Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

"Reporting to Governor Chu and Secretary Gao, the team has assembled. They are all carefully selected officers. We have not yet been notified of our mission objectives. Please inspect them!"

After the two saluted, Qi Tongwei spoke.

"You can tell me now."

As Chu Shijun spoke, he walked toward the podium.

There were no fancy things like tables on it, just a microphone standing upright.

Nearby, personnel from the provincial department were filming with cameras; some of these clips would be edited and played back after the mission was completed.

"Attention, all men!"

Qi Tongwei shouted into the microphone,

More than ten people quickly stepped forward from the ranks below and began communicating with the various areas. About half a minute later, a middle-aged man ran up to the platform, saluted, and said, "Reporting to Director Qi, the expected number is 3,120, and the actual number is 3,120. The ranks are assembled. Please give your instructions!"

"Return to the team!"

Qi Tongwei returned the salute, then continued, "At ease, everyone!"

"Comrades, I think you are all very curious about the purpose of gathering you here. Now I can tell you. Today, more than three thousand of us brave soldiers have gathered here, shouldering the heavy responsibility entrusted by the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government, and carrying the expectations of the people. This operation is a joint operation between our province and the Ministry of Public Security targeting Dongshan City, Baiyun Province..."

"This operation was strongly recommended by Governor Chu to the Ministry of Public Security, with our Handong Provincial Public Security force taking the lead. This reflects the trust placed in us by the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Government, and the Ministry of Public Security. Tell me, do you have confidence?"

"Victory is certain! Victory is certain! Victory is certain!"

Qi Tongwei nodded.

"Now, I order: all participating units must obey commands and cooperate in the operation. The criminal investigation, special police, and anti-drug squads must each perform their duties. They must not only accurately raid drug manufacturing plants and seize drug precursors, but also make every effort to apprehend the suspects. No one can be let slip through! During the operation, you must pay attention to your own safety, but more importantly, you must demonstrate the courage and responsibility of the Handong Public Security Bureau. If there is any resistance, deal with it decisively and in accordance with the law!"

"Next, Governor Chu and Secretary Gao will each give a speech."

"Attention! At ease! Attention!"

"Let's give them a round of applause."

'Pa pa pa'

Qi Tongwei stepped aside, and Chu Shijun stepped forward, adjusted the microphone, solemnly glanced at the crowd below, and nodded, saying, "Hello, comrades!"

"Greetings, Governor!"

"Comrades, you've worked hard!"

"Serve the people!"

The sound was deafening, and everyone's eyes were filled with eagerness as they looked at the figure on the platform.

"Good, the men of Handong are full of spirit," Chu Shijun nodded. "Just now, Director Qi Tongwei explained the tactical requirements and, more importantly, our determination. Today's operation is not an ordinary law enforcement mission, but a crucial battle concerning the well-being of the people, the dignity of the rule of law, and social stability!"

"The joint task force of the Provincial Party Committee, the Provincial Government, and the Ministry of Public Security, after careful planning, decided to deploy over 3,000 elite personnel, with the Provincial Public Security Bureau as the main force, to declare to the whole society: We have zero tolerance for drug crimes and will never condone any criminal gangs that trample on the law!"

"In this operation, we must strike hard and accurately, but more importantly, we must strike steadily and justly! Comrades, please remember, the people's police, the people come first, we are a force that serves the people!"

"At the same time, I hope my comrades will protect themselves. You are all born of parents, go there intact and come back intact. Follow orders, and when it is time to fire, fire. You are facing criminals, this is an order!"

Many people who heard this were deeply moved.

"The Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government are your strongest backing, and the people are watching you. We hope that you will live up to your mission and the people's expectations, and with the most resolute attitude and the most powerful actions, completely eradicate this cancer and create a clean and bright world!"

Chu Shijun spoke with a resounding voice, raising his left hand and clenching his fist: "Forward! Forward! Forward!"

"Forward! Forward! Forward!"

More than three thousand people said in unison.

"Our ranks march towards the sun!"

"Our ranks march towards the sun!"

More than three thousand people raised their hands in salute, the training ground filled with a fierce atmosphere.

Chu Shijun pressed his hand down and then took two steps back.

Gao Yuliang stepped forward, also moved by the scene. He looked at the more than three thousand people below, their fighting spirit high, and said with emotion, "Comrades! Governor Chu has just set the general tone, and Director Qi has deployed the combat mission. I would like to emphasize two core requirements that will determine the final success of this operation."

"First, we must uphold the rule of law. Combating drugs and eliminating evil requires both swift and decisive action and a legal mindset. During operations, we must accurately distinguish between those involved and ordinary citizens. We must resolutely arrest and severely punish the core criminals; and we must provide education, guidance, and resettlement for innocent people who have been coerced or manipulated..."

"Second, we need to establish a robust collaborative system. This operation is not just a matter for the public security department alone..."

"I believe that under the strong leadership of the Handong Provincial Party Committee and the Ministry of Public Security, and with the joint efforts of all participating police officers, we will definitely win this battle against drugs and deliver a satisfactory report to the Party and the people! Now, I announce—the operation is ready to begin, proceed according to the established plan!"

Qi Tongwei stepped forward and announced loudly, "I hereby declare the Spring Thunder - Ice-Breaking Operation officially open! Everyone, board the vehicles in an orderly manner and maintain discipline!"

At the training ground gate, buses with special seals arrived one after another. These buses would take them to the high-speed rail station and temporary boarding points outside the station, where arrangements had been made in advance and confidentiality agreements had been signed.

"Director Qi, Deputy Director Zhao, I wish you a complete success in your operation," Chu Shijun said solemnly. "Our Provincial Party Committee awaits your triumphant return!"

"Take your comrades there safely and come back safely," Gao Yuliang said. "Their parents may be able to lift a hundred-pound stone, but they can't lift an urn weighing a few pounds."

"yes!"

"Mission accomplished!"

Qi Tongwei and Zhao Donglai saluted, then quickly stepped down from the platform and began directing the troops.

Gao Yuliang watched the buses drive away quietly, then asked softly, "Shijun, what are your thoughts on this operation?"

He seemed to be asking about the operation, but then again, he didn't.

"This is the will of the people; we will surely win, and we must win!"

Chu Shijun spoke firmly and confidently, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

"That's right, we will definitely win," Gao Yuliang's eyes gradually sharpened, "We will sweep away all the harmful insects and be invincible!"

……

That afternoon, in Jinghai City, Handong Province.

A joint operation by public security, discipline inspection and other departments has dismantled the Qiangsheng Group, and all officials in Jinghai City have been placed under investigation.

Meanwhile, the leaders of a gang that had connections with Gao Qisheng in Jinghai, including Shenhe Jia and Shenhe Yi, were also arrested and are awaiting trial.

He Liming, who was attending a meeting at the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, and Zhao Lidong, who was taking a class at the Provincial Party School, were among those taken away on the spot.

When his hands were handcuffed and his face was covered with a black cloth, Zhao Lidong felt utterly hopeless, and his legs were so weak that he couldn't stand up.

Finally, he was helped to the front of the car.

Noticing the gazes fixed on him, Zhao Lidong smiled wryly and said, "Did you hold this training course just to arrest me?"

Upon hearing this, the disciplinary committee member next to him said calmly, "They are really giving lectures. We've brought you here just to give them a warning. Party discipline and national laws will always hang over our heads. If we've gone down the wrong path, the sun will eventually shine on us."

"take away!"
