Chapter 713 Plan

"What does Director Chen think?"

Chen Chuan's steady and powerful voice came out clearly from the boundary.

"Since we can't seal off the fusion area, we can only conduct a certain degree of cleaning of the people entering the fusion area."

Commissioner Liang was silent for a moment, then said, "Director Chen, what's the specific plan?"

Chen Chuan's response was concise and clear.

"The plan is simple. I will personally enter the intersection and be responsible for clearing out those militants who pose a threat to us."

Commissioner Liang said, "Manager Chen, as the head of the investigation, you are no longer fit to fight on the front lines."

Chen Chuan said, "Commissioner Liang is also aware of the situation in the bureau. Currently, apart from me, there is no one else who can handle this matter."

He looked at Commissioner Liang, "And from what I understand, the Ministry of Defense is also very short on personnel. I'm afraid we won't have enough time to gather such a force."

Commissioner Liang said, "Then, Director Chen, have you considered who will be responsible for the daily operations of the Bureau after you leave?"

Chen Chuan said: "I've considered it, Captain Zou is qualified."

"Old Zou?"

Commissioner Liang nodded. "Although his rank isn't high enough, he's certainly capable of handling daily affairs." He paused. "Director Chen, I personally agree with this, but the stability of the bureau is very important, not only for the Ministry of Defense, but also for the Government Affairs Department. I think you understand what I mean?"

Chen Chuanshuo said, "I understand. However, the key to the matter now lies not in the Bureau of Processing, but in the Interchange. Besides..." He looked at Commissioner Liang, "Isn't Teacher Xue here?"

Commissioner Liang was slightly surprised. "Have you already met?"

Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Yes."

His idea was not a momentary impulse or a result of passion, but was based on considerations of the actual situation.

With a fighter around, the Government Affairs Office can ensure the final bottom line, and with this foundation and premise, he will be able to do those things with confidence.

Commissioner Liang was most worried that Chen Chuan, due to his young age, would be too impulsive and radical in his actions, which would lead to some things not being considered thoroughly. Now that he saw that he had indeed given it all thought, he also had some inclinations in his mind.

He said in a deep voice, "This is a valid strategy, but Director Chen, you must understand that the situation in the Interfusion Land is extremely complex. Strength alone won't be enough to unleash your power. Once you're there, the enemies you face might not just be humans in the conventional sense, but various Interfusion Land creatures, and possibly even certain entities from the other side."

Chen Chuan said: "This will not be more difficult than what Captain Xu has to face."

Commissioner Liang pondered for a moment, then said, "Well, I'll talk to the Government Affairs Office and give you a reply later."

"Then I'll have to trouble Commissioner Liang."

The field screen went dark.

Chen Chuan took the Xuejun Sword, pulled it out of the scabbard, and then slowly wiped it. After a while, the field screen in front lit up again.

He placed the Xuejun Knife, which had not been wiped yet, on the table.

This time, two people appeared on the screen. In addition to Commissioner Liang, there was also a middle-aged man who looked to be in his thirties or forties and had an easy-going appearance.

The man glanced at Chen Chuan, then glanced at the Xuejun Knife on his desk. He smiled and said, "Hello, Director Chen. I'm Qiao Yang, Secretary to Minister Qi. It's our first meeting. Director Chen is indeed young and promising, and he lives up to his reputation."

Chen Chuan nodded in response, "Hello, Secretary Qiao."

After Secretary Qiao greeted him, his expression became a little more serious.

"Manager Chen, I'm here on behalf of the Chief Administrative Officer to inquire about something. The Chief Administrative Officer has learned of the proposal Manager Chen has put forward from Commissioner Liang. So, I'd like to ask, can Manager Chen guarantee that your plan will be carried out?"

Chen Chuanshuo said, "If the Government Affairs Office grants me sufficient authority and allows the Ministry of Defense to coordinate my actions from outside, then without the involvement of any additional excessive forces, I can guarantee that this will be accomplished."

Of course, he had reasons for his confidence. First of all, outside the fusion area, he could obtain supplies from various garrisons without having to make special preparations.

Secondly, he had a data map left by Chen Bitong. This data map showed some places that were not covered by government departments, and he could insert them into some necessary roads through some hidden passages.

Among these were some hiding places that Chen Bitong had previously opened up with his teammates when he was in the pioneering team. As long as they brought enough supplies, they could stay there for a long time.

Finally, he still had Hong Fu's support. Hong Fu's power wasn't just limited to the third level; it was merely restricted by the academy's procedures. After being separated from the main body, this power was clearly weakening. Even now, it could only be sustained by him. He wouldn't use it unless it was a critical moment, but it was undoubtedly his trump card.

Seeing his confidence, Secretary Qiao said, "If Director Chen is confident, we support you, but we also hope that Director Chen can do his best. Director Chen can undoubtedly make greater contributions in the position of the processing bureau."

Chen Chuan said: "I will."

Secretary Qiao nodded and asked, "Manager Chen, what do you need?"

Chen Chuan immediately sent over a document he had prepared. Secretary Qiao glanced at it and said, "Manager Chen, we will do our best to coordinate everything you need." Then he straightened his expression and said, "Manager Chen, I wish you success in your operation."

Chen Chuan said, "Thank you, Secretary Qiao. Please also thank Minister Qi for his support."

Secretary Qiao said, "I'll pass it on."

When the screen here at Chen Chuan's place went dark, Secretary Qiao and Commissioner Liang were still communicating through the field screen.

Secretary Qiao commented, "Manager Chen is very responsible and courageous."

Commissioner Liang said: "Commitment comes from responsibility, and courage comes from strength. On this matter, I trust Director Chen.

This time, after Mr. Xue arrived in Central City, he went to see Manager Chen first before contacting us, which shows that Mr. Xue is very optimistic about Manager Chen.

Secretary Qiao agreed, saying, "With Mr. Xue's support, we are willing to trust Director Chen. Now that the decision has been made, the Government Affairs Office will do its utmost to cooperate with this operation. I hope there will be a good result."

Commissioner Liang said, "I believe Director Chen can do it. This is the confidence he has given me based on his past achievements."

On Chen Chuan's side, after he finished talking with the two people, he looked at the notes below the confession. This was something that did not involve specific circumstances, but must be taken seriously.

For example, the whereabouts of Director Wen’s body.

Director Han explained that he hadn't taken care of the case at the time, instead handing it over to a renowned combatant from the Linax Federation, known as the "Skinner." His title suggested the situation might be dire. Regardless, if he ventured deeper into the fusion zone this time, he would definitely try to recover Director Wen's remains.

Below the notes are some armed personnel who entered the fusion area that Director Han knew clearly, as well as his understanding of these people. After reading them, he extracted some information from the processing bureau to have as much knowledge as possible. Even though he believes that he is strong enough, he will not underestimate anyone.

After reading these, he began to make a series of preparations for leaving the processing bureau. With Andun making arrangements and adjustments for each personnel here, there wouldn't be too many problems.

In view of the fact that a lot of manpower had been lost during this stage, he urgently approved a number of reserve personnel who were still in training to join the processing bureau, and transferred several people with good performance from the city security to join the processing bureau to fill the personnel shortage.

At the same time, he called Zou Jinxing in for a private talk and explained the next tasks. He also called in the supervisors and action team leaders of several major regions to meet with his subordinates to stabilize the morale of the people.

By the time he finished all these, it was already late at night. He saw that the Ministry of Defense had already sent him the latest map information of the Interchange Area, so he clicked on it to take a look. It marked the current situation of the Interchange Area, including various garrison fortresses and some hidden military locations.

There is more geographical information deep in the fusion area, which he can also find in the processing bureau. Generally speaking, it is actually very close to the information provided by Chen Bitong.

The current pioneering teams and government explorers aren't ineffective, but some areas and roads remain unmarked. This could also be a matter of skill. The paths Chen Bitong and his teammates explored back then might not be accessible to today's pioneers, a fact that requires both skill and experience.

As expected, the consortium received some map information revealed by Director Han, and this may also include map information provided by various companies.

The advantage of this generation is not as low as imagined. Although the personnel of the Union and the Linax Federation cannot obtain supplies from the garrison fortress, there are gathering places and cities established by various companies in the Fusion Area, where they can stay and obtain certain manpower support from there.

This needs to be taken into consideration when dealing with this kind of people.

He spent the whole night in the bureau, and it was not until the next morning that he managed to get everything sorted out. After eating a few nutritional pastes, he meditated for a while in the practice room. Around noon, the interface showed that Chang Dong was trying to contact him.

He answered, "Mr. Chang?"

Chang Dong's voice came out, "Manager Chen, headquarters has replied," and then he lowered his voice, "Also, headquarters specially sent Mr. Zhuan here this time. Well, don't worry, Mr. Zhuan is coming by train this time. If it's convenient for Manager Chen, why don't we go pick him up together?"

Chen Chuan nodded and asked, "Which station is it?"

"Longhu Station, in the southern industrial area outside the city. I'll send you the location."

Chen Chuan heard a sound from the boundary, revealing the location. He took a look and said, "Okay, I'll pick you up first."

After ending the call, he explained some things to the main responsible persons in the processing bureau, and then drove out alone. He first went to Weiguang District to pick up Chang Dong and Gao Yanjun, and then drove all the way out of the central city area and drove to the station in the southern industrial zone according to the instructions on the boundary pass.
