Scholars in the courtyard

When Cuiping's voice sounded, all the men in the room looked at her in surprise.

Especially the old man, his eyes were more shocked.

At this time, Yu Zecheng saw worry in Cuiping's eyes, but more support, encouragement, and companionship through life and death.

Because they had been together, they knew the harm of that thing.

Deep down, they hated that thing that harmed people.

"Commander, I am also a glorious soldier. I have also worked underground. I have sufficient experience in fighting the enemy."

"Please approve it, commander."

At this moment, Cuiping's calm expression was unusually firm.

"Comrade Cuiping, you have withdrawn."

Director Zeng frowned and immediately refused.

Because this operation was too dangerous, and the other party was not their man, he could not explain if something went wrong.

Thinking of this, Director Zeng looked at Yu Zecheng, wanting him to persuade him.

Unexpectedly, Yu Zecheng's eyes showed a struggling look.

Now Director Zeng felt something was wrong. This guy would not really let his woman go on a mission, would he?

Fortunately, this worry was unnecessary.

Yu Zecheng still couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

He fought hard and braved the dangers. What was he protecting?

To put it simply, wasn't it his family?

If he let his family face danger, then

what was he?

"No, this operation is critical. You don't have professional training and it's easy to make mistakes."

"I don't think so. Compared with trained people, the marks on my body are more in line with ordinary people. I think this is completely in line with the requirements."

Cuiping argued with reason, but Yu Zecheng still shook his head and refused to agree.

Cuiping looked at the old man. Here, Yu Zecheng had no say in whether he agreed or not.

Seeing this, the old man picked up a cucumber from the side, broke it open and handed a piece to Director Zeng.

"Listen to me first, and then make a decision."

Hearing this, Cuiping stepped forward and helped Yu Zecheng sit down.

The old man glanced at Director Zeng, who began to tell the story.

"Last time, Lao Yu went to Shanghai and found out that the other party left underwater after much investigation."

"Submarine?"

Yu Zecheng asked, and Director Zeng nodded.

Then the room fell silent again.

There are not many countries that have submarines, at least not many that can enter the inland sea at this time.

Everyone knows that it is not only the people on the other side who are behind this.

"We guess that the enemy is likely to unite. Otherwise, they would not use this method and plan so carefully."

Director Zeng finished speaking and continued, "Based on the items left in the house, we traced the source of the items."

"For this matter, we have already selected the backbone personnel of the Southern Yunnan Detachment to deal with it. You must cooperate well at that time."

Speaking of this, Yu Zecheng suddenly had an idea, "Chief, I have a suggestion."

"Say it."

"I think that dogs can be involved in this search."

Yu Zecheng thought of Wangcai's abnormal ability, which was the same as its owner.

Then he told Wangcai about his story. Of course, Wangcai's descendants also performed well, just like his Dalong and Xiaolong played an important role in Haojing.

"Yes, the Wangcai in our yard and his family of dogs are very powerful and can smell out bad people and good people."

Cuiping also affirmed on the side.

Director Zeng looked at the old man, who nodded.

"This is exactly what we are going to talk about next."

Director Zeng looked serious.

Yu Zecheng patted Cuiping's hand and told her not to get excited.

"We formed a joint team because the other side's goal has not been achieved and they have to continue."

"What is their goal?"

"To stop us from developing our surface forces."

The old man on the side suddenly spoke up, and then explained, "The other side realized the crisis through two failed naval battles and wanted to destroy our surface construction."

"And to destroy, one way is to destroy the shipyard."

"Another way is to eliminate the shipbuilders."

"The key factor in our achievements in recent times is the change of the engine, which has given us a huge advantage."

"Now not only Shanghai, but also the north has successfully modified more than ten speedboats with the support of the engine, and has participated in operations in the northern waters many times, achieving very good results."

"The south is also planning to introduce this engine, and I believe it will soon form combat effectiveness."

"In addition, the south is thinking about putting missiles on it. At that time, having a high-speed bayonet and missiles will become an important weapon."

"Do you think the other side can still sit still in this situation?"

Yu Zecheng shook his head, and the northwest and south sides exerted their strength together to form a semi-encirclement. Anyone who saw it would be anxious.

"So their alliance this time just gives us a chance to catch them all in one fell swoop."

After the old man finished speaking, Director Zeng took out a document from his bag and handed it to Yu Zecheng.

"This is our preliminary plan, take a look."

Yu Zecheng took the document, and Cui Ping took the initiative to walk aside.

After flipping through two pages, Yu Zecheng looked up in surprise, then looked at the old man, "Chief, should we discuss this matter again?"

"This is too dangerous for Comrade Yang Xiaotao."

The plan in the report can be simply summarized in four words.

Draw the snake out of its hole.

Yang Xiaotao is the bait. Through external publicity, Yang Xiaotao is designing gas turbines for the shipyard, which will cause the other party to take action and catch them all in one fell swoop.

However, in this case, it is very likely that Yang Xiaotao and even his family will be exposed to risks.

Based on his understanding of Yang Xiaotao, the other party will definitely not agree.

The old man shook his head after hearing this, "Do you think this is the news we released?"

"We are just following the trend."

"When Comrade Yang Xiaotao designed an eight-cylinder diesel engine to provide power for ships, the other party had already set their sights on him."

"Do you think they will let him go?"

"This time, our plan is to lure the snake out of the hole and protect him. Only by sweeping away the snakes, insects, rats and ants hiding behind can their safety be guaranteed."

Hearing this, Yu Zecheng understood in his heart.

It's not that he doesn't want Yang Xiaotao to get into the game, but Yang Xiaotao is already in the game.

"The leader is right, this is indeed the best way."

Yu Zecheng nodded.

At this time, Cui Ping seemed to understand, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Chief, since we are protecting Comrade Yang Xiaotao's family, I must join the action."

"Our families are all in the same courtyard, and Comrade Yang Xiaotao's wife and I are best friends, so it is more convenient to protect."

Yu Zecheng also reacted, "Chief, Director, I agree."

Seeing that both of them said so, the old man and Director Zeng did not object.

"Comrade Yu Zecheng, this time is more serious than before."

"Since the enemy's vicious methods can be used in Shanghai, they can naturally be used in this city."

"Your mission is very serious, and you must also beware of cold arrows from the dark."

"This joint investigation is also secretly organized, and it is announced to the outside world that you are still recovering from your injuries and have not taken action."

"Comrades who came back with you will all join the investigation team this time, and your actions are kept confidential."

Director Zeng explained again, Yu Zecheng took a deep breath, and then nodded, "Please rest assured, Chief, we will never repeat the same mistakes this time, and we will definitely catch those guys."

"Okay."

The old man and Director Zeng looked at each other and stood up.

"It will take more than a week for the comrades in Shanghai to come up. During this time, you should take good care of your injuries."

"We are waiting for your good news."

After that, the two left the ward.

Xiao Liu and Yu Zecheng were the only ones left in the room.

"Director!"

Xiao Liu came to his side and finally spoke.

"Xiao Liu, how are the brothers?"

Yu Zecheng sat aside and asked.

"Lao Gui and Qiang Wa in our team are gone. We brought back their ashes and will prepare for burial tomorrow."

Xiao Liu's voice was low and sad.

They were all brothers who depended on each other. They had been through wind and rain for many years. I didn't expect that two of them would be killed this time.

"I will go to see them off tomorrow."

Xiao Liu nodded, then shook his head, "Director, you should take good care of your injuries and go see them when you are better."

Yu Zecheng shook his head, "It's okay. I know my injuries."

"I was going to be discharged from the hospital and go home to recuperate tomorrow. It's a good time to make some preparations in advance."

Xiao Liu didn't refute it after hearing it.

"Where are the others?"

"Xiaosun and Zhugan were seriously injured and are still recovering in Shanghai. They are probably coming with the comrades in Shanghai."

"The others were slightly injured and not in serious condition."

At this point, Xiao Liu stretched out his right hand, on which the ring finger and the little finger were missing, "I am considered fine now."

Seeing this, Cui Ping's breathing quickened.

It can be seen how fierce the battle was at that time.

Yu Zecheng was silent for a moment, and then said to Xiao Liu, "Go back and take care of Dalong and Xiaolong first, and wait to go back and send them to the yard."

"This time, we are going to do something big."

Seeing Yu Zecheng's attitude, Xiao Liu also raised his spirits, looking fearless, with excitement in his eyes.

"I'll go right away."

After saying that, Xiao Liu turned and left.

Cuiping put Yu Zecheng on the bed and asked, "What are you going to say to Yang Xiaotao?"

Yu Zecheng looked at the night outside the window, the leaves blowing in the wind, and smiled, "Cuiping, what kind of person do you think Yang Xiaotao is?"

"What kind of person?"

Cuiping was a little strange, but she had a very good impression of Yang Xiaotao.

Especially Yang Xiaotao's love for his family, respect for Ran Qiuye, and partiality for his daughter, made her feel that Yang Xiaotao was different from the men of this era.

At least, Yang Xiaotao never beat his wife.

This is the same as Yu Zecheng.

Of course, it was also related that Yu Zecheng couldn't beat her.

"He is an excellent comrade at work and a good man in life."

"Yes, that's right."

Yu Zecheng laughed, "but you overlooked one point."

"What point?"

"Yang Xiaotao is a person with a strong desire for control."

"Desire for control?"

"Yes, from work, the things he designed will never be changed because of other people's comments, and they are all completed under his leadership."

"This shows that he has strong self-confidence and a strong desire for control."

"To put it bluntly, it means controlling your own behavior and thoughts."

Cui Ping nodded, then asked, "Isn't this good?"

"Well, this kind of self-confidence is very good for a capable person like him."

"So what? What do you want to say?"

Cuiping was a little confused and asked Yu Zecheng to quickly reveal the answer.

Yu Zecheng's face was calm, and then he said softly, "People with such a strong desire for control often eliminate uncontrollable factors."

"Just like the current situation, if he knew that he was being targeted, his family would be in crisis."

"What he wants to do is not to escape, but to fight."

"Because he's confident and in control."

Cuiping understood somewhat, then looked at the confident Yu Zecheng beside him, and then laughed softly, "What you said seems to be talking about you too."

Yu Zecheng was stunned for a moment, then laughed softly.

"That's true."

"We can be considered the same kind of people."

Ha ha ha ha

"Bah, shameless!"

Cuiping said something, and then teased, "I have three children."

Cough cough cough

Yu Zecheng shut his mouth suddenly but choked on his saliva and kept coughing.

"Can you please not mention this matter for now?"

Cuiping snorted coldly, "You can go to sleep tonight. I'll go home and look at the stones. None of them are worrying."

"By the way, I'll get you discharged from the hospital tomorrow and wait until you get home, hum."

Watching Cuiping leave, Yu Zecheng showed a wry smile.

Then he looked at the ceiling and remembered what Shen Tao, the internal affairs officer, said about Yang Xiaotao.

‘Everything this guy is involved in can’t be solved. ’

‘It’s like he can predict everything and find a way out of any difficulty. ’

‘This guy is more suitable for this business than you. ’

A smile appeared on his calm face again, "Just take a look and see if this guy is what you said, God!"
