"Salute!"

With the shouting of a military commander, all the anti-Japanese officers and soldiers saluted Ding Ruchang and Liu Buchan in unison.

Liu Buyun had been on a Western ship for a few years, but Ding Ruchang was so confused by this formation that he almost fell to the ground.

Of course, as a 59-year-old man, it is understandable that he really sat on the ground after a day and a night on a steamer.

"Except for two soldiers who can go ashore, the rest of the soldiers and officers are not allowed to go ashore."

Chen Shijie suddenly stood up, and when he spoke, Ding Ruchang, who had just shown a smile, and Liu Buyun stopped smiling.

And the officers and soldiers on the Dingyuan ship, who were happily preparing to get off the ship, were even more angry, staring at Chen Shijie with expressionless faces.

"According to the Navy's regulations, not to mention that this is wartime, it is an ordinary peacetime, and the officers and men on the ship are not allowed to leave the ship without reason, let alone stay overnight? Hehe, I'm in the army, I don't think you are more familiar with the regulations, since Lang Weili left, the military discipline of the navy is really ——, tsk, no wonder in Dadonggou, hehe. ”

With Chen Shijie's words, the Beiyang Navy standing next to the Dingyuan ship were all blood-red and iron-blue.

As the saying goes, you don't slap people in the face, and Chen Shijie's slap can slap all the naval officers and men on the Dingyuan ship, including Ding Ruchang, very lightly.

"This guy is really ruthless? He also said that it should not be too dark, this is about to blacken the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division to death! ”

Shen Zhaoao smashed his mouth when he heard this, and let Chen Shijie, a stunned young man, stop it, things can usually be done, but people are estimated to be offended to death.

"This little brother is right, we won't go ashore, let's all go back to the boat!"

Ding Ruchang was blushing and ashamed and angry at this time, thinking about the insults and curses of the people and the opposition in the past four months, as well as the emperor's reprimands one after another.

I really want to turn around and jump this Westport, and it's been a hundred since then.

After he shouted the order, he arched his hand to the row of anti-Japanese army officers who greeted him not far away, and said, "Wait until tomorrow and tomorrow, old man, I will discuss with all the young heroes." ”

At this time, the warships slowly approaching ——, Zhenyuan, Jiyuan, and Jingyuan were all so 'friendly' by the military police at that wharf.

The generals of these Beiyang Naval Divisions were half angry one by one, but they couldn't say a word of rebuttal, they were all like Ding Ruchang and Liu Buyun, and they turned around angrily and returned to the warship.

Of course, there are individual exceptions.

"Bastard, why do you army care about our navy, who gave you rights! This Port Arthur belongs to our sailors, and you are just a bunch of watchdogs, do you really think you are a thing? ”

In a corner of the pier, Wang Ping, the pipe leader of the Beiyang torpedo boat, jumped three feet high and scolded: "Don't pee and take care of your stupidity!" ”

"Take it!"

Following the low order of a military police squad leader, the two military police kicked Wang Ping to the ground, took out the rope sleeve tied in advance at his waist, and tied Wang Ping's hands behind his back.

"Kill, kill, woo-"

As soon as Wang Ping had time to shout, he was firmly gagged by the gendarmes with strips of cloth, leaving only a 'woo' moan, and his body rolling and writhing on the ground.

Wang Ping, a man who is unkind and unrighteous on weekdays, is extremely mean and greedy to his subordinates, so the 10 torpedo boats and the pipe bands on the 2 minelaying boats that gradually docked over are all hiding on the ship and watching coldly.

"This Wang Ping really disgraced my sailor's face, but the anti-Japanese army is not benevolent and righteous, and he turns his face and doesn't recognize people; In that case, what are you inviting us to do? ”

In the light, Ding Ruchang stood on the side of the Dingyuan ship, looking at Wang Ping's ugly appearance lying on the cement floor of the dock from afar, and he was angry: "Their anti-Japanese army has repeatedly invited us to come over, but the result is that it is a dismount, what does this mean?" Let us come here, the sailor's cannon can help them defend Lushun, I really think I'm a fool! ”

It wasn't for the life and death of the sailor, Ding Ruchang really wanted to immediately order the ship group to anchor and leave this embarrassing and angry place.

On the face of Liu Buyun, who was standing straight, there was no trace of anger, only a blush that gradually faded away.

"Junmen, I finally understand now why the anti-Japanese army was able to win all the way;"

The cold night breeze blew across Liu Buyun's face, but it made his mind extremely clear and keen: "It's because they don't recognize people because of their faces." ”

"Oh, how do you solve it?"

Ding Ruchang couldn't help but be aroused by Liu Buyun's words.

"Just like since Luang Weili left, why has our military discipline plummeted? It is because Lang Weili is a serious and rigid person, meticulous and rigid in military examples, and does not pay attention to human feelings at all; To be honest, I hate him, and I guess we can't find a few people who like him in our sailors, but there are only wins and defeats in wars, and no one cares who you like or not. ”

Liu Buyun had a deep remorse on his face: "Our Daqing Dynasty is to talk about face in everything, talk about human feelings everywhere, talk about relationships, as long as everything is weighty enough, it has huge elasticity, but black or white, it is unreasonable; It's good to look at it like this, and it's invincible in China, but it's not good for those countries that are strict in foreign countries. ”

"The reason why the anti-Japanese army was able to win the Japanese army was that they were reasonable; Not letting us land is very impersonal at first glance, but this is indeed the rules and principles of the navy that they talked to us. ”

A smile appeared on the corner of Liu Buyun's mouth: "Today's anti-Japanese army has taught us a lesson, and it is also a wake-up call; I was suddenly confident that they would be able to hold Port Arthur. ”

"In this matter, are we wrong, are they reasonable, and we are unreasonable?"

Although Ding Ruchang's words were ugly, there was also a relieved smile in his voice: "Speaking from the heart, before I came, I was always worried that they would not be able to keep Lushun, but I was angry with them just now, but I forgot about it, and subconsciously seemed to think that it was a matter of course for them to keep Lushun." ”

"This is the magic of reasoning, although it can be annoying at times, but its advantage is that it is clear from right and wrong, simple and direct; And unlike when we talk about human relationships, there is no right or wrong, only whether the background is hard or not, because you never know whether the other party still has cards hidden in the end until the end, so you are living in anxiety until the end. ”

During the conversation between the two, they saw that the gendarmes of the anti-Japanese army thought that Wang Ping was dishonest, smashed him with the butt of a gun, and then dragged him into the darkness like a dead dog.

"It's really ruthless, and it's ruthless!"

Ding Ruchang smashed his mouth when he saw it, and only said after a while: "Go down and negotiate alone, don't kill or cripple people, you have to return it to us tomorrow; And-"

Ding Ruchang said with a smile: "Since it is reasonable, then invite the generals of the anti-Japanese army to come to our ship tomorrow to discuss, let's put everything out clearly, and reason with them." ”
