Mai Ke finished making a summary of the stages and expelled his thoughts from his thoughts about the consideration of future work, saying that at present, it is necessary to first conclude the enemy's last line of Chinese army before it can be regarded as an end to this anti-purging campaign.

Mai Ketong guò made a move, and at the same time contacted Peter and Wu Renxiao, and checked with them about the current situation of both the enemy and us. Wu Renxiao and his intelligence officers were keeping a close eye on Peng Yulin's fleet.

"Now the fleet has approached Guigang and is preparing to go in. At the same time, according to the intelligence officers who are keeping an eye on the escape here, they have begun to enter the port and will meet soon. In addition, the enemy's boot carvings have increased a lot, and our Xuanxiao is a little outnumbered. ”

Wu Renxiao reported the situation of all parties clearly in just a few words, and he deserved to be a top intelligence master.

And Peter, although not an intelligence officer, his debriefing is more capable, because he is an admiral!

"I'm at Dingtian Lake. All of them are ready, ready to set off at any time, and enter the attack!" But as soon as the conversation changed, he changed someone: "Hey, hey, little Jonah is here, enough for them to drink a pot." ”

It seems that this little John is really a militant, there is no such thing as it, he has to come. It's okay to let it accumulate some experience first, which will also help it participate in the war in the future.

"Okay! Now set off immediately! Reach the downstream section of the river near Guigang, as soon as the enemy's fleet passes, immediately block the river and prevent a single boat from returning!"

At this time, the military headquarters of the Chinese army, which had cleared the enemy army, had already arrived in Guigang and was temporarily set up in the dispatch building of the port management department. It is a two-storey building, and from the top of the hill you can see the entire harbor and all the ships upstream and downstream in front of the harbor. Whether it's in the past or it's still mooring.

At this time, the four men stood in front of the window, anxiously staring to the east, where a large number of large and small ships were coming from downstream. While watching, listen to the report of the Eagle Dive in charge of intelligence work.

In addition to Eagle Dive, it is Li Hongzhang, Lao Chongguang, and Xiang Rong.

They commanded the Chinese army to flee from Jintian to here, and the 80-kilometer journey took three days, with little rest in between. Their methods are endless. Don't pay attention to it. It will fall into their hands.

In the process of escaping, in addition to taking harsh measures to suppress the signs of instability, the officials also sued everyone that they would be safe when they arrived in Guigang.

Now it's finally at its destination. It's like everyone is falling apart. Slumped on the ground.

At this time. Eagle Dive finally saw the expected group of ships. The symbol is the largest ship, with a towering mast praising a huge red flag. At this time, the signal is agreed in advance.

At the same time, Mai Ke also received a notice from Wu Renxiao. It is said that the Qing army has entered the port, and the enemy's fleet is rapidly approaching the port. And our own fleet, in the section of the river where the enemy ships pass through Guò, has already completed the stuck position.

At the same time, the Heavenly Army, which had been chasing all the way, had also assembled on the periphery of Guigang to prevent the enemy from escaping in other directions. This is a waterway coalition army commanded by Zhang Yuan.

The enemy had begun to flee, so Zhang Yuan transferred the men guarding Jintian Village and asked them to guard the Tibetan Cave, and replaced the elite who originally guarded the Tibetan Cave to pursue the enemy.

After countless battles of all sizes, the two sides suffered casualties on each other, and in the end, no one could occupy the absolute upper hand, and they kept fighting, and they arrived in Guigang with their feet in front and behind. The Qing army was picked up by the troops defending the port, and Zhang Yuan commanded the troops to block the land exit of Guigang, and they were still facing each other from a distance.

By this time, the fleet had already entered the harbor and was close to berth. Li Hongzhang and Peng Yulin met and simply exchanged a few words of greeting, and immediately began to board the ship.

Eagle Diving also communicated the situation with the disciple of the Hidden Eagle Pavilion on the ship, and knew that it was this disciple who was responsible for arranging the secrecy of the disguise and itinerary. After knowing the basics, Eagle Diving asked him if there was anything suspicious.

The disciple pondered for a while before he slowly said, "The disciple feels a little abnormal. If the enemy is really as difficult as you say, it shouldn't be so smooth. No matter how well we disguise ourselves, it is impossible not to show a little clue. And if the other party knows, but does not act, then ...... It's a terrible situation......"

He looked at the eagle dive and saw his encouraging look, took a deep breath, and said heavily: "I am afraid that the enemy has seen the fire, we are in the light, they are in the dark, and they are ready to give us a fatal blow at any time!"

Ying Qian's face was also worried, obviously thinking that this disciple was reasonable, so he asked, "Ying Qian, you are worthy of being the best disciple of the younger generation. The concern is quite justified. In your opinion, if it is really as you say, how can you break the situation?"

"I've been thinking about it for a long time, and I still don't know how to crack it. The enemy clearly played a very large game of chess, and in the overall view, they were better than the Manchus, and not only that, but they were also stronger on the chessboard than we were. So in the overall disadvantage, it is useless in clever tricks. Besides, it seems that our tricks stink more than a little bit more than each other's. "This Takazo is clearly also proficient in chess.

"Shall we sit back then?" asked Eagle Diving.

"Today's plan is to focus on self-preservation, because we can't do anything to change the big picture. ”

After some calculations, these two no longer have hope for reversing the overall situation, and they are all making a fuss about self-preservation. As part of this, they gathered all the boot carvings together to form a tight protective net in the sky around Guigang.

These boot carvings include 100 combat-type boot carvings newly transferred from the Northern Economic Headquarters, which are reinforced boot carvings that have undergone special feeding and special training, and are specially designed to protect intelligence eagles and attack enemy eagles.

By this time, all the Qing troops had already boarded the ships, most of the ships were already at full capacity, and the waterline had sunk by at least one meter.

There was no ostentatious ceremony, and the officials guarding the port were forbidden to see them off. In the darkness of the night, the ships quietly sailed out in the direction they had come.

Before sailing, after thinking about it repeatedly, Eagle Diving still informed Li Hongzhang and others of his worries. Such unsubstantiated fears, no matter how much they are possible, cannot be treated as reality. Moreover, there seems to be no way to solve it, even in practice.

However, they made some temporary adjustments to the retreat plan.

At present, there are only three people left in the huge command room -- Li Hongzhang, Peng Yulin, and Ying Qian; Lao Chongguang and Xiang Rong do not know where they have gone.

The fleet had just sailed to the open water east of the harbor when an earth-shattering cannon roared!

Then two rows of tall warships split their wings like goose wings and burst out of the waves!

There seemed to be one hundred and eighty large throats shouting in unison: "Come on, stop, get checked!" (to be continued......
