District 9

In the afternoon, in the restaurant next to the Songjiang City Police Station in District 9, Feng Yunian was sitting in a private room on the second floor, eating a simple bamboo tube rice, and said with an extremely relaxed posture: "I already knew that you wanted to see me, but what you want to say Son, I can’t do it.”

Feng Yunian's opening remarks directly blocked what Ma Laoer wanted to say.

"Second brother, we have known each other for a long time. It must have been seven or eight years ago. Ever since Qin Yu just made some progress as the underworld police chief, we are actually a so-called faction." Feng Yunian While eating, he said softly: "So, you kids must also know what kind of person I am."

"Yeah." Ma Laoer nodded.

"I'm from the Feng family, that's right, but I'm not a politician from the Feng family." Feng Yunian said sharply: "I am not an official just to have some kind of power. Otherwise, with the connections of the Feng family, I will not be able to compete with recent people." The attitude of the General Secretary of the Military Department towards the Feng family, after Shen Yin is out of class, I must be the mayor of Songjiang."

Ma Laoer stepped in, looked at him, and nodded again.

"The internal fighting in District 9 has been undercurrent since a few years ago. During this period, I have been trying to stay out of it and not want to get involved in these bad things. People in my family also know my character and know that I am disgusted with these things, so They did not invest too much resources in me." Feng Yunian ate the remaining rice in several bites, wiped his mouth and said: "...So, the attitude of the family and my personal attitude are two different things. From a personal emotional point of view Speaking of which, I tend to favor the World War II zone. Lao Zhou did a good job during his tenure, and I respect and appreciate him. But from the perspective of the entire Feng family, emotions must be less than actual interests, you know me Do you mean it?"

"I understand." Ma Laoer replied.

"When there is a riot in Songjiang this time, my elder brother Feng Ji is responsible for mediating. I will not get involved and I am not interested in this matter." Feng Yunian lit a cigarette, stepped in and looked at Ma Laoer: "If you insist on starting from I can’t give you the attitude of the Feng family here, because I can’t represent them.”

Ma Laoer thought for a long time: "From your perspective, would the Feng family choose the World War II zone?"

"I told you just now, emotion is less important than profit." Feng Yunian frowned and replied.

Ma Laoer rubbed his palms and said bravely: "Uncle Feng, I know you don't want to get involved in these things, but the current situation in the World War II zone is really too difficult. If Feng didn't express his support for Commander Zhou, then... ... Once the power of Commander Zhou was taken away, the core military power of District 9 would fall into the hands of Shen Wanzhou, Lao He, and Lao Xiang. By then, not only would many people in the World War II District be bloodbathed, but District 789 would also be Sooner or later, we will have to fight a civil war that will end in who knows how long.”

Feng Yunian smoked a cigarette and looked out the window.

"Uncle Feng, I want to beg you, please advise Mr. Feng to give some support to the World War II area at this critical moment." Ma Laoer knew what Feng Yunian wanted to hear, so he said seriously: "...If you can Isn’t it also a meritorious deed to avoid civil war and the loss of lives?”

"I'm afraid it's difficult to change the result." Feng Yunian sighed, waved his hand and said, "I'll go home in a while, let's give it a try."

"Thank you!" Ma Laoer replied with admiration.

…

After leaving the restaurant, Feng Yunian took the police station's helicopter back to Fengbei to meet the old man of the Feng family, Feng Chengzhang, in order to rush for time.

In the study room.

Feng Yunian didn't take the initiative to say anything after smoking two cigarettes.

"You came back here to smoke?" Feng Chengzhang looked at the book and asked calmly.

Feng Yunian hesitated for a moment, put out the cigarette butt and asked: "We should take all the benefits given by the military and political headquarters, and there is no clear attitude towards the Zhou clique in the World War II area... I want to ask, what will the Feng clique do? select?"

Feng Chengzhang looked up at him and asked with a smile: "Aren't you not interested in these things?"

"Someone is looking for me, and I promise to help." Feng Yunian replied straightforwardly.

"Is he from Qin Yu?" Feng Chengzhang asked.

"Yes." Feng Yunian admitted frankly.

"This choice is related to Feng Xi's life and death," Feng Chengzhang stood up and replied with a sigh: "You must be cautious."

"Do you want to imitate the Lin system in the eighth district?" Feng Yunian asked.

"No, our situation is different from that of the Lin Clan." Feng Chengzhang shook his head: "At the beginning, there were only three military and political forces in the Eighth District: Tang Zhang, Gu Clan, and Lin Clan. What about the Ninth District? The Ninth District has the Party and Government Self-Defense Forces, and there is The Shen clique in the war zone includes parties directly under the General Administration of Military Affairs, the Lu clique, the Saudi clique, and the opposition faction, as well as European and Asian political factions, military and political factions... No one can understand the game of chess in the ninth district at present. , one mistake and you will be out."

Feng Yunian was silent.

"What will be the result of being eliminated?" Feng Chengzhang said calmly with his hands behind his back: "It will be shattered into pieces! How can you make such a big decision so easily?"

"Is harmony with the mud the way to solve the problem?" Feng Yunian responded in a questioning tone: "If you don't want to choose, why did you accept the overtures of the General Administration of Military Affairs in the first place?"

"If you don't take these benefits, you won't even have a chance to place the stone on the chessboard. If we are tied to the Zhou system and the chess game is clear in advance, then the war has already begun." Feng Chengzhang replied softly: "He Xini , is definitely not a solution to the problem, but we have no choice but to delay and wait for the next steps."

"Dad...!" Feng Yunian stood up and wanted to argue.

Feng Chengzhang turned back to look at him: "You always feel that the internal struggle for power is not on the table and is a shameless conspiracy. But have you ever thought about it? How can you realize your ambition in Songjiang without the care of your family? ?You can’t even be the director, so what ideals and visions can you talk about?!”

Feng Yunian was speechless.

"...You don't want to fight, but you can't resist someone who wants to fight." Feng Chengzhang said with a tired look on his face: "I'm already this age, and you just want me to be the commander, how many years can I be? Alas, I have to do my best to do my best. Just to bless future generations."

The two stood indoors and fell silent with each other.

After a while, there was a knock on the door, and a young man walked into the room and said, "Grandpa, Sha Zhongwei is here."

"Invite him to the reception room." Feng Chengzhang replied lightly, pointed at Feng Yunian and said: "If you don't want to get involved, just stay away. Someone will do it if you have contact with the World War II area."

After saying that, Feng Chengzhang stepped out of the study.

…

Yanbei.

While Governor Gu was on the phone in his office, the adjutant came in and said, "Governor, a staff officer from the Ninth World War II Zone has come and requested to meet with you."

Estuary area.

Qin Yu took the phone and said: "What I mean is that since the other side has launched a second attack, we can't rush to counterattack. We are not ready yet. If we push the troops forward forcefully, we may collapse."

Inside the headquarters of the 1st Field Brigade, Da Ya pulled his neck and shouted: "Selected soldiers, gather in the rear. I estimate that when the second attack on the opposite side is over, we will definitely counterattack."
