spooky invasion

This news gave General Zeng a huge shock, but it also posed a huge problem for him.

Yang Xiangchun is an official under several giants in the Central South Region, and he is also the leader of the Central South Region's support to the West Frontier Region.

Such a person, how much influence does he have on the entire team in the Central South Region, and how many people in it are with him?

These are all issues that must be taken into account.

Regarding the situation of the team in the Central South Region, General Zeng also knew something about it before.Except for the team from Star City, the teams from other cities in the Central South Region were all gathered together, led by Yang Xiangchun, and took the same plane.

So, how many teams in these cities have been infiltrated by Yang Xiangchun?How many teams are even selected by Yang Xiangchun?

Is it just these few people in Hengcheng for him to drive?

General Zeng's forehead twitched for a while, and at the same time secretly called out luck.Fortunately, this general attack is still in the preparation stage.If this is launched rashly, with so many undercover agents hidden in the team, I am afraid that the general attack plan will be greatly affected, and it may even be sabotaged by others, thus falling short of success.

Originally, the center requested all major regions across the country to form a rescue team, in order to avoid too much intervention from the Western Territory region.

Because the situation in the West Frontier region is complicated, no one can tell how far it has been infiltrated by the strange tree.

Therefore, the center's big plan to help this time is actually to try to avoid this potential danger as much as possible.

But it was never expected that the agent of the strange tree was lurking in the rescue team.

And this lurking person is actually of such a high level.

General Zeng had a headache and asked his subordinates to provide a list of the whereabouts and distribution of all the troops.He had to figure out where the support teams from various cities in the Central South Region had gone.

After reading the list, General Zeng frowned slightly.

The list showed that about half of the teams in the Central South region followed Jiang Yue to Yuncheng.

Considering Jiang Yue's overwhelming victory in the battle of Yuncheng, the group of people following Jiang Yue should have no major problems.

Could it be that the teams in the cities in the Central South Region have not been infiltrated by Yang Xiangchun on a large scale?Is he just some of the people who infiltrated Hengcheng's team?

Thinking about it this way, General Zeng himself felt a little too optimistic.

With Yang Xiangchun's scheming, he had no reason to just manipulate those few people in Hengcheng.In the Central South Region team, there must be others who were manipulated by Yang Xiangchun.After all, Yang Xiangchun intervened in the selection of candidates in various cities in the Central South Region.

It can be said that, except for the Xingcheng team, which is completely decided by Xingcheng independently, the teams in other cities have more or less been raised by Yang Xiangchun.

Of course, some places have listened, and some places will always stick to their own views, such as Hongcheng.

General Zeng knew that the people in Hongcheng didn't buy Yang Xiangchun's account, and the leader of the team, Xiong Yan, didn't particularly like Yang Xiangchun.

The Hongcheng team selected people, and had some disputes with the district for this.Because when Xiong Yan selected candidates, he insisted on his own opinion.Either let him choose, or don't let him lead the team.

Even if Xiong Yan's status in Hongcheng was not as good as that of Jiang Yue in Xingcheng, it was not too far behind.

Since he was asked to lead the team, Hongcheng had to respect his opinion.Because of this, the people selected by the Hongcheng team were basically selected by Xiong Yan.Even Yang Xiangchun couldn't get his hands on it at all.

Because of this, the relationship between Yang Xiangchun and Xiong Yan has always been delicate.I have some opinions on Xiong Yan, although there is no tear on the surface, there are more or less beatings on the Hongcheng team along the way.

Of course, Xiong Yan himself has a thorny personality, he doesn't like Yang Xiangchun at all.Whenever Yang Xiangchun is unreasonable, Xiong Yan will definitely stand up.

That's why Jiang Yue became the executive director, and after Yang Xiangchun lost the election, Xiong Yan would be so excited that he must follow Jiang Yue to Yuncheng.

Without him, Xiong Yan had already seen through the journey that Yang Xiangchun was not the one to do such a big thing at all.He didn't show the gesture of fighting against the weird tree trunk at all.

Even if, Yang Xiangchun's words are very pleasant, very righteous.But Xiong Yan just didn't believe Yang Xiangchun in his bones.

General Zeng has studied the information on the Central South Region for a long time.

He circled out some teams that could not rule out the risk one by one.

If these teams are really impure, then they must not be allowed to participate in the general attack.Even if most of the people inside are innocent, maybe there are only a few undercover agents.

But this general attack plan, even if an undercover agent is mixed in, it may make them lose everything.

The human camp really can't afford this risk.

General Zeng still has another tangled point.

Do you want to tell Li Yuntao, Deputy Commander Li, this news?

Veteran Song sent the news to him alone out of careful consideration.He also gave this option to someone Zeng.

Whether or not to discuss with Li Yuntao is up to him or someone else to decide.

Of course, General Zeng can also understand this.

He is the commander-in-chief of this operation, and all major decisions, whether right or wrong, must be made by him.

General Zeng understood Elder Song's worries.

The strange tree has flooded to this point, and every person in the West Frontier Region is not innocent.Everyone has a responsibility.

Of course, General Zeng believed that Deputy Commander Li Yuntao should be innocent.

The Central Committee has finalized him, and if they trust him so much, they must have conducted strict investigations and unannounced visits. After several inspections of Li Yuntao, the identity of the deputy commander-in-chief was finalized.

Therefore, General Zeng was convinced that Li Yuntao should be clean and had not been dragged into the water by the weird tree.

In fact, General Zeng also had to trust Li Yuntao.

Now one of the six executive directors has died, and the others are all performing tasks in various places, and only the two of them are the commander-in-chief.

When encountering such an important matter, he had to discuss it with Deputy Commander Li Yuntao.

Li Yuntao was notified that Commander Zeng invited him to drink.

This made Li Yuntao a little surprised. Although there is no explicit order not to drink alcohol during working hours, it seems to be a norm these days.

This time, General Zeng went out of his way to buy a drink?
Li Yuntao came to General Zeng in a daze.

"Hehe, Lao Li, here we come. Isn't it a bit unexpected?" General Zeng greeted Li Yuntao to take his seat.

It is now noon, which itself is lunch time.General Zeng prepared some small dishes, but he didn't know where to get a bottle of good wine.

"General Zeng, these days, it's just the two of us who make such a good wine? Isn't it a bit extravagant?"

"Hehe, it's rare for us to be rich once. Just this bottle, there is no more. Don't blame your old Li for not drinking properly."

"If you say that, you've really hooked my wine bug." Li Yuntao was not polite, pulled the chair over, and sat down on it.

There were only two people in the room, and General Zeng poured the wine himself.

It was more like a private occasion, and Li Yuntao was more relaxed, watching General Zeng fill up the wine with a smile, and the two touched each other happily.

Zi Liu took a sip, the mellow aroma of the wine was beautiful from the tongue to the throat, and from the throat to the heart.

Cozy.

This wine, even in the sunshine era, is the top wine in the country.

"Old Li, how is the list of executive directors drafted?" General Zeng put down his glass and asked with a smile.

Li Yuntao put down the cup calmly, and took out a piece of A4 paper from his pocket with a smile.

"I knew you were going to ask this. I have temporarily drawn up a list. Take a look at who is good, who is not, and who else needs to be added. You are the commander-in-chief, and you have to make up your mind in the end."

Li Yuntao's work is solid and well-organized.

During this period of time, the joint command team also discovered that only six executive directors were not enough.What's more, one has been sacrificed now.

Therefore, they decided to add twelve more executive directors as the second batch of supplementary reserves. As the front advances, these additional executive directors will be replaced at any time.

General Zeng glanced at the list and found that Yang Xiangchun's name was at the top of the list.

It can be seen from this that when Li Yuntao drew up this list, the first person that Li Yuntao thought of must be Yang Xiangchun.

But this is also reasonable.

After all, the leaders of the various districts and several others have become executive directors, and Yang Xiangchun, the unlucky one, was not elected and was replaced by the team leader of Star City under him.

Since the list of executive directors was to be added, it was reasonable for Yang Xiangchun to be considered first.

As for the other rosters, some of them are the leaders of the support team, and some of them are the best of all teams in the Western Frontier Region.

Most of the names on this list are known and recognized by General Zeng.

Li Yuntao saw General Zeng looking at the list and pondered, and asked: "Commander, is there anything wrong with the list? You dare to criticize."

"Hehe, criticism is too serious. But this Yang Xiangchun..."

"Yang Xiangchun is the leader of the Central South Region, and he was the first to make an addition. Does the commander-in-chief think it's inappropriate?" Li Yuntao never imagined that the first question raised by the commander-in-chief was actually Yang Xiangchun?
How did he know that General Zeng deliberately mentioned Yang Xiangchun in order to judge Li Yuntao's reaction.

Seeing that Li Yuntao didn't react with any surprise or subtlety, he did not hesitate to explain to Yang Xiangchun, and the content of the explanation was out of common sense considerations.

This test made General Zeng even more convinced that Li Yuntao would be fine, at least he was definitely not in the same league as Yang Lichun.

Otherwise, when he was asked by someone, Li Yuntao's reaction would be more or less subtle.Even if it is a brief hesitation and surprise.

"It's not that I think it's inappropriate. I'm just worried. If he wasn't selected for the first time, will he harbor resentment later and simply stop accepting the additional quota? Yang Xiangchun is a person with a high spirit, right?"

Li Yuntao smiled and nodded, deeply agreeing: "Yes, he is indeed a bit high-minded. This time he was replaced by a young man. It's hard to say whether he will blame us for operating in secret. But we are dedicated to the public. As an old official, he will always have the awareness to promote the virtuous for the country? If he is not obedient, it would be too inappropriate."

General Zeng nodded noncommittally, and suddenly asked, "Do you know much about Yang Xiangchun? What do you think of him?"

Li Yuntao was slightly taken aback, thinking that General Zeng had already accepted Yang Xiangchun's position, but unexpectedly, he still had doubts?
Otherwise, I would never have asked so carefully.

"Commander, do you look down on Yang Xiangchun?"

General Zeng said with a smile, "I want to hear your opinion."

"From the overall situation, he is the leader of the Central South Region. If he does not enter the supplementary list, we will definitely offend him, and even offend the entire Central South Region. The West Frontier Region and the Central South Region are adjacent to each other, and they are originally friendly neighbors. Relationship. I personally think that some of his previous actions were indeed inappropriate, but this time it is really not appropriate to exclude him from the list.”

"Lao Li, how much do you know about the fighting spirit of Hengcheng and Xingcheng?"

"Everyone knows, I should know. Yang Xiangchun's situation in this matter is a bit questionable. He wanted to suppress the Star City team so much that it caused a series of farces and even casualties. A giant, he must have beaten him in private, right? During this period of time, I heard that he is still very obedient and very low-key. He didn't say anything bad about the Star City team, so he probably restrained himself a bit, right?"

"Then do you know why Yang Xiangchun has a special opinion on the Star City team? He wants to suppress them?"

"I've heard some gossip. When Yang Xiangchun was young, he chased a woman with Star City's leader, Han Yiyang, who is now the wife of Star City's leader Han Yiyang. The love scene failed, and Yang Xiangchun has always held a grudge against Han Yiyang. Naturally, he has resistance to the Star City team. And Han Yiyang, who is in charge of the Star City, also applied to the Central South Region, specially approving the Star City team not to be led by Yang Xiangchun. After such a back and forth, the conflict probably did not ease, but continued to deepen. And the team deputy of the Star City team, Han Jingjing, is also Han Yiyang's daughter ..."

Sure enough, there is nothing new under the sun.

It was originally a very secret matter, but when one reaches a certain position in the officialdom, these secret matters will become an open secret.

The reason Li Yuntao said made the conflict between Yang Xiangchun and the Star City team appear to have a perfect causal logic.

General Zeng smiled faintly, and sighed: "At first, I also thought it was the reason you just said."

"Is there another reason?" Li Yuntao was a little surprised.

Is there any inside story that hasn't been discovered yet?

"Old Li, take a guess and deduce it. What other reason could make Yang Xiangchun lose his composure?"

Li Yuntao thought for a while, drank several sips of wine, but still couldn't figure out why.

With a wry smile, he said, "Commander, don't be a fool."

General Zeng sighed and said, "Maybe you don't even believe it, but this Yang Xiangchun is actually the agent of the Weird Tree!"

"What?" Li Yuntao almost spit out the wine just after he took a sip of it.Hastily stretched out his hand to cover it, and swallowed the wine abruptly.

"It's absolutely true, the evidence is conclusive. Several members of the Hengcheng team have already contacted the main body of the strange tree to discuss the internal and external cooperation. If the information is correct, this group of people should be back soon." General Zeng said coldly.
