Chapter 1299 I am kind-hearted
Long Jiang, the helmsman of the Long family.
He is in his fifties, tall and strong, and full of energy.
At this age, it’s not about physical strength, it’s about wisdom and experience.
Especially as the helmsman of the entire force, both his skills and scheming have reached perfection.
“We’re going to be evicted.”
The deep voice startled more than a dozen core members below.
Expulsion, what a terrible word.
How to evict someone is more terrifying than the eviction itself!
"Chief, is there no room for maneuver?"
The people below had never expected this outcome. Once they accepted the expulsion, everything they had here would collapse.
Who is willing?
"Our value is not as great as Lei Zhen's, so there is no room for maneuver," Long Jiang said.
There was a strong sense of helplessness in his eyes. He had never expected things to come to this point. At the beginning, it was the Long family that issued ten consecutive clan orders, asking him to buy Lei Zhen at the bottom.
However, I didn't expect that the other party's influence was so great and his methods were so vicious and sophisticated.
In the end, were they copying Lei Zhen's bottom line, or was Lei Zhen copying their bottom line?
The good people present also said that many people in important positions have been exposed.
Some things are only known to certain circles. This is an unspoken rule. Once it is exposed, no one can do anything about it, let alone it was exposed by Lei Zhen.
It can't be suppressed and there's no way to talk about it.
"If we drive them out, we'll be completely finished. The world outside is under the rule of thunder and lightning. If we take a step forward, I'm afraid a thousand cannons will be fired at us."
"Chief, we must not accept expulsion, otherwise everyone will die."
"We're not bad either. If that doesn't work out, then..."
They all knew that the outside world was a world of thunder and lightning, and expulsion was just a cover. As long as they went out, they would definitely be killed. It was not an exaggeration to say that thousands of cannons would be fired at the same time.
Even ten thousand cannons are not enough, and various rockets, sniper rifles, etc. must be added.
"There's no room for maneuver. The think tank unanimously passed, and the higher-ups also talked to me. This is the best outcome." Long Jiang took a deep breath and said, "You can disagree, but that would mean chaos, and that's not what I want to see. After all, this is our East!"
Have a broad vision and a broad mind.
No matter what, this is our common East. If we don't accept it, there will be chaos. Lei Zhen will then inevitably go on a killing spree, and the two sides will engage in a bloody fight on multiple levels.
"Then what should we do? This was asked by our inner clan. They issued ten clan orders in a row. Now that things have turned out like this, what will they say?" someone asked indignantly.
"I can't get in touch with him. Lei Zhen has closed the mountain." Long Jiang said.
The mountain was indeed closed, and the pigeons could neither fly in nor out. Lei Zhen had long ago cut off all contact between the Long family and the outside world, and he would not allow the two sides to communicate.
"Then we can't just wait to die, right? We've never thought of provoking Lei Zhen. Can we talk to him?"
"Let's not even talk about whether he's willing to talk to us. If we talk to him, we'll already be at a disadvantage, and it will only put us in a more passive position."
"So what should we do now? Chief, don't the higher-ups remember what we've done?"
"If it really doesn't work, I can only mess it up, otherwise..."
"Shut up!"
Long Jiang shouted angrily and glared at the people below.
"I said, this is our East. The Long family is here to protect it, not to destroy it!"
"We finally have this peaceful and prosperous era. Do you want to be the sinner? Or do you want me to be the sinner, or do you want the Long family to be the sinner?"
Everyone should shut up, because there is really no way to do anything that will cause chaos.
It's not a question of whether you dare or not, but the clan rules are here. You dare not disobey anyone else's orders, let alone the orders of your ancestors, otherwise you will not even be able to enter the ancestral hall after death.
This is a real big family, and family rules are more important than anything else.
However, it has faded in most places nowadays, but it is still the case in the south. Once a major event occurs, just opening the four words "family tree" is enough to drive any member of the clan crazy, and they will try every means to get a death certificate.
"The higher-ups mean to return to the mountains," Long Jiang said. "That's the most respectable thing to do, so..."
"Chief, our surname is not Long, how can we follow you back?"
"That's right, the inner tribe may not be willing to accept us."
"I will definitely not accept it..."
The seven or eight core members below asked questions because their surname was not Long.
The Long family's power is not limited to those with the surname Long. There are also many families that have attached themselves to it. Now they are all under the Long family's power.
Those with the surname Long can go back, but it is almost impossible for those with other surnames.
Because that is the place where the Long family's inner clan resides, they will not admit outsiders. Once you enter, all kinds of problems will inevitably arise.
"I'm here." Long Jiang said solemnly, "Everyone here, regardless of whether their surname is Long or not, is a member of my Long family, so there's no need to worry too much."
"But... Chief, is there really no room for maneuver?"
"I also want some room to maneuver, but there really isn't any for now. I can only go back to the mountains first."
"This...I will follow the instructions of the clan leader!"
There wasn't much resistance, not because Longjiang accepted his fate, but because he had no other choice at the moment.
The above meaning is secondary. The main thing is that everyone in the think tank agrees with this plan. To be precise, this plan was proposed by the think tank and then approved by the higher-ups.
If you don't comply, a major purge will inevitably follow.
If they comply, there is still a possibility of coming back. After all, everything depends on human efforts. They have very deep roots here, and they will not lose everything if they are expelled.
…
The Long family was expelled without causing any major disturbance.
This made the higher-ups feel relieved, and also made Lei Zhen feel relieved. He was afraid that the Long family would fight him regardless of the consequences, which would be bad.
However, this situation was also expected. Unless the leader of the Long family is crazy, he will choose to resist.
As long as there is resistance, it is no longer counter-terrorism, but counter-insurgency!
"The show is about to begin. I don't believe the Dragon Emperor would accept you. One of you is from the inner tribe who has always stayed in the mountains, and the other is from a fringe tribe that is doing well outside. If you go back, who will take this position?"
Lei Zhen bit his cigarette, his face full of sinisterness.
Killing people is not a conspiracy. Only when you can bring down the Long family without killing people can it be called a conspiracy. Moreover, this conspiracy may seem like a conspiracy, but in fact it is an open conspiracy.
If the Dragon Emperor accepts these people, various power struggles will break out within the Long family, and it is still unknown who will be the winner. But no matter who wins in the end, the power of the Long family will be weakened to the greatest extent.
It would be even better if the Dragon Emperor did not accept these people. The Dragon family would be completely divided inside and outside, which would fundamentally remove the Dragon Emperor's confidence and break the closed loop of the Dragon family from top to bottom.
So no matter whether the Dragon Emperor accepts it or not, the Long family will be doomed to decline.
"I'm kindhearted, but my wife says I'm too cruel and doesn't understand my friends at all, hahahaha..."
Lei Zhen laughed heartily. He never thought he was cruel.
This is a case of mercy, as he can't worry too much about what happens next. He just needs to push the boat to the shore.
