Rebirth of the Flying Era

 Hearing the news, the Huang family were all shocked. They did not expect Kuching to respond so quickly and decisively.

Without hesitation, they stopped their route, which was their important source of income.

 They thought that in the current situation, Kuching would at least have some scruples. After all, hundreds of thousands of elites were far away in Chenla. Shouldn't they put the overall situation first?

 Being so impulsive is not a decision that a mature official should make.

 Only Huang Delu and Huang Debiao looked at each other and showed a meaningful smile.

Based on their experience of working with Dufy, this is exactly Dufy's style, and it's not over yet.

Although they did not think that Du Fei would really kill them in this situation, but not killing them did not mean that he had no means to make them uncomfortable.

 The suspension of warships and routes is just the beginning.

Sure enough, Huang Delu and Huang Debiao’s guess was correct.

Just when they received the news of the interruption of the route, Subian in Yajiada also received a telegram from Du Fei.

The content of the telegram is very simple. The front line at the junction of central Java Island and the Huang family is launching an attack. Du Fei will send two gunships to provide him with fire support.

 Afterwards, in return, the two gunships will be sold to Subian at a preferential price.

Subian had seen the power of gunship aircraft in the Guixu Islands before, and wanted to buy this kind of aircraft.

 Du Fei had taken into account the reaction of the Huang family, and Subian was not well off, so he finally left the matter unsolved.

This time, Subian got his wish, and getting these two gunships will be more beneficial to his next operation on Sumanda Wax Island.

 Subian readily agreed to this kind of good thing without hesitation.

Not long after, Surabaya was suddenly attacked by an old enemy before they could figure out how to solve the problem of the Guixu and route interruption.

 In the conference room, important figures from the Huang family and several other big families gathered together.

 Everyone looked solemn.

They did not blame each other, because they had decided to cooperate with Aozhou before, and the elders of the Huang family had secretly communicated with these big families.

 I just didn’t expect that Kuching would react so violently, and now the knife has come back to make them feel the pain.

More importantly, so far, Kuching has not used any substantial force. At most, it is only one cruiser Gui Xu plus two destroyers.

  Cutting off routes was an economic method, and the Western Front used Subian.

They thought that if Kuching wanted to take action, they would have to go to war, but they just moved their fingers and made them feel extremely uncomfortable.

“Everyone, what are we going to do now? Let’s talk about it~” Huang Yunzhong looked pale and sat at the head of the conference table.

 Huang Yunzhong, who was originally hospitalized, forced himself to come out of the hospital, looking very weak.

No one said anything in the venue. Those who supported Huang Yunzhong and his son were eager to watch the joke. Those so-called veterans were so arrogant before but now they are embarrassed.

No one answered for a long time. Sitting next to Huang Yunzhong, the old man closest to him finally couldn't help but coughed slightly, intending to break the awkward situation.

 After all, the problem cannot be solved by remaining in a stalemate.

Unexpectedly, before he could speak, there was a rapid knock on the door from outside, followed by a young officer who came in and shouted "report".

 In an instant, everyone turned their heads and looked over.

The young officer quickly came to Huang Yunzhong and handed him a telegram.

Huang Yunzhong glanced at him, which made his face even more ugly. He raised his head and glanced at everyone present, and said seriously: "Gabu County and Mindong County on the Western Front have been lost. We have lost two regiments..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked.

Although they knew that Subian ordered the attack, they did not expect that the bad news came so quickly.

Logically speaking, Subian's men shouldn't be so powerful in combat. They actually defeated thousands of them in one go.

 Huang Yunzhong paused, and then said: "The other side dispatched two gunships to provide fire cover from the air..."

Now everyone understands, where did Subian get the gunship? This is clearly a punishment from Kuching.

"Commander, this..." Everyone looked at Huang Yunzhong and couldn't help but panic.

　　The previous threats by the Guixu, including cutting off the route, although it made them uncomfortable, were not fatal.

Since the cruiser cannot reach land, the route will be stopped, which will result in less profit.

 But now Subian's people are coming from the west, which is a fatal threat.

Although based on reality, Du Fei should not support Subian to destroy them, which would not be of any benefit to Du Fei.

But when they thought about Du Fei's age, they were not sure. After all, there is a saying that youth is vigorous. What if Du Fei makes a bold move regardless of the consequences?

At this time, Huang Yunzhong, who was sitting in the middle, finally spoke: "Let's adjourn the meeting temporarily~"

 Immediately stood up and entered the lounge next to him.

Brother Huang Delu immediately got up and followed him, not forgetting to ask: "Father, are you okay?"

 Huang Yunzhong did not respond, but staggered into the door of the lounge.

 Even the last trace of his back was a bit stooped.

However, the moment the door closed, the originally ill Huang Yunzhong's temperament suddenly changed, and he straightened up as if nothing was wrong.

 Huang Delu and Huang Debiao were not surprised. They had known that Huang Yunzhong was faking it.

 Huang Yunzhong went over, sat on the sofa, and coughed lightly: "Then we will act as planned."

 Huang Debiao immediately responded and went out from the other door with a serious expression.

This lounge is next to the conference room, and there is a corridor from here.

 Huang Debiao’s steps were hurried and his eyes were extremely firm.

Huang Delu frowned and whispered: "Dad, do you have to go to this step?"

 Huang Yunzhong raised his eyelids, a hint of evil flashed in his eyes: "Do you think you are cruel as a father?"

 Huang Delu quickly lowered his head: "My son doesn't dare."

Huang Yunzhong snorted: "Of course you don't dare~ Who am I doing this for?"

  Huang Delu remained silent.

Huang Yunzhong sighed: "If this disease had not been detected, there would have been no need to be so anxious. When you and De Biao slowly accumulate popularity and strength, I will hand over the burden to you smoothly in the future. But now... I can't wait any longer... "At this point, Huang Yunchong suddenly coughed violently.

Huang Delu said hurriedly: "Dad, please stop talking and drink some water to suppress it."

 Huang Yunzhong coughed and waved his hands, took out the white handkerchief in his pocket and covered his mouth. After coughing, he was left with **** phlegm.

 It turns out that not long ago, Huang Yunzhong was diagnosed with lung cancer, and the situation was not optimistic.

 According to the doctor's estimate, he will not survive for more than a year.

 He was outside just now. He was pretending to be weak, but his illness was real.

 At present, he is not that weak yet.

 Without this disease, I would not have developed to where I am now.

 Huang Yunzhong already knew about it as early as when the elders of the Huang family started to contact Aozhou.

If he contacts Du Fei at this time, it will be very simple to join forces to kill the situation. But Huang Yunzhong didn't do that. Instead, he just let it go, even added fuel to the flames, and was hospitalized to give the other party a chance.

 Huang Yunzhong calmed down and glanced at the door Huang Debiao had just left: "Delu, this is all I, a father, can do to help you. You know De Biao's temperament better than I do. You should take good care of him in the future."

 Huang Delu nodded quickly.

Huang Yunzhong said again: "After this time, I will help you get rid of these old guys, and you must promote more young people in the family."

“Father, I know.” Huang Delu agreed softly.

Huang Yunzhong sighed: "It's fate! They are all from the same family and have the same surname. If not... we wouldn't have ended up like this."

Huang Delu explained: "Father, don't say that. You gave them the chance, but they had to go to the road of death. If they don't collude with foreigners and are unfavorable to their desires, who can touch them?"

Huang Yunzhong was silent, waited for a moment and said: "There won't be any problems on the front line, right?"

Huang Delu said: "Don't worry, I'm ready and have deployed two lines of defense."

Huang Yunzhong said with mixed emotions: "At the beginning, in order to attack these two counties, we lost more than two thousand people. Unexpectedly... we had to give it away in vain. I am sorry for those brothers who sacrificed~"

 Huang Delu was silent, not knowing how to persuade him.

Acting must be performed in full, and if there is no crime that can crush people, how can we completely eliminate the influence of the veteran faction?

 Two county bases, thousands of people lost, plus the economic losses caused by offending Kuching and stopping the route... Only in this way can we gather a force that is enough to crush the veteran faction.

Only in this way can Huang Yunzhong rest assured and hand over power to Huang Delu.

 …

 The meeting was suspended for more than half an hour.

This is exactly the time Huang Yunzhong gave them to digest and think about the current situation.

Some smart people immediately understood that the veteran faction had completely failed this time, and the only way to appease Kuching was to rely on the Huang family and his sons.

 Including the elders of the Huang family, when they heard the news that two counties had been lost, they also knew that the situation was over.

 Back to the conference room again.

 Huang Yunzhong stopped beating around the bush. Now that the plan has reached this point, it can be said that the overall situation has been decided.

He glanced at the people present: "Dear colleagues, for the current plan, we must seek Kuching's understanding as soon as possible..."

 No one said anything except the elders of the Huang family who had complicated expressions.

 How to seek understanding from Kuching? How to understand? There must be a price to pay.

 They are those costs.

The old man sitting next to Huang Yunzhong, who was closest to him, stared at Huang Yunzhong with cloudy eyes and slowly shook his head. After thinking about the cause and effect, he stood up and said: "Yunzhong! Hello!" He also extended his thumb and said, "I I really didn’t expect you to be so..." His mouth seemed to be about to say 'harsh', but the words changed again: "You are so tall! You can play with us old guys at your fingertips. ."

 Huang Yunzhong looked at the old man expressionlessly and did not respond.

After a moment, the old man was defeated when he looked at him. He shook his head and smiled bitterly: "That's all, that's all~ I, the Huang family, can have someone like you at the helm, we old immortals can rest assured."

 Huang Yunzhong pursed his lips, but still did not speak.

 The old man also understood what was going on, so he said nothing more and walked out.

 He knew that they had completely lost this time, so instead of continuing to struggle, it was better to stay dignified.

However, he has not yet realized the seriousness of the matter.

Still, if Huang Yunzhong is healthy, it can tolerate them, but his body will not last long, and he must not allow these factors that may threaten Huang Delu to continue exist.

 The seniority of these elders is very high. He is still barely there now. If Huang Delu had been replaced, he would have been a grandson.

As a result, when the old man opened the door, he saw Huang Debiao with a fierce look on his face.

 Behind Huang Debiao were heavily armed military police.

The old man was stunned, his heart sank, and shouted: "Huang Debiao, what are you doing!"

Huang Debiao grinned and sneered: "What are you doing? Kill your relatives for the sake of justice! Collude with foreigners, eat inside and outside, catch me!"

Before the old man could react, he was caught by two strong soldiers.

He was too old and weak to break free. He was controlled by just one encounter.

 Huang Debiao didn’t stop, he led people directly into the door and captured all the people in the conference room who belonged to the veteran faction.

These people are not just from the Huang family, but also several other people who hold the same position.

 In the blink of an eye, more than half of the people in the conference room were gone.

Huang Yunzhong looked at the remaining people and said calmly: "Okay, now let's talk about how to deal with the aftermath~"

 …

 That evening, a small plane took off from Surabaya and landed at Kuching Airport.

It was already past nine o'clock at night when Huang Delu got off the plane.

The airport is not deserted. As the starting point for two routes to Eastern Europe and the Middle East, this airport still has fully loaded transport planes taking off in the middle of the night.

Huang Delu got off the small plane and couldn't help but stop and watch for a few seconds. Then he took a deep breath, followed the receptionist, quickly left the airport, and got into the car outside.

As an old acquaintance, although there were some problems in the relationship, Du Fei did not embarrass Huang Delu and arranged a high-level residence, but did not agree to Huang Delu's request to meet Du Fei overnight.

This shows Du Fei's attitude towards them, which makes Huang Delu a little disappointed.

  Huang Delu didn’t see Du Fei until breakfast the next day.

"Old Huang, sit down quickly. We haven't seen each other for a while." Du Fei immediately laughed when he saw Huang Delu, as if there was nothing dirty between the two parties: "You haven't had breakfast, why don't we have a bite together?"

Dufey is very casual, like meeting old friends again.

Huang Delu, however, did not dare to neglect, and immediately said: "Leader Du, I~I am here today to plead guilty to you!" As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes, and he knelt down on one knee in front of Du Fei.

Du Fei quickly supported him: "Hey! Lao Huang, what are you doing?"

Huang Delu said with a sad face: "With things like this, I...I...I really don't know how to face you."

 Immediately, I said the words I had prepared in advance.

Du Fei was shocked when he heard that Huang Yunzhong was seriously ill, and then he suddenly realized.

Although Kuching had some intelligence channels in East Java and already knew the general situation there, there were always some things that didn't make sense.

Now that we know that Huang Yunzhong has physical problems, many things make sense.

Du Fei's thoughts were racing, and he had a rough outline of the whole thing in his mind.

Huang Delu naturally concealed the fact that his father and his son were deliberately conniving with the elders. He only said that it was because of Huang Yunzhong's illness that someone took advantage of him and that was the reason he did this.

　　Du Fei was dubious about what he said.

 But that is not important. What is important is that now the pro-Austrian veterans in East Java have been wiped out.

Coupled with Huang Yunzhong's physical condition, the subsequent brothers Huang Delu and Huang Debiao must and can only rely on Du Fei's support if they want to successfully inherit power.
