Pa! Pa! Pa!
After the second gunshot, there was a third and fourth. They were crisp and quiet. The walls of Area Y3 of the base were covered in blood and dust.
Including Director Bailey, seven officers of the Joint Investigation Department who had framed the NTR unit of the New Tenth Division had died. The two beady-eyed commanders who were in charge of chasing down the lone soldier and causing the deaths of eight federal soldiers had also turned into ice-cold corpses.
Madman Li looked at the three hundred small-eyed elites who were either angry, sad, or frightened. He said, "If you don't want today to turn into a massacre, then don't move. Obediently board the ship and leave. You aren't real soldiers, so you don't have the right to stay on the frontlines. When you return to the capital ring, tell your highest commander … "
He continued, "That is, that Chairman Lee Jae-do. I don't care what he's doing behind the scenes, but if he dares to send those officials and you to the frontlines next time, I'll kill every single one of them I see."
…
…
In the depths of the base, in the room that seemed to always be dark, the highest commander of the Federation military frontlines, Lieutenant General Hu Lian, looked at the young colonel in front of him with a livid face. He slammed the table angrily and reprimanded him sternly.
"Using a violent machine to execute high-ranking Federation officials without trial, and nine of them at once. Where did you get the guts to do that?!"
Li Feng's expression was no different from when he was supervising the executions in Area Y3 of the base. He was still calm and indifferent. Only the clear light in his eyes showed that he had already shaken off that crazy and violent mood.
He wasn't interested in listening to the commander's reprimand. His eyes moved around the dark room. He felt that after Du Shaoqing left the frontlines, the windows of the headquarters room seemed to always be covered with black curtains. It made him feel a little unhappy.
"Do you know? If this matter spreads, it will definitely become the biggest scandal in the history of the Federation military! I don't care if you are some bullsh * t war hero or the youngest colonel commander, you will be finished! "
Lieutenant General Hu Lian angrily tore open the military discipline buckle and pointed at his nose. "It's one thing to kill those two small-eyed commanders, but you dare to kill the officers of the Joint Investigation Department? Don't forget that there are four people in there from the Bureau of Proclamation! How are you going to explain this to the Bureau of Proclamation! How do we explain this to the Federation?! "
Li Feng replied expressionlessly, "If Director Cui Judong has an opinion, I think he will directly target me and not put pressure on the military."
Lieutenant General Hu Lian was suddenly at a loss for words. His fingers trembled as he didn't know what to say.
"As for why I want to kill people, you should know very well that a character like Director Bailey will only use those dirty tricks to bite people like a mad dog. If such a person stays at the front line, the mood of the soldiers will become worse and worse, and it may even cause a real mutiny."
Lieutenant General Hu Lian gradually calmed down. He looked at him with a frown and asked with a serious expression, "How do we deal with this matter next? You executed a government official in public. No matter what, you can't hide it. "
"According to military regulations, battles where the death toll does not exceed ten people do not need to be reported to the Ministry of Defense, and the rear agency has no right to ask."
Li Feng replied.
Today, nine officials were executed in the Y3 area of the base. The limit of ten people was not exceeded. As long as the frontline forces kept it a secret from top to bottom, it would not be difficult to turn this bloody incident into a surprise attack by the Empire.
Lieutenant General Hu Lian stared at his calm face. He wanted to confirm whether this was an excuse that he had thought of beforehand, or if it was just a moment of inspiration. For the first time, he realized that there was actually such a meticulous strategic ability in the body of this crazy young man.
Suddenly, His Excellency felt like Director Bailey was already dead. He silently thought to himself, if the military regulations of the Federation limited the death toll to more than ten people, then how many people would have died in the base today? Would he have died?
"Let's not talk about the ubiquitous The Glory Of The Charter. Even if all the soldiers in the frontline forces kept silent about this incident, how are you going to make those three hundred small-eyed soldiers shut up?"
"The special forces of small-eyed soldiers belong to the First Military Region. We all know who these people belong to."
After knowing the truth about the explosion of the Ancient Bell, Madman Li no longer called that person father. After a moment of silence, he said, "Chairman Lee Jae-do can make them shut up. I believe that President Pabre also doesn't want the media to know about this incident."
"As for you, Mr. General … now that Xu Le is no longer in the army, I am the only hero. If the military doesn't protect me, who will they protect?"
Li Feng said, "To be more precise, the military would rather protect me than you. So if you want to protect yourself, you must first protect this incident. As for how to make the frontline forces forget about what happened today, I'll leave it to you."
Lieutenant General Hu Lian's beard trembled slightly, representing the anger in his heart. As the highest commander in the Federation's frontline, he did not find the slightest bit of respect or even equality in the tone of this young commander in front of him. This young man's attitude was as if he was the commander.
However, he could not be angry because the bloody incident caused by the new 17th Division did not involve the headquarters. If the new 17th Division or Madman Li insisted on finding out who was responsible, how could he and the headquarters stay out of it?
"I've said before that the army cannot be in chaos, so this incident will not involve you. However, I think today's incident should wake you up a little."
"Xu Le has returned to the Federation."
Madman Li detonated a bomb without any warning. He stared at Lieutenant General Hu Lian whose expression changed drastically and said, "A lot of things will happen in the capital ring. Those things are not something you can get involved in."
Lieutenant General Hu Lian frowned and did not say anything.
Madman Li looked at him and said with slight mockery, "If you had the right to get involved in those things, Commander Shaoqing would not have been transferred back by His Excellency the President."
"Huai Caoshi definitely knows about this. The Empire's army will definitely not let go of this opportunity, so your current mission is to command the army and prepare for another battle with the Empire's army."
Li Feng said, "And my mission is to fight the Empire's army under your leadership, and at the same time, crush all the bugs that come from the rear to cause trouble."
Lieutenant General Hu Lian knew that this was the condition the other had proposed. After a long period of silent consideration, he slowly nodded.
…
…
Perhaps there really was a wall in the world that could block out all the gales, but there was definitely no secret that could be hidden forever, at least for Lee Jae-do who controlled all the secret organizations of the Federation government.
In less than two hours after the cold-blooded shooting incident on Planet Mo Hua, the detailed report of the incident had already been delivered to the table in front of him. In the report, the details of the incident were described in an extremely objective and calm manner, as if the narrator was on the scene, or even one of the people involved.
This was the work requirement that Lee Jae-do had for the Joint Investigation Department. He believed that this objectivity had nothing to do with the person involved being his own son.
The slightly cold coffee was still rippling in the porcelain white cup. Lee Jae-do walked to the window and looked at the cold scenery of the capital. Looking at the leaves swaying under his feet after the rain, a self-mocking smile appeared on his calm face.
The incident report was suppressed by him. Except for His Excellency the President, no one in the capital ring knew what his own son had done at the frontline. There might be rumors after the incident, but so what?
"Because I'm your father, you can't kill me to avenge Commander Zhong, so no matter what you do, I have to cover it up for you, because you're my son."
Lee Jae-do looked out of the window calmly. Thinking of his son who he had not seen for three years, countless light years away, he sighed silently in his heart.
…
…
"The major battle at the frontline has ended. The battle at the strait on Planet Mo Hua was a complete victory. Colonel Li Feng, who is that Madman Li, fought particularly fiercely.
"The only bad news is that the team of the Joint Investigation Department stationed at the frontline was ambushed by a special force of the empire in the southwest war zone. Seven senior officials and two field commanders were killed. Sigh, speaking of which, these people were all my colleagues. They were too unlucky to encounter such an incident on the first time the department went to the frontline."
It had been more than three years since he was transferred from the research institute to the Joint Investigation Department, but Chen Yijiang still maintained that wooden look. He took a sip of coffee, looked at the two people across the table, and said, "I heard that because of this reason, the frontline command was very dissatisfied with the small eyes team and drove them all back."
"Thank you for telling us this news. Speaking of which, you arrested me for treason, but you couldn't produce any evidence. How long are you going to lock us up? We're not allowed to contact the outside world, and we're not even allowed to read the newspapers. We can only listen to you tell us these stories every day. "
Sitting across the table were Chief Editor Bob and reporter Wood. Wood angrily rubbed his tangled curly hair and complained incessantly, while Chief Editor Bob was concentrating on tasting his coffee, enjoying it very much.
Chen Yijiang pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said slowly, "That money has corrupted the middle and lower structure of the government and the entire political environment. At this time, you still want to speak for them. I don't understand."
Wood leaned his body on the chair and looked at him mockingly. "Does criticizing the government mean that you're speaking for those big families?"
"But Mr. President and the government always want to do something good. They want to change the current decadent Federation status quo and achieve true democracy."
"What is true democracy? Is it the democracy that those thugs in South Kezhou want to kill your whole family? "
Wood's harsh and vicious tone made Chen Yijiang very uncomfortable. Although this kind of chat over coffee every few days had been done many times, it was still in a state where no one could convince the other.
"You think that the election under the control of the big families represents true democracy?"
"The Federation needs unity the most now. What Mr. President needs most now is support, not doubt. If we don't unite, how can we win this war with the Empire? If the government doesn't use these strong means, how can the entire political machine operate well and support this war? The body of the Federation has decayed too much. If we don't use a sharp knife, how can we cut off the rotten flesh and restore health? "
