Warlords: Rising from the Northwest Border and Sweeping Across the Powers

Chapter 145: Su Zhengyang's confidence in the turbulent Shanghai

"End it, why should I consider ending it? Since you all want to get rid of Beijiang, then I, Su Zhengyang, will change the whole city of Shanghai and reshape the overall situation! Also, you'd better stop your stupid actions. I promise that before you pull out a gun, my people will shoot you in the head with a bullet."

As Su Zhengyang finished his words, Yan Shuangying drew his gun, bolted and aimed. His movements were smooth and fast to the point of being outrageous.

The big-eyed gun in his hand was immediately pointed at Zhang Liye's head.

Zhang Liye was startled and slowly lowered his right hand which was on the holster.

At this time, Bai Mingyu, who had recovered, had a bloody face. He pulled out his service gun in anger and pointed it at Su Zhengyang. He was emotional and hysterical and cursed: "Su Zhengyang, if I don't kill you today, I will write my name, Bai Mingyu, backwards."

At the same time, about twenty or thirty gang members in suits with stern faces rushed to the second floor and confronted the calm Yang Chengjun with guns drawn.

"Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you are about to become the son-in-law of the President of Northern Frontier. You are nothing in Shanghai."

Goldman wiped his hands, put down the handkerchief, looked at Su Zhengyang, and smiled as if he was confident of victory.

"Are you the fishmonger from Yongsheng Company? A spineless lackey who made his fortune by relying on the Japanese?"

Su Zhengyang sneered, "I admire you for having the courage to have a face-to-face conversation with me. Unfortunately, in my eyes, you are just a piece of shit that is not worthy of being on the table. Do you have the qualifications to speak here?"

"Why don't we make a bet? You shoot me and my men shoot Zhang Liye. As long as Marshal Zhang dies, the Songhu Army will be leaderless, and Councillor Feng's army will march south. All the efforts of your Southern Government will be in vain. Do you think your father will break your legs?"

Su Zhengyang slowly poured himself a glass of wine and looked at Bai Mingyu with a fierce look in his eyes. Even though the black muzzle of the gun in Bai Mingyu's hand was pointed at him, Su Zhengyang was not at all panicked.

"In ten minutes at most, at least three hundred of us from Yongsheng will surround this place. If everyone spits on you, you, Su Zhengyang, will be drowned. So, we might as well sink you, a little ignorant fellow, into the Longjiang River tonight."

Zhang Liye also looked at Su Zhengyang and said meaningfully, "I originally thought you were a remarkable young talent, but now it seems that you are just a brainless reckless man. You came here in the middle of the night, went crazy, and showed off your so-called arrogance as a congressman. Have you ever thought that this action will completely bury you here?"

At this time, on the three jeeps parked at the entrance of the Great World, seven members of the Dragon God Special Forces, led by Wei Dayong, rushed into the Great World Ballroom with great momentum. Everyone in the ballroom had no interest in continuing to indulge in the beautiful singing. In order to avoid trouble, many people had already left, and the rest of the people cast their eyes to the second floor, discussing who the sudden appearance was and who was so bold as to give the young commander of the Baijia family a headshot gift.

Seven soldiers went up to the second floor and, without firing a single shot, they easily knocked down more than 20 of Goldman's men.

This also made Goldman Sachs look unhappy.

Wei Dayong walked up to Su Zhengyang with his head held high and said, "Report to the Governor, the thugs who intended to harm the Governor have been subdued by us."

Su Zhengyang waved his hand, signaling Wei Dayong to leave. He looked straight at Zhang Liye and said, "Actually, I'm here tonight just to mess things up. I want to see what methods you can use to keep me here."

"With just these few men like you, you will definitely die tonight!"

After a while, a large number of black cars stopped in front of the Great World Ballroom, and hundreds of Yongsheng Company's thugs swarmed in and surrounded Su Zhengyang and his group. Following closely behind them was the Songhu Army under Zhang Liye. A whole battalion of soldiers completely blocked the entire ballroom.

Zhang Liye looked at Su Zhengyang calmly and said, "Your confidence comes from the so-called Beilong Town's more than 101 combat troops. Let me tell you, the Bai family's st Division has reached Hongqiao District and is keeping a close eye on the Beilong Town garrison camp. If they dare to make any move, they will be hit hard. Now, tell me, what qualifications do you have to say that you can walk out safely tonight?"

Su Zhengyang smiled indifferently and nodded to Wei Dayong. Wei Dayong unbuttoned his military coat, and he was covered with detonators made of high explosives from head to toe. As long as the fuse was lit, the power of these detonators would be enough to raze the entire Great World Ballroom to the ground.

Goldman Sachs, Bai Mingyu, and Song Ziqiang all turned pale instantly. Su Zhengyang's move undoubtedly grasped their lifeline. They were all people who enjoyed wealth and glory, high status, and extraordinary identities. It was true that they wanted to kill Su Zhengyang, but they did not want to die with him.

Only Zhang Liye looked at Su Zhengyang calmly and sneered, "You want to play this life-threatening trick with me? Why don't you let him detonate the explosives? Even if I, Zhang Liye, die here today, it would be worthwhile to have you, Su Zhengyang, a rising star in the Northern Frontier, buried with me."

Wei Dayong glared and said, "You f*cking think I don't dare!"

As this rough man spoke, he was about to use the half-burned cigar handed to him by Yan Shuangying to light the fuse. The red cigarette butt was less than one centimeter away from the fuse. The other young masters were frightened and their backs were instantly soaked with cold sweat.

"Zhang...Brother Zhang, please don't provoke him. If you have something to say, just talk slowly. Why do you have to make it this far?"

Bai Mingyu, who had been shouting just now, was the first to give in. He hurriedly spoke to Zhang Liye, hoping that he would stop provoking Su Zhengyang, the madman.

Zhang Liye squinted his eyes and looked at Su Zhengyang. Su Zhengyang was even more calm, with his legs crossed and his body relaxed. The atmosphere suddenly became extremely solemn.

After a moment, a deep voice broke the deadlock.

I saw a middle-aged man wearing a green robe, with a square face and a mustache, and an old man who looked bloated and fat, who forced their way in with their men.

"Where is Councillor Su? I want to take Councillor Su out of here safely today!"

"Wang Jiahai from the Axe Gang? Fang Jingyao from the French Concession?"

Zhang Liye frowned slightly. One of these two was Wang Jiahai, the boss of Shanghai's number one gang, the Hudong Axe Gang, and the other was Fang Jingyao, the chief Chinese detective of the French Concession. They were both well-known figures in Shanghai with extraordinary identities.

The Axe Gang under Wang Jiahai is said to have 30,000 members and controls all the casinos and brothels in Shanghai. The Great World Ballroom where they are now also has some shares in Wang Jiahai. As for Fang Jingyao, he is a gangster with a very high seniority in the Hong Gang. He was born a dock laborer and is now the highly respected Chief Chinese Inspector in the French Concession. The Jingyuan Chamber of Commerce under him also holds a pivotal position in the whole of Shanghai.

A smile appeared on Su Zhengyang's lips. The purpose of his coming here tonight was not to overturn the table directly, but to see Zhang Liye's attitude and who he was involved with. Now that his goal has been achieved and the attitude that should be expressed has been expressed, it is time to withdraw and prepare to solve the problem directly and fundamentally.

Su Zhengyang would not be stupid enough to really kill Zhang Liye and a group of warlords and princes of the Southern Government here. Once the situation became out of control, his own safety could not be guaranteed.

Before coming, Su Zhengyang called He Zhengnan in Beilong City and Feng Changan in Huizhou respectively. These two big guys who suddenly appeared were the work of He Zhengnan and Feng Changan, and it was also the reason why Su Zhengyang was confident that he could get away with it safely.
