In the next few days, Qin Yu did not show up in public, but instead recuperated in the department hospital, while Lao Li, Lao Mao and others were responsible for negotiating capital with District 8.

The two sides quickly reached an agreement, and Lao Li also signed strategic cooperation agreements with many banks and financial institutions in the eight districts in the name of the Sichuan Prefecture Autonomous Federation. However, what is interesting is that these bigwigs did not ask the Sichuan Prefecture to pledge any assets, projects, and land. Instead, after signing various agreement rules, they notified the departments to prepare for allocation.

...

Half a month has passed.

In the exercise area of ​​District 9 and Erlonggang, Sha Zhongwei, the core general of the Sha Clan, met with Commander Liu Weiren of the Second World War Zone for the first time.

In the sand tent, a group of middle-aged generals were sitting at the dining table, holding a knife, cutting roasted lamb leg meat.

Sha Zhongwei said to Liu Weiren in a cheerful voice: "Old Liu, your division is really good at this confrontation exercise! At the beginning, our two European regiments were blocked at Sanquankou. Before we could react, we were beaten to a 2:1 loss. To be honest, your division's combat effectiveness is far beyond our division headquarters' estimates."

"Exercise and actual combat are two different things." Liu Weiren replied with a light smile: "You European Corps are used to being arrogant. It is normal not to take our old hats seriously, haha!"

"No, no." Sha Zhongwei waved his hand: "I'm not saying this to you, I'm not wearing a high hat for you. Although the exercise is not as good as actual combat, it can also test many problems. If you fight well, you will be good at fighting."

Liu Weiren picked up the wine glass: "Then thank you Lao Sha for your praise, haha!"

"You are so polite." Sha Zhongwei collided with the other party and drank it all in one go.

Putting down the wine glass, Sha Zhongwei took a sip of food and said with a chuckling, "Old Liu, this exercise was organized by the General Political Department of the Military Department, and you informed your division headquarters in advance... Haha, isn't Commander Zhou dissatisfied?"

Liu Weiren was stunned for a moment and immediately shook his head: "No, Commander Zhou is not in good health recently. The work of the Second World War Command is under the leadership of the General Staff. I have never heard of him, what does he think about this matter."

"Haha, is it true?" Sha Zhongwei asked.

"What am I lie to you?" Liu Weiren continued: "But to be honest, it is actually quite difficult for me to do this in the military headquarters. After an order from the upper level, we will be transferred directly to Erlonggang. What do you think? Go, I'm afraid that the upper level of the Second World War Command will be dissatisfied; if you don't go, you will disobey. Oh... I'm really making it so bad that I'm not a human inside or outside."

"Haha, what's the reason why it's not human inside or outside? The General Political Department of the Military Department has the right to command all military units. As generals, we obey the highest order, and that's the responsibility, and no one can find fault." Sha Zhongwei replied with a smile.

"That's right, but... people in the officialdom will inevitably abide by some unspoken rules." Liu Weiren replied, "You will react with the above next time, don't do this. If the colleagues in the Second World War Zone really have an opinion on me, our future path will become narrower and narrower."

"Haha, OK!" Sha Zhongwei nodded.

Liu Weiren lit a cigarette, glanced at the other party's reaction with his eyes, and didn't say anything else.

"Old Liu, I actually have a lot to say. I've wanted to tell you a long time ago." Sha Zhongwei finished laying the groundwork and said in a tempting manner: "With your division's combat effectiveness and the command ability of your officers' regiment, you should have gone a step further."

"How do you say this?"

"Actually, Commander Chen and our General Political Department like you very much." Sha Zhongwei whispered: "If Zheng Kai hadn't blocked you, you would have probably been a major general."

"Take it down." Liu Weiren curled his lips and waved his hand: "The label on me is too obvious. Moreover, I was the leader of Qin Yu before. In many things, I did not satisfy the General Affairs Office of the Military Affairs Department... It would be strange if the upper class liked me."

"I'm telling the truth." Sha Zhongwei replied softly: "Qin Yu's problem does have a certain impact on you, but if you look at this matter in detail, you are actually in a dilemma. Commander Zhou wants to protect him, so don't you have no choice!"

"You said this, that's right." Liu Weiren nodded immediately and replied, "I had no choice but to take care of Qin Yu. First of all, Commander Zhou valued him very much, and Qin Yu himself had a very close relationship with the Wu family and the Feng family... Then what can I do? I can only fully understand the leader's intentions."

"This is the reason." Sha Zhongwei nodded.

"Oh, nowadays, it's too difficult to do something, and it's impossible to take care of any side." Liu Weiren sighed.

"Old Liu, although we were not very familiar with each other before, we were still considered a junior brother from the academy." Sha Zhongwei intervened and said, "I'm going to hide it from you. The upper class may want to promote a large number of young generals in the near future. You have to seize the opportunity."

"How to grasp it?" Liu Weiren asked with interest.

"It's a foregone conclusion that Commander Chen Wanzhou has entered the General Political Department of the Military Affairs Department to serve as the Minister of the Regional Security Department." Sha Zhongwei whispered: "He has absolute say on this promotion list. I personally suggest that you ask him for a while when you have nothing to do and communicate with him more."

When Liu Weiren heard this, he replied with a embarrassed look: "This... this is not OK, right? I secretly asked Commander Chen to let outsiders know...?"

"Old Liu, I'm just too cautious when I want me to do things." Sha Zhongwei replied with a smile: "This is why you can't raise it. Look at Qin Yu, he was just a colonel at the beginning, but now he's on the same level as you. Why can he come up? To put it bluntly, isn't he just dare to place bets?!"

Liu Weiren was silent.

"Although the brigade general and the major general are only one level apart, there is no opportunity, and that is never enough for the rest of your life." Sha Zhongwei reminded again: "This time, the general government of the military department should promote young cadres and backbone forces on a large scale. That is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. You have to seize it!"

"Do I have a chance?" Liu Weiren asked.

"I put my words here. As long as you have an attitude, you will at least be a major general." Sha Zhongwei said firmly.

Liu Weiren blinked, picked up the wine glass and replied, "Then thank you, Senior Brother Sha for pointing out this clear road!"

"It's done, you owe me a drink, haha!" Sha Zhongwei smiled and picked up the wine glass.

...

One and a half hours later.

Liu Weiren returned to the camp in a military vehicle and looked out the window with complicated eyes.

In the camp, Sha Zhongwei held the phone and whispered: "Commander, I can't figure out what he thinks, so I didn't understand it too clearly to him. But I have already hinted at what he should have, and it depends on what he will do next."

"Yes." Chen Wanzhou responded.

Songjiang, Tuzha Street Military Intelligence Bureau Branch Station.

"Report!" A military intelligence officer walked into the webmaster's office.

Ma Lao Er looked up and said, "Say!"

"The news came from Erlonggang that Liu Weiren and Sha Zhongwei met and drank wine today." Military intelligence personnel put the information on the table and said, "We have not found the specific content yet."
