"It's a dead end for you to go back." Liu Yun said.

Mei Wenhua disagreed: "Are you talking about the harm of time machines to the human body?" You told Liu Haifeng about this before, and I heard it next to me, but I, like him, have no reason to believe you. Unlike you, we are not interested in changing the world or anything like that, your ideals mean nothing to us, most of us just want to complete the task and get promoted and get rich, and then live more comfortably in that world...... In short, we can't stay with the next one, so please don't bother about it. ”

"I just wanted to save you." Liu Yun said.

"We're saving ourselves, my men are slaughtering your so-called army, you should know our strength, you sent those garbage soldiers to just send them to their deaths." Mei Wenhua accidentally showed a smug look.

"No, I'm just letting them consume your ammo." Liu Yun said coldly.

Mei Wenhua froze.

Liu Yun was expressionless: "I can afford it, I have 450 million people, I have an annual output of more than 3 million tons of steel, can produce aircraft, artillery, warships and tanks heavy industry, not to mention, you can destroy my 3,000 troops today, tomorrow I can make up 30,000 people, today you knock out one or two of my train guns, tomorrow I can also send ten more over, time is in my favor, and you are alone, there is no logistics, and if you continue to fight, you can only be wiped out." ”

"Count you cold-blooded......" Mei Wenhua muttered in his heart, shook his head and said: "In this way, when the time comes, we can only fight to the death of a fish and break the net, ugly words are ahead, before our whole army is annihilated, at least you can pull your 100,000 army to see the king of Hades, if you don't believe it, try it!" ”

"You're threatening me?"

"I'm just pointing out a future that won't be beneficial to both sides, and I hope Mr. Liu can understand our plight."

"I need to consult with my comrades and contact you later, and in order to show the sincerity of both sides, I think we should immediately order a ceasefire at the front."

"As soon as your troops, especially the artillery units, withdraw to a distance of twenty kilometers around the base, we will immediately achieve a ceasefire, during which time we reserve the right to defend ourselves." Mei Wenhua had already learned the general situation of the opponent from the prisoners sent back from the front, and when he thought that the base might be turned into a sea of fire by hundreds of cannons in an instant, Mei Wenhua's fingers trembled subconsciously, and he had made up his mind that no matter what, he would insist that Liu Yunjun must first withdraw the artillery units before a ceasefire could be achieved.

"We will immediately withdraw from within twenty kilometers of the base, and during this period, you must not attack our troops in retreat." Liu Yun's tone is non-negotiable, this is already his absolute bottom line.

"I agree." Mei Wenhua said.

Communication was interrupted.

"Order the front-line divisions to immediately cease fire and withdraw to the starting positions."

After instructing Yang Zhengjin like this, Liu Yun turned to Wen Yi.

"What do you think?"

"How much do you think it will cost to completely eliminate them?" Wen Yi asked rhetorically.

"Judging from the current situation, the casualties of a hard attack may exceed 30,000, and at least more than 100,000 troops should be assembled before the general attack......"

Wen Yi continued: "We also have to take into account the problem of explaining to public opinion, such a huge casualty cannot be concealed from public opinion, in this way, we will be under further pressure from all sides, if we are not careful, the paper can't contain the fire......"

Liu Yun clasped his arms and nodded: "Indeed, the longer the matter drags on, the more we will be unable to explain to public opinion." The other party must have expected this......"

"Think of it as exchanging money for the army, the troops you mobilized are the only remaining standing army in the country, and it's too pointless to use them to fight the task force."

"That's 13 million dollars...... The two Ruizi battleships were there. ”

"Thirteen million is just that, and I can get it back from the stock markets in London and New York, and besides, the pension for the 30,000 dead officers and soldiers alone will exceed 4 million yuan."

"Makes sense......"

Ten minutes later, Liu Yun personally controlled the A2 terminal and connected to the task force.

"Mr. Lieutenant, we have discussed, we can give you what you want, but there are conditions: first, the materials will be transported to your base by us in batches and counted on the spot; Second, we may send a number of liaison officers to your base, and you should ensure the normal communication between these liaison officers and our headquarters; Thirdly, you should absolutely abandon offensive preparations against us and accept the supervision of our liaison officers at any time; Fourthly, we undertake not to send any armed force into the 20-kilometre radius of your base, but we will be able to send one or two unarmed aircraft or airships to patrol your skies if weather permits......"

After listening to Liu Yun's list of conditions silently, Mei Wenhua only said: "Please allow me to discuss it with the other team members." The communication was turned off.

Liu Yun and Wen Yi looked at each other and smiled—Liu Yun couldn't help but think that it had been a long time since the two had looked at each other with a smile of anticipation of victory like this.

Did something happen?

In fact, it's just that the two haven't seen each other for a long time.

The cause was the dispute a few months ago, after the two had a verbal battle with bayonets, Wen Yi took the initiative to resign from the post of prime minister and went to the south in the name of recuperation. The support of some of these leading figures was enlisted. The above actions were originally carried out by Wen Yi in order to prevent Liu Yun from embarking on the militarization of the empire, but until this night, Wen Yi had not thought that while he was carrying out these actions, Liu Yun only habitually sent the Eagle Wolf Team to spy on him, but never carried out any actions against him personally. In other words, Liu Yun never regarded Wen Yi as an opponent, and the so-called "war madman who will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal" is actually not Liu Yun's true image, or rather, it is just one of the more violent phantoms burning in Liu Yun's body. However, just that one phantom is enough to make people tremble.

Wen Yi felt that he couldn't see Liu Yun clearly, and sometimes he would be terrified to find that the old friend he had known since he wore open crotch pants might just be a puppet with countless masks, and the countless souls of this puppet were hidden in the earth and in any corner of the sky, appearing when needed and destroying when needed...... After thinking about it like this, Wen Yi would rationally scold himself for being a psychopath, but after a while, Wen Yi would still can't help but want to discover those unknown souls in Liu Yun's body......

At this time, Wen Yi didn't want to think too much, he had already returned to Beijing and met Liu Yun, the atmosphere at the beginning was quite satisfactory, what would happen next, he could only take one step at a time. Wen Yi felt that he was no longer sure to predict Liu Yun's next move, let alone guess his thoughts...... If the two are destined to turn their faces in the next second, then it's better to wait until the next second.

didn't wait long, Mei Wenhua's little white face appeared on the screen again.

"Mr. Liu, we have decided to accept your conditions."

The bizarre civil war, which no one had expected, ended so briefly and dramatically - the Chief of the General Staff, Admiral Yang Jung-kim, summed up afterwards.

However, the bad news that began on the night of 29 April did not stop there.

Overnight, three generals disappeared.

Originally, Wu Dingguo was detained in the detention center of the Higher Military Court of the Zhili Military Region, and the verdict was scheduled to be pronounced at 3 p.m. on 1 May. Due to the interference of the contingent incident, Liu Yun personally instructed the military court to transfer Wu Dingguo to Tianjin first, but in the process of transfer, the train derailed, and the bailiffs escorted were killed and wounded, and Wu Dingguo disappeared.

Then there was the former commander of the Third Field Army, Lieutenant General Chen Xingyun, who was driven back to the capital by Liu Yun in January of this year because of his poor performance, and was ordered to reflect on himself, during which it is said that he has been complaining constantly, and after the martial law order was issued in the early morning of April 30, his family had been arranged to move to Tianjin, but according to the report of the guards in charge of escorting, after the train arrived in Tianjin, Chen Xingyun did not know where to go, and the escort had to temporarily settle his family.

There is also Ma Chengwu, the former commander of the Vladivostok Front Army was recalled due to mental problems, during which he was given an idle post, idle, on the evening of April 29, Liu Yun convened a meeting of comrades He was still present, after which everyone has been busy, he said that he had a headache, so he went to sleep in the rest area next door, Liu Yun did not send him a task, at eight o'clock in the evening of April 30, that is, when Liu Yun just rushed back to the temporary headquarters from his house, Ma Chengwu said that he had a severe headache and wanted to go home to get medicine, Liu Yun approved. At that time, Ma Chengwu took his two guards and a driver and left in a car. At about 11 o'clock that night, Liu Yun sent a team of soldiers from the Tiger and Leopard Battalion to Ma Chengwu's house because he could not contact Ma Chengwu, but found the bodies of Ma Chengwu's guards and drivers in the house, and his car was still parked in the garage, but Ma Chengwu himself was missing.

"Dispatch the Eagle Wolf Team, we must find these three people, we must see people alive and corpses when we die."

After receiving the news of Ma Chengwu's disappearance, Liu Yun immediately ordered Yang Zhengjin, who was currently in charge of the Eagle Wolf Team.

"These three people disappeared together, there must be something strange in the meantime, what the hell is going on, find out for me!"

Liu Yun clenched his fists.

"Bell, bell, bell......"

The heavy chiming clock on the wall made a suffocating dull sound, the hour hand pointed to twelve, it was midnight, and the time of the ghosts, if there were any ghosts.

Underneath the chiming bell is a long note with four large characters written in black pen: Spirits Disperse.

Liu Yunzhi said, it was written by his daughter Liu Qianhua after dinner, and he couldn't help but feel a warm current in his heart.
