Return of the Soldier King

Chapter 332 A Slim Chance of Survival

Mei Jianjun was also an official in Xin Ming District, so when he saw that Ma Luobing’s troops came to meddle in this affair, he was dissatisfied.

Even so, Mei Jianjun dared not say too much. After all, Ma Luobing was in charge of the army. Although he generally didn’t meddle in local affairs, he was not under local jurisdiction and he only followed military orders.

Therefore, even the district mayor or the party secretary of the district committee couldn’t make Ma Luobing do anything.

"Brother Ma, what are you doing here? If your troops fight with us, conflicts might arise between our men. If this thing gets out, we are going to be laughed at," Mei Jianjun said with embarrassment.

"Who is your Brother Ma? Don't get close to me! Have your leader come talk to me. Where is Zhang Desheng?"

Ma Luobing was clearly furious,.

"Director Zhang... He’s been attacked by these people. He’s still in this building, and we armed police are ready to rescue him, but as we were about to, your men showed up,” Mei Jianjun said, trying to surpress his anger.

"Leave here right now," shouted Ma Luobing in response.

Mei Jianjun's temper was generally good, but he could not endure this scolding, and he said, "Ma Luobing, I do not know what you are talking about! But we're here on the case. It's a matter for our police department, and you can’t meddle in it! Our director was taken by terrorists, and you are preventing us from handling the case. If I make a report about this, I'm afraid you'll be punished."

"You can do whatever you want!" Ma Luobing coldly said. "I don’t want to talk to you here. I received news from above that the police in Xin Ming District are colluding with gangs, and have surround a chief with guns. Unexpectedly, this is actually happening! I’m really very shocked! Captain Mei, are you ready to be charged for treason?"

Hearing this, Mei Jianjun suddenly immediately panicked. His face was as pale as a piece of paper.

"Ma Luobing, don't speak carelessly. There is no chief here, only terrorists! Besides, even if there was, it’s our job to get him out. It’s not your business."

Mei Jianjun was just an armed police captain, and he wasn’t actually sure if Ma Luobing’s words were true. If there really was a chief here, Mei Jianjun was finished.

"You have guns in your hands. If you were going to shoot and kill the chief, you expect us to just stand by and let it happen? I don't want to talk nonsense with you. Have your people disperse, and I will go get the chief!" Ma Luobing said.

Mei Jianjun was so angry that he was trembling all over, but he could only follow orders and make his men disperse, then Ma Luobing went straight into the building with his soldiers.

When Zhang Desheng saw a group of soldiers rush in, he shouted, “What’s going on?”

When Ma Luobing saw Lu Danyang was unharmed, he immediately ran over and said, "Chief, I am the company commander of the stationed troops in Xin Ming District, Ma Luobing. What instructions do you have for us?"

Chief?

Zhang Desheng looked at Lu Danyang in surprise.

Wasn't this middle-aged man the boss of this company? Was he the chief? It was impossible.

However, Zhang Desheng knew who Ma Luobing was and that he wouldn’t lie.

"Take all of these people out. I will interrogate them myself," Lu Danyang quietly said.

"Yes, sir."

As soon as Ma Luobing waved his hand, several soldiers rushed over to him. Without any words, they pressed Zhang Desheng to the ground, took out rope and tied him up.

"Ma Luobing, what do you mean? Why are you arresting me! I’m the director of the police station in Xin Ming District! How dare you arrest me? Ma Luobing, are you colluding with these criminals? How dare you do this to me! I’ll report this to my supervisors.”

"You’re accusing me of colluding with criminals? Zhang Desheng, watch your words!"

Ma Luobing up walked to Zhang Desheng and said, "Do you know who he is? You dare to say this to me?”

"No, I don't know who he is."

Zhang Desheng shook his head.

"He..."

Ma Luobing was about to speak when Lu Danyang stood up and walked over to Zhang Desheng. He said, "Director Zhang, let me introduce myself. My name is Lu Danyang. I am just a small chief of MSS. Obviously, I can’t compare to you.”

"MSS! Ministry of State Security!"

When Zhang Desheng heard this, he was so afraid that he felt like he would fall to the ground.

Zhang Desheng knew he had messed with a big shot. It was over.

Zhang Desheng was terrified, and even the policemen still lying on the ground trembled in fear.

Brother Artillery and the bullies did not know what MSS was, but when he saw that Zhang Desheng was scared, he grew nervous himself.

"Chief, I didn't know it was you! Otherwise, how dare I be so arrogant. This thing has nothing to do with me. I'm just a normal policeman, and I only came here because of a report I got... I didn't think you’d be here, too."

Although Zhang Desheng was terrified, he decided to lie to try to shift the blame away from himself.

"Aren't you the security backing these bullies?" Lu Danyang coldly said.

"Chief, I received that girl's report of trouble here, so I came to handle the situation. I don’t know these people."

Zhang Desheng knew Lu Danyang did not fully understand the situation, so he thought he had a slim chance of survival.
