"Qingshi military region's responsible person, Hu Haijun, greets General Yuan!"
As these words fell, everyone present was stunned. They had never expected Yuan Gang to be a general, let alone someone who could command him like this!
Tianyi also frowned, looking at Hu Haijun in disbelief and swallowing. "General Hu, if I recall correctly, you are also a general. Why are you like this towards him?"
Tianyi simply did not understand what the Dragon Pavilion represented in their hearts!
In the military, it wasn't just about entering the capital's military that was impressive. Every soldier, without exception, strived to enter the Dragon Pavilion!
Everyone knew that the only sacred land in the military was the Dragon Pavilion. Even on the front lines, even if they were constantly fighting, what did it matter? Didn't they join the army to protect their families and country?
Furthermore, the Dragon Pavilion's status was transcendent and not everyone could join it. This resulted in a situation where for every hundred people recruited, tens of thousands applied. It could be said to be one in ten thousand!
This was also why the Dragon Pavilion's entire personnel were elites!
Let alone Tianyi, even Qin Zaitian felt it was very troublesome. The military had already gotten involved, and there was no way they could deal with them today.
"General Hu, the other party killed my son. This matter absolutely cannot be let go!"
Qin Zaitian also said coldly.
Hu Haijun glanced at them, a hint of disdain appearing on his lips. With a wave of his large hand, various weapons on the helicopter were activated and directly aimed at them.
"Since when have members of some families decided matters for our military? Or do you mean to say that no general in our military has a son as important? Furthermore, I can clearly tell you that if your sons died, it was their own fault. Our military has always been non-confrontational, but we are not afraid of trouble, understand?"
The expressions of the two instantly turned grim, their eyes filled with extreme gloom.
Qin Zaitian glanced at Tianyi and understood his thoughts, nodding slightly.
"Since that is the case, then we shall take our leave. I hope General Hu can protect them for their entire lives, otherwise..."
After speaking, the two turned and left with their men without any hesitation, their extreme gloom evident in their eyes.
Yuan Gang did not take it to heart.
"What is rapid response? From the time I gave the order to your arrival at the scene took eighteen minutes. If these were criminals, they would have already fled and wouldn't have waited for you to arrive!
A large part of their response time is related to your immediate superior. From your departure point to here is only ten minutes, and that's by driving. Tell me, where did the remaining eight minutes go?"
After they left, Yuan Gang directly reprimanded Hu Haijun. Hu Haijun's expression gradually became unsightly, but he had no way to refute it, as it was the truth.
"The core mechanism of rapid response is that even if you are sleeping, you get up within half a minute, organize your affairs, put on your equipment within half a minute, and head to the departure point, then board the aircraft within two minutes.
Although the ten-minute rule for rapid response is very applicable, it is still not up to standard! Do you know what the response time of the Dragon Pavilion is?
I can tell you clearly, it is one minute, only one minute! From waking up to boarding the aircraft is only one minute, and for any distance exceeding one kilometer in between, why can the Dragon Pavilion do it, and you cannot?"
Yuan Gang roared at him, extremely dissatisfied with the eighteen-minute figure. The delay was too long.
"Yes! I understand. I will develop training plans for this aspect after I return. Please rest assured!"
Hu Haijun immediately saluted and said respectfully. Since the problem had been pointed out, it would be corrected. This might also be the main reason for the failure of the military exercise; ultimately, it was the slow reaction.
Yuan Gang finally nodded. "Alright, you may leave."
Yuan Gang got into his car and drove away.
...
"What do we do now? The previous information never indicated any military background for the other party. Now that they clearly have a military background, it's not easy for us to make a move. If the military intervenes, we basically won't be able to touch them."
Tianyi saw it very clearly. Moreover, the other party was from the military, not someone easily dealt with. An official background!
"It's not a big problem. The military has its rules, and we martial artists have our rules. Next time, if the other party uses their military background, we will use the Martial Arts Association's background. We will control them from the top, and then we will deal with them according to the Martial Arts Association's rules!"
"But the speed needs to be faster. Xiao Xuan is dead, and I won't be able to hold this position for long. After that, I can only use the Qin family's power, and the Qin family's power is definitely no match for the Martial Arts Association."
Qin Zaitian saw these matters very clearly. Once he had no more utility, he would have no value to the Martial Arts Association, other than being a Martial Spirit expert, he had no other use.
Tianyi nodded. "I've already arranged for my people to keep an eye on him."
After leaving the highway toll booth, Yuan Gang drove his vehicle into a residential complex. This was a pre-rented house.
Huijin Haoyuan.
This was a high-rise building. To be precise, it was a villa area, but they rented an apartment in the high-rise buildings within the villa area. The environment was excellent, with a good view, clear north-south ventilation, and a commanding view of the entire complex.
The decoration was also luxurious, as those who could afford to buy houses here were not lacking in money.
"Boss, how is it? Not bad, right? Heh heh, I had to haggle with the landlord for a long time before they agreed to rent it for a month."
Yuan Gang chuckled and plopped down on the sofa, which was quite soft.
Ye Longlin nodded and said nothing more, only quietly stating, "Tomorrow is December, forty days until the New Year. Try to resolve matters here within half a month and head north to Jinling."
Xuan Niao nodded. "I have already notified the soldiers of the Dragon Pavilion. Rest assured."
"Go and investigate the whereabouts of the war criminals. Yuan Gang, go and compile the network of human relationships for the Qingshi Martial Arts Association and the Tian family for me. I need to know everything as quickly as possible."
"Understood."
"Understood."
As the two left to carry out their tasks, Ye Longlin sat on the sofa, feeling as if something was missing. He opened his phone, and Mu Hanqi's photo appeared.
He smiled gently, thought for a moment, and then dialed her number.
But... her phone was turned off.
Ye Longlin frowned. Logically, she should have returned to Jinling long ago and there should be some news.
But now there was no news. Could something have happened?
"Forget it, go with the flow. When the time comes, I will march north, and even the ancient capital of six dynasties cannot withstand my wrath."
