Longmen Memoirs

He took into account Longmen's intricate network of interests, Wei Yanwu's purpose, the Sakaz people's unfamiliarity with Longmen, and the complex geographical environment of Xiacheng District and Abandoned City District that could narrow the gap between the two sides. Strength is by no means a match for the Sakaz mercenaries, but they have more to learn about Longmen, and they have more advantages.

Fortunately, Chen Mo didn't want to occupy this city.

He just wants to give his dear Mr. Wei a meeting gift. You said Mr. Wei that you have been shrinking for so long, waiting and watching, and weighing.

You must think that I am not qualified to be in the same position as you. You are still as arrogant as ever. After all, you have always been superior.

Therefore, I will not stand in front of you empty-handed, because you will think that my words are unwarranted, and you always have to see them to believe them. I cannot stand in front of you without my words.

I'm waiting for you to come.

Chapter 35 innings

Wei Yanwu didn't know what Chen Mo was thinking.

Because he is now dealing with two adults from the Yan Kingdom who appear in front of him.

The figure in red robe was the mysterious man who discovered Mud Rock and the others in the abandoned city area a day ago.

The inspector of the Dali Temple Supervision Department of the Yan State, to be more precise, is the government official sent by the Yan State to Longmen to inspect the rulers of Longmen and evaluate Longmen.

However, unlike other mobile cities belonging to the Yan Kingdom, the two inspectors in front of them are responsible for monitoring local areas and officials, but they also have other missions.

Dali Temple is the judicial institution of the Yan Kingdom. Together with the Ministry of Punishment and the Suzheng Yuan, it is collectively known as the Third Division, which is responsible for investigating and hearing cases. Among the important cases of the Yan Kingdom in the world, in recent decades, the most eye-catching ones are undoubtedly those in the capital. In that turmoil, more than a dozen officials of all sizes in the empire were implicated, ranging from the Censor of Youdu in Yushitai, to the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, to the Imperial Military Honors, Yuan Cong Imperial Guards, Imperial Chamberlains, City Gate Guards, and Sima of the Fifth Military Governor's Office. Officials, even the fast-shift policemen and city guards under the Jingzhao Yin Mansion.

The unsolved case implicated thousands of people, and was eventually settled on the grounds that the eldest son of the former Jin'an Marquis, Zuo Xiaowei's deputy commander, was guilty of treason and collaborating with the enemy, and that the Jin'an Marquis had his house confiscated and his title was confiscated.

No one knows exactly what happened, and no one knows why the Chen Mansion, which was originally the deputy commander of the [-]th Guards and [-]st Army in Beijing and had a promising future and attracted much attention, suddenly collapsed overnight.

But if you know, the person sitting in a high position in the palace must know, and Wei Yanwu also knows.

He had been waiting for this day for more than ten years, and it finally came.

Wei Yanwu's thoughts calmed down slightly.

He listened to the inspector telling him that a large group of Sakaz people had been found in the abandoned city of Longmen, so Wei Yanwu's face showed just the right amount of surprise.

"This...is it true?"

"Master Wei doesn't know?"

"I really don't know when such a group of Sakaz came to Longmen. What is their purpose? No matter what their purpose is, this group of Sakaz people sneaking into Longmen quietly must have a purpose." Wei Yanwu said in surprise, looking in front of him The two imperial inspectors said: "Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Inspectors. I wonder how you two discovered this group of Sakaz people?"

"I have been investigating the reasons for the rumors in the lower city from all over Longmen, and I accidentally discovered traces of these people." The inspector replied in a deep voice.

"Is it related to these people?"

"We can't be sure yet," the inspector said, and then asked, "I wonder what Mr. Wei is going to do when he comes down?"

"Of course we can't let it go." Wei Yanwu said resolutely: "No matter why these people appear in Longmen, since they have bypassed Longmen's supervision, of course the Guard Bureau must control them to avoid harming Longmen, but Starting from this point, since you two have had contact with these people, what are their strengths?"

"According to our judgment, this group of Sakaz has an unknown number, an unknown purpose, is very well-equipped, and has well-founded behavior. It should have received formal training and has a tacit understanding of cooperation. We had a brief battle with them and their combat power was impressive."

"Oh, compared to the Guards Bureau?"

"If it were to fight alone and have a small-scale conflict, it is expected that the Guards Bureau would not be the opponent, but this is the Dragon Gate. The Sakaz people have no support and are isolated. If the Guards Bureau takes action in advance, they may not be able to control them in the lower city. To prevent the battlefield from expanding and flowing into the city, endangering the safety of Longmen."

"That is to say, the Guard Bureau must take action first." Wei Yanwu frowned and sighed: "According to what you said, if these Sarkarz are allowed to flow into the city, it will inevitably cause greater harm. The Health Bureau needs to control them before they act."

"But if the Guards Bureau takes action first, will it cause a backlash from these Sakaz? What if it intensifies them and is counterproductive, allowing these people to rush into the city in advance and expand the situation?"

"This matter involves the stability of Longmen, but in our opinion, instead of sitting back and waiting for death, we should attack first. Mr. Wei should make a decision early on."

"Well..." Wei Yanwu fell silent. "I will arrange for an inspection team to handle this matter."

"In that case, I'll take my leave first."

The inspector bent down to salute and left slowly.

Wei Yanwu looked at the inspector who was slowly leaving. He knew that the time had come.

------

June 1090, 4, Crystalline Era

20:19 PM/Office of the Chief Executive of Longmen

"Already prepared?"

Wei Yanwu looked at the heavily armed police officers from the Guards Bureau standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows and asked without looking back.

The people standing behind him looked at his back and raised their hands in salute.

"Yes, sir, as per your instructions, the members of the special inspection team and 200 police officers are ready and have been deployed on three suspected suspects on the road in District 11, District No. 13, and District No. [-]. location, the drone will depart at the same time as your fleet to ensure timely receipt of information.”

"At the same time, because a large number of police forces have been deployed into Xiacheng District, in the eyes of the outside world, the number of people accompanying your convoy will be reduced accordingly, to show that the Guards Bureau currently lacks police forces."

"After you board the vehicle, we will replace your vehicle when passing through the tunnel in District [-], but..." He paused: "Sir, with all due respect, I think your move is too risky. If the other party is surprised, Appearing in front of Area [-] will be very dangerous given the configuration of your fleet.”

The police officer standing in front of him is the current leader of the Special Inspection Team of the Longmen Guards Bureau, and one of Wei Yanwu's most capable and trusted confidants. The terms of membership of this organization generally do not exceed two years. Out of concern for the lives of police officers, Protection, or to reduce the possibility of mistakes caused by their accumulated pressure. This position is not suitable for long-term stay. Heroic sacrifice in the mission is almost the consistent outcome of all members of the old inspection team.

"Do you think they will appear in front of the Sixth District?" Wei Yanwu turned around and looked directly at the police officer in front of him. He should be looking straight at him, but it gave him a condescending and oppressive feeling.

But faced with this kind of oppression, the inspection team leader in front of him could only raise his head bravely.

"That possibility is not ruled out."

"How are the preparations of the picket team and the security department?" Wei Yanwu asked.

"Most of the spies hidden in the Guards Bureau have been identified."

"Then there's no need to wait. The members of the picket team will take action immediately after we set off." Wei Yanwu put his hands behind his back. "Has Superintendent Qin of the special task force sent back a report?"

"The report sent back by Sir Qin shows that members of the Xiacheng District Special Task Force have been dispersed in every corner of Xiacheng District. Once the operation begins, they will quickly block the streets, announce a curfew, and set up checkpoints. At the same time, they have organized manpower to prepare to block the entrances and exits of each block."

"very good."

A satisfied arc slowly appeared at the corner of Wei Yanwu's mouth, he retracted his sharp gaze, and walked towards the door past the leader of the inspection team in front of him.

"Then let's begin—"

Chapter 36 Stories

[This story is not long for me. It can be summed up in four words: Love cannot be obtained. 】

------

This is the first meeting between Fox and Seria. There is not much exchange between the two parties. When facing other people, whether they are strangers or acquaintances, Fox can be easy-going and natural. Her smile is polite and polite. He can't find a fault and never shows his true feelings on his face.

No one knew what she was thinking, except that the police officer from the Guards seemed easy to get along with.

Seria didn't like this smile very much. The fox's smile reminded her of those government officials in the federal municipal secretariat. They usually wore this kind smile when they came into contact with the Rheinland Life Cooperation, but once you know them When you see the true thoughts behind this kind face, you will suddenly feel that this smile makes you feel hypocritical and disgusting.

But once you get used to it, you can get used to it.

Seria is such a person, an almost impeccable security department director, social practitioner, and executive of a large company. In her rich resume and career, she has come into contact with all kinds of people. People, some are kind, some are upright, some are arrogant, and some are hypocritical.

Seria is very good at dealing with these people. This is one of the results of her long-term training. After seeing too much, her vision will inevitably become more precise and tricky.

What I have to admit is that if Chen Mo had changed his collaborators and he had not found Seria but someone else, he might not have achieved the results he has achieved now. Seria is really an outstanding person with excellent abilities in all aspects. Considered excellent.

Her analysis and control of the situation in various countries, her familiarity with various channels within the federation, her rich experience and complex social network are enough for her to, with the support of her basic base, lead a federation that is mostly composed of infected people and The GM company formed by his relatives maintains a stable situation.

Fox's more than 20 years of experience and experience are still lacking compared to Seria. It is better to say that she and Seria are not the same kind of people. The business scope and interpersonal relationships that Seria handles are broader and more complex than hers. , and Fox, she is just an ordinary inspector of the Guards Bureau. She has spent most of her life in the city of Longmen, even though she is responsible for dealing with the darkest area of ​​Longmen, even though she has Amazing talent and adaptability, but she still lacks too much.

Sometimes age does not represent a person's growth, but most of the time, people's growth cannot avoid the growth of time. Time gives people the experience of increasing their knowledge and experience in the interactions with various people and things, and once these things accumulate , which is what ordinary people call growing up.

The reason why the elderly are respected and know more is very simple. They have experienced too much, experienced ups and downs that young people have never experienced, and experienced failures that young people have never experienced, so they naturally consider More and more, their passion has cooled down, leaving behind the precipitation and stability polished by years and years.

They will not suddenly become hot-headed and do something unrealistic with integrity, nor will they risk everything for an illusory fantasy.

They have expectations and hopes for young people, and they should not hope that they will take the same path as themselves. However, it is undeniable that after they were bowed by reality and retreated, young people have moved forward indomitably and their bravery and enthusiasm are still enough to move even weather-beaten people.

It is precisely because they have experienced their own withdrawal, and it is precisely because they have faced the same thing and chose to give up, that there is no shortage of buried fantasies in their long-cooled hearts, and a trace of enthusiasm that has never cooled down. .

Just like Wei Yanwu who died many years ago, and also like the Wendigo who wandered on the snowy frozen soil for many years due to repentance.

They have overcome the passion and mistakes of their youth, and it is hard to come back.

There is no saying that this land is lost and regained.

The Guards Bureau's action on Xiacheng District was faster than expected. The Guards Bureau officers, who were ready to go, established a layer-by-layer blockade between the main traffic roads from Districts 22 to 26 and the abandoned city amid the roar of police cars. Police cars with loudspeakers traveled through the streets of Xiacheng District, prohibiting any citizen or infected person from appearing on the streets of Xiacheng District.

Firefighters from the Fire Department have been on standby at more than a dozen locations in the Lower City under the deployment of the Guards Bureau.

With the help of drones, the sky over the entire downtown area was blocked. The once noisy streets were now silent. In the silence, the flashes of police cars overwhelmed the dim street lights, illuminating the old buildings and streets on both sides.

The reason why the Guard Bureau did this is simple: to control the surging situation in the lower city to avoid a recurrence of the riots similar to those more than ten years ago.

Reporters from major newspapers and TV stations, after smelling the big news, all blocked the door of the Guards Bureau building. The originally bustling Pacific Place and Armory Street were almost surrounded by large and small news interview vehicles, hung with industrial equipment. The reporters and paparazzi frantically blocked every entrance and exit of the Guards Bureau building.

More spotlights and film were used on this night than in the past ten years combined. The prosperous city of Longmen has not been so lively for a long time.

News practitioners have long been tired of the petty quarrels of the Guards Bureau over the years, and now, as if they have been given a shot of chicken blood, they have finally rediscovered the blood and passion that surged in their veins when they were young.

Thanks to these people, even the sales of nearby fast food stores increased a lot this night. There were people everywhere carrying coffee, hanging cameras, leaning against the car, smoking, or eating. The reporters stared eagerly at the latest developments in the Guards Bureau.

Journalists from big industries were naturally invited into the Guards Bureau building to wait for the press conference held by the relevant person in charge of the propaganda department. However, reporters from small industries did not have such great ability and convenience, so they had to show their talents. , there are also quite a few who even want to use connections to get in, or pretend to be police officers and staff of the Guards Bureau to sneak in. The latter will naturally be cleared out and wait for charges from the Guards Bureau, and the former, if there are really Maybe let them in, but now, today's Guards Bureau is much more strict than before.

Rich people, wealthy businessmen, big capitalists and entrepreneurs in the upper city, people who have close ties with the Guards Bureau and have a place in Longmen are waiting for the Guards Bureau to give a reasonable explanation for today's changes.

Wei Yanwu caught everyone by surprise. No one expected that the Guards Bureau would move so quickly. They vaguely guessed that it was related to the rumors in Xiacheng District during this period, but it was probably not to this extent in the eyes of smart people.

No one knows what Wei Yanwu is paying attention to. The movements and attitudes of this Longmen ruler have always been the focus of these big shots, and there are many people who don't have much favorable impressions of Wei Yanwu.

Wei Yanwu used his tough tactics and policies to gain a foothold in Longmen, but governing the city has never been about killing and killing. These shrewd politicians and speculative businessmen are best at using soft knives to sharpen people. They can always think of various ways to punish people. You add obstacles, and if you want to maintain your rule in Longmen, you have to learn to make compromises and concessions at the appropriate time.

Longmen is a prosperous city. Its prosperity is not based on plunder or war. Its prosperity is based on the influx of countless capital and trade nodes, and on the countless companies and organizations that come to this city from various countries to develop. Corporate and business connections circulate.

Over the years, as the city's economy continues to prosper, Longmen's influence has grown, and at the same time, the various capital markets and interaction networks entrenched in Longmen have become increasingly complex.

As a result, everyone was imprisoned within the huge and cumbersome rules and regulations based on the large mobile city of Longmen.

I don’t know how many times the number of the Supreme Chief’s Office was dialed tonight, but unfortunately, every person who thought they were qualified to call to inquire or test was in vain due to the polite and appropriate response of the Secretariat police officer. And return.

Wei Yanwu was not in the Guards Bureau building. Now that such a big change had occurred, he suddenly seemed to have disappeared, and no one could find his whereabouts.

His itinerary is highly confidential.

So the callers had no choice but to give up on getting relevant clues from this angle, but this does not mean that they will give up. How many of them are behind Longmen's newspapers? They control the city's public opinion and entertainment. Industry, and this is the only thing that can compete with Wei Yanwu, who holds military power and government power. Wei Yanwu is also willing to hand these over to their hands, because he needs the stability of Longmen. He has never been a soft-hearted person, but he Longmen needs stability, and on this basis, he is willing to make a certain degree of concessions.

In Xiacheng District, spies and personnel belonging to various organizations and companies began to rush toward Xiacheng District in unison. They wanted to know what Wei Yanwu was doing.

The movements of these people were monitored by the Security Department and Special [+|

Police officers from the Special Task Force of the Guards Bureau blocked the bridge. There were many police cars on the bridge. Intercepting nets and raised barriers blocked the bridge that connects the two sides. This is the closest bridge to Xiacheng District. There are three bridges in Longmen, and the name of this bridge is Hui Ho.

The pale light of the searchlight patrolled the dark river, and the cold steel shone with a cold light. On the river below, yachts from the Guard Bureau were constantly coming and going, and police patrols were deployed at every node to prevent anyone from crossing the river.

Raising troops and mobilizing a large number of people is not enough to describe this operation of the Guards Bureau. It also fell in the eyes of interested people and had to arouse their vigilance. If it weren't for Wei Yanwu who wanted to take this opportunity in Xiacheng District to declare force to the political and business circles of Longmen?

Otherwise, why would there be such a big show just for a mere rumor in the lower city area?

At the same time, in the Guards Bureau building, the temporary speech draft had been prepared, and the superintendent of the propaganda department seriously adjusted the collar of the police uniform in front of major reporters and media.

Faced with all kinds of questioning looks, and with all kinds of recorders and notepads in his hands, the old superintendent, who has been in the propaganda department for nearly twenty years and has been with Wei Yanwu since the establishment of the Guards Bureau, remained calm and unperturbed. He hurriedly took a sip of water.

He read the boring speech in his hand, and after reading it, he made a summary with his own characteristics.

"As for the Guard Bureau's action tonight, I can only give you four words: no comment."

Stunned, there was silence, and a pen fell to the ground.

What followed was a series of embarrassing expressions that made every reporter feel as if he had eaten something and wanted to vomit but couldn't bear it.

Xiacheng District, in front of the blockade in District 22.

Fox had already changed into a uniform of the Inspector of the Guards Bureau. The police card hanging on her chest showed Fox's serious and serious expression, which was almost exactly the same as her current appearance.

She did not receive any more orders from Commander Wei. It seemed that starting from tonight, the action team and the team members who were usually responsible for maintaining contact had forgotten about her. However, the Guards Bureau did not clear out the information she left in the bureau. Information, although she seems to have been abandoned, she is still a police officer of the Guards Bureau.

Fox knows more about today's operation of the Guards Bureau than Chen Mo. In addition to the command center in the Guards Bureau building, not surprisingly, there will also be an on-site command system responsible for controlling such large scenes, and Fox The only people I can think of who are capable of regulating and deploying operations of this level are the inspection team.

They are the elite among the police officers of the Guard Bureau. Apart from the special operations group that is now little-known, they are almost the most elite police force in Longmen. No matter in terms of ability or mentality, the police officers inside are all The top talents who have gone through Longmen's most rigorous selection process are drawn from various departments.

The Guards Bureau is not an army, so it cannot block all information like the army. Of course, those reporters who are stuck behind the blockade and messing around as reporters, claiming the right to know, will make the police officers of the Guards Bureau miserable. If Who the police are least willing to deal with is undoubtedly the people in front of them.

Their sense of smell is sharper than that of sharks, they move as fast as dogs, but they are more confident, and they are more annoying than flies. Fortunately, foxes often don't have to deal with these people, and in the action group, they don't have too high a bottom line.

"Your situation reminds me of the way the federal investigators looked when they faced reporters in Colombia."

The voice beside me sounded.
