274: Chapter 274 Can't Talk? No Way!
"Advisor... I don't know what you mean by this?"
Finally, it was General Sam who reacted first.
He licked his dry lips, then quickly asked.
However, the people from the Council of Elders would not miss such an opportunity to deal with Lin Heng.
After they realized what was happening, they immediately let out a cold snort.
"What do I mean?"
"Isn't that obvious!?"
"This clearly means he wants to be our enemy!"
"Sam... look carefully! Is this the Advisor you absolutely trust?"
"It's a good thing we helped you test him out; otherwise, who knows what major trouble might have happened next!"
Quite a few Elders immediately spoke without reservation.
They didn't have much patience left for Lin Heng.
After all, Lin Heng's influence in South Africa over the years was simply too great.
Many students in schools only recognized Lin Heng and not these Elders of the Sam Tribe!
When they even appeared at the school gates and found that the statue erected there was not of the Elders of the Sam Tribe, but of Lin Heng... that feeling was even more exaggerated!
Why... could an outsider like him... have such great influence within their Sam Tribe!?
This was something they absolutely could not allow.
"Now, I think Mr. Lin Heng, you had better return quickly. We don't need the people of the Dragon Country to bother with the affairs of Africa."
"However, if you truly wish to remain in Africa, we are not entirely unwelcoming. But I'm afraid you won't be able to appear in public anymore..."
"This is not just the meaning of us Elders, but also General Sam's meaning."
"The development of South Africa over so many years is inseparable from Mr. Lin Heng. But now, Mr. Lin Heng, you have reached a time when you can retire. Any intelligent person would know what to do at this point."
Soon, a highly respected person among the Elders stepped forward and directly explained the reason.
He quickly clarified the situation and spoke casually to Lin Heng.
Heh heh...
Just because of this?
Su Xueer and the others quickly understood.
Even if they didn't know the full story, they could still very clearly sense that these people had the intention of discarding someone once their usefulness was over.
Heh heh...
It's just that Lin Heng's achievements have become too prominent, so they are finding some random excuse to try and remove him?
Only those thoughtless people would act this way.
After all, without Lin Heng, their South Africa would never have developed, let alone managed to control half of Africa...
But this was also an unavoidable situation.
Almost simultaneously, everyone's gaze converged on Lin Heng.
At this moment...
Lin Heng's expression was very calm.
It seemed as if none of this mattered to him.
After hearing the words of that Elder, Lin Heng merely turned his head to look at Chieftain Sam.
"Is everything he said true? Do you also think that I, as a person, no longer have any use? Or perhaps my existence is not a good thing for your South Africa?"
"I... South Africa will always welcome you!"
"Advisor, as long as you wish, you can join us!"
In the end, Chieftain Sam hesitated for a moment before choosing the side of the Elders.
After all, the situation in Africa had already been settled. Once they marched north, those people who were already weak would certainly not be their match at this time.
Occupying Africa was only a matter of time!
At that time, he would be the true overlord of the African savanna!
This was an unprecedented achievement!
Hearing this, Lin Heng's eyes narrowed slightly.
So that was the situation!
However...
Was Lin Heng someone who would easily suffer a loss in silence?
Just as Su Xueer and the others were worrying for Lin Heng, they saw Lin Heng quickly smile faintly.
"Can do..."
"I won't ask for much, just the piece of land I conquered is enough."
"Can do... That's no problem!"
When the Elders saw that Lin Heng was so polite, they quickly smiled slightly.
A sense of relief washed over them.
They exchanged glances, finally letting out a sigh of relief.
It was just a piece of land; even if the resources on it were given to Lin Heng, so what?
They readily agreed.
At that moment, Lin Heng continued to add:
"I want all the land in that region, as well as Lubisang and five hundred Black soldiers."
"This land was conquered by me. I have given so much advice to South Africa before, and helped you win countless wars. Giving me a piece of land shouldn't be an issue, right?"
If this were the Warring States period in the Dragon Country, Lin Heng would definitely rank among the Three Dukes... be granted a marquisate of ten thousand households... or even be enfeoffed as a king!
Asking for a piece of land like this shouldn't be a problem.
As soon as he said this, the Elders hesitated.
Their expressions all changed.
If Lin Heng only asked for a piece of land, at most it would be some resources, and South Africa had plenty of those!
But those five hundred Black soldiers...
What did Lin Heng mean by this?
"Heh heh... I regret to inform you that we cannot comply. After all, these men are members of our Sam Tribe. Even if we agree, it's not certain those men will agree."
Soon, one of the Elders immediately spoke up.
As soon as these words were uttered, before Lin Heng could speak, Lubisang and the others quickly stepped forward.
"No need. We are all willing to become the Advisor's soldiers!"
"Guarding a piece of land for the Advisor is also guarding the land of our South Africa; it is not shameful..."
Ah!?
The Elders were dumbfounded.
When did the Black soldiers of their South Africa start taking the side of outsiders?
These guys... were they brainwashed silly by Lin Heng?
"Absolutely not!"
"Next is the time for us to carry out the unification war. Although our Sam Tribe does not lack these five hundred men, you are all part of the Sam Tribe, and we absolutely cannot afford to lose you!"
The Elders naturally could not agree to give Lin Heng military power.
Even five hundred men were out of the question!
Previously, Lin Heng had used five hundred men to defeat an army of ten thousand!
At this moment, Chieftain Sam was also stretched to his limit.
Cold sweat continuously dripped from his forehead, and in his heart, he could only silently pray that the Elders would speak a little more gently!
Because...
He noticed Lin Heng's movement!
With a 'Bang' sound!
A gunshot rang out.
The hat on the head of a Black Elder present flew off.
Starting from the exposed scalp, his hair was combed into a center part on both sides.
The man could still feel the burning sensation on top of his head.
Everyone was shocked...!
