Chapter 2
From today onwards, those who speak of peace without permission will be killed!

At this moment, in the conference room.

General Bobei was holding a high-level commanders meeting.

Many of the commanders in the Bobei Army looked slightly worried, and he had to take it into account.

Because this fight with the Federal Government Army had indeed been going on for a while, the army's weapons and ammunition had suffered considerable losses.

These commanders were worried that due to the lack of weapons and ammunition, they would be exhausted and lose momentum.

Some commanders suggested: "Should we adopt a delaying tactic, temporarily agree to the government army's peace talks, and then take the opportunity to replenish some weapons and ammunition?"

General Bobei himself advocated fighting to the end;

He knew that a powerful enemy cannot be allowed to exist beside your bed.

How could the Federal Government Army tolerate his existence!?

In recent years, the Bobei Army has been in a flourishing state, long a thorn in the eye and a pain in the neck of the Federal Government Army.

What kind of peace talks, it probably wouldn't be sincere, there must be another conspiracy behind it.

Seeing that many commanders at the meeting were wavering in their hearts.

Guo Jiaolong quickly urged: "General! Now we have won several battles, and we have already made these Federal Government Army soldiers terrified!"

"They are already terrified, and that's why they came to negotiate!"

"Why don't we agree? This way we can get a chance to breathe, at least we can have some time to replenish our ammunition!"

Guo Jiaolong's words won the agreement of many Bobei Army commanders.

"Yes, General! We don't have much ammunition in our hands now, and the Federal Government Army is blocking most of the passes and checkpoints, we have no chance to replenish ammunition."

"If this continues, there will be problems!"

At the entrance of the conference room, Li Ding, who had just arrived, heard the unanimous pleas for peace from many commanders.

Is this a coup!?

He knew that many commanders here were just following the trend;

Some, like Guo Jiaolong, were secretly bought by the government army to undermine the morale of the Bobei Army.

Bang!——

Li Ding pushed open the door to the conference room and strode in.

"Commander!"

Many commanders were startled when they saw Li Ding enter the conference room.

Guo Jiaolong and others were even more terrified, fearing that their previous attempts to incite the commanders would be heard.

They all knew the commander's reputation and prestige in the army;

They also knew that Li Ding was a staunch advocate for war, a renowned hawk leader in the Bobei Army.

Guo Jiaolong, his face full of fear, was about to stand up to explain.

Then a dull gunshot rang out in the conference room!

Bang!

No one expected that just as Guo Jiaolong was about to speak, Li Ding drew his gun and fired!

The speed was so fast! It was impossible to react.

With a single shot, he ended Guo Jiaolong, who had stood up to speak.

The smell of blood filled the conference room, and everyone fell silent.

General Bobei looked at his eldest son, a wave of relief washing over him.

Li Ding's eyes were sharp, he looked around at everyone in the conference room;

He shouted sharply: "Peace talks? Ha!"

"The Federal Government is using a soft knife to cut flesh, can't you people see it!?"

"From this day forward, anyone who dares to speak of peace will be killed without mercy!"

The death of Guo Jiaolong, a commander in the Bobei Army, shook the various forces around Bo Mo.

Recently, the war between the Bobei Army and the Federal Government Army had attracted the attention of the various forces in Bo Mo.

Everyone was very concerned about the next move of the Bobei Army.

The fact that Guo Jiaolong had tried to persuade General Bobei to cease fire was known to some extent by the various forces;

And everyone was also very concerned about the outcome.

After all, during wartime, the various parts of Bo Mo were full of soldiers blocking the roads.

Many transportation routes would be blocked or even directly closed.

As for businesses like border water, logging, or mining, they rely on roads for their livelihoods.

If the Bobei Army and the Federal Government Army could cease fire, it would be something that many forces would be happy to see.

However, none of the various forces expected that the young commander of the Bobei Army District would be so decisive.

He directly killed Guo Jiaolong in the meeting to suppress the peace faction within the Bobei Army.

For a time, people in the various forces became even more afraid of this Bobei commander.

On the other hand, something big happened in Bo Mo.

Mining for gemstones in the Mo Mine Mountain is also a major industry in Bo Mo.

Most of the time, the government is responsible for the management of mining affairs.

At the very least, they are all locals running the mines.

The only exception is a Chinese mine owner named Wu Haishan.

And this time, the big thing that happened was also at Wu Haishan's mine.

It is said that Wu Haishan's mine discovered a top-grade pigeon's blood red.

Speaking of, the top grade among gemstones is ruby.

And this pigeon's blood red is the top grade among rubies.

The gemstone discovered this time was actually a top grade among pigeon's blood reds, its value can be imagined.

Not only that.

This gem is the size of a thumb, its value is immeasurable.

For Bo Mo, it is a national treasure-level super gem.

Even the Federal Government is quite concerned about it.

Many of the bigwigs in the mining industry have gathered near Wu Haishan's mine.

Countless soldiers have surrounded Mo Mine Mountain, making it impossible to get in or out;

Anyone wanting to leave Mo Mine Mountain has to go through three layers of checks.

The shrewd people also knew that this was the Federal Government Army getting desperate.

In recent battles, the powerful combat effectiveness displayed by Li Ding's Bobei Army has made the Federal Government Army fearful.

And the peace plan was also completely broken with the death of Guo Jiaolong.

The top brass of the Federal Government Army wanted to use this pigeon's blood red for diplomacy;

They wanted to seek help from foreign forces to counter the Bobei Army.

However, no one knew that the top grade pigeon's blood red had already left Mo Mine Mountain······

Daban, inside the Qingya Manor.

Guess Uncle and a group of his younger brothers gathered together;

They were discussing how to dispose of the gem that was taken from Wu Haishan's mine.

"Guess Uncle… how do we dispose of this gem?"

Dan Tuo looked at Shen Xing, after all, he was the one who brought this gem out at the risk of his life.

Guess Uncle looked at the gem.

Originally, he wanted to give this gem to the zhi an guan of the Ma Niu Zhen, Aiso, in exchange for a cold chain transportation partnership with Ma Niu Zhen.

But now he had changed his mind.

Not long ago;

He wanted to join Aiso's Ma Niu Zhen cattle trading business, and offered to help Aiso come up with a plan, suggesting the idea of selling frozen cattle in a cold chain.

Unexpectedly, although Aiso adopted this decision, he kicked Guess Uncle out of the plan and got involved in cold chain sales with his brother-in-law.

Moreover, Guess Uncle predicted;

If this pigeon's blood red fell into Aiso's hands, it would probably end up in the hands of the Federal Government Army.

This was something he didn't want to see.

Guess Uncle had a long-standing relationship with the Bobei Army.

His father was a Cantonese medicine merchant, and during a chance encounter while collecting wild ling zhi on San Bian Po, he became acquainted with the doctor of General Bobei and settled here.

Later;

Guess Uncle had always maintained a close relationship with the Bobei Army.

The Bobei Army's material supply, and even its arms trading with the outside world, were all participated in by Guess Uncle.

With such a close relationship, Guess Uncle naturally supported the Bobei Army.

Since that was the case, it would be better to give the ruby to Li Ding of the Bobei Army than to give it to Aiso!
