In the meeting room of the sanatorium, Zhou Xian stood at the window and sighed: "Alas, let's not talk about the Xue family. Let's talk about something important."
Kang Dinghuang rubbed his palms: "Bana City?"
"Yes." Zhou Xian turned around, leaned his back against the window, and said in a very relaxed manner: "I'm going to move here."
Kang Dinghuang looked up at him and said, "Isn't it too early?! Su Tianyu has been quiet since he took Bruna away. If we strike first, it will be easy for the other party to see our cards clearly."
Zhou Xian shook his head: "It's getting late. The key point of the Bana City incident is control, not occupation. If you want to legally control it, you must support puppet politicians to come to power. Lao Li's team currently only has Bruna, who has little influence. She is not powerful enough to act as a puppet."
"What about Tagu? Is his weight enough?" Kang Dinghuang asked back.
"He is definitely qualified enough." Zhou Xian nodded and admitted, "In fact, he is the best candidate, but..."
"That's what I'm worried about. If things are done too hastily, I'm afraid that Tagu will be pushed to the opposite side." Kang Dinghuang frowned and said, "I still insist on slowing down the plan for Bana City and focusing the center of gravity and vision on Sinalo. Let the rebels organize a counterattack and fight back to Sri Lanka, thereby suppressing the living space of the Chi Army. Then, through the internal struggle of the old Mexican official army, we can erode the territory of the Chi Army bit by bit. In this way, we can solve two problems."
Zhou Xian looked at him with a smile: "Haha, which two questions?"
"First, the purpose of our layout in Bana City is mainly to curb the growth of the Chi Army. Economic benefits are secondary. Therefore, if there is no result in Bana City, it means that Su Tianyu's arms business to support the Chi Army will not be able to operate, which is absolutely fatal to them. As far as I know, Su Tianyu has started to engage in banditry because of the problem of military expenses, which is enough to illustrate their economic situation. Second, if the rebels concentrate their forces and fight two beautiful battles in Sinalo, compressing the living space of the Chi Army, then the problem of Bana City will naturally be solved. Zhao Weihu and the Third Division cannot be involved in the coup in Bana City when they cannot protect themselves." Kang Dinghuang intervened and said, "I think these two points are in line with our long-term interests and are not difficult to implement."
"Xiaokang, you are too cautious." Zhou Xian was very relaxed when facing Kang Dinghuang, and he didn't beat around the bush when he spoke: "At the peak of the 125th Army, they not only lost the front line of defense, but also lost Sri Lanka. It's not an exaggeration to say that they were losing ground. Now that the Chi Army has the Third Division, the number of people has more than doubled. How can you guarantee that they can win two battles and thus suppress the Chi Army's living space? Isn't this plan too conservative and too idealistic? What's more, the commander-in-chief of the old Mo army is not dead yet, and he is determined to protect the Chi Army. In this way, the warlords of the old Mo army dare not target Zhao Weihu too much, and we can't form a combined consumption and double-teaming."
"Then wait, wait for the old Mexican commander-in-chief to die. His health is very bad, and he won't live long." Kang Dinghuang stood up and responded: "The survival resources of the Chi Army cannot be compared with ours. Using our strengths to consume the opponent's weaknesses may take a little longer, but it is the most effective. Simply put, when the Chi Army can't afford the military expenditure, will the Third Division still fight with them? When the old commander dies, will those greedy warlords still protect the Chi Army? We don't need to care about temporary gains and losses... We just need to maintain the status quo..."
"No, I don't agree with you." Zhou Xian interrupted and said, "Like you said, Tagu may change his political stance at any time. If it drags on, if he and the Chi army cooperate with each other, and the rebels can't achieve outstanding results, the final result may be the collapse of both fronts... In Sinalo, you can't strangle the Chi army; in Bana City, you lost the initiative."
Kang Dinghuang looked at Zhou Xian's expression and finally chose to remain silent.
"Xiaokang, don't worry about Bana City." Zhou Xian walked over and said, "I'll take care of this. You just need to continue planning Sinalo. Unite the rebel forces, secretly bribe the warlords of the Mexican government army, and wait for the smoke of war in Bana City to rise. When the coup begins, you can contain the Chi Army and the Third Division from the inside. Then our chances of winning will be very high. What do you think?!"
Kang Dinghuang bent down and sat down again, rubbing his palms and replied: "You have made your decision, then I will listen to you."
Zhou Xian sat down next to him, looked at Kang Dinghuang with a smile, and said sincerely: "We are brothers. I won't let you get shot in vain. I'll pay for it!"
Kang Dinghuang smiled: "I just hope everything goes well."
"It will definitely go smoothly." Zhou Xian leaned back on the sofa and said, "Many of our old faction members will retire next year. The future... belongs to us young people. We brothers, as the leader and deputy leader, will definitely achieve great results."
"Hmm!" Kang Dinghuang picked up the teacup.
In terms of position and family background, Kang Dinghuang and Zhou Xian are incomparable, especially after the teacher who admired him was killed in Longcheng, Xiaokang can only speak with his grades and work ability.
But in terms of personal relationship, the two can indeed be regarded as brothers and good friends. Since their school days, the two have been rivals in school and are both outstanding among the younger generation of the Chinese Legion. Although they did not work in the same organization before, and they also have their own camps in the big faction, this did not hinder their friendship.
However, as their status gradually improved and their cooperation became closer, some differences of opinion were inevitable.
Today was one of the days with relatively large disagreements, but Kang Dinghuang was able to put himself in the right position. He knew that he could not influence Zhou Xian's decision, nor did he have the power to communicate with higher-ups like him, so he could only agree with his plan.
The two sat in the room and chatted for a long time and drank for a while. It was not until the early morning that Kang Dinghuang left.
When he walked out of the sanatorium, Kang Dinghuang had already learned that Xue Ping'an had left early. After thinking about it, he decided to call the other party.
"Hello? Minister Kang!"
"Are you going back?" Kang Dinghuang asked, scratching his nose.
…
Dragon City.
An Zecheng was sitting in the office, smoking a cigarette: "Do you have any news?"
An Qiqi's mother Yu Zhen said softly: "Yes, the situation is still not good."
