Chapter 1169 The end of the first day

Early in the morning, Military Command Headquarters, Director's Office.

Director Secretary Li Qiwu stood carefully next to Dai Chunfeng, sorting out documents for old classmates who were working overtime, and reporting in a low voice.

"Bureau chief, there have been a lot of rumors in the bureau these past two days, and the content is related to Deputy Director Song of the Second Division."

"Oh?"

Dai Chunfeng let out a cry of surprise or question. His eyes did not leave the documents on the table, and his expression did not change much.

Li Qiwu saw all this and felt a little happy in his heart.

He knew Dai Chunfeng very well. He always showed his emotions and anger, and even though he looked calm on the outside, he was probably already furious in his heart.

Gucci! Song Minghao, and Zuo Zhong, your good days are over!

Li Qiwu looked worried about the country and the people. He bent down a little lower, leaned close to Dai Chunfeng's ear, and lowered his voice to make a small report.

"Only Gu Qi and Song Minghao know the specific locations of the destroyed safe houses and secret surveillance points. Outsiders have no way of knowing.

Dai Chunfeng stood up suddenly and asked back, raised his hand to look at his watch, burst into laughter, lightly hit the desk with his right hand and exclaimed.

Li Qiwu endured it for several years, consciously waiting for the opportunity to strike a fatal blow. At this moment, he finally showed his fangs and wanted to bite Zuo Zhong hard.

"Good! We recovered the code book less than 24 hours after the incident. Well done!"

Even if the other party and Dai Chunfeng have the title of master and apprentice, in the face of power, it doesn't matter if they are father, son, or brother, let alone master and apprentice.

If the printing factory is exposed or attacked, the public criticism and economic pressure will be enough to make the military commander shake his muscles.

After he said this, the internal review became a good thing. As for whether it is true or false, it depends on how Dai Chunfeng decides.

Before and after Zhao Shijian and Shi Zun fought against each other, and after that there was the Xuanwumen Incident in the early Tang Dynasty. The struggle for power and gain was nothing less than brutal.

"what?"

In the operations, technology, internal support, training classes and other departments, there are also many forces in the Zuo department. Many small agents even know that they only know the Zuo deputy director and do not know how to hold the bureau seat.

After hearing what he said, Dai Chunfeng frowned, as if he was considering this suggestion. In fact, he wanted to persuade Li Qiwu not to fight Zuo Chong.

"Bureau, half an hour ago, under the command of Gu Qi, one team coordinated with two teams to launch a surprise attack on the enemy stronghold that attacked the safe house. One target was killed and one was injured, and the codebook was successfully recovered!"

It's not that I don't trust my brothers, it's just that people's words are scary. If we find out as soon as possible, Lao Gu and Lao Song will be able to put down their burdens and continue to serve the party and the country. "

In Li Qiwu's opinion, Zuo Zhong's clique now has too much power within the military system, especially the intelligence system. More than 90% of the grassroots cadres have experience working under Zuo Zhong.

The safe house that communicates with the printing factory was attacked, and the code book fell into the hands of the enemy. This incident was the biggest crisis since the establishment of military unification. Dai Chunfeng's mood can be described as restless.

Now Zuo Zhong had made a wonderful turnaround in just one day. How could this not make Dai Chunfeng happy? He immediately turned around and said calmly to Li Qiwu.

But is this really the case?

No boss would allow this to happen, and now was the perfect time for him to criticize Zuo Zhong.

Whether it is slander or advice all depends on whether it satisfies the interests of the superior, nothing more.

What is even more suspicious is that on the day of the incident, Song Minghao had just visited the safe house. The matter was quite strange, and he believed that the inspection office should be involved in the investigation.

Unexpectedly, Zuo Zhong knocked on the door and walked in. After glancing at Li Qiwu, he loudly reported the good news to Dai Chunfeng.

In history, countless monarchs destroyed the Great Wall because of slander, making them look foolish.

"Qi Wu, please go out first. Shen Zhong and I have some work to discuss."

I almost found out when I was snitching, but Li Qiwu didn't change his expression when facing the person involved. He said yes with a smile, nodded to Zuo Zhong and walked out.

Zuo Zhong passed by him with a gentler smile. He politely opened the door for Li Qiwu and watched him leave.

Looking at the silent exchange between his proud disciple and his old classmate, Dai Chunfeng didn't take it seriously. He walked to the sofa and sat down, beckoning Zuo Zhong to come over.

"Shen Zhong, please sit down and tell me the story of the case. The committee is also very concerned about this matter."

Zuo Zhong responded respectfully. After sitting down, he told the early investigation and analysis process, as well as the later reward and arrest details one by one. His expression was very objective.

Not only did he admit that he had made mistakes in his work, he also did not deliberately conceal the losses, and he casually apologized to Lao Dai.

Never treat your boss as a fool. When you treat others as a fool, it means failure is not far away. This is true in the workplace and in the officialdom.

Dai Chunfeng raised the corners of his mouth slightly and waved his hands to indicate it was okay. He compared Zuo Zhong and Li Qiwu in his mind and sighed secretly.

His old friend had some abilities, but not much, and was narrow-minded and shoddy.

Maybe it's because he comes from a small family, his vision of the problem is too small, he has to spend every penny, he can do things but not take them seriously.

The other party didn't understand at all that he and Zuo Zhong had a mutually beneficial relationship, and they couldn't be compared to ordinary masters and disciples.

Moreover, Zuo Zhong is young and has too little experience, so he can be safely used within ten years.

As for ten years from now.

At that time, if he was still entangled in the position of military commander, he should abdicate and make way for his disciples.

Shaking his head helplessly, Dai Chunfeng put aside the matter of his old classmates, tilted his head and whispered a piece of news, which was related to the personnel arrangements within the Fruit Party.

"Shen Zhong, your performance in the bandits' den is outstanding. The chairman is very satisfied and has decided to elect you as a new alternate Central Executive Committee member at this meeting." "I will repay the party and the country to the death for my humble position!"

Zuo Zhongshu stood up immediately, looked ahead and stood at attention, loudly expressed his loyalty to Lao Dai and someone, and shouted something vaguely.

Anyway, he is from Ningbo, so it is normal for him to have an accent. If anyone has any objections, just talk to someone and let him see if his bald head is smooth or not.

"Okay, okay." Dai Chunfeng's smile did not diminish, he pressed his hands again and said seriously: "Cultivation by the party and state, personal performance."

Gan, those of you who are senior officers have been trained uniformly, and you all say the same thing.

Zuo Zhong secretly cursed, but on the surface he bowed to Lao Dai more excitedly, his tone choked, and his voice trembled as he sent the horse P away.

"Students are so virtuous and talented. To win the favor of teachers and committee members, I have been promoted repeatedly from the position of deputy director of the military command to a member of the Central Executive Committee. My student is filled with gratitude."

The so-called Central Executive Committee members are members of the highest authority of the Fruit Party, which is equivalent to a name that cannot be mentioned.

It is very troublesome to explain, but in short it represents the status within the party. A certain person, Minister Kong, Minister Song, including Yan Baichuan are all members of the Central Executive Committee.

With this level of status, if Deputy Director Zuo goes to Gongdelin, he can live in a single room, and at least he will start as a high-ranking officer in the battle of Xiaomeishan.

Speaking of which, when Zuo Zhong joined the Secret Service, he automatically joined the Fruit Party. He paid a monthly fee and just fed it to the dog. He did not expect such an "unexpected surprise".

What's even more amazing is that Lao Dai has not joined the Fruit Party until now. The reason is very simple. He wants to be a "retainer" and serve as a "shadow" for someone wholeheartedly.

Therefore, when someone approves Zuo Zhong to become an alternate central governor, the deep meaning is worth savoring. I don’t know if it is a check and balance, or a plan for the future.

Dai Chunfeng didn't seem to mind at all that the student had a higher position in the party than him. Hearing Zuo Zhong's compliments, he waved his hand and made a joke.

"Okay, you can wait until you meet the chairman to say these things. No matter how much you talk here, you won't get promoted."

After saying that, he lowered his voice again: "Shenzhu, originally I wanted you to get the job done in one step, but I stopped you. You won't blame the teacher."

Lao Dai finally did something!

This was Zuo Zhong's true thought. If he really got it right in one step, it wouldn't be a promotion, it would be putting him on the fire.

There were so many military commanders and commanders who failed to become official members. He, a junior agent, became one and would probably be shot in the head within two days.

Next, the master and apprentice discussed the case for a while.

Dai Chunfeng said that the remaining enemies should be found as soon as possible. No matter whether they can be caught or not in two days, the blockade of the mountain city must be stopped because someone is under great pressure.

Many elders went to the official residence to complain, saying that spies were rampant and the generals were in ruins. In fact, it was delaying their efforts to make money.

At the end of the conversation, Lao Dai spoke abruptly and apologized for Li Qiwu, hoping that Zuo Zhong would not pay attention to all kinds of "false rumors" and would be united and friendly.

The teacher had said so. As a student, Zuo Zhong could say nothing. Naturally, he magnanimously said some nonsense such as "official business is the most important thing", and he didn't take Li Qiwu seriously at all.

Some people just don't understand that their existence is only for the stability of the situation and is not indispensable.

Once it is no longer useful, the mistakes that such people have made in the past will be revealed one by one, and they will eventually die without a burial place.

To be clear, intelligence work is not just a trick, it can be done by anyone. Baldhead and Dai Chunfeng still need his intelligence talent.

Under this general premise, as long as Zuo Zhong does not seek death, such as openly opposing the government or joining the underground party, Baldhead will not fall out.

What the superiors need is achievements. Talents and slaves have different statuses. People who don't understand this won't go far, so there's nothing to be afraid of.

downstairs.

While Master Zuo Zhong and Dai Chunfeng were chatting happily, Li Qiwu had already returned to his office with a gloomy face and sat down heavily on his chair.

The powerful Secretary to the Director of Military Command was silent for a moment, then with a low roar he swept away the items on the table, and the Desktop Cleaning Master came online again.

Originally, he wanted to use this incident to teach Zuo Zhong a lesson, but he didn't expect that the enemies who attacked the safe house were caught in less than a day. They were really a bunch of losers.

"Director, what are you doing?"

A middle-aged man with a middle-parted hair knocked on the door and came in. Looking at the mess on the ground, he had the courage to ask.

Seeing the visitor, Li Qiwu frowned slightly and forced out a smile: "It turns out to be Bu Ting. Come and sit down. I have something to discuss with you."

The person called Buting, whose full name is Qiu Buting, is the inspector general of the inspection room and Li Qiwu's important assistant and think tank within the military.

After hearing this, Qiu Buting picked up a few items, came to the table, put them down, and asked again what happened, looking a little worried.

Li Qiwu lit a cigarette and gritted his teeth and said: "The man named Zuo has captured someone. The target is dead and the other is captured. The code book is also recovered. What should we do next?"

Qiu Buting's pupils shrank. It had only been 24 hours since the crime occurred, and it had only been a dozen hours since Zuo Zhong got off the plane. Has the case been solved?

Although they haven't caught everyone yet, the codebook is safe, and the remaining enemies are just minor problems that won't affect the overall situation.

Damn it, how can we compete for the deputy director position?

The two of them sighed in unison, and the office became extremely quiet.

After thinking for a long time, Qiu Buting gave his opinion. The only solution for now was to wait until the remaining targets were caught or escaped, and they would make a decision based on the situation.

Li Qiwu nodded and patted the table hard, wishing he could find the enemy immediately and send him out of the mountain city himself.

Under Zuo Zhong's stimulation, Director Li was stunned.
