A few hours ago, Tan Hengqiang went to inspect the troops in person, then changed into casual clothes and returned to his villa.
After entering the house, Tan Hengqiang saw that the living room was full of his relatives. There were men and women, old and young, totaling about twenty people.
"uncle!"
"uncle!"
"you are back!"
After seeing Tan Hengqiang, these people stood up to say hello.
The doll was among them, but she was too preoccupied to say anything.
"Well..." Tan Hengqiang nodded at these people, then scanned the crowd, and finally his eyes fell on his wife, and asked: "Where is tomorrow morning?"
At this time, Mrs. Tan was busy packing her things. When she heard the question, she turned around and said, "I have already called Ming Chao. He will be back soon."
Tan Hengqiang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you go about your business first. I'm going upstairs. I'll be back tomorrow. Let him come up and see me."
After finishing speaking, Tan Hengqiang walked upstairs.
…
More than ten minutes later, a military vehicle parked outside the villa gate.
Tan Mingchao, wearing a straight military uniform, stepped out of the car and hurried into the house. Everyone in the house greeted him one after another.
Seeing so many relatives at home, Tan Mingchao was a little strange and couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong with you guys? Are they all here together today?"
Mrs. Tan gently pulled him and said in a low voice: "Your father called before and asked me to call everyone here. Okay, you don't have anything to do here. Come up quickly. He is waiting for you in the study.
Woolen cloth."
"good."
Tan Mingchao nodded to everyone in the room, then walked upstairs to the study.
The study door was not tightly closed, so Tan Mingchao stretched out his hand and knocked lightly on the door, then pushed the door open and entered.
Inside the house, Tan Hengqiang was sitting on the sofa, looking at a family photo hanging on the wall. At this moment, Lao Tan's figure was slightly stooped, and he actually looked a little old.
Tan Mingchao was a little surprised, because in his memory, his father had never shown such a side.
"You're back." Tan Hengqiang turned his head and waved to him: "Come and sit down, let's talk."
"Dad, what's wrong with you?" Tan Mingchao asked as he walked over and sat in front of Tan Hengqiang.
Tan Hengqiang paused and said to his son solemnly: "In the evening, my guards will escort the family away. You ask the baby to leave with them."
Tan Mingchao was a little dazed and couldn't help but ask: "Are you going with the family members of senior officials?"
Tan Hengqiang sighed: "No, let them go by themselves."
Tan Mingchao frowned, and he instantly understood what his father meant. In the defense battle of Dragon City, Tan Hengqiang did not have absolute confidence, and was even a little pessimistic. This could be seen from his eagerness to send his family away.
come out.
Tan Hengqiang lowered his head, took the teapot, and poured a cup of tea for the two men. At the same time, he said softly: "In the Ming Dynasty... the war has begun. I will go to the front line to lead the army in person. However, you stay in the city and are mainly responsible for
Logistics support work for all troops. If I can't hold on anymore and Dragon City's defense completely collapses, then take your people and leave here."
When Tan Mingchao heard this, he froze on the spot and looked at his father blankly.
Tan Hengqiang put a cup of tea in front of him and continued: "Ming Dynasty, you are my son... If you leave now, we won't have to fight, and it will collapse. But if you are transferred to the front line, I will do it again
No. In my opinion, this war will definitely be victorious in the long term, but in the short term, the result is still unclear. You stay here and sit in charge, and I will step in, so that each of us can have his own way out.
"
"Snapped!"
When Tan Mingchao heard this, he stood up without hesitation and said, "Dad, I don't want to stay in the rear. I want to go to the front line with you to command!"
Tan Hengqiang glanced at him and was not too surprised by his son's reaction. He took a sip of tea and said slowly: "Ming Dynasty, do you know why those people outside call you the Crown Prince?"
Tan Mingchao was stunned, wondering what his father's intention was in asking this question.
Tan Hengqiang put down the teacup and continued: "Because whether in my eyes or in the eyes of others, you don't have the ability to stand alone."
When Tan Mingchao heard these words, he frowned and couldn't help but said: "Dad, I see it differently than you do! I think this battle in Dragon City is not only about the safety of you and my family, but also about the safety of our family.
Those who resisted with you, and the safety of their families! Moreover, if the war is really defeated and you... stay on the front line, then where can we go? The world is so big, there is no hiding place for us
?”
"Hua District is your hiding place." Tan Hengqiang pointed at him and said softly: "You must do what I say! In this battle, you and I can't both be in the front! This matter is non-negotiable! From now on
From now on, be prepared, I will give you orders later!"
After saying that, Tan Hengqiang stood up, opened the door and walked out.
"dad!!"
Tan Mingchao called him twice, but Tan Hengqiang ignored him and walked away firmly.
"Boom!"
Tan Mingchao stood in the study and punched the table.
…
At the same time, China District, Nanhu City.
In a foreign affairs hotel, Su Tianyu was sitting on the sofa in his suite, looking a little anxious. He had been waiting here for a day, but the funerals of the two old generals were still in progress. At present, Qin Yu really had no
Take the time to see him.
Fortunately, during this period of time, he had roughly finalized the alliance's cooperation terms with relevant personnel in China. In the end, he only needed to meet Qin Yu to finalize the matter.
After a while, the door to the room was knocked open, and Jiang Zhou stepped in.
After the two briefly exchanged greetings, Jiangzhou bent down and sat down, handed a piece of information to Su Tianyu, and said softly: "Xiaoyu, before you leave, you need to cooperate with me in a play..."
Su Tianyu looked down at the information, thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then tomorrow night?"
Jiangzhou nodded and said again: "Master, I'll see you tomorrow morning. I'll make arrangements in the evening."
"good!"
The two discussed in low voices.
…
Dragon City, the overall situation.
In the deputy director's office, Gu Baishun was standing in front of the window, thinking deeply about something.
"Dip Lingling!"
At this moment, the phone rang. Gu Baishun took out a brand new mobile phone and answered the call: "Hello? What's going on?"
The scalper's voice came over the phone: "Tomorrow night, a two-front general attack. As far as I know, there will be a separate group of infiltration troops entering the interior of Dragon City to behead our senior officials. We must make corresponding deployments as soon as possible.
"
Gu Baishun nodded and chatted with the other party in a low voice.
…
At night, Xinlai area.
The agreed 80 million arms were delivered to Mordeamon on time.
Shortly after arriving, his chief of general staff received a call: "Hello, respected General Parlu."
On the phone, General Palu said with a smile: "I heard that you have become rich recently?"
The chief of general staff paused and immediately asked: "Why are you getting rich?"
"I heard that Chief Santos, in order to stabilize the internal situation, gave General Mordeamon a total of 80 million arms...!"
"This is a rumor!" the chief of staff said without hesitation: "We have not received any benefits...!"
