Chapter 1734 Special Operations and Interviews

"This incident is extremely serious! A group of poachers are simply lawless... Fortunately, the final outcome was not bad, and the deputy county head and other members of the patrol team were all unharmed."

But the news has already spread. Our Mazhi County isn't big, so anything that happens spreads like wildfire. Now everyone in the county knows how rampant the poachers are.

The county is still trying to attract investment, and the people they finally managed to bring in, only to find out this is the situation here, who would want to invest here? This matter must be thoroughly investigated. We must join forces with Tianduo City to dig deep and dig thoroughly, bringing all the criminals involved in this group to justice..."

Secretary Chen was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table and assigned tasks to everyone, mainly to crack down on poachers in the near future and to send more police to track down the three escaped poachers. The ringleader was still in the car, and the ringleader had to be brought to justice.

After the matter was settled, someone suggested: "I think we should publicize it appropriately. Although poachers are so rampant that they dare to attack state cadres, this time, Deputy County Chief Duo led the patrol team to fight against the odds and captured 24 people alive. Only one member of the patrol team was injured in the shoulder."

Such an event is rare not only here, but also nationwide. It fully demonstrates the achievements of Mazhi County in combating poaching. If publicized properly, it can actually reassure potential investors in Mazhi County and also showcase our work to higher-level leaders.”

Dorje couldn't help but glance at the man.

After such a major incident, he naturally wanted to publicize it. Not for any other reason than to show the patrol team's fighting capabilities to those poachers who wanted to make their fortune in Bolamula: thirty-nine men killed twelve and captured twenty-four, and all of them received heavy sentences.

If we could further publicize the previous two arrests of Daji and Li Yongqiang's groups, it would deter poachers from further actions. While it wouldn't stop those who would risk their lives for money, it could deter the more timid, thus reducing the number of poachers significantly.

But he couldn't mention it himself, because after all, he was the leader of the patrol team, and publicity would definitely need to focus on him. If he brought it up himself, it would seem as if he desperately wanted to promote himself, which wouldn't be good.

"agree!"

Dorje looked over at the sound and saw that it was Lin Peisheng who had spoken.

“We can’t suppress this matter, nor can we hide it. Since that’s the case, let’s just make a big deal out of it and turn this bad thing into a good thing. No, it was originally a good thing. Here’s what I’m doing, Secretary, I’ll contact the newspaper and find a reporter to come and interview us, and give our Mazhi County a good publicity.”

Secretary Chen nodded, and the matter was settled. After discussing some other matters, the meeting adjourned, and everyone went back to their own tasks.

After the meeting, Lin Peisheng called Dorje into his office for a talk.

"You've really gotten yourself into trouble this time, haven't you? If it weren't for Wang Yan's timely rescue, your whole team would have been killed."

Lin Peisheng slammed the cup down in front of Dorje. "I read the interrogation records from the police yesterday, and they were horrifying. Old Dorje, you really escaped with your life this time. I told you before, but you just kept going up in rank, and so did Wang Yan. A perfectly good college student, and after hanging out with you, he's become a ruthless killer. Twenty lives on his hands! Twenty!"

Lin Peisheng held up two fingers and gestured heavily.

"Nineteen articles," Dorje corrected.

"Is there one more we need?"

Dorjee said with a smile, "Wang Yan is a sharpshooter. We won't be able to catch the poachers unless we beat them so badly they don't dare to fight back."

"But it was precisely because of his accurate marksmanship that you arrested two groups of people earlier, which led to this mess today. Lao Duo, even if you don't think about yourself, you should at least think about Cairin's sister-in-law and Zhaxi, right?"

"Then what can we do?" Dorje shook his head with a smile. "Things still need to be done. You've seen how rampant the poachers are. They only reacted so strongly because we hit a nerve."

"Have you ever thought that poachers might retaliate against your family?"

"We can't just give up, can we?"

Seeing Dorje's expression, Lin Peisheng breathed a sigh of relief: "If you don't listen to me, there's no point in saying all this. Anyway, be careful, this isn't over yet. The weather's getting warmer, and I bet people will start fishing for brine shrimp and panning for gold again. Fishing for brine shrimp is alright, but those panning for gold are no less dangerous than poachers."

“They’re all actually the same group of people,” Dorjee continued. “Cashmere is good, so they hunt sheep. When the weather gets warmer, they pan for gold. They do whatever makes money.”

"Then why don't you look for gold mines too? Wouldn't it be better if we opened our own?" Lin Peisheng said with exasperation. "Even if you want to protect Bolamula, we can bring the raw materials from Bolamula back to the county for processing. Wouldn't that be the same? It would also provide dozens or even hundreds of jobs for the county. Why don't you think of these things?"

“Wang Yan gave you his report, so you went to explore it. My point was to develop it on the basis of protection, but I never said not to develop it, much less opposed it.”

What about all those reports you did before?

Dorjee understood; Lin Peisheng still wanted the report he had done before. Wang Yan's visit was too brief, limiting the area he could explore.

He said, "Our report is inaccurate. The big boss came over before and paid hundreds of thousands in compensation."

“I have already arranged for people to conduct further exploration in Bolamulla, mainly based on the report that Wang Yan has made so far, and your previous reports can be used as a reference.”

“Some of these are animal habitats, which cannot be moved, and I definitely have to remove them.”

"Don't worry, I just want to develop the places you mentioned. If you don't agree, then the work can't move forward."

Dorjee, of course, did not believe Lin Peisheng's words. After all, Lin Peisheng was the second-in-command, while Dorjee had the least power among the many executives. There was no way to stop Lin Peisheng from pushing forward various matters through normal channels. The only option was to make a fuss with higher-ups, but that would damage unity and ruin even more things...

"I hope you can keep your word. I'll send the report to you tomorrow. Bye."

Dorjee got up and left decisively, leaving Lin Peisheng with no choice but to let out a helpless sigh. He was truly furious with Dorje...

Once the county reached a consensus, all matters were quickly expedited. The twenty-four people captured were all subjected to a series of interrogations by the public security, procuratorate, and judicial authorities. After learning of the incident, the people of Tianduo City expressed their concern for the patrol team, their outrage at the poachers' audacity, and their appreciation for the work of the Mazhi County leadership.

Tendo City, together with Machi County, jointly investigated the case, extracting every last penny from all thirty-six people, both those captured alive and those who died. This makes sense; setting aside the profit motive, the expenses of handling so many cases alone are considerable.

Based on the confessions of those arrested, the whereabouts of the three escapees were located, and an investigation was launched focusing on their network of connections—a thorough and meticulous investigation. Not only that, but the investigation went even further, reaching the provincial level. Within two days, the case was upgraded again, placed under provincial supervision. Provincial resources were mobilized to expand the search and arrest of the criminals.

At the same time, the province also highly affirmed the work of Mazhi County, commended Dorje, the leader in charge of fighting against criminals, and gave relevant honors to Wang Yan, a college student from a prestigious university who took the initiative to support the border areas, played an absolutely crucial role, and saved the lives of Dorje and several others.

In the original drama, Dorje died, and because there was no evidence, no results, and no trace of him, it was full of mysteries and violated relevant laws and regulations, so it was indeed difficult to handle.

But now that Dorje has been surrounded and killed, and he is alive, the facts are clear, and so many people have even been captured alive, that's a different story. This is a provocation against national dignity and a disruption of local peace, especially since this is a minority area where there have been issues that have undermined ethnic unity in recent years. That is an extremely serious matter.

This sparked a major crackdown, resulting in the arrest and dismantling of poaching gangs, disruption of the supply chain, and crackdowns on related smuggling groups. It was a targeted special operation, far more efficient than the patrol teams' efforts.

After all, patrol teams address problems at the grassroots level, while this provincial operation tackled the entire poaching network. Those caught selling stolen goods were interrogated about who supplied them, who they were smuggling to next, and who the bosses were. Some were arrested, while others fled when things got tense…

The most obvious point is that half a month has passed, spring is about to arrive, but the patrol team has not received any news from the herders below that anyone has gone into the mountains again.

Such a intensive special operation has left a vacuum for poachers, causing widespread panic...

On the plateau, the sky seems lower, and the thick clouds seem almost within reach.

The two vehicles, trailing a cloud of dust, pulled up one after the other at the patrol team's camp. Wang Yan opened the car door, jumped out, grabbed his belongings, and waved to the driver. Then the two vehicles drove away.

Wang Yan raised his hand to fan away the dust, picked up his bag, and walked into the courtyard.

"College student, you're finally back! You don't know how many people have been looking for you." Samba greeted him anxiously. "You should go to the county. If it weren't for the fact that it's hard to find you in Bolamula, they would have gone straight there."

Previously, both the county and city authorities wanted to understand the situation, and there were subsequent interviews. Wang Yan's experience was legendary, and he had many things to promote, so much so that everyone wanted to interview him, even overshadowing Dorje, the supervising leader. Later, people from the provincial capital also came, following the same procedure.

Wang Yan, of course, didn't want to be a mascot all day, so he approached Lin Peisheng and volunteered to go into the mountains with the people Lin Peisheng had found for exploration. The team didn't leave the mountains until their supplies were almost exhausted.

"They haven't left yet?"

“It’s not just that they haven’t left yet, more people have come, and even more of them have been interviewing us for several days.”

Samba said excitedly, "The article you sent out before has been published. More people have come to interview you lately, saying they want to do an exclusive interview with you. A whole bunch of reporters have come. I don't really understand, but you should go to the county soon, they're all waiting for you. Promote it more, you college student, let more people see Bolamula."

"That should solve your staffing issue, right?"

“That was just a side thing,” Samba laughed. “Now that you’ve got a permanent position, how could you forget about me? I’m genuinely happy for you and for everyone. As long as more people see Bolamula, we’ll all be fine. Alright, alright, you should hurry up and go. That car has a full tank of gas, so go ahead.”

“There’s no rush. I just came out of the mountains, I’m hungry and tired, I don’t have the energy to travel all the way to the county.” Wang Yan tossed the package to Samba. “I’m going to make beef noodles, have a good meal, and then take a long nap.”

Watching Wang Yan ascend the steps and enter the house, Samba followed behind, carrying Wang Yan's luggage: "What was that saying again, 'The emperor...'"

"The emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is."

"Yes, I feel like I'm a eunuch right now."

Wang Yan laughed heartily: "You're not exactly a eunuch, so this matter is closely related to you too. You've been wanting a government position for a long time now."

"I just want a government job, a stable job, and I won't have to worry about retirement. It's great. Make some more, I haven't had this in a long time."

"How is Zhacuo?"

“He’s being cared for at home, his wife is taking care of him.” Sangba remembered Zhacuo’s smug look when he talked about him, so he put down Wang Yan’s luggage and said, “I’m going to call the county first, otherwise they’ll scold me.”

Only Dongzhiba and Sangba remained; most of the others had gone home to rest. After all, only Zhacuo, Sangba, and a few others truly stood out; the rest were merely background figures, and even if they were interviewed, their words might not be recorded, and they might only appear briefly in group photos.

Everyone is the protagonist of their own life, but in other people's lives, they are just supporting characters, perhaps with few lines, just passersby.

Making beef noodles requires boiling broth, but fortunately there's a pressure cooker here, which saves a lot of effort. Even so, it was more than an hour later when Wang Yan finished boiling the broth and making the noodles.

After he got some wine and had been eating and drinking with Samba and Dongzhiba for a short while, they heard the sound of car tires screeching on the ground outside.

Wang Yan and the other two carried their rice bowls out of the house and saw a long line of cars parked on the road outside the courtyard. A rough look revealed that there were probably more than a dozen cars.

Samba and Dongzhiba were both stunned, their mouths agape, holding their bowls in a daze.

Wang Yan, however, was unaffected and continued to slurp up the noodles.

"Wang Yan, you've finally come out." Secretary Chen personally led the way. "Look at these comrades, they all came from afar just for you."

"Oh dear, thank you all for your hard work. Now, what do you need me to do? I'll be happy to oblige."

They all knew Wang Yan had just been released and hadn't had a proper rest, but they still started the interview. Wang Yan ate noodles and drank wine, facing a large group of reporters as if it were a press conference.

A press conference in Bolamulla...
