Starting from Handong, in the name of Xiao Hao!

Li Dakang has his own group of secretaries, but right now, the most powerful one in that group is Li Dakang himself.

Moreover, many of Li Dakang's former subordinates were promoted because of Li Dakang.

However, many people were also scapegoats for Li Dakang. If it weren't for the possibility of promotion by following Li Dakang, probably not many people would have followed him.

Once Li Dakang truly falls, they won't be very loyal to him.

Moreover, there aren't many people here who are Li Dakang's own allies.

Previously, Zhao Lichun had protected Li Dakang, since he needed Li Dakang to bring him more benefits.

There's no one protecting Li Dakang now; Sha Ruijin isn't even here yet.

Chang Junhao's direct question immediately stunned Li Dakang.

Li Dakang himself was aware of this situation, and he was quick to accept Sha Ruijin's defection.

He was also aware of his own capabilities; whoever was in charge would need a strong general like himself who was good at economic development.

However, Li Dakang is not irreplaceable now. Isn't Chang Junhao, who made this suggestion, one of them?

Moreover, his ambiguous background makes Li Dakang even more wary.

Regardless of Chang Junhao's background, this is clearly a blatant attack against me.

If they don't retaliate, then Li Dakang will be completely defeated.

"You're dreaming!" Li Dakang shouted at Chang Junhao.

"What? Can't something really go wrong, and our Secretary Dakang just casually said a few words and it's all over?" Chang Junhao said.

Governor Liu and Gao Yuliang remained calm and collected, watching the two men's argument without offering any opinions.

"Hmph, I'm not convinced! I don't accept this result! Besides, we do have provincial party secretaries!"

"What? Are you planning to eliminate your opponents while Secretary Sha is still away?"

"Let me tell you, I'm not convinced! Even if the case goes all the way to the capital, I won't accept it!"

"What? Secretary Dakang doesn't seem to approve of this punishment, and he doesn't seem to realize his mistake at all!" Chang Junhao said again.

"As for excluding dissidents, ha, is anyone forcing you, Secretary Dakang, to make mistakes?"

“Is it okay to make a mistake and not punish it?” Chang Junhao continued.

"Humph!"

"I suggest we inform Secretary Sha about this matter and ask for his opinion!"

"Let's decide whether to vote or report it directly to the leadership and let them make the decision!"

"After all, Secretary Dakang is a member of our Provincial Party Committee Standing Committee and the Secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee. We can't make that decision!"

"You..." Li Dakang really wanted to point his finger at Chang Junhao and give him a piece of his mind when he confronted him like that.

"Alright, let's adjourn the meeting!" Governor Liu had basically stopped talking, and Gao Yuliang had been presiding over the meeting most of the time.

However, no one dared to offend Governor Liu at this time.

Even if you ignore Governor Liu, he won't do anything to you when you're about to retire.

But if you offend Governor Liu, well, Governor Liu may not have many other skills, but he certainly has the ability to drag you down with him.

After the meeting, Gao Yuliang invited Chang Junhao to sit in his office.

However, someone was already waiting here; it was none other than their Director Qi.

After seeing this, Gao Yuliang ignored it and led Chang Junhao directly into the office.

First, he had his secretary serve tea to Chang Junhao, then waved for the secretary to leave.

"Secretary Junhao, why did you suddenly get into a fight with Li Dakang today?" Gao Yuliang smiled, also somewhat curious about Chang Junhao's performance today.

"He just made things worse!" Chang Junhao said.

"Otherwise, they would just open their mouths and say a few words, completely ignoring their own mistakes!"

"No way!"

"In this situation, we are now in competition with Li Dakang, and we are exposing his mistakes!"

"We must eliminate his chances of rising to power to an infinitesimal degree!"

"Then that idea you proposed..." Gao Yuliang said, shaking his head slightly.

"It's just that everything has been laid bare; Li Dakang doesn't have many allies anymore!"

"His only option is to seek refuge with Sha Ruijin!"

"And Sha Ruijin himself needs such an economic expert, so he won't refuse Li Dakang!"

“If Sha Ruijin wants to establish a foothold here and prevent the development speed of Handong Province from being affected, then he needs Li Dakang,” Chang Junhao said.

"Hey, you still have yours, don't you!" Gao Yuliang chuckled.

"We can't really see Secretary Sha as our enemy. We can cooperate and work together to develop Handong Province!"

"Yes, that's fine!" Chang Junhao nodded.

"I've heard about it too. Our Secretary Sha is quite domineering!"

"What he wants to do, he accomplishes; what he doesn't want to do, no one else can do either!"

"But all of this is no different from how we dealt with Li Dakang ourselves!"

"If I were Secretary Sha, I would lean more towards Li Dakang!"

"Having some leverage over me, and having offended some people around me, makes it even easier to use me!"

"Therefore, we need to take down Li Dakang before the two of them reach an agreement!"

"If Li Dakang can't get up in the end, then he'll have to come with us!"

"In fact, Secretary Sha came here with the intention of resolving Secretary Zhao's matter!" Chang Junhao said.

"One of us, Li Dakang, might fall!"

"As for who falls, it doesn't matter to Sha Ruijin. But right now, cooperating with Li Dakang might be better for him!"

"Yes!" Gao Yuliang nodded.

“Moreover, even if it were you who were to fall, it would still affect me!” Chang Junhao said.

This time, Chang Junhao truly opened up to Gao Yuliang.

"How so?" Gao Yuliang asked himself.

"If you get arrested, then all that's left are Li Dakang's men and Sha Ruijin's men!"

"I used to work with you. If you collapse, I'll be fine too!"

"But it will also have an impact. If I don't want to be sidelined in Handong Province, then I'll need to leave Handong Province!"

"Getting kicked out like that after failing, haha, do you think that sounds good?"

"What will the evaluation from above be?"

"I understand!" Gao Yuliang nodded.

"So, I won't let you fail, and I'll remember everything I told you before!" Chang Junhao said.

"If you are unable to act on your own, I will help you!"

Having worked with Gao Yuliang for so long, Chang Junhao has had considerable contact with many of Gao Yuliang's subordinates.

There are some problematic people, but there are also quite a few who are dedicated and responsible, and there are many talented people among them.

Many of Chang Junhao's subordinates were promoted from Gao Yuliang's side, and quite a few of them also have a good relationship with Chang Junhao himself.

They may not be as dazzling as Hou Liangping, Qi Tongwei, and Chen Hai, but they are still a force to be reckoned with.

In other words, if Chang Junhao and Gao Yuliang had any problems while they were still on good terms, the Han University gang would fall apart in an instant.

The two of them will each take a portion.
