Chapter 320: The warrant of the committee

On the way to the train station.

Li Boqi has been very quiet. This makes Zhang Yong feel uneasy.

Is this Xuan Tiewu here specifically looking for trouble? He actually makes Li Boqi so nervous.

In the past, Li Boqi had a deadpan expression all day long. However, he was still in control of the situation. Today, however, he seemed a little anxious.

'Team leader, I'm not afraid.'

'What are you not afraid of?'

'If Commander Xuan wants to cause trouble for me, just let him come.'

'Trouble for you?'

'Yes. If...'

'You're thinking too much. He's looking for trouble for the Director.'

'Huh?'

Zhang Yong was stunned.

Trouble for the Director? What's going on?

Isn't Xuan Tiewu a member of the Fuxing Society? Why would he want to cause trouble for the Director?

Is he trying to replace the Director?

He tried to remember relevant information. It seemed that none of the spy dramas mentioned this.

Boss Dai's position was still secure. Even in the later stages. Until he died in a plane crash. No one replaced him. His power was greatly reduced. But the Military Union was still Boss Dai's Military Union!

'The Fuxing Society is very complicated. You don't know much about the higher echelons,' Li Boqi said with a gloomy face.

'So, what do you say now?' Zhang Yong asked with an open mind.

'Alas, from the time the Blue Shirt Society was founded, there have been disputes between them,' Li Boqi said helplessly, "the Director's qualifications are too light...'

'Who are some of the people?" Zhang Yong was curious, 'who can threaten the Director?'

'He Zhonghan, Deng Wenyi, Zheng Jiemin, Tang Zong, Kang Ze...many, many others.' Li Boqi's face was gloomy.

It seemed that he was remembering some dark past events.

After a pause, he began to introduce them one by one.

'He Zhonghan, the first Huangpu class. One of the three Huangpu heroes.'

'Deng Wenyi, the first Huangpu class.'

'Kang Ze, the third Huangpu class.'

'Xuan Tiewu, also from the first Huangpu class. He was also the head of the Commander-in-Chief's bodyguards. You could say he was the favourite of the Commander-in-Chief.'

'Sigh...'

Li Boqi let out a long sigh.

Zhang Yong nodded. He understood.

They were all big shots!

If you mentioned any of these names, they would all be written about in history books.

Especially those from the first Huangpu class. They were truly the Emperor's disciples.

Just one of them, if mentioned, can make the Chief feel immense pressure. Without sufficient skills in fighting, it is indeed difficult for the Chief, a junior member of the sixth phase,

seniority

is very important. And also very deadly.

Especially on Chinese soil. Seniority and hierarchy are hard to get around.

Unfortunately...

The Chief is from the sixth phase of Whampoa. The sixth phase. The sixth phase...

There is a huge difference in between.

'Strange, why can't I see them in the Special Services Department?'

'They're not in the Secret Service.'

'Where are they?'

'The Fuxing Society.'

'That...'

'The Secret Service is only a part of the Fuxing Society. The Fuxing Society has other organisational structures.'

'Oh...'

Li Boqi began to explain simply.

The structure of the Fuxing Society was actually very fragmented. It had been like this since the beginning.

The reason for the Fuxing Society's establishment was to gain power. However, the people involved did not all share the same views. As a result, they did not all have the same amount of power.

The Director-General controlled the core of the Restoration Society, the Secret Service Division. It was fully armed.

Outside the Secret Service Division, there were other components of the Restoration Society.

For example, Xuan Tiewu also held the title of Director of the Central Executive Committee of the Restoration Society.

Was this title very important?

It had the word 'central' in it. Think about it for yourself.

However, on the Guo party side, everything else was empty talk. Only the armed forces were real.

Therefore, Chu Zu firmly controls the secret service and the only organised armed forces of the Restoration Society. That is why he is unassailable.

This is also one of the fundamental reasons why Chu Zu later went crazy expanding the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army.

Other people were also constantly expanding their armed forces.

If you don't expand your own, you will soon be overshadowed.

It seems that Xuan Tiegu went directly to the army after the outbreak of the full-scale war of resistance.

Direct control of the army is a great threat to Chu Zu.

Now, Xuan Tiewu also has an army at his disposal. Therefore, he is one of the biggest threats to the Director.

'Xuan Tiewu now holds many titles...'

'Director of the Zhejiang Provincial Security Bureau...'

'Commander of the Hangzhou City Garrison...'

'At the same time, in the Office of the Assistant, he also still holds the title of Assistant, and can meet with the Director at any time...'

Li Boqi's face turned gloomy.

For the Director, this last threat is the greatest.

Being able to see the Commissioner at any time meant that he could complain at any time. It also meant that the Commissioner trusted him.

In this way, the Director had a constraint.

In the Fuxing Society, it was difficult for the Director to cover up everything and hide it from the Commissioner.

Together with Zheng Jiemin, Tang Zong, Deng Wenyi, He Zhonghan and others, the Director was really the smallest of the small!

Even Kang Ze was more senior than him. Kang Ze was from the third Huangpu class.

'We'll fight back as best we can. We'll deal with it as it comes. We're not afraid of him!' Zhang Yong was more at ease.

He had no choice.

During this period, he had to stick to the seat of power.

No matter how others attacked the seat of power, he had to cling to it and rise and fall together.

What?

Stepping on two boats? Playing both sides against the middle?

Sorry. He didn't have the ability to do that. The result of being two-faced was definitely being abandoned by both sides.

'You should keep your mouth shut for a while.'

'Team leader, don't worry, I won't cause any trouble.'

'Be careful.'

'Understood.'

And once again, there was silence.

Soon afterwards, the convoy arrived at Zhabei Railway Station.

A few scattered red dots appeared at the edge of the map. Zhang Yong didn't react. He ignored them.

Today's mission was to pick someone up. Not to arrest a spy.

The area around the railway station was already under martial law.

They weren't from the Security Command. They weren't the police. They weren't the Fuxing Society.

It was Xuan Tiewu's own men.

Xuan Tiewu had brought a lot of people. The whole train station was cordoned off.

They were all heavily armed soldiers.

'Lao Li!' Koxingde appeared quietly, "I feel like something's wrong.'

'You should be fine!" Li Boqi said with a calm expression.

'Same here,' Koxingde replied in a deep voice.

Zhang Yong, who was at the back of the station, actually understood. Koxingde was Tang Zong's man.

This Xuan Tiewu's aggressive arrival seemed to be aimed at the Director. But who could tell for sure? What if he was aiming at the Tang Zong faction?

Xuan Tiewu and the Director didn't get along. That was a fact. But he and Tang Zong didn't get along either!

None of the bigwigs within the Fuxing Society got along with each other.

Standing in the God's perspective of a time traveller, Zhang Yong deduced that it was probably someone from the Jiang family who did it on purpose.

After all, it is a secret service agency. It is not safe to have one person in control. There must be more than one person. These people must not stick together. They must be divided and ruled.

The Commissioner-in-Chief is the best at power conspiracies, and naturally the Restoration Society is no exception.

Perhaps promoting the Director to become the head of the secret service agency was also to better control the Restoration Society.

After all, the Director, with his shallow experience, can only hold onto his position if he relies closely on the Commissioner-in-Chief. Without the Commissioner-in-Chief's trust, he will immediately fall from power.

And by using Boss Dai as the director, he can also contain the others. A delicate balance has been achieved.

More or less. That's all Zhang Yong can think of. He can't analyse the other reasons.

In short, everyone is being manipulated by the Commissioner.

'What's going on?'

'Commander Xuan is amazing. He brought 500 people with him.'

'Is this considered a private redeployment of troops?'

'It's said to be authorised by the Commissioner. There's a warrant from the Commissioner.'

'Warrant...'

The three of them fell silent.

What is the most famous thing about the Commander-in-Chief? Warrants!

If you look up the history books, the Commander-in-Chief's warrants are everywhere. They strike fear into the hearts of people.

Strictly speaking, a warrant is equivalent to the personal wishes of the Commander-in-Chief. It is not something that is discussed with other people. It is purely a matter of personal will.

Some people think it is a good thing.

Some people think it is a bad thing.

But Du Yuming definitely thinks it is a bad thing.

If it weren't for the warrant dropped by the old man, he wouldn't have to go into Gongde Lin.

Unexpectedly, this is now playing out.

The Chief of Staff actually gave the warrant to Xuan Tiegu. Does the Chief of Department know?

If he does, it's fine.

If he doesn't, it's really dangerous.

With the Chief of Staff's warrant, you can do whatever you want. You're completely above everyone else.

No wonder Kou Xingde is so nervous.

With just the few of them, the team leader of the Special Affairs Department, in the face of the Chief of Staff's warrant, they're not even worth mentioning!

It's dangerous.

Li Boqi's gloom is understandable.

Even if the Director General doesn't know the content of the warrant, he is probably sitting on pins and needles, waiting for the day to be over.

'I heard...'

'Sixth Brother, don't keep us in suspense. Speak.'

'Someone has suggested to the Director General that the Party Affairs Investigation Department and our Society for the Restoration of China be unified to form the Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the National Government Military Commission. The Party Affairs Investigation Department would be reorganized into the First Department, our Society for the Restoration of China would be reorganized into the Second Department, and the Third Department...'

'Wasn't it rejected before? Now someone is proposing it again?'

'Yes.'

'What does Commander Xuan have to do with it?'

'Commander Xuan probably wants to be the director of the Third Division. On an equal footing with the Director.'

'He...'

Li Boqi fell silent.

Zhang Yong, however, frowned. Isn't the Third Division Ding Mochuan?

Ding went to Nanjing before, and he must have been looking for someone to do something for him. That guy is secretive and mysterious, and most likely also seeking to rise up the ranks.

But Xuan Tiewu actually wants to be the director of this Third Section?

It seems that unchecked power really makes people obsessed!

Director of the Zhejiang Provincial Security Bureau...

Commander of the Garrison...

There is at least some restraint on what you can do.

Only the Special Services Division can do whatever they want without any restraint.

It's normal for Xuan Tiewu to be jealous.

If he could set up a third division in addition to the first two, and even get his own armed forces...

'This is a sensitive matter. Don't mention it again.'

'Sigh...'

Kou Xingde shook his head. He was also apprehensive.

If Xuan Tiewu really set up a third division, they would have more rivals in the Secret Service.

Right now, in the battle with the Party Affairs Investigation Division, the Secret Service can basically gain the upper hand. Because the Party Affairs Investigation Division does not have the military. It has no military background.

But Xuan Tiegu has!

Creating a third division with a military background is targeting the Secret Service!

It's over...

But there's nothing they can do.

In this kind of big-shot level battle, they can only watch.

They can't even resist if they want to kill or chop someone.

No, they can't. When they reported their identities and explained their intentions, no one paid any attention.

'Commander Xuan is talking with Vice Commander Yang. Please wait a moment,' a major military officer came out and told them.

The tone was gentle. The reason was clear. The attitude was friendly.

But the meaning was...

You wait. Commander Xuan is not available to see you at the moment.

In other words, they were being kept waiting.

But was there anything Zhang Yong and the others could do? No. They had to wait obediently.

The higher the rank, the more authority. And this was a big difference in rank.

Even if Mao Renfeng had come, they would still have to wait obediently. The other section chiefs were doing the same.

Thirty minutes...

An hour...

Two hours...

Zhang Yong gradually became irritated.

Damn it, we've been waiting for two hours! What's there to talk about?

What the hell is there to talk about for two hours?

You don't even need to sleep with a pretty girl.

It was intentional.

It was definitely intentional.

He was deliberately showing the Special Branch a face.

The Special Branch was the boss's Special Branch, and Xuan Tiewu had no chance to intervene, so he decided to annoy them.

Sigh...

What a world...
