The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 417 You Can't Even Tell the Difference Between the Big and Small Kings
As early as half a month ago, the Marshal dispatched a convoy to march to Siping first - you have to know that these days marching and fighting cannot be done relying solely on people.

The army needs baggage for eating, drinking, defecating, urinating and sleeping, and the guns and ammunition in their hands have to be transported by special vehicles... The saying "food and fodder must be sent before troops move forward" refers to the importance of baggage.

But after he said this, Guo Songling seemed a little dissatisfied. He believed that Jiang Cheng's failure to manage his subordinates properly had caused the entire march to be delayed, and that the opportunity for combat might be delayed.

You have a shitty opportunity to fight. Everyone knows that the bandits in Jiamusi, Zhao Qingshan, have been entrenched in Jiamusi for more than ten years.

If they really have such a strong intention to wipe out the enemy, would they have waited until now?
This is just a task assigned by the Marshal to let his son go out to gild his reputation and gain military merits.

Jiang Cheng looked at the other person silently and took out a cigarette from his pocket.

Until now, he really looked down on Zhang Hanqing... He did know that in history, Zhang Hanqing and Guo Songling had a good personal relationship;
Especially in the first Zhi-Feng War in 1920, the troops led by them fought brilliantly, and Xiao Zhang trusted him even more.

But you rely so much on your subordinates, letting them bite and offend people like a mad dog...

Jiang Cheng leaned slightly to light a cigarette, and looked back as if he was watching a fun event: no matter how much of a dandy he was, he was born into a famous family; especially the handsome man's teachings on "the ways of the world", which made him understand that he could not offend him at this moment.

But Guo Songling, who was arrogant because of his talent, had always been too successful because of his benefactor Xiao Zhang.

Every boss he met along the way valued his talent, otherwise he would have been rich if he had died hundreds of times after all the things he had experienced in the Military Academy.

Zhang Hanqing, the biggest difference between you and me is that I value talent and knowledge, but I value loyalty even more.

The two exchanged glances and soon calmed down. However, Guo Songling did not give face to anyone present. He pushed his chair, stood up, and said goodbye, making the excuse that he had to go back to Siping first.

"Mao Chen, Mao Chen!"

Zhang Hanqing stood up and called him, but all he heard in response was his back and the sound of a door closing.

This guy seems to be turning his back on everyone, but in fact, the one who suffers the most is Xiao Zhang.

"You are really a fool. You spoiled your deputy so much that he can't even tell the difference between the big and small kings."

Jiang Cheng also stood up, holding a cigarette in his mouth and speaking sarcastically, "In the future, when your father handed over the Northeast to you, was his mother's surname Zhang or Guo?"

Zhang Hanqing's face darkened: "Don't say such harsh words..."

But his adjutant Wu Dongyun beside him looked as if he was used to it. It seemed that this kind of thing of giving the superior the cold shoulder happened absolutely frequently.

"This matter cannot be entirely blamed on Mao Chen... Since leaving Fengtian, a lot of things have happened."

Zhang Hanqing asked two guards to chase Guo Songling, while he smiled awkwardly at the acquaintances in the big office, "You said that Northeast China belongs to my father, but it is also frustrating. The guard brigade took a special train all the way north, but had to repeatedly look at the hot face of the Japanese."

Look at their faces?
Jiang Cheng raised his eyebrows slightly, and Zhang Tingshu scratched his head: "Why are you looking at the Japs' faces? Could it be that they are the ones driving the train?"

Hai Pingchuan took over the conversation and said, "It's the line that's giving way—"

"The Japanese are fighting in Qingdao, and the port is still in the hands of the Germans. Their troop deployment and supplies all depend on the transportation of the Manchurian Railway."

Zhang Hanqing smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying, "That's right. The supplies for the Guard Brigade to Jiamusi were delivered and loaded onto trains in Fengtian, and then trains were sent to the front line in Jilin... This route was set by the General Staff Headquarters." "But we never took into account the variables. The Japanese used Qingdao to fight and made things difficult for us. The marching speed was already delayed. After we passed Tieling, the train conductor was notified that the Japanese in Siping would not allow us to enter the station, and forced the train to avoid the route nearby and let the Manchurian railway be used by them."

Jiang Cheng looked back at him and laughed: "I can see that Maochen is angry about this matter - but it's not my fault."

"It was obviously Xiao Benzi who was obstructing the matter. I, Jilin, provided money and food, and the convoy for transporting the baggage was also arranged by me and the Marshal... Hanqing, please don't think my words are harsh."

"You are a little frustrated as the prince of Northeast China. Isn't it time to teach that old man a lesson?"

Zhang Hanqing was startled, then shook his head and sighed, "Forget it, it's all for the greater good. But now it's good, the troops can continue to move north, and we won't bother them anymore!"

Hai Pingchuan exchanged glances with Jiang Cheng, and quickly stood up and pulled him with Zhang Xuecheng: "Hey, what are you talking about? You're leaving right after you got here?"

"Your troops can't reach Changchun without you? I checked in advance, it takes at least two days to march. In addition, Maochen is going back now, so you have to stay in Jilin Prefecture for two or three days?"

Zhang Xuecheng also chimed in, "That's right, brother. We haven't seen each other for so long. You're leaving just like that. That's really disrespectful of me!"

She had to rely on him to find out the current situation in Fengtian. Besides, Yu Fengzhi had been in Jilin for so long that she couldn't even see her husband when he came.

He was bored with all the support, so Jiang Cheng arranged some work for him and personally called Suzuki Hiroshi in Changchun to ask him to make careful arrangements for the Manchurian Railway. Then he returned to the Governor's Mansion with his old friend's arm in arm.

This old man with flowers in his hairpin was much richer than Zhang Yuting in the past. The western-style mansion built by the governor in Jilin Prefecture was even more magnificent than the Grand Brothel.

However, some of the furnishings are still a little old-fashioned, and Hai Huixin has been arranging for replacements since they moved in.

The women of the family now came downstairs to greet him, and the grand hall was suddenly filled with laughter.

Seeing that Hai Huixin was also pregnant, Zhang Hanqing turned around and punched Jiang Cheng happily: "You are really amazing. You just had a pair of children, and now you want to add another one?"

"My goodness, you're not planning to give birth to a group yourself, are you?"

These words immediately made Miss Hai, who was always graceful and elegant, blush: "Brother Hanqing, you are really...

Jiang Cheng was infuriated by what he said, and punched him back: "You're still talking about me, let me ask you, why has my sister-in-law come to my capital for so long?"

"Aren't you planning to have more children first?"

As soon as he said this, Zhang Hanqing's smile froze: "Jiang Feilan, you are married to a concubine, so it's meaningless to talk about me, right?"

"Come on, where is my elder sister? Where did you hide her?"

Jiang Chengcai didn't respond to him, but shouted loudly that Han Qing must not be let go today, and asked the sisters to welcome him immediately.

At this time, Yu Fengzhi was still in a bank in Jilin Prefecture, busy exchanging foreign currency and doing business with Americans, and she didn't know that her husband had arrived.
