Chapter 367: Attack
Time passed bit by bit, and the news that Xiao Yunfei and the others had left through Ping'an City had already reached Pibo's ears.
Suddenly, Piper's face changed drastically, and a trace of intense uneasiness faintly grew in his heart.
Such a result was completely unexpected.
Having suffered such a blow, I'm afraid I won't be able to hide it for long at all, and with the character of other factions, I believe that they will soon come to him for trouble.
It's just that the matter has come to this point, Xiao Yunfei and the others have fled back to the Dark City, and even if he wants to carry out an operation, it is very difficult.
It is the headquarters of the Underground World Alliance, and even if the Morgan family is powerful and influential, it cannot threaten the Underground World Alliance.
Otherwise, the Underground World Alliance would have been subdued by the Morgan family a long time ago, and the current situation would not have happened.
Therefore, if we want to solve the current troubles, we must still find a way from the root.
Even if the situation is unfavorable to him, it is impossible to sit idly by, waiting for the other factions to attack, and when the time comes, wouldn't he have to hand over the position of patriarch?
You must know that having the position of patriarch means having the greatest authority, which can mobilize the unfathomable economic power of the Morgan family, and can make many masters work for themselves.
It's just that the current situation, no matter how Piper thinks about it, can't think of a good solution for the time being.
The only way to get George and the others back as soon as possible for a final discussion.
One person is short-witted, and three stinkers are worth Zhuge Liang, maybe the others can really come up with an effective solution for Piper?
As for whether the people of their own faction will betray?
Piper has no worries at all, and over the years, their interests have aligned, and they have been constantly fighting with other factions, and the grievances between each other are so deep that they simply cannot be easily resolved.
Therefore, as long as there is no complete defeat on their side, no one will betray.
Moore Manor, Backyard Hall.
Two hours later, all the high-ranking members of Piper's faction had arrived, and only Elder George, who was far away in Gron, was still on his way back.
The faces of all of them were extremely solemn, and it was clear that they already knew that the enemy had successfully fled South America and that they would never have a chance to turn the tide again.
For a while, the atmosphere in the backyard hall became extremely serious and depressing.
However, no one arrived, and no one was the first to speak.
In any case, George was the person in charge of the interception operation, and although it failed, his understanding of the situation must be the deepest.
Therefore, when George came back and learned about the specific situation, he could better discuss the countermeasures.
Before I knew it, more than an hour had passed, and the door of the hall was pushed open, and George walked in with a dusty face.
"Elder George is here, sit down. With a forced smile on his face, Piper got up to greet Elder George, pulling away from his side.
Elder George, who can be said to be one of the main tasks of Piper's faction, has always been Piper's right-hand man, and he is also the most trusted by Piab.
George was not polite, sat down directly, and said, "Now that the situation is grim, there is no need for us to waste time, let's start the meeting directly." ”
"Yes. ”
Piper nodded in agreement and said, "Presumably everyone has understood the current situation, we must come up with a countermeasure, otherwise we will be better off when Smith and them make trouble." ”
"Once I lose the position of patriarch, your interests will also be seriously damaged, even if Smith can accommodate you, the right to speak in the family in the future will be minimized. ”
"So, I put the ugly words in front of me in the hope that everyone can work together to get through the current difficulties. ”
"If you have any good advice, you don't have to keep it secret, just say it clearly. ”
Hearing this, everyone's faces were very heavy, and being able to make Piper say such words all showed that the situation in front of them had reached an unbearable point.
However, no one dares to take the lead easily, if the proposal can be passed, then it is good to say, if it cannot be recognized by everyone, it is yourself who will lose face in the end.
Another point is that at present, they are not sure that they will really be able to survive this catastrophe, and if they can't, they are still giving advice to Pibo, wouldn't they want to completely offend Smith and them?
In any case, they belong to the same family as Smith, and after thousands of years of inheritance, although the blood relationship is very weak, they are still relatives after all.
Leaving a glimmer of life in everything you do is the most correct choice.
"Are you really going to give up?" saw that everyone was silent, Piper's face changed slightly, and a flash of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he questioned aloud.
"Patriarch, it's not that we're willing to give up, but there's really no good way. ”
"Yes, we have been following the patriarch for many years, as long as there is a way, how can we hide it? Once the patriarch is down, our interests will be greatly damaged, and we are very unwilling to do so. ”
"Patriarch, you have always been our leader, we have absolute trust in you, you can directly say your own solution! ”
"Yes, patriarch, just say it. ”
“............”
In a moment, there was a burst of helpless voices, obviously unwilling to offend Piper easily, and they all adopted a friendly attitude.
I have to admit that their approach is definitely the most correct at present.
If Piper's plan is extremely feasible and can guarantee that Smith's attack will survive, they are willing to gamble with Pebble, even if there is only a two or three percent chance of success.
However, in the current situation, it is simply difficult to do this.
Even if they have a certain solution in mind, the success rate is very low, and they are naturally unwilling to take risks easily.
More importantly, what is hidden behind the enemy's ability to escape from South America so smoothly?
They simply don't dare to imagine it.
If this speculation is confirmed, Pibault's fate will be even more miserable, with little chance of surviving the catastrophe in front of him.
So, the factor that can really keep them supporting Pibo is still in Pibo himself.
Seeing such a scene, as the patriarch of the Morgan family, how could Piper not understand the minds of these people?
There couldn't help but flash a gray glow in his eyes, and finally his gaze fell on George's body, and said in a heavy tone: "Elder George, you haven't made a sound, there must be some good way, right?"
"Patriarch, it is true, but I'm afraid you won't accept it. George's face was embarrassed.
"You say. ”
Piper's face instantly showed a look of expectation.
"Now, the situation has reached this point, it is inevitable that Smith will take action, and several other factions have already united, and it is absolutely difficult for us to resist such a big mistake. George's face was pensive, and finally he slowly spoke: "So, instead of waiting for them to make trouble, it is better for us to take the initiative to back down." ”
In this way, we will definitely be able to retreat and advance, and stay in the green mountains without paying too much price. ”
"This ......"
Piper's face turned blue instantly, and he didn't expect that even George would only be able to propose such a solution.
If he does, I'm afraid his position as patriarch will be lost.
What's more critical is that after so many years of rivalry, once Smith is allowed to sit on the position of patriarch, I am afraid that he will continue to be suppressed, and at that time, the price paid will be even more serious.
Of course, there is also an advantage to this, that is, those who belong to the Piper faction only need to pay a small loss to be able to get out.
After all, Smith must also have his own considerations, and it is impossible for them to continue to kill after they take the initiative to retreat.
"Did you get any news?" asked Piper, looking at George in a positive tone.
"Yes. ”
George hesitated for a moment and said, "I got the news that the enemy had reached the outskirts of Gelong City, but was stopped by people within the family. ”
In the end, he turned to Heian City and took a plane back to the Dark City. ”
At the end, George gritted his teeth a little.
If it weren't for such an accident, he decided to be able to complete the task easily, how could he be in such a passive situation now?
Hearing this, Piper and the others suddenly looked happy, and asked excitedly, "Is there any evidence?"
You don't have to think about it, you also know that the person behind the ghost is Smith.
If there is enough evidence, just with the help of this matter, the situation can be reversed, and Smith can be suppressed in turn, and even more so, there is no problem in putting all the blame on Smith.
"No, their actions are very secretive, including in Heian City, they have not left any flaws. George's face was extremely bitter: "That's why I came up with this solution." ”
"Hey!"
Hearing this, Piper suddenly sighed heavily, and said helplessly: "Is there really no other solution?"
Obviously, Pibo was unwilling to give up his position as patriarch so easily.
He has been the patriarch for more than ten years, and he knows very well the importance of the position of patriarch, and the huge benefits that can be brought to himself, once he gives up, he will completely lose the foundation of the Morgan family.
"There's nothing I can do. George shook his head helplessly, and said, "If the patriarch has any good ideas, he can put them forward and discuss them, and if it is feasible, we don't have to take this last step." ”
"This ......"
Boom!
At that moment, the door to the hall was pushed open, and Smith and the rest of the faction walked in.
Looking at the atmosphere in the hall, the corners of his mouth slightly outlined a touch of pride: "There is no need for you to discuss, we have already understood the whole matter clearly, because of the mistake of Patriarch Pibo, the prestige of the family has been greatly damaged, and it has completely torn the skin with the Underground World Alliance, and I also ask Patriarch Pibo to give us a satisfactory explanation." ”
"Otherwise, we will have to ask the Supreme Elder to arbitrate!"
