The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

"Hey, I think this family is really rude. We sent the young lady back to their family, and then, they didn't even bother to let us stay for a while?"

As soon as he got on the car, Feng Yong said unhappily, "They say that we Northeasterners are barbarians who don't know etiquette. I think these Southerners are even more barbaric and unreasonable."

Jiang Cheng chuckled: "They all talk like southern barbarians - okay, I'm just talking nonsense! The Song family is a well-known wealthy businessman in Shanghai. It's a bit exaggerated to say that they are rich enough to rival a country, but it's normal for these rich people to be arrogant."

Feng Yong disagreed: "So what if they have money? I think they formed this game today just because they saw that the war in Shanghai was about to start and they wanted to bet on it."

Jiang Cheng smiled: "You figured it out too? Han Qing, needless to say, this beauty trap is really good. If we occupy Shanghai in the future, he will definitely make life easier for the Song family for Miss Meiling's sake."

"It goes without saying that Qi Xieyuan is someone who offered himself to them. Lu He and the Northern Expedition Army are all the ones they are betting on! Sure, no matter who takes over Shanghai in the future, the Song family will continue to be rich."

Feng Yong nodded but said unhappily: "Humph, it's these villains who are like fish in water."

Seeing that he was different from his usual gentle and elegant self today, Jiang Cheng raised his eyebrows and laughed: "I was wondering what's wrong with you today? In this chaotic world, being slick, treacherous, or being a villain is the way to survive!"

"I see. You can't stand that Qi guy, right?"

Seeing his noncommittal look, Jiang Cheng blinked and smiled mysteriously: "Since you have made my brother Feng so angry, let's perform the next good show well."

The expression of his good brother made Feng Yong put away the displeasure caused by the Song family's rudeness. He was curious and wanted to ask, but he didn't expect Jiang Cheng to urge Ju Han Mingkai to leave the city quickly, leaving the nobleman confused.

That night, Jiang Cheng, at the command post on the outer edge of the city defense, ordered Jiang Dengxuan, who had been staying outside, to assemble the heavy armored troops and be ready to provide support at any time.

Feng Yong had no idea what his boss was planning to do. He just listened to him and thought that this might be a good opportunity to inflict a heavy blow on Wu Peifu, and they must not miss it.

This made him even more confused. After all, their negotiations with Qi Xieyuan at Du Mansion had generally revolved around the word "peace" - how did it suddenly become about dealing a heavy blow to Wu Peifu?
But the confident smile on Jiang Cheng's face made Feng Yong confused.

After a dreamless night's sleep, Jiang Cheng changed into his military uniform early in the morning and was at the command center assigning tasks to his subordinates.

All the tanks were being inspected and refueled. Engineers were busy running around in these steel behemoths. The overwhelming battle atmosphere instantly made everyone's adrenaline surge.

"Tingshu is under a lot of pressure near Zhoushan, and Pingchuan is under a lot of pressure in Shandong. We have to solve the problems in Jiangsu and Zhejiang as soon as possible."

After assigning the tasks, Jiang Cheng straightened up and announced to his subordinates, "I have already agreed with the Marshal that at the beginning of next month at the latest, a large force of my Fengtian Army will enter the pass and fight with the Zhili Army... to avenge our previous humiliation!"

Including Jiang Dengxuan, all the officers present were surprised and delighted; only Feng Yong looked surprised. After all his subordinates left the scene and began to perform their respective tasks, he stepped forward and said in amazement:
"Feilan, I haven't heard that Master Shuai has made a similar decision—"

"Did he tell you about it through Han Qing?"

The Northern Expedition Army and the new-school officers have always been more active in entering the Pass, while the old-school represented by Wu Junsheng has always insisted on defending the Northeast and has no interest in "revenge" on the Zhi Army.

"Haha, what I did... can be considered as a false imperial decree." Jiang Cheng seemed to not care about lying at all, and quickly changed the subject, "Whether we can resolve the war near Jiangsu and Zhejiang as soon as possible depends on my plan."

…………

Just as the Fengtian Army armored forces on the outskirts of Shanghai began to assemble and prepare for deployment, Lu Yongxiang and He Fenglin's Anhui Army began to attack Qi Xieyuan's troops.

It wasn't that both parties suddenly figured it out, or there was any other reason, but that day at the Du Mansion, they met near Shanghai and started a "feint attack."

Because Qi Xieyuan's troops were severely damaged by Jiang Cheng's armored forces, he did not want to wade into the muddy waters of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang battlefields again;
So he made up an excuse, saying that Wu Peifu forced him to attack the coalition forces of Lu and He, and he could not refuse. He wanted to fight a fake battle in front of the coalition forces, and then pretend to be defeated and dispersed, so that he could leave the battlefield in Jiangsu and Zhejiang safely.

For this kind of villain who has lost his will to fight and is two-faced... Jiang Cheng is willing to do him a favor and "send" him out of the battlefield in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Moreover, the old man also promised Jiang Cheng that once he left this place safely, he would "reward" them with 10 silver dollars.

When discussing this matter, both Lu and He had ambiguous expressions on their faces, thinking that all crows are the same, and it turned out that this Jiang guy, who acted so righteous, was actually a connoisseur.

However, what neither of them expected was that Jiang Cheng not only had no intention of letting any of them go, but... he also used the unfortunate Qi Xieyuan as bait.

As soon as the battle line was drawn, both sides fired shots into the air - in the past, when warlords fought each other, they would fire a few cannons and shout and curse in front of the battle line, but today even this process was completely omitted.

But at the so-called crossfire point, a strange change suddenly occurred.

Accompanied by a series of loud trumpet sounds, a fully armed team suddenly emerged, bypassing the confrontation between the two sides and launched a fierce attack on the coalition forces formed by Lu and He!
The original order received from their superiors was to launch a "feint attack"...so the Lu-He coalition was not on guard. A few soldiers who were firing their guns in vain were smoking cigarettes, looking leisurely and relaxed.

Seeing the Zhi army coming down the mountain like a tiger, several people were frightened and screamed. Just as they were turning around to run towards the camp, a burst of crazy shooting instantly overwhelmed them.

"This Wu guy is really hot-tempered and does what he says."

At this time, Jiang Cheng, who was lying in ambush in the distance, was standing in a patch of wild woods and looking over there.

The view through the telescope was filled with smoke and flames of war, and stray bullets were flying everywhere... Jiang Cheng couldn't help but draw a sly smile at the corner of his lips, and immediately ordered the communication platoon: "Brothers, attack immediately!"

"It's time for us to perform - everyone go to Wu Peifu's base camp!"

Feng Yong on the side was extremely surprised and asked him repeatedly how he knew that Wu Peifu would come to attack the coalition forces?

Jiang Cheng didn't rush to answer, but first redistributed the tasks, then smiled smugly: "Brother Feng, think about it carefully - would Yu Shuai miss such an opportunity?" (End of this chapter)
