Chapter 620: Chapter 620: Guan Kun’s Concerns About the Current Situation

Ji Yang arrived at the workgroup’s location and saw that Guan Kun was already waiting there.

"Chief Ji, it seems you have significant influence within the Redstone Army and Le Qin’s forces. Now that they have suddenly started a rebellion and formed an army, what is your stance on this matter?"

Ji Yang knew that Guan Kun and his team would discover his connection with various factions, and he had no intention of hiding it; indeed, they had now come to confront him.

"Let me put it this way," Ji Yang began, "the managers of those construction firms under Le Qin are familiar with me and willing to listen to me. Additionally, after a battle with the Redstone Army, the Army split, and those from the Redstone Army side joined our projects and became regular construction teams; they still listen to me to some extent."

Ji Yang briefly explained his relationship with everyone involved.

Guan Kun said, "We have heard about these matters, but now, with the sudden support from various factions for them, can they still act according to the arrangements we made with them previously?"

Guan Kun and his team had some agreements and even some support dealings with Le Qin’s group. Now, with so many armies emerging, they were somewhat confused.

"You don’t need to worry about that," Ji Yang assured. "The anti-fraud initiative is a consensus among everyone. As far as I know, they plan to use this initiative as a pretext to confront the government forces."

Guan Kun nodded slightly, content that the direction had not changed.

After putting this matter aside, Guan Kun continued, "Now that they have received support from various factions, each faction is rapidly expanding. The force led by Gu Juetun has become very powerful. With the support of Bai Tou Country, they have acquired a large amount of heavy weaponry and Bai Tou Country’s personnel are training their troops. This is becoming an uncontrollable force."

"Rest assured," Ji Yang responded. "Although he is close to the West, his team members are not."

"Even so, what we know is that among his subordinates, there are many special forces from Bai Tou Country. If these people suddenly attack, it’s uncertain whether his team can withstand them."

Guan Kun clearly had little confidence in those team members.

Ji Yang also had his reservations about the capabilities of those team members.

However, Ji Yang was acutely aware that no matter how many special forces from Bai Tou Country there were, they would not be a match for him.

Everyone was analyzing the internal power dynamics, but Ji Yang was unconcerned. He knew that everything depended on himself.

Of course, Ji Yang wouldn’t share this view publicly.

"Other factions have also gained support and are becoming formidable. You might not know, but Gu Juetun’s armed forces now number fifteen thousand strong, all capable fighters. If they continue to grow, reaching twenty to thirty thousand wouldn’t be difficult."

"What would you like me to do?" Ji Yang asked.

"We need to know as much as possible about their intentions. If they grow stronger but are controlled by Western influences, it would not bode well for us."

"Understood, I’ll keep a close watch on their situation."

"This region of Mancity was originally one of the safest. Now, with their sudden actions, it has become unsafe."

"By the way, the higher-ups saw the situation here and wanted to dispatch some people to strengthen the leadership team. Has there been any news about that?" Ji Yang was curious about this development. There had been plans to dispatch some team members to aid his work, but now, suddenly, there was no news.

Guan Kun gave a wry smile and said, "I was just about to discuss this. We had discussed and confirmed the candidates for the team, some even parachuted in from the Capital City. Now, with the situation here having changed, the original decisions might be altered."

Ji Yang had purposely mentioned this; he was all too familiar with some people’s motives. Seeing that his arrival had calmed the situation, some individuals from the Capital City and the provincial city, keen on profiting, had eyed this location. Discussions at the provincial level about forming a leadership team were initially motivated by this. Now, with news of the changes here, those who had wanted to come were likely frightened off.

"This time I came," Guan Kun said, "the provincial committee leaders told me to inform you that the adjustments to your team here will need more time. You’ll need to put in more effort."

"That’s all I can do," replied Ji Yang indifferently.

Guan Kun added, "Although these various forces might separate from us, we still need to strengthen our work and maintain good relations with them as much as possible. We can’t let the West easily gain significant control here."

"The situation in Myanmar has changed drastically," Ji Yang noted. "Gu Juetun and his group are nearly ready and will soon raise their banner in resistance against the government forces."

"Yes, we know it’s not something you can decide," Guan Kun said. "But you still need to try to sway them to our side." He hadn’t expected such a massive change to occur so suddenly.
