"Hey!"

Captain Lin Jiushi quickly got up from the ground and stood straight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Tsuno Michikan said to Lin Jiushi with a cold face: "When you fought Pyongyang, you rushed to the front line and washed away your sins today with blood. ”

"Hey!"

Lin Jiushi replied firmly without hesitation.

"Kimura Shaoza, your department is responsible for collecting grain and soldiers from Zhonghe City; Tell these Koreans that the imperial army is helping them to fight away the Qing army that oppresses them, and those who do not obey are all traitors, and they are all dead! ”

"Hey!"

The captain of the Fifth Cavalry Brigade, Kimura Shigeshosa, replied loudly.

"The order is to the Oshima Yoshima Brigade in the rear, the original battle plan remains unchanged, and our unit will march west to Jiangnan tomorrow, cross the Taedong River to Jiangxi and go north along the river, cross the Pyongyang River, and attack the southwest of Pyongyang; The 9th Brigade will go from Zhonghe to Pyongyang tomorrow, feint to attack the Toulao Island Chuan Bridge and the eastern front of Giethoorn Island, attract the main force of the Qing army, and the headquarters of our division will crush the Qing army to powder under the southwest city! ”

"Hey!"

All the generals of the Fifth Division in the room shouted in unison.

Since Michikan Tsuno learned the news of the annihilation of the 1st Brigade of the 11th Wing the day before yesterday, he has greatly shaken his plan to attack Pyongyang in four directions.

Originally, the plan was changed, and the division headquarters, together with the rest of the 9th Brigade, and the whole army went directly to Pyongyang along Zhonghe to the north, and then made plans after the Soning detachment and the Wonsan detachment arrived in Pyongyang.

And today, seeing that the entire 7,000 Qing troops were actually beaten by half a squadron of imperial troops and fled for thousands of miles, Tsuno Michikan suddenly regained all his confidence.

It was decided to attack Pyongyang before the 3rd Division led by General Aritomo of Yama County arrived at Inchon and completely crushed the Qing army in Pyongyang.

Pyongyang, the provisional governor of the Qing Dynasty.

After the generals had eaten lunch and had their fill, they began to quarrel wave after wave in the lobby of the Admiral's Yamen.

When the quarrel was intense, the angry Zuo Guigui took advantage of Wei Rugui's lack of vigilance, and went up and gave Wei Rugui a fist to the stomach.

Wei Rugui is the master who suffers, and immediately kicked his precious crotch.

Then the two hugged each other, punched and kicked, 'you are paralyzed, you are paralyzed'.

Suddenly, there was chaos in the lobby of the Admiral's Yamen, and those who persuaded, those who pulled the bias, those who stood by and watched, and those who made a fool of themselves were more lively than the theater garden.

"Smack!"

"Enough!"

Ye Zhichao was so angry that his lips trembled, he threw the teapot on the ground fiercely, pointed at the generals and shouted: "It's all burning eyebrows, are you still messing around in the nest?" If you're so foolish again, I'll call Zhongtang, and everyone will pack up their things and just shoot them apart! ”

Zuo Guigui first loosened Wei Rugui's waist, picked up the hat that fell on the ground, and put it on directly without ashes, shouting in a loud voice:

"Ye Junmen, is this a blind coax? Last night, the Japanese were obviously bluffing, and there was a large army of military horses in the sky, and as a result, we had a whole 7,000 people who fled overnight, and Wei Rugui's Sheng army simply stirred up my defense line, I don't settle accounts with him, who do I look for? ”

"You ask me to settle accounts, who do I go to to shout grievances?"

Wei Rugui's clothes were torn off two buttons by Zuo Guigui, revealing his hairy chest inside, and roared angrily:

"Isn't it that Fengsheng'a, a dead ghost, was easily taken into the camp by the Japanese Yi, and the rout soldiers stormed my camp, and shouted in the camp to shake the hearts of the army, can my sons and daughters run?"

Jiang Zikang and Ma Yukun were silent, they saw the collapse of the Sheng army's camp last night, and before the Sheng army fled to Xicheng, they had already resolutely ordered the whole army to retreat.

"Okay, I complain about Feng Sheng, but everyone else is dead, and I can't hide this matter and not report it; What should this telegram say, do you have an idea? ”

"The idea of, to tell you the truth, it's not wrong to die!"

In last night's riot, in addition to Fengsheng'a's Jilin Lianjun Shengzi Battalion, more than half of it was lost, and Wei Rugui's Shengjun also lost 93 people, and it is estimated that there are 19 murderers and few auspicious people, which is the most serious loss among the rest of the Fifth Route Army.

So as soon as he heard Feng Sheng's name, Wei Rugui was angry and furious.

Ye Zhichao nodded and looked at the rest of the generals.

"Tell me the truth."

Zuo Guigui also said angrily.

"Okay, now that this matter is settled, let's talk about Pyongyang's defense;"

Ye Zhichao said with a sad face: "The Japanese have already come in a large group, and they are coming, but the domestic reinforcements have not come for a long time, and this battle is difficult to fight!" ”

"If it's hard, you have to fight!"

Zuo Guigui opened his mouth and rushed to Ye Zhichao: "Is it possible to escape back with his tail between his legs like this?" Even if the court doesn't cut off my head, I myself can be ashamed to death by myself! ”

“――”

Ye Zhichao was choked by Zuo Precious and almost suffocated to death.

"The city of Pyongyang is high and thick, and the Japanese are from afar, we are surrounded by big rivers in the southeast and west, and the northern part is narrow, easy to defend and difficult to attack; Junmen, this Pyongyang city, the Japanese are not so easy to take down. ”

Ma Yukun said eloquently: "Besides, we are in Suzhou, Anzhou, and there are still six or seven thousand military horses, which can be responded to at any time." ”

"Beat his little mother's grandson!"

Wei Rugui slapped the table heavily.

Ye Zhichao was disappointed in his heart, so he had to forcibly lift his spirit and said: "Okay, since everyone says so, then let's try to fight a dozen." ”

After finishing the military affairs at the Admiral's Yamen, He Changying returned to the camp of the Korean reinforcements outside the Changqing Gate with an iron face.

Seeing He Changying coming back, all the officers of the reinforcement army in the camp surrounded him.

"All company platoon commanders, meet immediately."

He Changying said something with a dark face, and walked directly into the big tent.

Shen Zhaoao, Lin Yunyu, Wu Weiyang, and Peng Qianyan were doing tactical deductions on a simple sand table in the tent, and when they saw He Changying leading a large group of officers in, Shen Zhaoao asked with a smile: "How many people have been reduced this time?" ”

"About the loss of a battalion; Last night, the Japanese army in Zhonghe City attacked the camp with absolutely not many troops, and I suspect that there were not even three or four hundred people in half a brigade, otherwise the Japanese army could have attacked all the barracks at the same time, and it would not have caused such a small loss to Ye Zhichao and them. ”

He Changying took out the bamboo tube and hesitated slightly.

"Battalion commander, a cigarette."

Hao Tiansheng looked at the bamboo tube in He Changying's hand and said.

He Changying was helpless, so he handed one to Hao Tiansheng.

"Battalion commander, I'll have one too."

Fang Dahai was also unceremonious.

"Battalion commander, and me!"

Mao Chao also smiled and rubbed over.

――

He Changying sent it down with a bitter face, and after a circle, the smoke in the bamboo tube had bottomed out.

"This defeat is actually a good thing, otherwise we might have to roll up and go back to China tomorrow."

Lin Yunyu saw that He Changying's face was not very good, so he opened his mouth to comfort him.

Wu Weiyang also smiled and said: "I guess now that Tsuno is full of energy, the Japanese commander who destroyed this attack on the camp with one shot has all the thoughts." ”

"No, you're all wrong;"

Shen Zhaoao said with a smile: "The battalion commander is actually distressed about his cigarettes, and he has been smoked by these big smokers. ”

"What are you guys doing?"

Mao Chao puffed out two puffs of white smoke from his nose, and said puzzledly: "The Japanese army has won a big victory, what are they not satisfied with?" ”

"Of course they're not satisfied;"

He Changying said faintly: "It wasn't for last night's attack on the camp that drove the 7,000 Qing troops back to Pyongyang, the 5th Division of the Japanese Army can calmly annihilate the 7,000 Qing troops in Zhonghe City today." ”

The officers in a tent were all silent.
