Chapter 444: Dark clouds roll in, the atmosphere is gloomy
But now, countless gunshots rang out.
All of a sudden, all the wealthy people living nearby were frightened.
However, they all knew that it was a fight between societies and they would definitely not cause trouble for them.
At this time, Luo Tianhong was being carried to a safe place. Two kilometers away, their people had already gathered there. As long as they could break through, they would be able to escape safely.
However, just when they reached the side of the road, they saw dozens of people waiting for them on the opposite side.
Moreover, those people were waiting for them with weapons in hand, as if they knew they would pass by here.
"Haha, Luo Tianhong, huh? Huo Han's top general? I heard you're quite arrogant!"
Seeing Luo Tianhong and the others coming over, the other party did not take action immediately. Instead, he sat down at this time, lit a cigarette, and started to talk coolly. Seeing the other party being so pretentious, the brothers with Luo Tianhong were about to go up, but were stopped by Luo Tianhong.
"Boss, we'll stop them. Just leave as soon as possible. Don't worry about anything else."
"You'll have to pay for what you've done sooner or later. Anyway, as long as the boss can escape, what does it matter if we die?"
"During this time, thanks to the boss's care, the brothers all feel that they have chosen the right person by following you. You are our benefactor in this life and our boss. We will never allow anything to happen to you."
Even when facing dozens of opponents, none of the six people who followed Luo Tianhong chose to retreat.
Of course, this kind of gang fight is not the first time to happen in Hong Kong Island. It would be great if the other party would let you go if you really gave in.
Besides, tonight will be the time when Huo Han and Lian Haolong will completely fall out.
At this time, even if they admit defeat, they will be dealt with by the other party without hesitation.
Now that you are involved in this kind of thing, there is no room for retreat.
Looking at the brothers around him, Luo Tianhong felt moved.
I never thought that one day my brothers would be so nice to me.
At this moment, looking at these brothers, he knew that he could no longer drag them down.
However, there are still a lot of people on the opposite side.
Under normal circumstances, Luo Tianhong alone would be able to chop down all these people in front of him.
But now, Luo Tianhong has been shot.
". Qiangzi, put me down!"
Luo Tianhong said to the brother who was carrying him on his back, and as he spoke, he was preparing to get down.
But that brother actually carried him on his back, as if he didn't hear what he said.
"I f*cking told you to put me down. They're just some rotten fish and shrimp. Look, I can handle them all by myself... cough cough cough..." Luo Tianhong started coughing again while speaking.
Moreover, blood (Wang Haohao) also flowed out from the corners of his mouth.
If it were any other time, the people on the other side would be scared when they saw Luo Tianhong.
But now, after seeing that Luo Tianhong was seriously injured, they all moved towards this side.
Luo Tianhong was now seriously injured and no longer posed much of a threat to them. Almost everyone thought so. At Luo Tianhong's request, the younger brother finally let him go.
Among the uncles, some were still resentful and did not fully trust Huo Han, while some even supported Lian Haolong to some extent. Someone took advantage of the meeting to quietly convey a message to Lian Haolong, which included Huo Han's possible rebellious behavior.
The moment Lian Haolong received the information, his eyes flickered, his expression cold, but he didn't make any significant moves. Although Huo Han didn't directly witness all of this, his experience allowed him to discern some clues.
However, Huo Han did not directly expose all this. He knew that if he directly stated that he already knew about this situation, it would put himself in a passive position. Huo Han smiled faintly and continued to participate in the meeting's proceedings with a deep look in his eyes.
However, many present were dissatisfied with Lian Haolong as the leader. They believed that Lian Haolong was too conservative and not decisive enough in handling certain matters. Therefore, they had long been suspicious of him and were even secretly looking for a new leader.
Just as doubts and discussions were rampant in the meeting hall, a voice suddenly broke the deadlock.
A middle-aged man stood up, his eyes full of fire. He said, "I think we can change the faucet, but this new faucet must not be Huo Han!"
The moment these words were spoken, everyone was in an uproar. Lian Haolong and Huo Han also turned their attention to the middle-aged man. He was a senior member of the society, and a person with a certain status and prestige in the society.
Although his words were shocking, some people understood his intention.
Doing so would prevent Huo Han from taking control of power, while also appeasing those who were dissatisfied with Lian Haolong. Furthermore, this new leader would inevitably rely more on those who supported him, thus forming a relatively stable new power structure.
Huo Han and Lian Haolong exchanged a glance. They both knew that this fight had only just begun...
I firmly oppose this proposal! Luo Tianhong was the first to stand up.
Huo Han is no worse than us, and his influence is also formidable. Why do you insist on ostracizing him? As soon as Luo Tianhong finished speaking, Guo Ziheng continued, "Huo Han's contributions to us are obvious to all. Why can't he be the leader?"
The two people's objection did not calm the atmosphere, but made it more intense.
Everyone has their own stance, and it's not easy to ask them to give up.
Moreover, once the new leader is selected, it will mean huge benefits for everyone.
Huo Han stood up and said in a firm and powerful voice, "I also don't want to see our family split apart by fighting. I propose that we work on a peaceful transition plan."
Huo Han took a deep breath and said, "I propose that we give all of us five days. After five days, we will gather again and vote directly."
Five days passed in a flash. During these five days, everyone was busy, communicating and colluding in private to prepare for the battle for the leading position.
Several uncles and aunts also found Lian Haolong, hoping to get his support.
Lian Haolong has always been an important figure in the family, and his support is undoubtedly a great help to them.
Lian Haolong listened to their rhetoric and smiled faintly. He had seen through their thoughts. He gently put down his teacup and said to the people in front of him: This time, I'm afraid I really can't help you.
The uncle was stunned. He didn't expect Lian Haolong to refuse so directly.
Lian Haolong sighed and continued, "I understand why you're looking for me, and I wish I could help you. But I'm truly powerless to resist. This time, I can only sit back and wait and see what the final outcome will be."
This answer undoubtedly disappointed the uncles, but they had no other choice but to find other supporters as much as possible.
Each of them hopes to gain more benefits in this competition, but the reality is cruel. Everyone wants to stand at the top, but no one can be sure of the final outcome.
In these confrontations, Huo Han was like an outsider, watching quietly. He did not look for anyone, nor did he participate in any fights. He just waited alone at this moment for the results to be revealed.
Everyone was startled when they heard Lian Haolong's words. This man, who had always been so influential in the family, actually said such words. They thought Lian Haolong was joking because in their eyes, Lian Haolong would always be the one who could lead the family.
However, they don't know that the truth is far more complicated than they imagined. What they can access is only a part of it.
Although Lian Haolong's name was a powerful one within the family, the reality was harsh. Many of those around him now supported Huo Han. They believed Lian Haolong was the leader, able to influence family affairs, but in reality, he was nothing more than a puppet.
Lian Haolong himself was aware of this. He looked at the surprised faces of his uncles, smiled slightly, and said, "I know what you're going to say, but this is the truth. Although I'm the leader now, I can no longer influence the family's decisions."
Behind all of this, Huo Han's tactics were the real reason. He used them to make many people in the family become his supporters. Those people were all powerful figures in the family, and their opinions had a significant impact on the family.
...............
Huo Han didn't directly reveal his ambition, but his tactics had already shown everyone his strength. The uncles began to worry, fearing that their positions would be replaced in this struggle.
They thought five days was enough time for them to collude with external forces, but they didn't expect that Huo Han would wipe them all out. Huo Han not only controlled most of the family members, but also successfully influenced the external forces they could rely on.
............ 0
This made them panic and they began to doubt their choices. However, Huo Han seemed to be oblivious to their anxiety and just sat quietly in the corner, as calm as ever.
Five days finally passed, and everyone was looking forward to the outcome of the fight.
However, when that moment finally arrived, everyone was shocked by Huo Han. They discovered that the position they cared about had already been occupied by Huo Han. And that position was the head of the family.
Dark clouds rolled in and the atmosphere was gloomy.
The five days seemed to have turned into an endless torment.
