Chapter 241: Late at night, military headquarters
Zhuo Jiang has always been busy, so busy that he has no time to rest.
Because he is the supreme commander of the country's military power, and he is now the only five-star general with the highest military rank in China.
General Zhuo, who is nearly seventy years old, has been fighting for the first half of his life, and he thought that he should be able to rest after peace, but who knows that he has never been able to leave the battlefield.
From domestic to international, from gunsmoke to competition, General Zhuo just hid the gun in his hand deep in his head.
Tired, he's really tired.
He only gets 5 hours of sleep a day, and then he's busy with all sorts of things. He eats very little, because eating too much will naturally produce physiological drowsiness.
For General Zhuo's food and drink, it is necessary to keep his brain awake at all times, and to ensure that he has sufficient physical strength, but it really makes the group of logistics squads who arranged his food and lodging very sad.
But the people below did not complain about General Zhuo's harsh requirements, because they knew that General Zhuo should have enjoyed his old age in peace, but he had to support the country hard......
Everyone was full of admiration for General Zhuo, and could only sigh that it was their own incompetence that made General Zhuo so tired.
And every time General Zhuo heard his subordinates mention it, he just smiled and sighed: "The state affairs are undecided, even if I die, my eyes will be open." ”
…… After returning to Kyoto from Mizuun City, General Zhuo was busy with state affairs. The arrangements of the military region and the measures of the national policy only left General Zhuo for half a month, and there was a thick backlog of documents waiting for him on his desk.
It was nearly 11 o'clock in the evening that General Zhuo returned from the presidential palace to his residence at the headquarters of the military region, and spent the whole day discussing with President Huo the current international situation and the future direction of domestic development.
The biggest problem facing Huaxia now is the energy problem.
Due to the late start of Huaxia, it has obviously lagged behind some countries in the development of science and technology. For example, Oceania, their technology has always been the top in the world, and they have fiercely suppressed Huaxia.
If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools.
Although everyone is reluctant to mention it, there is a fact that has to be admitted. As long as there is a division of regions, competition is inevitable and conflicts are sooner or later.
Huaxia has always adhered to the golden mean, and has not thought of competing for global hegemony. But if you keep falling behind, it will inevitably attract the peep of the villain.
Some time ago, there was a lot of shock in the world because of a piece of news, that is, the alliance between the Feng Group and Jingxiguo. And the first project they collaborated on was the Space Energy Program.
Since then, with the support of the huge financial and human resources of the Feng Group, the energy technology has been improved at full speed, and only General Zhuo and President Huo have been swollen on the thigh.
This Feng Group is within the country, but it allows Jingxi to cross the border to pick fruits.
The Jingxi Kingdom was on the border of the Huaxia Kingdom, and General Zhuo felt not only regret but also a hidden threat.
Exhausted, General Zhuo pushed open the door of his residence.
Although he is the highest military commander in the country, General Zhuo's residence is simple and simple beyond anyone's imagination.
An old desk, a glass coffee table, and two rattan chairs make up a small living room, and the bedroom contains only a bookshelf full of books and a wooden bed with only a stack of military quilts.
There was a soft snap, and the fluorescent lights in the living room lit up.
General Zhuo paused when he looked up.
In front of him, there was a young boy sitting leisurely on the rattan chair next to the coffee table.
How did you get in?!
The first reaction in General Zhuo's mind was to call out to the guards, but when he saw the young man's face clearly, he was stunned. Just two seconds later, General Zhuo walked into the room and turned around to close the door, locking it as he had never done before.
It was not new for General Zhuo to encounter unexpected visitors in his life, and after he had heard the detailed report of his subordinates to Shuiyun City, he was not overly surprised by Li Jie's sudden arrival at this time.
It's just that General Zhuo felt a little stunned, in his headquarters of the military region, which is definitely the most heavily guarded in the country, Li Jie can come and not disturb anyone.
Is there any place in the world that can stop him?
At this moment, Li Jie is wearing a simple brown jacket, his hair has become shorter, and he is only a short inch long, and he looks extremely energetic.
General Zhuo looked at Li Jie silently with a smile on his face, but found that he had never shown a smile all along.
After sitting opposite Li Jie, General Zhuo pointed his finger on the table and looked up and said, "When did you come?" ”
Li Jie looked at him and said bluntly: "It's been a while, I'll go back first if you don't come back...... I just came here and sat for half an hour. ”
Li Jie's words were relaxed, but General Zhuo's heart suddenly felt like a river and a sea.
From Li Jie's words, it seems that this military region headquarters is like a park, and he can come and go, not to mention the layers of armed guards, just saying that Kyoto is thousands of miles away from Shuiyun City......
Of course, General Zhuo didn't think to blame his own guards, he understood that in front of people like Li Jie, no matter how many guards were useless.
After nodding, General Zhuo suddenly smiled and said, "I know you like to smoke, but unfortunately I quit a long time ago, so I didn't." Let me know next time you come back, and I'll have some good cigarettes to entertain you. ”
Li Jie smiled faintly: "General Zhuo, I won't come often." I'd like to discuss something with you. ”
General Zhuo stared at the other party intently, stretched out his hand and asked, "If you have anything to say, just say it directly, there are only me and you here." ”
I heard Li Jie say slowly: "I'm not afraid to tell you bluntly, I'm not an ambitious person, I just want to live my ordinary life." And I'm very satisfied with my life now and don't want to change a bit......"
General Zhuo nodded approvingly: "Few young people nowadays have this mentality like yours. I may not believe it if I say this to another person, but I have heard reports from my subordinates and have been in direct contact with you before, and I can see that you are a person who is happy to be plain. ”
But Li Jie shook his head and sighed: "It's a pity that I now find that this mentality is actually a mistake." If you are on a boat, even if you want to see the scenery in place, you can't stop the current pushing you away. ”
General Zhuo pondered deeply about the meaning of Li Jie's words, frowned and asked, "Have you been in any trouble lately?" Supposedly, according to your ability, what trouble can't be solved? ”
Li Jie sighed deeply: "There is trouble, but you can't help if you say it." He looked up at the other party and said, "I need to rely on the power of the national level now." ”
General Zhuo's eyes lit up, his heart was happy, and he hurriedly said: "You are a citizen of Huaxia Kingdom, and Huaxia Kingdom will always be your protection." No matter who or what it is, Huaxia Kingdom will stand in front of you. ”
Li Jie smiled: "I was born in China, and I shed the blood of Chinese people...... It's just that I don't know if Huaxia Kingdom has anything I need. ”
This sentence was taught by Zhang Liang to Li Jie.
Zhang Liang told Li Jie: When trading with the superior, you must not be completely groveling or domineering, the best way is to reveal a message to the other party, and you are choosing.
Only when the superior needs you and finds that you are choosing, will they throw away all their interests in order to fight for your position.
Just as Zhang Liang expected, when Li Jie showed his hesitant attitude, General Zhuo's brows were really deeply pinched.
At this time, Li Jie smiled, and took out a piece of paper full of words from his pocket with preparation.
"I stumbled across a document on your desk about the energy plan. I brought this with me when I just went back, so you might be able to use it. ”
General Zhuo was stunned, and couldn't help but get up and reach out to get it.
Unexpectedly, Li Jie's arm waved, and the paper just happened to avoid General Zhuo's calloused palm.
After glaring at the smiling Li Jie, General Zhuo withdrew his hand and sat back in his seat silently.
After a long time, General Zhuo suddenly got up and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to see where the top secret of the Huaxia Kingdom is." ”
