District 9

District 7 Luhuai.

Zhou Xingli sat in the conference room and looked at everyone. His thoughts were extremely complicated. He hoped that someone below would propose to accept Yi Lianshan, but he did not want Chief of General Staff Yan to represent the opinions of everyone in the General Staff Department with just one sentence.

Therefore, Li Bokang's call came at the right time, because meetings require different voices and confrontational discussions.

Before Li Bokang was appointed, the proposals of the General Staff Department were almost unanimous. After he was appointed, the number of people with different opinions gradually increased, so Zhou Xingli was in a good mood at the moment.

"Xiao Li called me. Many of his opinions were very reasonable." Zhou Xingli stepped in and explained Li Bokang's ideas to everyone.

After hearing this, Chief of Staff Yan immediately retorted: "I have said before that Li Bokang's ability is absolutely no problem, but his approach to doing things is too conservative."

As the conversation started, people from the General Staff began to find fault with Li Bokang's suggestion, while Zhou Xingli paused with a smile and made the final decision: "I think everyone has their own reasons for what they said. . The handling of this incident really needs to be considered from many aspects. Let’s ask the headquarters to reply to Yi Lianshan and say that we agree to the incorporation, but we must ask them to come up with a complete withdrawal plan for the troops.”

Everyone was stunned.

"He has a plan. We will wait and see before we decide whether to send troops for rescue." Zhou Xingli frowned and continued: "We don't know if the Eighth District knows that Yi Lianshan is going to run away. We can only wait and see first. Only then can we measure the cost-effectiveness of this matter. If he can really withdraw with a division, then it is not impossible for us to send troops to help. But if Yi Lianshan is too optimistic, then if we act rashly, we will probably pay a price of More than you get.”

These two sentences fully reflect Zhou Xingli's level. First, there is no problem with his idea of ​​surrendering to Yi Lianshan, and he is extremely thief; Second, his reply indirectly helped Li Bokang, who did not have any party affiliation, to complete the balance of the meeting.

Chief of General Staff Yan pondered for a while and then immediately echoed: "The commander has thought carefully, I think there is no problem."

After everyone heard the sound, they all agreed.

After the meeting, Yi Lianshan received a call back from Zhou's headquarters. The other party clearly conveyed Zhou Xingli's meaning in the most concise terms.

On the phone, Yi Lianshan nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I understand. Just wait for my call."

"That's it, Mr. Yi."

The two ended the call, and Yi Lianshan slapped his phone on the table and cursed: "Damn it, this bastard Zhou Xingli is not a good person either!"

"What's the matter, Commander?" Zhang Daming asked immediately.

Yi Lianshan responded with a gloomy expression: "He wants to see if we have the ability to run out, and he also wants to see if the upper management of the Eighth District knows that we are going to run away, and what actions they will take. To put it bluntly, he is both He wants our troops but doesn’t want to take any risks. If we can get there at zero cost, that would be best, but if he has to pay too much, then he definitely won’t do it.”

"Then this isn't over yet?" Zhang Daming replied.

After careful consideration for a while, Yi Lianshan immediately said: "Our troops are close to the Lu District, and it is most suitable to go there. Let the staff formulate a plan to withdraw into the Lu District, and then send it to Zhou Xingli's headquarters."

"Okay!" Zhang Daming replied in a panic.

"Also, I will call the reconnaissance aircraft brigade right away and ask them to select twenty combat reconnaissance aircraft and twenty logistics transport aircraft. You rush over immediately and manage them uniformly, waiting for my orders." Yi Lian Shan ordered in a low voice.

"Yes!" Zhang Daming nodded.

Yi Lianshan had already prepared for the worst. If the large troops could not evacuate, then he and the main officers would definitely have to leave a way out and could not sit still and wait for death.

Order after order was issued, and the 956th Division entered a state where it was possible to switch sides and open fire at any time.

…

District Eight.

Wang Zhou sat in the military headquarters. After thinking for a long time, he ordered to the Chief of General Staff: "Zexun, don't make any noise for now. You can go around Yi Lianshan and contact the core officers of the 956th Division to find out the news and maintain it." The stable situation of the 956th Division."

"I'm doing it." Chief of General Staff Yang Zexun nodded.

"Yi Lianshan has panicked. Under such circumstances, he would dare to do anything." Wang Zhou frowned and stood up: "It's not a big deal for us to take down a division commander, but if Yi Lianshan really He planned a mutiny in the troops, which would be a shame for us. I can’t afford to embarrass this person, do you understand?"

"I understand." The Chief of General Staff pondered for a while and then asked: "If Yi Lianshan is wanted to be moved, what should the Lin Department do if they intervene? They want to arrest people by force, how can we refute?"

Wang Zhou walked around the house for several times and replied: "He intended to defect to the enemy and incited the rebel troops to mutiny. He was shot to death on the spot."

Chief of General Staff Yang Zexun’s eyes lit up: “Then there’s nothing wrong with it.”

"Let the matter end with him." Wang Zhou replied with his hands behind his back.

…

In the evening, around half past six.

Jiang Xue took more than 60 military intelligence personnel from the Special Investigation Division and drove to the headquarters of the 956th Division.

On the road.

Jiang Xue sat in the car, holding the phone and said to Meng Xi: "Is Lin Xiao ready?"

"The special operations brigade has assembled two brigades and is preparing to airborne into the field." Meng Xi replied.

"Well, we can't operate in violation of regulations now. We must follow the procedures." Jiang Xue frowned and replied: "When I arrive outside the 956th Division's defense area, I will send a joint investigation notice to Yi Lianshan's division headquarters. Officially Order Yi Lianshan himself to wait for investigation at the division headquarters. Then, you must urge the troops from Shaan'an to enter the scene as soon as possible and block the retreat of the 956 Division. If Yi Lianshan is ready to resist, the special operations brigade will be airborne, and I will Just rush in."

"No problem." Meng Xi nodded: "Let's do the rest like this..."

at the same time.

In the territory of Shaan'an outside Sichuan, a division-level combat unit suddenly assembled urgently. A large number of troops began to approach the 956th Division stationed in Dezhou, which was not too far from Jiangzhou and Lu.

7:30 p.m.

The leader of the Alliance received a call: "Hello?"

"The troops from Shaan'an are coming, and they may be preparing to take Yi Lianshan by force." Wang Zhou said well-informed: "Chief, what do you think about this...?"

"Shaan'an's troops cannot enter, otherwise there will be chaos." The leader of the Tongmenghui replied softly: "The cooperation here in Yanbei is mainly Lin Xiao's special operations brigade and the special unit of the Military Intelligence Bureau."

Wang Zhou thought carefully: "You mean, you want to hold back the troops coming from Shaan'an?"

"We can't do this." The leader of the Alliance thought for a while and said, "Let District 7 do it. Since everyone doesn't agree, let's work together."

"Okay," Wang Zhou nodded: "I'll contact you."

…

Within the old triangle.

Qin Yu also received a text message, which read: "The 956th Division will be mobilized tonight."
