#336 - Chapter 336 Shen Wengang Leaves Dark Night - I have a space station

Liu Feiying's face turned ashen upon hearing these words.

This was another instance of shooting himself in the foot.

Suo Tonghua was right; the Northwestern Military Region's battlefield defeat was indeed related to the Military Affairs Department. The Military Affairs Department provided weapons and equipment, and the department also provided plans for troop deployment, tactics, and strategies. He himself wouldn't dare say he bore no responsibility.

Failing to handle his own affairs well, yet going to find fault with others, would seem weak and unconvincing no matter how reasonable his words were.

"Agreed!"

Seeing so many councilors expressing their views, Liu Feiying was indignant but helpless.

"Councilor Suo's two suggestions are also very good, in my opinion. Councilor Liu, your Military Affairs Department can copy the relevant data and materials from this campaign and arrange for an expert team to carefully observe and study them. You must analyze some tactical essentials from them to optimize our army's combat methods under the new circumstances. You should also conduct technical demonstrations on the new weapons, equipment, and technologies displayed in it. Advocate that everyone open their minds and innovate boldly, and it would be best to design some similar combat equipment, or even new equipment that can restrain the enemy's tactics," Bai Liji said.

"Yes!" Liu Feiying accepted the order.

Suo Tonghua secretly curled his lips. He believed that Bai Liji's arrangement was just a way to smooth things over and protect his own. How could the problems of the Military Affairs Department be solved by holding a few seminars? But Bai Liji had already set the tone, so there was no need to discuss this matter any further.

The following time was spent discussing the awards for this campaign.

When it came to the issue of awards, everyone had disagreements on one matter.

That was the issue of the Dark Night Squad.

The information reported back by He Jinghui said that the Dark Night Squad's captain, Tian Gang, was suspected of having a special relationship with the Huatong Chamber of Commerce. This made the existence of the Dark Night Squad very awkward.

Liu Feiying believed that the investigation into the Huatong Chamber of Commerce had not yielded any substantial results, which might be related to Tian Gang's special identity. To put it bluntly, he suspected that Tian Gang was a spy arranged by the Huatong Chamber of Commerce.

However, some people also said that the possibility was not high. After all, when the Military Affairs Department took the lead in recruiting asymptomatic infected people nationwide, the Huatong Chamber of Commerce had just been established. It would not make much sense for them to arrange for personnel to infiltrate the Military Affairs Department. It would be more cost-effective to control a resettlement site.

However, most people remained silent on this matter.

It's better to believe it than not. How to treat the Huatong Chamber of Commerce is one thing, and how to deal with the Dark Night Squad is another. A gentle approach can be taken towards the Huatong Chamber of Commerce in the short term, but the Dark Night Squad must be treated with utmost caution.

Therefore, the final consensus was to transfer Tian Gang and his sister Qian Luo from the Dark Night Squad, and select an outstanding member from among them to be promoted to the new captain. In order to avoid the departure of Tian Gang and Qian Luo from affecting the entire team, the council decided to adopt a method of promotion in name but demotion in reality. Finally, after Zongzhen Yue's repeated efforts, he got the two of them to the Southeast Military Region. Zongzhen Yue didn't care whether there was a relationship between Tian Gang and the Chamber of Commerce; he couldn't be happier if there was.

In addition, Bai Liji also authorized the Military Affairs Department to recruit new mutants nationwide, planning to expand the team's members from 17 to 50.

After all, the performance of the Huatong Chamber of Commerce's mercenary squad in this campaign was too eye-catching. It is difficult for traditional special forces to complete current combat missions. Even the worst modified person may be stronger than a king of soldiers. Therefore, the council must have such a team.

Yan Zhengping and Zongzhen Yue were the first to realize the great role that mutants would play in future wars, but both of them remained silent about the existence of the antigen serum. The reason was that the antigen serum involved the Huatong Chamber of Commerce and Dongfang Chen again, and if it continued, this topic would never end.

The irony is that most of the domestic mutants actually came from Dongfang Chen's base. A large part of them are mercenaries and sleepers from the Mercenary Guild. There are also some students who participated in the training but were unwilling to join the base.

Apart from Dongfang Chen, no one knows that anyone who walks out of the base, including sleepers or students who are unwilling to join the base, is under Dongfang Chen's monitoring. He dares to recruit a large number of students to the base for training, naturally there are protective methods.

When they were injected with the antigen serum, they had already been implanted with micrometer-sized monitoring robots. Like the monitoring robots implanted in the bodies of Ling Yue, Ling Tian and other holy sons, they would reach the brain and hide after being injected into the body. Anyone who tries to leak the secrets of the base will be strangled at the first time.

He doesn't want anyone to leak secrets, and he's not afraid of anyone leaking secrets.

Liu Feiying is still complacent at this moment, but perhaps he will never think that after one Tian Gang leaves, several new sleepers will appear in the Dark Night Squad.

After the handling of the Dark Night Squad was discussed, the next step was the Huatong Chamber of Commerce.

The Huatong Chamber of Commerce also made great efforts and played a key role in determining the victory or defeat of the war. It would be unreasonable not to reward them, but it was really difficult to decide what to reward.
