Just as the army entered the city on a large scale, the huge commotion also attracted the attention of official agencies in Zhanjiang District.

"Tsk tsk~ This is quite a big scene!"

"Indeed, how many people are here?"

"Commander Li just sent in a message saying that four new training brigades have moved in this time." The man who spoke had a half-smile on his face.

At the window of the conference room on the 4th floor of the Zhanjiang gathering place official residence, located in the center of the gathering place, seven or eight middle-aged men in black work clothes looked at the smoke rising from the street with complicated expressions.

"Oh my goodness, there are less than 10 people in our gathering place, and there are 2 troops? Including the original garrison, there should be almost 3 people, right?" a leader with a bulging belly sighed.

"That's right... I feel like if this continues, the army will soon outnumber the survivors in our gathering place!" The person who spoke had an unclear tone, and while he spoke, his eyes were focused on the top leader Wang Guotao beside him.

"Yes, yes! The Yezhou Military Region is really powerful! I heard that it controls the entire Yezhou Province..."

"To control Yezhou Province? How many troops would that require? At least hundreds of thousands of troops?"

"You think that's too little? With hundreds of thousands of troops controlling a province, they can easily withdraw more than 3 troops to our side? You don't know how big Yezhou is, do you? I think there are hundreds of thousands!"

...

Wang Guotao stood among the few people and did not participate in their conversation. Instead, he stared blankly towards the south gate with his eyes a little out of focus.

It's been almost an hour, and military vehicles are still coming out of the South Gate. It's just like the strategy game I saw my son play before. Is it a military depot? Wang Guotao suddenly had such a ridiculous idea.

He knew what his subordinates were talking about. They were simply divided into two factions and were all hinting at him.

One side hinted that there were too many troops stationed there and they wanted to take charge, which implicitly reflected concerns about their own power.

One side hinted that the army had more people and the Yezhou Military Region was even more powerful, so he should not listen to their nonsense.

But no matter which side it was, Wang Guotao felt it was a little funny...

Can I take charge of the affairs of the Yezhou army?

From the moment the enemy's army set foot on the land of the gathering place, the power of the entire Zhanjiang gathering place has been quietly transferred...

Do these people still think it is before the end of the world?

Separation of the military and politics? Clear distinction? ? Military power is trapped in the barracks?

The common people in one place dared to extort 50 yuan from the army for a peanut? And yuan from the army for a sheep?

Are you kidding me? It's the end of the world!

Times have long since changed!

I am the so-called director of Zhanjiang District. I am the director only if others recognize me as the director. If others don’t recognize me as the director, I am just an old man!

Although Wang Guotao has not experienced the end of the world, he has read history!

In the era when China was sinking, not to mention a mere county-level leader, even a so-called provincial-level official would have to tremble in fear under the oppression of these marshals, unless you wanted to die.

In this world, the gun has the final say...

What else can we, the pen holders, do except rely on it?

To take a step back, although they lost power, at least they saved their lives. Some people forget their roots and start to think about fighting for power not long after they survive...

Wang Guotao thought about this, glanced at the cadres and leaders with mixed tones, and then said in a deep voice:

"Since the Yezhou Military Region values ​​us and is willing to send so many troops for the safety of our gathering place, we can't be stingy. We must take the initiative to assume the responsibility of providing material support for these 2 new training troops!"

"Director Hu Zhengyi, you, as the Director of the Logistics Bureau, will be responsible for these supplies. They must be in place today!"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man called Hu Zhengyi's expression froze and became a little ugly.

"Director... the supplies for these 20,000 people are not a small amount... and the military support, based on their treatment... I'm afraid it will have to be several times higher than normal... In this way, I'm afraid the amount of supplies will be close to 60,000 to 70,000 people..."

"There are nearly 10 survivors in our gathering place. The daily consumption is not a small number. We are not able to cope with it..."

Upon hearing that so many supplies had to be provided to the army, Hu Zhengyi was so heartbroken that he could not breathe. As the director of the Logistics Bureau, God knew how much effort he had spent on stockpiling these supplies, and these supplies were the foundation of his power!

As the director of the logistics bureau, who would care about him if he doesn’t have supplies?

If we now empty the Logistics Bureau of supplies to supply the army, will the army be able to manage them when they go out to recycle the supplies?

Even if you think with your butt, you know it's impossible!

So doing this is a pure loss!

The deeper reason was that Hu Zhengyi had predicted that as the troops took root in the gathering places, the supplies in the gathering places would soon become less scarce. In this way, his position as the director of the Logistics Bureau would definitely be greatly weakened...

This is the real reason why he resists the army. Although his reason tells him not to go against the army, his emotion is an unreasonable child. He is still unhappy...

Just like many people know that they should control their emotions, but how many people can actually do it?

Hearing this, Wang Guotao narrowed his eyes and his expression instantly became cold.

"Comrade Zhengyi, this is an order, not a consultation! Have you lost your sense of superiority and inferiority?"

At this point, Wang Guotao raised his chin slightly, looked down at his subordinates with dignity, and warned them sternly:

"I know that some of you comrades have your own ideas!"

"They feel that the danger is over, there is no threat to their lives, and the army is no longer needed, so everyone has become slack in their military affairs, even deliberately slacking off!"

"You don't dare to say it openly, so you want to engage in soft resistance?!"

Bang!

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Guotao slammed the table hard. The huge noise echoed in the conference room, scaring the leaders present so much that their hearts jumped.

"I'm telling you! There's no such thing as doing things this way in the world!"

"When you have difficulties, you flatter others and hope they will come to you. But when you don't have difficulties, you try your best to drive others out?"

"This is absolutely unforgivable! It is also absolutely unacceptable! The leadership team of our Zhanjiang gathering place will not allow such black sheep to exist!"

"Hu Zhengyi!"

"To!"

Facing Wang Guotao's harsh rebuke, Hu Zhengyi was already sweating profusely, with cold sweat all over his forehead!

"I'll ask you again, can this be done today?!"

"It can be implemented! It can be implemented! It must be implemented today, as soon as possible!" Hu Zhengyi nodded repeatedly.

Seeing this, Wang Guotao looked at the other leaders in the meeting room, and no one dared to look him in the eye.

"The most important thing in doing anything is to judge the situation. Some of you should think carefully about it. You are treating the army as a doormat and want to throw it away after use. Are you qualified?"

"The meeting is dismissed!"
