The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 141 Underestimate the enemy?

On the day Jiang Cheng marched into and stationed in Luanzhou, the capital was shaken.

As the current head of the Beiyang government, Feng Huafu asked all parties in surprise the reasons, but everyone, from inside the Great Wall to outside the Great Wall, just laughed it off.

The struggle for power in the capital during this period was basically a contest between the Zhi army and the Anhui army.

You have to know that in the past, whether it was Feng Huafu or Duan Shouzi, they had always regarded the people outside the Great Wall as inferior prairie wolves and blind bears, and did not take them as dishes at all.

Now they suddenly rushed into the interior and headed straight for Luanzhou, Lao Duan's sphere of influence. Feng Huafu, the current controller of the capital, was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat.

Could it be that the little guy Zhang outside the Great Wall has formed an alliance with that old Duan?
As soon as this thought flashed through his mind, his top general Wu Peifu calmly told him:
On the day the Fengtian Army occupied Shanhaiguan, he had sent people to investigate secretly.

There was only one Fengtian Army brigade that entered the pass, and the troops carrying the baggage seemed to be just waiting inside the pass.

This group of Fengtian troops that entered the pass should just be a test and would not dare to move towards the capital.

Besides, the scouts reported that the leader was a little kid who hadn’t even grown all his hair yet. What could he do?
It is still a long way from Luanzhou to threaten the capital: if Old Duan and the baby boy really dare to come, it would be a blessing in disguise.

The heavy machine guns, trenches, barbed wire and other things had been thirsty for a long time, so they were just picked up and sent to their death.

The tense atmosphere soon dissipated because of Wu Xiucai's remarks that underestimated the enemy.

But this is also a signal: it seems that the resigned old Duan is not willing to lose power, and must have secretly united with these blind bears outside the Great Wall.

"Please be careful, everyone should stay awake and pay close attention——"

However, just as the capital was worried about the alliance between Anhui and Fengtian, it turned all its attention to Shanhaiguan, worrying that more Fengtian troops would enter from here...

This commander, who was described by the Zhi army as "greenhorn", was playing and joking with Cai Yuanming and other young officers in the Luanzhou Posthouse.

Beijing roast duck, big meat dumplings, and all kinds of fish, shrimp and seafood produced locally in Luanzhou, accompanied by the best Fenjiu Lihuachun, the whole hall is filled with a lively atmosphere.

"Hey, bring over two of those canned meats. I haven't eaten any yet!"

In the eyes of the military officers in the interior, these outsiders from the three northeastern provinces were indeed a little too noisy.

But after all, they are "guests" invited into the interior to jointly fight against Lao Feng, so no matter how different their ideologies are, they have to maintain the surface work.

"Master!"

Just when the banquet was reaching its climax, the sentry at the door suddenly shouted, "Report, come in."

Jiang Cheng turned around, took his eyes off the two men who were tied up and beaten with blood all over their bodies and faces, and calmly picked up the chopsticks to eat the meat.

"Tell me, what do you do?"

Clearly noticing the hesitation of several Anhui officers including Yu Shanchang, Jiang Cheng added slowly, "Why, are you here to eavesdrop?"

"To answer your question, young master, these two were sneaking around our base, and they said nothing when they were caught and questioned."

Han Ming reported quickly, "But the accent is from Beijing."

"Haha, we have only rested for a few days in Luanzhou, how come Mr. Wu is so quick?"

Jiang Cheng suddenly threw the chopsticks in his hand onto the table, pulled out a Browning from his waist, and fired a shot.

One of them had his chest exploded, and he fell to the ground with a scream and died.

The other one turned pale in an instant, and the whole hall fell into deathly silence.

Jiang Cheng lazily stood up and looked around, then smiled and said, "I'm a country bumpkin from outside the Great Wall, and I've never seen any elegant and graceful scenes."

"If they can't see someone, they will really resort to knives and guns."

"Drag him out - parade him through the streets! Just tell them what I, Jiang Cheng, said, whoever is not afraid of death should come to Luanzhou and fight me, don't do this fucking petty theft!" The two guards immediately straightened their chests and dragged both the living and the dead out.

At this moment, another subordinate trotted in: "Report, a call from Fengtian!"

Jiang Cheng, who was already slightly tipsy, immediately perked up, and walked out while jokingly pointing at the delicacies on the table: "Brothers, eat and drink first, but remember to save some for me!"

When he went out to answer the phone, Yang Yuting's serious voice came: "53rd Brigade? News from Qinhuangdao, all the equipment has been unloaded."

"Depart tonight!"

Jiang Cheng replied lazily: "Well, I understand."

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone, and Yang Yuting quickly asked, "What?"

"Hey, Chief of Staff, you've been giving me, Jiang Cheng, a hard time along the way, right?"

Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and said calmly, "I won't mention how much trouble the Japanese road guards along the way have caused us. They didn't provide enough supplies, and the lines were not connected--"

"Why, are you planning to have our 53rd Brigade learn from Li Chuang Wang?"

Yang Yuting didn't respond.

Because Marshal Zhang and others in front of him were all casting mixed glances at him.

"Jiang Feilan, don't you understand the order? Set off tonight!"

Even though they were such a long distance away, Yang Yuting still felt the threat from Luanzhou within the Great Wall.

Hearing the slight tremor in his voice, Jiang Cheng realized that he was most likely calling from the Marshal's side.

Feeling a little bolder, he sneered twice: "Sir, you are also aware of the importance of this batch of equipment, right?"

"Do you think you are giving me, Jiang Cheng, a problem? You are giving Master Shuai a problem!"

He has already presented unfriendly and even harsh calculations to the Jiang family one after another. If he does not give the Chief of the General Staff a warning, there will be no peace in the future for both Dapingzhuang and Xinmin.

"I don't understand what you're talking about. Super Six has been following you guys and dealing with them continuously... The supplies have all arrived now."

Before he could even finish his words, Jiang Cheng growled rudely, "The child is dead and you're already breastfeeding. You know how to throw away the snot in your mouth?"

"Alright! Sir, please tell the commander that I will always be his boy. Gather the troops and march out immediately!"

After saying this, he hung up the phone in annoyance without waiting for Yang Yuting's response.

He turned around and was about to fasten the buttons of his military uniform when he saw Jiang Dengxuan standing at the door.

He glared at the guard Han Ming, who understood that his superior was dissatisfied with him for not saying anything, so he had no choice but to smile apologetically.

Jiang Dengxuan completely ignored the eye contact between the master and servant, walked straight in and asked, "Are we leaving?"

"Ah."

Jiang Cheng nodded and repeated the order, but the usually gentle officer suddenly reached out and grabbed his arm: "Feilan, don't you say that we are brothers from the same family? What are your plans?"

Jiang Cheng suddenly turned his head and gently stroked his palm as if he was not used to it: "What are you planning? Isn't the order from above clear enough?"

"Can we take the things out and return to Fengtian?"

Hearing that he had no intention of giving a direct answer, Jiang Dengxuan simply said, "The general is away."
