Chapter 581 Borrow Strength

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Southwest Municipal Party Committee Office.

Lin Qingtian seemed to have aged tens of years in an instant as he collapsed onto his seat.

A ten-minute phone call seemed to have emptied his body of all his strength. His phone slipped uncontrollably from his hand and fell onto the floor. Lin Qingtian's gaze was somewhat dull as he stared blankly at the ceiling above. He was speechless.

Zhao Yingfei, the party secretary of Southwest City, had already left, but Xu Dongping was still in the conference room. His gaze at Lin Qingtian was filled with pity and sympathy.

To have a bad time?

These four words could no longer fully describe Lin Qingtian's situation. This was completely fate. The fate of the southwest faction was irresistible.

Twenty years later, The southwestern faction rose and fell, It could be said that the winds and clouds were fluctuating, The old leader, Xue Zhiguo, took the throne, The entire southwest faction was proud to be the supreme head of the empire. That five years could be said to be the happiest time for the southwest faction. Five years later, Xue Zhiguo was dismounted by former Prime Minister Li Donglei and failed to succeed in his re-election. The entire southwest faction fell from heaven to hell and spent another five years in anger and unease.

Ten years ago, Lin Qingtian successfully took over the throne, forming six divisions of the empire, weakening the position of the Cabinet and strengthening the centralization of power of the head of state. The royal faction fell into a disadvantageous position in the battles with the southwest faction. The royal faction quickly replaced the royal faction as the largest faction in the empire.

Lin Qingtian's movements were slow and resolute. Wang Zai was being weakened bit by bit. If it weren't for Li Donglei and the two standing committee giants supporting him, Wang Zai would have been suppressed even more severely.

That year, that five years, the southwest faction had never been at a disadvantage, and they had enjoyed the pleasant feeling of arrogance that they had not seen for a long time in the battles.

Then it was the last five years in twenty years.

Lin Qingtian was re-elected.

At a time when everyone thought that Lin Qingtian would continue to bring the southwest faction to glory, Chen Hualou and Ye Nianlun entered from Nanyue and Wuyue respectively, becoming giants.

Zou Rente, Guo Tianlong, Ye Nianlun , Chen Hua Lou.

In terms of the number of giants, the royal lineage was already on par with the southwest faction.

The entire empire instantly became turbulent.

These five years were the five most troublesome years for the southwest faction. The royal faction tried its best to recover the lost land and slowly accumulated strength. The suppression of the southwest faction had become more and more reluctant, and the status of the first faction had also been severely challenged.

The situation is not optimistic.

But no one could imagine that the southwestern faction would be in such a situation for the last two years of this five-year period.

People were panicking, internal instability, war descended, and the leaders almost split apart.

At this moment, the Angel Organization invaded and captured Lin Chaoyang alive.

If he wasn't in the middle of the game, no one could imagine how much influence Lin Chaoyang's role in the overall situation would have on the entire situation. Perhaps, the role he could play was minimal, but the significance that he represented was not trivial.

The stability of the southwest faction, the stability of the empire, and the development of the war were directly or indirectly related to Lin Chaoyang.

The deputy mayor of Southwest City had to be saved.

Otherwise, God knows what kind of variables will appear.

The helpless Lin Qingtian could only ask the Emperor for help.

Xu Dongping actually knew from the beginning, Lin Qingtian's 200 billion and Southwest Energy Group did not have any good intentions. The two gifts seemed to carry a lot of weight, But it's not good to eat, The emperor had been secretly called a thief these past few years. Once he accepted these two gifts, Lin Qingtian's reputation might be affected. However, the price paid by the royal family and the royal family was even greater. Everyone would suspect the royal family's intention to return to the empire, and even the royal family would have some doubts about the emperor.

The Emperor was naturally not stupid. He was relatively short of money, so he was not dazed by money. What he wanted was the interests of the royal family.

This is a completely satisfactory request.

Except for the southwest faction.

On that phone call, Lin Qingtian agreed to more than just a few prominent positions. He was equivalent to trading out the positions of the first faction and directly giving them to the Wang faction.

Two years later, Chen Fengyu took over from Chen Fengnan as the new head of the empire's military department. Originally, the southwest faction was determined to obtain this position. The Chen Clan had occupied the leading position of the military for more than 20 years in a row. The southwest faction had been unhappy with Chen Fengyan for a long time and had always wanted to take this key position.

Next time, taking advantage of Chen Fengnan's retirement, if he could place people from the southwest faction in that position, it would be equivalent to sending a signal to the outside world that the influence of the Chen Clan towards the empire and the military was still deeply rooted.

On the contrary, if the Chen Clan continued to occupy this position, it would undoubtedly prove that the southwest faction had lost its voice in the military. Many of the forces in the army would subconsciously move closer to the Chen Clan, allowing the Wang Clan's voice in the military to increase once again.

Chen Fengyu entered the military headquarters and Chen Fengyu entered the general staff.

Chen Fengyu was currently the Lieutenant General of the Empire and Commander of the Northeast Military Region. The position he had left behind would continue to be filled by people from the royal family. Without a doubt, this was the position of a top boss with equally great power.

Two years later, the core lineup of the Chen Clan had completely taken shape.

Imperial Prime Minister Chen Hualou, Military Minister Chen Fengyu, General Assembly Minister Chen Fengyu, and a Commander of the Northeast Military Region.

After many years, the Chen Clan could be said to have once again returned to their prominent position as the number one clan in the empire's military.

A slight move in one part may affect the whole situation.

This arrangement could even affect 20 years from now.

The Chen Clan was the mother clan of Wang Tongtian, the successor of the Wang Clan.

The core lineup of the Chen Clan could affect the empire for at least ten years.

Right now, Wang Tongtian is just a political rookie at the official level. What about ten years from now?

Not to mention the support of the Wang Clan, the Chen Clan alone was enough to pave the way for Wang Tongtian to reach the heavens.

Dongshan Province and Huangfu Jun were another important event.

At the same time, Lin Qingtian and Huangfu Jun entered the game in Dongshan Province two years later. That was equivalent to promising to give Dongshan Province to the royal family in two years, Moreover, two years later, Huangfu Jun entered the game, This was equivalent to widening the gap between Huangfu Jun and the other successors. He was different from Wang Tongtian, As the next successor to the royal family, The support he could get would be more direct, It was even more powerful. This promise allowed Wang Xie to obtain more than just the land of a province. It was also the layout for the next ten years. A province, apart from accommodating a member of the Policy Bureau, was also indispensable. Moreover, with the status of Dongshan Province, this place would definitely become another springboard for the high-ranking officials of the Wang Xie in the future.

After twenty years of planning, a phone call was made.

It was no exaggeration to say that the southwest faction had become lonely from today onwards.

Time slowly passed.

Lin Qingtian and Xu Dongping sat quietly in the meeting room. Neither of them spoke.

A knock suddenly sounded on the door.

The two giants in the conference room trembled almost at the same time.

Lin Qingtian looked at Xu Dongping with a blank expression.

This was definitely not a gaze that a head of state should have. He looked like a helpless old man who had lost his soul.

Xu Dongping's heart sank, but he didn't say anything else. He said to the door, "Please come in."

The door to the meeting room was pushed open.

Zhao Yingfei, secretary of the Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China, walked in with a large tray containing some food. He placed the tray on the meeting table and whispered, "Fuehrer, it's getting late for the meeting. Let's eat something first."

"What time is it?"

Lin Qingtian asked consciously. Then, he raised his wrist and was slightly stunned.

7:30 p.m.

More than two hours had passed since Wang Tianxiong hung up.

Lin Qingtian patted his head and laughed self-deprecatingly.

"When will the Emperor arrive?"

He asked, looking at the food on the table.

The four dishes and one soup on the tray were all Sichuan dishes that he and Xu Dongping liked very much. They were full of weight and smelled delicious, but he could not appetite them at all.

"We just confirmed the time. The Emperor will arrive at the airport in about two hours."

Zhao Yingfei said respectfully.

"Arrange the vehicle and pick it up when the time comes."

Lin Qingtian nodded and then said, "Forget it, I'll pick it up myself."

"Alright."

Zhao Yingfei's eyelids twitched as he lowered his head to conceal all his expressions.

"Any news about the terrorists?"

Lin Qingtian continued to ask. His negotiations with Raphael ended on the pretext of consideration.

Raphael gave Lin Qingtian ten hours to think about it. They didn't care if their whereabouts were exposed at all. The factory had buried a large amount of explosives and carried three detonators. This was truly fearless. Unless Lin Qingtian didn't care about Lin Chaoyang's life or death, or if they took the initiative to throw away the detonators, there was almost nothing that could threaten their safety.

"No news."

Zhao Yingfei shook his head and looked at Lin Qingtian's expression. He hesitated for a moment before continuing, "Fuehrer, don't worry too much. Mayor Lin will be fine. People with the status of emperor will definitely not take risks without confidence. Since he has agreed to take action, he will definitely rescue Mayor Lin."

"Hmph, who cares about that idiot's safety! ? If he hadn't been involved in the situation now, I would have let the terrorists kill him! Look what he said on the phone just now? War was already imminent, and he actually wanted to reach out and seek peace. It was simply a coward's act! As soon as they landed in the hands of the enemy, they would become soft bones and fear death. How could they have the slightest bit of Party membership? "!"

Lin Qingtian said angrily.

"Fuehrer, I believe that this is not Mayor Lin's change of heart after falling into the hands of the enemy. In fact, avoiding occupying peace is also the voice of some comrades in the party. I know Mayor Lin very well. He is not someone who will compromise with the enemy. It is very likely that he wants to avoid war because of his true thoughts."

Zhao Yingfei calmly said a good word for Lin Chaoyang, No matter what, Lin Qingtian was Lin Chaoyang's father. No father would easily give up his own son. As long as Lin Chaoyang could survive, he would definitely be his partner in the future. If he took the initiative to speak up for Lin Chaoyang now, he would most likely become a human being in the future.

Sure enough, Lin Qingtian's expression eased a lot. He sighed and shook his head, "Old Xu, eat something."

Xu Dongping nodded and walked over to pick up his chopsticks.

Zhao Yingfei greeted him and walked out of the meeting room. The incident in the auditorium had already spread throughout the country. The entire empire was in an uproar. The southwest city was in chaos. As the number one leader, he still had too many things to deal with.

Lin Qingtian watched his back disappear and raised his chopsticks. After a while, he put down his chopsticks, took out his phone and dialed a number.

The call went through quickly.

Lin Qingtian held his phone and said directly, "Snow Wind, how is your plan? Has the bodyguard beside you brought any good news?"

"Shentu has already gone to Lushan Mountain a few days ago. We can't contact her yet, but I believe she won't disappoint me."

Lin Fengxue's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Find a way to contact her! We need to act as soon as possible."

Lin Qingtian said coldly, "Tell Shentu that the country is willing to owe them a favor as long as she can get those people out of the mountain and complete the mission."

"Remember, you must kill all of Lin Xuanyuan and the others! At all costs!"

On the phone, Lin Fengxue remained silent for a while before calmly saying, "Don't worry, Fuehrer. Leave everything to me."

"I will send Wang Tianxiong to the United States in a while. You know what to do," Lin Qingtian said indifferently.

"Understood."

Lin Fengxue said and hung up the phone.

On the other side of Lin Qingtian, Xu Dongping's hand that was holding the chopsticks subconsciously tightened, his eyes filled with playfulness.

As the leader of the southwest faction, he knew a little about the complicated background of the bodyguard beside Lin Fengxue.

The call just now was very brief, but he knew what Lin Qingtian was planning.

Kill Lin Xuanyuan and the others.

This included Lin Xuanyuan, Qi Mingxuan, Chen Fengyu, Ye Liu-li and Huangfu Lingxi , as well as other super experts considering the royal family, including Wang Tianxiong.

This could be said to be all the high-end combat strength of the current Divine Continent Empire.

The value of these people was even more important than that of tens of thousands of troops.

But now, Lin Qingtian wanted to give up on them.

Once the empire lost this batch of super experts, it could be said to have suffered a heavy loss.

However, if the bodyguards beside Lin Fengxue could invite another group of people out of the mountain, they could make up for this loss.

Borrowing strength to fight.

In order to stabilize the situation of the southwest faction, Lin Fengxue had already started borrowing from the group of unborn people.

Xu Dongping silently ate the food and sighed imperceptibly.

What a troublesome autumn.
