District 9

Outside Songjiang District, in the tent of the Third Division's temporary headquarters, division commander Geng Lishan and Shen Yin talked alone.

"Team Leader Shen, I just called the Fifth Field Division. Lao Xie told me that the situation at Beifengkou is also very tense. There are more than 10,000 people outside the line. They are very determined to open fire. As long as there is a little friction, , we will definitely start working." Geng Lishan put his hands behind his back and said softly to Shen Yin: "...I think the situation is a bit out of control now, and our First Theater Command is not sure whether to fight or not."

"Uncle Geng, there are no outsiders here. Don't just call me Team Leader Shen." Shen Yin responded politely: "... Now we have moved here. If we don't fight, how will we end it?"

Geng Lishan lowered his head and walked back and forth in the room, but did not answer immediately.

"Uncle Geng, don't we have the same attitude towards Tiancheng Security Company in the First War Zone?" Shen Yin asked a very crucial question.

"Yes!" Geng Lishan turned around and nodded with a frown: "Obviously, there must be some disagreements within the headquarters, and there must be some uncertainty, otherwise we would have received the exact order!"

Shen Yin was silent.

"Let me tell you this, if this matter is just a simple military conflict, then if we really want to open fire, the more than 10,000 people outside the Beifengkou line can't do it, and the Tiancheng Security Company in the area can't do it. We only need to use two field divisions , we can quickly deal with them." Geng Lishan whispered: "But the question is... is this battle worth it?"

Shen Yin still didn't answer, just listened quietly.

"Getting Songjiang was originally a good thing, but within our military and political affairs, in the end, because of the uneven distribution of benefits, we opened fire so blatantly! Fighting a battle involving tens of thousands of people would make the seven and eight districts, the party and government, and the academy , It’s so ridiculous! And the upper-level military council will definitely not agree!” Geng Lishan frowned and continued to add: “Secondly, once the fire is fired, can we be sure that no one else will get involved?”

"Since we don't agree, why didn't the superiors speak directly?" Shen Yin asked.

"Because there are too many people involved. The First and Second World War Zones, independent departments, the Military Supervision Bureau, and the Military Council are all coveting Songjiang's position. How can the upper levels say anything? What should they say?" Geng Lishan shook his head and replied: " It's not easy to balance this matter, understand? But one thing is for sure. The civil war is consuming and fighting tens of thousands of people against yourself is absolutely impossible. The higher-ups will not agree at all, because if you start a war, Songjiang will still be Songjiang. , the existing positions will not increase, so what’s the point of doing it? Apart from making outsiders laugh, does it have any effect? ​​"

When Shen Yin heard this, his expression became serious.

"In addition, just after the conflict between the 113th Regiment and Tiancheng Security Company, Lao Wu from the Military Supervision Bureau directly asked Sha Xuan to arrest him. What does this mean? He is obviously participating in the war and is dissatisfied. I will tell you clearly. Qin Yu is my man. If you touch him and don't give me face, then I will do it to you. Don't let everyone calm down. So the most important thing is, even if we are really angry now, will anyone suddenly jump? Come out and help Qin Yu's side? You know Lao Wu's connections. Many division-level officers in the World War II area have a close relationship with him. If two troops really appear and are stuck next to Songjiang, then How should we respond? What is the attitude of the Lin family and the Feng family? Do we know now? Do we know how many people are dissatisfied with this distribution of interests in Songjiang? "

"Yeah, I never thought before that a little Tiancheng could mobilize so many forces!" Shen Yin now felt regretful and hated Qin Yu and Wu Di because they put him in an extremely embarrassing situation. The situation brought the matter to a point where it could not be ended.

"The headquarters hasn't issued an accurate order yet, so I can only park the troops here first. Otherwise, if we really enter the area, we don't dare to move, and it will be very embarrassing where we are." Geng Lishan was very angry. Said: "Wait, wait for the attitude of the headquarters!"

"Yeah." Shen Yin nodded.

…

First Theater Command.

The chief of general staff called Shen Yin's father, first explained the situation, and then asked tactfully: "How do you think this matter should be handled? The situation in Beifengkou is very tense, and the Fifth Field Division has already reached a stalemate with them. Hold on, outside Songjiang, the troops of the Third Division have also entered sensitive positions...!"

Shen Yin's father was an old fox. He thought for a while and then said: "...The Secretary-General just had a phone call with me. He said that the military council meant to control the situation and handle it as appropriate!"

"...!" The chief of general staff's head was buzzing after hearing the words "deal with discretion."

"Old Yan, don't let the matter escalate further. You can communicate with the third division. They are in a sensitive position now and may feel more uncomfortable. You can ask their opinions."

"Okay, okay, I understand." The chief of general staff nodded.

"that's all!"

After saying that, the two ended the call.

The chief of general staff took the mobile phone and gritted his teeth. He didn't know how to communicate with the commander of the third division. He just racked his brains for a long time and sent him a text message.

…

Inside Tiancheng Construction Company.

Lao Li sat on the sofa, looked up at Wu Di and asked, "Do you think there is a high possibility of a beating?"

"Not big." Wu Di shook his head: "There are many people who are dissatisfied with this incident. Can they afford to fight?! Let me tell you this, my dad has already had a phone call with some officials in the World War II area. They want to If you really dare to hug him, let's do it together."

"But with this stalemate, there is no way to end the matter." Lao Li stood up slowly, looked at Qin Yu and said: "They are embarrassed now, and we are also uncomfortable. With this stalemate, where can we stop?"

"Yeah, even though I say that, thousands of people like me don't feel safe at all in the area." Qin Yu blinked and replied: "What if a fool like Sha Xuan appears? If we don’t understand anything and open fire as soon as we enter the area, we will feel very uncomfortable.”

"I have a way to mess with them!" Lao Li said with a chuckle.

"What?" Qin Yu asked.

"Can you two do it this way?" Lao Li walked up to the two of them excitedly and whispered his suggestion.

…

The third division, inside the temporary headquarters.

While Geng Lishan and Shen Yin were discussing what to do next, a text message alert suddenly rang in the room.

Geng Lishan took out his mobile phone, opened the text message and glanced at it, his head was spinning.

"The higher-ups want to control the situation and handle it as appropriate!"

"...!" Geng Lishan stared blankly at the text message, and after holding it in for a long time, he cursed: "Fuck, what kind of discretion is there?! My troops have already arrived, how can we use discretion? How can we use discretion!! "
