at that time. Ruoxi, I don't like the way you handle it, I guess you probably don't care, but please don't bring him to me to bother me?"

Zhong Ruoxi stacked the two ** together, put her hands together on her thighs, blinked her beautiful eyes, and said meaningfully: "I brought someone here, naturally I have my reason." ”

"What's the use of him?" Qin Zhenyu sneered, "Can he kill a platoon or a company of Shillong?" Even if he can kill a division, it will be useless to the current situation, unless he can kill the entire Third Army." ”

"Qin Zhenyu, don't be embarrassed!" Zhong Ruoxi became angry directly, "Do you think I am willing to help you?" Remember, I am now the director of the Lingang Supervision Department, and I have nothing to do with your Longxi Army!"

Unexpectedly, Zhong Ruoxi was directly angry, so frightened that Qin Zhenyu was stunned for a while, and then waved his hand with a disgraced face: "You all go down." ”

The secretary and the guards behind him looked at each other, and left the branch meeting room without saying a word, leading the door.

"Ruoxi, why can't you suppress the fire again? It's not just the two of us here, don't you be the same as at home?" Qin Zhenyu was a little unhappy, "You lose your temper, it's very difficult for me to do it." ”

"It's you talking too much. Zhong Ruoxi sighed, "Do you think I'm here to play with you? My business in Longxi has been completed, if it weren't for the trouble you are in now, I would have gone back to Lingang directly." ”

"Okay, good, I was wrong. It's just that I've been upset for the past two days, don't you mind. Qin Zhenyu waved his hand again and again, and glanced at Li Qing lightly, "Then tell me, what does this kid have to do with me? Anyway, so far, I haven't found any value from him." ”

Jade finger knocked on the table, Zhong Ruoxi said lightly: "You know better than me that the problem in Longxi now is not a crisis in military strength, but politics. ”

"That's nature. Qin Zhenyu stretched out his hand and rubbed his temples, "Gu Scoop River negotiations, I have an unshirkable responsibility as the supreme commander. The biggest problem now is that our army is the instigator of this incident, and Shillong is the victim party, and international public opinion has all turned to them. In this way, the invasion of the Third Army became justified. ”

Qin Zhenyu sighed and leaned lightly on the sofa: "It's difficult for me as the commander-in-chief to do it, don't say that the Longxi Army will be a counteroffensive next, even if it is a legitimate defense, it will evolve into a continuous provocation against Xilong in international public opinion." Before meeting you, I spoke on the phone with the Minister, who described the incident as the most severe test in the history of diplomacy in two decades. The way it is handled will directly determine the political attitude of all countries in the world toward China in the next 10 years or so. Judging from the current situation, it is natural that the possibility of dealing with me personally in order to appease international sentiment cannot be ruled out. ”

Zhong Ruoxi bowed his head slightly: "Therefore, the next Shillong side will definitely take advantage of this opportunity to continue to expand the war." ”

"Not bad. Qin Zhenyu nodded, "This Guluohe negotiation was originally initiated by Xillong under the pressure of domestic anti-war sentiment, but now that such a mess has happened, many anti-war groups in Xillong have suddenly defected and become a staunch main battle faction. Therefore, at this moment, both internationally and domestically, it is of great significance for Shillong to continue to wage war and consolidate power, and they will definitely not let go of this opportunity. ”

Zhong Ruoxi continued: "Then the dilemma you are in now is whether to launch a counteroffensive or retreat in the face of the upcoming war. Counteroffensive, the international situation is critical. Withdraw, and the land will fall, and you will be a sinner through the ages. ”

"Three points into the wood, hit the nail on the head. Qin Zhenyu praised softly, "What I can do now is to hold on to the military department and try to spread the responsibility on them as much as possible." However, after all, I am the highest commander of the Longxi Military Region, and at this time, in the face of huge pressure at home and abroad, even the military department is unwilling to wade into this troubled water. The minister obviously wanted to see me break the jar, and then they appeared as saviors, stabilizing the whole situation. In other words, I feel more and more that the military department wants to use me to make people angry and be a victim. ”

"No one helped you?" Zhong Ruoxi asked meaningfully.

Glancing at Zhong Ruoxi deeply, Qin Zhenyu nodded: "Yes, he meant to let me leave." But the Longxi Army has been operating for so many years, and I can't give it up. Even if you give it up, where can you go?"

The corners of her lips turned up slightly, and Zhong Ruoxi said lightly: "Since you are in a dilemma, you might as well listen to my method." ”

"Tell me about it. Qin Zhenyu's eyes suddenly burst out with a fine light.

After pondering for a long time, Zhong Ruoxi spoke: "My method is actually very simple, don't you think that the current situation is similar to a few years ago?"

Qin Zhenyu stared at Zhong Ruoxi's delicate cheeks, and a touch of confusion slowly swelled up on his face: "Similarities?"

This was the same dilemma a few years ago, when the Supreme Government proposed a policy of peaceful foreign relations with a view to repairing diplomatic relations with the countries surrounding China. With Shillong, we're not sure if it's a one-and-done attack or a tired defense, and what do we do in the end?"

"You mean to say..."Qin Zhenyu's eyes widened, and he stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Qing, "Let him do it?"

"I'm not at ease with him alone. Zhong Ruoxi said, "I'll go with him." ”

Qin Zhenyu's face changed: "This is too risky, once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope, Hamai will definitely strengthen his vigilance." ”

Zhong Ruoxi spread her hands: "Besides, can you come up with a better solution?"

Li Qing looked at Qin Zhenyu blankly, then turned his head to look at Zhong Ruoxi, and the corners of his mouth twitched violently: "You don't want to... Assassinate the commander of the Third Army in Longxi, right?"

"Yes. Zhong Ruoxi nodded without hesitation.

"Crazy!" Li Qing stood up directly, "If Hamai dies, even a fool can guess that you did it!"

Zhong Ruoxi raised her head and stared at Li Qing, a smile on the corner of her mouth: "But the problem is that the Shillong side will not admit that their highest military commander was stabbed to death." They will only use the same pretext as last time to stabilize the situation under the guise of a violent death in the army. If the victim does not avenge his grievances and willingly swallows the bitter fruit, who else can you expect to restore the truth?"

Qin Zhenyu slowly clenched his fists: "As long as we can stop this war and delay it for a few years, this crisis can be resolved." ”

"How many years, what can you do if you kill the commander? If someone else does it, it won't be another battle. Li Qing glared angrily at the two people who were about to go mad, "Don't forget, compared with the sixth Longxi War, there is less than a year apart!"

"Of course I know, so this time we're not just going to break Shillong's neck, but we're going to have to break their tendons. Zhong Ruoxi said coldly, "I want to directly take out the central command post of the Third Army and kill most of their high-level commands." In this way, Shillong will not be able to regenerate the incident for at least a few years. ”

Li Qing gasped: "Zhong Ruoxi, your appetite is really not small. Such a task is simply going and not returning, you can ask for another master, anyway, I won't do it!"

"Li Qing!" Zhong Ruoxi also got up from the sofa, "I know how difficult this mission is, that's why I found you! And it's not just you, I also want your people! You should know that those people under me can't complete such a difficult task at all, only if you are willing to help me, can there be hope." ”

"Hehe, you're crazy. Li Qing sneered and lowered her head to look at Qin Zhenyu, "Don't tell me you agree with her plan?"

Qin Zhenyu frowned tightly and didn't say a word. His heart was entangled, if the woman in front of him was not his wife's sister, Qin Zhenyu would definitely immediately approve. But if Zhong Ruoxi also wants to participate in this operation, he has to consider the personal safety of the former.

But Qin Zhenyu's silence was also an acquiescence invisibly.

Li Qing took half a step back: "Zhong Ruoxi! You are the director of the Lingang Supervision Department, you are not a staff officer of the Longxi Army! You don't need to take care of the affairs here! Do you understand?"

Zhong Ruoxi stared at Li Qing, her face stiff: "Do you want to participate?"

"You're going to send yourself to death at will. Li Qing's eyebrows rose, and he raised his hand and pointed at Zhong Ruoxi's nose, "I won't go with you to die, let alone put my own brother's life into it!" ”

After that, Li Qing turned around and left, and Zhong Ruoxi suddenly snorted coldly when he was about to walk to the door: "Li Qing, you are too presumptuous!"

"Don't forget, it's not just me who asks you, you ask me. The jade hand was placed on the sofa, and Zhong Ruoxi stared at Li Qing's back tightly, "Only this mission, after completion, I will forgive all your crimes, even Gu Yue, everyone around you." And I'm willing to give you shelter for the rest of your life. ”

"If you don't agree, I'll put all of you on a wanted list and use all my connections to hunt you down. Zhong Ruoxi's jade hand slowly tightened, "I will also let you see what kind of hell the Lingang Li family will become!"
