District 9

Inside the Jiangzhou Club.

Fu Zhen stayed in the corridor for a while before returning to the private room and asked Lao Zhan and the others, "Would you like some drinks?"

"No." Lao Zhan waved his hand: "We have to go back in a while."

"Just stay here for a day. Our comrades haven't gotten together for a long time. I'll make arrangements." Fu Zhen warmly invited: "Just as you are leaving, I will also go to the Eighth District."

"No." Lao Zhan shook his head and replied: "The upper management is very strict now. Let me tell you the truth, if we hadn't stopped by for business this time, there would be no way we would have met."

"Yes." Xiaoliu also nodded in agreement: "Don't say we are sitting here chatting together. Now we met on the street and chatted for a few more words. If someone is interested, see it and report it to the superiors. Then we My life is not guaranteed."

"As for it?"

"Why not?!" Lao Zhan squinted at Fu Zhen: "As soon as the incident about your family came out, Jiangzhou, Luhuai, Jiujiang, and the surrounding areas to be planned are all spies arranged by the upper levels, who dare to secretly The officers who came into contact with you captured the big cage and went directly to the Military Supervision Bureau, and no one was able to escape unscathed."

"Haha." Fu Zhen smiled and did not answer.

"We have to go back later."

"Hey, what are you doing here this time?" Fu Zhen asked smoothly, "Can you tell me?"

"...There's nothing I can't say." Lao Zhan paused and replied: "The upper levels have recruited some local armed forces in the surrounding area. Many officers from our naval unit have been transferred out and are preparing to be decentralized to these areas. I am not He is getting older and has been withdrawn from the front line. Now he is focusing on military discipline and training, mainly leading the navy."

"Oh." Fu Zhen nodded and asked Xiaoliu and the others, "What about you?"

"I'm still in the special operations department. This time I'm assigned to Lao Zhan. I may be stationed somewhere with the troops and be responsible for maintaining stability." Xiao Liu replied.

"I'm going to Florida." Another person replied.

Fu Zhen originally just wanted to win over a few people, but unexpectedly he asked for more unexpected information. He lit a cigarette and chatted with everyone casually: "Who changed the flag?"

"Haha." Lao Zhan smiled and did not answer directly. He only changed the subject and asked: "Xiao Fu, oh, no, now I have to call Director Fu."

"Fuck, don't talk nonsense, we are all comrades in arms, there is no such thing as a division director." Fu Zhen waved his hand in a low-key manner.

"...To be honest, I'm quite surprised that you came to us this time." Lao Zhan began to bring the topic to this aspect: "Well, I am quite happy when I think of the days when we were together."

"I'm so happy." Xiao Liu said straightforwardly: "When he was a soldier, how much trouble did this guy cause you? He even beat me."

"Fuck, it's quite normal to have some bumps and bruises in the army." Fu Zhen scratched his nose awkwardly and followed Lao Zhan's topic and said: "Hey, to be honest, you guys are so stupid They are elites. Logically speaking, they must all be at the school officer level now. You are like Lao Zhan, who was the instructor of the brigade many years ago. He has senior qualifications, excellent professional skills, and has taught countless elite soldiers. That's it. If you don't use these people in high places, then what's the point of hanging around there? If you can't do it, just come to me."

The three of them were silent.

After Fu Zhen waited for a while, he started to cheat: "Come here, we brothers will be together. I can't guarantee anything else, but the future is absolutely bright. Commander Qin is very fond of my father's position, whether it is in terms of funding." , or in terms of personnel appointments, it gave him a lot of freedom. As for me, Commander Qin even looked out for my father... He specifically asked the bureau to set up a new department for me to do ...I’m really touched by this. Now I don’t think about anything else. I just want to lead Commander Qin’s horse and ride on the battlefield in bloody battles!”

"Haha, we can't compare with you." Lao Zhan rubbed his palms and replied: "After all, you are the prince of the general's family. The Sichuan government treats you well..."

"Fuck, the Sichuan government is good to me, how is that any different from being good to you?" Fu Zhen immediately interrupted and responded: "We are comrades-in-arms, brothers. You are here, this secret operations office, then the big guy Let's discuss it together. I'll give you the job of deputy director, Lao Zhan, and I guarantee you will be promoted to colonel in three years."

When Lao Zhan heard this, he felt that it was absolutely nonsense to say that he was not moved. He is thirty-four years old this year, has strong business capabilities, and has a lot of experience in leading special operations troops. He can be regarded as an absolutely backbone naval officer. Logically speaking, he is not too old, but he retired from the front line of the Navy's special operations force last year. Although he is still in the army, he is doing side jobs, leading troops for basic training and so on. .

If you are not on the front line, there are no field subsidies and field wages. It is very difficult to get promoted just by training. Lao Zhan already had a hunch that if he continued like this, if he didn't have major opportunities for further education and study, he would eventually be able to achieve the rank of lieutenant colonel, and then be sent to the local area as a deputy division-level official. Moreover, if you want to get this deputy department-level official, you will have to spend a lot of money to operate it, because there are too many people in the local platoon...

No one above is easy to mess with. This is the most concise summary of Lao Zhan's military career.

People who come out of the special operations force have relatively few bad habits. They don't smoke much and don't drink too much. Lao Zhan sat there for a while, turned to look at Fu Zhen and asked: "...Brother, to be honest, can we come today?" , I must be moved in my heart, but I really don’t know what the situation is like over there now, and whether we can adapt to it if we go there.”

Fu Zhen immediately replied: "Don't worry, as long as you come here, I will definitely give you the position of deputy director, lieutenant colonel's salary, individual housing, etc., all in one package."

"Okay, then let me think about it."

"How many more things do you think about this?" Fu Zhen saw that the other party was getting excited: "Let me put it bluntly, the Zhou Clan and the Sichuan Mansion will have to fight sooner or later, and in our current state, do you think we have a chance of winning? How big is it? When Jiujiang and Luhuai are captured, if you want to join, then...it will be too late, brother! I want to give it to you, Deputy Director, but I can't."

Lao Zhan licked his lips: "The main thing is, even if I agree now, I can't leave immediately."

"What's going on?" Fu Zhen asked.

"...Fuck, my family are all in Luhuai. What will they do if I leave?" Lao Zhan looked at Fu Zhen: "This matter will have to wait for an opportunity."

"What chance?"

"To tell you the truth, I am going to Lu Di on official business this time. I may stay for a year or two. My main purpose is to help the Navy select new recruits. Your Sichuan government is working hard to develop Salt Island, build warships, and We are looking for a lieutenant general, so we think there is a threat here, and the navy also wants to expand its troops." Lao Zhan said in a low voice: "I want to go to Ludi. After people settle there, I have a quota and can take my family out. Let them accompany the army."

"Are you going to Lu Di this time?" Fu Zhen asked, blinking his eyes.

"Yes." Lao Zhan nodded: "Taikang's big profits have been incorporated, at least ten thousand people will be recruited."

"...Why does the Zhou Clan suddenly want to recruit local forces? How much money will it cost?!" Fu Zhen asked.

"I don't know the details, but I heard that the higher-ups re-activated a cadre named Li." Lao Zhan said softly: "This person suggested integrating local forces. The general meaning is that integrating troops is one aspect, but the main thing is I want to occupy the land in advance.”

Li Bokang looked at Zhang Tian and said, "I want you to go to the fourth district."
