The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 287: The Battle between Zhi and Anhui
WTF, a brigade! ?
Jiang Cheng's eyes widened when he heard this. "Good fellow, listen to your tone! Do you know how many soldiers there are near Luanzhou?"

Yu Shanchang and Xu Shuzheng only have seven regiments... You actually want your uncle to send a mixed brigade to accompany you into the pass to meet your match.

You are not coming to Luanzhou for a blind date, you are here to occupy Luanzhou, right?
Jiang Cheng curled his lips. With so many soldiers coming, the Zhi and Anhui families must be facing a powerful enemy, and they will treat us as their enemies!
"Wait a minute, could it be..."

Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng suddenly realized why Lao Duan and Xiao Xu wanted to arrest them.

"What are you talking about?"

Xuecheng and others turned their inquiring gazes over.

"Xuecheng, you came to Luanzhou for a blind date, and your partner is the daughter of Cao Saner, a direct descendant of Cao Saner."

Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and said, "Outside the city, there are probably Cao Kun's direct troops. Although the pigtail army in the capital has been suppressed, the warlords in Zhili, Shandong and even in the south are ready to move."

"Old Duan and Little Xu...can they hold back?"

Everyone was shocked by what he said.

The situation in the Republic of China was complicated and chaotic, and one small move often affected the entire country.

Jiang Cheng stared at Xue Cheng with his eyes slightly narrowed: If you use your kid to socialize with Cao Saner's daughter, Old Duan will definitely think that Shuai Ye might lean towards the Zhili clique.

"Feilan, what you mean is that Old Duan wants to use this method to warn Master Shuai not to act rashly?"

Facing the increasingly alert Anhui troops guarding outside, Hai Pingchuan gritted his teeth and said with difficulty, "Then...if the commander doesn't give in, can we, can we still go back to Siping?"

"And I heard that Feng Delin is also wanted. Even if we can leave the city successfully, it will be difficult to get out of the customs, right?"

Jiang Cheng stopped talking.

With the current situation of three layers inside and outside, it would be difficult for them to escape from Luanzhou City even if they split up into small groups, not to mention taking the two girls out of Shanhaiguan.

While thinking about countermeasures, I suddenly heard Cao Shiying's arrogant voice coming from the European-style corridor: "Damn it! Who does he think he is? How dare he arrest us..."

"Beat him to death! I'll ask my family to beat them to death right now!"

Seeing that his face turned purple and hard to describe, Jiang Cheng said sarcastically: "From what I heard from your little wife, she is quite fierce!"

Raising his hand to punch him back, Xuecheng was also angry and said, "Are you kidding me? I don't believe your Xiaojuan won't get angry!"

Jiang Cheng shrugged and smiled, "Okay, okay, I can't afford to offend you! Let's go and see what Miss Cao is doing."

The few of them approached the door carefully, and heard the sound of clanging and smashing things inside the house. In addition to Cao Shiying's shrill curses, there was also Zhang Tingxue's embarrassed consolation:
"Okay, okay, is it worth getting angry about this?"

"Young Master Jiang and the others are trying to come up with a solution, so don't be too anxious. Just stay here and take good care of yourself for a few days, okay?"

In fact, it would have been better if she hadn't tried to persuade him. But once this matter was really brought up, how could the spoiled young lady bear being frightened, injured, and then detained in Luanzhou and unable to leave the city?

She cursed even more fiercely. Judging from her extremely angry tone, Jiang Cheng would not be surprised even if she rushed out and strangled Yu Shanchang to death on the spot.

The men looked up, and the two girls were instantly silent when their eyes met.

Cao Shiying was holding a gold-painted European vase and was about to smash it, but he quickly stopped.

"Miss Cao, why are you so angry?"

To avoid embarrassment, Jiang Cheng pretended to smile, put his hands in his pockets and winked at Hai Pingchuan.

The latter stepped forward and hurriedly took the vase from her hand, smiling innocently: "Miss Cao, are you okay?"

Although his anger had subsided a bit, when he mentioned his injury, Cao Shiying suddenly became sad and said, "You said you were fine, wuwu... it hurts so much!"

"I'll ask my Uncle Yu to break into the city and kill them all!" Jiang Cheng was secretly shocked.

He was a thoughtful man, and he immediately understood what was going on.

Who else could the Uncle Yu she was referring to be other than Wu Peifu?

Why is Cao San'er so stupid? Your daughter came to Luanzhou for a blind date, and you sent your best general over. Even a fool would feel like he was facing a powerful enemy, right?
Before he could say anything, Zhang Tingxue frowned and said, "Stop talking nonsense!"

"We are not here to demonstrate... If you really bring your Chief Wu to Luanzhou, will the city's garrison let you go?"

"Given the current situation, the garrison officer must have mistakenly thought that your father was planning to take advantage of the capital to mobilize troops, so he sent Commander Wu to fight..."

Unexpectedly, this Seventh Miss actually had such insight. Jiang Cheng couldn't help but look at her meaningfully, and soon smiled knowingly at her.

"Miss Seven's words have really hit the root of the problem."

Facing Cao Shiying's doubts, Jiang Cheng took a deep breath and said, "The marriage between our two families is probably against Old Duan's taboo. Now Marshal Yu is bringing a large army to protect us. Isn't this just a demonstration?"

Even this heroic young general said so, and Cao Shiying was speechless.

After a long while, he stammered, "Then, what should we do?"

"Actually, even if Uncle Yu wanted to come with me, my father wouldn't let him. Although he wasn't as nice as you, Mr. Jiang, he still said that he was afraid of Old Duan's taboos."

"But Uncle Yu said something... something about not showing off his military might, Xu Shuzheng would still do something, isn't that right,"

"Oh, what shall we do? We are really being held captive in the city now!"

Wu Peifu was famous for his arrogance and pride, and he was three levels higher than Guo Guizi of the Fengtian Army.

When he got angry, he didn't care about Feng Huafu and Cao Saner. If he didn't have the loyal and patriotic temperament of an old-fashioned scholar, he would have rebelled against his mother during Cao Kun's reign.

Now that he has arrived, even if Luanzhou really started a war because of his fault, he will never withdraw his troops given his temper...

And even if they withdraw their troops, can Old Duan and Xiao Xu withdraw their troops?
The fire has been burning for quite some time!

"Feilan, what should we do?"

Xuecheng also became nervous, "Yucheng and your chief of staff have been gone for so long, the French won't be able to help us get out of the city, right?"

Even if those two guys from Renault want to make money, the French won't help them.

Jiang Cheng lowered his eyebrows: "At this point, the only way is to alert Master Shuai."

"Also... I think I should go meet up with Lao Yu. After all, it's better to resolve a feud than to create one!"

…………

As soon as the call was connected, Jiang Dengxuan's anxious voice came from the phone: "Feilan! The news from Luanzhou just arrived, and the Chief of the General Staff called us over."

"How are you and Zhu Qing?"

Jiang Cheng was touched to hear the worried voice of his usually calm brother.

"We are all fine - there were some conflicts when we went to rob Xuecheng, and I lost four brothers."

Jiang Cheng had just considered the wording and was about to discuss with Brother Chao Liu about how to discuss this matter with the Marshal, when the other side quickly said, "Feilan, don't worry. The Marshal has already taken the Chief of Staff to see Xu Shuzheng."

"This matter... can be settled."
