District 1 Washington DC Airport.
Three cars were driving towards the Regional Council at high speed. Kang Dinghuang was sitting in the car, urging them to go faster.
"good!"
The driver responded immediately.
Kang Dinghuang, who has been recuperating in the Sinaloa region for more than a month, learned of the decision of the Regional Council and the Chinese General Corps Command last night.
The upper echelons want to fight! They want to take over the garrison headquarters in Longcheng by force!
As soon as this resolution came out, Kang Dinghuang couldn't sleep at all. After thinking it over, he immediately left Sinalo and rushed back to Washington.
In the car, Kang Dinghuang kept looking at his watch, feeling very anxious!
…
Forty minutes later, in the meeting room of the Washington Metropolitan Area Council.
A group army commander of the Chinese Corps pointed to the map of Longcheng on the projection screen and said, "In my opinion, the 55th Army has been stationed in Longcheng for too short a time, and Anze City's control over the troops is very average, so the combat effectiveness that this unit can show is estimated to be very poor, not even third-rate. Therefore, we are mainly targeting the main force of the garrison corps, that is, the First Army under Tan Hengqiang! All the senior commanders of this unit are all trusted generals of the Tan faction, and there is almost no possibility of winning them over. In order to avoid the defection of the Third Division from happening again, I personally suggest that we remove the First Army at the beginning, and if necessary, we can use warships carrying intercontinental missiles and long-range strike firepower to try to make them lose their combat capability within three hours...!"
In the conference hall, dozens of bigwigs were sitting on chairs, listening to the battle plan of the army group commander.
It was obvious that the decision to take over the garrison corps by force had been agreed upon by the vast majority of people, and everyone had even begun discussing the battle plan.
"Some of the main military commanders of the 55th Army are our people. As long as an order is issued under the table, they will definitely not listen to An Zecheng's command." A general also expressed his opinion: "I think the general direction should still be to win them over, and the main goal is to strike at the stubborn elements of the Tan faction... This matter cannot be rushed. Our political team should also secretly enter Longcheng and do ideological work for those neutral generals and generals who can be won over...!"
Upon hearing this, the white leadership of the regional council all nodded slowly in agreement.
A white member of the regional council also frowned and said, "We don't want a fierce military war to happen in our territory... The level of conflict incidents must be kept to the lowest level...!"
While everyone was discussing, Kang Dinghuang had already rushed to the first floor lobby.
A dozen guards stopped Kang Dinghuang and asked him to take out the meeting invitation.
Kang Dinghuang had lived in the hospital in Sinalo for more than a month. How could he have an invitation? After the two sides failed to communicate, Lao Kang directly broke into the corridor under the protection of his entourage.
Kang Dinghuang rushed into the elevator and kept tapping the up button.
The elevator door slowly closed. Kang Dinghuang looked at the chaotic scene in the corridor, frowned and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Three minutes later.
“Bang!”
The door of the council hall was pushed open and Kang Dinghuang rushed in breathlessly.
Any leader picked out at random in the room would be much higher in rank than Kang Dinghuang, but everyone was also familiar with him, because the establishment of the Tsing Yi Bureau at that time was also an order issued by the Regional Council, and specific staff were drawn from the Chinese Corps.
"Oh, Kang, you are being rude?" A female congressman looked at him in disbelief: "We are in a meeting!"
Kang Dinghuang rushed into the room and shouted, "We can't fight! Once we start fighting, Longcheng will be lost! And we must also start a regional war with Lao Mo! By then, we will lose control of Longcheng and even the entire southern region!"
Everyone looked at Kang Dinghuang in surprise. One of the assistants to the chairman of the parliament stood up and said, "Kang, please respect the regional council...!"
"There's no respect for that!" Kang Dinghuang walked to the conference table and said to Zhou Jing'an, the deputy commander-in-chief of the Chinese Legion: "Fighting would be the stupidest decision!! We absolutely cannot control the garrison corps as ideally as we can!"
Zhou Jing'an glanced at Kang Dinghuang and did not give a positive response.
Next to the projection screen, the army commander put down the infrared pen, frowned at Kang Dinghuang and said, "You have been recovering from your injuries for more than a month, so you may not know much about the situation in Longcheng!"
"How do you know I don't know the situation?!" Kang Dinghuang excitedly slammed the table and shouted, "Don't forget, we have cooperated with the garrison several times. I know the situation there better than anyone else!"
"Tan Hengqiang has lost control of the garrison!" The army group commander frowned and retorted: "He, the chief of the general staff, and the deputy commander-in-chief have been under control for five days! But his soldiers and his generals did not show any abnormal reaction! This shows that some people in the garrison are dissatisfied with Tan Hengqiang. At least no one is willing to stand up and speak for him now!!"
Kang Dinghuang looked at him and shouted in disbelief: "Is this the conclusion you came up with?! Do you have your own calculations, or have you lost your basic judgment of form?"
"Kang, please speak politely!"
"I'm not polite at all!" Kang Dinghuang put his hands on the table and shouted loudly: "Leaders! Think about it! At this critical juncture, isn't the silence and quietness shown by the garrison more terrifying than a large group of people jumping out to make trouble?"
When the Speaker of the Parliament heard this, his brows furrowed.
"Tan Hengqiang was called back! But his family generals, his son, and all his direct generals are still in Longcheng!" Kang Dinghuang held the table: "But these people are not impatient, they abide by the law, and even strengthen military discipline! Is this common sense? I want to ask everyone, if your father was under house arrest, would you be so calm?!"
The council chamber was in complete silence.
"Longcheng's silence only shows one thing! That is, Tan Hengqiang and the Tan family's control over the garrison far exceeds our expectations!! They are using silence to fight against the upper class!!" Kang Dinghuang continued: "Once the fire starts, at least 90% of Longcheng's 60,000 troops will dare to use guns to fight against our regional troops! Why? Because Longcheng still has Li Mingsheng. If you attack the garrison, it is equivalent to pushing Tan Hengqiang to their side! If the military and the government join forces, will Longcheng still be Longcheng?! Don't forget that we still have the old Mexican government troops outside our country, as well as the Chinese capital that is ready to move!!"
Kang Dinghuang glanced at everyone: "I don't believe that the leaders in this conference room can't see this! I don't know why there is a resolution to take over by force! I just want to say that at this critical moment, I can't fight among myself or make my own calculations. Otherwise, once Longcheng is lost! The military and political changes in the entire southern region will be unpredictable!"
…
Inside the reception.
Tan Hengqiang stood at the window, quietly looking at the scenery outside, his heart surging.
For some reason, the words An Zecheng said to him yesterday kept appearing in his mind!
