Sure enough, just as Xu Jianguo expected, as the old man finished speaking, everyone in the room frowned at the same time, as if they were troubled by something.
Especially Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang, one of them pursed his lips with a hint of worry in his eyes, while the other shook his head slightly and tapped the table lightly with his fingers. It was obvious that they both knew what had happened.
After observing the state of several people, Xu Jianguo guessed that Jingzhou's incident was caused by him, but he was not sure, so he asked: "Grandpa Su, what happened in Jingzhou?"
"Do you know Lin Yurong?" Su Dingshan asked.
When Xu Jianguo heard this, he thought to himself that it was indeed so, so he nodded and said, "Of course I know!"
"This whole thing started because of him!"
"How do you say that?"
"Three days ago in the morning, Yan Nanshan, commander of the Hangzhou base, received a phone call. The person on the phone said that something happened there and they requested that troops be sent over immediately. At first, Yan Nanshan thought it was a prank, so he didn't take it seriously. He just scolded her a few times and was about to hang up the phone. However, when he heard the woman on the phone say that she was Lin Yurong's eldest daughter, he immediately became alert. After he asked about the whole story, he knew that this was a big deal, so he personally led hundreds of soldiers from the guard battalion to the scene immediately." Su Dingshan said.
"What happened?" Although Xu Jianguo already knew what had happened, he still asked.
"The incident occurred in a place called Nanyi Village outside of Hangzhou City. When Yan Nanshan arrived, he found the entire village quiet. He sent a few people into the village to inquire about the situation, but unexpectedly, they discovered bodies. All of them had died from close-range pistol gunshots, a single shot! There wasn't a single person left alive in the entire village!"
"So cruel?" Xu Jianguo asked in a surprised look.
"Well, but later Yan Nanshan discovered that the dead people didn't seem to be ordinary people, because the soldiers of the guard camp found weapons such as pistols and daggers on many bodies."
"What about General Lin and his daughter?"
"Yan Nanshan didn't find their bodies in the village. Finally, a squad of guards discovered a cave halfway up the mountain. After entering, they discovered a hidden world inside..."
When Su Dingshan finished speaking, the whole room fell silent. After a while, he looked at Xu Jianguo and asked, "Jianguo, what do you think about this matter?"
When Xu Jianguo heard Su Dingshan ask him, he was immediately shocked, but he still said calmly: "Grandpa Su, I have a few questions!"
"Oh? Tell me about it?" Su Dingshan's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he asked.
"According to what you said, the people in Nanyi Village and the people in the cave are wearing the same clothes and using the same weapons. Does that mean they are actually the same group, all under the command of General Lin?"
"That's right, it's just as we thought!"
"Are these people military personnel?"
"No!"
"Private army?"
When Xu Jianguo said this, Ma Guoliang beside him coughed a few times, signaling him to stop talking nonsense.
"It's okay. The incident has already happened and we can't hide it. Judging from the situation at the scene, it is indeed a private army." Su Dingshan glanced at Ma Guoliang and spoke.
"First question, what is General Lin's purpose in forming these private armies?"
"My second question is, based on what you just said, there was no one alive at the scene except General Lin and his family. Why is that?"
"The third question is, what kind of firearm did the person who did it use?"
Su Dingshan listened carefully to Xu Jianguo's words. After he finished speaking, he said, "The three points you raised have already been raised by others."
"Are there any results?"
"No!" Su Dingshan shook his head and said.
Xu Jianguo thought for a moment and continued, "What did you mean by something happened in Jingzhou?"
"General Lin is an outstanding comrade of the organization and the country. He has made great achievements on the battlefield. Many people in the army were once his subordinates. So after he got into trouble, more than 20 bases, including Jingzhou Base, Hangzhou Base, Jibei Base and Liaoxi Base, jointly wrote to the central government, asking the central government to thoroughly investigate the matter. If the central government cannot find the murderer as soon as possible, then they will take action on their own." Su Dingshan said, but when he said this, Xu Jianguo could clearly feel the anger in his heart.
As we all know, Su Dingshan was the head of the military before he retired. Having been a soldier all his life, what he hated most were soldiers who acted on their own, disobeyed orders and disobeyed commands.
And now the commanders of these more than 20 bases are obviously putting pressure on the center. As the former top leader of the military, how could he not be angry?
At this time, Wu Tianlong on the side also snorted coldly and said, "Damn it! Who gave them the courage to put pressure on the two gentlemen? In my opinion, they should just take them down and get rid of them once and for all. These bastards are only thinking about revenge. Why don't they think about what's going on with those hundreds of private armies? If they continue to make a fuss like this, the central government will be unable to cover up the matter even if they want to. If the news of Lin Yurong forming a private army is really exposed, it will not benefit anyone!"
Ma Guoliang and Dong Jixiang nodded silently, both agreeing with Wu Tianlong's words.
Su Dingshan didn't say anything, but picked up the cigarettes on the table, lit one for himself, and then distributed cigarettes to everyone else.
Xu Jianguo took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "Grandpa Su, what do the two gentlemen mean now? They don't want you to go back and take charge of the situation, do they?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Dingshan looked up at Xu Jianguo, looked at him with surprise and asked, "Do you think the Central Committee will let me go back?"
"I don't know. Can you tell me how you knew about this?" Xu Jianguo asked.
"It was your Grandpa Zhou who called me!"
"oh!"
"Pa!" Su Dingshan saw that Xu Jianguo didn't want to continue, so he slapped him on the head and scolded him with a smile: "What the hell are you saying? Hurry up and tell me!"
