The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Now the Marshal has established himself outside the Great Wall, and all the administrative regions and provinces, including Rehe, are under his control.

So in this situation, he would definitely try his best to pave the way for his son.

Haha, after all, he is the undisputed crown prince of Northeast China.

Gazing out of the car window at the rapidly receding fertile plains, Jiang Cheng fell into a brief contemplation at the peaceful scene.

"Feilan, why are you hiding here?"

Just as he was thinking about how to go to Jinzhou, Yang Yuting's voice came from the entrance of his exclusive carriage.

There was a hint of amusement and strangeness in his words, which made Jiang Cheng concentrate immediately and turn his gaze back: "Lin Ge!"

He stood up, walked towards him and extended his hand to shake his. "It's been a long time since we last met. The Chief of the General Staff is still in high spirits, full of youthful vigor and vitality!"

Knowing that he was more or less flattering, Yang Yuting just smiled evilly and said, "Speaking of youthful spirit, besides you, the governor of Jilin, Jiang Feilan, is there anyone else like you outside the whole border?"

Jiang Cheng pretended to be flattered and took his hand and sat down together: "I say, Lin Ge, please don't say this again in the future. What does it mean for everyone to hear this?"

"Where are you going to put young heroes like Han Qing and Feng Yong?"

Yang Yuting joked again, but his eyes remained stern and kept looking at other people in the car from time to time.

He knew that he wanted to talk to him alone, but Jiang Cheng was surrounded by his confidants, and he didn't even have the energy to send Zhang Tinglan away.

They continued chatting about daily matters, and Zhang Tinglan, who was always very smart, understood what he meant - with these people around, Yang Yuting would definitely not say anything important.

He immediately found an excuse and left with the people in the carriage... But before leaving, he repeatedly instructed Ye Hai, Han Ming and others to keep watch carefully.

"They are all trusted aides, why do you have to make it so obvious?"

Jiang Cheng took out a cigarette from his pocket and said, "I'm safe here. Everyone is very strict and they all support my brother."

Yang Yuting didn't take his imported cigarettes, but looked at him with a smile: "Feilan, are you a little more confident now?"

"Think about the Cai family back then - they didn't warn you, did they?"

Jiang Cheng's face darkened: "You suddenly mentioned the Cai family, are you trying to tell me...are there any traitors in Jilin?"

Yang Yuting seemed very satisfied with his reaction, and laughed twice with a hint of sarcasm: "I didn't say that--"

"I just feel that Feilan is already a military commander, so he still needs to improve his ability to control his subordinates. Besides..."

He spoke word by word, and his extremely shrewd inverted triangle eyes suddenly stared at him, "You have to think about it carefully. Is the matter in Jilin... really that simple?"

"When we meet Duan Zhigui, why did you choose Jinzhou? And not your father's territory, Xinmin or Rehe?"

In fact, the other party's series of questions were exactly what Jiang Cheng was thinking just now.

This kid didn't say what he wanted to say, but kept it a secret instead - it seemed like he was short of money again.

Jiang Cheng lifted up the other leg, then quietly lowered his head to light a cigarette. After a long while, he slowly said, "Chief of Staff, let's be frank, shall we? Guo Maochen is in the car too. We should meet as short as possible during this time, shall we?" The entire Fengtian Army knew that Yang and Guo had always been at odds with each other... If he heard that the two had met privately on the way to Jinzhou and reported it to Zhang Hanqing, it would be a very difficult situation.

Yang Yuting lowered his eyelids, but still took the cigarette from Jiang Cheng's hand, but did not smoke it immediately. Instead, he said with a stalemate look in his eyes: "Although our commander didn't say anything about the war in Hunchun and other places,"

"But I am happy that you have recovered the lost territory... Besides, with my shrewdness, I naturally understand how important the Tumen River's estuary is."

"But just because he's happy doesn't mean the entire Fengtian Army is happy - think about it carefully, your Jiang family was just the commander of the cavalry battalion under the 28th Division back then; now father and son are both military governors in two places at the same time."

Among the older generation, apart from Marshal Zhang Zuoxiang and Wu Junsheng, there is Jiang Lanxuan... and among the younger generation, Jiang Cheng is undoubtedly the leader!

It is impossible for the father and son to remain low-key when they are so successful.

"Zhang Jinghui again?"

Jiang Cheng took a long puff of the cigarette, as if he was using it to vent his anger. "Damn it, they betrayed us last time and teamed up with the Japanese. Not only did they look for trouble with us, but my father-in-law also suffered as a result!"

Yang Yuting held him down and said, "The soundproofing in this carriage is not as good as your Governor's Mansion. You'd better be careful that walls have ears."

"The reason why we arranged the meeting in Jinzhou this time was to intimidate Zhang Jinghui. When the telegram about the resignation from the capital came, the old man was very happy and rushed from Jinzhou to Fengtian overnight - dragging Master Wu and Master Sun to meet our boss."

Before this happened, Jiang Cheng heard about it privately:
In fact, apart from Zhang Jinghui who was really concerned, Wu Junsheng remained completely neutral. Sun Liechen was even more extreme. He slammed the table at Zhang Jinghui during the meeting because of this matter:

What do you mean, Fifth Brother, you are so confused? This is Feng Guozhang's evil plot to alienate our Fengtian Army. How could you fall for this just for a little benefit?

"So, our commander arranged the meeting place in Jinzhou - just so that I can personally shock Duan Zhigui and show it to Zhang Jinghui?"

Jiang Cheng held the cigarette against his lower lip: If this is the arrangement, the Marshal must be trying to force him to leave again, no, to let him retreat on his own. "Yes, this way, we won't offend either of the Zhi and Anhui families."

Yang Yuting looked back at him with appreciation: "Smart! Now that the situation outside the Great Wall has been initially settled, the Marshal certainly does not want to cause any trouble, and he certainly does not want others to interfere in the Northeast——"

"So it's best for us to find a way to get rid of this old guy."

An old fox is an old fox. Not only are his moves insidious, but even if things turn out well, it cannot be blamed on him... He could just smile foolishly and pretend that they were trying to please Governor Duan with nice words and it was just that he didn't want to take the office!

Jiang Cheng held a cigarette in his mouth and smiled wickedly, but he quickly turned his indifferent gaze to Yang Yuting: "Lin Ge, you came to me today not just for these words, right?"

If they were just discussing these preliminary conditions, would they really have to kick everyone out? Zhang Tinglan didn't mind listening to this.

"Feilan, I'm watching coldly. Master Shuai is not completely at ease with the Jiang family... After all, even Kikuchi Takeo didn't do anything good in front of him."

Yang Yuting suddenly lowered his voice a bit, "Do you know that this time, Master Shuai deliberately let Zhang Jinghui into Fengtian?"

"I think the reason why he dared to chase after your Jiang family has a lot to do with Mr. Shuai's connivance, right?"

Jiang Cheng sneered: "Chief of the General Staff, I don't understand what you said at all, huh?"

"Why don't you break it into pieces and analyze it carefully for me?" (End of this chapter)
