In Chief Zero's office, there was suddenly an uninvited guest today. However, since Sun Luo often came out of epilepsy to see him, he didn't think it was a matter of being nervous about someone suddenly.

It's just that this person is not Sun Luo, but Li Houcai, the Minister of Defense of the Splendid Country.

Li Houcai's talent is indeed very thick, and he can be regarded as an honest official, and he is a comrade with firm beliefs. Even if this person was stubborn at some times, Chief Zero didn't see it, but this time he couldn't turn a blind eye, because Li Houcai was ready to shake the cornerstone of the cooperation between Jinxiuguo and Xingmao Group.

"I've said it before. If we take control of the traverse community, we can have more living space. At that time, our people will not be burdened with high housing prices because of high population density. We will also have access to more food supplies to address food security. Coupled with the fact that we have access to more raw materials, the business will be in a higher position in the manufacturing industry. ”

"I've talked to you about all of that. Although it is the life we yearn for, we cannot indulge our greed. Some things are not ours, and even if we use force, we are not necessarily their opponents. You should know how several aircraft carriers of the Hunter Organization sank. ”

"You're right." Li Houcai sat down, then poured himself a glass of water, poured it down, touched the water stains on the corner of his mouth and continued, "But what is the result of our restraining greed? It was the merciless betrayal of the allies. They did master the Crossing Barrier, but Wei Zhongxian's power reached out to us. You should already know that the people of Jinyiwei and Dongchang are looting our thousand-year-old capital, Jinxiu City. ”

Chief Zero glanced at Li Houcai, and his tone began to become unkind.

"Are you trying to say that the reason why Wei Zhongxian's minions were able to come here is because of the Xingmao Group?"

"Do you need to talk about that? Crossing the barrier is all in their hands. We don't delay manipulating the Crossing Stone, and we can't even send people into the Crossing Community. We are completely reactive. ”

"Really?" Chief Zero laughed coldly, if his tone was cold just now, he might have been thought by Li Houcai to be dissatisfied with the Star Cat Group, then the rhetorical question just now clearly did not believe him Li Houcai.

"I'm not going to lie to you?"

"Of course you don't lie to me. As long as I ask you questions, you will answer me 1510. Because you're not a person who is used to lying. You are not even considered a successful politician because of this. But I know that you are deliberately hiding from me. As long as I don't ask about something, you usually don't take the initiative to tell me. This is true even when it comes to important issues. For example, you asked Su Ke and the others to bring the hunted and killed Zhu Youzhen to the Splendid Kingdom. Nominally, it is to take refuge, but in fact, you want to bypass the Star Cat Group and negotiate directly with Zhu Youzhen, hoping to obtain corresponding benefits in Daming after helping him successfully restore the country. And the biggest problem with your plan is that you can't get around the Star Cat Group, so you are looking for me now just to get rid of this force. Am I not right? ”

Li Houcai was silent for a long time, and it was not until Chief Zero sighed that he slowly said, "For the sake of a better future for all people in this country, I think it's worth the risk." ”

"So that they can live in peace. I think it's better not to take risks. ”

Li Houcai's eyes lit up when he heard this. He already knew why he couldn't talk to Chief Zero. Although they are both thinking about the future of the country, the difference between the two people's concepts is too big. This distance has made all the friendships that belonged to the two of them come to naught.

"Since you say so, then I can't help it." After Li Houcai gave a military salute, he left slowly.

However, Chief Zero was not convinced that he had been convinced. He decided to talk to him again after quelling the large-scale looting in Fairview City.

He was just about to get up to convene the highest meeting of the military committee, but unexpectedly, Sun Luo suddenly appeared out of the wires.

"You? Why are you here again? ”

Sun Luo sat on the table and took out a national flag from his pocket. It's just that it is not the flag of the splendid country, but the flag of the soon-to-be-formed country.

"Don't worry. I wouldn't define this behavior as divisive. Everyone knows that you don't belong to this country in the first place. ”

Sun Luo nodded her head from afar, indicating that what she wanted to say was not about this aspect.

"And what do you want to say?"

"What I want to tell you is that as a country that raised our four brothers and sisters, the Splendid Country should enjoy more benefits from the Great Yue Country."

Chief Zero smiled, "Putting aside the normative factors, in terms of the agreement reached between our two sides, we have received very few substantive benefits." Far less than we thought. You can't be honest with me that there will be more in the future. ”

"There will be more in the future, this is also an objective law. After all, only when we develop, can we have more benefits to give back to the splendid country. But right now, there's a giving back program, would you like to hear about it? ”

"Let's talk about it." Chief Zero leaned back and asked in a comfortable manner, "What are you going to offer us now?" ”

"An army, an army of cold weapons all the time. It can be used to fight against the Jinyi Guards of the Ming Dynasty, and I know that your army is still being assembled. Due to the strategic location of Splendid City, the number of garrisons was small. I think that in order to continue to work together for a long time, we must deal with this crisis together. ”

Chief Zero laughed at one point. "It's a good sentence to deal with this crisis together. There is no crisis for you. I don't think you want to be infamous by public opinion. ”

Sun Luo had already guessed that this kind of cautious eye couldn't hide the Zero Codex at all, but he wasn't ready to hide anything, so he simply said neatly: "This deal is too big, and the benefits are greater, and the risks will naturally be greater." Anyway, we are also partners, and emotional factors aside, after the elimination of this crisis, we will have more things to compensate for. ”

"You're right." Chief Zero sighed and said, "Since we also want to profit from this crossing project, the corresponding risks should indeed be taken. Actually, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, otherwise there would definitely be a lot of troops around Splendid City. Hopefully there won't be a next time. ”

"Since you agreed, let your people look at this flag. The people who put him on his body were all soldiers of the Yue Kingdom, and they were allies, so they couldn't shoot at them because they were holding cold weapons. ”

Chief Zero waved his hand, signaling that he would convey the order, and Sun Luo could leave.

After Li Houcai returned to his office, he immediately fell into a long period of thought. If the people of the entire Splendid Country traveled back to ancient times, then they would definitely live a better life than they are now, at least housing prices would fall, at least energy would no longer be tight, and at least important mineral resources such as steel would no longer be dependent on imports.

Beautiful images filled his mind, but they were quickly shattered.

The person who broke it was one of the few people he admired the most. That person is subtle and fierce, down-to-earth and wise, if he becomes an ancient emperor, he must be a master of Zhongxing. But now he is sitting in the position of the number one in the country, but he hesitates and refuses to gamble for the people of the whole country, which makes Li Houcai very dissatisfied.

As a result, an idea gradually rose from the bottom of Li Houcai's heart, perhaps, he is more suitable to lead the people of the whole country on another broad road of rapid development.

So after a few phone calls, several of Li Houcai's cronies in the army quickly came to his office.

"Do you know why I called you?"

The outspoken Wang Rongchang said: "Of course I know that there was a large-scale riot in Jinxiu City. ”

"Riots? It wasn't just riots. That's an empire from the XVII century declaring war on us! The declaration of war and provocation of a feudal landlord class regime, can you let him just toss it around? ”

"Of course not!"

"But there are people who don't share your mind. Chief Zero does not want to solve the problem at its root. I think he may be concerned about the interests of cooperation with Xingcat Group. Then, we can only convince him with the greater good. At the same time, in order to ensure the smooth operation of the operation, I think there is no need for him to meddle in this matter for the time being. When the raw rice is cooked and matured, he will acquiesce to reality. ”

and obviously the deputy hall oh Li Houcai's words, and immediately understood that Li Houcai was preparing to mutiny. Unexpectedly, the coup d'état that occurred in the 17th century has not been completely quelled, and an even more serious coup d'état is about to take place in the splendid country of the 21st century.

Seeing that his henchmen were silent, Li Houcai was also a little embarrassed. After all, the country has been peaceful for more than 60 years, and although the middle and high-level have been constantly fighting among themselves, the soldiers do not like to be called for guns, so they must be careful in their choices.

But Li Houcai can't wait for their prudence, what if the result of prudence is that Yang Fengyin is violated? So he immediately added: "You should also know that now, the peace period that belongs to us is over. I'm going to change your mindset, they're intruders! ”

"I'll do it with you!" Before Li Houcai's words were finished, Wang Rongchang shouted and took a step forward and said loudly, "I have always believed in you, and I believe that you are a good person who will do everything for the people of the whole country." This is very rare among the top executives. So I decided that no matter what happens, I'll do it with you! ”

When the other new servers heard Wang Rongchang's words, they also shouted. Li Houcai's meaning is to master the crossing of the community, so as to prevent the invasion from the ancients, of course, that is also the way to invade the ancients. At that time, against cold weapons, military feats were not easy to get. Who wouldn't want to do such a good thing?

"Good!" Li Houcai was overjoyed and immediately began to assign tasks one by one.
