Special forces soldier demobilization: Starting from the county government compound, a meteoric rise

The next morning, Liu Ming took office.

His new office was not in the county government building, but was arranged in the Chengnan area demolition command center.

It was a makeshift operation made up of a few dilapidated prefabricated houses.

When Liu Ming pushed open the rickety iron gate, he was greeted by a gloomy and desolate atmosphere.

There are only seven or eight people in the office.

They were all either sighing or looking gloomy. Several of them had thick bandages wrapped around their heads and arms, clearly having been "gloriously injured" a few days ago when they went to deliver the relocation notice.

The entire office was filled with a decadent, defeatist atmosphere.

When Liu Ming came in, these people just lazily raised their eyelids, and then lowered their heads again to do their own thing.

Some were reading newspapers, some were playing cards on their phones, and one was even leisurely trimming his toenails with nail clippers.

They completely disregarded Liu Ming, the new "commander-in-chief."

joke!

Even the three previous directors of the demolition office, who were actually in charge, all failed because of the tough issue in the south of the city.

You're just a greenhorn in your early twenties, barely out of hair, and you think you can take on this tough challenge?

Stop kidding me!

They saw through it all long ago.

This is a trap, a dead end.

Whoever comes here is doomed.

They're just wasting their lives waiting to die.

Liu Ming looked at the scene before her, a scene of utter despair, and felt no anger.

He simply pulled up a chair and sat down.

"Smack."

He threw a thick file on the table.

"This is the information of all residents in the Chengnan area, as well as all the work records of the three previous failed demolition attempts."

His voice wasn't loud, but it made everyone slacking off instinctively stop what they were doing.

"I spent the whole night watching it."

"I've discovered a very interesting phenomenon."

Liu Ming leaned back in his chair, his gaze sharp as a sword, sweeping over everyone present.

"Your strategy was the same for the first three demolitions."

"First, we went door-to-door to do ideological work, explain the policies, and reason with people."

"When you encounter people who are unreasonable, you increase the demolition compensation in an attempt to subdue them with money."

"And the result?"

He gave a cold laugh.

"Nobody listens to reason. Money isn't enough to feed them."

"In the end, someone broke his leg and overturned his car."

"Don't you think it's ridiculous?"

His words were like resounding slaps to the faces of everyone present.

The pedicurist put down his nail clippers.

The person playing Dou Dizhu turned off their phone.

A hint of shame and... dissatisfaction appeared on their faces.

One of the most senior staff members, his face wrapped in bandages, couldn't help but retort:

"Director Liu... you're new here and don't know the situation! Those troublemakers in the south of the city aren't human! They're a bunch of insatiable ingrates! If you try to reason with them, they act like thugs! If you act like thugs, they pull out knives! We... we have no choice!"

"no way?"

Liu Ming laughed, a laugh filled with endless mockery.

"No."

"It's not that you can't do it."

"You're all too weak!"

"You've chosen the wrong target from the very beginning!"

He suddenly stood up and slammed his hand hard on the map of the southern part of the city on the table.

"Bang!"

A loud bang!

The entire prefabricated house shook three times from the shock.

Everyone's heart skipped a beat!

Do you think your enemies are ordinary, uninformed civilians?

"wrong!"

"Your real enemies are those local bullies who lurk behind the scenes, inciting the masses to cause trouble and getting rich by being 'holdouts'! They are those thugs who collude with criminal gangs to control the entire underground order in the south of the city!"

"To catch the thief, first catch the king!"

"Strike the snake at its vital point!"

"You don't even know where the king snake's vital spot is, yet you recklessly rushed into the bushes! No wonder you got bitten to death!"

His words were a wake-up call.

Like a sudden, sharp blow to the head!

He woke up all the muddle-headed "old hands" present with a scolding.

They were all stunned as they stared at the young man before them, who exuded a powerful aura and had eyes as sharp as knives.

This was the first time they had discovered that demolition work could be understood from this perspective.

"Then... then Director Liu, what do you mean...?" the veteran staff member asked cautiously and tentatively.

"My meaning is very simple."

A cold killing intent flashed in Liu Ming's eyes.

"Starting today, we will change the working policy of our demolition command center."

"The demolition will not proceed."

"Then...what should we do?"

"**Crack down on organized crime.**"

Liu Ming uttered two words that sent chills down everyone's spines.

"First, sweep this area in the south of the city clean!"

"Pull out all those troublemakers and ringleaders!"

"When the people here no longer see us in fear but welcome us..."

"Let's talk to them calmly about the demolition and relocation again."

He looked at the crowd and spoke in an unquestionable, commanding tone:

"Now, compile all the information on the ringleaders of all the holdout households in the south of the city, all the thugs, and all the people with criminal records!"

"I need the most detailed information!"

"Including what time they leave home and return home each day, which mahjong parlor they like to play at, and who they have business dealings with!"

"I don't care what methods you use! Steal, rob, cheat, or whatever!"

"I must see this list before I leave work today!"

……

Liu Ming's new strategy of "cracking down on organized crime before demolishing houses" spread like wildfire back to the county government building.

Wen Boyan and Xi Wanqing's eyes lit up after hearing this, but then they both felt a pang of worry for him.

This approach is undoubtedly correct and is the only possible way to break the deadlock.

But it is undoubtedly also the most dangerous!

This is tantamount to going head-to-head with the entire underground forces in the south of the city!

Upon hearing this news, Li Yuankui simply sat in his office and let out a disdainful sneer.

Crackdown on organized crime?

You're just a lone commander?

Do you think those desperate criminals in the south of the city are just a bunch of rabble under Nine Fingers?

Young people are too naive.

……

evening.

A very detailed list of 37 "destabilizing factors" of all sizes in the southern part of the city was placed on Liu Ming's desk.

Liu Ming stared at the list with icy eyes.

He picked up the phone and dialed the number of Lei Tie, the police chief.

"Director Lei, I need your help."

"Brother Liu, just name your price! I'll do whatever it takes to make it happen!" Lei Tie said enthusiastically on the other end of the phone.

"I need your twenty best SWAT officers."

"no problem!"

"I also need high-resolution maps of every nook and cranny in the southern part of the city, as well as case files for all the security cases from the past month."

"No problem!"

"Finally..." Liu Ming paused, "I need you to do me a personal favor."

"you say!"

"Help me contact the county's armed forces department. Tell them I want to 'borrow' fifty good young men from this year's demobilized soldiers who are skilled, quick-witted, and haven't found jobs yet."

"The reason given was that our project team lacked security guards."

Lei Tie remained silent on the other end of the phone.

He felt like he had guessed what Liu Ming was planning to do.

This madman...

He's trying to build his own... "private army"!

"Brother Liu... are you going to go this far?"

"Not much," Liu Ming said calmly. "How can we possibly sweep away all the... demons and monsters in Qingyun County?"

Lei Tie took a deep breath.

Finally, he gritted his teeth.

"good!"

"I'll help you!"

hang up the phone.

Liu Ming stood up and walked to the window.

Night had fallen outside the window.

In the distance, lights began to twinkle in the southern part of the city.

Behind those lights lie countless sins and darkness.

A fierce fighting spirit ignited in Liu Ming's eyes.

He felt as if he had returned to that war-torn border jungle.

He picked up the walkie-talkie and pressed the call button.

"The entire Dragon Shield security team is present."

"Level 1 combat readiness."

"Prepare for action."
