Chapter Fifty-Eight: Disaster Strikes When You Are Most Defenseless
Xu Huan said: "In the millennial change, our tribe has nothing to lose. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ infoThis is not surprising, because we basically don't ask about the rivers and lakes, and we only want to guard against the Wang family. But we soon realized a very serious fact - the Wulin League is gone.
"The Wulin League is gone, the umbrella is gone, and the no-nothing order has become a dead letter. After a period of time, the impact of the millennial change gradually appeared: after the collapse of the Wulin League, the order it laid down was gone, the three famous sects were wise and self-protective, and the nine-rate sect was a big fish eating small fish and small fish eating shrimp, and the whole rivers and lakes blew a bloody wind, and returned to the jungle era overnight, in order to calm the turbulent situation, the Wuyi Society formulated three chapters of a simple and crude covenant, but there are many loopholes in this covenant to drill.
"We anticipated the changes in the rivers and lakes earlier than others, and this is also what we are worried about, without the suppression of the Martial Arts League, in this era of lawlessness, will the Wang family make a comeback?
Therefore, during that time, everyone in the tribe maintained a high degree of vigilance, and everyone was full of spirit and was always ready to resist the invasion of the Wang family. β
Xie Qin's heart lifted, but Xu Huan's next words made him deflated.
βhowever, nothing happened. Wang Hongjie still doesn't deal with Wang Hongjie and Wang Hongjun, and the academic faction and the clan faction are still leaning against each other, as if they don't realize that now is the perfect time for revenge, so more than ten years have passed, and nothing has happened.
Gradually, many people in the tribe relaxed, thinking that the Wang family really had no idea, and most of the main forces of the tribe who were originally stationed around the old house of the Hu family in Zhangzhou withdrew, and the spies also relaxed their vigilance and neglected their duties, so that they did not notice the changes in the situation within the Wang family. β
"What changes?" Sechin asked.
Xu Huan said: "The academic faction can't suppress the clan faction, and it is gradually at a disadvantage. β
"Why is this?" Xie Qin Daqi, "Isn't the academic school backed by Wang Hongjie?"
"That's true," Xu Huan nodded slightly, "However, putting aside the factors of the struggle for power within the Wang family, the struggle between the academic faction and the clan faction is essentially a confrontation between the academic faction and the social faction, but after a long time, the academic faction has theoretical knowledge, and the weakness of lack of experience is exposed.
"On the other hand, although the academic qualifications of the clan faction are not as good as those of the academic faction, the people in the faction have been involved in the Wang family's business since their early years, and they have been in the society for many years.
"Among the subordinate families of the Wang family, there are a large number of people who have been looking forward to the wind for a long time, and they have a keen sense of smell of the situation, and after noticing this change, some families have fallen to the clan faction, so the power of the clan faction has further expanded, and the academic faction has been unable to maintain the original balance of power. In order to save the situation, Wang Hongjie came up with a way. β
Xie Qin was stunned for a moment: "Could it be revenge?"
Xu Huan was also stunned for a moment, and praised: "Brother Qin, your senses are very keen." β
Xie Qin shook his head: "I guessed. β
Xu Huan said: "Anyway, you are right, it is revenge." In fact, Wang Hongjie didn't really want revenge, but used revenge as an excuse to order his second and third brothers, so as to achieve the goal of controlling the clan faction. Although more than half a century has passed since the Decree, revenge has gradually changed from an action to a slogan, but it is still the Wang family...... How to put it, a kind of main theme. Now that Wang Hongjie is playing the banner of revenge, Wang Hongcai and Wang Hongjun cannot refuse. β
Xie Qin was puzzled when he heard this, and said in surprise: "Isn't revenge the top priority in the rivers and lakes? How can it still be used as a cover for seizing power?"
Xu Huan said: "It is precisely because it is the top priority that it can become a cover. β
β...... How do you say that?" Xie Qin looked puzzled.
Xu Huan said: "In fact, since the millennial change, the rivers and lakes have been out of order, and the pure 'two retributions' - retribution and revenge do not exist, and interests are the top priority, especially for a composite force like the Wang family. However, just as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Zhou Dynasty declined, the banner of respecting the king could be responded to by the world, although the rivers and lakes collapsed, the 'second report' can still be used as a gimmick to gather people's hearts. There are many elderly people in the Wang family's subordinate families who are determined to take revenge, and these people are very powerful in the Wufeng Group. Wang Hongjie saw this precisely because of this, so he used revenge as a cover. β
Xie Qin was silent, this Wang Hongjie's eyes were a little vicious.
Xu Huan said again: "Sure enough, when Wang Hongjie brought revenge again, those older generations immediately expressed strong support, many of them were clansmen, Wang Hongcai and Wang Hongjun knew that they were put together by the eldest brother, but they had no choice but to agree, the Wang family twisted into a rope for the first time since this generation came to power in order to take revenge."
After Wang Hongjie successfully grasped the real power, he immediately began to prepare for the great cause of revenge, mobilizing a large number of manpower and funds from within the company, mainly from the clan faction, and turning the Wufeng Group into a high-speed machine. At the beginning of April, he concealed all the eyes and ears of his tribe in Tailian and marched south. β
"But," Tang Ruoruo said suspiciously, "even if the revenge succeeds, uh, that, I don't mean anything else," she waved her hand again and again, "I mean, if the revenge is successful, the academic faction and the clan faction will still return to the previous state of struggle, what is the use of this?"
Xu Huan said: "Of course it works, Wang Hongjie intends to take the opportunity of revenge to weaken the clan faction." β
Tang Ruoruo asked again: "How to weaken it?"
Xu Huan said: "Theoretically speaking, if the Wang family and the tribe are on the right track, they will definitely lose a lot of manpower. β
Tang Ruoruo asked again: "So what?"
"Ah......h
Xu Huan said: "Therefore, the army organized by Wang Hongjie is mainly composed of clan factions. β
"Huh?" Tang Ruoruo was stunned.
Sure enough, Xie Qinxin said that Wang Hongjie's calculation is really a perfect interpretation of his deep scheming.
Xu Huan said: "In this way, even if you merge with the clan, it will be the people of the clan who die." It is conceivable that Wang Hongjie wants to have an unprecedented fire with the clan, the greater the scale and intensity, the better, the more people die, the happier he is, and it would be better if all the diehard revengers of the clan faction died. β
"Oh my God......" Tang Ruoruo gasped, "He's too ruthless, isn't he......?"
Xu Huan said: "If Wang Hongjie is not ruthless, he will not be able to sit firmly as the head of the family." β
This is indeed the case, and the crowd is silent.
And so, a catastrophe struck. Xu Huan's voice suddenly deepened.
β...... On the night of Qingming in Zhangzhou, Wang Yang did not have a door. β
Old Man Zu let out a faint sigh.
"What are you talking about?" said Sechin, looking confused.
"Rainy Night's Tribulation. Xu Huan sighed softly.
Seeing that the two of them were talking so mysteriously, Xie Qin had a bad premonition in his heart, and then thinking of the "Jinghu Gate" that Old Man Zu had just said, the bad premonition suddenly became more and more intense.
"What happened?" he asked Xu Huan.
Xu Huan said: "Wang Hongjie led his troops to bypass the Xu, Yu, and Qi families, and directly raided the old house of the Hu family in Zhangzhou. At that time, there were only a small number of men and horses in the old mansion, although they fought bravely, but they were defeated by many of the Wang family, and these people finally fought to their deaths.
Seeing this dismal result, Wang Hongjie was disappointed, but it was difficult to ride a tiger, so he could only wash the old house in blood, killing dozens of people from the Hu family, and the little son Hu Yuning was only spared. β
Although he said it succinctly, Xie Qin once again smelled blood. Now he understands why Xu Huan asked Hu Yuning to go to sleep before he started speaking, this is to break him away.
Xu Huan said: "It was April 5, 2013, and it was raining heavily, so the rivers and lakes also called it 'Rainy Night Disaster', of course, there is also the saying of the old-timers - 'Zhangzhou Qingming Night, Wang Yang has no Humen'." But in this incident, Wang Hongjie was seriously injured and became a vegetative state. β
"Seriously wounded, could it be his brother's hand?" asked Sechin tentatively.
"It's not. Xu Huan shook his head, "Although Wang Hongcai and Wang Hongjun know Wang Hongjie's plan, they have nothing to do, because if they start rashly, they will become the target of everyone." β
"Then ......," Xie Qin couldn't figure out.
"It's me. β
Qi Bu said.
At that moment, the air in the hall seemed to be still, and everyone looked at Qi Buji fixedly, revealing an expression of disbelief.
Qi Buer fell silent after speaking, obviously not wanting to talk more.
But Wang Hongjie's plan was a success, but in a way he didn't expect. Xu Huan bypassed the topic.
Since Qi Buer didn't want to say it, Xie Qin didn't ask any questions, and then asked, "How do you say it?"
"After Wang Hongjie was seriously injured, the Wang family was in chaos, at this time, the main force of the tribe came from the suburbs and killed the Wang family from the rear, they were caught off guard, the formation was in chaos, and the losses were heavy. The rest of the people hurriedly protected the unconscious Wang Hongjie and retreated. Wang Hongjie returned to Dalian, never woke up again, and became a vegetative person. β
"Hmph, you deserve it. Tang Ruoruo said hatefully, "This is called evil retribution." β
Xie Qin nodded approvingly.
Xu Huan said: "After the 'Rainy Night Tribulation', the tribe recalled all the spies and punished them heavily, however, although the tribal negligence was the main reason for the occurrence of the Rainy Night Tribulation, it was also the reason why everyone relaxed their vigilance at that time. The three families learned from the pain, vowed to take care of the only heir of the Hu family, and the spies sent out in the future were full of spirit, and they no longer dared to be careless, my father investigated the reason for Wang Hongjie's sudden killing, and finally learned the inside story of the Wang family from the intelligence traffickers. And the entire tribe no longer believed that the Wang family would give up revenge, and remained vigilant all the time. β
