Chapter 111: It's hard to reward heroes in the sea

On the third day, the main force of Ding Ruchang's Beiyang Fleet successfully arrived at the port of Tianjin, but the transportation capacity was limited, and the Beiyang Fleet could only transport less than 8,000 men at a time, and if horses and ammunition were added, the number of troops transported would be even less. In the end, Li Hongzhang ordered Ding Ruchang to mobilize the maximum transportation capacity and transport the new army and baggage to North Korea in two batches.

When Zhang Yi and the others were nervously deploying, the guards came in to report and said: "Lord Junmen, there are a few people outside the door, and the leaders claim to be Tan Sitong and Liang Qichao, and ask to see your lordship. ”

When Zhang Yi heard this, he hurriedly said, "Hurry up and invite them in." ”

In the blink of an eye, Tan Sitong, Liang Qichao, Lin Xu and others walked in from outside.

Tan Sitong laughed loudly: "Brother Jianzhixian, one day, I want to mess with the foolish brother." ”

Zhang Yi bowed his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "Brother Fusheng, Brother Zhuoru, Huangu, you have finally rushed over, and one day later, I will have to wait for the warship and rush directly to North Korea." ”

Liang Qichao said with a smile: "I heard that the new army was about to march to North Korea, and the three of us rushed over day and night, just to see off Jianzhi's virtuous brother, and we must have a drink with Jianzhi today." ”

Zhang Yi asked, "We brothers have time to drink, but what I want to know is, how is the study tour progressing now?" ”

Tan Sitong said with a smile: "Jianzhi, the study tour is going well, I'm afraid there will be more than 100 people going out, and for various disciplines will be involved, we also understand that if China wants to be strong, there must be a group of talents to emerge, we have combed it, it is estimated that at the latest half a month, our group of people will really leave for Shanghai, from Shanghai to England, do not learn real and useful things, we will never come." ”

Zhang Yi said with a smile: "This is the best, I have already played the matter of funds to Lord Zhongtang, he has allocated 50,000 taels of silver to me at one time, enough for you to use, you should also pay attention, to the West, where the life is not familiar, now my Qing Dynasty is weak, foreigners look down on us, can try not to cause trouble, just endure the anger for a while, our priority is to return from school, reimbursement of the country." ”

Tan Sitong smiled and said: "Jianzhi, you can relax, we are all adults, and we will do things in a measured way." ”

Zhang Yi nodded, and then said: "Brother Fusheng, I suggest that you should not concentrate in one country, you can act separately, divide into four groups, go to Britain, France, Germany and the United States respectively, three years, after three years, return from study, when the time comes, I hope to see a group of elites who can really bring great changes to China." ”

Tan Sitong replied: "You can rest assured that we have already arranged it, four countries, and we have designated a person in charge for each batch of people, who is responsible for coordinating all the problems encountered in the study tour." These things can't be difficult for us, three years, three years later, I think Jianzhi should either defend one side and become a feudal official, or settle in the center and become a pillar of the imperial court. When the time comes, we will all gather under your banner for you to drive, this Qing Dynasty, what the future can become, all in your hands, Jianzhi, I will never lie, I have a hunch, three years later, the Qing Dynasty will definitely have earth-shaking changes because of you! ”

Zhang Yi smiled indifferently and said: "Brother Fusheng, three years, three years later, when you return, I, Zhang Yi, will be your backing and fully support you in social innovation, no matter what position I am in, whether it is above the court or far away from the rivers and lakes, the younger brother will fully support it, and return a bright future!" Now, I am about to go to sea to fight in Korea, and all my brothers and sisters are also going to the ocean, we are all for the rejuvenation of China, and this sea is the testimony of us today. Come on, pen and ink waiting! ”

The people on the side brought up the four treasures of the study, and Zhang Yi said in his heart, let's be shameless today, steal the masterpiece of the sage, and cheer up for this group of hot-blooded people. Zhang Yi thought, waving the wolf's hair, with a wave, Zhang Yi's calligraphy can only be regarded as average, after all, in his era, calligraphy was no longer a must-have, and he only occasionally dabbled, a Su style, and the writing was quite chic. However, this verse is not covered: Da Jiang Ge turned his head to the east, and Mi Mi Qun helped the poor world. Facing the wall for ten years, it is difficult to reward the heroes of the sea!

"What a literary style! What a spirit! Jianzhi, I really didn't expect that your literary talent is so high, it really makes me and other scholars ashamed, good! It's hard to reward heroes in the sea! Tan Sitong, Liang Qichao, and Lin Xu praised repeatedly, how could such a proud and dry poem not make them applaud!

Zhang Yi's face was slightly red, he really couldn't do more of this kind of thing, and he stole the poems of the late Prime Minister, I am afraid that one day he will get to know the Prime Minister underground one day, and he will be embarrassed, helplessly, who made his ancient literary skills too weak, in this era, if he wants to write a poem that they praise, he is still far behind.

Zhang Yi's heart was horizontal, and he shouted: "The little brother will use this poem to encourage all the brothers, three years later, all the brothers will return, you and I will work together!" ”

In the end, everyone returned happily during the banquet, the general calligraphy work, was indeed put away by Tan Sitong, who was quick and quick-eyed, this is the first ink treasure of the Qing Dynasty heroes, it is definitely the treasure that the Qing Dynasty scholars dream of, and finally made Liang Qichao and Lin Xu glared at Tan Sitong angrily, angrily accusing him of not being righteous and not paying attention to the rules, Tan Sitong was cheeky and admitted that he was the highest in age, and he had to belong to him in terms of seniority, and the two of them had no choice but to give up, who let the things have entered his hands? What's more, this kid can do two tricks, but the two of them are weak scholars who can deal with it.

Early the next morning, Zhang Yi shook hands with the three of them and said goodbye, led 5,000 new troops from the Zhongzi Department and the Yizi Department, boarded the Beiyang warship heading east, and prepared to leave for Korea.

Zhang Yi stood in front of the Zhongxin Army, and Wang Wu and Li Gang stood on his left and right. Zhang Yi shouted in a harmonious voice: "Brothers, although we have just formed the army, the war in Korea is urgent, and we can no longer train in a step-by-step manner. Since ancient times, the invincible army is forged in the fight of blood and fire, and now, Admiral Nie is fighting a bloody battle with the Japanese army in Korea, once the Japanese army breaks through the defense line, it will march eastward, invade my Qing Dynasty, humiliate my sisters, enslave my compatriots, and plunder my mountains and rivers. ”

"Can't!"

"Okay, I'll take you to the front line and kill the Oriental devils! Are you afraid? ”

"Don't be afraid!"

"Expelling the Orient! Keep my mountains and rivers! ”

"Expelling the Orient! Keep my mountains and rivers! ”
