The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 162: Assembling the Troops
"We are all brothers, no need to be so polite."

Jiang Dengxuan changed the subject, "But speaking of which, Feilan, there is something I really need to thank you for!"

Jiang Cheng was stunned. He had had no contact with him since he returned to Fengtian from the interior. What did his sudden thanks mean?
Before he could wonder, the voice on the other side trembled with emotion: "You asked Miss Hai to come, didn't you? How did you find out that Jinghui and I have no house to live in Fengtian? And you arranged for someone to buy so many household items for us to settle down..."

"I, I don't even know how to thank you."

Jiang Cheng's heart skipped a beat. He knew nothing about this.

Huixin helped them settle down in Fengtian? She didn't say anything.

However, after returning from the interior, Jiang Cheng mentioned to her several times: Jiang Dengxuan, this relative, is generous, resolute, and approachable. He can share weal and woe with the soldiers, values ​​righteousness over profit, and is a talented general worthy of being won over.

I said it myself, but I also thought about how to connect with them...

But he didn't expect that Hai Huixin would help him with this while he was attending the Military Academy and managing his territory.

While he was absent-minded, the image of the savage and bad-tempered eldest lady with a gentle and sensible smile suddenly flashed through his mind, causing him to focus immediately: "Hey, Sixth Brother Chao, what are you talking about? We are all family, so we can't be so polite!"

"Otherwise, now the General Staff Department says that you, the Jiang family, are very righteous and you are valued by Master Shuai... Chao Liu really respects you even more now."

Jiang Dengxuan said with a smile, "When you return to Fengtian, I'll ask Jinghui to cook some delicious dishes, and we can have a drink and chat!"

After a few polite words, Jiang Cheng hung up the phone and connected the call to Liu Runchuan.

The two compared their observations and both believed that the Japanese would definitely take action in the near future.

After communicating with each other, the two men agreed on a contact signal and would come to reinforce if they discovered a Japanese attack.

"How about it?"

Just after all the tasks were assigned, Cai Yuanzong turned around and asked him, "What did Captain Liu say?"

"Okay, he will tell us immediately if there is any situation... In addition, if the Japanese army dares to invade, he will immediately assist us."

After hearing this, Cai Yuanzong's extremely nervous expression receded a little: "Captain Liu is so understanding. When this crisis is over, our 2nd Regiment will definitely repay you."

This act of reinforcing brother troops seems to be a matter of course in modern times;
But during the Republic of China period...especially when various forces were fighting over troops and territory,

Not taking advantage of others' misfortune is a noble act, and Liu Runchuan's behavior is meaningful and precious.

Of course, this also has a lot to do with the fact that they saved him in Xinmin.

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Captain Liu also caught a Japanese spy yesterday. He was gathering intelligence near Xiyingchang—"

"It has been submitted to Brigadier General Sun. He also takes it very seriously and has probably reported it to the commander."

Hai Rushong raised his eyes and said, "Master Shuai will not sit idly by. After all, the area around Fengtian is still his territory."

"It's better to rely on yourself than on anyone else."

Jiang Cheng looked back at the military map on the table, "Even if we have the support of Captain Liu, even if we have the support of the commander in chief in Fengtian, the main force of the Japanese attack will definitely be us!"

He knew very well that the Japanese military and the General Staff were divided into two factions, and they were at loggerheads with each other...

Even the Fengtian Army found it difficult to support each other. Could Sanpu, who was from the military headquarters, really help Feng Delin for nothing?

It seems that the Zongli Party and Babuzab, which the military had supported successively, were defeated, so they turned their attention to Feng Delin.

This time they can give Sanpu and Lao Feng a head-on blow, and the military will definitely regard Lao Feng as a discarded pawn;

In order to cater to Marshal Zhang's control, the General Staff will also try its best to eliminate the subsequent problems caused by the conflict.

Through this battle, the 2nd Regiment can completely control Dapingzhuang and its surrounding areas. This is a battle that will kill three birds with one stone, so we must fight with all our might!

However, just as Jiang Cheng was assigning tasks to everyone, Han Ming trotted in: "Report!"

Seeing his adjutant and driver looking anxious, Jiang Cheng frowned and asked.

"problem occurs……"

"Those Japanese shops are causing trouble on the street!" Jiang Cheng was furious: "Making trouble, right?"

"Pass on my order. Anyone who dares to go out on the streets to cause trouble will be arrested!"

"By the way, after I catch them, I'll identify the shop and seal it up... I don't want their junk."

Several people were shocked at the same time, and they all cast hesitant glances at Jiang Cheng. Even the fearless thief Lao Er said anxiously: "Feilan, aren't you giving the Japanese an excuse?"

"Brother, aren't you most afraid of us being softies? That damn Consul Okawa has come to declare war today. It's useless for us to just lick the hook for the Japanese now."

Jiang Cheng glared back at Hai Pingchuan with a stern face, "Pingchuan, take the people with you!"

"Yes!"

Hai Pingchuan had never seen him so angry before. He immediately stood at attention, saluted, and trotted out.

The military camp was now flooded with a sea of ​​assembled people - the orderly order, coupled with the possibility of conflict breaking out at any time, made the air full of gunpowder.

Officers at all levels personally went into battle, and guns were distributed to everyone; the soldiers were all ready for battle, and their young faces bathed in the sunset were radiant, yet full of anticipation and tension before the great war.

Cai Yuanzong and Jiang Cheng stared at each other for half a minute, then he took a deep breath and prepared to go out. On his left and right, Jiang Cheng and others formed a team.

After a stern speech, Cai Yuanzong explained the battle situation to the soldiers without reservation.

Jiang Cheng was well aware that many people had not yet gotten rid of the identity of "farmers", but the arrogant Japanese consul and the Japanese army made the term "defending the country" more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people than ever before.

"If the Japanese dare to come, we will beat them to death!"

"Kill those damn Japanese!"

Especially those men who had been beaten and drenched in urine before, their roars were particularly loud.

well.

This is what they call victory for those who share the same desire...

However, at this moment the phone in the room rang. Jiang Cheng looked at several people, then trotted in and picked up the receiver.

I thought it was the Marshal calling, but I didn't expect it was actually him, Feng Delin.

"What are you going to do..."

"Today the Japanese consul asked for protection of overseas Chinese. Why did you refuse the entry of the garrison?"

Jiang Cheng became furious when he heard this, but he didn't say anything.

"Fuck, speak up, who answered the phone..."

After cursing for a full half minute, Feng Delin got angry when he didn't hear any response.

"Master Feng, which side are you on?"

Jiang Cheng sneered, "You are really amazing to be in the same boat with the Japanese."

There was silence on the other end of the phone for ten seconds: "Jiang Cheng, what do you mean by that in Daping Village? The 2nd Regiment is still in the battle sequence of my 28th Division. I have the right to request..."

"I don't give a shit about your power or not."

This old guy won't be around for many months, and Jiang Cheng didn't even bother to maintain basic courtesy. "For Feng Yong's sake, Fei Lan will give you some advice."

"I saw him build a tall building, and I saw him collapse."

"Don't stay in this dangerous building anymore. You should just be a clerk who doesn't care about current affairs."

"To be on the same page with the Japanese is like nailing the lid of your own coffin!"
