Moreover, the current situation is not a breakout, but a clean-up operation against the forces that rebelled against the Ministry of Health and the forces that colluded with them.
Such an encirclement and suppression operation requires close cooperation among our own units, well-planned deployment by the command headquarters, and a stable and secure rear area. All three are indispensable.
The current matter is to ensure the safety of the command post. The command post must not be attacked at a critical moment during the operation, causing the operation to become passive.
Of course, if the command post does not have 100% security, Yong Shijing will give up coordinating the overall actions at the command post and instead conduct command in a mobile command post based on vehicles.
Although this made it easier to coordinate and deploy specific operations, it also made it more difficult to communicate between various operational departments and the command post. After all, at that time, communication methods were far less developed than they are now.
Yong Ganping did not understand the current communication and agreed action plan between Yong Ming and Yong Shijing, so he could only make an assumption based on the current situation.
He hoped that his idea was right, that he would see Yong Shijing on the second floor, or that he could open the door to the secret passage, go in along the secret passage, and find Yong Shijing who was investigating the situation next door.
Anyway, he didn't want his wish to fail, because he couldn't bear the blow caused by Yong Shijing's accident.
If something goes wrong with Yong Shijing, it will undoubtedly be a huge loss for "Operation Thunder Sword", and the entire operation will undergo major changes, which can be said to be catastrophic.
Yong Ganping didn't dare to think about such a thing. Although he was still calm on the surface, he was actually extremely nervous inside. It could be said that he was uneasy.
After calmly walking out of the room and passing by the opposite room as usual, Yong Ganping took three steps at a time and then two steps up to the second floor.
At this time, the door to the second floor was closed. Yong Gan calmed down and waited for Wu Jun behind him to catch up before he reached out and turned the key inserted in the keyhole of the door to open the door.
The door opened, and Yong Ganping pushed it in. The first thing that caught his eye was the cook who had been detained in the conference room at the field site.
His hands had been untied, and he was reaching out to knead noodles in a porcelain basin on the dining table in the living room. There was a bowl of noodles and a bowl of water next to him. When he saw Yong Ganping coming in, he straightened his body in a hurry, a little scared.
Said: "Hello, captain!"
The team member responsible for guarding him just walked out of the kitchen, holding a blanket in his hand. When he saw Yong Ganping, he stopped and said respectfully: "Captain, you are here. The special envoy is waiting for you in the back room!"
After Yong Ganping saw the two of them, he was really happy beyond words.
After hearing what the team members said, they nodded and walked towards the room on the right. Wu Jun followed them into the room.
In the room, Yong Shijing was sitting on the bed, and Xie Shizhen was sitting on the chair in front of the desk, with a look of shock on his face.
Yong Ganping immediately looked at the closet and saw that the closet door was closed. He said nothing and stood quietly in front of Yong Shijing, waiting for questions.
"Tell me about what happened on your journey."
Yong Shijing said calmly.
Yong Ganping immediately told them how they met the enemy on the road, how they captured the enemy, how they responded, and then how they evacuated.
After Yong Shijing listened, she asked Wu Jun to tell them what happened from the time they set off from the field point to the time they were attacked.
After listening to what the two of them said, Yong Shijing asked: "The attack carried out by the other party was a 'siege' rather than an 'attack'. Can we characterize their actions this way?"
Yong Ganping recalled the exchange of fire just now, nodded and said: "Special envoy, the situation is indeed like this. After my subordinates and others arrived at the scene by car, the opponent's offensive was not fierce, and the people who occasionally rushed up did not get any results.
With the support and cover of his companions, he was quickly wounded or killed."
Wu Jun also replied: "When my subordinates and Brother Zhai escorted the suspect to the place where the attack occurred, they were shot by the opponent. Brother Zhai found a sunken corner nearby where he could hide, so he led his subordinates to escort the suspect quickly.
Hide in it and rely on it to hold on until the captain and others arrive at the scene.
During the exchange of fire between his subordinates and the other party, Brother Zhai felt that the shooting skills of the other party's personnel were inaccurate and the firearms were not very sophisticated.
The weapons they held were mixed with some old firearms made in Hanyang. They sounded quite noisy, but in fact they were not threatening.
Therefore, Brother Zhai didn't often fire back. Unless someone on the other side wanted to rush over, he would shoot, and that was limited to warning shots.
The purpose of this is to delay as much time as possible while waiting for backup to arrive.
At the same time, we can give the opponent the illusion that our subordinates are easier to deal with, making them think they can successfully capture us."
Yong Shijing nodded, "Unexpectedly, the other party has the same thoughts as you, they just want to surround you and hold you back, and they don't want to fight to the death with you.
It seems that the other party has other motives, and the actions you and I just took happened to lift this layer of paper."
As he spoke, he looked at Xie Shizhen who was sitting beside him.
Xie Shizhen nodded immediately and said uneasily: "I didn't expect that they would do this. It's so cruel!"
"What is there that they dare not do now? I'm afraid that what they do next will be even more vicious and heinous."
Yong Shijing commented coldly.
"Qi Baofeng and I are going to meet here. As his acquaintance, you can have a good chat. It's also good to negotiate some things and make things clear.
We must get rid of those who have two minds, and we must make more friends who share the same mind with us.
Do you think so?"
Yong Shijing talked about the arrangements for a while and also reminded Xie Shizhen.
Xie Shizhen took a long breath, calmed down his state of mind that was fluctuating due to shock and fear, and said: "What the special envoy said is that my subordinates will focus on the current matter and there will be no problems."
"Wu Jun, go and give Mr. Xie a glass of water. At the same time, prepare some hot water and some tea. This guest has arrived, and it's not appropriate to have no fragrant tea to entertain him."
Yong Shijing ordered.
"Yes, I'll go get some water right now."
After speaking, Wu Jun turned around and went out.
"Gan Ping, I didn't close the door to the secret passage. I just wanted to wait for you to come and let you continue to explore the other secret passages.
Your task is to open all the secret passages connecting the four houses and to complete the investigation of each house.
I estimate that this is the only secret passage, because it goes from the second floor to the first floor.
The secret passages between other houses should not be so complicated, and should basically exist somewhere on the first floor as an 'invisible door'."
Yong Shijing pointed to the wardrobe and said to Yong Ganping.
