The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

In such weather, Yang Yuting did not say hello to anyone and quietly led the main force of the Fengtian Army to Jinzhou.

He clearly felt that Jiang Cheng had already dealt a heavy blow to Guo Jun, and this was a good opportunity to grab the credit.

If he could lead his men to break through and defeat the rebels, General Staff Yang would become the greatest contributor to the Fengtian Army and his position would be unshakable.

But Jiang Cheng knew very well:

Yang Yuting's idea is good, but in reality he is destined to fall flat on his face.

The two of them combined are no match for Guo Songling——

Not to mention Guo Guizi, when Yang Yuting was the commander-in-chief for the first time, he put a huge number of 120,000 people into this big game, but Wu Peifu killed more than 70,000 of them in ten days.

The Marshal cursed afterwards: Even if there were more than 70,000 pigs for Wu Xiucai to catch, it would take more than half a month, right? It cost me 30 million military funds, and pigs are so expensive!
At that time, those words were meant to scold his runaway subordinates, but in fact, viewed from another level, this Chief of General Staff was an expert in running factories, handling personnel work, and even playing tricks... but when he really went to the battlefield, he was definitely not good enough.

As for Zhang Hanqing now, he is in his twenties and full of vigor. Moreover, in recent years, whether it is the affairs of the army or the battle, it is basically Guo Songling who does the work for him.

In addition, he had fought several favorable games with some Fengtian Army veterans, which made the young marshal think that he was also a good commander, and even said that Wu Peifu was no better than him.
In addition, the new weapons that Jiang Cheng brought this time gave him an illusion that even Guo Songling was no more capable than him.

"Han Qing will suffer a great loss."

Looking at the weather outside the window which was gradually getting gloomy again, Jiang Cheng suddenly said something sullenly.

…………

The main force of the Fengtian Army had just rushed out of Jinzhou when Sun Liechen, accompanied by two guards, rushed into the command center with a sick look on his face.

"Ahem, ahem...why didn't you stop him? This is going to be a disaster!"

He sat down weakly on the armchair, the lividity on his face clearly not due to the extreme cold outside.

Looking back at this loyal and capable Fengtian Army veteran, Jiang Cheng lowered his eyes.

Originally, according to history, he had died of illness due to overwork a year ago... Jiang Cheng knew this, so he tried his best to find famous doctors and good medicine for him, so that he could keep this brave general who lived to a ripe old age.

But seeing that he looked a little sad, Jiang Cheng smiled calmly: "Sixth Uncle, look at your body, why are you rushing to the headquarters in such a cold weather?"

"Han Qing is not as weak as you think. Besides, Chief of Staff Yang brought the commander's elite troops with him this time."

Jiang Cheng waved his hand at Xu Fushan, asking him to bring a cup of hot ginseng tea, and then said, "Besides, with Jinzhou at your back...if you really can't win, don't you still have me?"

Sun Liechen glanced at him hesitantly, then lowered his head and sighed, "Feilan, let me be honest with you!"

"Even if you really can't defeat this Guo devil, you must not let Han Qing get into trouble - I heard that Feng Yuxiang has joined forces with a lot of people, and the war in Rehe is tense, you can't be distracted!"

What you mean is that you are afraid that while I am here, my heart is with my father in Rehe?

But what he said is true, he is my father...that vast territory is almost entirely under my jurisdiction.

But then again, if I really don't want to help the Zhang family, Jilin can just stay away like Heilongjiang Province, so why bother adding unnecessary details here?
Jiang Cheng smiled again and sat down opposite him: "Sixth Uncle, I really don't like what you said." "Jilin also made great efforts to suppress the rebellion this time... Even until now, we haven't thought about sending them back! Don't worry, there is Shu Zheng in Rehe, plus Ji Jinchun and my uncle. I don't think Feng Yuxiang alone can cause any trouble."

But before he could finish his words, Sun Liechen grabbed his wrist and said, "Feilan, even if Sixth Uncle invites you... No, please go with me!"

"This Guo Guizi, I'm afraid, cough cough cough——"

Before he could finish his words, his throat was once again choked by a violent cough. Seeing his dim eyes, Jiang Cheng sighed and said, "Sixth Uncle, we are all family, so I'll make it clear."

"Even if I pull my brothers out now and help them win this battle, what do some people think?"

"Besides, although the current battle to suppress the rebellion is related to our handsome father and son, doesn't Yang Yuting have anything to do with it? He is very smart and a capable person around the handsome man—"

"But it is also true that he cannot tolerate talented people, is closed to communication, and has been trying every means to exclude other generals. Mao Chen is wrong, and I think Yang Yuting also has his problems!"

Sun Liechen gritted his teeth: he understood that the young commander in front of him was planning to use Guo Songling to teach Yang Yuting a lesson.

But isn’t this price too high?
"Okay Feilan--"

Sun Liechen stood up with difficulty. "I, ah! I'll take my leave first."

…………

After one snowfall, the second one comes.

What is more deadly than the snow is the wind, which blew in with snowflakes and hung on the face, hands and neck, as sharp as a saber.

Anyone who dares to go out in this kind of weather is a warrior, and anyone who dares to charge into battle with weapons is even more of a death squad.

"The scouts reported that Guo Songling's camp is over there—"

It was no longer possible to ride the horse, Yang Yuting shouted loudly to Zhang Hanqing.

The young marshal could no longer tell the direction, and even could hardly distinguish between heaven and earth. The wind was howling like ghosts and wolves, blowing the snow all over in a grayish-white color, and in front of him were "knives" running across, which was almost life-threatening.

Even the cars were frozen to the point of being dead, lying in calf-deep snow... A large amount of combat supplies had to be abandoned on the spot, and had to be transported entirely by the cavalry's horses.

Before they set out, none of them had thought they would encounter such a heavy snowstorm. Besides, the distance from Jinzhou to Gaoqiao to reinforce Sun Jiunian was only about 10 to 20 miles.

If the weather is good, we don't need to set out in the morning and arrive in the evening, we can arrive in a short time with a quick march;
But with the sudden snowstorm, let alone a forced march...it was hard to even breathe against the wind, not to mention that these soldiers were carrying weapons and equipment and their own supplies, which made the movement even more difficult.

"In front, right in front!"

There was a faint light of fire near a forest in the snow and wind. The brothers fighting in the front suddenly became extremely excited and immediately formed an attack formation under the command of Yang Yuting.

Victory or defeat doesn't seem so important in this freezing weather... Everyone's hope is that it will end sooner rather than later.

"Brothers, charge!" (End of this chapter)
