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

Inside the city, the search for Zhang Zhixiao's whereabouts was still in full swing. No one could have imagined that the kidnapper they had been trying so hard to find was hiding in the residence of Liu Dahai, the commander of the Guard Division, tonight.

In the Governor's Mansion, Zhang Chengxiang did not sleep all night and looked extremely ugly. No matter how disappointing Zhang Zhixiao was, he was still his only son and the bloodline of the Zhang family. That night, Zhang Chengxiang was like an ant on a hot pan and was extremely anxious.

At dawn in the morning, Liu Dahai, Elantra and Bamba, who were dressed in the uniforms of the Guard Division soldiers, came to the Governor's Mansion in a car.

"Hello, sir!"

Cao Ang, the battalion commander of the 211st Battalion of the th Regiment of the Guard Division, who was responsible for the defense of the Governor's Office, saluted Liu Dahai.

Liu Dahai waved his hand and said, "I'm going to see the Governor. There has been new progress regarding the whereabouts of the young master."

Cao Ang nodded and signaled to the soldiers behind him to make way. Just like that, Liu Dahai swaggered into the Governor's Mansion with Elantra and Bamba, and went straight to the lobby of the villa in Fenglinyuan.

"Master, please eat something. You haven't slept all night and haven't eaten anything. This is not good."

A young woman in cheongsam brought a bowl of steaming chicken soup and placed it on the coffee table in front of Zhang Chengxiang.

"I'm not in the mood to eat right now, take it away."

Zhang Chengxiang looked unhappy and spoke in a very annoyed tone.

The young woman could only shake her head helplessly and leave with the chicken soup.

"Governor, Commander Liu is here and he has something important to report to you."

"Let him in!"

After a while, Liu Dahai walked into the hall alone, while Elantra and Bamba were stopped outside the villa.

Zhang Chengxiang raised his head and glanced at Liu Dahai coldly, saying, "You'd better bring me some good news."

Liu Dahai swallowed his saliva, calmed himself and said, "Governor, I found out that this group of people may have an insider in the city, and the location given on their note is a complete fabrication."

Zhang Chengxiang nodded thoughtfully. This group of kidnappers most likely had an accomplice and had made extremely careful arrangements in advance. Otherwise, it would be impossible for something to go wrong the moment Zhang Zhixiao sneaked out of the Governor's Mansion.

"So, you have some information about the insider?"

Liu Dahai nodded solemnly. At this moment, a figure slowly walked into the hall from outside the villa.

The man who came was Elantra, who was wearing the uniform of a guard division soldier. In just a few minutes, Elantra and Bamba had silently eliminated the eight guards at the main entrance of the villa.

Zhang Chengxiang looked in the direction of the footsteps and shouted at Elantra, "Who let you in? Get out!"

Elantra did not make any response to Zhang Chengxiang's scolding. With a sneer on his lips, he continued to walk towards Zhang Chengxiang as if no one was around.

Zhang Chengxiang sensed a hint of danger at this moment, and reacted very quickly to draw his gun. Elante flipped his right hand, and a sharp military dagger appeared in his hand. Then he shook his wrist, and the dagger shot out like an arrow, piercing Zhang Chengxiang's throat at an extremely fast speed.

Zhang Chengxiang's action of drawing the gun came to an abrupt halt. His pupils shrank suddenly, a large amount of blood flowed out from the corners of his mouth, a look of disbelief appeared in his eyes, and his body kept struggling, making gurgling sounds, but the dagger's sharp blade, which was more than ten centimeters long, had already penetrated Zhang Chengxiang's neck. Not far away, Zhang Chengxiang's personal bodyguard and secretary looked at the sudden scene in front of them and were stunned for a moment.

No one could have imagined that an ordinary soldier from a guard division would actually rush out at this moment and kill the life of the governor-general of the three provinces of Zhili.

Bamba's figure also appeared in the hall, holding a pistol with a silencer in his hand. After two inconspicuous faint gunshots, the guards and the secretary also followed Zhang Chengxiang's footsteps.

From beginning to end, there was no alarming sound in the entire villa hall. Elantra and Bamba completed the task brilliantly and perfectly in just two minutes.

In fact, for Elantra, killing Zhang Chengxiang was not difficult, but how to sneak into the heavily guarded Fenglinyuan Villa and how to escape safely after the mission was accomplished was the biggest difficulty.

Liu Dahai felt a chill all over his body as he looked at the three people lying in a pool of blood in front of him.

"Captain Liu, I'm sorry to have to bear with you from now on."

Elantra walked up to Liu Dahai and stabbed him in the abdomen with a sharp knife. The direction of the stab was very careful, just avoiding the important internal organs in the human body. While Liu Dahai was not in danger of life in the short term, he was seriously injured and fell into a coma.

Two minutes later, Elantra wiped the blood off the dagger and walked out of Maple Garden calmly with Bamba. Using their identities as soldiers of the Guard Division as cover, they entered the back garden, found an empty corner, and climbed over the wall to leave.

The reason why they didn't go through the main gate was to avoid the battalion commander Cao Ang, who had just seen the two of them, from wondering why only the two of them came out alone. Elantra has always been very calm in doing things, and has meticulous control over every detail.

Half an hour later, Elantra and the members of the Divine Punishment Squad, wearing military uniforms and driving a military jeep, swaggered through the west gate inspection and left Qingyun City.

As the kidnapping of Zhang Zhixiao continued to escalate, the scope of the search had expanded to the villages and towns surrounding Qingyun City. Every day, a large number of guard division soldiers were sent out of the city to perform tasks, so their actions did not arouse any suspicion.

Not long after Elantra and others left, Zhang Chengxiang's concubine discovered the tragic situation in the villa hall. The plate in her hand fell to the ground instantly and she let out a terrified scream.

With the death of Zhang Chengxiang, the 350,000-strong army of four armies in the three provinces of Zhili fell into a completely chaotic situation with no leader.

Elantra personally took action and completed the hellishly difficult assassination plan of Zhang Chengxiang without any soldiers involved.

The entire Qingyun City was in complete chaos after Zhang Chengxiang's death. When Liu Dahai woke up in the hospital, he immediately spoke righteously and angrily and demanded that the entire guard division must find the murderer who assassinated Zhang Chengxiang.

In fact, until two days after the assassination, it was still a puzzling unsolved case. No one knew how the assassin sneaked into the Governor's Palace silently and left silently.

Watching Liu Dahai and two personal guards enter the Governor's Mansion, Cao Ang had some vague guesses in his mind, but now that Zhang Chengxiang had passed away, it was an irreversible fact. Cao Ang, the only one who had guessed some of the truth, naturally chose to remain silent.

At this time, Zhang Zhixiao's body was also found in the courtyard rented by Yilante and others. Zhang and his son, one after another, went to the underworld hand in hand.
