Although the number of troops stationed in the port was small, their position was very important. It was China's military deployment to the special administrative region after returning.
Moreover, the central government had a deeper meaning to the establishment of the port troops. That was to create a 'simulation' for the military deployment of Taiwan after the return. Of course, compared to Hong Kong, the situation in Taiwan was more complicated and changeable. It was not as simple as the situation in Hong Kong.
However, the Central Government had released at least one piece of information, which was the importance the country attached to the Special Administrative District.
Due to the important position of the troops stationed in Hong Kong, the commanders and political commissar were all generals with great futures in the military, especially the commanders. After training in the Hong Kong troops for a few years, they would be promoted and take up more important military positions.
Lu Zhenwu used to be Old Master Zhao's soldier and had fought in Vietnam with Zhao Dingzhou. Old Master Zhao was not only his old leader, but also his teacher. Therefore, Lu Zhenwu was a "diehard fan" of the Zhao Faction and one of the core members of the Zhao Faction.
In order to balance the influence of the Zhao Faction in the Hong Kong army, the Central Government appointed someone from another military faction. The position of political commissar was Hong Zhiren.
Although the strength of that faction in the military could not be compared to the Zhao Faction, it could not be underestimated. The older generation was also one of the founding suites of China.
However, the relationship between this faction and the Zhao Faction was still quite harmonious. That senior and Old Master Zhao respected each other even more. There was no malicious power struggle between the two factions. There had always been positive competition.
Hong Zhiren was a tall man less than fifty years old. He looked very peaceful and more like a scholar rather than an iron-blooded soldier. He had the bearing of a Confucian general.
He had been famous for Zhou Hao for a long time. He had heard Lu Zhenwu praise Zhou Hao constantly in the base. Now that he had the chance to see Zhou Hao, he carefully looked at him.
After a long while, he smiled and said: "As expected, the Wind God is young and handsome. No wonder Old Master Xie praised you. "
Zhou Hao hurriedly said humbly, "General Hong, you flatter me. "
He knew that the "Old Master Xie" that Hong Zhiren was talking about was the senior of the military faction, Xie Fangting. She was the elder of the Xie Faction and had the same status as Old Master Zhao in the Zhao Faction.
Although Xie Fangting was not as stable as Old Master Zhao, who was still in the lead position and had retired for a few years, his influence in the military was still not to be underestimated. He was also the only one who dared to argue with Old Master Zhao and did not annoy him.
According to the old man, this old man was one of the oldest revolutionary. He had once commanded the war against the United States and supported the dynasty. One of his legs was also blown up in that war.
However, this old man was a tough man. Even though one of his legs had been blown up, he was still able to grit his teeth and kill an American lieutenant general with his dagger. His military merits were extremely impressive.
As Zhou Hao had been running around, he had never had the chance to meet this old general, who was worthy of his respect.
He heard Hong Zhiren laugh again. "You are Old Master Zhao's godson. According to seniority, we are of the same generation. Just call me Big Brother Hong. "
"Big Brother Hong. " Zhou Hao immediately called out to him.
"Good, good!" Hong Zhiren forcefully pressed on Zhou Hao's shoulder. "This time, you have William. Rashid and those Biochemical Warriors were captured alive.
The central and military commissar were both shocked. Everyone in the upper echelons praised you. There were even people from the military commissar who nominated you to be the second in command of the First Army. "
Zhou Hao quickly waved his hand and shook his head. "This cannot be done. The First Army is very important. How can a young kid like me be the second in command? Isn't this making me lose my godfather's face? "
"Hehe, you bastard. Isn't the current second in command of the First Army, the seventh in command, a young man who isn't even twenty years old? Are you talking about a young brat? " Hong Zhiren said in a joking manner.
"Big Brother Hong, you're deliberately making me say the wrong thing. " Zhou Hao shrugged and smiled. After a few jokes, he drew closer to Hong Zhiren.
Hong Zhiren brought Zhou Hao to the headquarters building. As he spoke, he said, "The assassin that General Lu brought back two days ago. After two days of interrogation, our Intelligence Department has obtained some useful information from that assassin.
That assassin is a member of an international assassin group. There is indeed someone who wants to kill you this time.
However, the rules of the hitman group are to avoid direct contact with the buyer as much as possible. That killer also knows nothing about the buyer, so we can't find out who is the one who bought the killer.
However, we have already asked the Military Intelligence Department to help investigate that assassination group. They will definitely find out about that reckless guy as soon as possible. "
Zhou Hao smiled at him. "I am sorry that so many people were alerted because of my matter. "
"What are you talking about?" Hong Zhiren waved his hand. "Although you do not have any official duties, you are Old Master Zhao's family and have done so many things for the country. The country is responsible for your safety. "
Indeed, Zhou Hao was a person who the higher-ups were paying close attention to. The departments that had been notified by the higher-ups were naturally very nervous about his safety.
Very soon, Zhou Hao followed Hong Zhiren to the room where the assassin was kept.
This room was not as narrow and dirty as an ordinary prison cell. Instead, it was very clean and bright. It was more like a small room in a hotel. However, the entire wall outside was made of tempered glass, so the guards outside could clearly see the prisoner's every move inside.
Moreover, the prisoner's body was also installed with a type of remote control device. If the prisoner had any unusual movements, the guards outside would immediately press the button, and the device on the prisoner's body would release a powerful electric current, causing the prisoner to instantly lose his ability to move.
Therefore, Zhou Hao could tell at a glance that this room was used to lock up important military criminals. It was a "special treatment" for the assassin who tried to assassinate him.
However, when Zhou Hao came to the outside of the room, he was still shocked when he saw the assassin through the tempered glass.
Because the killer was much thinner than the first time Zhou Hao saw him. His face was also very pale. He was sitting motionlessly in a wheelchair. His legs were disabled, because when he tried to assassinate Zhou Hao, he was severely injured by Putin's bodyguards.
The assassin's expression changed slightly when he saw Zhou Hao outside, but it quickly returned to normal.
He said in a flat tone. "I have already said everything. I don't know who the buyer is. The photo of the target was sent directly by the company. We only act according to the order of the company. "
The killer was either a Chinese or a Han. He spoke fluently in Mandarin.
Hong Zhiren told Zhou Hao, "Their assassination group is called 'Ilyan'. It's a notorious assassination group.
According to him, this' Ilian 'is headquartered in Houston in the United States. It is disguised as an online maintenance company. We have already told this information to the Interpol. "
Zhou Hao nodded. It seemed that this assassin's position in' Ilyan 'wasn't too low. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known where the headquarters of the company was.
On the other hand, Zhou Hao guessed that the guy who wanted to kill him must have sent a lot of assassins to the group. That was why the group sent a high-level assassin to assassinate him.
There was one more thing. Although Hong Zhiren said that the assassin group would try their best to avoid direct contact with the buyers in order to hide himself, many buyers who wanted to kill did not want their crimes to be known.
Thus, most people would not directly come into contact with the assassin group. Instead, they would use several layers of connections to make indirect transactions.
However, for an assassin group like "Ilian," as long as one wanted to investigate, it shouldn't be difficult to find out who the buyer was.
After figuring this out, Zhou Hao asked the assassin in the room, "Do you know how to contact your boss?"
The assassin looked at Zhou Hao doubtfully and suddenly smiled. "You are very smart. You must have thought of double the price to let our group kill that guy who bought fierce things.
To be honest, your method is very effective because. . . Our company is not the kind of company that cares about rules and regulations. As long as someone can afford it, And the target isn't someone who has enough power to threaten the group, the group will usually do as they say. "
After a pause, he continued: "But the corporation really made a mistake this time. If we had known that you were a person heavily protected by China's military, we would never have accepted this deal "
It was no wonder that they failed. Before assassinating every target, 'Ilyan' would usually investigate the target beforehand to avoid provoking any forces that they couldn't afford to offend.
However, Zhou Hao's background was strictly confidential in the country, and Zhou Hao himself kept a low profile. Therefore, 'Ilian' only found out that Zhou Hao was the only son of the chairman of the Tongguang Food Company and did not have any other special identity.
That was why he sent someone to assassinate Zhou Hao. Unexpectedly, such a move alarmed the entire China military.
When the assassin accidentally got caught and found out that the person interrogating him was the China military, he knew that his organization was finished this time.
Even if the corporation's headquarters was located in the United States and it was very difficult for the China side to get rid of it there, the corporation's business outside of the United States would be destroyed like leaves blown away by the wind.
At this time, Zhou Hao said, "I don't mean for your corporation to kill that guy. I will deal with the person who bought me. I just want to find out who that guy is through your corporation. "
Staring at this killer, Zhou Hao said, " If you take the initiative to explain, I can still save your life and not hand you over to the Interpol. Otherwise, hmph hmph hmph. . . You can think about it yourself. "
