The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Chapter 469 Attack on Yanji
Since Jiang Cheng settled down in Jilin, his temper has become more restrained; he no longer speaks as bluntly and vulgarly as before, like a low-level soldier.

But it was precisely these seemingly elegant, gentle and caring words that sounded like sarcasm to Guo Maochen.

"Jiang Feilan, what do you mean by this?"

Guo Maochen's face suddenly turned dark, and his tone became less pleasant.

Even though Jiang Cheng is in a high position now, in the eyes of this former instructor, he and he are still the same teacher and student as they were back then.

Jiang Cheng half raised his chin and said, "Ask me? Fine... Then I'll be frank: I have no right to interfere with your conflict with Han Qing. You brought your troops and trespassed into Jilin. Do you have any transfer orders?"

When Guo Maochen heard that he actually questioned him, his eyes widened.

But before he could say anything, Zhang Hanqing leaned over and said, "There is a transfer order. Dongyun and Xiaowu neglected this matter... Feilan, we are all brothers. Don't let this little detail hurt our feelings."

When he said this, everyone could see that Zhang Hanqing was biased towards Guo Guizi. As the "landlord", Yang Hongyi quickly said, "The officers are talking in the city gate tower, which makes me, a garrison officer, look incompetent!"

"Please, everyone, please go to the barracks and sit down and rest..."

The main force of the Jilin Army was stationed outside the city, and only the officers went into the city to rest. Jiang Cheng saw that there were casualties among the soldiers and civilians inside and outside the breached city gates, and he was in no mood to compete with this guy named Guo.

"Let's go! Go back to the house and give me a thorough report. How could such a good defensive battle turn out to be such a mess?"

When Jiang Cheng said this, he was already furious... Liu Zhenhai brought news from Dunhua City, saying that he was taking empty salaries, selling military supplies, grabbing land and bullying the people;
What was even more outrageous was that the former garrison officer Qi Jun was apparently flirting with the Japanese, causing the entire Dunhua city to be infiltrated like a sieve.

"Where's that bastard Qi Jun? Have you caught him?"

As soon as he sat down in the office of the military camp, Jiang Cheng pulled out Browning and slammed it on the table, "Fourth Uncle, as your nephew, I don't want to embarrass you in front of everyone."

"But you have been in Dunhua for ten days and have almost no control over the situation of the garrison here—"

"Indeed, the telegram was intercepted by the Japanese and not sent to the General Staff. But since you didn't receive any reply from the headquarters for ten days, you didn't have any suspicions... As for the local spy, he was caught when he was destroying the evidence and about to escape!"

Jiang Cheng raised his eyelids and looked coldly at Guo and Zhang who walked in with their hands clasped behind their backs. He continued, "Seeing that the war is imminent, Fei Lan will not change his generals, nor will he do anything to you, Fourth Uncle!"

"But I have to say this first. If anything happens in Dunhua City again, we will be punished for all crimes!"

Even though he and his father had a brotherly relationship, they were now superiors and subordinates;
After being scolded, Yang Hongyi just kept silent and quickly signaled to Jiang Cheng to step aside.

Such a big mistake has happened in Dunhua, and Zhang Hanqing and Guo Maochen are there...if he just dumps the truth, the one who will be most embarrassed will be his master Jiang.

Jiang Cheng understood what he meant, but he had to find out the specific situation;
But just as he turned his gaze to Zhang Hanqing, Guo Maochen said loudly: "Don't look at me! We really shouldn't quarrel with each other when the war is imminent--"

"The Japanese military's order was issued by Tanaka Yoshihiko... They plan to support Zhang Jinghui as the governor of Jilin. Their purpose is to make the entire Jilin and even the Heilongjiang Province their command and logistics center when they go north to Siberia."

Zhang Hanqing turned his shocked face away... Almost at the same time, Zhang Tingshu, Jiang Dengxuan and Guo Xipeng also looked back in shock.

On the other hand, the Jilin governor, who was sitting at the highest position, with his legs crossed, was leaning sideways and glancing at Guo Maochen in an unserious manner.

"What do you mean?"

This obviously contemptuous attitude immediately made the arrogant former instructor unhappy.

But just as he glared, Jiang Cheng laughed: "Since Instructor Guo has said so much, I, Jiang Feilan, might as well be a coward if I continue to hesitate."

"Chao Liu, tell Mao Chen everything we discussed on the way!"…………

As soon as the news from Dunhua arrived, Jiang Cheng, who was leading his troops on a forced march, became angry.

We knew in advance that something big had happened in Dunhua, but we didn't expect that the Japanese would come in large numbers again, trying to lure the enemy deep into our territory in this way.

Whether the front troops exchanged fire or not, they had already given the Japanese an excuse to "engage in battle" -

"Now, whether the film in Yanji was written and directed by the Japanese is no longer important."

Jiang Cheng said coldly to the topographic map spread out on the table, "Chao Liu led the White Russian Regiment to defeat the group of devils attacking Dunhua, which has already caused casualties to them. The next move for them is to cry thief."

In later generations, in the city of Wanping, they used the excuse of lost soldiers to bombard the city and storm the Lugou Bridge... This was the basic operation of the Japanese.

"Creating a diplomatic incident, like they did with Feng Delin before, to force you to step down?"

Guo Maochen's face froze.

Although he was dissatisfied with many of the brat's practices, overall, resisting foreign enemies, developing Jilin, and even the recent comprehensive replacement of the new army were in line with the righteousness he had always followed.

Just looking at the situation of exploitation of the people in Jinzhou and even the surrounding areas, if Zhang Jinghui had become the governor of Jilin, the consequences can be imagined.

No matter how arrogant and unruly Jiang Feilan was, he was still an excellent general and a senior official.

"We have almost summarized the previous situation. Now how do we cooperate? How should we fight this battle?"

Guo Maochen said nothing.

"The Japanese have been repelled. Should we hold our ground and seize the initiative now?"

Zhang Hanqing stated, "No matter what, the General Staff Headquarters must be informed, and the Marshal's Office must also be notified."

UMC?

Isn't this just continuing the policy of appeasement?

After all, it was for his own sake, so Jiang Cheng didn't want to refute his face: "Han Qing is right, the report must be submitted - the content of the UMC, please trouble you, Brother Zhang, to do it."

After saying this, he did not continue to look at the other person's slightly raised lips, but picked up the bamboo pole and knocked on the map, "The damn bastard is planning to target my Jilin, to target my Jiang Feilan——"

"Aren't you planning to use the attack on Yanji as an excuse? I've already taken my reputation on myself, why don't I just go all out?"

Even Guo Maochen was surprised: "You want to attack Yanji?"

Without responding to him, Jiang Cheng had already started assigning tasks.

He didn't expect that the Japanese would come and call for help, but he brought heavy weapons and tanks just to attack Yanji.

He originally wanted to thank Guo Maochen for helping him break the deadlock, and he even wanted to give him a medal for "recovering lost territory."

Now that the truth is out, Jiang Cheng is more determined to attack Yanji.
