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

Chapter 122: The Zhang family who beat up Zhang Zhixiao and lost face

Everyone in the entire Northern Frontier government knows that the Zhang family was originally a wealthy family in Jiaozhou. In order to please the Japanese, they sold their vast tracts of ancestral land to Japan at a low price, just to obtain a large amount of military aid and support. It would have been better if Zhang Zhixiao did not mention this. Since he mentioned the issue of kowtowing to the powers, his Zhang family would naturally be the first to bear the brunt.

Zhang Zhixiao realized his mistake and instantly became angry and shouted at Su Zhengyang, "How dare you, the governor of a small remote province in the northwest, speak nonsense here and ignore my Zhang family. This is really unreasonable!"

Su Zhengyang glanced at Zhang Zhixiao with disdain. What he despised most was the pro-Western faction headed by Zhang's faction. These people, after all, were beasts who were willing to become traitors and traitors to their country for their own interests.

The only difference between them is that Guo Qicheng has opened the country's borders and welcomed the Fuso army to enter, while they have not yet touched the last bottom line of the Northern Frontier government. But in essence, they are not even as good as Guo Qicheng. At least Guo Qicheng knew how to turn back and pull back from the brink in the last moment.

"How could I not take Zhang Xi seriously? I was just discussing the matter. You said I was the governor of a small remote province in the northwest, but at the age of 23, I have everything I have now, and I am about to become the youngest member of the parliament of the Northern Frontier Government. Who do you think you are, Zhang Zhixiao? You yell in front of me and have no manners at all. I really don't know how Governor Zhang raised a playboy like you."

Zhang Zhixiao's eyes were red, his chest heaving, his fists clenched, and he was on the verge of an emotional outburst.

Jiang Xuewen also added: "No wonder you, Zhang Zhixiao, don't have a place among the four recognized young masters of China. With your appearance, you can be compared with me and Brother Duan. It is an extremely disgusting insult to us all."

This sentence completely ignited Zhang Zhixiao. He had been feeling resentful that he could not become one of the Four Young Masters. In his opinion, in terms of family background and talent, not to mention the young masters of the Duan family and the Yang family, at least he was no worse than Jiang Xuewen, or even better than Jiang Xuewen. But in the end, the reputation of the so-called Four Young Masters had nothing to do with him.

"Su Zhengyang! Today I have to teach you a lesson and make you, a so-called congressman, lose face!"

To everyone's surprise, Zhang Zhixiao actually raised his hand and threw the empty wine glass towards Su Zhengyang's head in such a situation.

Su Zhengyang's eyes were cold and he dodged sideways very swiftly. The goblet fell on the marble floor not far away and broke into pieces, with glass shards scattered all over the ground.

The huge noise immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the venue. Zhang Zhixiao loosened his collar, rolled up his sleeves, and pounced towards Su Zhengyang like a hungry tiger.

In Zhang Zhixiao's opinion, he was 1.85 meters tall and weighed nearly 200 kilograms. Su Zhengyang, who seemed shorter and thinner than him, was no match for him at all. Zhang Zhixiao had completely lost his mind and just wanted to pin Su Zhengyang under him and beat him up.

As for the consequences and the series of chain reactions that would occur, he could no longer care about them at this moment.

Even Jiang Xuewen beside Su Zhengyang was shocked. At a dinner party where high-level officials from Northern Frontier and celebrities from all walks of life gathered, even if he was furious, he was the son of the Governor-General of Zhili after all. He had to consider his image and show some self-cultivation. He didn't expect that Zhang Zhixiao would dare to take action directly.

Su Zhengyang sneered. He was a drug enforcement officer in his previous life and had at least learned some boxing and methods to subdue criminals. Although Zhang Zhixiao looked tall and strong, he was actually just an ordinary person with a slender appearance.

Su Zhengyang took two steps back to avoid Zhang Zhixiao who was flying towards him. Then, while the opponent was not yet able to stand firmly, he kicked Zhang Zhixiao hard in the chest, leaving a size 43 shoe print. Zhang Zhixiao was kicked upside down and fell to the ground in a mess.

Since you TM started it first, if I don’t fight back, won’t I become a soft persimmon that anyone can bully?

Su Zhengyang showed no mercy as he walked forward and first gave Zhang Zhixiao a solid slap in the face, which stunned him for a moment with the left half of his face flushed red. Then he punched him again, causing blood to gushed out of Zhang Zhixiao's mouth and nose, and stars to form in his eyes, forcing him to sit on the ground again.

The Governor General of Zhili, Zhang Chengxiang, walked over with a gloomy look and shouted at Su Zhengyang, "Stop it! You beat my son in public in this kind of situation. You are so arrogant before you officially become a member of Congress. If you really become a member of Congress, won't you be so arrogant?"

Yang Jiakai, Duan Jinshu and Jiang Yanlin, the three big guys, also came over immediately. Yang Jiakai asked, "What's going on? Do you know what day it is today? Are you going to make a fool of our Northern Xinjiang government by fighting here?"

Su Zhengyang stopped with a calm expression, but Zhang Zhixiao, after getting up, rushed towards Su Zhengyang regardless of anything, spitting out foul language. He didn't look like a descendant of a famous family or the son of the Governor-General of Zhili.

Fortunately, he was held tightly by several young people behind him with whom he had a good relationship, so he did not do anything out of line.

"I was chatting with Master Zhang, and he suddenly hit me with a wine glass and attacked me. I had no choice but to fight back."

Jiang Xuewen also nodded, indicating that what Su Zhengyang said was the truth.

Zhang Chengxiang looked at his disappointing son and slapped him hard, which instantly calmed Zhang Zhixiao down.

"My son has always been gentle, humble and polite to others. How could he suddenly attack you? You must be confusing right and wrong here!"

He Zhengnan stood up and said something fair at this time: "I saw it with my own eyes. It was Master Zhang who attacked Governor Su first. Governor Su kept giving in, but Master Zhang refused to give in. In desperation, he fought back."

Duan Jiahui also nodded and said, "Grandpa He is right. I saw it too. It was Zhang Zhixiao who started it first."

In fact, many people saw what happened, but they were reluctant to say anything because of Zhang Chengxiang's face. He Zhengnan was the oldest and had the highest seniority, so he didn't have to worry about Zhang Chengxiang. Duan Jiahui, as the prime minister's son, didn't take Zhang's group seriously at all. What's more, he also hated Zhang's series of actions.

With He Zhengnan and Duan Jiahui proving what Su Zhengyang said was true, Zhang Chengxiang couldn't say anything. He glared at Zhang Zhixiao and said, "Go back home! If you embarrass yourself again, I'll break your legs."

Zhang Zhixiao shouted unconvincedly: "It was Su Zhengyang, that bastard, who insulted our Zhang family first, so I took action!"

In such situations, no matter what the reason, the party who strikes first will be labeled as being inconsiderate, impulsive and irritable.

Zhang Chengxiang stared at his son and gritted his teeth, "Go back!"

Zhang Zhixiao finally calmed down. After glaring at Su Zhengyang fiercely, he left the dinner in embarrassment.
