The next day, early in the morning.

Xiang Zehao received a call from the General Administration Headquarters of the Military Headquarters and asked him to rush over for a meeting.

...

11 a.m.

In the conference room of the General Political Department Building of the Military Affairs Department, the Chief of General Staff made sharp criticisms of the Self-Defense Forces' privately mobilized troops to attack the 109 base and the Self-Defense Forces without any report, so he opened fire on the Liberal Party forces.

At the meeting, Xiang Zehao sat on the left, inserted his hands, raised his head, and said nothing.

"I hope that the generals of the Self-Defense Forces can understand that every soldier and every officer you command is the military defense force of the Ninth District, not your private property!" The Chief of General Staff said seriously: "You do not have any right to mobilize troops to satisfy some of your emotions! This is an extremely naive and irresponsible behavior, and should be severely punished."

Xiang Zehao looked at him expressionlessly, but still said nothing.

"Read the punishment decision!" The Chief of General Staff held the document and said in a concise manner: "Xiang Zehao, the commander of the Self-Defense Army, privately mobilized troops to conduct military activities due to personal emotions... He was resigned as the commander and went to the Political Department of the Command to study. The commander of the Self-Defense Army, temporarily held by Zhan Zhengchong...!"

After the Chief of General Staff read out the headquarters' penalty decision, the scene was silent, and ten generals of the Self-Defense Army were beaten and were sent to the Political Department to study.

"Comrade Xiang Zehao, do you have any objections to this punishment?" asked the General Staff.

"No objection." Xiang Zehao replied lightly.

"What do you think of the notice from the Party, Government and Military Organization Department?" The General Staff turned his head and asked again.

The Organization Department Minister glanced at Xiang Zehao and said with a blank expression: "Our Organization Department has no objection."

"The meeting ended!" The General Staff announced the end of the meeting.

Xiang Zehao stood up after hearing the sound, took the generals of the Self-Defense Army, and walked outside.

"Xiao Xiang, let's talk for a few words." Shen Wanzhou shouted with his hands behind his back.

Xiang Zehao glanced at the other party and walked over: "Do you have any instructions? Commander Shen!"

The followers next to him dispersed, and Shen Wanzhou smiled and said to Xiang Zehao: "You know that this decision was not made by the General Administration Headquarters."

"I know." Xiang Zehao nodded.

"The matter has happened, the upper class must have an attitude." Shen Wanzhou patted Xiang Zehao on the shoulder: "You are the new leader of the party and government. You can find a place to purify for a while. When you come back, the commander will be yours, but you can't be so impulsive when doing things in the future."

Xiang Zehao looked at him: "Commander Shen, even if I am a regiment commander, I will order the troops to open fire on Base No. 109! The upper level will punish you and do things according to the rules. I have nothing to say, haha, that's it."

Seeing that Xiang Zehao was not following his words, Shen Wanzhou had no idea of ​​getting closer to him, so he just smiled and nodded: "Okay, that's it!"

"You are busy, Commander Shen!" Xiang Zehao turned around and left.

"It's a pity that I can't control my temper, alas." Shen Wanzhou looked at Xiang Zehao's back, sighed and said, and took his own people away.

...

The General Political Department of the Military Department has no actual power to manage the Party, Government, Self-Defense Forces. The Party, Government, and the military and government only created a nominal superior and subordinate level due to cooperative relations, but in fact, the Self-Defense Forces are still operated independently.

Therefore, the punishment did not come from the decision of the General Political Department Command of the Military Department, but from the upper-level party and government. They agreed that the headquarters gave such punishment, which is why Xiang Zehao did not refute and get angry at the meeting.

In the past, the backbone of the party and government of the young faction led by Xiang Zehao had political views and ideas with some old power factions. The two sides had deep grudges, but the latter did not appear to have any conflicts with him because Xiang Zehao was the son of the chief.

But this time, the Self-Defense Forces suddenly opened fire, neither greeting the top party and government, nor notifying the Military and Political Command. Therefore, the old guys could no longer control their unhappiness, so they put pressure on General Xiang, which led to the act of punishing Xiang Zehao.

Xiang Zehao was clear about these intrigues, but he didn't care, and he didn't feel regretful.

After leaving the General Political Department Building of the Military Headquarters, Xiang Zehao stepped into the military vehicle.

The 125th Division Commander sat in the co-pilot and whispered: "Commander, do you want to go home?"

The teacher's words are very obvious. He just wants Xiang Zehao and his father to be embarrassed.

"Don't call the commander." Xiang Zehao replied lightly: "I'll be a squad leader after going to the Political Department."

"Commander, don't be too stubborn if you listen to me." The commander of the 125th Division was promoted by Xiang Zehao. The relationship between them was like Qin Yu, Xiaobai and others, so they didn't have so much concern.

"I'm not stubborn." Xiang Zehao waved his hand and replied, "I have a different view from them. I have never thought it was a mistake to open fire at Base No. 109. So what did you tell him to go home?"

The commander of the 125th Division had a helpless expression and did not respond.

"...Arranging the plane to go to Beifengkou." Xiang Zehao thought for a while and said, "I want to meet Wu Tianyin."

"Okay!" The commander of the 125th Division nodded.

Xiang Zehao was beaten to the commander, and he still had to do whatever he should do. He said he wanted to go to the Political Department’s further training class to be the squad leader, but in fact he had no intention of going there at all.

In this matter, Lao Xiang did not call his son, and the latter did not mean to contact him.

...

That night.

A helicopter landed in the compound of the Wu Mercenary Group headquarters. Wu Tianyin, wearing a military coat, greeted a group of people, reached out to Xiang Zehao and said, "Hello, Commander Xiang!"

Xiang Zehao did not shake hands with him first, but instead saluted Wu Tianyin with a standard military salute and replied softly: "Hello, Commander Wu!"

Wu Tianyin was stunned for a moment, and saluted, before shook hands with the other party: "Let's go, please come inside!"

After saying that, the group stepped towards the group building.

...

at the same time.

The General Staff of the Military and Political Headquarters of the 7th District took the initiative to contact the Gu Group of District 8th District.

That night, Gu Yan flew to Nanhu and met with the Chief of Staff of the Military and Political Headquarters. The two sides held secret talks on the military counterattack on the fifth zone and the unification of the Yan Island in the martial arts.

District 9.

Shen Fei sat in an office and whispered to several military personnel and said, "If you are going to fight, District 7 should also participate!"

"Then our side?!"

"The plan was set up two years ago and can be started." Shen Fei intervened and looked at everyone and said slowly: "This incident is my own command, and no news in any link cannot be disclosed."

"yes!"

"yes!"

“…!”
Chapter completed!
