Rebirth: 1977

On July 20, Ye Tianshui had just arrived at work when Secretary-General Qiao Zheng called him to his office and carefully handed him a sealed information bag:

"Xiao Ye, this is an urgent secret document. Take your men to deliver it to the highest commander of the Tangshan Crackdown Command.

There must be no mistakes! "

The place name "Tangshan" is now an extremely sensitive place within the Central Advisory Commission.

Although crackdown campaigns are also being carried out in other places, their attention is now focused on Tangshan.

That's the most serious situation right now.

Ye Tianshui had always wanted to stay out of it, but now he was asked to deliver the documents directly. He had no reason to refuse, nor did he want to refuse.

It is a good opportunity to take a look at the arrest scene that makes people shudder, and see those evil elements who were once so arrogant but are now imprisoned and waiting to be tried.

It can be said that I witnessed this important historical event with my own eyes.

He took the document. It was thin and weightless, but Ye Tianshui felt it was heavy.

What is the content of this document? Their entire secretariat has never heard of it. Ye Tianshui guessed that it should have been submitted from below for the leader to approve and sign.

"Secretary Qiao, I'll drive myself and take two people from the Public Security Bureau with me.

Our colleagues here are too busy to spare any help.”

Tangshan is in a very chaotic situation now. Ye Tianshui wonders if there will be any danger if he goes there.

The secretaries who come to work in the Central Advisory Commission are all literati, slightly better than those who are "weak as a kitten".

If any accident occurs on the road, it will cause trouble for Ye Tianshui.

He trusted his men, and they had a tacit understanding and were skilled in driving.

Ye Tianshui's request was a bit unusual. This was his habit in the past, to use his own people when handling important matters.

When he blurted it out, he was not sure whether the Secretary-General would agree to it.

Who knew that Qiao Zheng agreed without any hesitation:

"Sure, as long as you are trustworthy. How many people do you want to bring? It's up to you to decide. If you don't, you must set off immediately and deliver them to the commander as soon as possible.

The people below are waiting for this instruction to act.”

Ye Tianshui was a little confused. Could he trust him like this? And agreed so easily?

He thought he would have to spend some time talking and make some effort to convince others, or ask Su Jianxin and Ye Jianfeng to testify for him.

But he did not delay at all and immediately called Chen Jun in front of Qiao Zheng.

"Chen Jun, tell Lin Hao to drive over to pick me up right away. I have a mission."

He paused, thinking of his two awesome license plate numbers, which he had never had the chance to use after getting them in order to keep a low profile.

"Put on our new license plate, bring a change of clothes, water, and dry food, because we don't know when we'll be back."

At this time, you must act stylishly and show off your power when you go out. If you don’t need it now, then when will you need it?

"Yes! Director, change the license plate immediately, bring a change of clothes and dry food, we will be at the door of your office building in half an hour!"

Chen Jun's voice was crisp and clear.

Ye Tianshui hung up the phone and turned back to see Secretary Qiao looking at him with a probing look. He quickly explained:

"Secretary General, please rest assured. They are all police officers of the Public Security Department and are absolutely trustworthy."

A smile appeared on Qiao Zheng's serious face:

“This document is very important, and there were huge disagreements when choosing who to deliver it.

It was Mr. Ye who recommended you, and he had already guessed that you would use the people you have.

This is exactly what the leader wants, and we are all relieved to leave it to you."

Ha, so that’s how it is. The old man still knows him best.

"Xiao Ye, I didn't expect that you have such a strong team of subordinates. I just found out that you have a part-time job in the Public Security Bureau.

I see that after you accepted the task, you knew what preparations to make. Isn't it a bit of a waste of your talent to be a secretary in the Central Advisory Commission?"

Today, Qiao Zheng was less fierce and more peaceful, which made Ye Tianshui feel flattered.

“No, no, I really like this job. I can learn a lot from you, Secretary General.

Providing services to old leaders can also help you learn a lot of experience from them.

It is my honor to work in the Central Advisory Commission.”

Ye Tianshui said modestly.

No wonder Secretary-General Qiao’s attitude towards me changed drastically today. It turned out that his secrets were exposed.

What a joke! What kind of talented person dares to say that he is of little use in this department?

Although it is just a secretarial job, those seemingly trivial chores, when connected together, form the trajectory of a country's development.

Ye Tianshui, who is familiar with this history, knows very well that he is now standing on the shoulders of giants, watching the ups and downs and changes in the world.

A strong country is built up by these seemingly small things.

Standing at the window and watching Ye Tianshui get into the luxury car with the eye-catching license plate and speed away, Qiao Zheng's heart was shocked.

He had been misled into thinking that Ye Tianshui was just a college graduate with good background who happened to be lucky enough to be assigned here.

Who would have known that this young man, who usually keeps a low profile, actually possessed such strong strength.

After a moment of silence and hesitation, he dialed a number.

The car bumped along under the scorching sun, and not long after leaving the capital, the road began to become bumpy.

Ye Tianshui remembered that this road was almost destroyed during the big earthquake, and the current road was built later.

"Director, according to the information I received, the situation in Tangshan is almost under control.

This time, the military and police were dispatched together, and their movements were fast. They caught one right after another. Those arrogant evil forces with knives and sticks were simply vulnerable when faced with real machine guns and weapons. "

While Lin Hao was driving, Chen Jun began to report to Ye Tianshui.

"I don't know what the local police are doing. They have let the situation get out of control step by step."

Lin Hao complained.

Ye Tianshui listened silently without responding.

Why do they become so arrogant? What are the police doing?

After all, one thing is that those young people have no jobs and no income, so they need to eat, right?

What does 'extremely vicious' mean?

When they are so poor that they only have their lives left, talking to them about the law is like talking to a cow.

There is another important reason. Over the past decade, the power of the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs has been severely weakened, resulting in a large shortage of police force and a huge disparity in strength.

One is strong while the other is weak, one grows while the other declines; local governments and the public security, procuratorial and judicial organs each perform their own duties and do not work together to manage.

It has increasingly encouraged the rampant growth of unhealthy tendencies and evil practices.

"It's fine if we just say these things among ourselves, but don't let others discuss them. It's not good to cause negative impact."

Ye Tianshui took care of it seriously.

"Don't worry, we'll just keep our mouths shut outside and listen to what others say."

Chen Jun promised.

The closer the car got to Tangshan, the more rugged and difficult the road became, and some places looked like they had been destroyed by humans.

When entering this city, the streets were sparsely populated, and even if there were people, they were coming and going in a hurry.

There are fewer ordinary people, but more people in uniform.

When Ye Tianshui saw this, he suddenly felt sad for this city.

The great earthquake a few years ago almost destroyed the entire city. It was rebuilt with great difficulty, but it gave rise to so many people who are a threat to society.

After asking a few soldiers, Ye Tianshui arrived at the crackdown headquarters, and the commander-in-chief who greeted him was actually his father-in-law Hua Guoxing.

"Xiao Shui, are you looking for me? Are you here for business? Is everything okay at home?"

"Dad, we are here to deliver important documents. Why are you here? You are the highest commander of the crackdown in Tangshan?"

Ye Tianshui asked in surprise.
