The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

Jiang Cheng is completely different from Zhang Hanqing. In his eyes, women are just condiments in his vast blueprint; without them, the taste is less, but with too many, it would be overwhelming.

Even though he was caring and loving towards his two wives, he still felt from the bottom of his heart that having too many women would be a burden...

Now he is asked to marry an outsider, a young girl with whom he has no emotional foundation. Jiang Cheng is resisting from the bottom of his heart.

"I don't want it. Whoever wants it can go."

After saying this, Jiang Cheng leaned back heavily and curled his lips in annoyance, "I'm not Zhang Hanqing, I can still control my crotch."

Zhang Zuoxiang was so angry that he said, "You little brat, who are you trying to embarrass? I am not afraid to tell you that it is not up to you to decide whether to marry this wife or not."

"Do you think I'm happy? Xue'er just gave you a pair of children, and I usually have nothing to say to you, right?"

"Alright, I'll make it clear! The order was given by the commander-in-chief, and he said that you should just take her back - you can keep her in the governor's mansion, or you can keep her in another house if you don't like her. Anyway, no one is forcing you to treat her as an equal."

Jiang Cheng was irritated when he heard this, but as he looked at Zhang Zuoxiang's increasingly solemn expression, he suddenly understood what was going on.

This old fellow Duan Zhigui must have shown some intention of surrendering and pledging loyalty to the Marshal... So,
Is the old fox planning to unite with him?
Yes, the Anhui clique was about to be finished under the attack from the Zhili and Fengtian factions: on the one hand, Duan Zhigui also wanted to get out, and the Marshal must have wanted to use him to reap the "legacy" after the collapse of the Anhui clique.

If the Duan clan sided with the Marshal and gained an advantage in the Fengtian Army, then after Duan Qirui and Xu Shuzheng were completely overthrown, more and more Anhui clique generals would ally with the old fox.

It seems that the old guy also realized his own strength in the battle in Hunan, and felt that he had the power to challenge for the Central Plains.

So he would not waste Duan Zhigui's breakthrough.

"My goodness, why is it always me?"

Even if Jiang Cheng could figure this out, he still felt a little angry. "He doesn't want my elder sister to be wronged. What about Xuecheng? Is it appropriate for him to always pick on me as the scapegoat?"

Zhang Zuoxiang shook his head and smiled: "Why, just think of it as the handsome man looking at you, isn't that enough?"

Jiang Cheng smiled bitterly.

But the father-in-law sighed again and said, "Alright! Don't always feel that you are aggrieved. Think about it - those of you who graduated from the Military Academy, Han Qing, Feng Yong, or Tai Xun, etc.,

"After all the considerations, aren't you the only one who is good at selecting talents? Even if we don't mention that Duan Zhigui chose you at first sight, who else would be suitable except you, the governor of Jilin?"

What kind of talk is this? No one is going, so you ask me to take the lead. Indeed, Duan Xinyu is a beautiful girl, and it would not be a loss to marry her.
But this also means that there is a great possibility that the Marshal will do the same as Pingchuan and arrange for him to enter the country to interfere.

Because he was in the negotiations in Tianjin, Jiang Cheng had to fight two battles by himself. Now he is asked to go again?
Jilin's development had just stabilized, and a large number of talents and equipment were introduced;
In the next step, the development of industries such as steel, arms and even fuel will all depend on his leadership.

Let me be distracted and go inside the pass? No, I have no interest at all.

"Okay, okay, you've said it all, how can I refuse again? But I'll say this first... You're here today, so you can be a witness. It's okay for me to marry that girl, but don't let me get involved in that matter!"

Jiang Cheng raised his hands to cover his face, "Okay, Dad, just tell me when the wedding date is... Besides, my second brother has been studying abroad for half a day, so you have to do Xue'er's 'ideological work'!"

Zhang Zuoxiang didn't want to take the bait and immediately said, "You can coax your own woman!" "Also, I have mentioned this to Ziwen and Huier - if you still find it difficult, ask them to agree to it together."

Damn it, you and that old fox teamed up to set this up for me, and now you ask me to help me say something in front of your daughter and you run away?
Seeing Zhang Zuoxiang suddenly stand up and turn around to leave, Jiang Cheng knew that he couldn't stop him.

Scratching his scalp with a bitter face, Jiang Cheng yelled "Ye Hai" twice, but when he saw Xu Fushan quickly running in, his mood suddenly darkened.

The funeral of this loyal guard has been completed, but Jiang Cheng still feels uncomfortable in his heart.

Unconsciously recalling the words "monk" yelled by Brother Yunlong, Jiang Cheng sighed dejectedly: I was still moved when I first saw that scene, and I became a character in the play when I saw it again.

"Master, call me little one...but what's the matter?"

Xu Fusan probably understood what Jiang Cheng was thinking, so he came up to him and asked carefully.

He wanted to say it was nothing, but he suddenly had an idea and stood up and said, "Come with me to the market... The weather is getting colder, so I'll buy some for the ladies in the mansion."

Cao Shiying was about to give birth, and people came to her family, including her aunt and her biological mother Liu.

The matter of marriage with the Duan family will definitely involve the two ladies in the family, so let’s buy some gifts first!

He went straight to Tiansheng Street, the largest commercial street in the capital. After driving Meng Enyuan away, Jiang Cheng joined forces with the heads of several chambers of commerce to widen and renovate the former commercial street.
All businesses were integrated and redistributed. In addition to continuing the original prosperity, all Japanese businesses were moved to the "Japanese area".

After nearly two years of maintaining order and operating, Tiansheng Street became the largest and most prosperous commercial street in Northeast China. Not only did merchants from all over the country come to do business, but also foreign companies from Japan, France, the United States, and Russia conducted trade here... Jilin Prefecture's commercial income doubled.

After buying a few pieces of cloth, the owner of the cloth shop repeatedly said that he would not charge him. However, Jiang Cheng told him to put it on account of the government. Then he went out and turned right to the jewelry store. As soon as he entered, he ran into Yang Hongyi.

"Hey, Fourth Uncle, why are you in the provincial capital?"

With a smile on his face, Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a little puzzled:
Yang Hongyi was transferred to Yanji as a garrison officer. Although the number of Japanese in Yanji city was decreasing, the number of Koreans was increasing, and there were still a lot of daily management matters.

How come he has time?

Besides, why did he come to the provincial capital without saying hello to me?
"Ah, I..."

Yang Hongyi suddenly felt a little embarrassed. Just as he was racking his brains to think of something to say, he heard some chirping from the other side of the counter.

It sounded like he was calling Yang Hongyi... Jiang Cheng frowned and turned his gaze over:

She was a young woman in her early twenties, with a very seductive face and red lips.

"This is?"

He suddenly understood: when Bao Guiqing detained his family in Heilongjiang Province, Yang Hongyi's first wife was accidentally killed.

So, he remarried? (End of this chapter)
