Li Yuntao was really frightened this time. He swallowed a mouthful of wine and choked in his throat, almost causing him to cough and not catch his breath.
After taking a long time to catch his breath, Li Yuntao still looked at General Zeng with eyes filled with disbelief.
"This... this is too unimaginable, isn't it?" Li Yuntao murmured.
General Zeng said angrily: "How could I have thought of it? Now our plan is on the line, but such an accident happened. The work ahead is almost in vain."
The previous work is not just as simple as formulating a plan, but also includes the mobilization of personnel, the allocation of resources, the distribution of equipment, and all aspects of arrangements.
General Zeng and Li Yuntao both put in a lot of work during this process, and at some points they even asked their grandfather to sue their grandmother, and they finally got to this point.
In the end, something like this happened.
Li Yuntao still had some luck: "Commander-in-Chief, is there something wrong? Has this matter been confirmed?"
"If the source of the information comes from elsewhere, I might be suspicious of it, but do you know who informed this information?"
"who?"
"It's Mr. Song, and the one who found out the news is Jiang Yue and the daughter of the youngest boss in the center. Do you think the information is trustworthy?"
When Li Yuntao heard the word "center", he immediately stood in awe.
The initially doubtful look on his face suddenly became firm: "That can't be wrong."
General Zeng said solemnly: "To be cautious, we still need to verify it again. If the people from Hengcheng really want to return in the next few days, we will watch their actions and listen to their words to see what their situation is. Similarly, we will also
We must dig out the details of Yang Xiangchun."
"But Yang Xiangchun is from the Central and South Region. Find out more about him..."
"Of course we are beyond our reach, but there are people in the Central South Region who can dig it out. This matter affects the whole body. We must ensure that Yang Lichun's entire line up and down is dealt with clearly."
Li Yuntao was a little embarrassed: "This will inevitably involve the central government, otherwise you and I may not be able to control the affairs of the Central and South Region with our qualifications."
"That's natural." General Zeng nodded.
"Commander, I hear you say this, is Professor Lu Jinwen very important?"
"This person is from Star City University. He has been studying strange creatures since the Sunshine Era. No one can tell how many secrets of the Earth Center Tribe he has mastered. However, Jiang Yue thinks that this person is very important. He is on the front line, so naturally with his
The judgment shall prevail.”
Li Yuntao nodded: "Jiang Yue, this young man, is quite reliable. Since he said that, Professor Lu Jinwen must have something to dig out. Star City University is also a famous university in the country, and this person is a leading figure in Star City University. It is inevitable that
He has real abilities. However, since he has been in the hands of the Weird Tree for such a long time, he is afraid that he would have fallen into the trap and become an agent of the Weird Tree, right?"
"This is not impossible. But even so, we have to rescue people first."
"How easy is it to save someone who falls into the hands of a strange tree?"
"As long as he falls into Yang Xiangchun's hands, saving others may not be impossible."
"Commander-in-Chief, do you mean that we shouldn't alert the enemy first? Don't leave Yang Xiangchun alone first and let them be complacent for a while?"
"If you move Yang Xiangchun now, don't say we don't have enough evidence. Even if we have enough evidence, what's the point?
Li Yuntao thought about it and felt that what the commander-in-chief said made sense.
The two discussed the details for a while, and before they knew it, they had been chatting for two or three hours.
At around two o'clock in the afternoon, a guard knocked on the door.
"Commander-in-Chief, a leader from the Central South Region named Yang Xiangchun wants to see you."
General Zeng and Li Yuntao looked at each other with meaningful expressions in their eyes.
We just talked about Yang Xiangchun, and here is Yang Xiangchun? Didn’t he always treat this guy passively before, hiding in the hotel and not showing up, and only asking about the war outside?
The two exchanged glances and quickly reached a tacit understanding.
"Haha, this Director Yang hasn't shown up for a long time. Lao Li, let's go meet him together?"
Li Yuntao smiled tacitly and said: "Easy to say, easy to say, let's go."
Speaking of Li Yuntao, he is a giant-level deputy general manager in the Xiqiao District. In terms of administrative level, he is definitely one level higher than Yang Xiangchun and is a real district-level boss.
Not to mention General Zeng, one of the most promising young giants in the military. He enjoys a great reputation in the military and is blessed with the title of commander-in-chief.
No matter which one of the two, his status is more than one head higher than Yang Xiangchun.
Yang Xiangchun can put on a show in front of others, but in front of these two commanders-in-chief, he can really only be a little person.
"Haha, Director Yang, you are a rare visitor. Come, please sit down." Li Yuntao greeted Yang Xiangchun with a smile.
But General Zeng just nodded lightly, his face serious.
The two of them have a tacit understanding, one is a good person and the other is a bad person.
Seeing General Zeng's sullen face, Yang Xiangchun felt somewhat uneasy.
"The two conductors must be criticizing me for not being active in my work, and I accept it humbly." Yang Xiangchun was not stingy, as if he accepted the criticism humbly.
Li Yuntao smiled and said: Are you feeling emotional if the first batch of executive directors were not selected?"
Yang Xiangchun smiled awkwardly, and then said in a somewhat remorseful tone: "It was my failure to change my concept, improper control of my emotions, and brought my personal emotions to work. I sincerely apologize to the two commanders-in-chief."
I'm not afraid of him being hard on the head, I'm just afraid of this kind of hob meat.
He accepts whatever you say with an open mind, which makes you feel a little uncomfortable.
"Director Yang, the commander-in-chief has mentioned you to me many times in the past few days, and we are all heartbroken. Your Central and South Region is an elite team. You, the leader of the team, should have led the team well and fought in the first place.
Line. The result is good, you are hiding in the hotel to have some leisure time. Look at the leaders of other regions, which one is as passive as you? "
"Wang Haochen from the Zhongzhou Region even died on the front line of the battle. If you say you did this, how will we report to the central government later? What will the leaders of your region think of you?"
Li Yuntao criticized with sincerity, like an elder, expressing his well-intentioned criticism with disappointment but concern.
Yang Xiangchun said with a sad face: "Commander Li, I was indeed wrong. I declare that from now on I will resolutely obey the arrangements of the joint command team. Even if I am asked to be a pawn charging into the battle, I will definitely be at the forefront and never give anything to us.
The command team is in disgrace.”
"It would be great if you had thought this way earlier. See for yourself, we are going to add a new batch of executive directors this time. I put your name first. I have always felt that this is what you should
That's right. Ask yourself, if it weren't for the battle between Star City and Hengcheng, and you created a bad impression in everyone's eyes, how could you not have been elected in the first selection?"
"Yes, yes, I shot myself in the foot." Yang Xiangchun said bitterly.
At the same time, he received the supplementary list handed over by Li Yuntao.
"Two commanders, is this supplementary list so long?" Yang Xiangchun asked in surprise.
"It's not long enough. The front line is a bit tight, not to mention that the front line will be lengthened in the future. More executive directors will be needed to take charge of the overall situation. Director Yang, you are a veteran. With your qualifications and experience, you should be the leader. I and the president
Commanding two people, I often feel that I am alone, and when I need to discuss things, there are not many people with strategic vision around me."
Yang Xiangchun's heart moved, as if he heard what Li Yuntao meant. Was he trying to promote him and put him in an important position?
"Two commanders, I have made a profound review. Again, I will resolutely obey the arrangements of the command team and work steadily in the future."
"That's right, your ability and qualifications are obvious to both the commander-in-chief and I. The joint command team also needs a staff team. Currently, there is still a lack of a chief of staff... When the time comes, they will definitely be selected from among these executive directors.
.Director Yang, you have to be able to take the lead."
chief of staff?
Yang Xiangchun's heart moved slightly. This was a core figure. All the secrets and plans of the joint command group could not bypass the position of chief of staff.
Yang Xiangchun was naturally elated, and immediately said: "Two commanders, actually I came today to admit my mistake, and secondly to report an important matter."
"Oh? What's the matter?"
"It's like this. There was some conflict between the Hengcheng and Star City teams before. The two sides made a bet. They wanted the Hengcheng team to go to explore the secret information of the Weird Tree and go deep into the core area of the Weird Tree within thirty kilometers. You two
The conductor should have heard of this, right?"
"Well, we did hear about this."
"Now, the Hengcheng team has returned from the core area of the Weird Tree and brought back some important information. They know that the previous conflict with Star City was wrong, so they are embarrassed to come to meet the two commanders in person." Yang Xiangchun still hesitated.
Yu Dao.
Li Yuntao chuckled: "You can do a lot of good if you know your mistakes and can correct them. Being able to investigate the secret information about the strange tree is a great achievement. Those things before were just some small episodes. Did the command team even have such tolerance?
There's none?"
Speaking of this, Li Yuntao said to General Zeng: "Commander-in-Chief, look, should we meet these warriors who are rushing on the front line? We can also reduce their psychological burden!"
General Zeng said calmly: "Then let's meet."
Yang Xiangchun was overjoyed when he heard this.
Li Yuntao said so much, but General Zeng never expressed his position.
It wasn't until General Zeng expressed his stance that Yang Xiangchun was convinced that he had finally been forgiven by the command team.
Fifteen minutes later, the tour leader and several others arrived at the joint command group.
Yang Xiangchun explained: "Two commanders, the situation is like this. There were originally twenty people in the Hengcheng team. One person was lost earlier, and another person quit. There are still eighteen people left, and one person has not recovered from poisoning and has been sent back to Hengcheng.
The city has gone. There are only seventeen people left. Among these seventeen people, considering their abilities, awakening talents, etc., only a few of them have truly penetrated into the core area of the Weird Tree itself. The other team members are all there.
Stationed elsewhere. This time the situation is urgent and other team members have not had time to return to the team."
General Zeng nodded lightly and glanced at Captain You and others one by one.
"Looking at the sleepy looks on your faces, you must have suffered a lot. Thank you for your hard work."
Captain You hurriedly said: "I am willing to admit defeat. Besides, we are fighting for the future of mankind. It is equivalent to fighting for ourselves. Even if we suffer some hardships, we deserve it."
Li Yuntao smiled and said: "This is the right attitude. Tell me, what did you discover this time?"
Captain You respectfully handed over a document bag.
"The photos here were all taken secretly by us. However, the defense there was too tight, so we hid when we took the photos, and the shooting results were not that good."
Li Yuntao took it, opened it and flipped through it for a while, smiling and nodding: "Very good. It seems that you have done a thorough investigation. Not bad, not bad."
After saying that, he sent the document bag to General Zeng.
General Zeng also looked through it twice curiously: "Thank you for your hard work. These photos are left in the command team. Do you have any objections?"
Captain You said happily: "If we can be accepted by the command team and make some contributions to the command team, our trip will not be in vain."
"Any other discoveries?"
"Yes, the roots of the weird tree are really developed, and all the surrounding plants are controlled by the roots of the weird tree. The closer to the core area, the higher the defense level and the more manpower. I estimate that the agents alone
There are at least tens of thousands of people, not including the massive tree charms and countless evil monsters. My preliminary judgment is that if we want to attack the weird tree camp, we will not only have to face those plants,
Including those countless agents and tree charms. This battle is not going to be easy."
"However, the Weird Tree must have been impacted by something recently. It feels like their front lines have become tighter and tighter. The space for us to move inside is getting smaller and smaller. It is almost difficult to have any room to inquire about information in the back. We will see
I took the initiative to return because I couldn't do anything."
"At the same time, we are also worried that our side has not received the intelligence and launched an attack rashly, causing unnecessary casualties."
Captain You looked sincere and sincere.
If Li Yuntao hadn't already known the inside story, he might have been kept in the dark by the other party.
However, now is obviously not the time for a showdown.
"Director Yang, there are quite a lot of capable people in your Central and South Region! The Star City team is capable, and the Hengcheng team is not bad either. The more such teams, the better. Well, the command team is now empty of manpower, otherwise
, Temporarily transfer the Hengcheng team to the command team to listen to the instructions?" Li Yuntao took the initiative to make this request.
Yang Xiangchun's heart moved, how could this be done?
However, he looked calm and composed on his face and said with a smile: "I have no objection, Xiaoyou, the two commanders want to promote you, what do you think?"
Captain You looked grateful, but said firmly: "It is our honor to be recognized by the two commanders. However, I also heard Director Yang say before that Star City's team made great achievements and captured the Yuncheng stronghold. We will always
The city team is not willing to be left behind, but also wants to participate in the front line of the battle. Not wanting to be laughed at by others, they will only hide at the headquarters to take some time off."
