War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 349: The Big Buddha Didn't Come After All (Thanks to 'The Anti-Japanese Alliance Has Passed From Here' for the Thousand Rewards!)

"Old Feng gave up the Chahar regime, which was taken over by Song Zheyuan of the 29th Army. Shang Zhen took over the troops that had just been formed."

This was the process Xu Chaoyang had seen in history. What he wondered was why Yang Jingyu told him about this historical process.

Years ago, it was a cold winter.

The winter of this year was not very cold, perhaps because of the geographical location. Anyway, Xu Chaoyang, who was used to living in the Northeast, did not feel how cold the winter in the Pingjin area was at all.

At this time, he was standing downstairs of Dagu Shipyard, with one hand on his waist and a cigarette in the other hand, listening to Yang Jingyu's hurried description of the recent situation in Chahar.

Due to the pincer attack by He Yingqin and the Japanese, Lao Feng had to give up the good situation he had just won in Chahar and handed over the government of the four recovered counties of Duolun to Song Zheyuan of the 29th Army...

Xu Chaoyang would not be surprised no matter whether the news was delivered by the 29th Army or He Yingqin, but what about Yang Jingyu?
Yang Jingyu glanced at Xu Chaoyang and said with a smile: "The power that Lao Feng has built in Chahar has our shadow."

At that moment, Xu Chaoyang's eyes widened!

No wonder, no wonder Old Feng was so excited this time, and after the end of the Great Wall War, he directly sang the song of victory in Chahar;
No wonder the diary writer got so angry when he heard about this!
In the past, Xu Chaoyang was busy studying the war and the battle situation but rarely studied the political situation. This time, after listening to Yang Jingyu's words, he finally understood what was going on.

"Our people have always been in Chahar helping Lao Feng in the comprehensive anti-Japanese war..."

As soon as Yang Jingyu said this, Xu Chaoyang remembered the name 'Ji Hongchang', which was very familiar to him and had always been promoted by our party. The most important thing was that after this incident came to an end, Lao Feng was forced to study. An old warlord was forced to study after losing power!

Even so, the person who wrote the diary did not let Ji Hongchang go and continued to hunt him down.

But, something doesn't seem right.

"Old Yang, what do you mean?"

Yang Jingyu nodded: "Ji Hongchang, the hero who commanded the anti-Japanese war on the front line in Chahar, has come to Tianjin."

In an instant, Xu Chaoyang took a breath of cold air!
Ji Hongchang, the commander-in-chief in front of the enemy and commander of the Second Army, actually went to Tianjin?

"Now, in the concession!"

When he finished speaking, Xu Chaoyang immediately responded, "What are you going there for?"

What Xu Chaoyang meant was, we already have a home in Dagu Shipyard, why should we stay outside?
But Yang Jingyu laughed happily when he heard this. He patted Xu Chaoyang's arm with great satisfaction and said, "I knew I was right!"

"Fuck you!"

The two of them cooperated very well, and even chatted in a haphazard manner. Yang Jingyu meant that in such a sensitive period, Xu Chaoyang's first reaction to hearing the news was to take Ji Hongchang, the anti-Japanese hero, to his side for protection, which made his long-standing trust worthwhile;
Xu Chaoyang treated this as a test and started cursing.

"We have communicated with General Ji Hongchang. The general does not want to destroy the good situation we have created, so he would rather hide in the concession than come to Dagu Shipyard." But Lao Yang never said whether he was one of them or not.

"He's afraid..."

Hearing these two words, Xu Chaoyang felt a little nervous.

"He's afraid of affecting the environment we just created in the Jidong area." At this point, Yang Jingyu lowered his voice and said, "The people from the south should be here soon. I also heard that the diary writer personally issued a killing order against General Ji Hongchang!"

"What nonsense!" Xu Chaoyang turned around in a hurry, and when he walked back to Yang Jingyu, he asked, "Do I know who are the people from the south?"

"do not know."

"In Tianjin, if they dare to come, I will kill them!"

Xu Chaoyang was furious: "But if they hide in the concession, what do you want me to do? If I dare to lead the troops to rush in, it will be equivalent to declaring war on the other country!" "Our country is in such a tattered state, who can I declare war on right now! Who can I dare to declare war on?"

Yang Jingyu pondered for a moment, then waved his hand: "They... are not doing the same thing as us." Why does Xu Chaoyang feel like Ji Hongchang doesn't seem like one of their own?

Then, Yang Jingyu narrated what Ji Hongchang did on this land after Chahar conquered the four counties of Duolun.

First, Ji Hongchang led more than 3000 people to join Gao Shuxun of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, intending to establish a base, but was chased and intercepted by He Yingqin's troops. Later, he was forced into a corner and joined forces with Fang Zhenwu to attack Beiping...

Peking?

"Where do you think he's going to hit?" Xu Chaoyang asked with an 'incredible' look on his face, he couldn't even speak!
"Beiping." After saying these two words, Yang Jingyu seemed embarrassed to continue.

"Oh~" Xu Chaoyang then let out an exclamation, it turned out that he had heard it correctly.

Soon after, when the troops were about to approach Beijing, they encountered leaflets dropped by Japanese planes, saying that if they did not leave immediately, they would send troops to attack.

Peking has just calmed down, and the war with the Japanese has just ended...

Ji Hongchang had no choice but to leave. The problem was that soon after they left, they were surrounded by He Yingqin's troops together with the Shanxi Army and the Northwest Army. The troops that had been gathered with great difficulty were defeated on the spot.

Ji Hongchang led the remaining troops and held out until they ran out of ammunition and food before going to Shangzhen to negotiate.

The result was that he was caught on the spot by Shang Zhen, and the news was reported to Jinling. The reply given by the diary writer was to hand it over to Beiping for handling.

Now comes the interesting part!

You can say that Ji Hongchang couldn't see the situation clearly, or that he was in too high a position and had no way to start from a low position. Anyway, all the choices he made along the way were full of mistakes, whether it was attacking Peiping or negotiating with Shangzhen of the 26th Army. However... the most interesting thing is that the person who wrote the diary actually wanted to hand Ji Hongchang over to He Yingqin for handling!
He mistook Ji Hongchang for Guan Yu's head. He knew that Ji Hongchang was an anti-Japanese hero, but he wanted to kill him but didn't want to get his hands dirty, so he planned to throw the dirty water on He Yingqin.

What’s even more interesting is that on the way to Beijing for interrogation, the people escorting Ji Hongchang were actually moved, and under such circumstances, Ji Hongchang was released…

Um, what does this equate to?

It was equivalent to that when Lu Meng and Lu Xun had just received the news that Guan Yu had been captured, the second piece of news that came was that his subordinates were moved by Guan Yu's emotional appeal and reasoning and let him go.

If there is no one hiding behind the scenes who speaks up, who would dare to do so?

If this happened in Xu Chaoyang's 217th Regiment, he would not only kill the person responsible, but also his squad leader and platoon leader!
What's the difference between this and shouting "I want to mutiny" in front of Xu Chaoyang?
Alas, this happened just like that, and Ji Hongchang even escaped to the concession. The Republic of China was truly full of surprises.

Anyway, in this battle between He Yingqin and the diary writer, after the diary writer, Young Master Song, first gave Xu Chaoyang the "Blue Sky and White Sun Medal" and slapped the top leader of Peking in the face, He Yingqin finally got his head slammed in return. For such a big country, if the head of the country acts as if it's a joke, how can this be tolerated?
Ji Hongchang too, you have already arrived at the concession, why don’t you quickly find a way to escape from North China and run to the Soviet area?

He didn't mind. According to Old Yang, Ji Hongchang was thinking about forming an "anti-fascist alliance" in the concession. He was looking for money, guns, and soldiers all over the world, intending to make it bigger and stronger.

Hearing this, Xu Chaoyang's eyes never got smaller. He admitted that Ji Hongchang was a hero and really fought against the Japanese in Chahar, but why did this hero's next actions become so out of place?
Of course, Xu Chaoyang didn't say this. He didn't say a word in front of Lao Yang. Maybe it was a good thing that the great hero didn't come. It was also a good thing that his temple was too small to accommodate this big Buddha.

"Give me some money. After all, it's a token of our appreciation, right?" After saying that, Xu Chaoyang turned and left.

　Thanks for the 1,000 awards for "The Anti-Japanese Alliance Has Passed From Here". I have made a lot of them. I have started to make a scene. If you want that thing, you have to give it as a gift. It's almost enough.

　　Thanks brother, but don’t type it anymore. Just give a thumbs up if you enjoy it.

　　Love you guys, love you all.
