Doomsday rat

In the past two years, Lin Na has been letting him go fishing by the lake, not for food, but for self-cultivation.The effect is still there. At the beginning, Jiao Qiao could only sit for more than ten minutes, and gradually developed to an hour or two hours.Sometimes catch up with a lot of catches, and it is not bothering to fish all afternoon.

But today, it seems to have returned to the scene when I first started fishing. The fish in the water either just turned their mouths and couldn’t move their mouths when they faced the live earthworms, or they just walked away after a bite, and they were determined not to gobble them up.

After returning from Minggang Airport, Jiao Qiao burst into a mouthful of burning foam, accompanied by a waist-wrapped dragon.Although it was not a serious illness, it was painful for several days and it was difficult to sleep or eat.The weather was fine today. Before leaving, Lin Na suggested that he go fishing to relieve his nervous nerves. He didn't expect that these fish didn't give face and made trouble on purpose!

"Old Jiao, don't get angry... How about I play chess with you?"

Jiao Qiao wasn't the only one fishing, there was a middle-aged man about his age sitting about ten steps to the left, who was holding a pole to spear a fish, and caught a steamer piece the size of a palm.Just as I was about to put it in the bucket, I saw that even the fishing rod was sticking out, so I couldn't help shaking my head and smiling bitterly, and tried to persuade me.

"Doctor Hu, I figured it out. You didn't come here to treat a disease, but to take the opportunity to piss me off. Wait, I can't catch anyone if I can't catch it!" Jiao Qiao turned his head and saw someone else coming up. The fish was gone, and he was even more furious. He strode over the railing and ran back to his yard.

"Crack, bang... bang, bang... I fucking let you catch fish, grandma, I just watched you busy all morning, and I didn't even catch a single one! Crack... bang!"

After a while, he ran out of the yard again, with an extra shotgun in his hand, loaded it, aimed it, and fired it... With his front legs slightly bowed and his back legs kicked, he leaned forward, and his standing shooting movements were standard.The accuracy was also good, two shots knocked down the crooked old man in the air, and he was still angry, and fired at the corpse in the water again.

"Okay, I don't want to fish anymore, it's not fishing, it's a life-threatening..." Hu Ran put away the fishing rod, picked up the small bucket, and planned to throw all the fish back.

"Hey, don't fall, give it to me, wait for Lin Na to come back so I can deal with business... You can say it's strange, why does he like fishing so much, what's so interesting about this thing? It's not sick at first, but after a long time, it will suddenly fall ill Come." But the keg was snatched by Jiao Qiao and carefully placed outside the railing, intending to use it as a trophy.

"It's not fish...I heard that he has arrived in the safe zone in the south of the city, don't you plan to go and see?" Hu Ran was just about to explain the true meaning of fishing, but when he saw Jiao Qiao's mouth full of foam, he stopped the class again. .Playing the piano to a cow is a waste of time, but to this kind of person, you have to speak frankly, and the more you go around, the more troublesome you will be.

"What's there to see? I was originally ugly, but now half of my face is covered with scars and looks like a living ghost. Obviously I can fight for it, even if I don't want to be the chairman of the board, I will get a deputy director first. After two years You can also compete for the secretary-general based on your ability. The power is no less than that of the chairman of the board, and you have more opportunities to do practical things.

Don't you claim to be a cultural person, and you are not partial to either side, just to help me analyze what he thinks!The council is urging the government to come up with a final resolution proposal, and I'm not sure how I should vote. "

Ever since he disembarked from Jinmen Port, Hong Tao's every move has been monitored by all parties, and the armed forces are no exception.Zhang Ke's Military Development Research Office specially sent 6 researchers to find a refugee's house near the small building and rent it out, and guard it 24 hours a day with a high-powered telescope.

But since Hong Tao came back, he went straight into the small building, except for asking people to go to the street to buy mutton and food, as if he was going to have a welcome banquet, he hardly did anything, really like a driver who just came home from a long trip.

This performance not only made the royalists a little confused, but even the reformers were also a little confused.The centrists, who originally planned to take the initiative to visit, saw that there was no movement on both sides, so they simply adopted a wait-and-see attitude, and no one dared to take the first step.

"The bird knows the great ambitions, and he often thinks differently from most people. If I could predict in advance, the positions of chairman and secretary-general should have belonged to me long ago.

But Lao Jiao, he has already returned, why don't you two go and have a look, are you really afraid that someone will chew your tongue?No matter how it is finalized and how it is arranged, if he hadn't taken people to the hospital for search, many people in the government would have died of starvation and thirst.

Leaving aside the grace of saving one's life, the fact that you have struggled from scratch for more than a year and fought against zombies side by side should be the first time you see it. "

Although Hu Ran is an old man in the rescue team, he is all about medical skills and is not very sensitive to power struggles. Naturally, he can't think of what Hong Tao is trying to do in such a low-key manner.

However, he was very assertive on the issue of Hong Tao's return, and he was the first to express his welcome in the Ministry of Health.That department is the stronghold of reformists and the foundation of Chuqiu, so it's not insignificant.

"It's not that I don't want to go, it's that someone doesn't let me go!" In fact, Hu Ran was no longer making suggestions, but accusing some people of being ungrateful.Of course Jiao Qiao could tell that he didn't want to carry such a big shit bowl on his back, and he had to distinguish right away.

"...Who has such a great ability?" But Hu Ran didn't quite understand, even Chu Qiu couldn't order Jiao Qiao, and the reformers couldn't influence the neutral Minister of Armed Forces.Apart from these people, who else in the alliance has such a great ability?

"Hey, he asked Wang Jian to bring Lin Na a personal letter, demanding that all royalist officials not be allowed to visit first, and it won't be too late to visit when reformist officials move.

I just can't figure out who is the royalist, who is the reformer, who is the neutralist, and who is the fencer. After so many years, everyone has known it in their hearts. What's the point of playing this trick to deceive people now? "

"...Come on, the little clever ghost is here, you can ask him about this, he is better than the two of us put together!" Hu Ran couldn't figure out why Hong Tao did this, and was hesitating when he suddenly saw the man on the Yinding Bridge in the east. Walking by a figure, he immediately relaxed his frowning brows.

"Hurry up, give me the fishing rod, this kid is not a good guy, he often sues me behind his back!"

Jiao Qiao turned his head to look, and quickly picked up Hu Ran's fishing rod and ran back to the fishing position, throwing the bait into the water before he could hang the bait.At the same time, he didn't forget to throw his broken fishing rod into the lotus leaf bushes to destroy the corpse.

"Uncle Hu, why are you free today?" It was Zhang Ke who came, and he left in a hurry, his fat face was already sweating.But I haven't forgotten the etiquette, and greeted Hu Ran first after approaching.

"Isn't Minister Jiao a bit angry? I was arrested by Minister Lin to be my personal doctor."

Hu Ran likes to play chess in his spare time, and he is good at both chess and go.In the league, only Zhang Ke can accompany him to kill a few games with a similar level. Although the two don't belong to the same department and don't live together, they usually have a lot of contacts and have a good personal relationship.

"You can also give me a few needles later, my shoulder hurts...Uncle Jiao, you have gained a lot, did you catch it yourself?" Zhang Ke didn't stop, walked straight behind Jiao Qiao, and looked at the small bucket The fish in it is full of disbelief.

"Tsk, what are you talking about? I'm so old, I can cheat on such a trivial matter!" Jiao Qiao replied very stiffly.

"No way, when I just crossed the bridge, I saw you throwing things into the water. It's not like making a nest. Could it be casting a net?" It's a pity that Zhang Ke has been fishing with Hong Tao in Houhai since he was a child. I understand, Jiao Qiao's fishing techniques are better understood, so it's hard to fool him.

Chapter 917 Too Unexpected

"Stop talking nonsense, why are you here when you're not at the staff headquarters?" Seeing that he was about to reveal his secret, Jiao Qiao quickly changed the subject, picked up the fishing rod, and pretended to stop fishing.

"Someone has gone to the small building..." Zhang Ke really didn't come to check the fishing. He touched the frame of his glasses and said the purpose of the trip.

"Who...who..." In an instant, two voices sounded almost simultaneously, Jiao Qiao and Hu Ran were surprised and curious.

"Why don't we make a bet. Each of you guesses three times, and if you guess right once, you win. I will take out the bait formula made by Grandpa Hong and keep it for you to take the bait whenever you want to fish, no matter day or night. If you don’t guess right, hehehe, I have to choose one of your two collections.”

The more anxious others were, the slower Zhang Ke was. He opened the market without giving an answer, clarified the betting rules clearly, and made a very tempting bet.

"Don't bet...don't bet...whether you like to talk or not, I can find out with just one phone call!" It's a pity that Jiao Qiao and Hu Ran were not fooled, they were not good at letting Hong Tao use this method.What's the matter, harming others can be inherited, the master has harmed the apprentice and then continues to harm, let's dream.

"What kind of skill is that? It's useless for the two of you to keep those things, and they are easy to break after a long time. Why don't you give them to me at a low price, and then pick them up when you want to use them, which saves maintenance. In this way, I will add more Come on, how about motorcycles and jade chess?"

But Zhang Ke is Hong Tao's personal disciple after all, and he has learned a lot of tricks, so he obviously keeps his back.It doesn't matter if you don't get fooled, you have to increase the bet, and you have to do what you like, as long as you have enough capital, no one can stand it.

"...Randy? Lu Yejiangnan? Chuqiu?" Hu Ran was the first to give in, thinking about the names of three people, and he didn't even have much confidence in himself.

"...Liu Quanyou? Li Xiang? Chu Ting?" With Hu Ran leading the way, Jiao Qiao calmed down a little and chose the three most representative ones from the rest.

"It's not right at all, it's so far away..." In the end, Zhang Ke not only shook his head, but also curled his lips.

"You son of a bitch, don't tell me I'll break your dog's leg!" Jiao Qiao really couldn't stand this kind of face, so he turned around and picked up the shotgun and aimed at Zhang Ke's left leg.

"Don't play tricks. The air rifle hanging on the wall of your house belongs to me. I'll get it another day... In fact, you two were not wronged. Minister Lin and Minister Zhou also didn't guess it. I guess all departments are now inquiring about it. As for the matter, even the chairman of the board is at a loss.

If you want to say that Grandpa Hong is capable, no matter where he goes, he can make friends with his life. This is called charisma... Boom... Oh, let me say, his name is Zhang Weiping! "

If you don't look at the face, just listen to the style of speaking, Zhang Ke is indeed six or seven points like Hong Tao, and the core feature is one word, broken!No matter what it is, if you go off track while talking, you can be anxious to death.

It's a pity that you can't be a qualified talker with a bare mouth. If you don't have a strong body and deterrence, you will be grabbed by the neck by Jiao Qiao just like now, and you will stab your butt with the shotgun barrel you just shot, and your pants will be exposed. Smoked.

"Zhang Weiping!?" Jiao Qiao and Hu Ran were all at a loss for the name.

"He is one of the commanders of the Xinjiang Rebel Army and is now the 66th member of the council. I heard about him when I was in Xinjiang. He fought bravely with the Redeemer. He was also the same in the White Water City and Kucha counterattacks. The leader... hiss, really, such a ruthless hand!"

In order not to get stabbed in the ass by the hot gun barrel, Zhang Ke had no choice but to finish all the information on this person in one breath, and then he was freed from Jiao Qiao's grasp, and hurried to the side, took off his pants and checked the wound.

"He knows Hong Tao?" Jiao Qiao put down his gun, took out a cigarette and handed one to Hu Ran.

The resettlement of survivors in Xinjiang Province is all handled by the alliance government. I have never inquired about who should be on the council and who can be assigned what position. I don't care much.If you want to know the details of this person, you can only ask Zhang Ke right now.

"I have to ask Minister Zhou about this matter. Her subordinates cooperated with the rebels in Xinjiang Province. I guess not only know each other, but also have a good friendship."

Zhang Ke really didn't know much about Zhang Weiping's personal information. He came to Jiao Qiao not only to report the news, but also wanted to ask Zhou Yuan for some inside information through this channel.

Don't just call her Aunt Zhou when you see her face, the relationship is pretty good, but that female minister is no better than Lin Na, and I really don't have that much face as a junior, and I will send you back with a few words.

"Hmph, just wait and see, surprises will come one after another..." In the office of Zhou Yuan of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the female minister was sitting behind the desk, looking at the phone she had just put down with a sneer, and said to herself.

In less than half an hour, three calls came in, Jiao Qiao, Ran Di and Chu Qiu.The content of the call is the same, to inquire about the relationship between Zhang Weiping and Hong Tao.Some went around in circles and used various reasons to obtain the files of the Xinjiang Provincial Action, and some directly inquired.

But regardless of whether it was good intentions or malicious intentions, one fact was obvious. The already very complicated situation was further exacerbated by Zhang Weiping's sudden appearance.

Now, no matter the reformists, the royalists, or the neutral factions, they must recalculate the previously estimated power balance, because everyone has forgotten a variable parameter, the survivors of Xinjiang Province.

Speaking of it, Zhou Yuan also blamed herself. Even she didn't expect Hong Tao to have such a great influence among the survivors in Xinjiang Province. She just felt that Sun Dacheng's attitude was affected, that's all.

"Bang... bang bang... bang..." Just as Zhou Yuan was about to re-read the case files of Xinjiang Province and carefully searched for clues, there was a gentle knock on the door, very rhythmic.

"Come in!" Don't ask, this is Secretary Sun's method, and there is an important work report.

"...Minister, Sabalin went to the small building, just 5 minutes ago!" Secretary Sun slipped through the crack of the door like a ray of breeze, took half a step forward, stood at attention, looked up, opened the briefcase, and put the The call log of the field staff was recounted verbatim.

"Hahahaha... the centipede is dead but not stiff, I knew he wouldn't be so obedient. This is a good show...you go to the training center right away, just say me...forget it, I'll be with you Go, I'm afraid they won't believe you!"

Harsh laughter suddenly broke out in the room, and Zhou Yuan almost fell off the chair because her body was shaking so much.Now she finally understands Hong Tao's low-key return to the alliance, and the reliance of putting on a look of letting others slaughter him.

When everyone thought that the founder and first chairman of the alliance had nowhere to go, had no choice but to accept the alliance under the city, but everyone forgot to count a force, the survivors of Xinjiang Province!

This force cannot be said to be very strong. After all, it was dismantled and resettled to Chang'an, Beijing, Changchun and Jinmen Port. It is also a newcomer, and it is too busy to take care of itself because it is not familiar with the place. It is reasonable not to be counted.

But people who are very familiar with the composition and customs of Xinjiang Province will certainly not think so.The Redeemer has fought against the Rebels for so many years, and they have an absolute advantage in numbers, weapons, geographical location, and resources, and even have foreign aid, but why can't they be eliminated?

The reason is simple. Some locals, according to the mainland, are born rebellious and stubborn.No matter who the opponent is or how powerful they are, as long as they touch their reverse scales, they will continue to toss endlessly.

At this time, regardless of the suspicion of various factions, the two who pretended not to understand the declaration of the council and went to meet Hong Tao first were the leaders of this group.The reason for the two of them to go is also very good. If Hong Tao hadn't attracted most of the adjudicator's energy back then and weakened the adjudicator's vitality, the two of them might not have persisted today.

It's not just a life-saving grace, the little girl Camila Hong Tao rescued from the Redeemer is the niece of Sabalin, one of the leaders of the rebel army, and the only blood inheritance of their family.

What I have to do now is to pour some oil on the firewood pile to let the small flames burn quickly.Reformists and scumbags can get a majority of support at the government level, but they have a big shortcoming. They have limited influence among refugees, and their reputation is getting worse and worse as time goes by.

If Hong Tao could unite these survivors from Xinjiang Province, and with his reputation in the safe zone and his prestige back then, he would be able to create an extra force that did not belong to any faction out of thin air, and thus from the outside to the outside. Indirectly affect the pattern of high-level.

This trick is simply too clever, and ordinary people will never see it in a short time. Even if I know that man so well, I have only guessed the general direction until now, and I don't know the specific details.

It's too risky. It's easy to be attacked from all sides, and neither the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Logistics, or the Ministry of Internal Affairs can't blatantly protect it. Everything must be done according to the rules.

But think about it the other way around, who can understand and be more familiar with the pros and cons of this set of rules than Hong Tao.According to his usual style, Bao Buqi hid the back door when he designed it.

If we really want to fight at the rule level, the advantages of those in power will be weakened to the maximum extent, and the strength of the migrant class he represents may increase to the maximum extent.However, with Zhou Yuan's mind, she still couldn't figure out the context, it was too complicated, too variable, and too huge.

"Also, call Director Gou immediately to withdraw all the personnel of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the Southeast Alliance and Southwest Alliance, and only keep the most core and most necessary liaison organizations."

Just as she walked out of the office, Zhou Yuan thought of someone again.Gou Chenzhi, like Zhang Ke and Lan Yuer, was educated by Hong Tao from an early age, so he might firmly support his idol like Zhang Ke.

Regardless of whether it will happen or not, anyway, let's call it back first, and one more variable will bring more hope.Now only by messing up the situation can it be possible to fish in troubled waters, and we must not follow the route designed by the council.

Chapter 918 Too Unexpected 2

As for whether the intelligence work of the Southeast Alliance and the Southwest Alliance will be delayed because of this, I am afraid that no one will mention this matter again.After the Battle of Xinyang, the hawks in the army represented by Pan Wenxiang had already been dragged into disgrace, and if Hong Tao returned to stir up trouble, the plan to go south would soon be aborted, and who would care about those insignificant intelligence.

"Pa..." A delicate goblet fell hard on the ground, and it was instantly smashed to pieces. The wine flowing out of the glass was like bright red blood, splashing on the hard granite ground.

"It's only half a day. Are my words so worthless? Call a special executive meeting immediately and kick these two people out of the council!"

As the saying goes, some people are happy and some are worried. Zhou Yuan went to the north of the city with a smile on her face, while Chu Qiu sat at the dining table, looking at the Western food that Gao Tianyi specially prepared for her without appetite.

After all the calculations, the royalists would not reach an agreement so quickly, so they took the lead in expressing their attitude on the council, trying to deter those who were already swinging left and right, making it even more difficult for Zhou Yuan Collect enough strength to challenge yourself.

90.00% of the calculations were accurate. Hong Tao arrived in the safe area in the afternoon. Except for the staff of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, not a single alliance official appeared in front of the small building.In addition to embarrassment, this is also a very obvious signal, which means that times have changed and people have changed. Even if you have any thoughts, it is best to put them away.

As long as it lasts for a few more days, centrists and fencers will immediately turn around, and even some less staunch royalists will remain neutral.At that time, according to the rules, the board of directors will act as the prosecutor, smashing the last halo of that man in court, and the rest is just an old man with a special body.

At that time, it was my turn to appear on the stage as a winner. All I had to do was show a little bit of unbearable, and then arrange a less critical position in the council. Who can say that I was attached to power, and it was all for the alliance not to fall into scum? He had to bear the pain and kill relatives righteously as a last resort, and he showed generosity and affection in both emotion and reason.

As a result, all the detailed procedures previously arranged were scrapped because one percent was not counted.Who is to blame?To be honest, I really don't blame Gao Tianyi for his negligence, let alone those big bosses in the reformist faction.Including myself, if you think about it a little bit, it won't be in vain.

If you dare to make yourself uncomfortable, you cannot forgive!Although the qualifications of directors cannot be deprived at will once they are approved, all the quotas given to survivors in Xinjiang Province have a preparation period, and they are currently in the preparation period.

In other words, their director titles are all temporary now, and they can be deprived immediately as long as they are approved by two-thirds at the executive meeting.

"Slow...Aqiu, you can't do this, and you must not act rashly before you fully understand the whole story of their going to the small building. These people are not like refugees in the mainland, their cultural customs are very different, and so many of them are from Central Asia and the Member of Russia.

According to the agreement between the two parties, the leader they nominated will automatically obtain the qualifications of the director. If we forcibly deprive him of it, once a disturbance arises, the previous efforts will not only become a political achievement but will become a big trouble, and he will be very vulnerable to attacks from the royalists. "

It must be said that Gao Tianyi was relatively calm at the critical moment. In fact, he almost lost his temper.Originally speaking, taking advantage of the joy of winning the first battle, he started to cook a meal for Chu Qiu, which further increased the relationship between the two people.Unexpectedly, after worshiping 99 times, I almost trembled in the end, and it was all ruined.

But the accident ten years ago always reminded him to be calm and calm when encountering problems, any emotional fluctuations would interfere with the judgment of the actual situation.It sounds cool to be happy and enmity, but if you want to firmly control power, you must have no sorrow and no joy. Even if you can't reach that level now, you must have less sorrow and less joy.

"If there is one, there will be ten. If we don't express our opinion, there will be a lot of guests soon. It's not that you don't know his mouth, he can open the eyes of the dead. In case those people with soft ears are fooled again Dizzy, we will be more passive!"

Chu Qiu wasn't all acting on her own will, she was thinking about it from another angle, or she was still a little afraid of that man in her heart.She knew how Hong Tao fooled Yan Qiang and Gao Tianyi back then, God knows if it will happen again, it is very possible.

"It's different. We were all ignorant back then, thinking all day about how to expand the territory, get more supplies, and even fantasized that the zombie disease would suddenly disappear one day.

Now after so many years of baptism, everyone has already had a relatively clear understanding of the future. It is futile to ask anyone to give up the power they have with just a few words.

Others don't mention it, just talk about Jiao Qiao and Lin Na, do you think their behavior seems to be giving up power voluntarily?That was his most trusted right-hand man back then.Look at Randy again, so far he hasn't said a single word.Back then, he had argued with Hong Tao more than once about his ideals, and he was the most radical representative in the league.

Human nature, this is human nature, selfishness, greed, jealousy... His opponents are not only us, but everyone.As long as these problems cannot be solved, he will never be able to win! "

Gao Tianyi refuted Chu Qiu's hypothesis without hesitation.In his view, this is a battle that can never be lost. No matter how tortuous the process is and how complicated the plot is, there is only one final result.The reason is simple, everyone is human!

"...These are all things to come, what should we do now?" Chu Qiu listened carefully, hesitated for a moment, but decided to follow the advice and not take any substantive actions for the time being.But it doesn't mean doing nothing, if you don't win this round, there will be another round.

"I'll go there in person tomorrow to meet him face to face on behalf of you. Some things need to be seen in person to make a decision. I really miss me after not seeing you for so many years. Let's chat and catch up. Let's see what he has to say first!"

Gao Tianyi didn't have a specific solution. He made an interesting and bold suggestion. Since he can't stop it, he should take the lead to have a look.Doing so can not only inquire about the truth in person, but also show the tolerance of the chairman of the alliance to outsiders.Public is public, private is private, and on the premise of public affairs, it does not hinder human nature.

"You really don't hate him?" But Chu Qiu is really not so generous, and he doesn't think others can do it.

"How should I put it, I definitely hated it at the beginning, but after thinking about it many years later, I don't hate it anymore. Think about it, if he hadn't been able to force the three families together at the beginning, I dare not say that they would fight immediately. Sooner or later there would be a fight." A fierce battle.

No matter who is strong and who is weak, bullets are short-sighted in real swordsmanship, and casualties are inevitable. It is hard to say how many people will be left in the end. Even if they win, it will be a miserable victory.

Some people may bow down and stay, and some people will definitely flee to other places. The result is a serious population loss and an astonishing consumption of supplies. Get eaten by stronger groups around you.

From this aspect, he does have a longer-term vision and abilities beyond ordinary people, but it is a pity that he is too idealistic, which may be the weakness of genius.They always do things according to their own ideas, never considering the feelings of others. "

Speaking of Hong Tao, Gao Tianyi had mixed feelings.Let's say hate, it's really getting weaker and weaker, and even in many ways, I have been taught more than lessons.Say you like it, really no, who would like that kind of person, except women and masochists.

Let's talk about agreeing, I really dare not, anyone who agrees with that set of theories is a saint.Let’s say against it, take that set of concepts apart, there are indeed many things worth learning from and learning from.

But there was one thing that Gao Tianyi absolutely recognized but didn't dare to mention. He knew very well in his heart that it was not Hong Tao who really ruined him but the woman in front of him.If he had continued to work for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, even if he had been Zhou Yuan's deputy, it would not have caused the situation today.
