As the capital of the Red Hat Army, Desola endured two days of attack and defense. Most of the city was devastated and the surrounding towns were almost all reduced to ruins.
Looking around, there was flames of war burning everywhere, spreading into the city.
At this time, the city center was relatively safe under layers of protection and was not affected by the war.
In the government building, Kang Dinghuang stood in his office, looking at the huge sand table in front of him. His eyes were somewhat empty and he had a slight tinnitus.
He couldn't help but pinch his eyebrows, and a deep sense of fatigue appeared on his face.
"Director, are you okay?" Seeing his appearance, the secretary came forward and asked with concern.
Kang Dinghuang waved his hand gently, held the sand table, and fell into deep thought again.
He traveled a long way from District 1 to this war-torn city for a simple purpose, which was to give Bayin Yaqiao a shot of adrenaline and help him regain his confidence. However, facing a huge gap in military strength, this method of boosting morale was of little use. The battle on the front line was not going smoothly. In recent days, the outer defense line of Desola gradually collapsed. Bayin Yaqiao organized several counterattacks, but they did not have any effect.
Such an unfavorable situation made Kang Dinghuang very anxious. He held onto the sand table and felt a little tight in his chest, and his eyes also had double vision.
After a long pause, Kang Dinghuang slowly stood up, walked to the chair next to him and sat down, and said to the secretary: "Bring my medicine."
The secretary couldn't help but whispered, "Director, you can't take it anymore. You have already taken medicine three times today."
Kang Dinghuang slightly emphasized his tone and repeated, "Bring it here."
The secretary said nothing more, turned and left the room to help get the medicine.
"Ding Ling Ling!"
Just as the office door was closed, the phone rang. Kang Dinghuang took out his cell phone and answered the call: "Hello?"
Kong Zhenghui's voice came from the microphone: "Director Kang, the itinerary for the upper level to visit Longcheng has been finalized. I have sent the complete process to your mobile phone."
Kang Dinghuang paused for a moment and asked, "Who are the main participants?"
"There is Commander Wang, the Chief of Foreign Affairs of our Military and Political Council, and..." Kong Zhenghui said six or seven names in a row.
Kang Dinghuang frowned and remained silent for a long time.
In fact, he was disgusted by this action, but he still suppressed his emotions and asked, "Has the work of the Security Council been arranged?"
"This is what I want to report to you." Kong Zhenghui said immediately: "Our Security Association has received the task of promoting public opinion on the scene. I have arranged 250 internal personnel, all of whom were with me in the Huatong Association before. They are very reliable. Let them pretend to be anti-war citizens in the occupied areas, cooperate with the leaders' speeches, and help us carry out further propaganda."
Kang Dinghuang thought for a moment and then asked, "What about the security plan? Have you confirmed it?"
"Yes, it has been confirmed." Kong Zhenghui immediately replied: "The main security work will definitely be carried out by the Qingyi Bureau. But after the leaders arrive, the security work of the host party will be done by us, including some activity locations and so on."
Kang Dinghuang pondered for a while, then slowly said, "This is a good decision. There is no problem. You can report the detailed list and personal information of the 250 people later."
Kong Zhenghui answered straightforwardly: "Okay! I will definitely send you all the complete information before the event starts."
Kang Dinghuang nodded gently: "Okay, that's it, get busy."
"Um."
After they hung up the phone, Kang Dinghuang sat in a chair, rubbing his aching head and thinking for a long time.
Soon, the office door was pushed open and the secretary walked in again: "Director Kang, your medicine."
"Yeah." Kang Dinghuang took the pill and put it into his stomach with hot water.
After a while, the headache and dizziness gradually subsided, and Kang Dinghuang's thoughts became much clearer. He thought for a while, picked up his phone, and called Commander Wang directly.
"Hey, Xiaokang, how's the situation over there?"
"..." Kang Dinghuang was silent for a while, and suddenly asked: "Commander... do you really have to go?"
Commander Wang naturally knew what he was asking. He paused and said, "If you guys could win, I wouldn't have to go. It's a pity that you didn't win..."
Hearing this, Kang Dinghuang fell silent again, and after a while he said, "Kong Zhenghui just gave me a report. I think the security work of the reception party cannot be left to Kong Zhenghui. Let's change people, let's hand it over to the Qingyi Bureau, or your guard regiment."
Commander Wang was stunned for a moment, but didn't say anything.
The two started chatting about other things, and after about five minutes, they hung up the phone.
Kang Dinghuang put his phone on the table, reached out to pick up the cigarette box from the table, and lit a cigarette for himself. Looking at the slowly rising smoke rings, he fell into deep thought.
In fact, deep down, Kang Dinghuang was very opposed to the plan of the Longcheng delegation. He felt that the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Legion was like a clown being manipulated by others when he went to the war zone to do such a show. It was shameful and ugly.
But in fact, they are now clowns! The Chinese are the ones who are rebelling, and the bigger the war gets, the more frustrated they become. Therefore, the Chinese groups that are currently in the first district have a very sensitive relationship with the upper class.
Now, the situation on the Mexican battlefield has been reversed, and those Chinese living in Area 1 have even less say.
Thinking of this, Kang Dinghuang slowly closed his eyes, quickly sorted out his emotions, and continued to plan the follow-up plans in his mind.
…
Area 1, the headquarters of the Security Association.
In the corridor, Kong Zhenghui and a dozen staff members were walking quickly. They were in a hurry, holding a pile of documents in their hands, and talking about something while walking.
"Just do as I said before, and hurry up!" Kong Zhenghui handed a document he had just read to the staff member next to him, then turned around and said to the secretary: "Hurry up and make a detailed report on the list of 250 people. The more detailed the better, and send it to the Qingyi Bureau immediately!"
"Okay." The secretary nodded.
Kong Zhenghui looked at Kong Zhengqi again and said hurriedly, "In addition, the internal security work will be done by our action team. Set up control points along the way in advance, and Xiaoqi will be responsible for this matter."
"Okay, I understand!" Kong Zhengqi also responded quickly.
"Next, it's the work on the venue..." Kong Zhenghui did not slow down and continued to arrange the work.
"Ding Ling Ling!"
At this moment, the phone rang suddenly. Kong Zhenghui took out his phone from his pocket and scanned the caller ID. He found that it was the deputy director of the Qingyi Bureau. He thought about it and answered the call: "Hello?"
The voice on the other side said calmly: "President Kong, I just received a message from the headquarters. Considering that your Security Council has been busy recently and is short of staff, the headquarters has decided that the security work of the Longcheng visiting delegation, which was originally handled by your host, will now be handed over to Commander Wang's guard regiment."
Hearing this, Kong Zhenghui suddenly stopped and subconsciously clenched his fists, instantly recalling the previous conversation with Kang Dinghuang.
He paused for a while and said in a cold voice: "Okay..."
…
Area 1, somewhere.
Yu Mingyuan was smoking a cigarette and standing in the middle of an abandoned factory.
After waiting for a long time, two cars without lights on drove over quietly and stopped in the dark yard. Several figures opened the car doors and walked out.
Yu Mingyuan turned his head and saw that the leaders among these people were Yao Doudou, Tang Yao, Daxiong, Monkey, etc. He threw away his cigarette butt and immediately went over to meet them.
Yao Doudou saw him and grinned: "Long time no see."
Yu Mingyuan hugged him and said, "Let's go all in and go home!"
