Chapter 454: Leave Some, Change Some

"Forward forward, forward, our team to the sun, feet on the land of the motherland, carrying the hope of rising, we are an invincible force. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.infoβ€”β€”"

He Changying, Huang Bojie, Liu Mingyang, Li Fengrui, Luo Minglei, a group of officers rode on horses, with a long procession around them, and hundreds of carriages pulling bullets and grain.

Passing by the Ninghe camp of the Luyu Defense Army, the army marched in the direction of Tangshan.

Five hundred new troops, thirty veterans who returned from wounds, eleven backbone officers of most of the reconnaissance company brought back from southern Liaoning, and 1,000 sheng troops formed this army that went north to the pass.

This army will combine with the 400 recruits who have been trained there at Shanhaiguan to form an infantry regiment to block the first army of Youpeng in Shanxian County.

Just outside the Ninghe camp, He Changying and Xu Bangdao, Lian Shun, parted ways.

The two of them will recruit 6 battalions of 3,000 new troops in this empty camp area, and then rush to the Liaoyang defense line, which is estimated to never be able to go.

Xu Bangdao and Lian Shun were completely two poor and white commanders at this time, holding a holy decree to wipe their buttocks in their hands, and a large battalion with only twenty or thirty soldiers left behind.

Guns and ammunition, military uniforms and quilts, food and silver, these things are either still on the way to be transported, or they have not yet been made.

Especially the silver two, Weng Tongyi's minister's treasury has long been at the bottom, although Liu Kunyi has the cornucopia of customs road, but he is directly ineffective against Xu Bangdao and Lian Shun.

The angry Xu Bangdao, Lian Shun, looked for He Changying to drink stuffy wine, and scolded his mother after getting drunk.

He Changying was still because of the arms that had been transported to Dalian Bay, and Li Hongzhang gave a large amount of 1 million taels of silver as military salaries, as well as various expenses.

But after thinking about it, He Changying couldn't get a tael of silver even if he came from Liu Kunyi.

He Changying transferred two battalion officers, twenty sentry officers, and thirty soldiers of the Sheng army to Xu Bangdao and Lian Shun.

In this way, with the twenty or thirty left-behind soldiers in the Ninghe Barracks, one of the two can be divided into thirty or forty people, and the shelf can be barely tied up.

When you go out to recruit soldiers, at least you don't look shabby.

is so grateful that the two of them can be He Changying's father regardless of their age, holding He Changying's hand, and shouting 'good brother' vigorously.

On the night of November 1 in the Western calendar, the northbound troops stepped on the muddy post road, along the Jintang Canal, and came to Nansunzhuang on the outskirts of Tangshan, where they set up a temporary camp.

Soon, a group of fast horses from the Dagu Military Station made He Changying's face change.

"The Japanese ship group entered the Bohai Bay today, and there are a large number of merchant ships and cargo ships in it, and it is expected that they should go to Yingkou."

He Changying handed over the urgent report in his hand to Major Liu Mingyang, and said with a hint of anger in his voice: "Liu Kunyi ordered Sheng Huaixuan to give all the imported high-explosive bombs that were originally destined for the Lushun Military Port to Weihaiwei and Dagu Fort on the grounds that they could not enter Lushun by sea. ”

"What's the matter, so serious?"

At this time, Li Jingfang, who was slowly moving forward in a carriage, rushed to the temporary camp, and the muddy post road along the way, the wheels fell into the mud puddle from time to time, and Li Jingfang, who was shaking, was dizzy and had to stop and rest from time to time.

Cheng Guande, Hong Jiading, these two people saw that Li Hongzhang was losing power, and they all stayed directly in Liu Kunyi's governor's yamen.

Li Jingfang is now a loner again, and when he went out this time, he brought two old servants of the Li family to serve in front of him, which was far less majestic than before with dozens of Goshha.

"You go and explain, it's hard to walk in the cold weather, add a hard dish with meat to the hired coachman for dinner, and allow them to drink some in moderation if they want to drink to keep warm."

He Changying motioned to Liu Mingyang, handed the urgent report to Li Jingfang, and ordered Huang Bojie.

"These warships are really rampant!"

Li Jingfang's face was full of anger: "Aren't they afraid that the sailor will intercept them?" ”

"Does Ding Ruchang have the guts? Now that Zhenyuan is stranded again, pointing to a Dingyuan to go to sea to intercept the Japanese ship group, it is luck to be able to escape back to Weihaiwei. ”

He Changying said coldly: "For Liaoyang, for the water master, I have never had any hope; I was angry that Li Zhongtang and the Military Aircraft Department had agreed to allocate imported high-explosive bombs to the Lushun Battery, but now Liu Kunyi turned back on it for the sake of personal vendetta and disregard for the general righteousness! ”

"Anzhi, you don't have hope for Liaoyang?"

Li Jingfang heard He Changying's words for the first time today, and couldn't help but say with a loss of color: "Then let's go to Liaoyang?" ”

"Not to Liaoyang, but to Shanhaiguan, where we will continue to recruit local mountain people of less than 1,000 people, and expand the team to 3,000; Then, with Shanhaiguan as the logistics base, the team went out of the customs lightly to carry out guerrilla warfare in the snow and mountains and forests, delaying the time for the Japanese army to move south. ”

He Changying looked at the surprised Li Jingfang and said: "Liaoyang, Fengtian, Panjin, and Jinzhou will inevitably fall one after another, and no one can save them." ”

He Changying's words made Li Jingfang speechless for a while, lit a cigarette, and thought for a long time before asking in a hoarse voice: "Anzhi, you planned to do so from the beginning?" ”

"Hmm;"

He Changying nodded slightly and said: "Even if the Japanese army occupies Liaoyang, Mukden, and even Panjin, Jinzhou, plus Phoenix, Xiuyan, and the land occupied by Dashanyan of the Second Army, it is only a small half of Liaoning Province, less than one-tenth of the northeast; Moreover, Liaodong is the most economically backward area of the Qing Dynasty, and the Japanese army's attack on Liaodong is actually an extremely stupid stinky chess! ”

"But Fengtian is the land of the Great Qing Dynasty?"

Li Jingfang listened very incomprehensibly.

"Even if the Japanese army burns down the three eastern provinces, the Qing Dynasty will not be able to hurt a single bone or muscle; Along the Yangtze River in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui and Hubei, along the coast of Guangdong, these are the economic lifeblood of the Qing Dynasty. ”

He Changying saw Li Jingfang's disapproving face, knowing that these theories were difficult to communicate with them, so he stopped the topic.

"What we have to do now is to block Youpeng in Shanxian County at all costs, and deplete the steel, coal, grain, and silver of the East little by little, and let it go bankrupt! Then this war will be won. ”

After dinner, He Changying wrote an order to Xiong Kaiyu at the Dagu Military Station, now importing high-explosive bombs from the West, obviously time is no longer allowed, so if you want to get some, you have to fight Luo Rongguang's Dagu Fort Military Depot.

This is really audacious, but the military depot of the Dagu Fort is just south of the Beiyi Fort, and the civilian houses of the Dagu Military Station have been built next to the wall of the military depot.

As long as you can deal with the two inner ghosts, you will be short of an authentic thing.

In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures must be used!

For this sentence, He Changying has always been convinced.

He Changying stood on the top of a small hill and looked at the dimly lit Tangshan City ten miles away.

After 82 years, a massive earthquake occurred in the city, with a magnitude of 8.2, killing 240,000 people, seriously injuring 160,000 people, and slightly injuring more than 540,000 people.

"Since I'm here,β€”β€”"

He Changying said softly and resolutely: "Then the First Sino-Japanese War, the Eight Kingdoms, the Central Plains War, Qiqi, Nanjing, Tangshan, Wenchuan-; You have to leave some and change something. ”
