In the office.
Lao Li looked at Li Yuan, picked up his teacup and deliberately asked, "Can you figure out why Tan Hengqiang sent someone to look for me at this time?"
Li Yuan thought about it seriously and said, "I can roughly guess that the alliance will give an attitude to the higher-ups."
Lao Li nodded with satisfaction: "Since you can figure it out, then go and talk."
"good!"
"Oh, by the way, call Liuzi and ask him to come back quickly. There are a lot of things waiting for him to deal with here." Lao Li urged.
"I called." Li Yuan responded immediately: "He is helping the Chi Army to negotiate integration. He should be back after the discussion."
…
Sri Lanka.
Inside the headquarters of the Third Division, Xin Xiaodong originally wanted to rely on the ten thousand men under his command to defeat Gou Liuzi, but he did not expect that the other party was tougher than him and was unwilling to say any soft words.
The atmosphere in the room was a little awkward. After Xin Xiaodong calmed down for a long time, he frowned and said, "If the Mexican army doesn't want to keep me, we can just lead the troops to South Africa. I don't believe that someone with a gun can't find someone to take over in the end...!"
“Ouch!”
Before Xin Xiaodong could finish his words, Chief of Staff Wu came in from outside and shouted at Su Tianyu with a kind face: "Isn't this Special Envoy Su? I am sorry for not welcoming you from afar. I am so disrespectful!"
Su Tianyu immediately stood up, extended his hand and said, "Hello, Chief of Staff Wu. I am just a small character who runs errands for the leader. Please don't call me a special envoy, otherwise I will be flattered so much that I won't know my own name...!"
"Ha ha!"
Chief of Staff Wu smiled and extended his hand to gesture for him to sit down: "Sit down, sit down!"
"good!"
The two men sat down, and Su Tianyu looked at Chief of Staff Wu. He had already fully understood the motives of the Third Division.
It was obvious that Xin Xiaodong was the player who came out to take the lead and play the villain, and Old Wu must have been eavesdropping in another room just now. He came out to smooth things over when he saw that Xin Xiaodong could not control the situation.
"Haha, how was the talk?" Chief of Staff Wu asked the two with a smile after sitting down.
Xin Xiaodong turned his head and said nothing more.
Seeing that Old Wu had shown up, Su Tianyu stopped pretending and immediately changed his mind: "Alas, such a big thing happened in Longcheng, and our Third Division is in the center of the storm. The situation is difficult, so it is normal for everyone to be a little emotional."
Chief of Staff Wu took over the conversation: "Yes, it's hard to survive now. We don't have much choice."
Su Tianyu was silent for a moment, then looked at the two of them solemnly and said, "To be honest, the Third Division is in such a difficult situation now, which is more or less related to us. But then again, before today, we all had our own positions. As friends, we should help each other; but as opponents, we must first ensure the maximization of our own interests."
Xin Xiaodong sneered when he heard this: "You sound so nice! The Third Division is in this situation today, is it just because of you?! Isn't this a bit unscrupulous? We have come to this point today because of your trap... Even now, you are unwilling to say a soft word!"
Su Tianyu looked at him coldly: "Did I ask you to accept bribes from the Red Group? Did I force you to make money in Longcheng?! A piece of cake was placed on the table, and you reached out to take it first, eating it faster than anyone else, fearing that you would not be able to grab it. In the end, it was poisoned, and you put all the blame on the chef. Isn't this a bit too much?"
"you… !"
"That's enough." Chief of Staff Wu waved his hand and interrupted Xin Xiaodong: "It's meaningless to talk about the past over and over again."
Su Tianyu was silent.
Chief of Staff Wu looked solemn, and after a long pause, he added, "But no matter what, the Xin family and our generals have indeed made a lot of efforts in this matter. Since we want to integrate, we must wear the same pants and shout the same slogan. If we don't let the brothers completely resolve the knots in their hearts, it will definitely affect the integration of the two families."
When Fei Pingsheng heard this, he nodded unconsciously and thought that this was indeed a veteran, as he spoke concisely and got to the point in one sentence.
Su Tianyun pondered for a while and said, "Then let's do it quickly. The Third Division will be under the leadership of the Chi Army, but the military expenditure will be calculated independently. It will have autonomy and decision-making power in military operations in small areas. The defense zone will also be divided better for you. You can temporarily stay in Hualei Town, which is the base camp of the Chi Army. It has a good public base and tax revenue. This is our greatest sincerity."
The conditions proposed by Su Tianyu were absolutely sincere and took full consideration of the emotional issues of the Third Division's generals. Otherwise, he would never agree to give the Chi Army's base camp to the Third Division for stationing.
Chief of Staff Wu hesitated for a while and asked, "What's the position?"
"Commander Xin will serve as the commander of the Third Army and deputy commander-in-chief of the Chi Army. He will have voting rights in major military strategic meetings." Su Tianyu said softly, "But the condition is that the Third Division must give up a few military chief positions and let the Chi Army arrange some people to come. Similarly, the Chi Army will also give up some positions and take the lead in integration."
Chief of Staff Wu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, there's no problem with the general direction. That's settled. I'll discuss the follow-up details with Zhao Weihu, because Lao Xin is seriously injured now, and he doesn't have the energy to think about these things."
"OK!"
After the two sides finished probing each other, the rest of the negotiations went very smoothly.
Xin Xiaodong played the role of the bad guy, which was considered to have won some benefits for the Third Division. As for Su Tianyu, as long as there was no principled dispute, it didn't matter whether he gave the other party more or less benefits.
He just confronted Hsin Xiaodong for one purpose, which was to tell him that since you are here, don't give me a hard time. If you talk nicely, I will give in to you, but if you are too pretentious, there is no boss here.
After talking for more than half an hour, Su Tianyu stood up first and said solemnly to Chief of Staff Wu and Xin Xiaodong: "For all the previous events, on behalf of Tongji Association, the Chi Army, and the Lao Li team, I apologize to you. Because of our stance, we must first consider our survival interests when doing things. But after today, everyone will eat from the same pot and sleep on the same kang. Whoever touches the Third Division is touching our collective! We will resist with all our strength, regardless of who is ours!! "
When Xin Xiaodong heard this, his expression eased a little.
"We have no choice but to stick together for warmth. I hope that our relationship in the future will be more than just about interests." Chief of Staff Wu shook hands with Su Tianyu.
…
at the same time.
Li Yuan returned to Li Mingsheng's office and said concisely: "Old Tan's staff said that the garrison headquarters is interested in having the guard regiment and our terrorist team conduct a three-day security inspection to completely resolve the chaos in Longcheng..."
"Haha." Lao Li sneered when he heard this: "The biggest source of the chaos is their garrison. How dare you say that?! Oh, okay, let's just leave it at that."
"That district called you back to give a report...?"
"Let's wait for Liuzi to come back first." Lao Li replied indifferently.
