District 9

It's about eight o'clock in the morning.

Qin Yu rushed back to the Eighth District from the war zone at Likou. After getting off the plane, he contacted Wu Tianyin immediately and said succinctly: "I have arrived in Yanbei and will see the governor immediately. You comfort the wounded soldiers. I will arrange the support that Bian should provide immediately..."

After Wu Tianyin was silent for a long time, he said: "Xiao Yu, after yesterday's battle, I understood clearly. Our Wu mercenary group and the Self-Defense Force cannot win, but I will not leave... Beifengkou is here, and I will be there."

"Brother Yin, I understand what you mean."

"Yeah." Wu Tianyin hung up the phone.

…

Twenty minutes later, Qin Yu entered the governor's office under the leadership of Gu Tai'an's guards.

Gu Tai'an was smoking a cigarette and standing at the window, his back looking thin.

"Governor, Master Qin is here." the guard reminded.

"Get out." Gu Tai'an said with his back to the door.

"Commander Qin, let's talk." The guard officer greeted Qin Yu and closed the door.

Qin Yu walked up to Gu Tai'an and said after thinking for a long time: "Commander...!"

"Do you know why I don't help you during this civil war in District Nine?" Gu Tai'an asked while smoking a cigarette and looking at the gloomy sky outside the window.

Qin Yu was stunned for a moment and did not answer.

"I just met with the Minister of Finance of the Eighth District. On the table are the military expenditures of the Eighth District in the past three years that he calculated." Gu Tai'an turned to look at Qin Yu, his face slightly pale: "In the past three years, the military expenditure of the Eighth District has been The consumption of troops is more than ten times that of government affairs. If the money spent is used on people's livelihood construction, the second Xinyang may be almost built."

"Yeah." Qin Yu nodded.

"How can we fight if we don't have money!" Gu Tai'an pointed at Qin Yu: "The time is not right, we should take it slow."

"Governor, after talking to you last time in District 8, I really didn't think about getting involved in the civil war in District 9 now..." Qin Yu wanted to explain.

"I know that you were involved when you entered the scene because the Wu family and the World War II Zone Zhou Department have a close relationship with you. But top leaders cannot be emotional about some things." Gu Tai'an turned around and frowned. Said: "...Forget it, the matter is over, there is no use saying anything now."

Qin Yu lowered his head, not daring to argue anymore.

Gu Tai'an leaned on the window sill and said concisely: "I will ask you two questions now."

"You asked!"

"Can the Wu faction and the Self-Defense Forces withdraw from Beifengkou?" Gu Tai'an asked expressionlessly.

"Do you want them to abandon Beifengkou and participate in the civil war?" Qin Yu responded tentatively.

"If their troops can come back, the fifty or sixty thousand soldiers will be enough to turn the tide of the war and quickly clear out these bastards in District 9." Gu Tai'an replied calmly.

Qin Yu hesitated for a while: "I'm afraid this won't work. Wu Tianyin will not give up Beifengkou. It is no different from his hometown."

"We are not asking him to abandon the people, but to withdraw together." Gu Tai'an emphasized.

"...That is his foundation. With Brother Yin's character, he will not leave, and many generals probably will not leave either." Qin Yu replied firmly.

Gu Tai'an frowned again, pondered for a moment and then asked: "Then can you stop supporting the Wu faction and quickly end the civil war?"

Qin Yu didn't consider whether Gu Tai'an's words were testing his own humanity. He just replied without hesitation: "I will not give up supporting the Wu faction, Governor!"

"You can't do this or that, so you just stare at me?!" Gu Tai'an became anxious and kicked Qin Yu on the butt: "You fucking use me as a Buddha?"

"Cough...cough!"

After Gu Taian finished cursing, he coughed violently.

Qin Yu was startled, and immediately helped him and said, "Commander, I know your difficulties. If you don't ask me to come, I will not take the initiative to make things difficult for you. I am aware of the situation in the Eighth District. I Now all I want is that our military forces in the Eighth District can hold on to the southwest and northwest... And I am going to mobilize the troops from the Southwest Sichuan War Zone to support Beifengkou... Now that Feng Chengzhang has been caught, there will be no more wars in Songjiang... ...If the Zhou system can knock on the gate of Fengbei...then this time, District 9 will at least have a 50-50 split, and let’s talk about it in the worst case!"

"What nonsense! If you don't kill the thief, there will be endless troubles." Gu Tai'an scolded in a bright voice: "If the situation in District 9 continues to be stalemate, it is possible for the three bastards He Fenglu and others to rise again. District 1 of the European Union The support for them will not be small.”

When Qin Yu heard this, he was confused. He couldn't understand what Governor Gu meant.

"...Sigh, we didn't do a good job in diplomacy." Gu Tai'an sighed and said: "If civil wars hadn't been so frequent and involved a lot of our energy, then the Liberal Party might have been won over. These bastards are in the Sixth District Council It has lost its main voice in the EU and is now in a dormant stage. It can only rely on the political support of the EU region to enhance its political value and weight... Therefore, their attack this time will also be very active."

Qin Yu listened quietly.

Gu Tai'an reached out and took out his cigarette case, took one out, put it in his mouth, and lit it with the butt of the cigarette: "There is no other way. The Wu faction and the Self-Defense Forces have been beaten like this, and you are not even qualified to negotiate internationally. The barrel of the gun is not strong, and everything you say is just fart! Europeans will not sympathize with the weak, but will be afraid of the strong. So, this time, we must fight to determine the outcome, completely solve the problem of the ninth district, and let there be no more wars in the north!"

Qin Yu immediately asked for advice: "What should we do so that there will be no more war in the north?"

"Come here." Gu Tai'an waved his hand and walked towards the sand table in the center of the room.

Qin Yu followed and stood on Gu Tai'an's left side.

"Remove all the troops of your Sichuan government in Lukou Port, join with the Songjiang troops, and immediately march into Beifeng." Gu Tai'an pointed at the sand table neatly and said: "Your troops of the Southwest Theater of Sichuan Province, as well as the division All combat units directly under the ministry were also transferred out of the defense area and headed north to Beifengkou."

Qin Yu nodded.

"Let Liu Weiren take the lead in the Lukou battlefield for a while," Gu Tai'an frowned and said, "Leave the rest to the Eighth District."

…

Gu Tai'an and Qin Yu discussed the countermeasures after talking in the office for nearly forty minutes.

When the two of them walked out, Qin Yu looked at Gu Tai'an's old profile and said for no reason: "Governor, thank you for your hard work."

Gu Tai'an turned to look at Qin Yu, smiled and nodded: "I am quite tired, hey, you young people, please get up quickly...!"

At the corner of the corridor, Qin Yu stopped and looked at Gu Tai'an blankly, without leaving first.

Gu Tai'an, followed by a large group of people, walked toward the conference room.

In recent years, Qin Yu could clearly feel that the governor was getting older, his body was no longer so straight, and his legs were no longer lifted so high when he walked. The only thing that remains unchanged is that he is like the anchor of the three major districts. When you look at him, you will always feel confident in your heart...

…

At 10:30 in the morning, the meeting began. People from the foreign affairs department were the first to stand up and speak: "Governor, the European Union, through the Asian Union, euphemistically expressed to us that if the He government's leadership rights in the ninth district can be recognized, then they will withdraw their troops from Beifengkou. ….”

"You don't have to be tactful, just speak frankly to the European Union. I would rather bury loyal people all over the country than let them see with their own eyes how these bastards in the three regions who have forgotten their ancestors were wiped out by me!" Gu Tai'an raised his eyebrows and said: "We will fight for ten years. In this battle, I will completely destroy the special character in front of District 9!"
