Chapter 170: Changyingjun, is that you?
"The Qing state claimed that it had used two battalions of about 1,400 men, with 119 killed and 51 seriously wounded; There should be a lot of moisture in it. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
What is the combat strength of the Qing army, Keisuke Otori has seen it with his own eyes in Seoul, in his opinion, this Dongxian Ridge ambush, the Qing army's military strength must be at least three or four thousand people, and the losses are definitely far greater than the empire.
But there is no basis for this matter, the 229 captives of the Qing army are genuine things, and there is only speculation on his side.
"1,400 people? These Qing troops can really blow! β
Chief of Staff of the First Army of the Japanese Army's 'Expedition' and the author of "Qing Expedition Strategy", Major General Ogawa said angrily: "This number is at least doubled, and without an ambush of more than 5,000 troops, this effect will definitely not be able to be fought with the combat strength of the Qing army." β
Keisuke Otori nodded, did not dwell on this matter, and continued: "The telegram said that the name of the commander of this battle of the Qing army is He Changying, who is very young, only in his early twenties, and his official position is also very low, just a five-rank garrison. β
"In your early twenties, a five-grade guard? It's not too low. β
Shoutaro Komura, the former acting temporary minister of the Oriental to China, who was sarcastically called the 'rat minister' by the ministers of the diplomatic missions in Beijing, interjected softly.
Keisuke Otori glanced at his colleague and showed a puzzled expression: "I deliberately checked all the battalion officers of the Qing army, but I didn't find this name." β
When he heard the name 'He Changying', Inoue Kirou's heart jumped, and he turned his head to look at his cousin Xiaoman in Shanxian County.
Shan County Xiaoman's delicate face was also slightly stunned, and then he returned to his light and breezy appearance, and raised his eyes to look at Inoue Yoshiro.
"He Changying!"
Youpeng in Shanxian shouted loudly, turned his head and glared at his nephew.
"Uncle, uncleβ"
Inoue Yoshiro was frightened by Yama Prefecture Aritomo's big red face like a monkey's buttocks and his eyes full of fierceness, and he took a big step back.
"Isn't that He Changying?"
Youpeng of Shan County glared at his nephew and shouted.
Isn't that He Changying?
This sentence of Youpeng in Shan County immediately attracted everyone's attention, and he looked at the frightened Inoue Yoshiro in surprise, thinking in his heart if they knew each other?
"Uncle, I, I don't know; However, on Dagukou Beach in Jinmen, when he beat Lev, he wore the Xiong Zhen official uniform of the five grades of the Qing Dynasty. β
Inoue Yoshiro has been used to being smoked by Yama County's friends since he was a child, and at this time, he was glared at by Yama County's bull's eye, and he only felt a 'boom' in his head, and he forgot everything, and only knew the 'pouring beans' of 1510.
I didn't see my cousin next to me squeezing her eyes in a hurry.
"Beat Lev, which Lev?"
When you heard that there was something he didn't know, he became even more furious.
Keisuke Otori also looked at the stammering Inoue Yoshiro with a serious face, Baron Lev, the assistant to the Minister of Tsarist Russia, wasn't it just this time when he came from Tsumon?
What kind of untold grievance story is there?
"It's Seoul, this Lev."
Inoue Yoshiro was shocked by his uncle's soul, and he was dizzy as if he was hypnotized.
"Why did he beat Lev?"
Youpeng in Shanxian County is even more angry, such a big matter, this bastard didn't tell himself, he really should be tied to a tree and smoked to death!
"He's becauseβ"
"Ahh
Shan County Xiaoman suddenly screamed, crooked his body and squatted on the ground, and said with a cry in his sweet voice: "My foot is broken, it hurts!" β
Kiro Inoue woke up from hypnosis all of a sudden, and Ka secretly screamed with a white face, and almost sold his cousin.
Now that so many top people in the empire are present, if this is said, sooner or later everyone in the empire will know it, and that cousin can really be ashamed to death!
"You can stand on your feet!"
Yama Youpeng angrily reprimanded his daughter, and then looked at his nephew Inoue Yoshiro and yelled, "Say! β
"It's because, because He Changying didn't like Lev, Lev scolded He Changying for being a 'yellow-skinned monkey', and He Changying scolded Lev for being a 'polar dog bear', and the two fought."
Yoshiro Inoue studied journalism in the West, and his quick wit in making up stories is still good.
It's a pity that Youpeng in Shan County is not a fool, and the reason why he brought his daughter to Seoul this time has a lot to do with Lev, who chased his daughter from France to Jinmen.
Although Shan Shan Youpeng looks down on this stupid bear from Europe, but for the sake of the empire, he uses his daughter as a bargaining chip, and Shan Shan Youpeng feels that this is a very normal and noble behavior.
My daughter should even be proud of it.
Lev's bear chased his daughter all the way to Jinmen.
Daughter Xiaoman and nephew saw that damn He Changying in Jinmen.
Lev clashed with He Changying.
He Changying arrived in North Korea, and Lev went to the East, but came to Seoul, obviously to fight He Changying!
Just now, this bastard of Shiro said the key point, and her daughter can stand on her feet when she stands?
A trace of doubt, a trace of enlightenment surged into the big face of Youpeng in Shan County, which made him even more angry.
It's not enough to lure a stupid polar bear, it's actually a pig's tail!
The more than a dozen generals of the Japanese army and navy and the officials of the Oriental garrison in Seoul who were standing on the side looked at the delicate and unparalleled red and tender face of Xiao Man in Shan County, and they all showed a trace of understanding.
Otherwise, how could an imperial earl, the daughter of the number one general of the army, and a famous star, stand rudely and stand on his feet?
Especially the few young officials in the consulate, looking at the soft and beautiful Shan County Xiaoman in a suit, their hearts were sour.
was looked at by everyone's clear eyes, and Xiaoman's little face in Shan County was suddenly dyed pink, and even a pair of crystal clear little ears turned red into transparent red agate.
"General, what is the truth of this matter, it is just a private matter of Miss Shan County, and I believe she will explain it to you later."
Keisuke Otori didn't want to make Lev's affair known to everyone, so he spoke out to stop it.
"Humph!"
Yama Youpeng glared at his daughter heavily, turned to the deputy chief of staff of the First Army, Tamura Yi and Zaonakasa, and ordered:
"The first army was ordered that in the battle against the Qing army, in case of extreme difficulties, they must not be captured by the enemy, and would rather die innocently, so as to show the integrity of the Oriental boy and protect the reputation of the Oriental boy; Otherwise, not to mention the stench for 10,000 years, it will also make the family ashamed! β
"Generals, please enter Seoul; This is the first time in thousands of years that this is the castle of the East Asian continent that I have acquired in the Oriental Empire. β
Keisuke Otori smiled at the slightly excited invitation.
Although the shame of Dongxian Ridge was an embarrassing thing, compared to the great feats achieved by the Imperial Army at this time, this loss was not worth mentioning at all.
"Let's go to the Liaodong coast."
Shiki Kayama shook his head and refused: "We got the news that the Qing fleet is going to escort the army to Andong recently, and our navy has been waiting for eight years for this naval battle since the 'Nagasaki Incident'!" β
Hearing what Shiki Huashan said, Youpeng of Shan County snorted heavily and dropped a sentence: "Xu Sheng must not be defeated, otherwise you will be the sinners of the empire through the ages!" β
After speaking, Youpeng of Shan County took the lead and walked towards the carriage parked not far away.
"Victory! Long live the Emperor! β
Ito Yuheng looked at the back of Aritomo Yamagu, who was striding away, raised his fist, and shouted resolutely.
"Victory! Long live the Emperor! β
This emotion immediately spread to all the Japanese soldiers around them, who raised their fists and shouted loudly.
The red on Shan Xiaoman's face had not completely faded at this time, she glanced at the fanatical soldiers around her, and a trace of complicated emotions surged into her face.
Between Japan and the two countries, there is finally a national war!
Changyingjun, is that battalion officer you?
- On that day, I will come to you with colorful auspicious clouds falling from the sky; You remember that before you get the news of my death, wait for me for two years, otherwise the man who dares to marry you, and the whole of the East, will face a great disaster.
Changyingjun, that battalion officer must be you.
As a girl who loves beauty and fantasy, although I also like to see my beloved man falling from the sky with colorful auspicious clouds.
But do these beautiful things have to be done by killing?
If that's the case, I really don't like it.
A hint of gloom surged up on the pretty face of Xiaoman in Shanxian County.
