Hou Liangping arrested a hawkish general, and his father-in-law panicked

He always thought that he was strong enough and numb enough, but at this moment, he felt that his heart was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand, and the pain was so severe that he could hardly breathe.

In front of these martyrs who filled the valleys with their lives and built the Great Wall with their flesh and blood, his ambition, struggle, and so-called "injustice" are nothing!

Simply ridiculous!

Zhou Shoujing turned around, and his cold gaze, like a searchlight, slowly swept across everyone's face.

He did not go to see Sha Ruijin again, nor did he go to see Gao Yuliang and Li Dakang again.

He looked at everyone.

Zhou Shoujing remained silent.

However, silent questions kept ringing in everyone's mind.

"Who gave you the courage to act tyrannically despite the sacrifices of their predecessors?!"

"Who gave you the power to use their blood-stained flag as a fig leaf?!"

[Have we preserved the peace that our ancestors sacrificed their lives for?]

Chapter 20 Martyrs

The video footage of the video discipline has been shut down.

The history of the 20th Army and General Zhao Yuanchao's tactics.

It still leaves everyone in shock, unable to extricate themselves.

The conference room was still silent.

The projector's cooling fan made a low humming sound.

Sha Ruijin kept thinking about his wife who was waiting for her husband with her child in her arms, but in the end all she got was a martyr's banner.

Gao Yuliang sat upright, his eyes behind the glasses were as deep as wells, and his slightly tense jawline revealed his extreme inner restlessness.

As for Qi Tongwei, he felt his back was soaked with cold sweat.

In the video footage, General Zhao Yuanchao had a calm face and eyes that looked at him as if he were looking at an ant.

The scene replayed over and over in his mind, making him, the Public Security Bureau Chief, feel for the first time what true contempt from the pinnacle of power was.

Zhou Shoujing, the chief of staff of the 20th Army, was the only person in the audience who remained absolutely calm.

He unplugged the laptop cable with an expressionless face, finally ending the video that had caused a huge uproar.

He coiled the cables neatly and put them in his bag.

Every movement was performed with the precision and neatness unique to soldiers. This calmness itself constituted an invisible yet heavy pressure.

Finally, he zipped up his computer bag and looked up.

He took out a black, inconspicuous USB flash drive from his pocket, gently placed it on the smooth mahogany conference table, and pushed it towards Sha Ruijin.

"I'll leave you the video footage of the 20th Army."

His voice was not loud and he spoke in a plain and straightforward manner, but it stirred new ripples in the hearts of everyone present.

Leave information?

What does it mean?

Should we let them learn or warn them?

No one dared to ask.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Shoujing's gaze turned and accurately locked onto Public Security Bureau Director Qi Tongwei.

There was no anger or questioning in that look, only cold, pure scrutiny.

"Where was General Zhao attacked from?"

The questions were short and direct.

Without any nonsense, he went straight to the core of the matter.

In an instant, the air in the entire conference room was sucked dry.

Qi Tongwei's brain buzzed and went blank.

He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Location of the attack?

Damn it, if I knew that, why would I be sitting here?!

Last night, he brought the elite of the entire provincial department and almost turned Jinghai upside down.

The badly smashed Audi was parked in Buckingham's parking lot, but all the surrounding surveillance, all the witnesses, and all the clues pointed to one result - no result.

How did the car get there?

Where did the person disappear?

How many people are there on the other side?

What weapons were used?

I don’t know if I ask three questions!

This is simply the biggest shame in his police career!

He could feel the gaze of Gao Yuliang, the provincial party committee deputy secretary, fixed on the side of his face.

That was his teacher, and also his biggest supporter. At this moment, his eyes were filled with disappointment and...

Subtle coldness.

A drop of sweat broke free from the hairline on Qi Tongwei's forehead and slowly slid down his temple. He felt itchy, but he didn't dare to raise his hand to wipe it.

He could only sit there stiffly, like a prisoner awaiting trial.

Zhou Shoujing did not urge him, he just looked at Qi Tongwei quietly, but the sense of oppression in his eyes increased exponentially.

His silence is more terrifying than any words he says.

This silence is a silent torture of the entire political and legal system of Handong Province.

Time passed second by second, and every second was a torture to Qi Tongwei's dignity.

Just when this suffocating atmosphere was about to reach its climax—"We will definitely find Commander Zhao!"

With a bang, the chair was pushed back suddenly.

Sha Ruijin stood up.

He supported himself on the table with both hands and leaned forward slightly. This action instantly gave him the commanding heights of the entire aura.

His voice was loud and firm, shattering the solidified air.

He did not look at Qi Tongwei who was extremely embarrassed, but looked directly at Zhou Shoujing with unquestionable majesty in his eyes.

"We will definitely not hold the 20th Army back."

This is not a simple guarantee, it is a military order issued in the name of the Secretary of the Handong Provincial Party Committee!

When his subordinates were speechless and Handong's face was about to be trampled on, Sha Ruijin, the airborne leader, stood up without hesitation and took all the pressure and responsibility on his shoulders.

Gao Yuliang's eyes moved slightly.

He looked at Sha Ruijin's back with complicated eyes.

There is admiration, but also caution.

Sha Ruijin's move not only saved the face of the Handong Provincial Party Committee, but also temporarily rescued himself, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, and Qi Tongwei.

But he knew in his heart that this was only temporary.

The military order has been issued. If the person cannot be found, the first people to be held accountable will be Gao Yuliang and his student Qi Tongwei.

Sha Ruijin will be in an advantageous position where he can attack or defend.

Good trick!

Qi Tongwei secretly let out a long sigh of relief. The clothes on his back were stuck to his body, wet and cold.

For the first time, there was genuine gratitude in his eyes when he looked at Sha Ruijin.

However, Zhou Shoujing's face still had that unchanging icy expression.

After listening to Sha Ruijin's words, he just nodded slowly, the amplitude of his nod was so small that it was almost negligible.

There was no relief or trust in those eyes.

Saying, "I heard you. Now, show me."

Zhou Shoujing looked at everyone present, his eyes as if he was reviewing a defeated army, cold and scrutinizing.

His thin lips moved, and the words he uttered hit the ground with a resounding sound.

"Since the military order has been issued, let's adjourn the meeting."

There was no unnecessary courtesy, no intention to ease the atmosphere.

As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around, and the sound of his military boots stepping on the floor struck the hearts of these senior officials of Handong Province.

The stagnant air in the conference room finally showed signs of moving.

The sound of chairs being gently pulled open came one after another, but no one dared to make too much noise for fear of disturbing anything.

Sha Ruijin, Gao Yuliang, Li Dakang and Qi Tongwei, four people, like a string of puppets pulled by invisible silk threads, followed Zhou Shoujing tacitly.

Walking out of the conference room, the long corridor was empty and quiet, which only made the chaotic footsteps of several people more prominent.

Zhou Shoujing walked in front, his steps were not big, but his invisible aura made it almost impossible for the people behind him to breathe.

Sha Ruijin and Gao Yuliang were on the left and right, slightly behind by half a step.

Li Dakang's eyes rolled, and he took two quick steps, squeezing to the front and side of Gao Yuliang, shortening the distance between him and Zhou Shoujing.

He put on a warm and considerate smile, and the suffocating depression in the meeting room just now had never appeared.

"Chief of Staff Zhou,"

Li Dakang's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for Zhou Shoujing to hear clearly, without sounding overly flattering. "We've arranged for you to live in the Armed Forces Department, and the security is absolutely top-notch. It's in the suburbs of Jingzhou, right next to Shanshui Manor. The environment is great, nestled between the mountains and the water. You can go there to have fun and have some fun when you have some free time."
