The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

They were discussing the changes within the country, but who could have imagined that such a big thing would happen in the waters of their own backyard!
Jiang Cheng turned around and stared at Zhao Xishun who came to report the news. His face turned green:

Yingkou and Andong both go through the Bohai Sea - and Jilin's two major ports, Tumenjiang and Vladivostok, both have to cross the Japanese waters!

The Combined Fleet blockaded Japanese waters, and his merchant ships could neither enter nor leave.

"What is this for?"

Jiang Cheng didn't say anything, but Wu Junsheng couldn't sit still anymore. He propped himself up from the high-back chair and kept asking Zhao Xishun for details.

He had a nickname of "Big Lip". Whenever he got anxious or stressed, he would bite his tongue and spit saliva when he spoke - but even so, Jiang Cheng could almost understand what he said.

These little devils blocked the navigable sea area under the pretext of routine maritime training and exercises.

Jiang Cheng knew very well that although the sea looked like a sea of ​​water on the surface, it was actually undercurrents, and there were reefs and other things under the water. The routes were fixed...

The water route cannot be avoided, especially once there are warships blocking the way, no merchant ships can get through.

"Damn it, these merchant ships also carry a batch of gasoline that I ordered from Heilongjiang Province!"

Wu Junsheng was so anxious that his eyes turned red while cursing at the Japanese. Jiang Cheng glanced at the Marshal, but the old fox looked like he was watching a fire from the other side of the river, as if he didn't care at all about the seizure of supplies in Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces, and even seemed to be just there to watch the fun.

Jiang Cheng was a little anxious.

In the era when the Eurasian Railway did not yet exist, materials coming from Europe and the United States, as well as exported goods, all relied on the two major ports of Vladivostok and Tumen River.

Once this side is blocked, the goods from Heilongjiang and Jilin provinces will not be sold, and imported goods, including arms, will be blocked.

Thinking of this, Jiang Cheng said in the calmest words: "Master, the Japanese blockaded the ocean, I'm afraid they want to attack our Northeast——"

"I want to meet with the Japanese consul as soon as possible to negotiate first. In addition, I'm afraid I have to return to Jilin Prefecture as soon as possible. We also have to make full preparations for the response!"

But Wu Junsheng said it more directly: "If these damned little Japanese start to make a move, we are not afraid of them... We will fight them to death!"

The Marshal clearly had a long way to go, but before he could open his mouth, the old fellow actually stood up and said goodbye, and he really showed signs of ready to fight, threatening to go and settle accounts with the Japanese devils.

"Hey, second brother! If you have something to say, we can discuss it!"

The Marshal smacked his lips and wanted to chase after him, but Wu Junsheng, who was so anxious, didn't listen at all and disappeared with a huff.

Now it was Jiang Cheng who was watching the fun. He rolled his eyes a few times and suddenly felt that the old man's long face after returning from the Japanese consulate today was probably related to what happened.

He was about to turn his gaze to Zhao Xishun, but the latter lowered his brows, turned his face away and ran away.

Damn it, are you here to put on a show in front of me? You must have known about the Japanese military exercise... You didn't tell me even though you knew about it. You are really disloyal!

"Master Shuai, I want to meet your Japanese consultant."

…………

After Machino Takema died, Suzuki Mitsuhiro took over as the Japanese advisor in Changchun. The Marshal was still accompanied by Kikuchi Takeo, who had a good relationship with Kentaro Ochiai, a senior official of the consulate.
Under his coordination, Jiang Cheng met with several Japanese leaders smoothly... Of course, he did not waste time and told them the purpose of his trip: asking the Combined Fleet to give up the route, restore merchant shipping, etc.

Unexpectedly, Kentaro Ochiai actually used Tai Chi, first stating that he had no say in the military and navy;
In addition, he repeatedly stated that the combined fleet was only conducting routine training and was not intended to block the route. He also asked Commander Jiang not to be anxious and to wait patiently for the training and exercises to be completed, and the route would naturally be restored.

Jiang Cheng sneered.

Wait?
It's okay for two or three days, but what if you really carry out some "routine exercises" and block my road every now and then, or stop my merchant ships?
It's not unheard of to pluck feathers from a passing goose... But before he opened his mouth to express his opinion, an official next to Kentaro Ochiai said in a sarcastic tone that Commander Jiang must have some reasons why his ship was stopped.

Don’t you have your own reasons?

I was really too lenient with you little Japanese devils.

From now on I will beat you to death. This is a lesson for you so that you will remember it!

Jiang Chengzhen was getting angrier and angrier the more he thought about it, but he also understood that nothing would be achieved by coming to negotiate this time, and the most he could do was to test the Japanese' intentions.

Now we can see everything: the Japs are doing this because we have been "ruining their plans" repeatedly. Since these bastards can't cause trouble for us on land, they just start to think of evil ideas at sea.

But he soon noticed that Takeo Kikuchi, who had been silent, had a strange look in his eyes, so he immediately smiled and turned around, saying that he had something else to do and would not disturb him for the time being.

"Commander Jiang, let me say something to you——"

As soon as he got into the car from the consulate, Kikuchi Takeo immediately lowered his voice and said, "The reason why the route is blocked is probably closely related to your daily behavior—"

"And this time on the expedition to Mongolia, you are... ahem, I want to ask, is it Minamoto no Yoshimasa?"

Jiang Cheng immediately turned his gaze to Kikuchi Takeo, then lowered his brows and smiled: "So what? He was assassinated among the White Army. Is it my Ji Army's fault?"

In fact, Yuan Yi was captured alive by the Russians and handed over to Xu Shuzheng.

That night Jiang Cheng ordered that these bastards be buried alive on the grassland and used as fertilizer... Haha, is he planning to avenge that guy?

Or are you still angry that I wiped out all the Japs in the Caucasus?
"Commander Jiang, if you say so, Kikuchi will have nothing to say. In my opinion, Jilin and our Great Japan are not completely irreconcilable. If you are willing to give the railway to us,

Before the guy could finish, Jiang Cheng interrupted him with a sneer, "There are so many railways in Jilin, which section are you interested in?"

"Do you still want the route from Manzhouli to Chita, or from Xinmin Zhengjiatun to Kulun?"

At this point, Jiang Cheng leaned forward slightly, revealing a wicked smile: "But no matter which part it is, you use such a despicable method to negotiate with me, Jiang Cheng, do you think I will give in?"

"Do you still think that my Master Wu will give in?"

When Jiang Cheng said this, he had actually taken out Browning. When Browning met his slightly sinister gaze, he shuddered: "You, are you planning to... shoot me in Fengtian City?"

Because of his jealous nervous mood, Jiang Cheng laughed loudly: "How dare I? But, this Browning that has been with me for many years is older than my family's inheritance."

"Who knows if it will go off accidentally!" (End of this chapter)
