Chapter 376: Chrono Coup D'état No. 16
When Zhuge Liang arrived at the airport, he happened to see the head of Zero leaving the Jinxiu International Airport under strict protection. None of the reporters behind him had a happy expression, apparently the interview request was not met.
It's just that the person who guarded him leaving looked so weird in Zhuge Liang's eyes. In particular, a few of the security guards he had seen before were desperately squeezing their eyes at him. Although Zhuge Liang didn't know what they meant, a sense of foreboding had already surged into his heart.
"It's good to see you."
Shi Qiang's voice suddenly came from behind Zhuge Liang, so frightened that she hurriedly looked behind her, and almost killed him in seconds. However, after seeing Shi Qiang's gloomy face, he immediately thought of the uneasiness that appeared in his heart just now.
"Something happened, right?"
Zhuge Liang's question made a smile immediately appear on Shi Qiang's sad face.
"It's easy to talk to smart people." But after saying this, Shi Qiang fell back into sorrow.
"What the hell happened to Chief Zero?"
"Don't you see it yet? He's going to be placed under house arrest. ”
Zhuge Liang had already vaguely guessed it in his heart, but after confirming it from Shi Qiang's mouth, he was still speechless by a burst of shock.
After a while, he slowly asked, "Who did it?" ”
"Li Houcai."
"It's him! Isn't he a confidant of Chief Zero? ”
"They are very close friends, but they have their own beliefs." After a pause, Shi Qiang continued to explain, "Li Houcai wants to get what you have. He wants to take control of the Crossing Community. Unify every world with the army in his hands. Since then, the country has endless living space and mineral resources. But Chief Zero disagreed with him. So he sent his henchman Wang Rongchang to Jinxiu City in advance and put Chief Zero under house arrest in the name of protecting the chief. Originally, I wanted to come and report to the chief on the recent intelligence work. I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, not long after I arrived here, I saw him gesturing to me and telling me to leave quickly. As soon as I looked at the form, I knew what was going on. ”
Zhuge Liang sighed. What Li Houcai wanted to do by crossing the stone was exactly what the lords wanted to do. It's just that if you let others do it, those childlike people will definitely not agree. And even more seriously, the crossing stone is not a clean stone. The more people get out of it, the more they will be manipulated by it.
Once you become a slave who crosses the stone, you will be blinded by greed. As for the lofty ideals, they will be thrown out of the clouds at that time. Perhaps only those who think like children can avoid being eroded by the crossing stone as much as possible. Therefore, the cat will be relieved and boldly leave the crossing stone on the earth. Or maybe the cat was able to navigate the Crossing Stone precisely because he was also a child-like thinking being.
"Li Houcai will not succeed. No matter how noble his ideals are, he will be swallowed up by the so-called sense of accomplishment after the deed is accomplished. What's more, there are more unknown trials lurking in the traversal community. There are some things that are dangerous and not even clear to us. ”
Shi Qiang swallowed. Perhaps he was also dissatisfied with Chief Zero's policies, but after hearing Zhuge Liang's description, he began to wonder if Chief Zero's decision was really so conservative. For a leader who dares to deal with unknown forces, the word conservative seems to have nothing to do with him.
So, is his seeming conservatism just an assessment of the objective situation? Well, he's really a big-picture person. That's why he is the leader of the country, and Li Houcai is at most said to be his confidant.
"I see. But what do we have to do next? ”
"Then you need to ask? Let Li Houcai's men and horses fight. All we need to do is rescue Chief Zero. ”
Shi Qiang asked hesitantly, "What if Li Houcai orders his men to shoot at your people?" ”
"I'm not worried about that." Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Chief Zero has just given an order. Li Houcai didn't have the ability to openly ignore the orders of Chief Zero. Otherwise, he would not have put Chief Zero under house arrest, but would have killed him directly. He certainly won't let anyone know that he's got a coup d'état now. Otherwise, not to mention that those loyal to Chief Zero would not let him go, and he himself did not want to have another voice at this juncture to distract him from his plans to occupy the Crossing Community. As for the Dayue ** team that only uses cold weapons, it is like a chicken and a dog to him, and he doesn't have to risk revealing his plans to clean it up in advance. If my guess is right, he should be trying to occupy the crossing community and force the Dayue ** team to surrender. ”
"Then we'll go rescue Chief Zero first."
Of course, Li Houcai will not pay attention to the actions of small people like Zhuge Liang and Shi Qiang. What he is more concerned about now is the attitude of other bigwigs in Splendid China towards his coup d'état. He knew that although this operation was secret to the outside world, the ears and noses of those bigwigs were very sensitive, and this matter started in public. Once they can't get in touch with Chief Zero, they'll definitely want to attack themselves.
Because what he's doing now, maybe someone else wants to do it too. Even if they didn't want to do it, they would be thinking about the seat vacated by Chief Zero. And quelling the rebellion is the best reason for them to move. It is difficult to say whether they really came to assess themselves as rebels after they moved, or whether they took the opportunity to take control of the organs of state power.
However, there is no indication that those bigwigs have any tendency to seek opportunities to make trouble on their own, and the only bigwig who contacted him after the outbreak of the incident just asked if Chief Zero was okay?
For the leader of Zero, Li Houcai has always regarded him as a spiritual mentor and friend. Although they don't have many opportunities to communicate. But the ideas that were once so similar made it easy for them to come together.
The layers of friendship accumulated since then make the current Li Houcai definitely not easily kill the leader of Zero. In fact, deep down, he still didn't believe that there would be any obvious mistakes in Chief Zero's choice. In doing so, he also left a way back in the sense of the country.
If his own choice is wrong, then there is still Chief Zero to redeem.
Of course, he was convinced that he couldn't be wrong, just in case. In fact, he is more like the effect he gets, and he can use his actions to prove to Leader Zero how wise his choice is. He will use his success to fully prove his strength in front of the old-timers.
Yes, he will.
"Command. The Sixty-seventh Army swooped down at full speed to the location of the crossing barrier. Be sure to take the crossing community occupied by the Ming army in a short time. The 66th Army entered the Liming District and coordinated with the Dayue ** Brigade to eliminate the Ming Dynasty Jinyi Guards on the streets. ”
After Li Houcai gave the order, he took out a note from his pocket and handed it to the herald, instructing: "You have to run on two legs, and give this note to Luo Rongan, the commander of the 66th Army." ”
"Understood."
What Li Houcai wrote on that note coincided with what Ah Hong and Zhuge Liang had guessed.
"After taking control of the crossing community, force down the Dayue ** team. If you don't comply, you will be killed. ”
A moment later, in the modern city made of steel and concrete, the gunfire of his relatives rang out again. Since the last invasion of the Japanese invaders, the country has not suffered a serious foreign invasion for nearly seventy years.
It's just that under the cover of this gunfire, the offensive of another group of people cannot be ignored.
Since the reborn have mastered the method of entering and exiting Universe One, many of their belongings have also been placed in the private universe. And the war horses and all kinds of cold weapons that they used to be so familiar with are also on the list. After all, they have lived in the 21st century for a long time, and it is impossible for them to walk on the street with those weapons.
Since the four lords are willing to share a personal space with them, there is no reason not to use it. Unless there are some people with different intentions, they will worry that what they put inside will reveal their own schemes.
But for the vast majority of generals, how long that heart is purely a waste of time. Anyway, most of them are still very satisfied with their current lives.
At least that's what Wang Yanzhang and Zhao Yun think. As they instigated their mounts to gallop down the road, it seemed that the long-lost heroic spirit of taking the head of the general in the army returned to them.
The brocade guards only saw two war horses galloping towards them, and immediately the two generals each held a spear, dancing like a dragon out of the water, and more than a dozen people were killed in an instant. Their original plan to rush back through the community seemed to be going to come to naught with the two generals.
Realizing that there was no point in resisting, the remaining Jinyi guards dropped the embroidered spring knife in their hands and surrendered to the two on their knees. But at this moment, a burst of gunfire came from behind them, and the bullets fired from the submachine gun quickly ended their lives.
Wang Yanzhang was furious, and it was a big sin to kill the soldiers without authorization. He was about to ask for an explanation from the rushing Jinxiu ** team, but was squeezed to the side of the road by the rumbling armored personnel carriers.
After the leading vehicle stopped, a lieutenant general came out of it, saluted Zhao Yun and Wang Yanzhang, and said, "Two generals, we were ordered to fight through the community, and this place will be handed over to you." ”
Hearing that the general trusted him so much and handed over the remnants of his hometown to take care of himself, Wang Yanzhang's dissatisfaction suddenly disappeared.
"Don't worry! I'm going to poke them all into honeycomb coals. ”
The lieutenant general gave a military salute and left.
What the two of them didn't know was that it was Li Houcai's important confidant, Wang Rongchang, commander of the 67th Army. Of course, what they wouldn't know was that the next time they saw Wang Rongchang, that person would have a few bones left.
