The Anti-Japanese War Begins with the Northeast Army

"You little bastards, we Fengtian Army take care of your food and drink... but you followed Guo Guizi and rebelled, giving up your good life."

"Since you're here to die, we'll give you a ride!"

Sun Jiunian roared angrily while slaughtering frantically in the chaos. Wherever his steel knife passed, blood and flesh flew everywhere...

However, just as he was fighting fiercely, he suddenly heard a strange noise in the chaos of the charge.

Whoosh, whoosh!

Oh no, this noise is——

In fact, not only Sun Jiunian was stunned, even Jiang Cheng, who was standing on the top of the city wall and giving orders, was also confused.

He thought of countless possibilities of Guo Songling's counterattack, but he never thought that this old guy would not even care about the lives of his brothers!

"Crazy, he's absolutely crazy!"

Seeing the waves of artillery fire drawing arcs in the air, in the blink of an eye, the already "cleaned" exchange of fire points were bombarded again. Even Zhang Hanqing, who had been watching the battle and had not said a word, became furious.
"He actually wants to kill all his brothers in order to fight back!?"

Hearing the young marshal's somewhat collapsed tone, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but clench his fists.

He thought of countless possibilities of the opponent's counterattack, but he never thought that the opponent would use this method of mutual destruction!

"Feilan, look, Guo's army is retreating!"

Yang Yuting was the first to notice this situation. "He knows he can't take Jinzhou, so he retreated temporarily—"

Jiang Cheng quickly picked up the telescope and observed: Sure enough, although the artillery bombardment was still continuing, it was clear that the main force of Guo’s army was retreating rapidly and orderly.

"It seems that he really did as Chief of Staff Yang said, and ran away with his men..."

It turned out to be a two-in-one plan. Anyway, they were covered by artillery fire and attacked by cavalry. There was basically no way to bring back many of these lying tanks and chaotic infantry. It was better to use them as bait.
While killing some of his own brothers who had rushed out, he also provided cover so that his own side could retreat quickly.

"It's really Guo Guizi, he really knows how to fight a war."

Jiang Cheng was furious. He had fought off the rebels who dared to attack him, but he still fell into the trap of that old bastard. Jiang Cheng was extremely unhappy.

He immediately gave orders to support Sun Jiunian and retreat quickly, but such fierce firepower would probably kill many brothers in one go.

"Old Sun, notify the reconnaissance company to spread out all the brothers who can be spread out - focus on searching along Gaoqiao towards Lianshan."

Jiang Cheng's face sank. "I'm sure they will still gather in Lianshan."

"Also, the people sent out to look for Liu Runchuan haven't come back yet? What's going on?"

…………

Just as Jiang Cheng speculated, Guo Songling used the artillery fire to retreat and still chose to go to Lianshan.

Although the city was blown to pieces in the previous air raid, it is still defensible... and it is also a good place to station troops.

The next morning, before Jiang Cheng got out of his warm bed, Yang Yuting had Han Ming notify him and stood by his bed.

Despite his obvious restraint, Jiang Cheng still easily sensed the pride in his eyes: "The Marshal's Mansion has informed us that the Kwantung Army in Luda has set out to Liaoxi at the invitation of the Marshal's Mansion." Kwantung Army?
Damn it, Zhang Yuting is really something... There was a rebellion in his own little piece of land, and he actually asked the Japanese for help!
"Well, that means there's no need for our Ji army to charge up there, right?"

Jiang Cheng stood up slowly, and did not take the telegram paper handed to him. Instead, he took his shirt and cotton jacket and put them on slowly.

Clearly hearing the sarcasm in his words, Yang Yuting immediately put on his chief of staff posture: "Jiang Feilan, I admit that you fought well this time."

"But no matter what, you are one of our own in the Northeast... You know who to side with, right?"

Damn it, you sent away most of the Fengtian Army’s main forces that night. Your “anti-Fengtian record” is much more impressive than Guo’s. How dare you show off in front of me?
Jiang Cheng's eyes sparked, but he still said slowly after putting on his military boots: "That's right, it's better than some people knowing that the kang over there is hotter."

At first, he and Xu Shuzheng tried to get the military funds from Fengtian Army, which angered the Marshal. At that time, he scolded him by saying that the kang was hot over there, and you should know it.

Yang Yuting was naturally furious when these words came out, but Jiang Cheng did not give him a chance to speak. Instead, he gathered his hair and continued, "The Japanese have always been unaware of the rabbit before they release the eagle..."

"You came so quickly this time. What benefits did you promise to the devils?"

Jiang Cheng took the brunt of the attack on Guo Guizi this time, fearing the Marshal's move -

Originally in history, Guo Songling's rebellion against Fengtian not only wiped out most of the elite troops of the Fengtian Army, but also won victory after victory and took Jinzhou at lightning speed and marched straight to Fengtian.

The Marshal was extremely anxious, but he was unable to get reinforcements from Jilin and Heilongjiang provinces, so he came up with a bad idea to burn down his residence, saying that if Guo Guizi came to his residence, he would be left with only a teapot with a broken spout and three tea bowls, at least one of which would have a broken handle - he could not expect anything good to happen.

But the Japanese came knocking on the door at this time... Come to think of it, this Marshal was supported by them;

Especially in the second Zhi-Feng War, the Japanese also made great efforts. Besides, the Japanese knew very well that Jiang Cheng of Jilin was cheating them openly and secretly, and Guo Songling was an even tougher "anti-Japanese" than him. If he really came to power, the interests of Japan in the Northeast would not be guaranteed.

Moreover, if Zhili and Fengtian won the war, the Marshal would have the ability to take control of the capital. If they wanted to expand their interests in China, they would naturally reach out at this time.

He had a good idea. He personally went out to fight Guo Songling off, thus indirectly preventing the Japanese from continuing to invade Northeast China and China.

But he had the intention, but the Marshal had no intention.

This old fox... no matter how great a hero he is, he is ultimately just a short-sighted warlord who only focuses on the benefits at hand.

The more Jiang Cheng thought about it, the more disheartened he became... He suddenly felt that letting what happened in Huanggutun happen wasn't such a bad thing.

Under such a warlord system, it was only a matter of time before the Japanese gradually encroached on Northeast China and even China.

It's really time for change.

"I understand what Chief Counsellor Yang meant..."

After Jiang Cheng secretly made up his mind, he immediately changed his expression and looked back, "How to fight the next battle, the Ji army will naturally follow the commander's lead."

No matter how smart Yang Yuting was, he could not have expected Jiang Cheng's psychological change... He thought that he was just unhappy that the credit was being snatched away by the Japanese, which was why he made those sarcastic remarks.

Then, seeing that he lowered his head and looked submissive again, the chief of staff of the Fengtian Army slowly said, "Don't worry, just wait for the news from the friendly forces."

"By the way, how is the battle between your father and Ji Jinchun going?" (End of this chapter)
