"General, you don't have to come forward for the media." Zhao Li smiled, knowing that General Lucas was the answer, it seemed that although Zhao Li's position had changed, the relationship between the two had not changed for the time being.

"If I don't come forward, who will get justice for you?" The general was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect Zhao Li to say this: "Do you want to take action personally?" ”

"No, no, general, I mean, since there are people who make irresponsible remarks about my appointment at the meeting of the high command, is it inseparable from them that this kind of thing happens at this time?" Of course, Zhao Li knew that someone had obstructed his appointment at the meeting of the Command, so it seemed a bit of a blame to say it at this time.

Hearing this, the general was stunned for a moment, and then immediately smiled: "Yes, there is such a good scapegoat to stand up for us, why do you have to let me fall into this reputation of bullying." ”

In front of Zhao Li, General Lucas directly pressed the communicator and called his secretary: "Help me connect General Cleveland to Promised Land!" ”

"Cleveland, I'm Lucas." After showing General Cleveland's portrait on the screen, General Lucas explained his meaning very bluntly: "What do these media reports mean?" ”

"It's not about me!" General Cleveland looked at Lucas's face and suddenly felt the urge to find something to throw in Lucas's face. After saying this coldly, he looked at Lucas coldly.

"Come less, can you make it clear that it has nothing to do with you?" General Lucas sneered, leaned back, and accused Cleveland with a bit of seriousness: "Old fellow, you said you, you are also a military commander, and you are so serious with a junior, did you say it in the past?" ”

"I repeat, it has nothing to do with me!" Cleveland's eyes were about to burst into flames, and he leaned forward, as if he was about to burrow into the screen and reach General Lucas.

"Well, it's none of your business." General Lucas shrugged his shoulders and didn't care: "When the time comes, if you hear something unpleasant, it's not what I said, it's not about me!" After saying that, General Lucas hung up the communication with a relaxed face, and then directly began to laugh.

Zhao Li sat across from him and began to smile as well.

"You say, Cleveland has carried such a big black cauldron for no reason, what is the mood now?" After laughing, General Lucas faced Zhao Li and asked this sentence that made him feel more comfortable: "However, you kid, you are really bad, you don't do it yourself, and you force others to help you carry things down." ”

"Isn't this the general's teachings?" Zhao Li also laughed happily, it is also a very happy thing to make a person who has never been accustomed to him deflated.

"Boy, yes, promising." General Lucas nodded again: "Originally, I was worried that I might not be able to calm down after you took office, but now I am relieved." The deputy I arranged for you is Lieutenant General Liu Wei, who is very experienced, and if you have any questions, you can consult him, and he is absolutely reliable. ”

The general said that it is absolutely reliable, which means that this Lieutenant General Liu Wei is absolutely his own person. Zhao Li nodded, and suddenly asked very seriously: "General, you said, how about letting Lieutenant General Liu Wei be in charge of military command, and letting the deputy selected by General Cleveland carry out the base construction first?" Most of Shiratori's bases have been almost destroyed by General McCann, and base construction is a very important job! ”

When General Lucas heard Zhao Li's question, he was stunned and stretched out his hand to point at the serious Zhao Li, and his mouth couldn't help but keep laughing, but his fingers couldn't help but tremble. Finally, he slapped his big hand on the desk and laughed wildly.

"Bastard!" Completely different from General Lucas's wild laughter, General Cleveland, who hung up the communication, had an iron face. The same slap on the table, but General Cleveland used a fist.

Inexplicable things, it was inexplicably blamed on his head, General Cleveland couldn't help but have a desire to look up to the sky and roar, but reason still made him calm down quickly.

General Lucas was right, he had obstructed, and at that time he was the strongest obstruction at the Commanders' Conference. In this case, those media in the military now have these things, and if they want to say that they have nothing to do with General Cleveland, the ghost believes it.

Originally, when he saw these reports, Cleveland was still snickering, but he didn't expect that a huge basin would be directly buttoned to his head. The most angry thing is that he has nothing to say unless he clears his grievances. However, since these reports have already begun to be published in various military regions, is it possible to say that the commanders of those military regions above them do not know about this matter? As long as you do it, it's something that offends people.

In this regard, General Cleveland is indeed a little wronged. Those unlucky commanders of military districts really didn't know about this in advance. They're having a headache right now, and they wish someone would come out and clear them up.

A few complacent editors-in-chief are looking forward to the upcoming huge fame, but a simple notice directly shatters the dreams of several editors-in-chief.

It was a notice from the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the military inviting them to coffee, which was very simple, a few words, to the effect that it was a notice to the respected Mr. So-and-so, please report to a certain place before a certain time in a certain year, a certain month, and a certain time, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs please drink coffee.

Now that we knew that we were going to fight against a force that was too big to fight, it was natural to be prepared for this. In the eyes of his subordinates as if they were seeing a daredevils about to go to battle, the editor-in-chief of Colonel Jack stood in the center of the newspaper office, with a calm expression, and walked out of the newspaper office as if he had nothing to do. Outside, a black military vehicle was quietly parked at the door, and two majors in black military police uniforms waited for Editor-in-Chief Jack with a calm face.

Seeing Colonel Jack appear, the two majors stood up and saluted at the same time. After the colonel returned the salute, a major stretched out his hand to open the door of the military vehicle behind him, and Colonel Jack walked into the military vehicle. Subsequently, the two majors also got into the car, one left and one right sandwiched the colonel in the middle, and the military vehicle drove away silently. Then, the people in the newspaper office carefully poked their heads out of the door, looking at the military vehicle that was going away, and their expressions were very rich.

Colonel Jack didn't even know where he had been. The military vehicle drove directly into a battleship, and he was sent into a single cabin, which was simply furnished, but clean. Immediately afterwards, the battleship took off. After landing, he was stuffed into a military vehicle and into a base, and then he was stuffed into a dark room with no light.

Just as he was in shock, the lights in the room were suddenly turned on. In the large room, there is only a simple stool, a wall as smooth as a mirror, on which you can still see your own shadow. Seeing this scene, Colonel Jack immediately knew that this was the interrogation room of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"Sit!" A machine-machined pitch-shifting voice sounded. Having arrived here, Colonel Jack had already prepared for the worst, so he was not surprised and sat down on the stool very cooperatively.

"Colonel Jack, originally from xx place, xx year xx month xx said to join the army...... a mechanically synthesized female voice began to play Colonel Jack's resume, from the time he joined the army, almost all the big and small things were recorded. Colonel Jack himself listened quietly, as if some of the words on his resume had evoked some of his memories.

"Colonel, are these resumes true?" The pitch-shifting interrogation voice sounded again, and it didn't sound very vicious.

"It's true." Colonel Jack nodded, some of the above were his proud experiences, otherwise how could he have been promoted to the position of editor-in-chief. It is quite normal for someone in the Ministry of Internal Affairs to know such a resume.

"As for the latest report, it should have been written or instructed by the Colonel, Colonel, do you admit it?" As soon as the interrogator's voice was finished, the mirror-like wall immediately revealed a very clear and amplified report, which was the one that the Colonel had carefully concocted.

"I admit it." The Colonel was still calm, of course he knew why he was here. The report has been sent out, and it is impossible to take it back, and the civilian media have also reprinted it, and even the military has no way to take it back. No matter how powerful these people are, they don't dare to do anything to him, otherwise they will not be able to explain to the broad masses of the people. In this era, public opinion is God, and even the military does not dare to ignore it.

"Did someone instigate you to publish this irresponsible report?" The interrogation began to turn, and the question turned in a different direction.

"Irresponsible reporting? Inspire? Colonel Jack suddenly laughed, hahahaha was almost hysterical, and after laughing for a long time, he calmed down: "No, I wrote the report responsibly, and I did it myself, and no one instructed me." ”

"Whether you are responsible or not, Colonel, you don't count." The voice is still that weird, but you can already vaguely hear the unhappiness inside: "As a military media, it is your responsibility and obligation to truthfully reflect the news events in the army." However, the premise is to reflect truthfully. Colonel, this time, you made a bad decision. ”

"Whether it is wrong or not is up to the people, not you." The Colonel answered the question with a tone of voice that was the same as that of the interrogator.

"We have different opinions on this point." The interrogator did not care about his tone, in fact, in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, there were so many such people that he did not even have the idea of making the interrogator curious.

"Yes, we disagree." Colonel Jack responded to the interrogator with the same look and tone as if he were chatting with the interrogator. He seems to have seen that in the near future, in a certain heavyweight media, in an important report, how calm and willing he was in the face of the interrogation of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and the admiration of the people when he saw this report next.

"Very well, do you have clear evidence for what you say in the report, Colonel?" The interrogator doesn't care if his attitude is good or bad, this matter is not here for his attitude in the first place.

"Nope!" Colonel Jack frankly admitted: "If there is evidence, it is not the tone of this speculation, but the affirmative statement." ”

"Can I think that you have made a very irresponsible slander and slander against General Zhao Li himself and the Supreme Command without evidence?" The interrogator's tone was also stern, not at all like the calm he had just been. A huge hat was buttoned down without hesitation.

"No, I'm not slandering!" When Colonel Jack heard this, he suddenly could no longer maintain the calm he had just had, became excited, waved his arms, and shouted loudly: "I am not slandering, this is the truth!" ”

"The facts?" The interrogator repeated the phrase dismissively: "The truth is, you don't have any evidence to prove what you say you are, do you?" ”

"The media's responsibility is to supervise and guide, and the military has a responsibility to respond to the media's doubts." Colonel Jack still cites his principles and doesn't let go: "There are too many suspicious things in the whole thing, if there are no voices of doubt, then isn't it someone who is covering the sky with one hand?" ”

"The responsibility of the military media is more to guide, and you should not be unclear about this point for so long as you have been the editor-in-chief." The interrogator unceremoniously took responsibility for responsibility: "Have you ever thought that your report will cause problems with the morale of the military and indirectly damage the image of the military in the hearts of the people?" ”

"If the High Command can give a reasonable explanation for this, the image problem will naturally not exist." Colonel Jack instantly put himself on the opposite side of the Command, this opportunity to directly confront the Supreme Command, thinking of this, Colonel Jack had an irrepressible excitement, and his body slowly trembled.

"You're talking about the common people in society, and the military is not obliged to provide any form of explanation for your demands." The interrogator's voice was filled with unspeakable sarcasm: "You should know this for so many years as the editor-in-chief of the military media. If you have to use the social set, then whoever doubts it will provide evidence, this is the rule. And you, there is no evidence! ”

"The media has the right to oversee and the right to demand a reasonable explanation from the top." Colonel Jack suddenly remembered his immediate superior, and he said of the attitude of the report: "This matter is obviously unreasonable, and if you don't explain it clearly, you are not responsible for the soldiers." ”

"No media has the right to demand that the military divulge top military secrets!" The interrogator's voice was unequivocal and uncompromising.

"Military secrets!" Colonel Jack repeated the word, and suddenly his face changed. This is not socially, this is inside the army. Anything can be dressed up as a military secret, and then anyone who questions it can be dealt with on the charge of spying on military secrets.
