Zhang Xu's hair stood on end. He clearly saw the cold glint in Ye Longlin's eyes!
"Xiao Bao, don't go any closer!"
Zhang Xu quickly warned, a feeling of impending doom surging within him. He couldn't help but regret his actions today. If it weren't for him, perhaps his family wouldn't be suffering this disaster!
Xiao Bao turned, looking curiously at Ye Longlin with a puzzled expression, "What fun thing!"
Ye Longlin extended his hand, and Xuan Niao understood, handing him a pistol. Ye Longlin took it and held it, "A pistol, want to play with it?"
"Yes, yes, give it to me, I want to play!"
Upon seeing the pistol, Xiao Bao's eyes lit up, and he immediately ran over. But at this moment, Ye Longlin stood up and did not hand it to him.
"Hey, what do you mean? I'm telling you, if you don't give it to me, I'll have my dad beat you to death. I order you to give it to me!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Xu fell to his knees with a thud, burying his head deep in the ground, not daring to look up.
What was this, if not seeking death?
The next second, Ye Longlin slapped Xiao Bao across the face, sending him flying and knocking him unconscious.
"If you don't know how to discipline your descendants, I can help you."
After speaking, Ye Longlin strode forward, looking at the mourning hall in front of him, and waved his hand.
Xuan Niao took a floor-standing coat rack from the room, and then, Zhang Yi's military uniform was presented to everyone.
With a star on his shoulder, standing tall and unyielding!
There were also over ten military decorations on his chest, shining brilliantly under the sun.
The long-sealed military uniform should have been given to him before his retirement, but at that time, due to frequent periods of war, it was put aside. Later, the Hall of Honor issued an order that unless there was no other way, the files of Dragon Pavilion soldiers should not be casually investigated.
This matter was completely delayed.
Until his death, Zhang Yi never received the treatment of a general for a single day.
"Peace is established by generals, yet generals do not enjoy peace! General Zhang, travel well!"
Two hundred miles away on Gongming Mountain, hundreds of thousands of ordinary residents of the southern province, who had been eagerly waiting, finally saw the first bus, adorned with white flowers.
The speed was not fast. Along the way, people kept scattering carnation petals, trying to commemorate the man who had fought on the battlefield for the first half of his life.
As the convoy passed, the long-burning lamps inexplicably extinguished one by one.
An elderly person broke down in tears, wailing, "Hero, you've come home!"
It was as if the entire city had come, as if this cold city had come alive at this moment.
After about five hours of driving, they finally reached the mountain. On the mountain, many people had already sealed off the area completely. Li Mingteng, Wang Shao, and others were already present on a scaffold erected overnight by Dragon Pavilion soldiers.
"Has Wang Hanyuan not sent his son over yet?"
On Gongming Mountain, Ye Longlin asked with his hands behind his back.
Yuan Gang shook his head, "We haven't seen any trace of the Wang family yet, but since last night, Wang Hanyuan and Old Man Wang haven't left the villa. We don't know what they are doing."
"Have someone urge them. Give them only ten minutes," Ye Longlin said slowly.
"Yes!"
This time, they had completely offended the highest department.
His identity was already very sensitive within the nation. According to his age, he should only be an ordinary member of the Military Review Committee, and that would be the end of it.
But he was not only a member but also an active soldier in the Hall of Honor and a heavyweight in the military.
Therefore, he had many identities, naturally displeasing some people.
Now, by acting against the highest department, he would definitely arouse considerable dissatisfaction from some quarters.
Yuan Gang clearly understood his boss's temper. The more you dislike me, the happier I am, and I even want to jump around in front of you.
In short, that was basically the boss's temper.
He truly offended people, but at least no one dared to attack him openly yet.
Did they really think that being a military heavyweight was a joke?
"Ye Longlin, my grandfather is a leader in the highest department. If you dare to kill me, prepare to face accountability from the highest department, and you will die too!"
"If you let me go, I will also plead with my grandfather to spare your dog life. This is such a good deal, think about it yourself. No one wants to die. As long as you let me go, I guarantee you can live well. I'll even give you money, fifty million, enough for you to live a life of leisure!"
After burying Zhang Yi's coffin, it was time for the scaffold scene.
Wang Shao seemed to sense something, his expression astonished as he roared.
He was truly afraid that Ye Longlin would kill him. Although he had a powerful background, facing a decisive soldier, he still dared not gamble.
Dense Dragon Pavilion soldiers were all over the mountain, turning almost the entire mountain into a military restricted zone.
"Fire a salute!"
On this day, Gongming Mountain experienced a heavy rain, a rain of bullets that lasted for half an hour.
"Today, we will use your blood to commemorate our Dragon Pavilion soldiers!"
Ye Longlin waved his hand and said in a deep voice.
The few second-generation heirs in front were so terrified that their souls were almost gone, and they soiled themselves.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
A series of gunshots rang out, and several young men on the scaffold met their maker on the spot!
However, only the Zhang family knew that what was here was merely a cenotaph, and Zhang Yi's remains had been secretly transported to the Hall of Heroes in the capital by cremation.
This matter had also been discussed with Zhang Lanying, and Zhang Lanying had agreed.
This grand funeral finally came to an end, and the Great Summer Heavenly King, who had been active throughout the funeral and had been watched by all parties, also disappeared.
Some said he returned to the capital, others said he was still in the southern province, but regardless, at least after this incident, no one dared to casually provoke retired soldiers.
"Boss, Wang Yanwen has left. Wang Hanwen's body was found in the living room. According to the autopsy results, he died of poisoning."
A few hours after this news reached Ye Longlin's ears, he received several other pieces of news.
After returning to the highest department, Wang Yanwen submitted his resignation and returned to the southern province to live in seclusion and retire.
Three hours after Wang Yanwen's departure, the Hall of Honor issued the "Protection Law for Retired Soldiers," which was included in the national criminal law and took effect from the date of promulgation.
Meanwhile, Ye Longlin, who was in the villa at this time, was sitting on the balcony on the third floor, enjoying the evening breeze and sipping tea.
He also watched Mu Hanqi practicing yoga. It had to be said, Mu Hanqi had a really good figure.
As if sensing Ye Longlin's gaze, Mu Hanqi's pretty face blushed slightly, and she glared at Ye Longlin playfully, "Hey, if you want to look, look openly. What are you hiding for?"
"Ye Longlin, honestly, is my figure good or not? Do you have any other intentions? I won't resist, you know."
