Chapter 2741 The Main Battlefield is in the Province

"Why has the Yang family been able to grow into such a towering tree in Shazhou? The fundamental reason is that its roots are deeply rooted in the province. This is the fundamental reason why it can stand firm no matter what storms it goes through. But because the roots are buried in the ground and cannot be seen, everyone ignores them."

"Why did Qi Yaqiu fail and die? It was because he didn't consider this at all. He thought that as long as he carried out a major overhaul on Shazhou, he would eventually be able to bring down the Yang family."

"If I were naive enough to think that I could take action against the Yang family after rectifying the Shazhou City Public Security Bureau and cracking down on Shao Hongli's forces, I would immediately become the next Qi Yaqiu." Qin Feng took a big puff of his cigarette.

"I understand what you mean." Yang Yuxin suddenly realized.

"You said earlier that Yang Zhijie was anxious because I had colluded with the Shazhou City Public Security Bureau. That's true. Yang Zhijie was anxious to see me die. But your Yang family was just anxious, not panicked. Did you see your father panic?"

"Why are you panicking? Because I'm only causing trouble in Shazhou. As long as the provincial government's protection is intact, the Yang family won't be able to cause any more trouble in Shazhou, and your Yang family will be safe."

"Yang Zhijie may not understand this principle, so he was a little anxious and confused, but your father must have been very clear about it, so he didn't panic or move, and remained firmly behind the scenes."

"So, it's far from the time to fight a bloody battle with your Yang family." Qin Feng said.

"If that's the case, then why did you do this this time? You made such a big fuss and everyone thought you were preparing to launch a full-scale attack on the Yang family." Yang Yuxin asked puzzledly.

"Eat one bite at a time and do one thing at a time. Although it's not time to launch a general attack on the Yang family yet, that day will come sooner or later. I must eradicate the Yang family and remove this cancer for the people of Shazhou. I will avenge the people of Shazhou, Comrade Qi Yaqiu, and Liu Xiaonan."

"Although I can't touch the Yang family right now, I have to prepare for that day. And this matter is like boiling a frog in warm water. I have to take it slow, advance step by step, and slowly nibble away at it."

"Of course, I was a bit radical this time, but being radical has its advantages. First, I need to fully control the city government and completely squeeze the Yang family out of it. Secondly... I also want to provoke the Yang family and see how many cards they have."

"It's just that I was a little too excited this time. I didn't expect that they would have such cunning and vicious means. If you hadn't warned me in advance, the consequences would be unimaginable." Qin Feng made a big turn when he said this.

"So, Yuxin, the main battlefield in the fight against the Yang family isn't here, but in the province. Shazhou is at most just a local battlefield. When the main battlefield launches an attack, Shazhou can follow suit and attack the Yang family."

"If I rashly launch an attack before the troops on the main battlefield are deployed, the main force of the Yang family in the province will take my life. My last experience is the best proof of this." Qin Feng continued.

"Secretary Zhao is here. Aren't your main forces in the province already in place?" Yang Yuxin asked again.

Qin Feng was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Yang Yuxin even knew this.

"How much do you know?" Qin Feng asked.

"It's not difficult to guess. Zhao Hongjian has a special relationship with you. You were both transferred from Jiangnan Province, and the timing of his coming to Ganliang to take office was very sensitive. And as soon as he came, your affairs took a turn..." Yang Yuxin smiled, and what she said was half true and half false.

"You're very smart. Yes, Secretary Zhao and I are old acquaintances, and we have a very good relationship. My safe return this time is mainly due to you saving Liu Xiaonan, and secondly, it's because of Secretary Zhao's arrival."

"But even if Secretary Zhao comes, it won't be enough to completely change the province's political landscape for the time being. After all, Secretary Zhao is new here, and many things need to be done slowly, especially when it comes to politics. We can't rush into anything."

"I still say that the province is the main battlefield, and we are just the secondary battlefield. We can only move when the main battlefield launches an attack. Before that, all I do is pre-war preparations, at most small local actions." Qin Feng explained to Yang Yuxin.

"I understand. I made a completely wrong prediction this time. Not only did I make a wrong prediction, but the entire Yang family might have made a wrong prediction as well. Everyone thought that you were preparing to launch an attack on the Yang family." Yang Yuxin sighed.

"This is one of the reasons why I made such a big move this time. I wanted to provoke the Yang family and see how many cards and back-up plans Yang Zhijie had. I didn't expect to test you out. This can be considered an unexpected gain." Qin Feng joked.

Yang Yuxin rolled her eyes at Qin Feng.

"Have you thought of a way to deal with Yang Zhijie and Shao Hongli's conspiracy this time?" Yang Yuxin knew that Qin Feng was talking about the assessment and project inspection.

Qin Feng shook his head: "No, it's not that easy to think of a solution."

"It's not that you haven't thought of a solution, but after I told you yesterday, you didn't completely believe what I said, right?" Yang Yuxin asked with a smile.

Qin Feng smiled and did not deny it.

"Is it difficult to deal with?" Yang Yuxin asked again.

"With such accurate information from you, it won't be difficult to resolve the assessment issue." Qin Feng raised the paper in his hand that contained the personnel information provided by Yang Yuxin.

"But their conspiracy against project inspections is very difficult to resolve. Not to mention the fact that they instigated large numbers of migrant workers to cause unrest, which is extremely sensitive and difficult to handle, I have no way of dealing with their order to halt all projects citywide."

"The Yang family and Shao Hongli have teamed up. They've secretly called for all projects to be halted. Who would dare start? Their words are much more effective than the government's."

"And if all the city's major projects really come to a halt, no one can bear the responsibility. If it gets out of hand, the provincial government will definitely intervene. If I can't resolve it..."

"Add to that the migrant workers causing unrest, and even, as you said, they're going to cause several more deaths. There's no doubt I'll be held accountable, and the responsibility will be enormous. My job will definitely be taken away, and no one can save me. This is far more serious than the last time. This is a political incident through and through."

"The most difficult point is that I have no way to resume these projects, because Yang Zhijie and Shao Hongli definitely want to kill me." Qin Feng analyzed. He has been thinking about this matter all day today.

"Then... stop it right now." Yang Yuxin became anxious when she heard this.

Qin Feng shook his head: "It has already begun, and there is no way to stop it. If I force a stop, everyone will know that I have surrendered voluntarily. Then all my previous efforts will be in vain, and my personal prestige will drop to the lowest point."
