The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 277: Entering the Pass Again
Jiang Cheng was embarrassed by what he said, and said awkwardly: "Look at what you said, as if I don't want to stay at home with my wife and children..."

"Alright, alright, just say these words! But don't say them to Xiaojuan, or she'll be suspicious enough."

This woman's hormones changed after giving birth, and her temper became relatively irritable and out of control - they had two fights just a few days after Cai Chanjuan was brought to Siping. Jiang Cheng has been hiding in the military camp these days and doesn't want to go home. Instead, Hai Huixin, Chunyan and Hongxiu always come to persuade them.

"I don't care, but you can't let my sister down!"

Cai Yuanming was not relenting. "Tell you that the rumor has spread everywhere in Siping recently. You are going to get married again!"

what! ?

Holy shit, I haven’t even started planning on going to Beijing for a blind date with Xuecheng yet, who on earth is talking so fast?

However, before he could curse, the quick-tongued Cai Yuanzong pointed at Hai Pingchuan and cursed: "It's his sister! Everyone in the group said that you should let Huixin be the first wife."

"I'm telling you, if she becomes the first wife, I'll kill you with a knife. Anyway, your Jiang family already has an heir."

Damn, what does this have to do with anything?

"Brother, do you still look like an official? You still want to criticize me... Is this something you, as the second uncle, should say?"

Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes at him, "How shameless."

Cai Yuanming didn't care about decorum. He glared and was about to continue talking when Ye Hai, one of Jiang Cheng's guards, came in and shouted, "Sir, Commander Sun is here!"

Commander Sun?
Everyone was stunned and turned their eyes to Ye Hai. Jiang Cheng was overjoyed and immediately stood up from behind his desk and walked out. He laughed loudly at the young man who came in, "Oh, Brother Nan, I finally got you here!"

Sun Zhengnan is a top student at Yenching University.

When they went to Jinzhou to study, Yang Yuting arranged him to serve as a bodyguard for Zhang Hanqing and others.

On the second day after Jiang Cheng settled down in Siping, he asked Jiang Dengxuan to investigate this person.

I thought I had a good personal relationship with Yang Yuting, but I didn't expect that Sun Zhengnan was actually the political enemy of this Chief of General Staff.

Because of Yang Yuting's promotion, a group of old advisers around the Marshal were squeezed out, and Sun Zhengnan was an unlucky person.

He was not a core figure in the old General Staff, but was also purged by Yang Yuting.

In addition to these, Sun Zhengnan and he are from the same hometown, and with the support of being a top student at Yenching University, Jiang Cheng asked his brother Chao Liu to pass on a message, saying that if Sun Zhengnan was willing, he would ask the Marshal to bring him over.

"How was it? Did you have a smooth journey? I'm very busy with mundane affairs in Siping recently, otherwise I would have asked Han Ming to send a car to pick you up."

He asked him to hand the luggage to Ye Hai, and walked back with his arm around his shoulders, "Brothers, you all recognize me, right? From now on, Commander Sun, you will be the chief of staff of our regiment!"

Sun Zhengnan waved his hands when he heard this: "No, Feilan, it's not appropriate for you to take such a high position when I just arrived..."

Jiang Cheng interrupted him immediately: "There's nothing inappropriate! I dare not say anything about other places, but in Siping - I have the final say!"

"Alright, alright. There's no rush to hand over the work. Take a couple of days off and come with me to the capital."

Sun Zhengnan was silent for a few seconds and immediately responded.

Wow, I was assigned such a big job just after I arrived - no wonder they say there is no free lunch in the world.

Zhang Xun, the leader of the queue army, entered Beijing. Just as Jiang Cheng knew the history, the whole capital was in chaos. Old Feng of the Zhili clique, Old Duan of the Anhui clique, and even warlords from all sides, even the south, all wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to gain some advantage.

Feng Delin lost power repeatedly, and fell all the way from Fengtian City to Zhengjiatun. Now he can't even keep Zhengjiatun... He can only lead his troops to camp outside Siping under the arrangement of Jiang Cheng, a "wild boy" in his eyes.

As soon as the braided general in the interior extended an olive branch to him, this impatient old man felt that he was in good shape again.

If he goes to the capital and makes contributions to the throne, he will surely be able to make a comeback! In addition, Jiang Cheng had been "blowing this wind" to his son Feng Yong before, so the old man has been packing his luggage recently.

Everyone thought that Jiang Cheng would also join in the fun, but only Hai Pingchuan knew the inside story:
He didn’t support Bian Shuai at all. Jiang Cheng’s purpose in entering the Guan was exactly the same as Xue Cheng’s… to go on a blind date.

And the blind date partner was none other than Zhang Zuoxian’s seventh daughter, Zhang Tingxue.

Seeing the intention of winning over, Jiang Cheng simply did not refuse.

Although he realized in this war that these warlords were by no means "like-minded" as he was, it was unrealistic for them to "break away from Fengtian" in a short period of time.

He married his immediate superior's daughter and took over Jilin with him - besides, Jilin had access to the sea, so it was possible that after the two Zhi-Feng Wars, he could develop in the rear and take over Heilongjiang Province as well.

Will you still be afraid of the Japanese at that time?
So when the call came, Jiang Cheng readily agreed without thinking too much.

After packing his luggage and arranging the work in Siping, he took Hai Pingchuan, Yang Yucheng and Sun Zhengnan, as well as a team of more than 300 light cavalry, and went to the capital with Feng Delin one after the other.

However, when Xuecheng had just passed Shanhaiguan after meeting him in Fengtian, Jiang Cheng suddenly ordered to change the route to Luanzhou.

No one knows what the current situation in the capital is... A shrewd old fox once said that the water inside the pass is deep and muddy, and if you rush in, you will definitely be in big trouble.

"What's going on? It seems like our road is different from that of my uncle."

Seeing that he and Feng Delin were about to part ways, Xue Cheng became a little anxious, "Are you not going to the capital?"

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "I thought you were quite smart now. You could tell it at a glance, right?"

"Don't worry about finding your wife. Let's go to Luanzhou first. I called Xiao Xu when we were in Shanhaiguan, and asked his subordinate Lao Yu to arrange food and accommodation for us."

The previous time they entered the country to obtain the batch of 4000 million worth of equipment, it was Yu Shanchang, a subordinate of Xu Shuzheng, who led them into the country. This time, he was also meeting an old friend.

"Are you worried about a fight in the capital?"

His words made Jiang Cheng suddenly turn his gaze away.

More than a month has passed since the day he tried to "accomplish merit" but was injured by the Japanese.

His eyeball was not saved, and now he can only use his right eye with a single eyepatch - although the injury is only in the eye, Bao Yulin's death has also brought a lot of trouble and psychological trauma... This peer seems to have aged a lot overnight.

"Yes, but not really."

Jiang Cheng thought about it and decided to tell him the truth, "I'm afraid that once Third Master enters the capital, he will never come back."

He was suddenly shocked, but he quickly calmed down.

"What about us?"

Hearing his question, Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "It won't delay anything. Once I enter Luanzhou, I will invite two more families—"

"Let the two ladies come over here. I also want to meet some friends in Luanzhou."

After the first dispute between the government and the parliament, although the defeated old Duan was "recuperating" in Luanzhou, others were not idle.

In addition to wanting to find out the situation of the Anhui clique, Jiang Cheng also wanted to meet some of the people surrounding them...

As World War I was about to end, a new round of arms race was quietly brewing;
