Chapter 250 Just hide
He Shifeng was accustomed to big events. He quickly came to his senses and asked, "So the cause of this global snowstorm was really the remains of the extremely frozen nebula?"
"Yeah." Ai Wanxin said calmly.
Logically, she should first ask Sheng Xiuming about the specific time when they took away the remains of the Polar Frozen Nebula, and then compare it with the time when the heavy snow stopped, so as to know whether the heavy snow was caused by the remains of the Polar Frozen Nebula.
But is she such a cautious person?
"You just said that you didn't see the remains of the Frozen Nebula. So where did it go?"
In fact, she said "picked it up", but this little misunderstanding didn't have much impact, so Ai Wanxin didn't correct him, and just said: "Someone put it into the wormhole."
He Shifeng was stunned for three seconds.
"...Is it the wormhole I know about?"
"Yeah." Ai Wanxin said again without changing her expression.
Although she was not entirely sure, there was no need to make things too clear.
"By whom..." He Shifeng continued the topic with some difficulty.
"It is said that he is a man who came back from the dead."
He Shifeng strategically closed his eyes; his worldview was being shattered and recast at a rapid pace. However, when he opened his eyes again, the battle-hardened army commander had regained his usual calm and composure.
"I don't think it can be explained in a few words. Let's talk about it in detail when you return to Glory City."
"Huh? Are we going to Glory City?" Ai Wan asked curiously.
"The Security Bureau plans to convene executive officers from all bases for a meeting in Glory City and hold a rank-awarding ceremony at the same time."
Although she didn't understand the logic of calling all the executives from the base to Glory City for a meeting at this time, it just so happened that she did plan to go to Glory City.
"When?" Ai Wanxin asked.
"A month later."
"Speaking of the base, I also have something to ask you. You know the Frost City on the Winter Ridge, right? Why didn't the army and government rescue it?"
He Shifeng's face froze. He thought for two seconds and said solemnly, "After the incident, the main rescue force in major cities was the local garrison. The last news sent back by the 9th Light Mountain Infantry Division of the Frost City Garrison was that the entire Frost City had fallen, and then they completely lost contact with the military."
"After evaluation, the Military Intelligence Department determined that the 9th Mountain Division had been completely wiped out. It also listed Frost City as a captured area and suggested that it clean up the missiles, but the proposal was rejected by the parliament."
"Wanxin, I'm not making excuses. The fact is that the survival of Maple City and Glory City is just an isolated case. The Ninth Mountain Division and the news they sent back about the fall of Frost City are the norm now. The losses from this disaster have exceeded anyone's imagination."
Ai Wanxin tilted her head in confusion: "But the entire Frost City has not fallen. On the contrary, there are still many survivors here."
"In fact, the zombies here are relatively obedient to a certain extent."
A trace of confusion flashed across He Shifeng's eyes. This emotion had not appeared in his dictionary for at least thirty years.
"I don't understand, Wanxin." He said thoughtfully.
"This is a long story, so let He Yang tell you." Ai Wanxin was very considerate and created an opportunity for the father and son to be alone. "What I mean is that the intelligence that the 9th Mountain Division sent back to the military was wrong. Of course, I didn't say they did it on purpose. The judgment made by the Military Intelligence Department based on this wrong intelligence should have been the most appropriate. So why did the parliament veto it? What was their reason?"
He Shifeng's thick black eyebrows were deeply furrowed: "The reason of the parliament is..."
In fact, the parliament did not give a clear reason. The parties just kept arguing and failed to reach a consensus. In the end, Feng Jingyi asked the Military Intelligence Department to go back and get additional evidence, and the matter was delayed.
This is the usual practice of the parliament, so it did not arouse his suspicion until today.
Even if a missile cleansing is to be carried out in a small border town that has already fallen, the priority will not be too high. After the first proposal was rejected, it is unknown when it will be discussed again.
The army commander, who had been immersed in the conspiracy of swords and sabers for many years, keenly sensed something unusual. He made a prompt decision and said, "Wanxin, I have something I want to ask you for help with."
Ai Wanxin smiled and said, "Uncle He, although I didn't get the remains of the Frozen Nebula, I won't take credit for the snow stopping, but what you just saw was not easy to do. The price hasn't been negotiated yet, so we can't add new debts before we settle the previous ones."
He Shifeng nodded: "What do you want? Once the detailed report comes in, I will try my best to get it."
"We can discuss other things later, but you should make a decision now." Ai Wanxin ignored his excuses and said directly, "Like I said just now, not all of Frost City has been destroyed. There are many survivors living in the old city on Lingdian Mountain. Moreover, a large part of the zombies here have been cleared out. In addition, the Hell Well is located on Lingdian Mountain. I think it is necessary to build a base in Frost City."
"So..." He Shifeng roughly guessed what she meant and gave her a topic to talk about.
"So, I can help Frost City build the base, but I won't stay here forever. Frost City needs to appoint a separate executive officer, and the candidate for this executive officer must be decided by me."
At that moment, countless words of confrontation with Feng Jingyi flashed through He Shifeng's mind, and soon he made his promise: "I promise you."
Ai Wanxin smiled and said, "What did you just say you wanted me to help you with?"
He Shifeng's eyes were solemn: "Find the Ninth Mountain Division and find out why they sent back the wrong message that the whole city had fallen."
Ai Wan thought to herself, "If they have been completely wiped out, I may not be able to find anything useful."
He Shifeng smiled broadly: "It's okay, Wanxin, your help in building the base in Frost City is enough to match your small request. Whether you can find useful clues or not, since Uncle He has promised you, he will never break his promise."
"Uncle He is a quick-witted person, I like him the most." Ai Wanxin praised, "By the way, although I didn't pick up the remains of the Frozen Nebula, what we went through was not easy at all, so you can't blame me for the rank of major general. You have to talk to the parliament. If they don't give it to me, I will go to talk to them in person in a month. Tell them to wait for me."
He Shifeng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Didn't you just say we'll discuss it later?"
"Yes, didn't we discuss something in the middle?"
He Shifeng laughed: "Wanxin, I didn't mean to shirk my responsibility when I said we'll discuss it later. I will take care of this matter, you can rest assured."
