The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

348 Tank
In other words, she knew the situation in Changchun and even Jilin at a glance, and could roughly calculate it just by counting on her fingers.

"I really admire you. You even wanted to fool her."

Jiang Cheng glared at the man helplessly, pushed him aside and walked out, "What are you looking at? Lead the way, where are the people?"

Knowing that his master was straightforward, Sun Zhengnan hurriedly trotted after him, and told him what Yu Fengzhi had asked and seen today in an attempt to collude with him...

However, as soon as they went out, they saw the young lady, followed by her bodyguard Wu Dongyun, walking towards them.

He knew Lao Wu: he was Zhao Xishun’s good friend, and he had accompanied Xuecheng to Xinmin to find him before.

After rolling his eyes, Jiang Cheng walked over and said with a smile, "I was wondering when you would come. Fei Lan is really too busy every day."

However, he didn't expect that his enthusiasm would be met with a cold response. The young lady of the Zhang family changed her usual gentle demeanor, glanced at him lazily, and went straight to his big office.

It wasn't like this yesterday. How did I offend her?
Jiang Cheng felt that she was very unhappy, but he really couldn't figure out the reason for her change of mood.

It can't be that they found out anything, right?

The gold that the rebels of the Qing Dynasty had obtained had not been moved at all, and it was not on the account books.

The things were still well hidden in the underground passage of Siping Public Office, and even Hai Pingchuan and Bayin, who was in charge of escorting them, didn't know about it.

The only thing he was afraid of was that Yu Fengzhi would look through his account books and find out that he was doing business...

You have to know that the Northeast has barely started its industrial development yet. Once it becomes prosperous, no one knows whether that old fox will become jealous.

He followed Jiang Cheng into the house with his hands in his pockets. Before Jiang Cheng could say anything, Yu Fengzhi spoke first: "Feilan, kick out all the unreliable people first?"

"I have something important to tell you."

Startled for a moment, Jiang Cheng raised his head and looked back at the beautiful face, preparing a serious expression.

"Lao Sun, you stay, and the others go out."

After saying this, Yu Fengzhi left Wu Dongyun as a witness. Jiang Cheng understood that she was also trying to get him to avoid suspicion.

"Feilan, what exactly is that batch of goods coming from Malacca?"

When the entire office fell into silence, Yu Fengzhi suddenly spoke.

This was more serious than if she knew about his "doing business". Jiang Cheng's heart was pounding wildly.

Jiang Cheng kept his composure on his face. He smiled and asked his chief of staff to prepare refreshments for Yu Fengzhi. He raised his right hand and guided her to sit down: "Madam, you should know this too, right?"

"Xue'er married and moved to Changchun, so naturally she had to buy some necessities of life - the daughter of the assistant commander cannot suffer any injustice."

Yu Fengzhi sat down with a calm expression, and elegantly adjusted her sitting posture and the off-white cheongsam shawl: "Feilan! Are you still going to hide this from me?"

As he spoke, he took a few documents from Wu Dongyun and handed them to him, "Take a look! Due to the tense political situation, Tianjin Port is temporarily closed--"

"All the imported goods of our Fengtian Army, big or small, are shipped through Shanghai."

Yu Fengzhi's calm expression was now filled with obvious worry. "The goods were seized as soon as they entered Shanghai, and the declaration form was submitted to the customs. In addition to the local business management, the British Concession also sent people to inquire about it!" Jiang Cheng was now completely uneasy.

Damn! Why did these tanks have such a bad fate?

The logistics was only made possible by tricking the Japanese. After finally getting through customs clearance, Jiang Cheng was still thinking about asking Hai Pingchuan to go to Tianjin or Qinhuangdao to pick up the goods in person...

Unexpectedly, the situation in North China was tense, and this French merchant ship actually changed its mind and went to Shanghai without authorization.

Maybe they were thinking about the French concession in Shanghai?
It’s unknown what these bastards are thinking...but these tanks can’t be lost.

Jiang Cheng couldn't help rubbing his hands. Looking at his expression, Yu Fengzhi guessed that this batch of goods labeled "Xue'er's Stuff" was of extraordinary importance.

"Young grandma."

Jiang Cheng's expression suddenly tightened, and he finally chose to tell the truth to Yu Fengzhi, "In that case, I'd better tell you everything!"

"It's a batch of arms... It can be said to be a batch of extraordinary weapons and equipment! I even dare to say that this thing is enough to change our commander-in-chief and the important combat readiness of the Fengtian Army in the future!"

Looking back at this handsome face that appeared so solemn, Yu Fengzhi couldn't help but be stunned.

After a while, she stood up and said, "No wonder both Britain and France are negotiating with the Marshal’s Mansion—"

"Ah, what a coincidence! My father-in-law has entered the customs to mediate between the Zhi and Anhui families, and the matter... has all come to me."

Jiang Cheng understood as soon as he heard this: Under the current circumstances, the British should be taking the opportunity to seize his equipment in an attempt to blackmail Marshal Zhang, the supreme ruler of the Fengtian Army.

Fortunately, this matter did not come directly to Shuai Ye, but was secretly intercepted by Yu Fengzhi!
"Madam, I really don't know what to say..."

As he spoke, Jiang Cheng stepped forward, took off his military cap and bowed to her. "Thank goodness you've intervened! To be honest, this batch of goods is very important - and even if it reaches Changchun, I may not be able to deliver it."

"Ah! You are so smart, I will just tell you the truth!"

"This batch of equipment was jointly funded by Xue'er and I. We bought a batch of tanks from the French. These iron guys can withstand gunfire, and the most important thing is that they also have artillery turrets, which are great for conquering cities."

Yu Fengzhi was so smart that even if she didn't quite understand what a tank was, she could tell the importance of this thing from the way he was taking it so seriously and even humbly begging her.

"Hurry up and get up! You are already the acting commander, and yet you are still so disrespectful!"

Yu Fengzhi suddenly felt the pressure coming, especially the unprecedented masculinity of this man, which made her face hot unconsciously, "Come on... Don't think I'm doing this for your sake,"

"If I hadn't heard Xue'er say it once before, I would have reported it to my father-in-law a long time ago."

She said this somewhat against her will, and then forced herself to calm down. "So, how are you going to deal with this? Let me tell you this, the British are holding back on this batch of goods, probably because they want to squeeze out some benefits from it—"

"This matter needs to be dealt with quickly, the sooner the better, and the fewer people alerted the better."

Understanding what she meant, Jiang Cheng said with gratitude: "That's right! At first I always thought that once the goods arrived in China, things would be easy..."

I didn’t expect that a weak country really has no diplomacy. They can use any random thing as an excuse to seize the goods on the ship!
If they had a million strong soldiers, powerful ships and powerful guns, would these foreign guys still dare to covet their goods?
"Yucheng originally planned to go to Shanghai after the Spring Festival. I think... we don't have to wait until after the Spring Festival."
