Chapter 1128: Chapter 1174: You Must Co If I Ask You To
Li Zhiyuan returned to his barracks and in a fit of rage, he smashed a cup on the table to the ground. The anger in his heart was indescribable. He slamd his fist onto the table and cursed, "Golden Eagle, you bastard, after hitting , you still want to transfer
over? I won’t go. What can you do about it? Just wait, I’m not done with you."
As he was cursing Li Yifei, the phone rang. Li Zhiyuan picked up without even checking the caller ID and barked, "Who is it?"
"It’s Wang Shun!"
"Wang Shun? Who’s that? I don’t know you." Saying that, he hung up the phone with a slam.
No sooner had the phone been hung up than Li Zhiyuan suddenly ca to his senses; that voice sounded familiar. Then, in an instant, he rembered who it was—the Commander of the Capital City Military Region, Commander Wang.
Although he was a direct descendant of the Li family, and there were those in his family with higher ranks than Commander Wang, even the elders in his family had to be polite and respectful when they were with Commander Wang. And here he was, losing his temper at Commander Wang. That was surely not going to end well.
He quickly redialed the phone, and the call was promptly connected. Li Zhiyuan hurriedly said in an ingratiating tone, "Commander Wang, I was in a bad mood just now and spoke out of turn. Please don’t take offense."
Commander Wang’s voice was unexpectedly stern as he said, "Li Zhiyuan, I heard that you have been assigned to the Flying Hawk Squad and you have objections?"
Li Zhiyuan quickly responded, "Commander Wang, it’s not that I have objections, but I have offended Golden Eagle. He wants
there to get rid of . Commander Wang, you can’t just send
off to die, right?"
Commander Wang snorted coldly and said, "This is the military, not so local place. An order is an order. It can’t be changed that easily. You have two hours to report to the Flying Hawk Squad!" And with that, he hung up the phone with a click.
Li Zhiyuan stood there with the phone in hand, in a daze. Commander Wang usually had a good relationship with their Li family, typically revered and conversed gently with him, but this ti, there was no such gentleness. It was the attitude of a military region leader conducting official business.
This made Li Zhiyuan feel that things were not looking good, so he hurriedly called his third uncle and urgently said, "Third Uncle, there’s trouble. I just received a transfer order to the Flying Hawk Squad."
Li Tianhua imdiately frowned. Commander Wang could have known about the special nature of yesterday’s competition, so naturally, he would have received the news. He could understand why Li Yifei would refuse to let Li Zhiyuan participate, but who would have thought that Li Yifei would not let it go and still want Li Zhiyuan to go.
And judging by Li Yifei’s attitude, if Li Zhiyuan went, he was likely to be severely tornted, if not killed.
Li Zhiyuan didn’t hear his third uncle responding and called out anxiously, "Third Uncle, and this order is from Commander Wang himself. He just called , his tone was very strict, and he even gave
two hours to report to the Flying Hawk Squad. Third Uncle, I really don’t want to go to the Flying Hawk Squad. If I go there, that bastard Golden Eagle will definitely kill ."
"Don’t panic. I’ll communicate with Commander Wang," Li Tianhua reassured Li Zhiyuan and then called Commander Wang.
"Commander Wang, it’s been a while. How have you been?" Li Tianhua tried to start with so pleasantries.
But Commander Wang imdiately said, "Director Li, I’ve been extrely busy lately, and I have a eting to attend soon."
Li Tianhua hurriedly said, "Then I’ll get to the point. My nephew Zhiyuan heard he’s being transferred to the Flying Hawk Squad."
Commander Wang feigned ignorance and said, "Yes, didn’t he always want to go? There’s an opportunity now with a competition coming up, so I imdiately arranged his transfer."
Li Tianhua cursed Commander Wang as a sly old fox in his heart, but of course, this could not be pointed out. He could only say, "Commander Wang, my nephew doesn’t want to go now. Is there any way you could cancel the transfer?"
Commander Wang imdiately said, "That’s difficult. The transfer isn’t just up to . Golden Eagle personally singled out Zhiyuan, and the top brass has already given clear instructions—whatever the Flying Hawk Squad requires, all departnts must comply. I dare not refuse."
"Commander Wang, isn’t the Flying Hawk Squad under the jurisdiction of your Capital City Military Region?"
"But the situation is special this ti. Now, the Flying Hawk Squad has completely broken away from our military region, directly under the control of the Military Commission. I really can’t help with this matter. If you don’t want your nephew to join the Flying Hawk Squad, then you should go to the Military Commission and find soone there. Director Li, I have to run—I need to attend a eting at the Military Commission. Let’s leave it at that for now."
Upon finishing, Commander Wang hung up the phone, which left Li Tianhua feeling frustrated. Commander Wang had directly shifted the issue to the Military Commission. Though their Li family was powerful, the Military Commission, being at the top level of national governance, was out of reach for a large family. Just like the Su Family, they have an old man in the Military Commission, but he has almost stopped being involved in family affairs. Now, it has almost beco a default tradition that at the highest levels, interests tied to the family must be severed.
But without proper resolution to this matter, Li Zhiyuan was indeed likely to be killed by Li Yifei, so Li Tianhua imdiately started contacting several people to try and resolve the issue and smooth things over.
Li Zhiyuan anxiously waited in his barracks; over an hour had passed when Li Tianhua’s call finally ca through.
"Third Uncle, how did it go?" Li Zhiyuan asked eagerly.
"Zhiyuan, this is difficult to handle. I’ve contacted many people, but they all say they can’t help. We have to go directly to Golden Eagle and apologize."
Li Zhiyuan imdiately roared furiously: "On what grounds? Just because he’s the captain of the asly Flying Hawk Squad, he expects
to admit I’m wrong? No way in hell."
"Zhiyuan, I don’t want this either, but the Flying Hawk Squad is now under the direct command of the Military Commission, and the Military Commission has empowered them. Now we either have to smooth things over with the Military Commission, which is too difficult, or we can only plead with Golden Eagle for rcy."
"Damn it, I won’t go. I refuse to believe they can actually do anything to !" Li Zhiyuan had always been arrogant, and even at this mont, he still couldn’t believe anyone could do anything to him.
Just then, the door was suddenly slamd open, and six people in military uniforms, ard and ready, rushed in.
"What are you doing? Who let you in?" Li Zhiyuan, already furious, imdiately started shouting.
"Li Zhiyuan, we are from the Guard Corps, ordered to escort you to the Flying Hawk Squad for reporting. Please cooperate," one of them, with an icy expression, stated their identity.
Li Zhiyuan glared and said, "So what if you’re from the Guard Corps? I’m not going."
The man spoke calmly, "If you don’t cooperate, we will have to escort you by force."
"How dare you!" Li Zhiyuan’s roar grew even louder.
"Take action!" The leader gestured, and the other five swiftly sward forward, efficiently subduing Li Zhiyuan.
"Assholes, let
go! Do you know who I am? All of you piss off, I’ll kill you! Uncle, help !"
Li Zhiyuan started off quite defiant, but these n were indifferent to him. They subdued him in an instant, which truly panicked him, and he quickly shouted for help into the phone that had fallen on the table.
"Stop! Stop! I am Li Tianhua!" Li Tianhua shouted loudly from the other end.
It was still the head of the Guard Corps who now picked up the phone and said, "We are carrying out orders," and then hung up the call.
Although Li Zhiyuan was still struggling, the Guard Corps had their orders—they had to deliver him to the Flying Hawk Squad by force if necessary. At this point, they were not intimidated by Li Zhiyuan at all, and their handling of him was rather rough.
The commotion was now quite big, and all the people from the barracks rushed out. Li Zhiyuan imdiately shouted: "Arrest these n, arrest them."
The soldiers in the unit were accustod to being yelled at by Li Zhiyuan and were afraid of him. At this mont, they instinctively went to follow Li Zhiyuan’s orders, but the lead mber from the Guard Corps imdiately shouted, "We are from the Guard Corps, under orders to take Li Zhiyuan!"
Only then did everyone notice the uniforms of the opposition. They all gasped; the Guard Corps was under the direct jurisdiction of the Capital City Military Region’s headquarters. How could they, rely a battalion-sized unit, dare to provoke the Guard Corps?
So even though Li Zhiyuan was screaming and cursing loudly, the soldiers didn’t dare to act recklessly.
Once outside the barracks, Li Zhiyuan was pushed onto a military jeep and swiftly transported to the Flying Hawk Squad.
Upon reaching the Flying Hawk Squad, the head of the Guard Corps respectfully saluted Zheng Mingrui, who ca to et them, and said, "We are ordered to deliver Li Zhiyuan to the Flying Hawk Squad. Captain Zheng, please take him into custody."
Zheng Mingrui looked at Li Zhiyuan, who was now pale as death, and a cruel smile appeared on his face. This sent a shiver down Li Zhiyuan’s spine as he realized that he was about to be subjected to inhumane treatnt.
After completing the handover procedures with the Guard Corps, they left. Li Zhiyuan suddenly felt utterly alone, as if those fierce Guard Corps mbers were sohow more affable than the people of the Flying Hawk Squad.
"Slap!" Zheng Mingrui smacked Li Zhiyuan’s neck with his hand, almost knocking Li Zhiyuan to the ground, and barked, "What did you learn in the army? Is this how you respond to a superior?"
Li Zhiyuan managed to steady himself and glared at Zheng Mingrui with fiery eyes, his lips tightly pursed as he said venomously, "Zheng Mingrui, you dare to hit ! You’re a dead man!"
Zheng Mingrui laughed heartily and said, "Oh good, then I’m eager to see how you’ll kill . Blackie, this greenhorn is now your responsibility; teach him how to follow the rules here in Flying Hawk Squad."
A nearly two-ter-tall burly man charged over in a flash, licking his lips with his tongue, and his eyes—big as copper bells—stared at Li Zhiyuan like a hungry grey wolf eyeing a juicy lamb. "Captain, don’t worry, I’ll train him well," he said.
Li Zhiyuan’s entire body went cold. What exactly was this giant man Blackie going to do to him?
