Jinzhou National Temporary Government Northeast Army General Command.
Zhang Shao Shuai was currently worrying about the follow-up problems of the fall of the three eastern provinces and the highly likely battle to defend Jinzhou.
Fengtian's 'non-resistance policy' resulted in the fall of Fengtian Province by 200 Japanese soldiers overnight. Once Fengtian fell, Shenyang, Andong, Liaoyang, and all of them fell. The Japanese army directly threatened Jinzhou. One had to know that once Jinzhou was lost, Shanhaiguan would be lost…
The entire Three Eastern Provinces, the blood and sweat of Zhang Shao Shuai's father, Marshal Zhang, had been given to the Japanese for nothing!
Commander Zhang didn't even bother to smoke his favorite cigarette. Sighs could be heard in the headquarters. The adjutant ran until he broke his legs. He kept receiving news from all sides. The national government was negotiating with the Japanese, but the government was still as cowardly as ever. They asked the Japanese to use Jinzhou as the boundary and stop fighting. However, the Japanese felt that Jinzhou posed a threat to the safety of Fengtian.
At present, only the acting head of the government of Heilongjiang Province, Ma Zhanshan, led a few security groups to resist the Japanese invasion alone in Jiangqiao. The other provincial leaders either surrendered or were destroyed by the Japanese army.
Not a single piece of good news came from outside, causing Zhang Shao Shuai's heart to sink even deeper.
"Damn it, Zhang Jinghui actually betrayed us? He was the Minister of Military and Political Affairs of the Eastern Province! The entire defense system of Fengtian had completely collapsed. Even the power of the Ministry of Civil Affairs had defected to the enemy. How could the country still be defended?”
Zhang Shao Shuai, who had just heard a new telegram from his adjutant, cursed loudly. He kicked the chair in front of him and panted heavily with his hands on his hips.
After a long while, Zhang Shao Shuai's breathing calmed down a little, and he asked the adjutant in a low voice,"What did the chairman say about this? Did you manage to negotiate with the Japanese?”
Zhang Shao Shuai's adjutant, Lu Zhengcao, was holding a stack of telegrams. When he heard this, his body trembled and he said,""Reporting to the Major, the Generalissimo only said that he is negotiating with the Japanese and there is no news yet.”
"But we received an extremely strange message yesterday afternoon, and we received the news that the Japanese army's Shinta Brigade was completely annihilated in the early hours of the morning.”
"Major, it's this message."
After saying that, Lu Zhengcao passed a message to Zhang Shao Shuai.
"What is it? A battalion of Japanese soldiers? Our 300,000-strong Northeast Army has not been able to wipe out any of the Japanese.”
Zhang Shao Shuai's eyebrows trembled, his tone filled with disbelief. He took the message and carefully examined it.
The more he read, the more interesting Zhang Shao Shuai's expression became. Finally, after reading the message, he couldn't help but mutter,"Lu Yi…Lu Yi..."
In the end, Zhang Shao Shuai said in a deep voice,"This person is really a good son of our northeast. However, why have I never heard of his name before? Also, to be able to annihilate a Japanese brigade, he must have three to five times the strength of the Japanese army. Such a large armed force was only exposed after the Japanese invasion.”
" No, Young Marshal. According to our intel in Yanji, this person is the leader of the Blue Cloud Stronghold in Langbai Mountain. I heard that he has just taken over as the leader. He only has 800 soldiers under him, and 200 of them are old, weak, and sick…"
Lu Zhengcao's forehead was dripping with sweat as he replied in a trembling voice.
Zhang Shao Shuai's eyes immediately widened as he shouted,"Motherf * cker…A group of 800 bandits wiped out a 1,000-strong Japanese army?”
"Who is this Lu Yi?”
"Immediately issue me a commendation order and request this army to go to the Black Province to join Governor Ma Zhanshan and fight against the Japanese. Tell Lu Yi that as long as he is willing to fight against the Japanese and help our Zhang family take back the Northeast, he will be Guo Songling of our Northeast!”
Zhang Shao Shuai's face lit up with joy. There was finally an army in the northeast that could face the Japanese head-on. This was simply a great thing.
He didn't care whether this army was bandits or not. As long as he could delay the Japanese's occupation of the entire northeast, he was willing to pay any price.
"But... Young Marshal…This code was destroyed after sending this telegram. We can't contact this army, and Fengtian Province is blocked by the Japanese.”
Lu Zhengcao said with difficulty. He didn't want to say that this telegram was actually meant to despise the Northeast Army. Destroying the code meant that Lu Yi didn't look up to the Northeast Army at all.
The Major was silent for a while before he finally said,""Although the tiger cub hasn't formed any patterns, it already has the aura of a cow!”
"This person's spirit is really great. No matter what, we should think of a way to send the commendation order and good intentions to Langbai Mountain and give him the title of Fengtian City's garrison commander. Tell him that as long as he dares to attack Fengtian City, Fengtian City will be his.”
"Yes, sir! Young Marshal, I will definitely think of a way to deliver your words to Lu Yi of Langbai Mountain!”
Lu Zhengcao gave a military salute and left the office.

Changchun Japan Railroad Kwantung Army General Command.
The commander-in-chief of Japan's Kwantung Army, General Hiroshi Hiroshi, was sitting in front of his desk. His fingers were trembling slightly as he held a message that he had just received. His heaving chest showed his extremely uneasy mood.
Two rows of Japanese officers stood neatly outside the desk. They lowered their heads and did not dare to breathe loudly. They knew that the commander-in-chief was angry.
The Kwantung Army had just successfully invaded Fengtian City and occupied the entire territory of Fengtian City under the hopes of the Tokyo Army Department. They did not expect to encounter such a huge setback in just a few days.
An entire brigade, more than a thousand loyal imperial soldiers, had been buried in the mountains and rivers for no reason!
This was the greatest setback the Guandong Army had encountered since the invasion of China!
This was intolerable!
After a long time, General Honshaka finally put down the message in his hand and stood up. He looked in the direction of Tokyo and lowered his head slightly. He apologized in a low voice,"Your Majesty, I have failed you! (Japanese)"
"Commander-in-chief! (Japanese)"
"Commander-in-chief!"
"Commander-in-chief!"
The officers at the side all shouted and almost stepped forward. Their hearts were filled with grief and despair.
Ben Zhuangfan waved his hand and put away the message on the table. His eyes were cold.
"Immediately call Muto Kun and order him to eliminate this bandit leader called Lu Yi within three days. Also, take him to Fengtian and bring him to justice in public. (Japanese)"
"If he can't wash away his shame, then the imperial army's reputation will be tarnished forever. Not only him, but even I will have to resign! (Japanese)"
"And issue a wanted order to all of Manchuria! If anyone could get the head of the bandit leader Lu Yi, the imperial army would reward them with 30,000 silver dollars! (Japanese)"
"The prestige of the imperial army cannot be tarnished! (Japanese)"
"Yes, sir! Commander-in-chief! He would definitely complete the mission! (Japanese)"
The Japanese officers replied in unison.
