Chapter 118: On the eve of the Great War
After the reinforcement army left Bochuan City, the soldiers carried rifles and packages on their backs, lined up in a long line of snakes, and marched along the post road on the south bank of the Daning River in the direction of Anzhou. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The post road is slippery, and the loess has already been soaked by the rain of this day and night, and the mud can be submerged to the calf when you step down.
The soldiers simply took off their shoes, hung their wet cloth boots around their necks, and walked barefoot.
He Changying walked less than a mile with her shoes on, and her shoes were ruined, not to mention that every leg pulled out, she had to compete with the mud, which was more tiring than walking three miles.
So he also took off his boots, but his bare feet slipped, and he hurriedly hugged Xu Ru's body walking beside him, and pressed his hands on a pair of soft rabbits tightly bound by strips of cloth.
"What is this?"
He Changying wondered, how could this skinny little glasses have such developed and soft pectoral muscles?
So He Changying fiercely used both hands to Xu Ru's left and right chests, and grabbed two handfuls heavily.
Although it was separated by strips of cloth, the soft and huge feeling was still clearly transmitted to He Changying's palm.
What's the situation, Mulan in the army?
It's still this kid, born with great chest muscles!
He Changying was thinking about it in a daze, and over there Xu Ru had already broken free from He Changying's embrace with a red face.
"Hehe, battalion commander, it's better to be round than three."
Mao Chao, the commander of the fourth infantry company in the rear team, didn't know when he caught up, and when he saw the ambiguous and disgusting 'man' scene of He Changying and his adjutant Xu Ru, he laughed in a low voice with a strange smile.
"Get out!"
This kind of bastard talk, of course Xu Ru, a student soldier from the medical hall, can't understand it, but the experienced He Changying can't understand it.
He glanced at Xu Ru's small face with big cake thick glass glasses, Xu Ru immediately lowered his head with a red face to avoid He Changying's sight, and walked away as if he was running away with small steps.
"The battalion commander has a play, I didn't expect you to love this bite, both men and women eat it!"
Mao Chao smiled obscenely.
"I'll eat your sister."
He Changying thought of Xu Ru's hoarse man's voice on weekdays, and her heart trembled, - with only this rough male duck voice, how could she be a delicate little woman?
"My sister-in-law has three babies, but I really don't like my soft brother-in-law; Although my sister looks small and average, she is docile and has plump and round bones, if you want to be my brother-in-law, when I return to Feixi, I will beat that kid out; But, hehe, since you are my brother-in-law, you can't hook up with the little widow of the good family outside, Xue Yingchun, you have to let it out. ”
He Changying suddenly had the urge to pull out the pistol in his waist and shoot this shameless lewd stick.
"Well, I didn't say it."
Seeing He Changying make a gesture of a gun, Mao Chao hurriedly changed the topic with interest: "Battalion commander, I said that the Daqing River in front, if you want to count on the team of duck egg old cavalry in Fengsheng Ah in Anzhou City, and the two battalions of bandit soldiers of Wei Rugui to help, it is simply a blind man's effort to order wax in vain; Except for Fengsheng, who can make Wei Rugui move them? ”
Mao Chao was in the Yamen of the Governor of Zhili, and he had been a 'curtain general' for Li Hongzhang for five or six years.
"And what good can they be? When eating meat, drinking and playing with women, the breasts of each cow are beaten, and when they are used, they all become a bad seed of clear water; On this rainy day, even if Fengsheng and Wei Rugui came in person, they might not be able to move them. ”
"Isn't there still a battalion of the Yi Army of Ma Yukun in Beisongli, and a battalion of Zuo Precious in Yanye Station?"
He Changying looked in the direction of Anzhou and said: "Wei Rugui's Sheng army's combat strength is not bad, but it has always been arrogant, and its behavior is equivalent to bandits; Fengsheng's duck egg soldiers are just a bunch of waste who eat and wait for death, and I didn't expect them in the first place. ”
"Then how do we cross the river in Anzhou? There are more than a dozen decent fishing boats in the Daqing River, but they are all moored in Anzhouyi on the opposite side. ”
Mao Chao didn't understand.
"When I went to Anzhouyi, Fengsheng A's Ji army and Wei Rugui's Sheng army did not assist in crossing the river, and I can slowly fight a lawsuit with them in the future; Zhao Ao has already asked the guide, the riverbed of Anzhouyi is the broadest, usually the middle of the riverbed will be exposed to form two small streams in the north and south, as long as you can use a small boat to cross these two recesses with a depth of thirty or forty meters, it is not a problem to cross the river. ”
"Oh, it turns out that the battalion commander is putting a trap on Wei Rugui and Fengsheng in advance!"
Mao Chao then understood.
"I'm not right, naturally my whole body is full of loopholes, and I still need to put on a cover?"
He Changying glared at Mao Chao, who couldn't speak, and looked at the suffocating little buttocks under Xu Rusong's loose army pants in front of him, his heart trembled, and he felt really nauseous in his stomach, so he quickly avoided his gaze.
At this time, the light rain overhead has turned into a continuous drizzle, and the clouds in the southern sky *** reveal a ray of golden sunlight.
The sky finally cleared.
Seoul, the 5th Oriental Division is stationed.
Nozu Michikani stood in front of a map of the eight provinces of North Korea hanging on the wall, pondering.
The map shows three blood-red arrows, representing the Wonsan Detachment of the 3rd Division that landed on Wonsan in the Sea of Japan, the 9th Mixed Brigade from Seoul, and the Soning Detachment led by Naowen Tatsumi, the march route of the 3rd Route Army, and the current location.
The Wonsan Detachment of the 3rd Division, led by Commander Masadasa Sato of the 18th Infantry Wing, included the 18th Infantry Wing, the 1st Squadron of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade, the 1st Brigade of the 3rd Artillery Wing, and the 3rd Engineer Brigade, with a total of more than 4,500 troops.
After landing at Wonsan on 26 August, the Wonsan detachment began to march in batches, and just after sending a telegram, it had already entered Yangdeokfu, 150 miles east of Pyongyang, without bloodshed, and no trace of the Qing army was found along the way.
Nozu Michikan gave an order to the Wonsan detachment, asking the Wonsan detachment to move towards Pyongyang immediately after repairing, and that it must rush to the town of Sunan, 50 miles north of Pyongyang, by the 15th, cut off the northward escape route of the Pyongyang Qing army, and coordinate the attack on Pyongyang from the back.
Oshima Yoshimasa's 9th Mixed Brigade included the 11th and 21st Infantry Wings, the 1st Squadron of the 5th Cavalry Brigade, the 3rd Battalion of the 5th Artillery Wing, the 1st Squadron of the 5th Engineer Brigade, as well as the Sanitary Corps and the Field Hospital, totaling more than 3,600 people.
It had already departed from Seoul on August 20 and arrived at Kaesong on the 24th, and then the headquarters of the Ichibu Guards set out as an advance team, and the brigade headquarters went to Jinju on the 28th and to Pyongsan on the 29th, and is now heading along the official road towards Seoheung.
The road was still unimpeded, and the officials and troops of North Korea honestly bowed their heads and ears, and no trace of the Qing army was found along the way.
The final order issued by Nozu Michikan to Oshima Yoshimasa yesterday was to arrive in Huangzhou County as soon as possible, and if there were Qing troops blocking the city along the road, all of them would be uprooted.
Be sure to arrive at the south bank of the Taedong River in Pyongyang before the 15th, attract the Qing army with a frontal pinch, and facilitate other troops to encircle and attack from Pyongyang's left and right flanks and behind.
