Chapter 236 [Warlords of the Republic of China] The War Begins
In the following days, Jiang Zuilan never saw Shen Zhongqi. Shen Zhongqi went out early and came back late every day, as if he was busy with some important matter. The atmosphere in the Young Marshal's Mansion was also a bit solemn.
The weather in early autumn has also become sultry and the sky is dark and heavy, as if a storm is brewing.
In the study, Shen Zhongqi frowned slightly and looked at Zhang Shen who came in to report: "How is the war going?"
"Commander, our troops defeated the Japanese troops marching south in Yishui three days ago, blocked the Lunan front line, and expelled everyone."
"Did they do anything else?"
A trace of cruelty flashed across Zhang Shen's dark face, and he said: "The spies reported that after the Japanese troops withdrew from the Xizhou border, they were still entrenched in Lunan. They have not gone south again for the past two days, but they have always been ready to make a move. I'm afraid there are still more The picture is just for fear——”
"I see."
Shen Zhongqi waved his hand lightly, seemingly not taking the Japanese troops seriously at all, and said, "What did you just say you were doing at the North Gate?"
"Young Marshal, today another group of people went south, seeking to enter the city and return to their hometowns. I was worried, so I went to inspect them personally.
"Oh?" Shen Zhongqi raised his eyebrows and said, "Who are they?"
"Businessman, checking identity documents."
Shen Zhongqi thought for a while and said, "Take me over and have a look."
Zhang Shen hesitated for a moment, as if he wanted to say something, but Shen Zhongqi ignored him and walked outside.
"Young Marshal!"
Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the city gate, a soldier suddenly ran up on horseback from outside the city. When he saw Shen Zhongqi and Zhang Shen, he quickly dismounted his horse, his face was pale and out of breath, and he performed a military salute in front of them and said hurriedly , "Young Marshal!"
"What's up?"
"The spies came to report that suddenly a group of people came down from Yishui and headed straight for Xizhou."
"What?!" Zhang Shen was shocked. He had just driven the Japanese army out of the border a few days ago and finally won a battle. Why did he send out troops again so soon? When he heard this, he immediately turned to look at Shen Zhongqi. At first glance, he seemed to be worried about something.
Shen Zhongqi sneered, "Get ready to deploy!"
Zhang Shen seemed to sense something and hurriedly turned around and followed Shen Zhongqi away.
As soon as they left, chaos broke out at the North City Gate because the gate was about to be closed, but everyone outside was anxious, fearing that they would be implicated in the war if they stayed outside. In the end, Shen Zhongqi ordered these people to be let in When he came to the city, he was surrounded by a group of soldiers and checked one by one to avoid anything happening.
In the study room, Shen Zhongqi still held a piece of paper in his hand. His fingers were so hard that their joints were turning white. It seemed that he wanted to crush the paper into powder. After a long time, he crushed the paper in his hand into a ball.
Walking to the door, he asked Zhang Shen, "Has everything been arranged in the army?"
"It has been arranged. I have already dispatched everyone in the camp. The Japanese army will be stopped and annihilated a hundred miles south of Xizhou. The city gate has also been protected. No matter what, the Japanese army must not be allowed to attack! "
"Okay! I will personally lead the team to annihilate the enemy. I will order people in the city to strengthen protection and beware of people with ulterior motives."
Shen Zhongqi nodded and ordered.
In the small courtyard, Jiang Zuilan looked thoughtfully at the dark clouds on the horizon. The clouds seemed a little abnormal, vaguely filled with gunpowder smoke. It seemed that the stable life might not last long.
She had just come to her senses and heard Shen Zhongqi's footsteps. She turned around and saw Shen Zhongqi walking over.
Under the bright sun, the man's face showed a hint of exhaustion, and there was indeed a smell of gunpowder smoke on his body. Jiang Zuilan knew that it was the smell of the battlefield.
