You Yifan paused and replied, "Xiao Yucheng, who committed the attack, is connected to the Chi Army. Before the incident, Xiao Yucheng received a remittance, also from the Chi Army. Now that the murderer is dead, the higher-ups are furious but don't know who to vent on, so they're going to be in trouble."

"Oh, I see," Yu Mingyuan roughly understood what he meant.

"Don't contact the Chi Army anymore. The trade may have to be put on hold. But we don't need to rush, things will pass sooner or later." You Yifan's attitude became very kind and friendly after Yu Mingyuan's team started working for him. "As for Wei Xiangzuo's matter, I'll take care of it for you in the next few days."

"Okay, okay, Brother Fan!" Yu Mingyuan replied.

"That's it."

After saying that, they ended the call.

"What's the situation?" Su Tianyu immediately walked over and asked.

"Ai, Old Zhao might be in trouble this time. Let's go, let's go to the Wen family and tell them about this." Yu Mingyuan said, feeling frustrated. "I originally wanted to use Zhao Wei Hu's connections to do You Yifan a favor, but who knew this would happen along the way!"

Hearing this, Su Tianyu picked up the car keys and followed Yu Mingyuan out of the villa.

At the same time, the garrison also received the news, but did not remind Zhao Wei Hu, because it involved matters of principle and no one dared to intervene easily.

…

Sinaloa, Chi Army base.

Zhao Wei Hu was completely unaware that what happened in Dragon City might involve him, because his motive for transferring those 50,000 yuan to Xiao Yucheng was very simple: he just wanted to help him.

Why would a figure like Zhao Wei Hu promote someone like Xiao Yucheng from the bottom of society?

In fact, the reason was very simple. Xiao Yucheng used to be in the Chi Army, specifically cooking small meals for Zhao Wei Hu. Although they were not in a soldier-general relationship, they often met, and Xiao Yucheng was very good at handling things. He wasn't the type to slack off after finishing his work. Instead, he would make some pickled vegetables and braised dishes when he had free time, tirelessly improving Zhao Wei Hu's meals.

Relationships are built on interaction, and Xiao Yucheng was always around Zhao Wei Hu. Moreover, he had crippled his leg while serving in the army, so their relationship was far from ordinary. That's why Old Xiao didn't call him Commander, but Brother.

It was because of this that Old Zhao asked his subordinates to send Xiao Yucheng 50,000 yuan, but he never expected that Dragon City would be watching this remittance.

In the evening, Zhao Wei Hu sat by the desk lamp, personally working on materials for army reorganization. He felt that a potential opportunity was brewing.

The First District's border closure policy and the "choose one" recall policy caused many laborers to complain. The Chi Army, wanting to grow stronger, needed to solve the problem of expanding its forces, but many people were unwilling to join them. Even though Dragon City was currently dark and corrupt, some still chose a relatively stable life, accepting the new policies submissively and numbly.

Zhao Wei Hu didn't have a high level of education, but he was diligent and hardworking. He sat at his desk, constantly smoking and editing the plan.

"Ding-ling-ling!"

A phone rang, and Zhao Wei Hu picked up the receiver. "Hello?"

"It's me, Old Huang," a man's voice said. "We've landed."

"Good," Zhao Wei Hu said with a smile. "I'll have the company pick you up."

"...As soon as possible, there's a lot of cargo this time."

"Alright." Zhao Wei Hu ended the call and called out, "Guard!"

Zhao Wei Hu's Chi Army also had investors behind it. Otherwise, relying on a group of poor people, no matter how brave, they couldn't go to the front lines empty-handed to fight for others. The Chi Army was initially formed because Zhao Wei Hu found investors, purchased military equipment, and spent money to gather a team, which slowly grew.

Tonight, a batch of goods and personnel from the investors landed on the coast of Sinaloa. Among them were seven or eight core members who were to take positions within the Chi Army. This personnel change stemmed from Zhao Wei Hu's complete integration into the Morfi government army, so the investors required people to be sent over to occupy certain management positions.

After the phone call, Zhao Wei Hu sent a company that was lurking on the coast of Sinaloa to meet the people and the cargo.

With many things happening recently, the First District closing its borders, and Zhao Wei Hu formally joining the Morfi government army, many peripheral forces that were active on the surface became low-key and began to lie dormant.

…

Around 3:40 AM.

At a certain place on the coast of Sinaloa, Old Huang, the representative of the investors, was waving to Zhao Wei Hu's men, directing them to unload the cargo from the ship, while the people he brought were standing around chatting.

"Hey, I heard that the Prince of Pingxi from the Hua region recently had someone find our superiors?"

"No way, nonsense!"

"Really? I think I heard something about it."

"...!"

While everyone was arguing, a buzzing sound suddenly echoed in the sky.

Having been on the water for years, the Chi Army and Old Huang's men immediately became alert and revealed their weapons, looking up at the sky.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Several flares suddenly rose from the sea, illuminating the entire night sky.

When Old Huang, in his fifties, looked up at the sky, his scalp went numb.

More than twenty helicopters were flying in low, and not far from the sea, three military cruisers were pushing through the waves, rushing over.

"Scatter, forget the cargo, scatter!" Old Huang suddenly shouted, "This must be the Dragon City and First District forces."

"Swish!"

The sound of an explosion rang out on the sea. The patrol ship opened fire, and a shell hit the shore, instantly shattering a small fishing boat.

Immediately afterward, a large number of heavily armed soldiers poured out of the dense forest on both sides of the shore, advancing rapidly. The number of soldiers was impossible to count.

"It's over, they've been waiting for a long time...." Old Huang was dumbfounded, knowing that he probably couldn't escape. "Quick, destroy all communication equipment and information bags, quick!"

"Everyone below, put your hands on your heads and squat on the ground, accept military control!" The voice of the helicopter rang out.

…

Dragon City.

While the navy and garrison forces were jointly arresting members of the Chi Army, Secretary-General Lu had people prepare a press conference overnight.

Tomorrow morning, the news of the arrest of Chi Army core members would be officially announced, and the case of Vice Mayor Guo's assassination would definitely be pinned on Zhao Wei Hu's head.

The news and narrative that Xiao Yucheng caused an extreme attack because the law enforcement department's extortion led to his son's death was too ugly, and would tarnish many authorities and cause many laborers to resist and question the government.

But if Xiao Yucheng's attack was a malicious retaliation by the Morfi government army and the Chi Army, deliberately assassinating the deputy mayor of Dragon City and creating chaos, then the people would hate them and reject them!

…

On the plane.

Da Bai crossed his legs, yawned, and casually asked Zhou Tonghui, "I heard that the situation near the Old Triangle near the Fifth District is also very complicated! It seems that the Prince of Pingxi from the Hua region is stationed there?"

"Gilding, maybe? I'm not sure." Zhou Tonghui replied.
