The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 378 "Accept All"

"Master Jiang, what you said is really boring!"

Before Wang Junshan could speak, Jin Yanxi leaned aside and said, "Let's be honest. In the current situation in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces, it is clear that Commander Wu intends to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight—"

Ding Chunxi also interrupted and said, "Master Jiang, I think you don't need to test us! Since we have made up our minds to come to you, we must be loyal to you and hold the reins..."

Wang Junshan also expressed his opinion: "Master Jiang, I will just take the initiative this time. If there is anyone among you who knows your temper best, it must be me, Wang Junshan."

"You have always been approachable and kind to others. Even if the Cai family treated you badly in the past, you should still treat them well because of your friendship with the Cai family for many years."

Several officers also expressed that it was because Jiang Cheng's attitude towards others and his temperament were admirable... In fact, it can be summed up in one sentence:

We think we will have a lot of meat to eat if we follow you, the commander-in-chief - that old man Wu Junsheng is too calculating, and we feel guilty!

Now that things have come to this, there is no need for Jiang Cheng to avoid the temptation any longer.

He suddenly put his hand on the desk in front of him and stood up with a bang.

Everyone was stunned and stood up at the same time.

"You are all seniors of the Fengtian Army. Fei Lan is really impressed by your love... But looking at the current situation in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces, it has reached an extraordinary time."

"Then everyone please go back and prepare for battle. When the UTC is sent, the entire army will assemble for battle!"

…………

In fact, the arrival of this first group of people was enough to shock Hai Pingchuan——

Although he trusted Jiang Cheng's influence on the Fengtian Army in recent years, to be honest, he had no idea about Feng Delin.

However, Lao Feng is Lao Feng. Even if he has fallen from the top to the bottom of the valley, his influence remains.

With his name as the rallying cry and the now popular Jiang family, these officers, who were already fence-sitters, have begun to think about changing their allegiance one after another.

So over the next ten days, military officers of all ranks came to the office hall one after another.

Jiang Cheng, on the other hand, was quite willing to accept everything and met almost every person who came.

"Fei Lan, you are not determined to take him in, are you?"

The situation in Heilongjiang Province has become tense in recent days, and Hai Pingchuan has almost always been at the forefront of the two cities.

When he called today, in addition to reporting on the battle situation at the front, he was more or less worried that "picking up" too many of these soldiers would be detrimental to their development.

"I know that quality is more important than quantity—"

Jiang Cheng held the receiver and spoke, winking at Bai Junshan who was standing straight in the room, asking him to sit down first, then smiled and said, "Don't worry! I still have a plan..."

"By the way, Pingchuan, from today on, the soldiers on the front line must be ready for battle day and night! Even when sleeping, hug your guns to sleep. Before the second batch of supplies arrives in Songyuan, Shuangcheng must be ready for battle at any time."

Secretly poaching people from Wu Junsheng is one thing, but the most crucial thing now is the confrontation with Heilongjiang Province.

After more than two months of preparation, Bao Guiqing's side had already deployed all its troops. Marshal Zhang, the inspector general of the three northeastern provinces, issued strict orders again and again, ordering Bao Guiqing not to mobilize troops on a large scale without permission.

But the Bao family father and son were determined to go against Liaoning and Jilin provinces, and turned a deaf ear to Marshal Zhang's orders.

Early this morning, the order from the Fengtian General Staff Headquarters arrived in Changchun: The entire Jilin army is heading north to wipe out the rebel Bao Guiqing!
When Hai Pingchuan heard this, he understood the meaning. He agreed immediately and reported the preparations at the front line to Jiang Cheng.

"Pingchuan, you don't have to strive for victory in the first battle... You can even start a full retreat."

After listening to his report, Jiang Cheng understood that the Bao family had basically put all their assets on the line.

Hai Pingchuan was a little stunned when he heard this: "Ah? You don't want to fight well... What, should we also conserve our strength?"

Jiang Cheng did not answer him, but said calmly: "Once the Bao family attacks Shuangcheng, the front-line troops will retreat to Songyuan--"

"For the first battle, I decided to fight the guy named Bao near Songyuan!"

After saying this, Jiang Cheng told him that the tactics prepared by the division headquarters had been circulated, and asked him to prepare according to the order.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Cheng turned around and looked at Wang Junshan, who immediately smiled and said, "Feilan, I haven't seen you for a few months, and your abilities have become stronger and stronger! In the future, Master Shuai will officially issue a letter of appointment and let you take the position of the top leader of Jilin, right?"

Whether he was formally appointed or not, it didn’t matter to Jiang Cheng anymore.

Except for Baishan, Yanji, Hunchun and other places close to North Korea, as well as the Japanese-controlled territories at four stations on the North Manchuria Railway, Jiang Cheng has successfully controlled many cities.

In the future, once the Bao family is defeated, his 29th Division will be able to start suppressing bandits along the line... and even push all the way to Heilongjiang!
I had originally thought about cooperating happily with Wu Junsheng and ceding the interests in Heilongjiang to him - but I didn't expect that the old guy was only interested in taking advantage and gaining the territory. How the hell can I still indulge him?
However, he couldn't tell Bai Junshan about these thoughts in his mind. Jiang Cheng remained calm, pretending to be concerned about the country and the people, and even sighed:

"Alas! Ever since I was appointed by the Marshal, our Northeast has always been in chaos. Although I am honored to be the acting governor of Jilin, I always feel sad when I see the people suffering."

"Now the Bao family has started fighting again, and the flames of war are likely to burn every inch of land in Jilin and even Liaoning. After all, we should end the war with war now, so that we can live in peace in the future."

Bai Junshan knew that this was just a pretentious statement, but based on his understanding of the young commander:

Although the other party is not a straightforward person, he is definitely not the kind of person who would talk in roundabout ways... It seems that after what happened with the Cai family, he has truly grown up.

"I came here to tell you secretly that Master Wu probably already knows that the brothers are going to change their allegiance—"

Bai Junshan thought about it for a moment and finally said, "Feilan, you also know that Feng Delin's troops were divided into two at the beginning, and you and he almost divided the troops equally..."

"Now that the old commander has raised his arm and ordered you to take away all the former 28th Division, big and small, the Second Master will definitely be furious!"

Seeing that he was worried and extremely anxious, Jiang Cheng sneered: "The current situation is a mess;"

"No matter whether it's our commander or the capital, or even the Japanese, no one wants to mess up this situation. Who the hell cares whether he's happy or not."

In fact, Jiang Cheng didn't need to say such unpleasant things to Wang Junshan;

But judging from the current situation, except for Wang Junshan, they are still loyal; Ding Chunxi, Ye Qinglin and other former subordinates of the 28th Division, are probably still building walls except for considering Feng Laosan's face.
