Early the next morning, Du Dezhong began to suspect that he was a crow's mouth. Last night, I told Li Yongzhong that this year was colder than usual, but just after breakfast, the sparse snowflakes fell down. This is the first snow of the year in Licheng, and many people are cheering after seeing it, only Du Dezhong remembered the bleak scene caused by the heavy snow last year, and hurriedly called Li Yongzhong and others to the east of the city to check the construction of flood control facilities in various places.

After experiencing two tragic flood disasters, Du Dezhong took over the post of secretary of Li Cheng and was ruthless in dealing with the local flood disasters. Under his strict requirements, the drainage and diversion works, the new gates and reservoirs were completed in good quality and quantity. Du Dezhong shook hands with them and thanked them, and then returned to the city with confidence.

When he arrived at the office, Li Yongzhong handed over his mobile phone. On the recommended news headlines, a brief message immediately attracted Du Dezhong's attention. The message was: "The crisis on the Red Island is intensifying, and the war is on the verge of breaking out."

Du Dezhong nodded and immediately dialed Cheng Liping's phone number. There was a reminder that the other party was on the phone on the phone, and Du Dezhong waited for fifteen minutes to dial it, but he was still on the phone. Du Dezhong frowned and picked up Li Yongzhong's mobile phone and dialed it again, but the result was still the same.

Half an hour later, Cheng Liping's call came back. As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked with a smile: "Secretary Du, what are your instructions?" ”

Du Dezhong said: "What is your identity now, where do I dare to give you instructions." By the way, I did it for you last time. ”

Cheng Liping was silent for a moment and said, "Thank you." ”

Du Dezhong said: "You're welcome, Orange used to be my subordinate, and I have always wanted to recognize this little girl." ”

Cheng Liping knew that Du Dezhong was deliberately showing favor, but he was really grateful for Du Dezhong's efforts to do so, after all, building a statue for the little-known Tian Zicheng was not an easy thing to get the collective team to pass. Du Dezhong did not take credit for himself, but as soon as the conversation changed, he immediately turned to Red Island.

"You're going to reclaim Red Island, aren't you?"

Cheng Liping denied it without hesitation: "No, it's not time for us to intervene." ”

Du Dezhong said: "Then what's the current crisis?" ”

Cheng Liping said: "Dog eats dog, a mouthful of hair." ”

Du Dezhong knew that the matter of Hongdao was very important to Cheng Liping and others, and it was easy for him to confide in any true information, so he no longer humiliated himself and asked cheekily. After casually chatting about the agricultural support fund, Du Dezhong consciously hung up the phone.

It is snowing in Laicheng, but the sun is shining in Hong Kong. A few days ago, Liu Weiguo, Ding Er, Hu Hao and others had already begun to infiltrate the Hongdao side. Their first stop was Vietnam, after all, the easiest way to get into Red Island from Vietnam. However, he didn't lie to Du Dezhong, this time the two warring parties on Hongdao were Nalan Wan'er and Xu Junlin, and they had nothing to do with them.

Cheng Liping doesn't plan to participate either, as long as they don't hurt the civilians on Red Island and their partners hidden in the underground bunker, they might as well watch this scene with peace of mind. The more spectators you have, the more you can judge the hole cards of each opponent, and the easier it will be to solve all the problems once and for all in the future.

Xu Junlin naturally didn't want to turn against Nalan Wan'er, but as soon as the Tian family and the Zhang family fell, his support was basically cut off. Only by occupying Hongdao and becoming the actual controller of Hongdao can he have the capital to negotiate terms with the mainland or Hong Kong. It is not so important whether he acknowledges his identity and status, but what is important is that others can no longer talk to him about the mistakes he has committed in the past.

In peacetime, recruiting troops is actually a particularly difficult thing. Xu Junlin used up almost all his belongings, coupled with the great assistance of Tang Jingtian of Zhongyi Hall, to recruit hundreds of so-called mercenaries. Most of these mercenaries are low-level gangsters, who come to work hard for a generous remuneration, and what they say is earth-shattering, and they really play with their lives, one by one.

Liu Weiguo has a classic saying: A real bandit, you can't buy it for any amount of money. If you don't believe it, just look at Cheng Hongbin and Cai Zhiquan to understand. People don't even take their lives seriously, do they still care about your money?

Xu Junlin also knew that those people were useless, and even if they were all bandits who didn't want to die, it would be useless, because the military facilities on Red Island were gradually complete, and no matter how many people were under the gun, they were just live targets. The main reason for gathering these people is to let Nalan Wan'er see her strength, so that she can change her mind and continue to work closely with her.

Nalan Wan'er stood heroically on the high platform, with two white Australians standing next to her, she looked at Xu Junlin on the bow of the boat with a playful face, and said with a sneer: "Junlin, don't bother, I won't cooperate with anyone." ”

Xu Junlin said: "Don't cooperate with anyone? So who are the two dogs next to you? Don't think I don't know, they're from the Agyelle miners, right? Lehman, tell him to come out and talk to me. ”

Nalan Wan'er smiled coquettishly: "What if you recognize it?" Junlin, you don't pee to take care of yourself, you have now become a lost dog, and there is no one behind you, what capital do you have to cooperate with me again? ”

Xu Junlin said angrily: "Nalan Wan'er, you slut, believe it or not, as long as I am willing, you can't be better?" ”

Nalan Wan'er's face was full of disdain: "Even the surname Cheng ran away, what are you?" My aunt and grandmother are in a good mood today, make an exception to see you, don't force the old lady to get angry, otherwise two shells will hit you, and you will wait to feed the fish. ”

After all, Xu Junlin slept in the same bed with Nalan Wan'er, so he naturally knew that Nalan Wan'er was a ruthless woman, and she would definitely do it if she said it. On the shore of Red Island, the muzzle of the cannon was already raised high, and on the boat behind him, the mercenaries he recruited were also full of hasty looks. If it weren't for the backbone of the Zhongyi Hall with guns, they would have begun to lay down the assault boat and flee long ago.

Xu Junlin slapped the boat gang heavily and gave the order to retreat. He no longer dared to go back to Hong Kong, because he received information from friends that the Hong Kong police and some road figures were recently looking for his whereabouts. However, Xu Junlin has a way, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, Nalan Wan'er is unreliable, the surname Cheng is eyeing the other, and there is another party to use.

After discussing with Tang Jingtian, Xu Junlin handed the olive branch to the Vietnamese. The Vietnamese were originally haunted by the loss of Red Island, and when they saw Xu Junlin sent to the door, they could wake up with a smile from their dreams. However, the last time it suffered too big a loss, Vietnam did not dare to launch a large-scale formal offensive again, so it transferred a part of the officers and cadres and asked them to disguise themselves as gang members to cooperate with Xu Junlin and others to capture Hongdao.

Nalan Wan'er and the white Australians are thoughtful, and the island's defenses are quite tight. Liu Weiguo and others have been in Vietnam for more than half a month, and they have never found a chance to go to Red Island. Every time he approached the coast pretending to be a fisherman, he was persuaded by the white people on the island to go back with bullets. If they hadn't wanted to provoke protests from the Vietnamese, the bullets wouldn't have hit the sea.

Cheng Liping has contacted Jiu Ye many times, and when he learned that his parents and most of the old buddies were safe and sound, the urgency in his heart finally eased a lot. However, when it comes to the civilians on the island being tormented by the whites, Cheng Liping has no choice but to wait for the right time to give them justice.

Hearing Liu Weiguo call and say that the progress was extremely unsmooth, Cheng Liping comforted: "Brother Liu, don't worry, let Xu Junlin fight with them first." The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind, so it's time for us to eat ready-made. ”

Liu Weiguo frowned and said: "Xiao Cheng, the kid surnamed Xu and the Vietnamese are very close now, I am worried that they will send a large number of soldiers to the island after repelling the Australians." There aren't many people on our island, so it's too passive to fight like that. ”

Cheng Liping smiled: "Don't worry, it won't." ”

Liu Weiguo didn't know where Cheng Liping's confidence came from, but since he said so, he must be prepared, anyway, Hu Chao, Ding Er and others have all been scattered to keep an eye on them, and Xu Junlin and the Vietnamese can grasp any changes at the first time, but they don't have to worry too much.

Xu Junlin's hot fight with the Vietnamese is also purposeful, the people he recruited are used to street fights, and they can be handy with a small knife or a steel rod and iron bar and small wooden stick, and it is much worse to really play with a gun. Therefore, Xu Junlin asked Tang Jingtian to spend a lot of money to bribe the Vietnamese officers, trying to borrow the Vietnamese barracks and venues to quickly train a group of qualified soldiers.

When collecting the money, the Vietnamese officers behaved very boldly, and agreed to any request very happily. But after this stubble, I won't buy this account. First, he said that the borrowing of the camp required the approval of the top leader, and then said that weapons and other equipment could not be borrowed at will, so what should you do if you make trouble on our land? Xu Junlin, who has always been smart and clever, suffered such a loss, where could he endure it, and immediately said that since you have no sincerity to cooperate, we will handle the affairs of Hongdao by ourselves, and in the future, you alone will not want to get close to the waters of Hongdao.

The Vietnamese officer was afraid that the relationship would be stiffened, so he transferred a batch of obsolete rifles to Xu Junlin. Later, another 100,000 rounds of ammunition were batched, but the bullets were of a uniform caliber, and the rifles were not of the same specification. When it comes to training, 30 percent of rifles don't work. Xu Junlin scolded angrily, saying that it is no wonder that the Vietnamese people can't do anything in a country, and all their belongings have been replaced with weapons, you are so petty. I'm afraid of spending money when I fight, it's really a miser.

The Vietnamese also have bitterness in their hearts and can't say that they offended Italy and Greece in the previous war with Red Island, forcibly blockaded the surrounding waters, and offended Britain and the United States, Argentina, Chile and other countries. Coupled with the inflationary economic crisis at home, they now have no spare energy to rearm and wage war. Otherwise, as a country, where would they take a fancy to Xu Junlin's indiscriminate people.

The strategy of the Vietnamese is to have dates and no dates to play a shot, and if they really want to win by luck, of course they will come to get a piece of the pie. Even if they turn against Xu Junlin again at that time, they are not afraid, after all, Xu Junlin's group is too far from Cheng Liping's people. If they lose, the Vietnamese pat their butts and say that this matter has nothing to do with them, and I believe that others will not take them too seriously.
