"Brother Beimen, should you give me an explanation for this matter. Li Xuantong sat behind the wide desk, looking at the holographic figure presented in front of him, his expression was quite ugly.

"Brother Li, I don't know how to use people properly, and I will never shirk my responsibility. But now that the situation is tense, you and I have to come up with a way first. ”

Li Xuantong was talking to an old man in military uniform, although his beard and hair were white and he was old, his eyes were sharp and his expression was resolute, giving people the feeling of a sharp steel knife.

North Gate Baro, Commander-in-Chief of the Thundercloud Star Planetary Fleet.

The two people who are talking now are undoubtedly the two most powerful people in Thundercloud Star. One is the head of the government, and the other is the supreme commander of the army.

There aren't many things on this planet that these two can discuss together. Even if there is some cooperation, it is handed over to the people below to deal with, at most it is just an instruction. The last time the two talked on the phone, it was because of the declaration of war on the new third district. But this time, the source was just an undercover mission.

It is true that the case of the Xia Dao Shi family is a big case, but it is only because the nature is too bad that it needs to be interrogated by the director and the commander-in-chief, and they do not need to deal with it personally. But the self-assertion of Ma Xiao, the director of the Intelligence Division, made the situation deteriorate in an instant to the extent that even the two bigwigs felt troublesome.

In the name of the Military Intelligence Agency, Ma Xiao contacted the Xiadao City Garrison Command and an interstellar warship that was being trained in the 23rd District, asking them to cooperate with the intelligence department's operations and implement military control over Xiadao City.

It may seem like a simple request for cooperation, but in fact it is very serious.

Starships are heavy weapons that can fight in the universe, even the smallest planetary class is thousands of kilometers long, and the conventional armament is as high as more than 10,000 people, and the captain can only be held by S-class powerhouses. Such a powerful combat power is enough to wipe out Xia Dao City dozens of round-trips.

Fortunately, the commander of the battleship strictly abided by the regulations and reported the news to the staff headquarters as soon as possible, otherwise if the battleship was really going to Xiadao City, no matter how much the Shi family didn't want to make trouble, it would have to be turned upside down.

A small Shi family can't overthrow the government, and even a rebellion like the New Third District can't do. But with their energy, they can plunge the city of Natsushima into a riot.

Just eradicating a Shi family is nothing for the General Administration and the Military Department, and it can be easily done by any party. But if you want to keep the innocent and keep the summer island, which is known as the pearl of the sea, it is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

The Shi family has taken root in Xia Island for many years, and it is a typical local clan power, and it is extremely involved in all aspects. The grassroots backbone of the government and even the army, as well as people from all walks of life, have people from the Shi family. If it is misunderstood as a purge of the family, then it will invite a backlash from the power of the entire clan.

The reason why the General Administration and the Ministry of Military Affairs chose to cooperate is to avoid this to the greatest extent. But Ma Xiao's private actions ruined all his efforts.

"There's a way. Li Xuantong still had a dark face: "Although the battleship has not passed, the garrison in the garrison area has begun to move, and the old house of the Shi family and its surrounding streets are all surrounded by troops. Just ask Brother Beimen to give an order for those soldiers to withdraw to the station. ”

"My director, it's time for you to stop being angry with me. Beimen Ballo smiled wryly:

"There are ten brigades in the Xia Island Garrison District, although only one captain is the Shi family. But more than half of the grassroots officers and even a few deputy captains are inextricably linked to the Shi family. Now that the riots are on the verge of breaking out, how dare I let them withdraw if there is no solution. ”

"I'm not angry with you, if those soldiers don't withdraw quickly, something will happen. Li Xuantong knocked on the table: "I dare to assure you, the Shi family never thought of rebelling. Now that those soldiers are poking, the Shi family must be a hundred times more nervous than us. Everyone is happy to withdraw early, but if you keep consuming like this, there will always be times when you can't hold back. ”

Li Xuantong was not wrong at all, when the two bigwigs had a TV and telephone meeting, the leaders of the Shi family collectively grew three times.

What they are doing today is a confrontation with the investigation, but it is also a test of the government. I know the dirt on my body, and since I have found clues, I am destined to be unkind. Now the Shi family only wants to know where the bottom line of the General Administration and the Military Department is.

Whether to hand over the illegal gains and a few scapegoats to keep the peace, or to take the opportunity to kill the Shi family.

If it is the former, the Shi family can survive with a broken arm to preserve the vitality of the family. As long as the blood is endless, there is always a chance to make a comeback. But if it's the latter, then even if you know that you are invincible, you can't sit still.

A large number of troops were suddenly dispatched, obviously to tear the rhythm of the face, and the Shi family was ready to do their best. But just when it was time to fight, the military's operation was abruptly terminated.

Let's say it's a compromise, no one came out to negotiate. He said that he was going to fight, but there was no clear order. It was difficult to ride a tiger on both sides, and it was stalemate.

Now whether it is the government's side or the Shi family's side, they are thinking hard about countermeasures. But no matter how you think about it, there is no proper solution.

"I really can't do it, so I have to do it. Beimen Balo sighed: "There is no turning back arrow when opening the bow, even if this incident can be resolved safely, the Shi family is also a frightened bird, and something will happen sooner or later." ”

"Xiadao City must not be chaotic!" Li Xuantong immediately objected: "It's easy to sweep the Shi family away, your soldiers pat their butts and leave, leaving a big mess, who will clean up for me? ”

"That's all I can think of. Beimen Baluo spread his hands: "Ma Xiao lacks the overall situation, but he does not lack brains. Since he has created this situation, he is sure that no one can break this situation. That kid is now locked up by me, why don't you let him out and let him think about it?"

"You'd better not let me see him again!" Li Xuantong was angry when he mentioned Ma Xiao, and his eyes were even more disappointed.

For this old friend's son, Li Xuantong has always liked it. used to compare him with Li Hong at one point, thinking that Ma Xiao must have a bright future in the future.

For a long time, Ma Xiao has been performing well, otherwise he would not have become the director of the Intelligence Division at a young age. didn't expect Ma Xiao to do such a thing. Except for their own tasks, almost no consideration is given to the aftermath.

Li Mu has always been misbehaving, but he has never poked a big basket in the real sense, and will even help solve the problem in his own way. Ma Xiao has always been doing serious things, but when something happens, it is such a big trouble.

And what annoyed Li Xuantong even more was that he had a faint feeling that Ma Xiao's stabbing out of this trouble was probably not an accident, but that he did it on purpose.

Ma Xiao is the son of an old friend, and he is not under his control of the people from the military department, so it is inconvenient to say a lot of words. So he just hinted at Ma Chunxin a few words, and didn't tell Beimen Baluo about his guess. But now it seems that North Gate Pollo may not be unaware.

"Let's wait and see. Li Xuandao: "The people of the Xiadao City Investigation Bureau have passed, as long as the conflict can be resolved, there will be a chance to redeem the matter." ”

"The Bureau of Investigation can't help. Beimen Balo shook his head: "Now it's time to play the cards, and the Shi family is using the city's security as a bargaining chip to force the government to compromise." If we don't budge, riots are almost inevitable. ”

Li Xuantong did not refute Beimen Baluo, but only ambiguously said that he would wait a little longer.

But Li Xuantong did not wait for the investigation bureau, let alone expect the official force to solve the problem.

The person that the director really has to rely on is Li Mu.
