Chapter 490 I know you are capable, but you also have to be careful
“This fight against Tenglong,” Huo Han continued, “is not only an opportunity for our Huo family, but also an opportunity for all of you uncles.
As long as we succeed, all those who follow Tenglong will be under our command. Then, we can not only enjoy the south of the Yangtze River, but even expand northward."
The uncles and aunts nodded one after another. Huo Han’s words touched their hearts. They all understood that this was a rare opportunity.
Huo Han smiled secretly in his heart. He knew that in this operation, his uncles would naturally try their best to use their own strength, and this was exactly what Huo Han wanted to see.
He didn't really want all of his uncles to return safely, especially those who disagreed with him. This operation was also a good opportunity for him to weaken the power of these uncles.
"Then let's start making a specific plan." Huo Han said.
On a moonlit night, Huo Han and Lian Haolong sat at the large mahogany table in the center of the Huo family's living room, discussing their action plan in depth.
There is a bronze incense burner on the table. It sways gently in the breeze, and thin smoke spreads from the incense burner, filling the entire hall, giving people a feeling of tranquility.
"This operation is very important," Huo Han looked at Lian Haolong and said, "Although you were once a member of the gang, the situation has changed now. I can let you return to the gang, but this operation must be successful."
Lian Haolong lowered his head slightly, his eyes firm. "Huo Han, I know you doubt me, but I just want to tell you that I need to settle the feud with Tenglong with my own hands." Huo Han pondered for a moment. "This time, I trust you completely. I hope you won't let me down."
Lian Haolong smiled slightly: "As long as you can give me a chance, I will prove myself."
In the following time, everyone began to discuss the specific action plan, and Huo Han also put forward some of his own opinions from time to time, secretly guiding his uncles and aunts to develop in the direction he wanted.
Huo Han nodded, stood up and walked out, leaving Lian Haolong alone. Looking at the thin smoke rising from the bronze incense burner, he felt complicated.
Within a few days, the news that Lian Haolong had returned to the Huo family gang was like a stone thrown into a lake, causing a thousand waves.
The gang members were discussing the matter. After all, Lian Haolong's previous behavior had made many people suspicious. However, no one dared to easily refute Huo Han's decision.
After some of the Huo family members learned that Lian Haolong had returned to the gang, they hid in the corner and whispered to each other.
"Have you heard? Lian Haolong is coming back!" a young gang member whispered.
Another person frowned and responded: "What is Huo Han thinking? He dared to let a traitor like Haolong come back."
"I don't know. I heard there's some big operation going on, and they need Lian Haolong."
Other gangs outside of the gang also made comments, but most gangs adopted a wait-and-see attitude and did not intervene too much.
After all, this is the internal affairs of the Huo family, and other gangs are not allowed to interfere. But every gang understands that the current movements of the Huo family are closely related to their 0.1 future.
Related.
The leader of a gang was with his confidant: "What is Huo Han thinking? He even dares to use Hao Long. Does he have some confidence in Teng Long?"
The confidant responded: "I don't know, but we must always pay attention to the Huo family's movements."
After Lian Haolong returned to the gang, his every move attracted scrutiny. He could no longer wander freely among the gang like before.
Huo Han sat in his private study, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, watching the raindrops dripping on the window outside the study, feeling a little heavy.
After his conversation with Lian Haolong, he still felt something was amiss. Although Lian Haolong and the Huo family had the intention to cooperate, Huo Han knew that people's hearts were unpredictable.
The door of the study was gently pushed open, and Lian Haolong walked in slowly, looking a little uncomfortable.
Huo Han put down his teacup and stared at him: "Lian Haolong, what exactly happened between you and Tenglong?"
Lian Haolong was silent for a moment and took a deep breath: "My feud with Tenglong is actually much more than what you know.
When I was still in the gang, Tam Lung had trouble with me many times, whether it was business or personal grudges, we fought over almost everything.
Huo Han raised his eyebrows: "Then why didn't you mention these things before?"
Lian Haolong sighed softly, "Because at that time, although Tenglong was dissatisfied, he never dared to act rashly due to the influence of the Huo family. I think that was his weakness. There's no need for you to know so much."
Huo Han said dissatisfiedly: "The Huo family is cooperating with you, you should tell me all this instead of hiding it."
Lian Haolong lowered his head slightly: "I admit that I did hide something, but I have no intention of betraying you. I just think that since Tenglong didn't dare to take action then, he won't act easily now."
Huo Han sneered, "The Tenglong of today is no longer the Tenglong of that time. His ambitions are growing. Why didn't you tell me earlier? This would have allowed us to be more fully prepared for him."
Lian Haolong sighed: "I really thought that Tenglong would not do anything to the Huo family, and I don't want the past to affect our cooperation."
Huo Han took a deep breath and tried to calm himself. "Lian Haolong, we are partners now. I hope you will be honest and open with me from now on and tell me everything."
Lian Haolong nodded: "I understand. I will tell you everything I know."
The two men discussed their plan for a while to ensure there were no misunderstandings. Although Huo Han still had some doubts about Lian Haolong, he knew that the most important thing now was to deal with Tenglong, and everything else could be put aside.
After Lian Haolong left the study, Huo Han was still sitting at the desk, looking thoughtful. He knew that Lian Haolong and Tenglong had a deep grudge.
Huo Han summoned all his uncles and aunts, and they sat in the spacious meeting room. The clamoring voices and the soft lighting formed a sharp contrast, and the air was filled with an oppressive atmosphere.
Huo Han glanced at the uncles and aunts sitting around him, then cleared his throat and began to talk about Lian Haolong's warning: "Lian Haolong has told me that Tenglong is not like before. He has a detailed plan and is fully prepared.
If we want to fight it, the cost will be very high. 227"
An uncle sneered, "Lian Haolong previously fought with Tenglong and left such a huge mess for his own personal gain. Now he's telling us all this. He's really in cahoots with them."
Another uncle nodded and said, "Lian Haolong should have told us these things earlier. He only came to report it now. I wonder what he is planning."
Huo Han frowned. He knew his uncles were suspicious and dissatisfied with Lian Haolong, but he didn't want to cause any disagreements within the family.
"I understand everyone's views on Lian Haolong, but we can't deny that he understands Tenglong in a way that we don't. The focus now is not on investigating Lian Haolong's past, but on how to face Tenglong."
An uncle interrupted and said, "Huo Han, we are not targeting you, but you have to understand that people like Lian Haolong are unreliable. The conflict between him and Tenglong is deep-rooted, and we cannot be implicated because of his personal hatred."
Huo Han shook his head: "You misunderstood, I don't completely trust Lian Haolong, but I believe what he said.
Tenglong's goal is definitely not just because of his personal vendetta against Lian Haolong. He has huge ambitions, and Lian Haolong is just the beginning. We could all become his target."
An uncle frowned: "So you mean, we have to confront Tenglong head-on now?"
Huo Han sighed. "I know this is a difficult decision, but if we don't fight back, Tenglong will only become more rampant. Now we have Lian Haolong as our trump card. I believe we should utilize his information and power."
The discussion in the meeting hall gradually subsided. After exchanging opinions, the uncles finally reached a consensus: the Huo family needed to unite and face the outside world with all their strength to meet Tenglong's challenge.
An uncle stood up and said, "Huo Han is right. We can't just sit there and wait for death. Now is the time to fight Tenglong with all our strength."
Another uncle added, "We all know that Lian Haolong and Tenglong have a deep hatred. His return is no accident. Since he is willing to help us, we should make full use of the information he holds."
Huo Han nodded, but deep down he was worried about Lian Haolong. He knew Lian Haolong was a proud man. Despite his past missteps within the gang, he still held a deep bond with his family. For his family, he was willing to sacrifice anything.
At the same time, Tenglong was also in his hall, discussing with his men about Lian Haolong's return to the Huo family.
"Lian Haolong, is this kid really back?" Tenglong frowned and stared at his men coldly.
"Yes, sir, the news has been confirmed. He has returned to the Huo family." A subordinate answered cautiously.
Tenglong stood up and walked to the window. Looking out at the night, his heart was filled with turmoil. "Lian Haolong, do you really think you can defeat me this time?"
He turned to his men and said, "Tell everyone, from now on, Lian Haolong is our primary target. No matter what the cost, we must get rid of him." The men showed fear on their faces. They all knew Tenglong's hatred for Lian Haolong, and now, Lian Haolong had become a thorn in Tenglong's side.
Back at the Huo family, Lian Haolong was formulating a strategy for the upcoming battle. Huo Han walked in. "Brother Lian, I heard that Tenglong has identified you as the primary target. What are your plans?"
Lian Haolong looked up at Huo Han, his face devoid of any fear. "I've anticipated this. I'm aware of Tenglong's fear of me. However, if he wants to get rid of me, it won't be that easy."
Huo Han walked up to Lian Haolong and said seriously, "I know you are capable, but you also have to be careful. (Zhao Li's) Tenglong is not an easy opponent."
Lian Haolong smiled faintly: "Don't worry, I know what to do. This war has only just begun."
As soon as Tenglong's bounty was released on the black market, it caused an instant uproar.
Countless assassins and bounty hunters began secretly plotting to strike a fatal blow against Lian Haolong, hoping to reap the lucrative reward. While the Huo family was powerful, the reward offered by Tenglong was enough to tempt many risk-takers.
