As soon as Lin Ruoqiu's words fell, the door of the conference room was pushed open. Under the eyes of everyone, slowly walked into the two character beauties, whose posture was by no means below Xiao Xiao, and should belong to "stunning".

"Dong Li, long time no see!" Huo Lina stretched out her hand and said with a smile: "The last time we met, it was at your wedding. ”

"Miss Huo?" Li Rui smiled and said, "You are really a noble person, how can I remember that I am at the door of your company." ”

Huo Lina smiled awkwardly and said, "You really have a good memory, I forgot about it." ”

Li Rui glanced at Huo Linnan behind Huo Linna, and said with a smile: "The two eldest ladies came in person, it seems that the head of the Huo family has given me Li Rui enough face." ”

"Don't dare to be, the two of us are just my father's 'vote for the name', I just hope that Li Dong will not dislike the two of us for not being good-looking, just if we can't get into your eyes." Huo Lina said with a wink.

Li Rui naturally understood what Huo Lina meant, she wanted to use herself as a bargaining chip in exchange for Li Rui's trust in the Huo family, and no longer cared about the previous grievances.

"The Huo family's 'beauty plan' is too costly, give me my two precious daughters, if I don't want it, it will be too bad to give him face." Li Rui smiled slightly and said, "However, there is no good thing in the sky that will drop pies, I want to know, what does Miss Huo want?" ”

"Naturally, there are requirements, my Huo family is also a famous family, although I am ashamed of myself in front of many stunning beauties, but Li Dong must not treat us badly, so this reputation is ......?"

Before Holina could finish speaking, the bottom of the pot exploded.

Yes, she wanted to be famous as soon as she came up, how could so many women below let her show off.

Li Rui coughed and said with a smile: "Ahem, this is easy to say, as long as the matter is completed, everything can be discussed, but now Shangguan Liang has just launched a new round of attack, and we are worried about this matter, you see......"

Huo Lina smiled slightly and said, "Since we are here, naturally we will not come empty-handed. ”

"In the morning, as Shangguan Liang's new round of offensive began, the 3-month forward premium of the US dollar against the Shanghai banknote was 250 points, and the 3-month interbank lending rate of the Shanghai banknote rose from 5.575% to 7.06%." "However, just half an hour ago, Times Group had raised the interest rate of Shanghai banknotes by issuing large amounts of corporate bonds, which in turn drove up the exchange rate of Shanghai banknotes against the US dollar. ”

Hearing this, everyone present turned their heads and ears again.

"It seems that Miss Huo has really prepared a big gift for us."

"The gift is not only that, Times Group has used all its funds to acquire two banks under Shangguan Liang. The two banks also have a deep friendship with their father, and have agreed to the acquisition and withdrawn from the Shanghai banknote speculation. Huo Lina continued, "This will undoubtedly weaken Shangguan Liang's speculative power. ”

Li Rui nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, the timely rain sent by Miss Huo is really timely." ”

At this time, Fang Youyou said: "Li Rui, now a large number of speculative sales of Shanghai banknotes have begun to appear. ”

Li Rui nodded, looked at Huang Wei, and asked, "Sister Weiwei, how are the funds of the Aoshi Group prepared?" ”

Huang Wei said: "I am ready to buy all the Shanghai banknotes on the market at any time." ”

Li Rui nodded and said, "Then let's act!" ”

Soon, the reserve funds of the group were also activated, and all the Shanghai speculation in the market was bought, which led to a sharp increase in short-term interest rates and a sharp rise in overnight loan interest rates between banks.

A series of counterattacks caused Shangguan Liang to suffer heavy losses.

It was a month later.

In the past month, Shanghai has become a pot of porridge. With the failure of Shangguan Liang's proud financial tactics, this power struggle in Shanghai has also changed from a "cold war" without gunpowder smoke to a real "hot war", Meng Chaofan's task force took the lead in attacking Shangguan Liang, and the thousands of people dormant in the Nanlong Gang instantly became thousands of special operations elites, and launched a street battle with Shangguan Liang's "Tiger and Leopard Battalion". Bai Heng's "White Cloud Guards" also took advantage of Yongcheng, which was controlled by the East China Sea Pacification Zone, to attack from the south of Shanghai. Ouyang Xin also sent an elite force from Youzhou to attack the northern gate of Shanghai. In an instant, Shangguan Liang faced a triple crisis of a north-south attack and an internal attack.

Because Du Yunlong, the commander of the garrison in Shanghai, successfully broke away from Shangguan Liang's camp after Li Baochang's mediation, he chose to support Li Rui. Therefore, in the face of Meng Chaofan and Bai Heng's attack, Du Yunlong chose to close his eyes and not fight, and even simply let go of Bai Heng's "White Cloud Guard" process to avoid getting involved in a melee. Although there are many cronies in Du Yunlong's army, and the garrison force itself is not completely controlled by him, but because its troops are deployed on the periphery of Shanghai, there is no depth at all, and it is blocked by the patrol team formed by Sha Hengzhe, so after Du Yunlong solved the turmoil caused by the sporadic rebels, he immediately controlled the troops and pacified the morale of the army.

Shangguan Liang, who was originally injured because of his "fighting method" with Li Rui, was betrayed by Du Yunlong, and Shangguan Liang was already forced into a desperate situation at this time. What's even worse is that Gu Tong, the director of the Shanghai Police General Bureau, whom he once trusted very much, also openly jumped out against him. And more than 100,000 policemen in Shanghai almost overwhelmingly took refuge in Li Rui. At this moment, in Shangguan Liang's hands, there are only less than 50,000 "Tiger and Leopard Battalions" left to be dispatched.

Rao is the elite of the Haw Par Battalion, and he can't resist attacks that are several times his own.

In January, the gunfire in and around the city has never stopped. On the outskirts of the city, Bai Heng and Ouyang Xin's troops bombarded all day, causing heavy losses to the Haw Par Battalion, which consisted only of light infantry. And in the city, although there was no sound of large-scale shelling, there were constant cold shots, which made people panic, and the streets were empty, and no one dared to go out.

In this process, Li Rui took the opportunity to launch a surprise attack, and Sha Hengzhe's patrol team, with the support of Du Yunlong's garrison troops, pulled out all the strongholds in the far suburbs and suburbs in one fell swoop, and completed the actual control of the suburbs. Gu Tong commanded the police in the city to maintain law and order and protect the safety of people's lives and property, which was also supported by the people in the city.

At the same time, in order to prevent Ouyang Xin and Bai Heng's army from breaking through Shanghai and forming a de facto situation of "three families divided into Jin", Li Rui asked Li Baochang's Haizhou garrison troops to move towards Ouyang Xin and Bai Heng's flanks, forming an interception posture, forcing Ouyang Xin and Bai Heng not to dare to move.

In the Shanghai Police Station, Li Rui was eating instant noodles, when Gu Tong hurriedly ran over and said, "Li Rui, something is wrong." ”

Li Rui hurriedly put down the instant noodles in his hand and asked, "Uncle, what's wrong?" ”

"I just got accurate news, Xiong Jianping in the north attacked the base camp of Meng Liang in Xiliang, Meng Liang rushed bravely by his side, although he was lucky to break through the siege, but he was ...... by the reinforcements sent by Ouyang Xin halfway through"

"That's it?" Li Rui asked.

"Give, kill!" Gu Tong paused and said.

"What? Killed?! Li Rui was stunned, although he had already thought of Ouyang Xin's scheme, but he didn't expect Ouyang Xin to be so vicious.

"Ouyang Xin is treacherous in doing this, it seems that it is completely to eradicate the big trouble for Xun Tiansheng." Gu Tong said.

"Yes, if you want to blame, you can only blame Meng Liang for being too sharp, who called him Bing Feng has already arrived at Xun Tiansheng's doorstep. Originally, Meng Liang was not the biggest threat in Xun Tiansheng's mind, but in this way, he directly replaced Bai Heng's position in Xun Tiansheng's heart and became the object that had to be eliminated. Li Rui sighed and said, "The Meng family is finished, what about Meng Chaofan?" ”

"The intelligence officer sent out reported that Meng Chaofan and his personal soldiers had broken through Du Yunlong's bayonet and arrived in Yongzhou." Gu Tong said, "There are not many of the remaining rabble of the Southern Dragon Gang in the city. This kid is young and vigorous, I'm afraid he won't be able to think about it, and he will go to Ouyang Xin for revenge. ”

"No, it won't." Li Rui shook his head, "With what I know about him, the person he hates the most now should be me." If we hadn't reached an agreement with Xun Tiansheng, there would have been no conspiracy of Ouyang Xin to cross the river and tear down the bridge and hurt people behind it. What's more, Meng Chaofan is the only living mouth of the Meng family, and he must live well so that he can reorganize the Meng family. ”

Gu Tong also sighed and said, "This damn Ouyang Xin is too despicable. ”

Li Rui sighed and said, "Forget it, no matter about him, everyone has everyone's life." Meng Liang is dead, Ouyang Xin is bound to be no longer willing to fall into the quagmire in Shanghai, let alone have the possibility of joining forces with Bai Heng, it is estimated that Bai Heng is the one who should jump up the most. ”

"So what do we do next?"

"Ignore him and let him go." Li Rui said with a smile, "Bai Heng is a smart person, he should know that the most important thing he should do at this time is to stop the loss in time and get out of the quagmire in Shanghai as soon as possible, so as not to lose his wife and soldiers again." ”

Gu Tong nodded and said, "Well, I understand, then I will order to go down and tell the police officers below to relax their patrols and vigilance, and let Bai Heng's minions all withdraw." ”

Li Rui smiled: "Mm-hmm, yes." By the way, uncle, I still want to trouble you with one more thing. ”

"Whatever you want to say, why are you so polite." Gu Tong said.

Li Rui smiled: "I have a gift for Meng Chaofan, please find a way to help me give it to him." ”

"Give a gift to Meng Chaofan? What a gift? Gu Tong was surprised.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms." Li Rui smiled: "This is a gift he once gave me, and now I give it back to him, hoping that he will not be like Zhou Yu in the Three Kingdoms, who was stubborn and self-serving, and lost his life." ”

The next few days were the most stalemate of the battle situation, and it was also the most tense moment for Li Rui.

Shangguan Liang's tiger and leopard battalion suffered heavy losses and had been completely compressed into the city, while Ouyang Xin and Bai Heng outside the city also stopped the attack with each other, but they were still sending reinforcements, and hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed in the north and south. Although Meng Chaofan in the city had fled Shanghai, Long Ling still led the remaining men of the Southern Dragon Gang to fight with the Tiger and Par Battalion street by street, and both sides were constantly consuming their own vitality and dragging themselves deeper into the quagmire.

He Zhenzhi and Shangguan Liang reported to the group for warmth, but in the face of the general trend, it was futile to make any efforts. He Zhenzhi not only bet all the resources of the Guanghui Group, but also used almost the power of the entire "38 series", and even played the hole card SVT in his hand. But as a result, all of this is a drop in the bucket and cannot fundamentally reverse the already declining situation.

He Zhenzhi's two former Malaysian pawns, Wang Binghao and Jin Xinxin, also received due retribution. Wang Binghao was dismissed by He Zhenzhi because of his poor handling and was sent to participate in street fighting, but he was killed by a sniper and ended up in a bleak end. Jin Xinxin was even more miserable, he was caught by Lin Ruoqiu and Ma Ningshuang's men, and finally died without a body. And Wang Binghao's personal female secretary Qi Yu also threw herself at Li Rui after being arrested.

On Li Rui's side, he controlled the entire suburb and with the help of Gu Tong, Lin Ruoqiu, Ma Ningshuang and others, he gradually controlled more than 50 districts on the periphery of the city, and suppressed the remnants of Shangguan Liang and He Zhenzhi in the core urban area of Shanghai.

After Shangguan Liang faced the death squad-style blows of the Southern Dragon Gang, there were only more than 1,000 people left in the tiger and leopard battalion in his hands, and only the hundreds of SVT cultivators in He Zhenzhi's hands were able to resist Li Rui.

Although SVT has a large number of cultivators, its members are basically at the level of first-class masters, and truly powerful cultivators will not be used by SVT at all. And in Li Rui's hands, there happens to be a team similar to SVT, that is, SDT led by Gao Jian, and with the training and help of the "Six Golden Flowers", the number, scale and combat effectiveness of SDT have been doubled, which once again bankrupted He Zhizhi's attempt to rely on SVT to turn the tables against the wind.

But Rao is like this, and the "Six Golden Flowers" still did not directly join the battlefield, because their goal was the "Demon Eye".

Every day, Li Rui sat in the command hall of the Shanghai Police General Headquarters, keeping an eye on the rapidly changing battle situation in the city. And many of his beauties, some of whom are also sitting in the command room, and some are on the front line, in short, they all share the huge pressure for him.

At this moment, Guan Yan hurriedly ran in and said, "Li Rui, something is wrong. ”

Guan Yan is now in charge of the medical and health work in the city, and when Li Rui saw Guan Yan coming in, he subconsciously had a premonition that there was a problem with the battlefield ambulance, and hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"There was a sudden large number of pneumonia infections in the city." Guan Yan said.

"Pneumonia infection?" Li Rui was stunned for a moment, this situation was something he really didn't expect.

Guan Yan said: "To be precise, it is a viral infection, and there has been a human-to-human transmission phenomenon, so it can be concluded that this is a man-made virus war." ”

"Is it Shangguan Liang?" Li Rui asked.

Guan Yan shook her head and said, "It's hard to say at the moment, it may also be He Zhizhi, didn't there be intelligence before that He Zhizhi had many unconventional weapons in his hands?" ”

Li Rui nodded and said, "How many infected people are there in the city now?" ”

"More than 100,000."

Some people died, but not completely......
