Regulatory committee.
Deputy Police Chief Lao Guo stood in the empty stairwell and said to Lin You on the phone, "Yes, Chief, Lille has made the decision, and Baolong Mining has also agreed to do it. There are external regulators and upper-level connections to back them up, so our police department only needs to provide assistance."
Lin You was silent.
"Lille also said that we all believe in one God. Only when the supervision is good can everyone be well. If the supervision is not good, once Li Mingsheng is firmly established in Longcheng, no one will be well." Deputy Director Guo paused and said from his own standpoint: "We are already on this ship, and it is really difficult to extricate ourselves. Think about it, if Li Mingsheng stands firm this time, which unit will he clean up first? Who will he retaliate against? It must be our police department! The judicial department is not on the same page with him, and they have already torn their faces apart. How can he sleep well then?!"
Lin You pondered for a moment and asked, "Is Lille confident?"
"There is only one terrorist team in the city right now." Deputy Director Guo replied softly, "The higher-ups will also take action at the regulatory meeting. There are definitely risks, but we have no other choice."
Lin You took a puff of cigarette but still didn't make a decision.
Deputy Director Guo was a little anxious: "We can't hesitate now. The situation is very clear now. If you don't move the other side, they will move you. Otherwise, what's the point of doing this live broadcast? For the sake of negotiation? That's impossible!"
Lin You gritted his teeth and immediately replied, "Okay, that's it. We will cooperate with the supervision committee."
"Okay, I'll go talk to Lear."
The two finished chatting and ended the call.
Inside the compound of the Regulatory Commission, Miao Ziwei walked to the parking lot alone and waved at a commercial vehicle.
Four men got out of the car immediately. They were tall, wearing suits and had serious looks on their faces.
Miao Ziwei took out a cigarette case, lowered his head and said to the four people, "The mining industry is definitely not going to be able to be saved, and there will definitely be changes on the regulatory side, but the upper management is not willing to accept it, and neither am I. We can't let the other side get away with it before we pay the price."
"Tell me, what should we do?"
"Let Bai Yu go. The police department and the military intelligence department will secretly cooperate with him." Miao Ziwei lit a cigarette: "Hurry!"
The four of them nodded when they heard this.
…
Mayor's residence.
Li Mingsheng is currently directing people from the municipal department and the terrorist team to deal with the crime scene in the botanical garden.
In the small study, Li Mingsheng's staff also offered suggestions. Someone suggested that he should hold a press conference in the name of the city government to appease the people who had gathered and started protesting, which would improve Li Mingsheng's overall political image.
Some people also suggested that the union should be allowed to make some more noise, and then Li Mingsheng should come forward to calm the situation. This would achieve the perfect effect of first suppressing and then promoting.
In short, these aides had all kinds of ideas and their thoughts were very clear. Almost as soon as the live broadcast was over, they came up with multiple options for Lao Li.
In the study, Li Mingsheng had just hung up the phone, and before he turned around, he saw Ouyang Zhen walking in quickly.
"Lao Li, say a few words here."
"What's wrong?" Li Mingsheng followed.
"… Something happened to our troops on standby outside the area." Ouyang Zhen turned his head and looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "The 116th Regiment has been blocked by telecommunications."
Li Mingsheng was stunned for a moment: "What did the higher authorities say?"
"The higher-ups couldn't get in touch with the troops, so they immediately sent people over to investigate. They found that the three regiments of the Dragon City garrison had surrounded our reinforcements and blocked all the main roads. There has been no conflict between the two sides so far, but once the communication is cut off, the people inside can't get in touch with the higher-ups, so they definitely won't dare to open fire easily." Ouyang Zhen's face was very serious: "... My personal guess is that they want to...!"
When Li Mingsheng heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched several times.
"We have to hide and not fall into their trap." Ouyang Zhen glanced at his watch and said, "Hide for now and wait for the higher-ups to come up with a response plan."
Li Mingsheng was a little angry, but more helpless. In this incident, the upper echelons of the Civil Affairs Bureau had fully supported him, but from an objective point of view, the control of this party alone over Longcheng was definitely not as good as that of the Supervisory Committee.
The garrisons around Longcheng mainly come from two units: one is the Longcheng Garrison Corps, which is mainly responsible for the military defense of the entire city and is under the leadership of the Chinese Corps Headquarters. A large number of senior commanders of the Chinese Corps are from the Republican faction.
Another group of garrison troops is the 125th Army of the Chinese Legion. This unit was urgently dispatched to the border of Longcheng for garrison after the civil war in Sinalo and Casaro areas. Its main role is to deter and prevent the war outside the border from extending inward. To put it bluntly, it is a force to protect the border and the people.
The 125th Army was a unit of the Civil Affairs Department. Ouyang Zhen had previously borrowed a regiment from it to fight against the supervision. However, the duty of this unit was to guard the border, and they could not leave the garrison area without permission, let alone enter the garrison territory of the garrison corps.
This is just like a field army that cannot suddenly return to the city without saying hello, because there is a possibility of military rebellion.
It is an indisputable fact that the Civil Affairs Department is relatively weak in Longcheng. At this moment, the only force that can support Li Mingsheng was suddenly blocked outside the district. What does this mean? In fact, it is self-evident.
Li Mingsheng thought about it for a moment and realized the seriousness of the matter: "Let's go first to the terrorist team."
"Okay." Ouyang Zhen immediately added: "Don't panic. We have also placed a heavy bet on this game. The upper echelons will not back down. As long as we survive tonight, the regulators will be at their wits' end, and Longcheng will be completely changed."
"Yes." Li Mingsheng turned around and shouted, "Everyone, quickly clean up your personal belongings, let's go!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the members of the terrorist squad entered a state of alert, and the staff and entourage in the room also began to pack up various documents.
About five minutes later.
Under the protection of hundreds of people, Li Mingsheng left his residence and prepared to leave by car.
On the dark and noisy street, Li Yuan looked back and suddenly asked, "Where is that little girl? Where is she?!"
“Da da da…!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of crisp gunfire suddenly spread throughout the street.
"Attack, attack!" The captain of the terrorist team immediately waved his hands and shouted, "Engage the enemy immediately!"
…
Three minutes later.
Su Tianyu, who was rushing to the mayor's mansion, received a call: "Hello?!"
"It's over. We can't suppress it anymore. Gunshots were heard from the leader's side. I don't know which unit is attacking the terrorist team." Yu Mingyuan's voice rang out.
"Damn it, the regulatory committee is really desperate!" Su Tianyu gritted his teeth and cursed.
