Office.

Old Li looked at Li Yuan, picked up his teacup, and deliberately asked, "Can you figure out why Tan Hengqiang sent someone to find me at this time?"

Li Yuan thought about it very seriously: "I can probably guess, to jointly show an attitude to the higher-ups."

Old Li nodded with satisfaction: "Since you can figure it out, then you go talk to them."

"Okay!"

"Oh, right, give Liu Zi a call and tell him to come back quickly. There's a lot of things waiting for him to deal with here," Old Li urged.

"I called him," Li Yuan replied immediately, "He's helping the Chi Army negotiate the integration. He should be back after the negotiation."

...

Sri Lanka.

Inside the Third Division's headquarters, Xin Xiaodong originally wanted to take advantage of his 10,000 men to pressure Gou Liu Zi, but he didn't expect the other party to be even tougher than him, unwilling to say anything conciliatory.

The atmosphere in the room was a little awkward. After a long pause, Xin Xiaodong frowned and said, "If the old Mo government troops won't keep me, then we'll just take our troops to tramp around South Africa. I don't believe that someone with a gun can't find a place to settle down in the end...!"

"Hey!"

Before Xin Xiaodong could finish his words, Chief of Staff Wu walked in from outside the room, smiling kindly at Su Tianyu and said, "Isn't this Special Envoy Su? Forgive me for not welcoming you properly!"

Su Tianyu immediately got up, went to greet him, and extended his hand: "Hello, Chief of Staff Wu. I'm just a small fry running errands for the leaders. Please don't call me Special Envoy, or I'll get so full of myself that I won't know my own name anymore...!"

"Haha!"

Chief of Staff Wu smiled, gestured for him to sit down, and said, "Sit, sit!"

"Okay!"

The two sat down. Su Tianyu looked at Chief of Staff Wu, and he already completely understood the Third Division's motives.

Obviously, Xin Xiaodong was just a front man, playing the role of the bad guy, while Old Wu was definitely eavesdropping in another room. Now that he saw Xin Xiaodong couldn't control the situation, he came out to smooth things over.

"Hehe, how's the negotiation going?" Chief of Staff Wu asked with a smile after sitting down.

Xin Xiaodong turned his head and stopped speaking.

Seeing that Old Wu had shown his face, Su Tianyu didn't want to act too arrogantly, so he immediately softened his tone: "Well, such a big thing happened in Dragon City, and our Third Division is in the eye of the storm, in a difficult situation, so it's normal for everyone to have some emotions."

Chief of Staff Wu took over: "Yes, it's not easy to survive now. We don't really have much room for choice."

Su Tianyu paused slightly, looked at the two of them with a solemn expression, and said, "To be honest, the Third Division is in such a difficult situation now, which is somewhat related to us. But then again, before today, we all had our own positions. As friends, we want to help each other; but as opponents, we must first ensure that our own interests are maximized."

Hearing this, Xin Xiaodong scoffed: "That sounds really nice! The Third Division is in the situation it is today, and it's only a little related to you?! That's a bit disingenuous, isn't it? We've come to this point entirely because you set us up... You're not even willing to say a single soft word even now!"

Su Tianyu looked at him coldly: "Did I ask you to accept bribes from the Red Square Group? Did I press your hand to wantonly amass wealth in Dragon City?! A piece of cake is on the table, and you were the first to reach for it, eating faster than anyone else, afraid you wouldn't get any. In the end, you got poisoned, and you're pushing all the responsibility to the chef. Isn't that a bit much?"

"You...!"

"Alright," Chief of Staff Wu waved his hand, interrupting Xin Xiaodong, "There's no point in bringing up the past over and over again."

Su Tianyu was silent.

Chief of Staff Wu had a solemn expression, and after pondering for a moment, he continued, "But no matter what, the Xin family and our generals have indeed paid a lot in this matter. Since we're going to integrate, we have to work together and sing the same tune. If we don't let the brothers completely resolve the knots in their hearts, it will definitely affect the integration of the two families."

Fei Pingsheng nodded involuntarily when he heard this, thinking that the old pro was still the best, speaking concisely and getting straight to the point.

Su Tianyun pondered for a moment: "Then let's get straight to the point. The Third Division will be under the leadership of the Chi Army, but the military expenses will be calculated independently, and it will have autonomy and decision-making power in small-scale military operations. We will also allocate a good defense zone for you. You can temporarily station in Huaray Town, which is the Chi Army's base camp, with a good popular foundation and tax revenue. This is our greatest sincerity."

The conditions offered by Su Tianyu were definitely full of sincerity, and he fully considered the emotional issues of the Third Division's generals. Otherwise, he would never have agreed to let the Third Division station at the Chi Army's base camp.

Chief of Staff Wu pondered for a moment: "What about the positions?"

"Commander Xin will serve as the commander of the Third Army and the deputy commander-in-chief of the Chi Army, with voting rights in major military strategic meetings," Su Tianyu said softly, "But the condition is that the Third Division must give up a few key military positions and let the Chi Army arrange some people to come over. Similarly, the Chi Army will also give up some positions to take the lead in the integration."

Chief of Staff Wu thought for a moment: "Okay, there's no problem with the general direction. Then it's settled. I'll communicate with Zhao Weihu about the subsequent details, because Old Xin is seriously injured after all, and he doesn't have the energy to think about these things."

"Okay!"

After the two sides tested each other, the remaining negotiations went very smoothly.

Xin Xiaodong, as the bad guy, also managed to win some benefits for the Third Division. As for Su Tianyu, as long as there were no principled disputes, it didn't really matter whether he gave the other party more or fewer benefits.

The purpose of his rebuking Xin Xiaodong just now was to tell the other party that since you're here, don't you dare cause trouble for me. If you talk nicely, I'll let you have your way, but if you act too arrogantly, we don't raise spoiled brats here.

After talking for more than half an hour, Su Tianyu took the lead to stand up and said very solemnly to Chief of Staff Wu and Xin Xiaodong, "For the previous incidents, I represent the Tongji Association, the Chi Army, and Old Li's team to say sorry to you. Because of our different positions, we had to consider our own survival and interests first. But after today, we're all eating from the same pot and sleeping on the same bed. Whoever moves the Third Division is moving our collective! We will resist with all our strength, without distinction!"

Hearing this, Xin Xiaodong's expression softened a little. Da Feng Novel

"We have no choice but to stick together to keep warm. I hope our relationship in the future will be more than just about interests," Chief of Staff Wu shook hands with Su Tianyu.

...

At the same time.

Li Yuan returned to Li Mingsheng's office and said concisely, "Old Tan's chief of staff conveyed a message, saying that the garrison headquarters intends to have the guard regiment and our anti-terrorism team conduct a three-day security patrol to completely solve the chaos in Dragon City..."

"Hehe," Old Li sneered when he heard this: "The biggest source of the chaos is their garrison, and they have the nerve to say that?! Ah, alright, let's just settle it like that."

"Then, about the matter of the district calling you back to make a report...?"

"Let's wait for Liu Zi to come back before we talk about it," Old Li replied faintly.
