Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 1027 Fairness

"Bang, bang bang, bang bang bang..."

As noon approached, a series of gunshots suddenly rang out from the headquarters compound in Luojiawan.

Surrounded by everyone at the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters, the corrupt officials in the Logistics Department were shot dead by personnel from the Outpost.

Ye Shaohong did not allow anyone to collect their bodies.

Instead, it was laid out in the open, so that everyone in the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters could take a good look.

Zhang Zhang remembers.

Let them know that even though corruption is rampant in the Nationalist government, there are certain kinds of money that cannot be taken within the Military Intelligence Bureau, and certain people that should not be easily provoked.

This series of gunshots completely shattered the tranquility of the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters in Luojiawan.

The office building of the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters remained quiet all day.

Even when there is official business to attend to, people are extra careful when they talk.

It was as if they were afraid of startling someone.

Ordinary lower-level employees, though apprehensive, were not truly afraid.

After all, they don't have the right to engage in corruption and bribery.

It's not their turn.

But those who hold some power and have the opportunity to steal national wealth feel differently.

Today they truly witnessed the terror of Yama, the Seventh Prince. This is the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

The Logistics Department was also a core department of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Managing the entire operation, from top to bottom, the daily lives of over ten thousand people, and the amount of money he handled every day was beyond imagination.

It was this core department, and the people within it, that provoked Ye Shaohong.

They ultimately could not escape death.

Thinking about all this, and then about the things they did in the past, how could one not have many thoughts and feelings about it?

Some people are scared and have begun to think about ways to make amends.

of course.

While some were terrified, others were simply watching the spectacle.

They also knew the magnitude of the trouble Ye Shaohong had caused this time, and they knew how much turmoil it would cause in the future.

They were waiting for Dai Yunong to return, waiting to see Ye Shaohong humiliated. They even wanted to kick him while he was down.

Ye Shaohong didn't care about any of this.

By now, Ye Shaohong had long since established himself within the Military Intelligence Bureau, and his subordinates had formed their own factions.

They have seized unshakeable power.

Even if Dai Yunong returns, and is angry about this matter and wants to punish Ye Shaohong, he needs to think it over carefully.

Putting aside everything else, just consider the fact that after the incident, Xu Baichuan, Wang Tianfeng, and Zheng Yaoxian rushed over upon hearing the news.

She arrived at Ye Shaohong's office, complaining to him in annoyance that he shouldn't have acted impulsively.

On the one hand, they were also giving Ye Shaohong advice.

The struggle should be quelled to prevent any subsequent impact.

This shows Ye Shaohong's current status within the Military Intelligence Bureau; he's not someone those petty clowns can easily deal with. Initially, the eight brothers swore brotherhood, but now only four have survived.

Of the four of them, three are currently department heads, and the other is a deputy department head.

The Military Intelligence Bureau currently only has ten departments and six offices.

Who can ignore the strength of these brothers?

Do they deserve to see Ye Shaohong make a fool of himself and kick him while he's down?

This is the source of Ye Shaohong's confidence.

In addition, Ye Shaohong also had connections outside the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Without mentioning his relationship with the bald-headed chairman of the Tongxiang Municipal Committee.

Let's not mention that they are senior and junior students.

Take Old Master Ye and Commander Chen Cheng, for example—these are Ye Shaohong's backers. He could easily handle such a trivial matter. So, don't be fooled by Xu Baichuan, Wang Tianfeng, and Zheng Yaoxian's subsequent complaints about Ye Shaohong.

He was impulsive.

It is said that he did not consider the consequences before doing things.

But they have already shown their support for Ye Shaohong through their actions.

Didn't you see that when Ye Shaohong was making the decision to kill, none of these bigwigs from the Military Intelligence Bureau stepped forward to stop or dissuade him?

The default is an attitude.

Even Mao Renfeng didn't cause trouble for Ye Shaohong afterwards.

Who else can come forward and offer their opinion?

Thus, the farce came to an end.

Afterwards, Ye Shaohong only invited Xu Baichuan, Wang Tianfeng, and Zheng Yaoxian to go out for a get-together.

After having a few drinks, the matter was completely over.

A few days later, Dai Yunong returned from inspecting troops in various regions, following behind the bald-headed chairman. Upon returning to the Military Intelligence Bureau, he merely summoned Ye Shaohong and gave him a brief, indifferent reprimand.

There wasn't even a slightly harsh reprimand or curse.

It was placed down gently.

Only the deputy director who couldn't keep his mouth shut was thrown into prison by Dai Yunong afterward.

Their final whereabouts are unknown.

For many years afterward, no one could find any trace of that person.

It's highly likely he's already dead.

However, this has led to a lot of trouble afterward.

It's not pressure from above.

Instead, it is the families whose pensions have been embezzled by corrupt officials that Ye Shaohong needs to address.

He can't escape.

Dai Yunong did not pursue Ye Shaohong's responsibility, but he also left the follow-up matters to Ye Shaohong to handle.

According to Dai Yunong, Ye Shaohong now enjoys a very good reputation within the Military Intelligence Bureau.

He is a good leader who dares to stand up for justice for his subordinates.

If someone else were to take over and resolve this matter, no one would believe it; everyone would harbor some suspicion.

But Ye Shaohong was different.

If he takes on this task, everyone will be convinced.

It can also provide the greatest possible comfort to the suffering families.

To soothe the turbulent hearts within the bureau.

Because of this, Ye Shaohong had to temporarily stop many of his current tasks, and he personally led Li Yunlong to travel around the mountain city.

Taking the money confiscated from the homes of corrupt officials and the compensation personally approved by Dai Yunong, Ye Shaohong visited more than forty families in just three days. He handed over the money that should have belonged to them, the compensation that their children had risked their lives for, to their wives, children, and elderly parents.

The results were naturally a mix of joy and sorrow.

For some families, having this money will allow them to get through the next few years, even if it seems difficult.

However, some families were ruined and even killed because of the corrupt and parasitic behavior that delayed their purchase of daily necessities.

Some families lost an elderly person.

Some families lost their children to starvation.

Some families, after receiving the death benefits that were rightfully theirs, went directly to the cenotaphs of their children on the mountain and wept bitterly.

Passed out directly.

In the past few days, Ye Shaohong had witnessed far too many things like this. His heart was almost broken by the countless expressions of gratitude and cries of anguish.

It's really painful.

Ye Shaohong would rather take up a gun and go to the battlefield than see such a scene.

He also hated those corrupt officials.

Why be greedy for these life-saving funds of all things?

Even killing them wouldn't be enough to quell my anger.

But that’s okay.

Those bastards are dead, but their families are still alive.

The Republic of China no longer practiced collective punishment or implicated nine generations of a family in a single crime.

But that's the rule for other agencies of the Nationalist government.

That's not the rule of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

This was not Ye Shaohong's rule either. After leaving the last family of the fallen special agents in the mountain city, Ye Shaohong gave Li Yunlong another order.

Let him teach those corrupt officials' families a lesson.

Even if we let them live, we must make them wish they were dead.

Don't think it's cruel.

Don't think he's innocent in this situation.

This is the price they have to pay for enjoying a life they shouldn't have had.

That's what fairness is.

Ye Shaohong's fairness!
