Chapter 354: The Death of Qu Guowei
Chapter 354: The Death of Qu Guowei
Su Zhengyang's car stopped in front of the gate of Beilong Prison. The warden, who had received the news in advance, had been waiting at the door with senior prison officials, nodding and bowing.
"Congressman Su's visit to Beilong Prison really brings glory to this place. Congressman Su, are you here to see the serious criminal Qu Guowei?"
After Su Zhengyang nodded, the warden led the way. Su Zhengyang's car drove directly into the prison and stopped under the main building of the prison. Under the leadership of the warden, Su Zhengyang walked down the winding stone steps to the underground floor.
As soon as he arrived at the basement, Su Zhengyang heard Qu Guowei's shouting and cursing.
"You little bastard, you little bastard Su Zhengyang! If I let you become the president of Northern Xinjiang, you will destroy Northern Xinjiang and the entire China sooner or later!"
"Su Zhengyang! If you have the guts, just kill me! What's the point of locking me up here, you bastard!"
The warden showed a trace of embarrassment on his face. He looked at Su Zhengyang who was calm, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Since Qu Guowei was imprisoned, he has been yelling and cursing every day. I advocated using torture to teach him a lesson, but President Yang sent a message asking us not to torture him for the time being and to give him a decent punishment."
The news that Su Zhengyang is about to become the next president of Northern Frontier has spread throughout Northern Frontier. The warden is afraid that he has invisibly offended the man who will be the most powerful and influential person in Northern Frontier in the future.
"Warden Hu, you don't have to explain. I know that Qu Guowei hates me to the core."
The lights in the underground cells were turned on one after another. Normally, the environment was kept as dark as possible in order to increase the prisoners' inner fear.
The sudden brightness made Qu Guowei subconsciously cover his eyes with his right hand. A chaotic sound of footsteps was heard, and after adapting to the light, Qu Guowei saw Su Zhengyang, accompanied by Li Yunlong, the warden and others, with his hands behind his back, looking down at him.
Qu Guowei instantly perked up, and with his weak body he managed to stand up. He grabbed the prison bars with both hands, his knuckles turning white, and stared at Su Zhengyang intently, cursing: "Su Zhengyang! You bastard, you're finally here! No matter what, I'm a hero of the Northern Frontier, and I'm your predecessor, and you actually locked me up in this dark place, you deserve to die!"
Su Zhengyang looked at Qu Guowei coldly and said, "I have been unable to understand one question. Since I started my army, I have been worthy of the people and the Northern Xinjiang government. I first quelled the civil strife in Northern Xinjiang and then recovered the lost land in Northeast China. You, Qu Guowei, are called the Tiger of Northern Xinjiang. You should be a reasonable person who knows right from wrong. Why do you always make things difficult for me and hate me so much?"
Qu Guowei sneered, "Others can't see through you, Su Zhengyang, but Brother Ma and I have already seen through you. If you gain power and become the new president of Northern Frontier, you will definitely eliminate dissidents and make us, the old men who have fought for Northern Frontier for half our lives, have a bad end!"
"It's a pity that idiots like Yan Baoguo and Feng Changan are still deceived by you and played around with by you, but they don't know that the day they lose their usefulness, you, Su Zhengyang, will discard them!"
Su Zhengyang said calmly, "You are right. When I take the presidency, I will definitely centralize power and take away your military power. But for the meritorious officials of Northern Frontier, I, Su Zhengyang, will try my best to give them a good end. I have discussed my specific ideas with Governor Yan, Councillor Feng and others, but they are not standing against me as you think."
“No matter what, you, Qu Guowei, are nothing but a despicable villain who will stop at nothing for personal gain. With warlords like you holding military power and ruling the land, the demise of Northern Xinjiang is only a matter of time. Tiger of Northern Xinjiang? Shame of Northern Xinjiang is more like it!”
Su Zhengyang's words, which pointed directly to Qu Guowei's true feelings, made him furious. He shouted with red eyes, "I have fought for the Northern Frontier for twenty years! I have been through life and death, crawled out from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Most of my old brothers are dead. I don't know how much I have paid to have the status and power I have today. Just one word from you, Su Zhengyang, and I will hand over my military power. You have the final say over life and death! Why?"
Su Zhengyang shook his head with a cold face. In his opinion, Qu Guowei in front of him had already gone crazy. He kept talking about his contribution to Northern Xinjiang over the years. He felt that he should hold power and act tyrannically. Anyone who wanted to take away his power would be his mortal enemy. There was no need to waste time talking to such a Qu Guowei.
"Your son Qu Chen is also a brainless idiot. He doesn't care that you are in prison now. He openly provokes Northern Xinjiang and plans to lead troops south to attack Ganzhou. He is simply seeking his own death. Don't worry, I will send your son down to accompany you soon, so that you will not be alone on the road to the underworld!"
Hearing Su Zhengyang's words, Qu Guowei laughed instead of getting angry.
"Hahahaha, Chen'er is worthy of being the offspring of Qu Guowei! I will never easily compromise with a bastard like you. Even if you kill me, the entire Qu clan in Huzhou will fight you to the death!"
Su Zhengyang simply couldn't understand the thought processes of this father and son. As expected, a dragon gives birth to a dragon, likewise, a phoenix gives birth to a phoenix, and a mouse's son will dig holes. The father and son were exactly the same in character, both being reckless men who did things without thinking or considering the consequences.
"Send Governor Qu on his way!"
Su Zhengyang waved his hand and turned to leave. In the cell behind him, Qu Guowei took off his clothes like a madman, revealing his muscular body and bullet holes and knife marks all over his body.
“Yang Jiakai! Come out and see! How much blood I have shed for Northern Xinjiang! Of the three brothers of our Qu family, I am the only one who has survived from the time we started the rebellion to today. How dare you let your son-in-law kill meritorious officials? You will not die well! The entire Yang family will surely be wiped out!”
Li Yunlong looked coldly at the crazy Qu Guowei in front of him and said, "First, seal his stinky mouth with a branding iron! I will personally wield the knife and skin him alive!"
An hour later, Li Yunlong walked out of the prison with a strong smell of blood on his body. After suffering torture, Qu Guowei, the hardliner, was sent to see the King of Hell by Li Yunlong.
In the car, Su Zhengyang looked at Li Yunlong and said with a smile: "Why waste time on him? You wasted an hour on something that can be solved with just one bullet."
Li Yunlong said with a firm face: "His insults to the Governor are more painful than cutting my flesh with a knife. If I don't skin him alive, the resentment in my heart will not go away."
"But this old bastard is a tough nut to crack. He refused to give in despite all the torture I've done. He even said he wouldn't let me go even if he became a ghost!"
"I, Li Yunlong, will stand here and wait for him to come back as a ghost and then I will skin him alive again!"
Su Zhengyang shook his head helplessly. The people under his command, especially those who were indicated by the system, all had an almost fanatical loyalty and faith in him. However, this was also a good thing for the entire Northwest Revolutionary Army and Northern Frontier.
