Two hundred and seventy-fourth secret temptation
It is difficult for people who have never experienced pain personally to understand what it feels like.
Sun Zhan truly realized that right around him, those best young people were extremely loyal to them, and they regarded them as their biological children and nephews, and their relationships could be interpreted by words like "confidants". They died like this, and the pain was heartbreaking, and they would rather exchange anything with them. But... it was too late.
"Why, why is this happening? You shouldn't die there. Who is it, who is it?"
Sun Zhan was crying. He grabbed the edge of the table with both hands, and his whole body was lying on the table. The painful screams echoed in the empty room.
This question is a bit redundant. With Sun Zhan's ability, as long as he calms down, it is not difficult to guess the connection. His intention to arrange Ye Xiangyang and others to the UU Infantry Division is very obvious. The seizure of power will be criticized at any time. The opponent will spare no effort to fight back. In this life-and-death struggle, killing is just an ordinary thing.
The crying and screaming lasted for a long time. Of course, the secretary sitting outside would not understand Sun Zhan's inner pain. She was always worried and heard things being smashed heavily from the office, howling like wild beasts, and various sounds that could not be explained in detail, but were very frightening. She didn't understand what kind of tragedy was being staged behind the closed door? The secretary didn't care about the real plot, but just prayed silently and tremblingly, and never let herself become one of the characters.
Sun Zhan's brain was filled with sadness and hatred, and his thinking gradually became slower. However, the subjective consciousness was not affected. He wiped away his tears, pointed the computer screen with his trembling fingers, entered a long string of passwords, and searched for the parts he needed in the complicated information like a madman.
According to normal procedures, all cases involving soldiers must be handled by the military legal department. The Air Force only transmits the captured surveillance footage to Sun Zhan for the sake of the identity of Ye Xiangyang and others. This emergency has been included in the primary handling schedule of the Military Law Headquarters. The U Infantry Division, which is closest to the site of the incident, also sent a special person to investigate the on-site environment and find clues that can become clues.
This is just a move on the scene. As the director of the administrative headquarters, Sun Zhan naturally knows how effective these actions can be? It is now during the war, and dying people is similar to dying ant. Not to mention school officials like Ye Xiangyang, even if a senior general like himself is killed, the military and legal department must also conduct evidence investigations on the people involved based on the situation.
These so-called measures are actually not needed at all. Even if the murderer is found, the military and legal department will not directly execute him, but will be imprisoned, sent to the front line, and charged into the fighting force. If the murderer is a senior officer with heavy troops, the handling method will change accordingly. Either demoted or issued a military diplomat. In short, each officer has more or less a corresponding background behind him. The bureaucratic style in peacetime can still be effective now. After all, no one knows that he will make a mistake one day? When will the subordinate officer be promoted and become his superior?
Sun Zhan is the beneficiary of this stolen trend. He has protected many officers who should have received punishments such as demotion. Those people naturally reciprocate him, and their circle of confidants has expanded. Once this dirty habit is recognized by most people, it will be difficult to eliminate. If you want to truly retaliate against the murderer, you must find the target before the military and legal department draws a conclusion. Otherwise, even if the guy is caught, he may not be sentenced to death.
There are tens of thousands of information entries displayed on the screen. All of these are records of large and small transactions that occurred within 48 hours before the murder scene. They include a series of information such as replacement of checkpoint personnel from neighboring troops, such as exercises, training. According to relevant regulations, such transactions must be entered into the computer on time, connected to the satellite network, and reviewed from the military department. Thanks to the powerful computing power of large computers, these information will be classified and stored in a short period of time and become information available for call at any time.
With Sun Zhan's authority, he can naturally review and search. He doesn't need any so-called evidence at all. He is very clear that there are only a few opponents. Yuan family, Zhao Zhikai, Wang Qinian... If the classification is refined and more specific, Zhuang Yuye, the current commander of the UU Infantry Division, cannot escape the relationship. If the analysis scope continues to expand based on the # domain, then Su Hao, who is far away in the direction of the new Guiyang, can also be included.
Finding categories is a tedious and hard job, but Sun Zhan does not feel tired. He is more energetic than ever, and his eyes are not sour when he stares at the screen for a long time. Under the control of hatred and anger, his brain becomes unprecedentedly clear. He quickly selects the parts he needs from the complicated information, arranges them in sequence, enlarges the fonts, and displays them in the center of the screen.
Item 1: At 12:09 noon yesterday, the Air Force Early Warning Plane discovered a convoy of three military off-road vehicles, departing from the new Guiyang base along the old highway and heading towards Jishou. Since no corresponding records were received, the monitoring crew immediately called the convoy to express their identity and intentions. After investigation, it was the liaison officer sent by the 11th Independent Force to the UU Infantry Division, and wanted to seek food and medicine and other material assistance.
Entry 2: At 137 p.m. yesterday, five heavy military transport aircraft from the direction of New Urumqi landed in the Second Southeast War Zone. Records show that it was the precise scientific research instruments urgently transported to the war zone by the northern front. However, in the surveillance footage uploaded by the airport, these transport aircraft did not unload the container, but instead walked out of the cabin with live ammunition. Based on the number of personnel filmed at that time, it just matched the maximum loading capacity of the aircraft.
Entry 3: At 4:22 am yesterday, the UU Infantry Division conducted an emergency off-road training. According to the training + plan reported by the division commander Zhuang Yuye two weeks ago, this night gathering should have been carried out next week. However, since the meteorological department determined that there was large-scale rainfall in the area during the specified period, the plan could only be advanced.
There are more than twenty similar entries. Compared with the three items arranged in the first ones, most of the other entries seem inconsistent with the facts in terms of time, or the content is not paying enough attention.
Looking at the words on the screen, Sun Zhan rubbed the corners of his wrinkled eyes, sighed, and fell into a deep state.
The three items correspond to Su Hao, Yuan Jia, and Zhuang Yuye. Judging from the time, they all have the possibility of suspected murder, have sufficient motives and reasons, and have the right time.
After thinking for a long time, Sun Zhan raised his hand and crossed the third item off the screen.
He had met Zhuang Yuye, a well-established military officer, kind and serious in daily affairs. Zhuang Yuye should be very clear about his intention to send Ye Xiangyang to serve as the Executive Minister of UU Pei. But he never protested or expressed opposition, and rarely had direct conflicts with Ye Xiangyang. Recently, because of concentrating his efforts to deal with Su Hao, Ye Xiangyang did not perform more actions within UU Pei, and his control and influence had not changed at all. From a normal perspective, Zhuang Yuye had no reason to start at this time. Therefore, although he had the opportunity and possibility of killing, he was the least suspected of the three.
Looking at entry one and entry two, Sun Zhan felt an indescribable irritability.
If the inference is not correct, the murderer should be one of Su Hao and Yuan Zhicheng. In fact, even if Ye Xiangyang and others were not killed, Sun Zhan would still have to concentrate on dealing with them. Su Hao and himself had enough hatred, and he even killed my only nephew. Yuan Zhicheng was the biggest obstacle to the administrative department's infiltration of the combat troops. The damn old bastard had already grasped a lot of power in his hand, but he still did not allow others to get involved. Damn, why should all the benefits be yours? But I can't even take a sip of soup?
Whether Su Hao or Yuan Zhicheng, it is not easy to deal with anyone. Although Sun Zhan has control over several combat troops, he cannot transfer it from the front line, let alone crossing the war zone and heading to the southwest to siege the new Guiyang. Not to mention that Zhao Zhikai and the Military Commission would not agree. The views of those old guys remained consistent since the outbreak of the virus, saying that they were concentrating their efforts on mutant creatures, and that they were strictly prohibited from attacking each other, so as to avoid internal friction as much as possible. But in fact, the genius knew what they were making?
From the moment the virus broke out, Sun Zhan knew that this country was actually done. In fact, all countries in the world are the same, and there is no so-called government anymore. The fact that the general leads his army to independence is a fact that everyone knows. Without the legal and social framework, his ambitions are infinitely amplified. Of course, the common enemy of mankind is still the virus, and it is a mutant creature entrenched in abandoned cities. However, as long as he occupies the base city and has armed forces, anyone can become the lord of the separatist forces.
Sun Zhan has always not understood why. Zhao Zhikai, Wang Qinian, and several other people from the Military Commission are undoubtedly insiders. But they never announce the news to the public, and many problems seem mysterious to Sun Zhan. Sometimes, Sun Zhan even thinks that Zhao Zhikai plans to establish a new regime and ascend to the throne like the ancients.
This kind of thing is entirely possible. Without higher power institutions supervision, the people's authority has almost been suppressed to a historical low. They may never be able to participate in politics, and propaganda institutions also serve individuals completely. This is actually a sign of dictatorship, smashing democracy and returning to imperial power.
Putting away his chaotic thoughts, Sun Zhan leaned back on the chair, and quickly flashed all the information records available in his mind.
After a long silence, he finally clicked on the screen again and connected the remote contact with the advanced permission password. Soon, Lieutenant General Chen Yanlin, the chief of staff of the 71st Army, appeared on the screen.
"Haha, Old Chen, it's been a long time since. How are you doing recently?"
Sun Zhan was smiling, but there was no smile on his face.
Chen Yanlin was surprised by the sudden communication. He never expected that the other party was Sun Zhan. As the chief of staff of the group army, Chen Yanlin certainly knew the name of the director of the administrative headquarters, but the two had never had any intersection, let alone what Sun Zhan said, "Long time no see". This sudden and strange feeling is as strange as a prefecture-level county magistrate and district head in a remote area suddenly received a call from the president of the country, claiming extremely intimately that "we will go fishing together when we have time."
From the General to the General, the difference is only one level. However, in terms of identity and treatment, there are huge differences.
For a long time, Sun Zhan's targets were military chief officials. He only valued capable and powerful young people. It's not that he had no interest in old officers over fifty years old, but that compared with young people, those old people had more ideas and more complex thoughts. They considered problems more comprehensively and were easily attracted by simple terms. They had seen too much, and had rich experience and experience, and many of them were difficult to get promoted. In addition, they already had a high position as a general, of course they were not as good as ordinary lieutenants, and were easily attracted by school officials.
Chen Yanlin is already the chief of staff of the army and is appointed as the lieutenant general. Further up, he is the commander and general of the army. Even Sun Zhan himself would not agree to such a generous condition. If he really had such a position, he would rather arrange it to his confidants than to be cheaper to others.
Chen Yanlin knew a little about Sun Zhan’s ideas in this regard. Therefore, he was very surprised by the communication from the Executive Minister and was not prepared for any ideological reasons.
"Old Chen, don't be so weird. I just talk to you casually, there is no other meaning."
There was no sadness or pain on Sun Zhan's face, and tears had already been left in it. The dim light and special vision made him look no different from usual. With a kind and kind smile, his words and demeanor were in line with the identity and demeanor of the superior.
"What's the climate in New Chengdu? Can you still adapt? Is it hot?"
"Do you have any good suggestions for the resettlement of civilians?"
"How is your body? The enhancement agent should have a good effect on physical fitness, right? Look at your red face, you are getting younger and younger..."
Both of them were greeting, and Sun Zhan chose a very ordinary topic, which was the most commonly used tone when colleagues met. He deliberately eliminated the hierarchical relationship between the two, making Chen Yanlin forget the level of each other's positions. In addition, they were both old people, and their common hobbies in age and certain things. Half an hour later, the originally stiff and awkward atmosphere of conversation had become quite intimate.
Chen Yanlin was a little confused about Sun Zhan's changes. He kept his mind at the right time and tried not to let the other party find a handle for use in his words. Soon, he found that this worry was redundant. Sun Zha was not hostile and had no element worth worrying about. Perhaps, as he said, it was because he had been staying at the Beijing No. 1 base for a long time, bored and distressed, that he casually found someone to pass the time.
Sun Zhan held up the reading glasses that were slightly sliding down from the bridge of his nose, and quietly changed the topic.
"Recently, we have suffered many casualties in the Eastern Front, and the number of supplementary soldiers has been insufficient. It's not that the people below are perfunctory on this issue, but that there are problems with our own training mechanism. In my opinion, the training cycle of recruits is too long and should be shortened. If it really doesn't work, you can also bring civilians to the battlefield and select survivors to supplement through actual combat. What do you think?"
This issue is almost a cliché. From last year to this year, it has been mentioned at all meetings of the military. Chen Yanlin did not understand what Sun Zhan’s purpose was, so he could only hum and deal with it. He neither nodded nor shook his head, and said vague words such as “um”, “oh”, “ah”, “um”, “um” and “um” in his mouth.
Sun Zhan refused to comment. He continued to say in a plain tone: "I think the best way is to actually rotate the troops stationed in various places and launch attacks on the eastern and northern fronts respectively. Many combat troops chief officials have proposed that the practice of garrisoning in different regions is not fair. Most of the densely populated cities are in the eastern coastal areas, and the troops stationed here are suffering heavy casualties. Since the war started, the death rate of more than half of the troops has exceeded 80%, and from division commanders to soldiers, they have been almost rotated. Looking at other war zones, it really makes people feel psychologically unbalanced and difficult to accept."
"This statement is too much of a matter of fact."
Chen Yanlin obviously disagreed with Sun Zhan’s idea: “The 71st Army is not idle either. Every abandoned city has mutated creatures, and our combat intensity and pressure are not small. Chengdu has always been an important city in the southwest region. We fight every day, and the soldiers below are very brave. On this issue, it is the same both on the front line and in the rear, with casualties everywhere.”
"Yes, many people died in battle, and they are lucky to survive."
Sun Zhan nodded with emotion and said, "Sometimes I think about it, I also want to go to the front line to fight a good battle. Strengthening potions can only transform physical fitness, but they do not mean increasing lifespan. In limited days, we all have to try our best to play our role."
Without waiting for Chen Yanlin to answer, Sun Zhan continued: "I have already reported to the Military Commission. In fact, my requirements are not high, and titles such as the Minister of Administration are not important. If possible, I am willing to command an army or even a division. I just want to try my best to make the rest of my life, and die meaningfully, and not so regretful."
The last sentence seemed to touch a string in Chen Yanlin's heart. His eyes twitched slightly and asked seriously: "So, how did the military department respond?"
"It's not a cliché."
Sun Zhan shook his head with a wry smile, while carefully watching every change on Chen Yanlin's face: "The combat troops have their own chief officers. If you want to fill the position, you must wait for the existing people to leave."
