During the meeting, it is forbidden to use mobile phones. Everyone consciously put away their mobile phones, except Shen Sishu. Shen Sishu kept his mobile phone on the table, covering it with his right hand and tapping the screen from time to time. Everyone was speaking. As a monk in the Four Realms, he did not participate. He kept his head down as if he was chatting with someone.
It's not that he didn't abide by the meeting discipline, but he had other tasks. On the day when Abbot Hua Zhenxing convened the "Level 4 Standard Assessment Seminar on Yangyuan Shu", it was also the day when Major General Farah came to the Fiso Port Military Camp to inspect and review. Shen Sishu is responsible for keeping abreast of the situation in the military camp.
There are two other Four Realm monks in the new alliance, Wang Fengshou and Li Jingzhi, who are not at the meeting at the moment. They are cooperating with Shire's actions at the military camp. This operation was completely independently commanded by Shire.
When Hua Zhenxing planned the attack on the Xingsheng Gang, the three old men did not interfere. How to deal with the senior officials guarding the front this time, Hua Zhenxing also completely delegated power to Charles.
This not only cultivates Ciel's leadership and decision-making ability, but also cultivates his self-confidence. The new alliance does not regard Ciel as a puppet. Sooner or later, there are many things that require him to make his own decisions and take action, so today is the day for him an assessment.
There are also different opinions within the new alliance on when to eliminate the defensive front and liberate Banda City. In short, they have to wait for the time to come, but when the time is right, everyone's opinions have always been divided.
In fact, with the current military strength of the New Alliance, it is not difficult to defeat the armed forces guarding the front. The real test is how to successfully control and govern Banda City, and how to avoid trouble in the process.
Banda City has a total population of more than 1.2 million and is divided into 18 districts. There are also 11 towns on the outskirts of the main city. The situation is much more complicated than that of Fiso Port.
The New Alliance has actually not encountered many difficulties or challenges in its development so far. Everything seems to be going too smoothly. If there are setbacks at work, it is difficult to ensure that the current group of cadres can handle them well.
However, no matter what differences there are, sufficient preparations must be made. In the process of liberating the entire Fiso Port, especially the neighborhoods occupied by the former Grand Alliance, a large number of cadres were trained and special reserve cadres were established. training class.
For example, an experienced cadre will lead three to five reserve cadres and let them accumulate experience through practice. This configuration ratio actually takes into account the needs of liberating Banda City in the future.
During the day, we engage in specific work, and in the evening we hold study seminars to explain various methods and methods at work, summarize experiences and lessons, and point out various mistakes in order to correct and do better, and then conduct a period of special study.
The reserve cadres have made rapid progress and are already eager to try. However, the perspective of the top management is different. Banda City does not have an "old base" like Kelin District to serve as a demonstration, and the public's attitude towards the new alliance is still unknown. .
What is the attitude of the three elderly people towards this? Their opinion is to let Hua Zhenxing make the decision, while Hua Zhenxing's opinion is to let Charles make the decision.
But the three old men did nothing. Ke Mengchao also delivered a speech at a specially convened high-level meeting, with the theme of "Conquest, Occupation and Liberation", focusing on the differences between the three.
The so-called conquest is very simple, which is to defeat the opponent's resistance; but occupation in the true sense is to establish order so that society can maintain the most basic operation.
The meaning of liberation is completely different, which is to let the people there see the real light and hope, and actively devote themselves to the cause of light and hope. The strategic goal that the new alliance wants to achieve in Banda City is undoubtedly liberation.
Ke Mengchao didn't say anything else, let alone assign any specific tasks or orders. He just explained the strategic goals clearly, and the rest was Ciel's business.
The internal debate in the new alliance stopped three days ago because Major General Farah suddenly decided to conduct a spring inspection and review in advance. This was partly caused by Huazhenxing's raid on the Xingsheng Gang.
No one denies that this is a rare opportunity to deal with all the senior leaders of the defensive front on their own territory at once. There is no need to discuss it anymore, and if you don't want to take action, you have to take action.
In the eyes of Hua Zhenxing and others, Farah came to the door so recklessly. But Farah's own perspective was different. He was already cautious enough, and he came to demonstrate this time.
Farah brought with him a company of accompanying troops, which was also the most elite combat force guarding the front.
The guarding front is just a group of rabble, and they are the elite among the rabble. At least they have the most basic training, and occasionally conduct field exercises. This is quite remarkable. You should know that training is also expensive, and at least it consumes ammunition, right?
The guard front has about a regiment in Banda City, but it cannot afford to train like this, and the officers are reluctant to part with it, so they focus on building such an elite company.
The garrison under the command of Colonel Konu in Fiso Port has a nominal size of 500 people. In fact, many of them are servants serving the officers. Moreover, this army has no formal training, and the maintenance of guns is a problem.
.
If they really want to carry out a combat mission, the elite company brought by Farah can crush the garrison in Fiso Port into slag. This is the posture of the regular army to fight gangs, and it is even easier than fighting gangs.
In addition, Farah also brought his own guards, including adjutants and bodyguards. These are also well-trained combat and command elites, with a total number of almost a platoon.
Almost all other senior and decorated officers of the Guarding Front came, so the total number of people in the inspection team was close to 200.
Unfortunately, the information Farah had was out of date. The actual situation of the garrison at Feso Port was worse than what he knew. Most of the soldiers had already fled, and the remaining troops were less than one company. These were the only ones who had passed through the New Alliance.
He stayed after being persuaded and participated in the daily training of the New Alliance Army and enforced the military discipline of the New Alliance Army.
In response to the inspection, the New Alliance organized two more companies and stationed in the military camp wearing the uniforms of the defensive line. They all had the faces of local indigenous people. Apart from their completely different mental outlooks, there was no difference in other aspects.
No one objected to the decision to take action, but there were differences on the specific action plan. Wang Fengshou believed that the review could be conducted first, and then the action could be taken at the celebration banquet after the review. By then, Farah and others would definitely be most relaxed and paralyzed, and would be able to
Try to avoid accidents as much as possible.
But Charles firmly disagreed. He said: "What qualifications do people like Farah have to review the New Alliance Liberation Army?" Well, Charles had the final say, so he implemented the plan he made.
Farah's motorcade was on the road for ten hours, because it stopped for a meal along the way, and arrived at Fiso Port just in time for dinner.
Colonel Konu had been notified a long time ago and had prepared meals for them. The meals were so sumptuous that except for a few senior officers from the guard front who had been to Sanhu Restaurant, the others had not even seen them, let alone eaten them.
Saw it.
There are not only dishes but also wine. The high-ranking officers are provided with the popular version of Klin's Daqu, and the ordinary soldiers are provided with the improved version of banana wine. The wine is enough to drink casually. If you drink too much, it has been prepared here.
Once in the barracks, you can rest at any time.
The New Alliance Army has strict military discipline. Drinking is absolutely not allowed in the military camp on weekdays. If there are no combat missions, you can go out and have a few drinks on weekends. But when entertaining the "guests" guarding the front, there is no such thing.
Farah and the officers ate separately from the ordinary soldiers, with only the guards accompanying him. He also issued an order asking the soldiers not to drink too much.
This order is equivalent to not being given. Is it considered too much to drink no matter how much you drink? The military discipline guarding the front line has never been very disciplined. The so-called elites only mean that they have trained a few times more.
Farah's adjutant issued another order, requiring the soldiers to carry guns while eating. In short, the weapons should not be left behind. They should either carry them on their backs or put them in a place that is easily accessible. Check the safety to prevent the bullet from misfiring.
Don't load it either.
After letting the guests take their seats, the New Alliance Army soldiers filed into the canteen. It seemed that they were going to eat at other tables, but after walking around each table, their guns were pressed against the soldiers who were eating and drinking.
One person fights against another, one person holds the gun and controls the other person to disarm.
This can also show the level of organization and training. The New Alliance Army's movements were uniform. The elite companies guarding the front were all disarmed before they could react at all. No one had drunk too much at this time, and everyone was sober.
Even when held against a gun, he didn't dare to move or scream.
One person may have been too panicked and wanted to stand up despite the orders. The soldier who was staring at him didn't even shoot, but knocked him unconscious to the ground with the butt of his rifle from behind.
The New Alliance Army was very polite and allowed these captured soldiers to finish their meal first. Those who wanted to drink could also drink two drinks, but they must not drink too much. In the end, no one dared to drink too much! After eating, all the prisoners were led in line.
Walking, almost no sound was made.
As for the officers, they ate Xiaozao and drank good wine. Since there was no movement, they continued to drink. In the end, they were almost drunk and were taken away by the "orderly soldiers" sent by Colonel Konu. Many of them were unconscious.
to what happened.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, while the meeting at the Yangyuan Shu Center was still going on, Li Jingzhi stood in the open space of the camp room with his hands behind his back, looking up to the sky and sighing, as if his ambition was unfulfilled.
Wang Fengshou asked from the side: "Dagangzi, what's wrong with you? You look like you're constipated!"
Li Jingzhi: "You're just constipated! I just feel a little out of sorts. I'm full of strength but only punched out. After so many preparations, not to mention fighting, not even a fight, how can everything be solved?"
Wang Fengshou: "Isn't it best to kill without losing any blood? The next step is the main event. The commanders have been arrested, so the troops must be quick to deal with the garrison in Banda City."
Li Jingzhi: "Are you still afraid that they will reorganize?"
Wang Fengshou: "I'm afraid they will disperse without a commander. That would not only be difficult to catch, but would also cause harm everywhere."
Li Jingzhi: "Then we have to hurry up! Let the chief officers of their respective armies lead the way and set off tomorrow. The New Alliance Army has already been prepared."
Wang Fengshou: "The day after tomorrow, I have to wait until those officers have sobered up, and then we can interrogate them clearly."
Li Jingzhi: "I'll listen to Charles tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. He didn't drink too much."
Wang Fengshou: "As expected of a winery owner, he has a good capacity for drinking. He drank Farah unconscious forcibly. I wanted to persuade him to drink less. I would have to interrogate him later... I won't talk about this anymore.
Let’s go see a batch of treasures first, which Farah and the others brought, and they can be used just in time for this operation.”
