Maybe Inoue Xin was right, Ito Hirobumi, who lowered his head and pondered for a few moments, opened his eyes, and saw that Inoue Xin was still standing there, Ito Hirobumi waved his hand weakly, signaling him to go down first, after all, this matter is not so easy to give orders.

Lushun, war room, since last night, Liu Jun has been staying in the war room, quietly looking at Lhasa, Tibet.

The Lhasa intelligence station received news yesterday afternoon that Zhao Erfeng's Qing army had exchanged fire with the Tibetan army on the outskirts of Lhasa. This was obviously telling Liu Jun that the time had come for a decisive battle with the Tibetan army, so he sat in front of the map all night, watching Zhao Erfeng's deployment in a daze.

Overall, Zhao Erfeng divided his army into three directions, attacking from the southeast and southwest, Zhao Erfeng was also worried that **** would flee to India, otherwise, he would definitely not let the army return to the southwest. After all, the southwest direction is the direction that **** must take once he escapes India.

"You've been here all night, so go back and get some rest." Zheng Yiqian, who was standing on the side, said softly after getting a cup of tea for Liu Jun.

Seeing that it was Zheng Yiqian, Liu Jun said with a slight smile: "The battle of Lhasa is imminent, and I can't sleep." ”

What can be done if you can't sleep, this battle, it's not your soldiers fighting, but the imperial court, you are worrying, it's not that it doesn't have any effect, thinking of this, Zheng Yiqian was worried that Liu Jun would be exhausted, so she stepped forward and pulled down the blocking part on the side of the map.

"Okay, don't worry about it, even if you see through the map, Zhao Erfeng can't see it, you better go and rest quietly, and when you fall asleep, maybe the good news in front will be delivered."

This sounds like this, smiling slightly, Liu Jun nodded, don't say it, listening to Zheng Yiqian say it so far away, I really want to take a break.

After looking at Zheng Yiqian, Liu Jun stood up from the chair and said, "Then I'm sleeping, tell me immediately if there is any situation." ”

Hey, I was born to worry about my life, watching Liu Jun staggering towards the bed inside, Zheng Yiqian shook her head helplessly and began to sort out the documents.

Pyongyang City. The weather is starting to get hotter and hotter. The 1st Corps, stationed in Pyongyang, has changed into a new summer combat uniform.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the people who were in Pyongyang quickly dispersed to both sides. They knew that this must have been a message from the troops who were fighting with the Japanese army in front.

Half a minute later, from the corner of the street, the people saw more than a dozen soldiers wearing Liaodong military uniforms, steel helmets on their heads, and rifles on their backs rushing past and heading towards the corps headquarters.

In the headquarters, Ding Ruchang, who was wearing short sleeves and carrying three gold stars on his collar badge, stood quietly in front of the huge map. Keep sketching on it with the pen in your hand.

"Commander, front-line emergency." The chief of staff walked up to Ding Ruchang in a few steps and quickly handed a piece of information in his hand to Ding Ruchang.

Urgent information, Ding Ruchang frowned, took it and looked at it, then raised his head and asked, "The news is reliable." ”

"Reliable, this is a message from the inner eyeline of Seoul."

"Quick, immediately send a telegram to Lushun and report the news here. : After bowing his head and thinking twice, Ding Ruchang handed the telegram to the chief of staff. Let him immediately inform Lushun of this news, so that Lushun can decide whether to immediately attack the Japanese army in southern Korea.

Outside the "head" Lushun command department, Zhong Lin, who had just entered the compound, tore open his throat and began to shout.

Zheng Yiqian, who was drinking tea inside, immediately frowned when she heard this voice, and suddenly got up from her chair and rushed out of the door: "You will die if you are light?" ”

Ah, Zhong Lin looked at Zheng Yiqian suspiciously, he didn't know what kind of nerve Zheng Yiqian was experiencing.

Hey, looking at Zhong Lin's innocent expression, Zheng Yiqian shook her head slightly and said, "You just fell asleep for less than three hours. ”

It turned out that this was the case, Zhong Lin nodded, but as soon as he looked at the information in his hand, he immediately said: "Sister-in-law, the situation is urgent, you better get up quickly." ”

What kind of thing is so urgent, and he doesn't even give time to sleep, Zheng Yiqian frowned. However, she knew that Zhong Lin would never say such a thing without an emergency, so she lowered her head and thought for a while, Zheng Yiqian asked, "What is so urgent?" ”

"Sister-in-law, an urgent telegram has been sent from the Japanese station of my intelligence bureau, and the Japanese troops in Korea are estimated to run."

"You wait, I'll call right away." As soon as she heard this, Zheng Yiqian hurriedly ran to the headquarters.

Headquarters, Liu Jun's study, Liu Jun, who still hadn't woken up yet, was dragged out of the bed by Zheng Yiqian, and Liu Jun, who was in a daze, saw that it was Zheng Yiqian and immediately asked, "Is there news from Tibet?" ”

"No, but Zhong Lin sent urgent information that the Japanese troops in Korea may retreat."

With a grunt, a word, Liu Jun, who was confused, suddenly sobered up, and after putting on his shoes in a few moments, Liu Jun walked out of the door and came to the hall.

As soon as he arrived in the hall, he saw Zhong Lin picking up a telegram and walking back and forth in the hall.

"Zhong Lin, when did it happen?" Liu Jun, who hadn't sat down yet, asked directly.

"Head, I also just received the telegram, regardless of the estimation that the Japanese are plotting this matter, it has not been a day or two." After Zhong Lin finished speaking, he quickly handed the telegram in his hand to Liu Jun.

Liu Jun, who took the telegram, read the contents of it for a few moments, and then put the telegram in his hand on the table.

Strangely, since it was the Japanese who wanted to retreat, Ding Ruchang in Pyongyang should have been aware of it, but now, it seems that Pyongyang has not transmitted any telegrams at all. Thinking of this, Liu Jun raised his head and looked at Zhong Lin: "Is there a telegram from Pyongyang?" ”

Zhong Lin is not a fool, as soon as he turned his head, he understood what Liu Jun meant, and shook his head slightly: "No head, I haven't received any telegrams from Pyongyang at present."

There is no telegram from Pyongyang, so this can only mean two problems, first, that is, the Japanese army is releasing ecstasy, and second, that Japan has not yet launched an operation, but no matter which one, it is not a good thing for Liu Jun.

"Head, do you want to ask Ding Ruchang." Zhong Lin thought for a moment and stepped forward and asked.

Not for the time being, if there is news, Liu Jun knows, Ding Ruchang will definitely notify him as soon as possible.

Before he could reply, a telegraph office officer walked in outside the door, and as soon as the man walked in front of Zhong Lin, he handed a telegram to Zhong Lin and turned around and walked out.

"Head, Ding Ruchang telegram." After reading the telegram a few times, Zhong Lin said excitedly.
