The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 456: Meeting with the Japs
Yu Fengzhi folded her hands in front of her and let out a sigh of admiration: "Hey, Feilan, you are really amazing!"

"Look at where you go. You can develop agriculture, industry, and all kinds of construction... You can even research such a powerful medicine. You can lead troops and understand foreign trade. There is nothing you can't do—"

"If we had more talents like you in Northeast China, we wouldn't have to worry about the Japanese all the time."

Being praised by a beauty of her status, Jiang Cheng felt a little embarrassed: "Hey, sister, it's not nice for you to praise me in front of Xuecheng..."

As he spoke, he winked at the general manager of the power plant and asked him to continue leading everyone on the tour. He then said, "In fact, there are more young talents in Northeast China than just me, Jiang Feilan."

"Big sister, you might as well take a look. The people around you are all talented, knowledgeable, visionary young people who can lead troops."

Yu Fengzhi followed his direction, looked around at his staff, chuckled and continued to follow him, her high heels tapping on the cement floor, making crisp sounds: "Only you are willing to use young generals... Even my father-in-law said he was willing to use them, but he was still on guard."

"Look at Guo Xipeng and Jiang Dengxuan. Aren't they the same people who worked with Staff Officer Yang in the General Staff Headquarters?"

Jiang Cheng blinked.

This elder sister is really interesting today. There are hidden meanings in her words, but she doesn't make every word clear.

"Our commander has actually used quite a few young men. General Yang has turned back, but Xu Shuzheng has cheated our commander a lot... so he will be more or less on guard."

Yu Fengzhi could tell that he was trying to find an excuse for her father-in-law, and sighed again, "But everything should be said in excess. I always hear Hanqing talking about Maochen. During the bandit suppression campaign in Jiamusi, even several leaders under Lu Yonggui who were recruited were given official positions, but Maochen..."

Jiang Cheng was stunned: Oh my god, it turns out that these words are meant to lead me to gain credit for Guo Maochen?
That's right, that guy got Zhang Hanqing out of the Military Academy, saying that he was not interested in fame at all, which was a lie.

But he was arrogant because of his talent, and most of the Fengtian Army generals, including the Marshal, agreed on this point.

"I understand what you mean, sister..."

Under the leadership of the general manager, Jiang Cheng and his party continued their tour along the periphery of the power plant's steel frame, where there was a busy scene all around.

Jiang Cheng turned around and looked at her again, then continued to look at the factory, as if he was talking to the metal equipment, "But there are some things that I really can't say... But big sister, you should think about it, since our master came to rule the Northeast, has he ever been reluctant to reward people?"

"But speaking of our Jiang family, the old man has given us everything that should be given, and has favored us to the utmost - in this situation now, he must have made arrangements."

The Marshal certainly intended to hang the old guy up, at least to curb his arrogant temper that looked down on everyone.

Moreover, the relationship between Zhang Hanqing and Guo Maochen is so close that even if they wore the same pants they would still be too tight... In the future, if he is given an official position by the "Crown Prince", wouldn't that be the best of both worlds?
Yu Fengzhi couldn't understand...but after being taken away by Zhang Hanqing and staying in the guard brigade for a few days, she could clearly see that Old Guo was quite dissatisfied with this matter. It was really boring to make a fuss over a little reward.

"Feilan, I..."

She had just started to choose her words when Zhang Xuecheng's adjutant Wu Dongyun trotted over and said a few words to her superior.

"Feilan, the Japanese are here again - Okawa and Machino are here with a strange Japanese soldier."

Zhang Xuecheng's words made Jiang Cheng smile meaningfully: "It's really interesting. Did the devils agree to come here together?"

I received a call yesterday, it was from Matsushita Hideki... He and Suzuki Hiroshi have completed the rotation of defense, and they have arranged a date to come to Jilin Prefecture to discuss the division of Siping's sphere of influence with him.

Not to mention Suzuki Hiroshi, the lackey, who also wants to come here - this is now the third group of Japanese devils. "They come here without even saying hello in advance."

Gao Wensheng had nothing good to say to the Japs, "Let's just do our own thing and leave them alone for a while."

Jiang Cheng waved his hand: "It's useless to fight this anger, it will only give you a bad reputation."

After saying that, he waved to Han Ming and asked him to go to the largest Elizabeth Hotel in the city to make arrangements, book the entire top floor, and asked Sun Zhengnan to bring Jiang Dengxuan to meet him first.

"Brother-in-law, I don't trust anyone with the power plant."

Jiang Cheng led the rest of the group out of the power plant, and pulled Yan Ziwen over, "I've just checked, these Germans are reliable, they can do the job without any problems;"

"But I'm not sure if I can leave it entirely to those foreign engineers. Before the power plant is fully completed, I'll leave it to you."

Yan Ziwen shook his hand firmly and said, "No need for your instructions. Xiaohui and my father have explained everything to me... This purely Western-style power plant is a big deal. It uses advanced units and will generate astonishing amounts of electricity in the future. It will have a far-reaching impact on the comprehensive industrialization of Jilin."

"I have arranged for Snow Fox through Ting Shu, and together with the brothers outside and I, we will personally monitor and ensure that the power plant is completed and operational on schedule!"

Hearing him speak so well, Jiang Cheng backhandedly punched him in the chest: "Damn, this is a scholar who studied abroad, and he talks just the way I like to hear him!"

While getting in the car, he solemnly reminded, "Brother-in-law, I won't say any more unnecessary words. Everything - please!"

Yan Ziwen lowered his eyelids slightly and said seriously: "Don't worry Feilan, just do your thing!"

After that, the car started slowly. Jiang Cheng kept looking back at his brother-in-law, waving and watching the departing convoy. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief: "Feilan is so lucky to have so many comrades - ahem, brothers who can be trusted."

Yu Fengzhi beside him looked at him and said, "Yes, how come you always have so many brothers around you who can be trusted?"

Unexpectedly, Xu Fushan, who was driving, immediately interrupted and said, "Our Master Jiang is very generous! He gave me money and land, and even bought me a house in Jilin Prefecture - all that's missing is a wife to give birth to children. With such a boss, who wouldn't work hard for him!"

Jiang Cheng was amused by what he heard, but pretended to be unhappy: "Go away! You have no right to interrupt me here."

Xu Fushan knew what he meant, made a face and said nothing.

Seeing what Yu Fengzhi was thinking, Jiang Cheng changed the subject: "The Japanese must be here now because of a territorial dispute around Jilin Prefecture."

Gao Wensheng, who was sitting in the vice-chair, continued, "The only territory that can be seized is the military's. If Machino and his people are really doing this... it's really a bit strange."

Jiang Cheng said nothing.

In fact, he thought similarly to Gao Wensheng: in order to avoid making more enemies, Jiang Cheng ordered that the territories to be retaken were basically all on the Fukushima side.

"Let's go and see what happens next."
