Chapter 49: The Return
The weather was as gloomy as the atmosphere in the conference room right now.
Lu Guangyi, deputy commander of the Northwest Theater of Operations, was the first to attack; "General Meng, what happened last night? Please explain it to everyone! ”
Meng Jianbiao glanced at Zhang Jingtao, and only after seeing that he had no expression did he tell the story of yesterday.
After Meng Jianbiao finished speaking, everyone didn't speak for a long time.
For a long time, Lu Guangyi said; "What about the army casualties?"
Meng Jianbiao said; "Forty or fifty people were lightly and seriously wounded, and more than twenty were killed."
"Hiss," a gasp came out, "when did ordinary people have such combat power?" ”
Lu Guangyi first expressed his condolences to the fallen soldiers, and after ordering more sympathy, he aimed the muzzle of the cannon at Meng Jianbiao, "Have you caught the attacker?" Where did they come from? ”
Meng Jianbiao said; "It's all caught, they are the leader of a local underworld organization, what is Mr. Mo's."
"Okay, catch them and interrogate them strictly, we must dig out the main things behind them, the enemy is at stake, the life and death of mankind, they dare to make trouble, and dare to shoot at the army, once they are found, they will be severely punished immediately, and they will not be tolerated, but ......," Lu Guangyi said with a change of words; "Commander Meng, under your rule, there will be such a bad riot, and such a bad underworld force will appear, should you say something?"
Meng Jianbiao said; "I did have negligence, when I cleaned up the streets, I did not expect that these people would have such a big courage to dare to openly confront the army, and the loss caused to the army by negligence for a moment cannot be shirked, and I will not escape what the consequences should be.
Meng Jianbiao said sonorously and powerfully, the person who attacked him didn't know what to say for a while, and soon someone came to relieve the siege, and the one who stood up was the senior minister who came to Meng Jianbiao many times, and he said unhurriedly; "What is Commander Meng's crime, he carried out an action to clean up the entire Tongling City, the garbage cleaned up is like a mountain and a sea, now is really the season of high incidence of epidemics, once you do not act decisively, the epidemic is epidemic, the whole Tongchuan City is probably not as simple as a few deaths, I think Commander Meng not only did not have a merit, a great credit."
The voice of retort immediately sounded, and it was a fat man who spoke, this guy looked like he was three hundred pounds, and his face was full of fat and his eyes were almost squeezed out of sight, especially his impressive belly, the folds formed by layers of fat were like miniature terraces, and even the oversized military uniform could only barely cover it. Not to mention that this kid's body size is in the Northwest Theater, even in China, I am afraid that it is unique.
He said with a loud voice; "It is a matter of course to manage one's own jurisdiction, what credit is there?"
Looking at this soldier who looked like a fat pig, Minister Gao was angry, and he couldn't help blurting out; "General Du, then do you have to manage the jurisdiction well?"
This fat man surnamed Du is the chief official of Los Angeles, he is not only good, but also more lustful, after the end of the world, the law is not so strict, as long as you are willing, as long as you can afford it, it is normal for a person to have three or five women, as a senior general, most of the people present are three wives and four concubines, but this kid is a bit excessive, there are more than a dozen wives inside and out, in addition to the amount of food like a pig, his salary is not enough to spend, his hands are naturally stretched into the army, his style is not correct, and the people below are up and down. The small city of Los Angeles was governed by him, and the people of Los Angeles were miserable.
Once again, everyone was not far away, and they knew most of each other's situation, seeing that everyone else was looking at him with a smile, Du Qiang blushed a little, and he hurriedly said; "At least nothing so bad happened!"
"Wow," said Wan Wan, the chief of the police department in charge of law and order, as a thick document was thrown on the table; "In the month of last month alone, there were more than 200 large and small shootings in Luocheng, killing more than 300 people, and more than 1,000 other robbery, rape and other vicious cases, killing more than 200 people.
"Also," said Minister Gao again; "According to the report of the Department of Health, more than a dozen cases of suspected infectious diseases have been found in Luocheng, General Gao, if you don't hurry up to deal with it, I'm afraid your Luocheng City will become the source of infection in our northwest theater."
"I'm ......, I'm ......" Du Fatzi was anxious and angry, and he couldn't speak for a while.
The style of painting unconsciously deflected, from an attack on Meng Jianbiao to an attack on this fat man.
"That's it!" Zhang Jingtao spoke; "Don't argue, there are a lot of things to deal with, how can you have time to talk here, Meng Jianbiao is right to clean up the sanitation of Tongling City, and it is also very necessary, but the method is not appropriate, the problem is not well considered, and it will cause serious consequences.
At present, the forces in the Northwest Theater are roughly divided into three parts, one is already the ruling faction headed by Commander Zhang Jingtao, who controls Tongling City, the most important city in the Northwest Theater, has the most elite army in it, and controls the most resources.
There is also the local faction headed by Deputy Commander Lu Guangyi, and seven or eight of the 10 major cities under the direct jurisdiction of Tongling City are his people, and there are countless other small cities. The power should not be underestimated.
Then there is the central faction represented by Wang Changlin, most of them are sent to various places by Yanjing City, although their power is not large, and Yanjing City's control over local forces is not as good as before, but as long as Yanjing City is not broken and the central banner does not fall, then no one dares to ignore them, especially several cities close to Yanjing City have extended olive branches to him through or through light or cover.
Seeing that he could no longer exert a lot of pressure on Meng Jianbiao, Lu Guangyi also knew the truth of accepting it when he saw it, he glanced at Du Fatzi with some annoyance, and snorted in his mouth; "Since Commander Zhang has spoken, we naturally have no objections, and the contribution of General Meng to Yanjing City is also obvious to all, and the commander-in-chief's handling is still very fair."
The meeting was dismissed after discussing a few more minor issues, but when they left the table, some people were inevitably a little heavy, and the people present were all elites, and they had already seen that the power struggle in Tongling City had shifted from secretly to the table, and the trend of splitting the entire Northwest Theater was inevitable.
Looking at Tongling City, which is getting farther and farther away, Zhang Xiaofan's "bang" heart began to slow down, and when the news of the attack on the cleaning team in Chengbei District came as soon as the news came, Zhang Xiaofan ran away, fortunately, the attack happened in Chengbei District, and it was not his turn Zhang Xiaofan to be punished, judging from the grapevine that came, this is definitely not an ordinary public opinion incident, these points can be seen from the heavy casualties of the army that maintains order.
According to the news that Dong Sanchuan came later, in just a few minutes of firefighting, the army's casualties were almost one-third, and it can be said that they were pressed and beaten from beginning to end, if it wasn't for the attackers who retreated quickly, it was possible that this company would have been wiped out, and this was definitely not something that could be done after just a few days of military training.
From the meaning of Dong Sanchuan's words, it can be felt that the group of attackers was not caught at all, and disappeared without a trace at the moment of the end of the battle, which made the army that rushed to hear the news behind them anxious and angry, so they had to catch a few gangsters to deal with the matter. And Mo Shaocong, who was the scapegoat, disappeared for the first time, and it seems that he is also unlucky.
It wasn't until now that Zhang Xiaofan intuitively felt the horror of the human power struggle, Zhang Xiaofan didn't understand, whether they were funny or not, now the dreaded beasts are powerful, and the human race is in a dangerous situation, if the human race is completely wiped out, they will still toss a hammer.
However, this does not prevent him from staying away from this place of right and wrong, Meng Jianbiao is covered by Zhang Jingtao, a big Buddha, and a little wind and waves will not damage him at all. He is just a small soldier, and a random hat that is unfavorable is enough to make himself irreversible, and Zhang Xiaofan finally accumulated some confidence in dealing with the dreaded armor beast, and he was beaten out of the prototype in an instant.
Although he escaped from Tongling City, he did not prevent himself from making some arrangements for the affairs of Tongling City, Wu Liang, as his only subordinate in Tongling City, bore the brunt of being the first successor, in order to prevent this kid from being dishonest, Zhang Xiaofan found him a deputy.
Dong Sanchuan originally took advantage of the opportunity given to him by Zhang Xiaofan to develop again, just when he wanted to find out again in Liusha Town, the feeling was that the attack in the rich area in the north of the city was like a basin of cold water poured on his head, looking at Mo Shaocong, who had dominated Tongling City for decades, disappeared without a trace in an instant, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead, Dong Sanchuan understood. This is not Liusha Town, even if you make a big noise in Tongling City, you are just a small loach, and any little wind and waves are enough to swallow yourself cleanly, leaving no residue.
It just so happened that Zhang Xiaofan beckoned to him again, asking him to be Wu Liang's deputy and take care of the affairs of the slum for him, and the treatment of the bandit turned official made him ecstatic again, and he was Wu Liang's deputy, which is almost a middle-level cadre in Tongling City, and he finally doesn't have to hide in the corner like a mouse, he can also stand in the sun and do things, thinking of this, Dong Sanchuan can wake up with a smile when he falls asleep.
The two of them are black and white, one has been in an official position for a long time and knows the officialdom of Tongling City well, and the other is in the underworld and has a clear understanding of low-level life, so that the two of them can work together just so that they can monitor each other, Zhang Xiaofan doesn't need them to create much merit for themselves, as long as they don't stab themselves in the rules, they will be satisfied.
The Weinan City behind him is getting farther and farther away until he can no longer see it, Zhang Xiaofan breathed a heavy sigh of relief, and finally stayed away from this place of right and wrong, his own ability is not enough in front of these old oilmen who have been immersed in officialdom for half their lives in Tongling City, it's better not to come to this place of right and wrong.
The convoy behind meandered into a long line, they were all workers recruited by Zhang Xiaofan from Tongling City, and Tongling City welcomed this method of drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle.
