District 9

In Lin Yaozong's office in Yanbei, District 8, a young officer saluted and placed two copies of the investigation report on his desk.

"Did the Governor's Office ask for the investigation report on these two people?" Lin Yaozong picked up the report, looked down at it, and asked.

"Commander, I don't know about this." The young officer responded immediately.

These two investigation reports are public reports issued by the disciplinary department of the Eighth District and the First War Zone. They mainly investigate the issue of passive engagement of the two regiments that went to the Lu District to participate in the war.

After the small-scale military conflict in the Lu District ended, before the Sichuan government directly criticized the two regiments, the Eighth District had already launched a self-examination.

The contents of these two investigation reports show that the leaders of the two regiments, Wu Feng and Zhang Daming, refused to admit that they were passive in fighting. They explained in detail the military difficulty of attacking the Lu District, and also listed the "strong combat power" of the units of the Shaxuan Brigade, as well as the many problems their side encountered during the attack, and the specific offensive advancement time.

Judging from the content, it seems that there is nothing wrong with these two people, but they seem to be a little wronged.

The current solution given by the disciplinary department of the First War Zone is to continue in-depth investigation and temporarily conduct internal monitoring of Wu Feng and Zhang Daming. However, according to the disciplinary department's own judgment, there should be no possibility of these two people being incited to rebel.

After Lin Yaozong read the report, he raised his head and asked the young officer, "Were Wu Feng and Zhang Daming transferred back for questioning?"

"I inquired about it, and it turned out that they were sent directly to the two regiment headquarters by the first inspection team. They interrogated them for several hours. At the same time, they also randomly checked some core officers of the regiment. The answers given by everyone , there is basically no discrepancy." The young officer whispered back: "The Ministry of Internal Affairs should implement on-the-job supervision for the two of them."

Lin Yaozong threw the two investigation reports on the table expressionlessly.

"Commander, should I send these two investigation reports to the governor?" the young officer asked tentatively.

Lin Yaozong shook his head: "There is no need to send them. The governor must have obtained these two reports."

"Yes!" The young officer nodded.

"Well, you can go out." Lin Yaozong waved his hand.

The young officer saluted and quickly left the office.

Lin Yaozong stood up slowly, turned around and walked around the house to the window, looking out the window with his hands behind his back with a somewhat complicated mood.

The two regiments passively participated in the battle and staged a big drama on the battlefield, which made Lin Yaozong feel very bad. The problem is 100% not with the two regiment leaders themselves, and they simply do not dare to use this method to perfunctory the war.

Someone at the top has given instructions, but no one is sure what this instruction means and how large it is.

Are there people who are opposed to establishing a system now, or are there people who are simply opposed to him, Lao Lin, taking over the supreme power? Or maybe someone at the top has been incited to rebel, so they ordered these two regiments to protest by passively participating in the war?

What is the scale of protest?

Is it just to express dissatisfaction and put pressure on the governor's office, or do they want to overturn an institutional plan and even start a military conflict internally?

This point is very important. The two groups are just pawns, and the people or forces behind the scenes are the key. How many upper-level officials support passive participation in the war? Have they secretly formed a group? It is difficult to judge this information now, because District 8 looks very calm on the outside, no one misses the point, and no one jumps out to shout objections.

Lin Yaozong was very anxious. He wanted to know the source of the problem, but these two regiments were troops in the first war zone. They had their own internal disciplinary departments investigating, so he could not intervene abruptly.

…

Outside the Ludi border, within the defense area of ​​the Eighth District Combat Regiment, which is about 300 kilometers away.

Wu Feng was sitting in the regiment headquarters, stepped in and looked at Zhang Daming and asked: "Are He Dachuan's troops still stationed next to your regiment?"

"Yes." Zhang Daming gritted his teeth and cursed: "This bastard built two battalions and placed them next to the first battalion of our regiment. He also picked some movies that cursed traitors and engaged in spy wars every day and played them outdoors. His soldiers are also weird. They were watching the movie and booing."

"Old bandit, that's all." Wu Feng responded with a sneer: "Don't pay attention to him."

"I'm not worried about He Dachuan. The current era is so sensitive, and the upper management of the Sichuan government will definitely not dare to make trouble." Zhang Daming said in a low voice: "I'm afraid that our upper management won't be able to withstand the pressure, and will eventually push us out... "

"That won't happen. I've already asked, and there are clear instructions from above. If the investigation of this matter goes on endlessly, and the higher-ups need an explanation, then at best we will be characterized as a command error and a misjudgment of the battlefield situation, and at worst The result is that we are temporarily suspended for investigation." Wu Feng frowned and said: "But...but as soon as there is a change at the top, we will be reinstated immediately."

Zhang Daming blinked: "How is the old governor's health? There is no news at all now?!"

"It's not good. It's said that many of the upper-level generals can't see him now. The hospital has been under martial law. I guess it's just been in the past few months." Wu Feng replied.

Zhang Daming nodded and said nothing.

…

Inside the Eighth District Hospital.

Gu Tai'an sat on the hospital bed and read the two investigation reports. After a long silence, he said, "Let me inform Qin Yu and Lao Lin that I will hold a video conference with them in half an hour."

"Yes!" The adjutant waiting next to him nodded immediately.

After saying that, Gu Tai'an was helped out of bed, smoothed his slightly messy white hair with his old palms, and whispered: "Go... help me wash my face."

"Let me wipe it for you."

"Ahem!" Gu Tai'an coughed twice: "I haven't collapsed on the bed yet, I can wash it myself!"

…

About half an hour later, the conference call started.

Qin Yu sat in the headquarters and felt very uncomfortable looking at Governor Gu's appearance.

"...The two regiments passively participated in the war. This is not a big problem. The problem is...I...I am still here. People who have ideas in their hearts dare not let it slip." Gu Tai'an said softly: "Xiao Yu, you I have considered the plan. Although it is risky, for now... this is the most effective and fastest way. If Lao Lin is in charge and ensures that there will be no problems in District 9, things can still be operated. But this Details need to be added..."

Lu District border line.

He Dachuan stood at the entrance of the brigade, looking at the defense areas of the two regiments Wu Feng and Zhang Daming, and his teeth were itching with hatred.

Today, the brigade headquarters compiled the list of those who died in the last battle. The more He Dachuan looked at these two regiments, the more angry he became.

…

Four districts.

After He Chong finished discussing with Xue Huaili, he called Li Bokang: "We agree with your proposal."
