Chapter 283 Situation (I)
Just after Zhang Hao got up the next day, Bu Liangren had already hurried over, bringing news about the Tanaka Group.
"I came here just after I got the news. Tanaka Group raided Banqiao District last night, and there is a tendency to expand outward!" Bu Liangren said with a gloomy face and two panda eyes. It seems that the reporting work of the military last night was not simple.
Kisame Nana said viciously: "Damn it! In this way, the losses of Tanaka Group yesterday can be made up again! Is there no action taken by the guards?!"
Bu Liangren rubbed his brows and said helplessly: "More than 20,000 guards have just been surrounded. How can they have the energy to prevent the surprise attack of the Tanaka Group? I just didn't expect them to move so quickly!"
Zhang Hao tapped his fingers lightly on the table. "After this battle, both the Tanaka Group and the Guards were defeated. However, the Guards can take a break, but the Tanaka Group cannot. They can only survive if they act quickly to occupy the Banqiao District and control the resources."
Bu Liangren nodded silently. Surviving in desperate situations is always better than planning before taking action, and it can inspire people's fighting spirit. The Tanaka Group is now a mad dog that has been forced into a desperate situation and will bite anyone it sees.
Everyone understands that last night was a rare and precious opportunity to eliminate the Tanaka Group, but the command of the guard has never been decided by the Ministry of National Defense alone. Even though Takahashi Ryoken tried hard last night to withdraw the elite guards of the Imperial Palace nearby and kill the Tanaka Group with a surprise attack, in the end he was accused of being disloyal to the Emperor!
It seems that the island country is not a monolithic entity, and the various factions are equally complex.
This also gave the Tanaka Group an opportunity to capture the Banqiao District last night. After all, facing the poorly defended Banqiao District, a thousand men in black robes were more than enough.
Zhang Hao frowned. The island government was still fighting among itself, and the Tanaka Group would not give them any time to breathe!
After controlling Banqiao District, the Tanaka Group has regained control of the population resources, which means that it can create more people in black robes and more human computers. With this power, the Tanaka Group's influence will grow like a snowball, and finally crush everything that stands in the way of the snowball!
"Can you take me to see the Minister of Defense?" Zhang Hao asked Bu Liangren. He wanted to make his last effort to prevent the tragedy from happening!
"Okay!" Bu Liangren agreed immediately. He came here this morning to ask Zhang Hao to lobby again and make the people in the Ministry of National Defense realize the seriousness of the matter.
After arranging the people for the spring meeting, Zhang Hao and Bu Liangren left by car and rushed to the government building where Takahashi Ryoken had been working recently.
In the car.
"Hmm~ where did the Husky come from?" Bu Liangren glanced at the rearview mirror and saw a very majestic Husky half lying on the back seat. This sitting posture surprised Bu Liangren.
Zhang Hao smiled and did not answer. Bu Liangren did not continue to ask questions. The car soon arrived in front of the government building.
This is the Nth time that Zhang Hao has come here. The security is obviously much tighter, with a guard every three steps.
Under the guidance of Bu Liangren, without too much questioning, the two men and the dog successfully entered the government building.
Inside the building, the telephone kept ringing. Generals in guard uniforms and government workers in suits and white skirts were walking between the desks, holding thick documents in their hands and looking anxious.
Bu Liangren explained, "Since last night, the phone in Banqiao District has been ringing non-stop. There are calls for help, police, firefighters, and the names of the soldiers who died yesterday are also being compiled. There are a lot of issues to deal with, including pensions and aftermath, and re-dispatching the guard team is also a tedious task, not to mention news releases and the like... "
When Zhang Hao saw this scene and heard Bu Liangren's words, his first thought was that he must not let his country repeat today's tragedy...
Bu Liangren grabbed a little girl who was passing by, holding a thick stack of documents in her hand.
"Ah! It's Inspector Bu, what's wrong? Hey~ President Zhang! Why are you here too!"
Zhang Hao was surprised. The girl in front of him was the little policewoman from the Shinjuku District Police Station whom he had seen several times.
Zhang Hao was also quite impressed by this young policewoman, so he asked, "Why are you here?"
The policewoman quickly said, "President Zhang, I was the one who asked you first, why are you asking me now~"
Bu Liangren explained, "There were a lot of reports about things happening in Shinjuku District, and the higher-ups wanted to thoroughly investigate the past affairs of the Tanaka Group, so I recommended her to come and help."
Then he asked, "Is Minister Takahashi free?"
The policewoman pointed to the meeting room next door with a bitter look on her face, and pursed her lips and said, "They are in a meeting!" Then she lowered her voice and whispered, "I heard that Minister Takahashi and the Prime Minister had an argument..."
"What did you quarrel about?"
"I heard that it happened last night. Minister Takahashi wanted to use the guards of the Imperial Palace, but the Prime Minister disagreed." It seems that everyone knows about this matter, and the little police girl said it without thinking.
Bu Liangren said "Oh" and was worried. The top management was still arguing. He wondered what changes Zhang Hao could bring.
Zhang Hao stepped aside and said with a smile, "Thank you. We won't delay your work. We'll just wait here."
The young policewoman smiled sweetly at Zhang Hao and ran away quickly.
The waiting lasted for more than two hours, during which time there were constant sounds of quarreling coming from the conference room.
Everyone in the government building was busy, and apart from the young policewoman who poured two cups of tea for the two men, no one came over to ask about their whereabouts.
Finally, the door to the conference room opened, and Defense Minister Takahashi Ryoken came out angrily, followed by the Prime Minister who was still chattering.
Bu Liangren hurried forward, explained his purpose, and pointed at Zhang Hao who was waiting.
Takahashi Ryoken looked towards Zhang Hao's position, his face flushed from the argument just now, he forced a smile and nodded slightly at Zhang Hao.
Bu Liangren waved his hand, Zhang Hao stood up and walked towards Takahashi Ryoken's office. Ace also shook his head and followed him in.
As soon as he entered the office, Takahashi Ryoken saw the Husky at first sight, which the busy people outside hadn't noticed. He was a little surprised. The dog's eyes looked strange... But he didn't think much about it...
"President Zhang, although the guards suffered heavy losses this time, your case has already been reported to the lower levels. Thanks to you, a massacre was avoided!"
Zhang Hao waved his hands. He felt embarrassed by what the other party said. The entire guard team was wiped out, and he had to take action only to protect the Chunshang Meeting.
Then Takahashi Ryoken sighed and said, "I'm sure you heard what I just said, these people in the cabinet! The opportunity is fleeting!"
"They still don't agree to requisition the palace guards? Are they going to turn a blind eye to the news sent back from Banqiao District today?" Bu Liangren was also very angry and emotional.
Zhang Hao frowned when he heard this. If Takahashi Ryoken couldn't influence the cabinet's decision, he wondered how much leverage the news he brought today could provide to the other party.
