The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 316: Big Sister Covers Up
The small heels looked very lonely on the marble floor of the western-style building. Jiang Cheng felt someone lightly bumped against his shoulder. He turned around and saw Zhao Xishun looking at him with a slightly mischievous look.

She wants to talk to me privately?

Jiang Cheng understood immediately, straightened his clothes and followed closely, but he didn't expect Yu Fengzhi to go around the corridor, walk down a flight of stairs and stand in front of the dome window in the corridor.

This place is opposite the antechamber where the banquet is being held, but because there is a flight of stairs and a distance of about ten steps, it is not very noisy...

Jiang Cheng was somewhat impressed by her thoughtfulness: she found a quiet place but didn't hide herself from anyone.

After all, they are all people with different identities.

"You're going to the capital to meet the French, right?"

Jiang Cheng never expected that this young lady would be even more straightforward than Hai Pingchuan, which gave him a big shock.

How did she know?
Oh no, could it be those three talkative wives of mine?
That's unlikely. I've told them over and over again that the news must not be leaked out.

Moreover, Yu Fengzhi had never been to Siping as a guest.

It's really terrible! She knows everything, does it mean that the Marshal also knows... I can't let the Marshal know about my batch of tanks!
His nerves were suddenly tense, but Jiang Cheng still tried his best to maintain a relatively calm expression on the surface.

"I don't quite understand what you mean, Madam."

Faced with his avoidance of the question, Yu Fengzhi slowly turned her head, raised her eyelids and glanced at him faintly.

"You're still going to hide it from me, aren't you?"

Yu Fengzhi turned her face towards the lonely night scene outside the window, which seemed to be a scene from two completely different worlds compared to the lively feast behind her.

"Don't be nervous. I haven't told Dad about this yet."

Yu Fengzhi spoke word by word, "Since my daughter was born, Dad has handed over all the big and small things at home to me."

"It was revealed to me by a Japanese businessman who has been cooperating with my family for a long time. Feilan, tell me the truth, what did you buy?"

Machino is such an unreliable pig. He should have just looked for someone, but he went around in circles and almost killed me!

Jiang Cheng gritted his teeth silently.

How to answer?
To be honest, it won't work: with such heavy firepower, the Marshal will probably try to intercept it, right?

But if he didn't tell the truth, with Yu Fengzhi's intelligence and even their spies, if they were really exposed in the future, not only would they be intercepted... the Marshal would definitely suspect that he was doing something behind the scenes.

His current strength is not enough to be independent, and he will be in big trouble when that time comes!

"I...can't answer that."

Jiang Cheng took a deep breath, "You are three years older than me, Fei Lan has always treated you as my elder sister."

"There are some things I can answer, but if I really answer them, it will not be good for either of us."

"If you believe me, don't ask me about this anymore... I can only say that Fei Lan believes he has a clear conscience towards the Fengtian Army, the Marshal, and the entire Northeast."

Yu Fengzhi was stunned.

She turned her gaze to Jiang Cheng again in panic: "You bought weapons from the French, right?"

Jiang Cheng did not comment.

"You are so capable! You just got married to Xue'er and..."

Having said that, Jiang Cheng lowered his eyebrows, shook his head and smiled: "Hey, I'm going to tell you something you may not believe, but she arranged this for me when I went to Luanzhou for a blind date."

Yu Fengzhi's eyes were slightly meaningful. After a while, she let out a long breath and said, "Okay! For Xue'er's sake, I will pretend that I don't know about this! But, how can you hide it from my dad?"

"Also, if he really finds out, what will you say?"

Jiang Cheng simply put his hands behind his head and acted like a rogue: "What can I say? I'll just say that it was my elder sister who helped me and the Frenchman buy these things!"

Since Zhang Hanqing met her, he never called her by her name, nor did he call her wife or anything like that. He always addressed her as "big sister".

Facing this familiar address, Yu Fengzhi looked at his demeanor and movements, and instead smiled bitterly like a deputy eldest sister and shook her head: "Are all people your age like this?"

Jiang Cheng didn't dare to offend the beauty again, and quickly straightened his posture and expression: "No, no! Big sister is the best... My equipment is extraordinary. You must help cover it up!"

Yu Fengzhi looked at him again and again, nodded silently and agreed, and then said:
"Feilan, you are quite capable. I heard from my uncle that you are in contact with her third sister and are looking for medical talents from the United States?"

"Why, are you planning to open a hospital or something?"

Jiang Cheng knew that the tank issue was a done deal. With the help of Yu Fengzhi and Machino, the green light would be on all the way to Siping when entering the country.

However, he did not expect Zhang Tinghui to take his words seriously. Now that the other party asked him about it, he led the beautiful woman downstairs to the banquet while casually saying that the border area of ​​Siping also wanted to open two foreign hospitals.

Now we don’t want to go through Japan’s hands, we still want to use our own people.

The banquet lasted for two days. Jiang Cheng took Zhang Tingxue to socialize in Fengtian as the principal wife. She met many new talents recruited by the Marshal and also became acquainted with some tycoons in the provincial capital.

The next day, the couple, along with their guards, boarded a train to Tianjin with Feng Yong.

The war inside the Great Wall was said to have completely stopped, but the confrontation between the Zhili and Anhui armies was becoming more and more tense day by day.

There is currently no direct railway route to Jingcheng, so they have to go to Tianjin first and then change to a military vehicle.

The journey was peaceful, but the temperature suddenly warmed up once we passed Shanhaiguan, making people who were used to the severe cold in the north feel a little uncomfortable.

On the day they arrived in Tianjin, someone from Xu Shuzheng's side came personally to pick them up and let them stay at the Fengtian Army Headquarters in Tianjin.

The conditions are excellent, much more comfortable than some hotels run by foreigners.

But what they didn't expect was that on the second day after they settled down, military governors from all over the country gathered here to hold a meeting.

The dispute between the government and the parliament had entered a white-hot stage at this time - but to put it bluntly, it had some direct or indirect relationship with the Beiyang warlords in various provinces, and now the pro-war and pro-peace factions were having a great time.

Old Duan and Little Xu were making a lot of noise, but Feng Huafu advocated peace...

The Anhui clique is now in a state of confusion and is eager to win over more people to its camp.

"Feilan, I think we should move to a hotel today?"

Seeing the people in front of him having a great time arguing, Feng Yong seemed a little worried. "We shouldn't get involved in this, right?"

Jiang Cheng shook his head: "We have to wait for Xu Shuzheng to come and handle the formalities for your father, and then we can rescue the third uncle with the order from the general manager!"

"Let them make a fuss, but we just don't get involved."

Although he said so, Jiang Cheng felt a little uneasy - but the Fengtian Army, which was no longer what it used to be, was their biggest support;

Their value has doubled inside the Great Wall now, and no one would target them.

But Jiang Cheng never expected that Lao Duan and Xiao Xu really didn't treat them as dishes, but the real dishes had already been served.
