District 9

On the second day of the temporary truce, outside Nanhu City, inside Chen Jun's headquarters.

"Did you call me back?" Chen Jun asked sitting on the chair.

"Come back, Commander-in-Chief, just four words, see you in the city." The communications officer responded.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Chen Jun generals in the war room looked at each other with unsightly expressions.

"Commander-in-Chief, I personally do not recommend that you enter the city." The chief of staff immediately said: "At least you cannot enter the city now. At least you have to wait until the coalition forces from Jiujiang pull out and arrive at Nanhu City before you can meet... him."

"Yes." Another army commander also frowned and said, "We are still talking about whether this call back is the old commander's instruction. You rush into the city rashly. What will happen if something goes wrong?"

"Yes, our situation is very different from that of the Alliance." A thin staff member next to him also echoed the advice: "Both the old commander and the Zhou Department have certain hopes in defending the southern battlefield. , and you are not Meng Xi... There are probably many people in Nanhu City who want your life."

Chen Jun naturally knew what everyone meant, but after hesitating for a while, he still frowned and replied: "Do you know why the coalition forces will be stationed in Jiujiang for three days?"

Everyone was silent.

"This is the time Xiao Yu gave me." Chen Jun whispered: "If Nanhu can open the city gate within three days, then this battle will not need to be fought; if it cannot be opened, then the 200,000 coalition troops will continue to advance. The drama of burning Jiujiang will definitely happen in Nanhu."

When everyone heard this, they all agreed in their hearts, because Qin Yu's attitude towards Chen Xi was obviously different from that of the Alliance.

To put it simply, the Alliance Council is an internal issue in the Eighth District. They provoked a war, which is the nature of rebellion. For example, if the old governor has appointed Gu Yan as the successor of the Gu family, then if you don't accept it, you are going against the old governor's decision; for example, if the Eighth District has appointed Lin Yaozong as the governor, then if you don't obey the command, you are going against the government.

But the Chen family is different. From beginning to end, they have only had an alliance, not a subordinate relationship with Sichuan Mansion and the Eighth District.

For example, the three parties are like people who started a business together. However, in the middle of the process, the Chen family became dissatisfied with the distribution of benefits and other issues, so they decided to quit and go it alone, and became competitive with the Sichuan government and the Eighth District. Then the two sides started fighting. , from an objective point of view, it is best to say that people who are different do not work together, rather than who they rebelled against, because the Chen system itself is an independent individual.

This is why Qin Yu is now willing to give Chen Xi a chance instead of actually going to war with him.

From Chen Zhongren's point of view, he is one of the leaders of the Seventh District. Before the Eighth District was unified, he already had hundreds of thousands of soldiers and armor, and he could truly be regarded as a prince.

So now we need to build a system, which will not only reduce the Chen clan's vassals in the future, but also push Lin Yaozong, who was previously weaker than the Chen clan, to come to power, so that Chen Zhongren can completely obey his command. Well...the latter's inner imbalance and dissatisfaction are actually quite normal in terms of human nature.

It is certainly great and worthy of praise to fight for a lifetime for the rise of a region, but among the three regions, among the older generation, Gu Tai'an is actually the only one who has such courage and vision. Because not only did he say it, but he actually did it despite a lot of resistance.

But not everyone can have Gu Tai'an's ideas and ambitions!

Many people are not exempt from vulgarity. It is normal for them to have ideas and ambitions when facing the supreme power.

Therefore, Qin Yu did not agree with Chen Zhongren's actions in terms of national morality, but in terms of human nature, he could understand him. Because Qin Yu's current position also vaguely touches the supreme power, he knows how tempting that position is.

In terms of political interests, Qin Yu believed that he had never been ashamed of anyone. The Sichuan government did receive help from many parties in the early days, but in recent years, Qin Yu has also given back to all parties one by one.

Commander Zhou of the Ninth District once helped Qin Yu, and not directly, but after the Ninth District was defeated, Qin Yu gave up the position of governor to the other party. You must know that Sichuan Mansion was the absolute main force in this battle. At that time, many people in the outside world believed that Qin Yu wanted Long to return to his hometown and take over the throne. However, they did not expect that after the battle, he turned around and returned to Sichuan Mansion.

Regarding the Eighth District, due to the help Gu Yan gave Qin Yu in the early stage, the latter actively responded to the Battle of Conglong not long after Sichuan Mansion was stabilized. At that time, Gu Xi was at a disadvantage, and Qin Yu almost lost his important capital at that time.

Has the favor been returned?

Very thorough! This is why Lao Gu admires this latecomer so much. He is courageous, dares to make bets, is decisive, and knows how to be grateful.

Treat Chen Xi,

Chen Jun did point out the way for Qin Yu during several critical periods.

Therefore, later on on Dayan Island and Da Lao Sanjiang, even though Chen Xi did not exert much force, Qin Yu still divided the cake according to the three forces, never giving less points to Chen Xi and treating his brother Jun badly. And because of Qin Yu's network, after the Chen clique fell into a disadvantage in District 7, the Sichuan government has always provided absolute support to the opponent in terms of military.

Also, after the last attack on Jiujiang, the Sichuan army withdrew after the city was captured, and Qin Yu handed over the entire main city to the Chen clan. The Chen faction used this as a threat to Zhou Xingli and gained many key positions in the military and political circles in Nanhu and Jiujiang.

Therefore, Qin Yu does not owe any power when it comes to alliance relations. Although he often used a joking tone to get money from Chen Jun and ask for military expenses, it was just a drop in the bucket compared to the transfer of big interests.

However, although there was no debt in terms of benefits, Qin Yu still did not want to get into a life-and-death situation with Chen Xi emotionally. After all, there is a handsome guy in the middle. If the coalition forces really penetrate the main city of Nanhu, there will be a lot of death... Then Meng Xi will definitely raise the butcher's knife again and kill those who deserve to be killed.

And what should Chen Jun do then? Can he watch his relatives being slaughtered?

Therefore, Qin Yu and Chen Jun have a tacit understanding on this matter. As long as the Chen clique is willing to open the gate to Nanhu... it will be a relief for both sides, as well as for hundreds of thousands of soldiers and tens of millions of people.

…

Based on the above reasons, Chen Jun did not want to delay it any longer. He was afraid that after three days, Qin Yu would not be able to come down to Taiwan, and if he really sent troops to Nanhu, everything might be too late by then.

For this reason, Chen Jun, who has always been rational, finally made the decision to go to the city.

After the generals' efforts to dissuade him failed, at around ten o'clock that night, seven or eight cars secretly sneaked in from the direction of Nanhu Port. At this time, Chen Jun's chief of staff was always in contact with Chen Zhongren's headquarters, and strictly controlled the news of Chen Jun's entry into the city to prevent anyone in the city from doing dirty things.

But even so, Chen Jun's convoy was still attacked after entering Nanhu.

Four RPG rounds were fired from outside the street cordon, directly destroying Chen Jun's car. A fire broke out, and the people in the car were not sure whether they were alive or dead...
