The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 134: Two Uses in One

Two hours later, at the provincial government building.

There was a storm of scolding coming from Marshal Zhang's office.

Jiang Cheng, wearing a brand new military uniform, stood behind the officers who were being scolded, feeling extremely awkward.

It sounded like he was scolding the officers guarding the city gate as pigs for letting the murderous Rong Shihong in and injuring people.
In fact…the old guy was clearly calling him a pig.

After all, Xuecheng was seriously injured, and he was so guilty that he dared not fart.

Moreover, the old guy's cunning eyes kept glancing at him, which made Jiang Cheng feel creepy.

Yang Yuting stood beside the Marshal with his hands clasped behind his back, looking at him with a half-smile.

"Go, go, go, get out of here!"

After finally finishing his scolding, the Marshal did not forget to slam the table to intimidate these "pigs", and his words were extremely sharp, "If you continue to be pigs to me, I will really drive you to Beidaying to raise pigs for me!"

The guards dared not raise their heads and retreated out the door in a timid manner.

When Jiang Cheng saw this, he also lowered his head and wanted to run with him. The Marshal was even more furious: "Where are you going, you little bastard? Get back here!"

"Hey hey... yes, handsome!"

Jiang Cheng smiled widely, "I'm here, don't get angry, I'm not that brave!"

Upon hearing this, the old man became even angrier: "Yo yo? You have the guts to ask me about your guts?"

"You even dared to kill Rong Shihong. Aren't you braver than God?"

Jiang Cheng stuck out his tongue, smiled slyly, and tiptoed forward to massage his shoulders: "Oh my god, I was wrong, isn't that okay? Besides, can you blame me for this? This should be blamed on the Americans!"

"Go away... don't give me that!"

Pushing his hand away unhappily, the Marshal glared at him, "Why are you blaming foreigners for this?"

"Isn't it because the guns they make are unreliable?"

The more he was sure that he had fired the gun, the more the Marshal agreed in his heart. Jiang Cheng said with a smile, "Master, the gun went off accidentally... God knows why those foreign guns are so unreliable!"

"Oh, by the way, handsome man, I finally understand why you taught me to run and pray for a child when I fight in close combat... I have learned this from you, brother..."

"Don't smile for me hippie!"

Marshal Zhang slapped him on the back of the head and said sternly, "You think you did it cleanly? The news has spread all over Fengtian."

So fast?
In other words, Feng Laosan must also know about it?

"Master, I will admit what I have done."

Jiang Cheng straightened up with a serious look on his face, "Is this the news that Feng Yong brought back?"

"I'm not surprised, but he came to you so quickly, Master. Didn't he have this plan in mind a long time ago?"

Yang Yuting raised his eyebrows.

"You little brat, you look foolish and reckless, but you actually have a little bit of smartness."

The Marshal showed some approval, "As soon as the gunshot went off over there, Old Feng called me in a hurry... It shouldn't be the letter brought back by the eldest son of the Feng family, it wouldn't be that fast."

Originally thought, it was Feng Yong who came to help and brought back the news that he had shot Rong Shihong dead.

Now it seems……

"Master Shuai, if you put it that way, I understand a little bit!"

After a brief shock, Jiang Cheng let out a long sigh and said, "He suddenly broke into my house with his men, and didn't touch the Hai family father and daughter or my wife before Brother Xuecheng took action—"

"Logically speaking, if he really came here for revenge, shouldn't he have killed the three of them right away?" "Now that I think about it, his abnormal behavior itself is problematic!"

The Marshal gave him another sly smile, then raised his head slightly and winked at Yang Yuting beside him.

"Two days ago, we intercepted a Japanese telegram about Rong Shihong's troops being ambushed outside the city along the South Manchuria Railway."

Yang Yuting immediately took out a piece of paper and said, "The sender's name is Sanpu, and he is the president and commander-in-chief of the Fengtian section of the South Manchuria Railway."

This is not surprising.

On the day of the ambush, Jiang Cheng left two scouts waiting before evacuating: they did see the ruins of the Kwantung Army's scouting camp.

However, he did not rush to express his opinion, but stood there waiting for Yang Yuting to finish speaking.

"The 28th Division's reply was very simple: it mentioned you and Daping Village, and suggested that we work together to take down Daping Village."

"In other words, Rong Shihong is just the vanguard - he wants to take advantage of the discord between you and at least kill you, Jiang Feilan."

Jiang Cheng was silent.

Yes.

So the Hai father and daughter and Xiaojuan are just baits, right?
It was Feng Delin who signaled Rong Shihong to rush to his home, asking him to find ways to lure him back, and it would be best to catch him in one fell swoop!
"Sir, I have to say our commander is quite smart."

Jiang Cheng laughed instead of getting angry, "It would be best if Rong Shihong killed me and Yuanming. Then he could use the excuse that Yuanzong is seriously injured to take over Dapingzhuang completely—"

"If Rong Taicai dies in my hands, won't he have an excuse to say that I dared to kill his subordinates and work with the Japanese to destroy me?"

Yang Yuting smiled and said, "So, does Feilan want to counter his moves?"

"What can I do?"

Jiang Cheng immediately acted like a rogue, "We have no soldiers or ranks now, how can we afford to offend the leader of the 28th Division?"

"Just waiting to die. Who made me act so carelessly... Ugh, who made me accidentally discharge my gun?"

He was not being sarcastic, but was clear-headed:
One is the top leader of Fengtian, the military governor;

The other was the chief of staff of the entire Fengtian Province army.
Can you just pull me along when you have nothing to do and say useless words?
They must have an idea!

"Tsk, don't give me that."

The Marshal glanced at him, but he still sighed and continued, "The third brother called and asked me for someone."

"It's exactly the same as what you said. He shot his brigade commander and asked me, the warlord, whether to investigate."

Jiang Cheng lowered his eyebrows, staring at the stalemated face, and listened to him continue to say: "I know clearly in my heart that the old man is so quick, he must have thought of this two-pronged strategy a long time ago."

"If you follow his way, you will be fooled!"

Yang Yuting also took over the conversation at this moment: "But as the governor of Fengtian Province, you are nominally the highest commander of the entire Fengtian Province army!"

"If this matter falls into the hands of Feng Delin, it will definitely be a perfect handle... I have discussed with Master Shuai and asked you to go and make amends!"

Jiang Cheng straightened up after hearing this: Did I hear it right?
Make amends? What does it mean?

As if seeing that he was at a loss, Yang Yuting raised his chin slightly towards the sand table behind him: "Qinhuangdao."

When Jiang Cheng heard this place name, his mind exploded!
If he remembered correctly, the mission assigned to him this time, if successful...the army of Feng Province would be enough to shake the entire situation outside the Great Wall!
Qinhuangdao.

Before the Russo-Japanese War, the Russians had invested in building a giant seaport here, whose throughput once exceeded that of Lushun, Dalian and other places.
After the Russo-Japanese War, the port was taken over by the capital.

And this time the mission should be that batch of equipment!
