Chapter 5 No reputation
As he continued listening, Jiang Cheng felt a little short of oxygen.

The men in the hall were all shouting in anger, and they felt that the "alliance" between Feng and Tang was a perfect opportunity.

If we take advantage of the fact that the Marshal has just been promoted to a high-ranking military commander and has not yet established a firm foothold in Fengtian, we can challenge him and perhaps we can "call out" more territory and silver dollars!
"We have been in Xinmin for quite some time, and we have been raising horses and fighting against Mongolian bandits. We brothers are already very frustrated."

"Our cavalry battalion has a legitimate reason for this... We must show our abilities and appear before the division commander."

"That's right. We were the ones who brought back that batch of equipment last time, but that guy named Cai got the advantage for nothing. We can make another great contribution this time, and see what that guy named Cai says!"

No way, just a few of you are actually thinking about how to gain merit and gain benefits by going to Fengtian?
Jiang Cheng became even more crazy.

Having served in the army for two years in the 21st century, he had been immersed in new ideas and almost forgot the mentality of these old soldiers of the Republic of China.

It is indeed unfair to say that they have no intention of defending their territory, but what they really care about is their own interests.

Jiang Cheng's face darkened: Even if the two old men worked together, they would not be a match for the Marshal...

Not to mention that the 28th Division and the 53rd Brigade, from top to bottom, including Feng Tang and the others, each have their own plans:

One side wanted to deal with Wang Xiucai and regain control of Fengtian.

The other side, on the other hand, wanted to gain more benefits for themselves by relying on the army, and even wanted to use Erhu to seize the position of high-ranking military commander.

You still want to compete with the future great man?
Jiang Cheng quickly figured out the whole story and slapped his thigh, secretly cursing his father's unreliable subordinates:

Damn it, no matter what, we have to find a way to persuade him to stop. We must not go along with that lunatic Tang Erhu...

Not only can you not get any benefits, but you will also suffer bad luck!

Before he could think of what to say, the door of the open hall was opened by Jiang Lanxuan.

"You bastard, why are you running here instead of staying in your room and studying?"

With one hand on the whip at his waist, Jiang Lanxuan rushed to his son in a rage.

The evil creature was so frightened that before Jiang Cheng could react, he was slapped in the face by his cheap father.

All he could say was scolding me for being unfilial and useless. He then turned around and yelled at the servants to lock me up immediately and confine me to the house and not to go out.

"Father, you..."

Jiang Cheng felt pain in his head and face, but he was still thinking about the "big thing" and started to yell anxiously, "No matter what, the cavalry battalion cannot follow the superiors to the provincial capital. That, that is nonsense!"

Jiang Lanxuan was even more furious when he heard this, and he simply took out his whip -

When several subordinates saw this, they rushed over to try to stop and persuade him; but except for Gao Wensheng, most of them were just laughing and watching the fun, and some even acted sarcastic and didn't mind making trouble.

You guys are not responsible, but can I just ignore it?
If things get out of hand, it will concern the life and death of our Jiang family!

But when he turned his gaze to Jiang Lanxuan and was about to give the explanation he had prepared, he found that his father had taken out the horsewhip.

"Feilan, what are you doing? Didn't we agree that I'll take you to Baoxiangzhai to eat copper pot meat tonight..."

Gao Wensheng grabbed him tightly and dragged him into the corridor, "Enough, enough, let's not talk about it anymore!"

A good man never suffers a loss in front of him. If he talks to him in front of these old people, Jiang Lanxuan will definitely not listen to him with his overbearing style. If he makes a big fuss, he may even be punished with a belt and fried meat. Jiang Cheng chose to keep quiet and was dragged back to the house by Gao Wensheng.

Gao Wensheng glanced at his angry look and smiled. He patted his shoulder twice and said, "What's wrong with you lately? You keep clamoring about doing something big, but this is not the big thing you should do."

"Come on, stop messing around...Everyone who came to your house today to discuss important matters is your uncle, an elder, and they are loyal to your father."

I can see that no one takes me seriously.

"Shit, who is making trouble?"

He was a little scared to face his father, but after getting to know Gao Wensheng, he started to speak without restraint, "Look, uncle, this bunch of old soldiers has a hard time dealing with the Mongolian bandits, and they still want to go to Fengtian to take advantage?"

Gao Wensheng was startled, and patted him on the shoulder twice: "Stinky boy, how old are you? You are already concerned about the current situation? Stop talking nonsense, we are determined to win this time."

Knowing that he was talking about the alliance with Tang Erhu, Jiang Cheng sighed and said, "How can it be that simple? The governor can hold on to Fengtian, and he must have considerable ability; no matter who we mess with, we will definitely be in trouble in the future."

Seeing his sudden suspicion, Jiang Cheng quickly added: "I just came back from the Marshal's Mansion, and I heard some rumors very closely. In fact, the Marshal has known about the affairs of our 28th Division and 53rd Brigade for a long time... He also transferred Wu Dashetou and Sun Liechen here, just waiting for us to get into his pocket!"

"What are you talking about?"

If he was very relaxed just now, his expression changed immediately after hearing Jiang Cheng's words, "Are you serious?"

"Then there's still a lie!"

Faced with his own confidence, this confidant fell silent, pacing around the room with a sullen face, thinking.

"Uncle, I heard from Xuecheng that... in the next few days, the commander-in-chief will transfer the 53rd Brigade to Xinmin. He will also abolish Tang Erhu's position as brigade commander."

"Uncle, you think you should talk to my dad about this? You can't just dive into a pocket when you see one!"

Seeing that he was getting more and more entangled and hesitant, Jiang Cheng continued, "If you have learned it, it can't be fake, right?"

In fact, he had never heard anyone say this, but he remembered that he was familiar with the young marshal's cousin, and he told him the true events in history in his name.

Although Gao Wensheng listened to him patiently with a serious expression, he smiled again: "Okay Feilan, I will choose a time to tell your father about this matter...but you have to be obedient, don't run around these few days!"

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves and ran out. Jiang Cheng got anxious and wanted to chase him, but he just ran through the corridor like a rabbit and disappeared. Jiang Cheng was so angry that he gritted his teeth:

"You guys...really want to go to the provincial capital!"

"I'll have to give those two unlucky guys a pit the next day... Damn, how can they be so stupid? Even if a bunch of starving dogs want to eat shit, they can't run to it!"

At this moment, several servants in the yard turned their curious eyes to him. Chen Ma smiled bitterly and walked forward: "Master, let's stop talking and go back to the house?"

I can see that the original owner is not only an unfilial descendant in front of his father, but also has no reputation among his subordinates and in the military camp.

Judging from Gao Wensheng's attitude just now, what would happen even if I revealed the vertical development of history to him?

If he doesn’t believe it, how can Jiang Lanxuan and those old guys believe it?
"I think if we want to develop and expand, we have to find another way."

Facing Chen Ma's puzzled face, Jiang Cheng scratched his chin - and at this moment, someone called him from the porch:
"Hey, Feilan, what's going on in your front yard that's making all that noise?"
