Chapter 1 Lü Zhen's Plan

Lü Zhen had specifically returned to the base to arrange the Dragon City visit plan. After all, he was the closest and most trusted secretary to Commander Wang. It was most appropriate to entrust this matter to him.

After returning, Lü Zhen locked himself in his office and contacted the Qingyi Bureau and the General Commander's Guard Regiment to communicate with them.

About half an hour later, after communicating, they hung up the phone.

After a while, the office door was knocked on, and his staff member walked in and whispered to him, "Secretary-General, I looked for Yuan Biao, but he wasn't in the dormitory building. I asked his subordinates, and it seems he went to the military uniform service agency."

Lü Zhen was stunned for a moment and frowned, "Military uniform service agency? What's he doing there? Go find him and call him back!"

"Okay!" The staff member nodded and turned to leave.

"Wait!" Lü Zhen suddenly stopped him, got up, and said, "Forget it, I'll go."

Soon, Lü Zhen, with some guards, took a military vehicle and drove to the military uniform service agency.

This military uniform service agency is a unique department in the First District, quite large in scale. It mainly guarantees the soldiers' freedom, allowing them to visit their families during the war. In addition, the military uniform service agency also provides services such as mailing items. In short, it's very humane, but you have to pay for it yourself and accept strict inspections.

...

Twenty minutes later, Lü Zhen entered the military uniform service agency. After asking the front desk for the reception room where Yuan Biao was, he went straight upstairs and arrived at the door of a room on the fourth floor.

The door was ajar. Lü Zhen pushed it open and walked in. As soon as he entered, he heard a burst of intense panting in the room.

Lü Zhen looked intently and found Yuan Biao on the sofa, passionately kissing Xiao Yan...

Hearing the movement outside, Yuan Biao suddenly turned his head. Seeing that it was Lü Zhen, he froze.

After a three-second pause, Lü Zhen's face turned red, and he swallowed and said, "Well... you guys continue... I'll wait for you outside."

Xiao Yan quickly got up, tidied her messy hair, looked up at Lü Zhen, and said calmly, "Is this embarrassing? Hehe, come in and chat for a while?"

"No, no!" Lü Zhen quickly waved his hand. "You guys chat!"

With that, he turned and left the room, closing the door behind him.

This man was the most efficient man in the entire First District when it came to closing the door for his woman.

Yuan Biao turned back, stared at Xiao Yan, and said softly, "I must tell you, I hate the tone you used to talk to him just now."

"Okay, I won't do it again." Xiao Yan said, putting up her hair and tidying her clothes, while saying, "You talk to him, I'll go out for a while and come back tonight."

"Okay." Yuan Biao said, wiping the lipstick left on the corner of his mouth, and quickly left the room.

...

A few minutes later, in a nearby reception room.

Lü Zhen sat on the sofa, looking at Yuan Biao with a somewhat complicated expression. After a long silence, he asked awkwardly, "It seems you don't need my help anymore, right?"

Yuan Biao still had a touch of red at the corner of his mouth. He smiled and said, "Well, it's progressing quite fast."

"...Well!"

Lü Zhen paused, stopped talking about these things, reached out and took out some documents, and handed them to Yuan Biao, "This is the security mission. Read it carefully and get your people ready. After this is over, I plan to transfer you to the front lines."

Yuan Biao looked down at the documents in his hand and said indifferently, "No problem... As long as I get paid, my gun and I are ready to cover you."

This metaphor made Lü Zhen feel a little uncomfortable for some reason. He nodded and got up to walk out.

When he reached the door, he stopped and turned to look at Yuan Biao, "A woman, it's not easy to get where she is today, treat her well."

Yuan Biao glanced at him, "You're being a little hypocritical, aren't you?"

"Hehe, yeah, it's quite hypocritical." Lü Zhen smiled, didn't say anything more, and turned to leave the room.

...

A day later, Kong ZhengHui, with Kong ZhengQi and the Weian Council, rushed back to the front lines of Dragon City and met Lü Zhen.

In a dimly lit conference room, the two sat opposite each other.

Lü Zhen smoked a cigarette, looked up at Kong ZhengHui and asked, "The higher-ups told you, right? You don't need to do the security work for the reception."

Kong ZhengHui was stunned for a moment, then said, "They did. I'm just here to be responsible for guiding public opinion."

"That's good!" Lü Zhen nodded and continued, "I have to warn you in advance, you must control the interviewees and the public. Don't tell them the specific time, just have them be prepared all the time for activities. Also, everyone must be strictly screened, there must be no mistakes! Because you know who these visitors are."

Kong ZhengHui immediately replied, "Yes, I understand. The screening work will definitely be done well."

Lü Zhen slowly got up and said expressionlessly, "Knowing isn't enough, you have to do it! There can't be any more problems!"

Hearing this admonishing tone, Kong ZhengHui felt a burst of frustration in his heart for some reason, but he still got up and said with a smile, "Don't worry, there definitely won't be any mistakes this time!"

Lü Zhen nodded, "Okay, that's it then. After you've selected the list of personnel, send it to me, and I'll make a backup here as well. The specific visiting time may be the morning after tomorrow, or the morning of the day after that, just be prepared in advance."

"Understood!"

After the two finished talking, Kong ZhengHui walked away.

The situation on the Old Mo battlefield had been reversed, and Dragon City was also in imminent danger. At this juncture, the higher-ups in the First District not only decided to increase troops, but also arranged political activities in the occupied areas. The purpose was to appease the local people, and to express to the outside world their determination to suppress the rebellion in Dragon City!

But this so-called visit was mostly for show. Including the interviewees and the common people below, they were all old association members under Kong ZhengHui who had defected with him, in other words, they were all actors.

Therefore, the political component of the Weian Council in this event was very important, and Kong ZhengHui himself saw it very clearly.

That day, he held a meeting here with Kong Zhengqi and his core members for more than ten hours to perfect the plan from all aspects.

...

At the same time, Pana City.

After Su Tianyu finished a meeting with Li Mingsheng, An Zecheng, and Tan Hengqiang at the Tan faction's headquarters regarding the military layout of Dragon City, he met with Tan Mingchao alone.

Late at night, the moon and stars were sparse, and the forest occasionally echoed with the roars of wild beasts.

In the tent, Su Tianyu and Tan Mingchao sat around a stove, on which a pot of tea was boiling and bubbling.

After the water boiled, Su Tianyu added tea for the two of them and said softly, "What are your losses over there?"

Tan Mingchao thought for a moment and said with some heartache, "The casualties currently counted have exceeded half of the total number of people... The situation with the An faction and Xin Xiaodong is probably similar. This includes the wounded and the soldiers who went missing on the battlefield."

Su Tianyu's face was also very solemn. He sighed and said, "You have paid a bloody price for the unification of Old Mo..."

Tan Mingchao waved his hand, "Oh, it's all the same... They will also reinforce us."

The two gently clinked glasses and took a sip of tea.

After a moment's pause, Su Tianyu looked at the rising steam and said again, "These two days, I have a plan, but I can't tell you what it is. You need to cooperate with me on something."

Tan Mingchao thought for a moment and asked, "What is it? Is it related to counterattacking Dragon City?"

"Yes!" Su Tianyu picked up the teapot again and filled their cups with tea, "I plan to launch a full-scale counterattack against Dragon City when they least expect it. During this period, I need your troops to arrive at several designated locations to warm up! However, our support will be a little slow to arrive, because once a large-scale movement of troops from the Old Mo area happens, it will not be able to escape the First District's military reconnaissance. So before the main force arrives, you will have a little difficulty."

"What's that!" Tan Mingchao slapped his thigh and said, "No matter how difficult it is, it's the last difficulty before the dawn, which is much better than before! In the past, we just had to grit our teeth and hold on, not knowing when you would come. Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

Su Tianyu smiled and continued, "Okay, your mission is this..."

...

A day later, several military planes arrived at the First Corps' front-line suppression base.

Among those present were the top five political figures of the entire First District, as well as Commander Wang, the head of the Chinese Corps. Under the reception of Lieutenant General Mules, the commander of the First Corps, these people secretly and discreetly entered the base for temporary residence.

This news was extremely confidential, and only a few relevant departments knew about it.

...

Outside Dragon City, in a desolate town.

After lurking here for a few days, Yu Mingyuan, Yao Doudou, and Dai Quan finally received a call in the evening.

Immediately, Yu Mingyuan left alone with Yao Doudou, hiding in a forest on the outskirts of the town.

After a while, a military vehicle passed by here, slowly stopped by the roadside, and flashed its lights twice.

Seeing this scene, Yu Mingyuan turned his head and said to Yao Doudou, "The person has arrived..."

"I'm leaving!" Yao Doudou stretched out his calloused hands and patted Yu Mingyuan heavily on the shoulder. Then, carrying a narrow backpack, he got up and walked towards the military vehicle.
