Chapter 639: The Great Tang Dynasty: The husband has his own reasons and the wife has her own reasons
Army commander Tang Zhen received the buns and ate them in two bites. Base commander Chu Bei took them and said thank you, but left them on the table without eating.
"Old Chu, how can you have the energy to continue arguing if you don't eat?" Tang Zhen raised an eyebrow at him.
Chu Bei glanced at him and found his long, thick, black eyebrows very annoying. "Even if I don't eat for three days, I can't agree to let Mou Ci be the general manager. What do you think? I really want to knock your head open to see."
Before the end of the world, Chu Bei was a vice-state level official, higher in rank than Tang Zhen, but not his direct superior.
"Oh, that's what you said. He can't do this or that. So the only position left is the highest commander of the mobile team."
"You..." Chu Bei suppressed his anger, "He was the deputy platoon leader who had been removed from the list. No, he was a temporary appointment. In the final analysis, he was just a squad leader. You...are you trying to make me angry on purpose?"
"He used to be a soldier king." Tang Zhen was not angry at these two sarcastic remarks. He looked at Chu Bei's steamed buns and was still not satisfied. He simply stood up and bent over to pull his buns over. "If you don't want to eat it, I will."
Chu Bei, "..."
"I have more." Chief of Staff Jiang next to him hurriedly handed over his.
Minister Han had just finished eating the last one and saw what Lao Jiang did, and he silently memorized it in his heart. His wife told him to learn more from Lao Jiang in the future and not just make battle plans all day long. This old man is really good at handling things.
"belch--"
Han Dagu quickly covered his mouth. He was eating in a hurry, but he was also really hungry.
The deputy base commanders on the opposite side didn't eat it, but they didn't want to give way to the hot-tempered group on the opposite side, so they all moved closer to themselves.
Today, the reason why they quarreled until so late was not just because of Mou Ci.
It's so embarrassing that Boss Yao's grandson was kidnapped.
The military was responsible for checking each checkpoint, and the Public Security Bureau was responsible for the security of the entire base. No one on either side had noticed this, which was already a big problem. Instead of trying to rescue them, they tried their best to shirk their responsibilities.
But this is not the most infuriating thing. The last straw that broke the camel's back was the mobile team.
The Mobile Team was established at the beginning of the year despite all difficulties. One of the people who strongly opposed it was Tang Zhen. He believed that the Mobile Team was not as good as his Flying Tigers, and that the establishment of a new department would mean paying an extra salary, so it would be better to give him this benefit.
Chu Bei naturally could not agree. He wanted to build up his own power, which was the first step. So he insisted on establishing it against all odds, but he also required the mobile team to produce results within a year.
When it was first established, it did fight a few good battles, eradicating the evil cult organizations and hidden bullies in the inner city base, and the people applauded.
But… half a year later, two major mistakes occurred. The Blue Gold Society, the largest evil cult in China, instigated people to riot in the inner city, resulting in the death of more than 100 people and direct economic losses of millions of points.
In order to eliminate negative influences and consolidate the image of the mobile team and the base in the hearts of the people, they did not mention to the outside world that the riots were related to cults, but they were privately conducting a large-scale search for the remnants of the Blue and Gold Society.
It would have been fine if I hadn't checked, but after checking it made me so angry that I vomited blood.
Members of the Blue and Gold Society have infiltrated all levels of the base, even the top leaders, and have leaked countless secrets. They also organized a large-scale poisoning of the water, which although unsuccessful, had a very bad impact.
The people of the prosperous Tang Dynasty had been oppressed by cults for too long. Every family had relatives who died at the hands of the cult, and they hated them to the core.
Chu Bei had no choice but to seek help from Tang Zhen. Tang Zhen was also very responsible in dealing with major issues, and immediately sent elite troops to cooperate with Chu Bei's actions, but they were all carried out in private, and the name of the Blue Gold Society was never mentioned to the outside world.
As a result, something unexpected happened again during the process of eliminating the remnants of the evil, and Boss Yao's grandson was kidnapped.
Although the kidnappers were said to have been kidnapped on the road, they were actually taken out of the inner city in broad daylight. From the limited surveillance video, the kidnappers encountered at least seven plainclothes mobile teams and several security patrols along the way, but none of them noticed anything wrong.
The most annoying thing is that there was an old lady nearby who was wondering if the child had a heat stroke and whether he should go to the hospital. The kidnapper said the child was asleep and then swaggered away with the child on his back.
After this incident, the Public Security Bureau did not dare to offend Boss Yao and tried to shift the blame to Tang Zhen, making the excuse that the checkpoint inspection was lax.
Tang Zhen couldn't tolerate them, so he immediately sent someone to check the surveillance video. The video clearly showed that the mobile team was not doing anything. But at that time, the most urgent task was to destroy the Blue Gold Society and find the child, so Chu Bei put the overall situation first and suppressed the conflict.
As a result, someone brought up this matter again during the meeting just now, and Tang Zhen said that if Mou Ci was allowed to manage the mobile team, no embarrassing incidents would ever happen.
Sun Boyi, the former director of the Public Security Department and current deputy base commander in charge of public security, became angry and brought up the old matter again.
He slammed the table and said that the military was in charge of all the checkpoints in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and that the military was to blame for the kidnapping of Yao Lao Da's grandson. Moreover, Mou Ci failed to complete the task and caused heavy casualties, so it was good enough that he was not sentenced to prison. He also wanted to be the general manager, which was wishful thinking.
Tang Zhen was a man of bad temper, and he directly retorted, "You approved the pass, and the child was taken away under your noses. There is no way you can shirk responsibility." Besides, the rescue route for Mou Ci was also provided by the base, and he always suspected that someone wanted to harm Mou Ci. Of course, they also had problems internally, but it didn't affect his temper.
He pointed at Sun Boyi and scolded him for 20 minutes, first scolding the mobile team for being incompetent, then for forcing the rescue mission on them, providing wrong information, not sending rescue people, hastily sending obituaries, and scolding Mou Ci for not giving him a residence permit after he returned, and the record in the file was still that he was dead, and he also set up an investigation team to investigate Mou Ci. He didn't stop until Sun Boyi lost his temper.
As for letting Mou Ci be the general manager, he said it on purpose to irritate them. He didn't expect that this group of politicians would actually throw dirty water on Mou Ci. He absolutely couldn't tolerate it.
Tang Zhen ate all four buns, stretched his muscles, and said, "You said Mou Ci was not good enough, but when he came back, he took down three bases of the Blue Gold Society, and found the real cannibal village based on the information provided by Butler Yao. Otherwise, you wouldn't even be able to find that shoe."
The First Mobile Team just found a child's shoe from the cannibal village in the mountains this afternoon. Cui Liang was also scolded. They stayed in the cannibal village (the village outside) for one night and did not find anything unusual in the village.
They were standing downstairs as punishment because of the cannibal village. Other military personnel came here on their own initiative because they were afraid that their old leader would be bullied.
"Old Tang, have you ever thought about why this happened?" Chu Bei was tired of arguing, and arguing like this would not solve the problem at all.
Tang Zhen raised his eyelids and looked at him, "What do you mean?"
"Old Tang, you know how to speak up for your own people and fight for their interests, but have you ever thought that the entire base is also your people, and they are no different from your own soldiers.
You say we are incompetent, that we only know how to compete with you and think about getting promoted and making money. But aren't you the same? You are always on guard against us setting up the Air Force Ministry, hiding supplies, and colluding with others.
You still want to be superior to us in every aspect. Ask yourself, are you really putting the people first? Do you have no selfish motives?"
Tang Zhen squinted at him and said nothing.
"Old Tang, let's not quarrel today. My old bones can't bear it any more.
You said we have known each other for twenty years, don't you know who I am?"
Tang Zhen still didn't say anything. Chu Bei did have a good reputation in the past, and he did a lot of practical things for the people, but there is no truly selfless person in this world. It all depends on how much selfishness there is.
