Chapter 1821

Wu Guozhang sighed and continued, "It's just that I am a nobody now, and there is not much I can do."

"Brother Gu, your Gu family is close to the inland government. You should stand up at this time, denounce the misdeeds of Commander Gao, and speak for the peace-loving people of Penglai!"

Since Gu Changqing is playing with him, he can neither oppose nor follow, so he should respond in the same way!

And Wu Guozhang's words are also borrowing power to fight power. Since you are so angry about Gao Qimei's behavior, your Gu family should take the lead!

Hearing this, Gu Changqing smiled reluctantly, "Brother Wu, what you said is exactly what I thought. I have asked Minglun to prepare a press conference."

The Minglun mentioned by Gu Changqing is the second generation of the Gu family, Gu Minglun, who was put forward by the Gu family to run for the Penglai leader.

At this point, Gu Changqing changed the subject and said, "However, Brother Wu, I think it is not enough to just refute Commander Gao on the issue of governance. This is only a temporary solution and not a fundamental solution."

Hearing this, Ye Xiao in the compartment and Wu Guozhang, who was sitting opposite Gu Changqing, were both excited. In their opinion, Gu Changqing was finally talking about the point they were concerned about.

Indeed, talking nonsense is not very powerful. It can only be regarded as scratching the itch. It has little impact on Gao Qimei. The Gu family certainly cannot use this trick to fight back against Gao Qimei.

"Oh! According to Brother Gu, how can we solve the problem fundamentally?" Wu Guozhang said casually.

Although Wu Guozhang really wanted to know what Gu Changqing was going to say, he acted very calmly and even showed a bit of disapproval.

After all, the two sides are still competitors, and he needs to hide his true feelings.

Seeing Wu Guozhang's expression, Gu Changqing couldn't help but tilt his head back slightly, "Brother Wu, I'll be frank. What I mean by the fundamental solution is that you and I will join forces to imitate the Sun Liu fight against Cao and eliminate Gao Qimei's base."

Sun Liu fight against Cao?

Could it be that the Gu family wants to join forces with the Wu family?

Ye Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking secretly in his heart.

Gu Changqing used the allusions of the Three Kingdoms to illustrate the current situation in Penglai, which is quite vivid. The three parties all want to compete for the Central Plains and seize the position of leader. Now Gao Qimei is coming with great momentum, isn't it just like Cao Cao who marched south before the Battle of Chibi?

But Cao Cao back then had the weakness that northerners were not used to water battles. What is Gao Qimei's weakness?

Can Gu Changqing and Wu Guozhang find it and defeat it together? And if they win, how should the two sides divide the benefits?

The questions that Ye Xiao was thinking about were also what Wu Guozhang was thinking about quickly at this time.

Gu Changqing, who was opposite him, paused after he finished speaking, and waited calmly for Wu Guozhang to give a reply.

In Gu Changqing's view, Wu Guozhang would definitely agree to join forces with him. First of all, the current Wu family is desperate to run for election. If Wu Guozhang loses, then the Wu family will not decline slowly, but will be liquidated and destroyed in a short time.

And his Gu family has redundant resources and is better than the Wu family. Even if his Gu family loses this election, the Gu family still has the strength to participate in the next election.

Secondly, there are three forces in the game now. Anyone who is not stupid knows that it is beneficial to squeeze one party off the table first.

Even if the two remaining in the end will fight more bloodily, it will be more likely to win than competing with three parties together.

As Gu Changqing expected, after hesitating for a few seconds, Wu Guozhang raised his eyes and looked at Gu Changqing again and said, "Brother Gu, please continue. I would like to hear the details."

Gu Changqing smiled slightly. While turning the handle of the black wooden cane, he talked eloquently, "The reason why Gao Qimei can maintain his election advantage is that in addition to the strong support from Country M, there are three pillars supporting him in Penglai."

"You and I can do nothing about Country M, but destroying Gao Qimei's three pillars in Penglai will inevitably cause Gao Qimei to fall."

"Brother Wu, you don't need me to remind you which three pillars Gao Qimei has!"

Gu Changqing's last sentence was used to test Wu Guozhang. If Wu Guozhang doesn't even have this intelligence ability, then he has to reconsider the strength of the cooperation between the two sides.

Hearing Gu Changqing's words, Ye Xiao in the compartment immediately concentrated on thinking.

Does Gao Qimei have three pillars in Penglai?

Since the information he got was not specific enough, the only thing he could think of was Tiandaohui, one of the three major gangs in Penglai controlled by the Gao family. As for the other two pillars mentioned by Gu Changqing, Ye Xiao was really at a loss.

But this was not difficult for Wu Guozhang, so he listened to him gently.He said with a smile: "The first is the Tiandao Society, the second is Gao Qimei's supporters in the War Department, and the third is the two Penglai chaebols who support Gao Qimei."

As a veteran in Penglai's political arena and a politician who has never lost his ambition for power, how could Wu Guozhang not understand where his competitors' confidence lies?

"Hahaha!" Gu Changqing stroked his beard and laughed.

"Brother Wu, you and I have similar views!"

Gu Changqing was both satisfied and a little apprehensive about Wu Guozhang's direct answer without thinking.

He was satisfied that Wu Guozhang knew Gao Qimei so well, so the cooperation between the two sides would inevitably be more tacit.

What made him apprehensive was that Wu Guozhang could say without hesitation all the support forces of Gao Qimei, so did Wu Guozhang also know the situation of his own Gu family?

"Brother Gu, as far as I know, Gao Qimei has a firm grasp on the three pillars under him, and they have close interests with each other. If we want to sabotage, it may not be easy!"

Wu Guozhang looked directly at Wu Changqing and asked.

Gu Changqing wanted to use the trick of cutting off the source of Gao Qimei, which Wu Guozhang had thought of, but it was very difficult to implement.

Gao Qimei was not like himself. He had been in office for four years and was in power. It was highly likely that he would not have subordinates like Wang Beixiong and Lin Yunxiang who had ulterior motives.

Gu Changqing smiled slightly, "Brother Wu, everything depends on human effort. If it is just you or me, it is difficult to dismantle Gao Qimei's pillars, but if you and I join forces, the effect will be different."

"I have a preliminary idea. Let's start with the easy and then the difficult. We will start with Tiandaohui and the Penglai financial group that supports Gao Qimei, and finally attack Penglai War Department together."

"Brother Wu, I also heard about what happened at the Zhonghemen Conference a few days ago. Not only did your men return the general Situ Zhao, but they also joined forces with "I believe that with the current strength of Zhonghemen, and the assistance of Wuhu Gang, it should not be difficult to cripple Tiandaohui!" After a little thought, Wu Guozhang responded: "If Brother Gu can get Wuhu Gang to cooperate with him, I think it will not be a big problem." The three major gangs in Penglai have been maintaining a three-legged situation for a long time. If it is two against one, plus Zhonghemen, there are also the warden and Ye Xiao, a god-level master, sitting in charge, it will naturally be easy to cripple Tiandaohui. Moreover, Zhonghemen was almost torn apart by the Gao family's power. Situ Zhao and his daughter must have been holding their breath. If they were asked to attack Tiandaohui, which was controlled by the Gao family, I believe Situ Zhao and his daughter would go all out. But Wu Guozhang was not completely at ease with the Gu family. You must know that the Gu family also had a hand in Situ Zhao's imprisonment two years ago.
