"It's a raid battle, how did you do it?"

Nie Shicheng watched Zhang Mingxin open the two bloody cloth bags, poured a table full of frozen ears stacked high, and asked in surprise: "Only thirty people have been lost!" ”

"Nie Junmen," Zhang Mingxin stood proudly and said with a rainbow of momentum, "Wai Yi——, in the eyes of my Gan Juner, Tugouer!" ”

"The Broadsword battalion hid in the bushes on both sides of the valley in advance, sprinkled with snow powder to cover their tracks, and the cavalry hid in the nearby mountains and forests, and when the Broadsword battalion attacked, they pursued the router."

The cavalry battalion officer saw that Nie Shicheng was still looking at Zhang Mingxin, waiting for his answer, so he opened his mouth to explain.

"How can you be sure that the Japanese will take that route?"

Nie Shicheng listened to Yin Wenxin's words, and couldn't help but glance at that big sword battalion.

can squat in the snow for so long without moving, and in the Luyu defense army before him, there are not many such men.

However, what was even more surprising to him was that which military division was so clever that he could determine the route of the Japanese army in advance and ambush it.

If it is a large group of military horses, it is good to guess, a large number of baggage, artillery, must take a wide and smooth road, and for the penetration of such a small force, the march route is extremely arbitrary and uncertain.

"It was Zhao Dabang who said it; The gambling curse said that the Japanese soldiers would definitely go from there, or else they would chop off his whip and give it to his brothers as a mule whip to drink. ”

"Haha, Zhao Dabang, just your toothpick meat, it's barely okay to boil thin soup."

A room of generals looked at the tall Zhao Da stick mallet, laughing and ridiculing.

"Lao Tzu just looked at the place where it was very twisted, and he thought that the Japanese would go from there, and if they didn't leave,—— they would all be trained soldiers;"

Seeing Nie Shicheng, a big official, looking at him, Zhao Dabang, who had the title of Zhengwupin garrison, said with a big grin: "I think whoever dares to ask for Lao Tzu's whip must urinate on his face with hot water!" ”

Nie Shicheng glanced deeply at Zhao Dabang and Yin Wenxin, these two low-level generals he remembered firmly.

"Dong Junmen, today's victory is really gratifying."

Nie Shicheng congratulated Dong Fuxiang.

"Tongxi, Tongxi, Admiral Nie, as the president, also has merit."

Dong Fuxiang was full of spring breeze, and thought proudly in his heart, now you know the sharpness of our northwest man.

"This great victory, I think it will change the mind of the imperial court, and the fighting style of these two battalion brothers has given me a revelation, our Gan army's defense line can actually be changed."

Speaking of this, Nie Shicheng couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, Gan Jun's battle was indeed both wise and brave, but blessings and misfortunes depended on each other, and the emperor was unstable The emperor estimated that when he saw Dong Fuxiang's victory, seven or eight times out of ten might change his mind again.

As a major military general of the imperial court and a direct commander, Nie Shicheng couldn't help but start to follow the path of Li Hongzhang's pathetic 'pasteur'.

Listening to Nie Shicheng's words, Dong Fuxiang was very unhappy in his heart, and said in a hard tone: "Oh, what is the change? ”

Nie Shicheng looked at Dong Fuxiang and said: "Our Ganjun men are tough and hardworking, but the Japanese artillery is sharp, so it is not appropriate to divide troops to resist; A certain thought that the troops were divided into pieces and adopted guerrilla warfare, seventeen infantry battalions and three cavalry battalions from Jizhou to Tongzhou, harassing and attacking all the way, and concentrating when they encountered a small group of lonely——"

"Nie Junmen is too worried, a certain Gan army is not your Beiyang; As soon as my line of defense is firmly established, I dare to say that ghosts and gods are not entering, and there are three battalions of cavalry and battalions to chase and escape, it must be like an iron wall! ”

A room full of Gan army generals had already listened impatiently, and Dong Fuxiang couldn't help but rudely interrupt Nie Shicheng's words:

"Nie Junmen always said that the Japanese cannon is sharp, and the 6 fast cannons in a certain hand are the latest style of foreigners, like I won the earthen fort in the northwest, and the two cannons can smash the soil buns into ruins, and I can still be afraid of the rotten cannons of the Japanese?"

Nie Shicheng lamented in his heart and was silent.

In the afternoon of the same day, Dong Fuxiang's telegram was sent to Tongzhou, and Weng Tongyi, Li Hongzao, Sun Minwen, Xu Yongyi, Gangyi, Rong Lu, and Changlin, who supervised the Military Affairs Department, were all stunned.

Before, they only knew that the Lushun Army that was born in the Beiyang Department was powerful, and with the Lushun Fortress, it could draw one-to-one with the Second Army of the Japanese army Dashanyan, where did they expect that this Gan Army from the northwest was more courageous.

"Thirty to two hundred, so Dong Fuxiang's 'one shot kills 10,000, and all the Japanese soldiers die after two or three shots' in the morning, it doesn't seem to be a big deal?"

Weng Tongyi looked at Rong Lu excitedly, in the opposition in the morning, the leader of the Beijing garrison, the commander of the five battalions of the Nine Gate Infantry Army, Rong Lu, the happiest of the rear party.

In the face of the facts, Rong Lu was silent.

"Prepare the carriage immediately, I will go to report the victory to the emperor!"

Seeing that Rong Lu, Cixi's loyal dog, was speechless by himself, Weng Tonggong was very proud in his heart, and hurriedly shouted for his subordinates to hurry up and prepare the car.

Jinmen, Dagu Water Division Camp Office.

Wang Wenshao, deputy minister of the Beiyang Office of the Qing Dynasty, Bao Shide, consul general of the British Empire, Lieutenant General Hei Mu Weizhen of the Oriental Army, Sheng Huaixuan of the Customs Department, Wang Wenjin, the left attendant of the Military Department, and Luo Fenglu, the Taoist of the Naval Division's Battalion Office, had a brief and boring conversation like boiled water.

As for the arrangements of Lushun, the facilities of Weihaiwei, the ships, and the affairs of the Qing army officials, Kuroki Weizhen did not know anything, saying that all these matters belonged to Count Oyamaiwa, Prince Matsumiya Akihito, and the Hiroshima base camp.

Kuroki Weizhen just emphasized one thing repeatedly, and asked to set off for Tongzhou immediately.

For Heimu Weizhen's request, Wang Wenshao is naturally very willing to provide the greatest convenience.

Immediately, followed by more than 20 cavalry sent by the customs road, led by the staff generals Zeng Chuanzhi and Zha Chunhua, Heimu Weizhen and his party left the camp office of the Dagu Water Division and went west.

And Bao Shide, Alinge, accompanied by Wang Wenjin, the left attendant of the military department, and Li Minchen of Jinmen Dao, followed in a carriage.

All the officials of the Qing Dynasty, no matter how angry, weeping, humiliated, unwilling, endorsing poetry and words, looking up to the sky and sighing, but deep down, the huge stone fell safely.

This dawn of peace seems to have risen and is in sight.

At this time, 800 miles east of Jinmen, across the sea of the vast turquoise Bohai Bay, a group of Qing British generals were looking to the east on the defense line of the camp of the Lushun Army of the Anti-Japanese Army.

"Your Excellency, this line of defense of yours is so strong in my eyes—"

Vice Admiral Philmantle, commander of the British Far East Fleet, looked at the mud walls in front of him, which were wet and dripping from the sun, and copied a fairly intelligible Chinese and said: "Far inferior to those forts at Arthur Pass; If the Japanese attacked Lushun, attacking from land would be their only option. ”

"Didn't you send a telegram saying that we want to talk about peace, so let's not act rashly, and what kind of bird are you going to shoot?"

Zhao Zhihong has seen Ding Ruchang, the father of the township party, in the past few days, as if he had found an organization, and he followed Ding Ruchang's ass every day, and when he heard Philimant's words, his body was shocked.

"I don't have any impression of your Commander He, but through the observation of the past two days, I feel that all of you have a kind of blind worship, thinking that even if the first army of Youpeng in Shan County breaks through, your commander will still be safe and sound; And with heavy troops. ”

Philimantle said with a bewildered expression: "If this is true, then this war should not really be over; Unfortunately, however, I believe that even if a miracle occurs, your commander will not be able to reverse the general trend of the Qing-Japanese war. ”
