"If, I mean if, we really help General Ma now, first of all, this thing may not really be possible. There is a high probability of failure. Once we fail, we will be in ruins!"
"Secondly, even if we help General Ma accomplish this matter, General Ma may not be able to win the final victory."
"Let's not talk about whether General Ma can completely control and stabilize the Second Army. Even if he does, the Second Army is no match for the First Army."
"There is a gap between the two sides in terms of overall strength, weapons and equipment, especially heavy weapons. Not to mention, the First Army and the Air Force are assisting. So if the two sides really start fighting, I don't think General Ma has a chance of winning."
Chen Xiao nodded and continued.
"We have all followed General Ma for so many years, and we know General Ma's conduct and personality very well."
"As you just said, General Ma clearly knows that the Second Army is no match for the First Army, not to mention the help of the Air Force, so why would he do such a thing?"
"Who has nothing to do and is willing to seek death for fun?"
Chen Xiao's words made the two of them silent. After a moment, Chen Xiao continued.
"From this point of view, I think what General Ma said is true. It was Li Xin who wanted to usurp power and seize the throne and intimidated the city lord!"
"So I want to help General Ma do this. No matter whether it can be done or not, I will do it."
"Of course, if you two are willing to work together, we still have a chance of success. If you two are not willing to wade into muddy waters, I basically have no hope. But I don't blame you. After all, everyone has his own ambitions, and you can't force it.
."
The two middle-level officers opposite fell into silence. After a long time, one of them spoke.
"What if, I mean what if, what if General Ma is fake and the city lord and Li Xin are real?"
"If so, we will be nailed to the pillar of shame forever!"
When Chen Xiao said this, the conversation changed.
"But if General Ma is real and we finally make it, then we will be famous throughout the ages and soar into the sky."
"Whether it is the city lord or General Ma, they will not treat us badly after the matter is completed! They will definitely honor our ancestors!"
The two people opposite fell into silence again. You looked at me and I looked at you.
"In this world, risk and return are always directly proportional!..."

Second Army Headquarters Base.
In the combat conference room.
Ma Wudi was impassioned, after all the arrangements.
He looked serious and raised his hand in salute.
"Everything is for Jincheng!"
“Everything is for Jincheng!!”
Everyone raised their arms and shouted, and almost at the same time, the air defense siren sounded in the headquarters base.
Ma Wudi subconsciously looked out the window and yelled immediately.
"Everyone, be careful! Disperse immediately!"
Zhang Xiangkai, who had always been with Ma Wudi, saw this situation and without saying a word, he immediately rushed to Ma Wudi's side.
He directly hugged Ma Wudi's waist and abdomen with both hands. Without any explanation, he dragged Ma Wudi and rushed to the window.
"Hey Hey hey!"
Ma Wudi roared loudly, but it was too late.
Zhang Xiangkai dragged Ma Wudi, jumped up, and with a "click" sound, he smashed the glass and fell down the third floor.
The moment he fell down, Zhang Xiangkai turned over and placed himself underneath. The two of them hit the roof of an SUV parked below with a loud "桄桔桔~" sound, and then rolled to the ground one after another.
There was a big deep hole in the roof of the SUV.
This moment cost Ma Wudi half his life. He grinned and could not speak before he could speak.
Several fighter jets arrived one after another, and several missiles hit the building accurately.
"Boom~boom~boom~boom~" followed by several explosions.
Ma Wudi's ears were buzzing for an instant. When he was confused, he felt a strong force. Zhang Xiangkai jumped into the car with Ma Wudi in his arms.
The moment the two people jumped into the car, there were several violent explosions in the surrounding area, "boom~boom~boom~boom~".
The entire car was seriously affected, and was blown out for more than ten meters. With a "桄桔~" sound, it hit the edge of another building. While it was severely deformed, both Ma Wudi and Zhang Xiangkai were thrown from the car.
came out.
Zhang Xiangkai was seriously injured and spit out a mouthful of blood.
Ma Wudi was sore all over, lying on the ground rolling back and forth, his expression extremely painful.
Accompanied by a buzzing sound overhead.
"Boom~boom~boom~boom~boom~" Pieces of bombs fell from the sky. The entire building was instantly razed to the ground amid the ferocious bombing, along with countless parked vehicles and guards standing around.
Soldiers on patrol.
Amidst the thick smoke, the fire was burning.
All the anti-aircraft weapons of the Second Army fired wildly overhead and fired back.
However, it had no effect at all. After a crazy bombing attack, all the fighter planes quickly evacuated.
Ma Wudi got up from the ground in disgrace, and his face was cut several times by the debris and stones splashed by the explosion.
Looking at the office building in front of him that had completely collapsed and turned into ruins, he was completely dumbfounded.
All personnel in the office building, except for him and Zhang Xiangkai, were engulfed by the explosion before they had time to escape.
His survival was all due to Zhang Xiangkai's decisiveness at critical moments.
Turning around to look at Zhang Xiangkai sitting on the ground next to him, Ma Wudi hurried forward.
"Brother, are you okay?"
Zhang Xiangkai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, still feeling frightened, and shook his head at Ma Wudi.
"Is there any clean spy in the Second Army?"
"It's almost settled at the officer level, and there won't be any more problems! But there's really no way to deal with the grassroots officers and soldiers! There are too many people, and I have no way to confirm who is of the same mind as Li Xin."
Zhang Xiangkai took a deep breath.
"Then cut off all connections between the Second Army and the outside world, cut off and shield all signal sources, and seize all communication tools!"
Ma Wudi took a deep breath and nodded.
"That's all it can do."
"From now on, don't show up in public. It's too dangerous!"
"I know."
More and more soldiers rushed over from the surrounding area. Ma Wudi looked very anxious and shouted loudly at the opposite side.
"First clean up the ruins and save people! See if there are any survivors! Save people! Hurry!!"
Ma Wudi was extremely anxious. He gritted his teeth and rushed forward, busy with the surrounding soldiers.
After all, everyone in the office building is Ma Wudi's confidant and has a close relationship with Ma Wudi.
This round of bombing by Li Xin and others is almost equivalent to destroying Ma Wudi's lair.
While cleaning up the ruins of the building, Ma Wudi was running around with a few mouths on his face.
He was so ruined that his intestines were green. How could he have such an open and fair meeting? He really ignored the Jincheng Air Force.
He looked at so many soldiers around him and couldn't determine who had leaked the news.
"Hey, hey, hey, how can this be good!..."
Ma Wudi was so angry that he slapped his thigh.

The sun is shining and the air is pleasant.
The main hall of Jin Temple.
The temple master knelt on his knees, chanting sutras and chanting mantras.
The temple owner is quite old, at least sixty years old, with white hair and wearing a monk's robe.
Li Xin walked in.
He knelt beside the master of the Jin Temple, clasped his hands, and seemed extremely pious.
After the ceremony was over, the master of the Jin Temple looked at the other monks in the temple and nodded gently.
All personnel leave.
Only the master of Jin Temple and Li Xin were left in the temple.
"General Li, everyone is out, you don't have to make any pretense anymore."
Li Xin didn't say a word and ended the entire ceremony as usual.
He didn't speak loudly.
"When I do something, I always have a beginning and an end. If I don't do it, I have to do it to the end and do it well."
"General Li is such a good example!"
There is something in the words of the master of Jinmiao Temple.
"I see that from last night to now, all that's left is your unilateral condemnation, and Ma Wudi no longer has any excuse for confrontation. Has he been dealt with by you?"
