He Daqing, do you know how I've lived these past years?

Le Mansion in Sijiu City

"Sir, the Everlasting Victory Escort Agency has sent an urgent report; it's extremely pressing."

The communications soldier barged in without knocking and shouted.

Upon hearing this, Leyou snatched the telegram from his hand and examined it closely. A moment later, he turned around and smashed the desk with a punch.

"Bring Jia Guibai, the fat guy, over here."

Notify all newly appointed regimental commanders and police chiefs to assemble.

"speed"

"It's the officer."

Watching the communications soldier run off, Le You trembled as he pulled out a cigarette, lit it, and walked to the mansion's gate. Looking northwest, his eyes flashed with a chilling murderous intent.

Half an incense stick later, everyone gathered on the playground in front of the mansion.

"All regiments and battalions must assemble by noon, bringing all heavy weapons and grenades."

The First Regiment of New Recruits will remain stationed in the city. Jia Gui will handle all riots or acts of oppression that occur while I am away. No need to report them. Whoever it is, kill without mercy. If the situation is serious, allow the family to reunite.

Police stations in all districts and alleys are fully cooperating.

"Old Bai, this time you guys need to put in a full-fledged logistical effort, don't hold me back."

"Everyone, prepare for battle immediately. We will depart for the Yuan Kingdom at noon."

……

"Is war about to break out?"

"Perhaps. I see soldiers gathering everywhere outside the city."

"You probably don't know, but General Yue might be going to war against the Yuan Dynasty, just like General Xu did before."

"How did you know? I heard from a rumor that they were going to Hai Shen Wei, and that they sent troops there months ago."

"Hmph, my brother's wife's lover's mother-in-law's best friend's son works in the communications unit. But those areas used to be our territory; I never thought they wouldn't be now."

"Sigh, ever since the Kangxi Emperor, the north has been constantly invading. Even when the emperor wins, he doesn't take back the spoils. After a hundred years of tasting meat, why don't they take a few more bites?"

"Stop talking, that's General Yue, right? Thanks to him, I'm not afraid of people stealing from my house even if I leave my door open at night."

"Yes, it would be great if these officials were like General Yue. What a pity."

"Alas, today's bandits may be tomorrow's officials, and today's officials may be bandits; it is always us ordinary people who suffer."

"Hey, what are you thinking? Let's save up our wages now. One of my brothers bought a pistol in Huangjietan. If they dare to harm me, I'll fight them to the death. Killing one is safe, killing two is a bonus. Eighteen years from now, I'll be a hero again."

"That's right, brother. Leave me a way out too, I'll have a few weapons ready as well."

……

Dense crowds lined both sides of the street, and soldiers in pairs, carrying machine guns, marched along the ramp toward the city gate.

Leyou, mounted on his horse, waved to his master and the others at the mansion entrance, smoking a cigarette, and followed in the middle of the group with a solemn expression.

These are turbulent times, but with war raging everywhere, no one can control him. If something happened to Mulan, then something must have happened to Chen Si as well. There must be a traitor among them.

艹

Soon the troops stationed inside the city joined the waiting troops outside the city.

Following Le You's order, the entire division marched rapidly towards the northwest.

After Jia Gui, the new recruit regiment commander, and a group of police chiefs watched the troops depart,

Jia Gui clenched his hands, suppressing his excitement and panic, and said:

"Brothers, I, Old Jia, haven't been to any high-ranking positions, but I was given my life by Boss Le. So, during this period, all police officers from various stations should be deployed for patrols. Apart from the officers in the branch offices, it would be best to have one officer stationed in each compound."

"Furthermore, Commander Yan, deploy troops at the four city gates, setting up roadblocks, barbed wire, and barbed wire."

If you encounter any suspicious persons, arrest them immediately. If they resist, kill them on sight. Pay special attention to the people from the City Lord's Mansion.

After Jia Gui gave his instructions, everyone nodded and went to their respective places.

Inside the city lord's mansion

Zhifu excitedly rushed into the city mayor's office, only to be greeted by an inkstone and the word "Get lost."

He hurriedly closed the door, leaned against it, pressed his hand to his chest, and muttered to himself:

“So big and so white”

A moment later, the door opened, and a beautiful woman in a dark blue cheongsam ran out, her head down and covering the slit in her dress.

As Zhifu listened to the thud of high heels hitting the wooden planks and gazed at the curvaceous figure, he couldn't help but drool.

"Get the hell in here now!"

With a loud roar, Zhifu outside the door shuddered, his previously excited expression turning haggard, as if a great deal of energy had been drained.

"Dad, good news, good news!"

"Le Weiguo has basically taken everyone away. What should we do now?"

The city chief, also weary, leaned back in his chair, lit a cigar, and said:

"You take people to lobby those police chiefs, as well as those people from Meixian and those who came here from Youmei. Give them money if they want money, give them women if they want women, and make sure to keep a detailed record of everything."

Seeing that the city magistrate had already put down his cigar and closed his eyes, Zhifu was speechless. He turned to leave the room.

At that moment, the city magistrate's voice came from behind:

Turn on the loudspeaker and put in the record that the American ambassador sent.

Zhifu turned and walked to a large, trumpet-shaped golden object, picked up a metal strip, and then took out a round, black, thin sheet from the cabinet below, placed it in the center, and pressed the metal strip down.

A thin needle presses down on the thin sheet below the top of the metal strip.

A moment later, a beautiful melody suddenly blared from the loudspeaker.

Zhifu touched it enviously, then seemed to remember something and hurriedly ran out of the room.

The city magistrate immediately opened his eyes, got up, closed the door, and muttered a curse:

"If you weren't the only one there, I wouldn't even want to see you."

After letting out a long breath, the city chief grabbed the telephone receiver on the table, dialed a few numbers, and then waited.

With a series of beeps...beep...beep

After three sounds, the city chief coldly said:

"Le Weiguo has left the city and will proceed according to the original plan."

Then he hung up the phone, lit his cigar again, listened to music, and mumbled something unintelligible.

Zhifu, who had run out, hurriedly went to the gatekeeper and asked:

"Did a woman just walk out?"

The gatekeeper also replied with a forced smile:

"Yes, it was Mrs. Huang, she just left not long ago."

Zhifu nodded and hurriedly ran out.

The gatekeeper shook his head and whispered:

"Old Huang, even if you look down on us down-on-our-luck classmates, that's fine. I still need to find a way to have a taste of your wife, otherwise I'm not even as good as a good-for-nothing."

……

Jia Gui, who was patrolling around, also spotted Yi Zhonghai, who looked exhausted, and rode over on his motorcycle.

"Hey you, wait a minute."

Yi Zhonghai stopped in his tracks, looked down at Jia Gui who was approaching, and said:

"Commander Jia, what are your orders?"

Seeing his trembling legs, Jia Gui didn't waste any words and said:

"Did you go to a brothel? Isn't your wife at home better?"

Yi Zhonghai shook his head and said:

"No, I didn't volunteer from the factory to go to the countryside to help the villagers. Some villagers even need to collect and buy back their hoes and other such items. The factory urgently needs steel right now."

Jia Gui nodded and said:

"My nephew Dongxu is now your apprentice, so you must take good care of him. I won't treat you unfairly."

Yi Zhonghai also nodded hurriedly and said:

"Don't worry, now that I've become his apprentice, I'll definitely pass on my skills to him. I've been teaching him some basic blueprints lately."

Jia Gui nodded and said:

"Thank you for your trouble. I'll look forward to having a drink with you sometime."

After saying that, he stepped on the gas and drove away.

Yi Zhonghai rubbed his lower back and said in a low voice:

"If it weren't for you, Jia Gui, I would have given you my skills and eaten your excrement. This Jia Fugui is truly wealthy; his cousin was a traitor to the Xia dynasty, and now this lackey has somehow managed to curry favor with the garrison commander. How impressive!"

"Sigh, we agreed to go once a month, but Huai Ru is too juicy, I couldn't resist! I definitely have to eat her up next year."
