Chapter 110: Dividing the troops to land

As for He Changying, who may become his second brother-in-law, Li Jingfang is still quite satisfied so far. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Wen Neng writes books, Wu Neng beats foreigners with one enemy and four enemies, and in the face of being squeezed into a dead corner by splashing skin with language, he can break the rules of the cage and dare to draw a knife to kill.

And he is a lively person, knows how to be flexible and not dull, and saved his life from Wu Yuren's knife and axe, he knows how to repay the favor and try his best to drag himself to North Korea to gain honor.

Unlike Zhang Peilun's white-eyed wolf who can't be fed, he doesn't seek to be motivated, he hides in the boudoir every day with his eldest sister, a woman sticks together and doesn't say anything, and he still says strange things in front of his father to prevent me from going to North Korea.

Otherwise, during the Battle of Ashan, I would have commanded Admiral Ye and General Nie to drive those Oriental soldiers into the sea to feed the fish in one fell swoop!

Thinking that Zhang Peilun prevented the immortal feat that he could have made, Li Jingfang was angry in his heart, and at the same time, he was even more satisfied with his little fellow He Changying.

In his opinion, He Changying is also a talent, and he is also knowledgeable and knowledgeable in his actions, and he is the township party of Feixi, no matter how Li Jingfang looks at it, he feels that he is a hundred times stronger than Zhang Peilun's old sour Confucian.

Now Li Jingfang can see that in his father's future arrangement, the civil and military collocation of the next generation of Beiyang is Sheng Huaixuan, and as for Wu, his father was very optimistic about Yuan Shikai's prodigal son.

However, what Yuan Shikai did this time disappointed his father too much.

First, he pretended to be sick and left North Korea, and after returning to China, his father asked him to go to North Korea to make contact, but not only did he delay repeatedly, but now he has not even opened the door of the governor's yamen.

In Li Jingfang's opinion, he Yuan Shikai is really a rammer and a coward!

Now that Pyongyang is under the management of Ye Zhichao, it is simply as safe as Mount Tai, such a good errand that is both stable and saves face, he Yuan Shikai actually shirks it, how can there be such a fool in this world?

Of course, there are still dangers, but people are sitting in the sedan chair walking, the sedan girder may be broken, if you want to make a career, how can you not dare to take any risk!

The key is the contrast between what is gained and what is lost.

So for He Changying's initiative to ask to go to North Korea this time, his father was very appreciative.

Looking at his father's meaning, he intends to train him as the successor of Ye Zhichao in the future.

Li Jingfang has already thought about it, as long as He Changying is sensible, he will cooperate and shout twice in Pyongyang, and when he commands the Sixth Route Army to win a big victory and drive away the Oriental soldiers, he will also share a great credit to his future second brother-in-law.

Then let him be like Yuan Shikai in the past, first train in North Korea for a few years, and then transfer back to China, which is his right-hand man.

Therefore, although Li Jingfang was also angry about He Changying's sudden and forcible change of landing location this time, he still had to give some face to this second brother-in-law whose future was almost ironclad, and let him come over to discuss and talk.

Otherwise, if you change someone, don't say that you He Changying is just a small co-organizer of the garrison from the fifth grade, and he is the chief soldier of the second grade of the imperial court, and he Li Jingfang dares not to give face, and if he doesn't agree with each other, he will scold the past.

Li Jingfang was thinking far away, and his subordinate Cheng Guande told him that He Changying had come, and Li Jingfang hurriedly asked Cheng Guande to invite people in.

Seeing He Changying, Wu Weiyang, Lin Taizeng, Shen Zhaoao, and Lin Yunyu walking into the cabin, a room full of people was crowded.

Li Jingfang asked with a smile: "An Zhi, how did you think that you would suddenly change your course, from the mouth of the Yalu River to Pyongyang, it will take half a month to hurry up, it will be too delayed." ”

Hearing the dissatisfaction in Li Jingfang's words, He Changying scattered a circle of cigarettes, but Wu Weiyang and Lin Taizeng both shook their hands and refused, and only Li Jingfang took it.

"The combined fleet of the East Ocean is in ambush at the mouth of the Datong River at this time, not to mention the warships of the naval division, the thin-armored iron-clad slow ships such as 'Jiang Yu' and 'Jiang Shun', which can easily sink with a few shells."

Li Changying said in an affirmative tone: "Going is equivalent to breaking through the ghost gate, and you will definitely die for life!" ”

Lin Tai once looked at He Shoubei, who was simply his life-saving benefactor, with admiration, and the gratitude in his heart suddenly became like a surging river, and he was out of control.

I'm really lucky!

At the moment of life and death, I finally met someone who understood.

Li Jingfang was speechless for a while, and asked in surprise: "Anzhi, why are you so sure?" ”

"This thing is shallots mixed with tofu, which is clear; Now the combined fleet of the East Ocean is not assembling in Asan, but in Incheon, trying to fight a decisive battle with our naval division; This time, the sailors went to Pyongyang with great momentum, how could they not know about the day when they were lurking? It is estimated that the fleet will depart here, and the news will be obtained from Seoul. ”

"Anzhi, you are too worried, since the imperial court declared war with Toyo, the Beiyang Telegraph Bureau has strictly forbidden anyone to send telegrams to Seoul and Toyo."

Li Jingfang said with a smile: "The fleet only set off last night, there is no telegraph, even if the Oriental spies have wings, it is impossible to send the information over so quickly; When they found out, they didn't know what year or month they had gone. ”

He Changying smiled and shook his head, these old-fashioned bureaucrats, even if they went abroad and became Oriental ministers for a few years, their thoughts still stayed in the ancient era of slash-and-burn farming.

"Quite simply, the telegram could not be sent to Seoul and Nagasaki, but it could be sent to Shanghai and Canton, and then forwarded to the Orient; If it doesn't work, it will be sent directly to Surabaya, Singapore, Manila, and even the United Kingdom, France, and then transmitted to the East, who can stop these? ”

He Changying said coldly: "In China, the heroes who sacrificed their lives for the country and the traitors who forgot their ancestors have always coexisted, and they use code language to send reports, who can see it?" ”

Not to mention Li Jingfang, this kind of thinking is Wu Weiyang, Lin Taizeng, Shen Zhaoao, and Lin Yunyu are also refreshing, and they feel that their horizons are suddenly broadened.

"That-,"

Li Jingfang asked with a disgraced face: "There is no other expedient solution?" ”

Just thinking about riding a horse in the summer and walking four hundred miles of mountains, forests and wilderness roads to eat and sleep, Li Jingfang's mouth became bitter.

"Yes."

He Changying motioned to his staff officer, Shen Zhaoao, to take out the map.

Shen Zhaoao spread the map on the table, and in the dim light, a room of people surrounded him.

"You see, if a warship anchors here, and then the soldiers are transferred to the shore in small boats;"

He Changying pointed to the coastline closest to Pyongyang City in the Yellow Sea and said: "This place is more than 100 miles away from the mouth of the Datong River, and it is only 50 or 60 miles away from Pyongyang City. is an ideal landing spot. ”

"Okay, let's land here!"

Li Jingfang nodded happily when he heard this, he could achieve his goal without taking risks, although it was a little troublesome, Li Jingfang still agreed.

He didn't notice what Lin Tai had been surprised by, and he was completely looking at the layman's idiotic eyes.

"This is only suitable for small light landings of soldiers, mules and horses, guns, and the six Grimm cannons, which can only land in Anton; Zhenyuan', the 'Jiyuan' ship went there to send the consul general and your guards ashore, and the rest of the mixed fleet all went to Anton. ”

He Changying said resolutely.
