"Up until now, there has been no movement in Tianhu City, and they didn't even ask! This is completely inconsistent with Liu Tianhu's way of doing things!"
"There's nothing inappropriate about it."
Li Tianshi glanced at Mu Aguo.
"He is planning to make a move directly!"
"A trick? City Lord, this is no joke. If he really tries a trick, what will we do?"
"What can we do? The soldiers will come and cover up the water and earth."
"But?"
"Nothing to worry about."
Li Tianshi's voice was not loud.
"We did go to their side to arrest people. But they did go to our side to hunt down our people. Strictly speaking, we are even! Besides, his people also came to my place to arrest people before.
, didn’t he have any explanation for that matter?”
"Having said that, this time, they suffered a lot of losses, and the police superintendent of a district was killed! This matter will definitely have a huge repercussions within them! To be honest, if this matter happened to us
Here, you will definitely not give up easily!"
"The person who shot the gun is not one of our people."
"But the ones who shot to stop them were our people. And just to say that they were not our people, we don't have any evidence, so they can't believe it easily."
"Isn't it obvious? Someone is instigating us again."
Li Tianshi's voice was not loud.
"If he, Liu Tianhu, can't tell the difference, then he can do whatever he wants."
Muaguo's face looked a little ugly.
"City Lord, we can't be like this. If this continues, the relationship between us will definitely become more and more tense. This is not a good thing! And this time, no matter where it goes, we are at fault first.
ah!"
"We have been dealing with them for so many years. How often do they do wrong things? Don't they just let it go in the end?"
"Why is it that if they do something wrong, everything is fine, but if we do something wrong, we have to have so many excuses? Who can always tolerate them?"
"City Lord, if you keep thinking this way, if you do this, I think you have to make another preparation?"
"What preparation?"
"Prepare for war! If we don't win this battle, we will have to push our Tianshi City back to before liberation. All our efforts for so long will be in vain! Just be mentally prepared!"
Mu Aguo's words directly spoke to the depths of Li Tianshi's heart.
He frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
He knew that what Muaguo said was true, and he pondered for a long time.
"Two things. The first thing is to find out the person who actually shot the gun. This person is the most hateful! The second thing is that you bring a generous gift and go to Tianhu City in person! Make things right.
Please explain, and express my condolences to all the dead and injured! Please apologize!"
When Mu Aguo saw what Li Tianshi said, he finally felt relieved.
"I understand, City Lord, I'll go right away! But there's something else going on here!"
"what's up?"
"What should Chen Lei do?"
"Chen Lei? When all the districts were at a standstill, he was the first to complete his regional mission and wipe out the entire sickle. Naturally, he needs to be commended. How do you deal with it?"
"But if we want to praise them and Tianhu City, it will inevitably cause some trouble! What do you want Tianhu City to think?"
"But if you don't commend me, what do you want our brothers to think?"
Li Tianshi's voice was not loud.
"He really risked his life and killed and injured so many brothers, and then he completely wiped out the sickle! Do we still want to hold him accountable now? How hurtful is this?"
"And if we do this, doesn't it also give other overlords in our territory an opportunity to take advantage of? In the future, if they can't hold it anymore, they will run to the Tianhu City area, and when they are done, they will run to our side to fight guerrillas
! Is this place still intact inside and outside? Can Tianhu City be allowed to become the protective umbrella of these overlords? "
Li Tianshi's attitude was very firm.
"I think we must strongly commend Chen Lei, and at the same time show an attitude to all the overlords. That is, if they dare to do evil in our place, no matter where they hide or run in the future, we will definitely catch them all! This is for them.
It’s a shock to say the least!”
Muaguo frowned and wanted to refute, but didn't know how to refute.
Things are indeed a bit difficult to handle. It is not good to commend them, and it is not good to not commend them.
Li Tianshi also understood what Mu Aguo meant.
"You go and deal with your affairs first, and I'll think about what to do with the rest!"
Mu Aguo left. Li Nan, the Chief Superintendent of Tianshi City, came in.
Li Nan is Li Tianshi's absolute direct descendant. In terms of seniority, he can be regarded as Li Tianshi's uncle. When Li Tianshi was not the city lord, he followed Li Tianshi around! So the relationship between the two is very deep!
Seeing Li Nan enter the house, Li Tianshi stood up and walked to Li Nan in person, his face full of concern and condolences.
"Uncle Nan, why are you here? If you have anything to do, just ask someone to say hello!"
We are all our own people, there is no need to hide or use any official language.
"I have to do this myself."
"What happened?"
Li Nan smiled.
"City Lord, to be honest, I'm here this time because of Chen Lei's affairs."
Everyone in Tianshi City knows that the relationship between Chen Lei and Li Nan is excellent. The reason why Chen Lei is where he is today is because of Li Nan's promotion.
Now that Chen Lei has caused such a big thing, it is reasonable for Li Nan to come to plead for mercy. When Li Tianshi heard this, he immediately spoke.
"Now that things have developed into this situation, we are in a dilemma."
"But for the sake of the overall situation, I think you still have to deal with him!"
Hearing what Li Nan said, Li Tianshi was immediately confused.
"Uncle Nan, what you said is that I won't deal with him. He has merit!"
"This is not a matter of merit or demerit, but if you don't deal with him, there will be no way to explain to Tianhu City. According to Liu Tianhu's character, he will definitely not let it go! This matter may bring disaster to the country and the people! So it must be
To be dealt with.”
"But!"
"It's nothing, just listen to me."
Li Nan's voice was not loud.
"No matter how reasonable this matter is, we have no reason to do so! There is no doubt about it!"
"The most important thing is that there is still a gap between us and Tianhu City in terms of pure military strength. Even if we are much better than before, we are still at a disadvantage compared to Tianhu City!
"
"Besides, you are not fully prepared for war. If a fight breaks out at this time, it will have a huge impact on us!"
"So for you now, the most important thing is to hide your strength and bide your time! According to the current development speed, you work hard to prepare for war. In less than three years, we will definitely be on par with Tianhu City. In less than five years, we will definitely be able to catch up and surpass
Tianhu City. In less than eight years, we will have a complete advantage over Tianhu City! If that time comes, you will have to be fully prepared before you can really consider starting a war! Don't move now.
!It’s impossible to gamble on the national destiny of the entire Tianshi City because of one Chen Lei, right?”
Li Nan's words were very true, and Chen Lei couldn't argue with every word.
"My only expectation now, of course, is an expectation, not a requirement. That is to keep this child alive!"
"He has been by my side since he was a teenager. He is loyal to me. He has blocked bullets for me and saved my life!"
Li Nan was also older. As he spoke, his eye circles became red and he kept shaking his head.
"I have been childless for so many years, and this child is just like my son. I have really devoted a lot to him."
"He must have done something wrong this time and caused a big trouble, but I believe he will not lie to me. There must be other people here who are causing trouble and actually shot and killed the deputy superintendent of the Tianhu City Police Security Bureau.
, they are not from Chen Lei and the others!"
"It is precisely because of this that I can come to you to plead for mercy. But if it was really Chen Lei who did this, I would have no shame to come to you to plead for mercy. He is also an adult and he has brought it upon himself!"
Li Tianshi helped Li Nan sit down. He was very moved in his heart.
He knew Li Nan's feelings for Chen Lei, he said so, but it was impossible not to feel pain in his heart.
"Uncle Nan, don't worry, I understand in my heart and I know how to do this..."
The next day, in Liu Tianhu's office in the Tianhu City Lord's Mansion, he stared at Mu Aguo.
"It's over?"
"Yes, we can assure you that the person who fired the shot was not one of ours, but someone was secretly instigating it! Of course, we are not shirking responsibility. Regarding the issue of compensation, if you are not satisfied, just speak up!"
Liu Tianhu tapped the table gently.
"Can compensation buy the lives of my brothers in Tianhu City?"
"This is definitely not possible."
"Then what's the use of talking about compensation with me? Well, you tell me the price of human life in your Tiens City, and I'll see how much I can buy! I'll buy some."
Muaguo was extremely embarrassed.
"City Lord, we are not right about this, but..."
"There's nothing wrong with it. I, Liu Tianhu, only look at the process, not the results. You can think about this matter, but you must do three things!"
