Lushun, the sun is shining, and the warm wind blows the branches of the trees outside the city like a lady swaying from side to side. Show people their piles of green coats.

Liu Jun finally received a telegram from Klinder, the telegram was simple, the Kaiser officially agreed to give these sixteen ironclad freighters to Liu Jun, and also agreed to help Liu Jun train shipbuilders, but the new warship design must be taken out as soon as possible.

Liu Jun agreed with this point, and after receiving Clinder's telegram, Liu Jun happily came to a courtyard surrounded by green tiles and red pillars surrounded by green pines not far from the northeast of the headquarters. This was originally a landlord's house, before the Battle of Lushun, these people fled to the countryside, but they did not expect to encounter the retreating Qing army, not to mention being robbed, and all of them lost their precious lives.

The vacant house, when forming the Arthur detachment, was used as the naval headquarters.

Liu Jun's intention for today is very simple, that is, to transfer two of the best cargo ships from these sixteen cargo ships to the Beiyang Naval Division, which now lacks training ships.

Originally, the Beiyang Naval Division had two training ships, but these two warships had been sunk by the Japanese army in Wei Naval Port, and the current Beiyang Naval Division could not even take out a training ship except for the combat ships.

The recruits on the two warships, Bu Chan and Shichang, were all brought out by the two warships Hashidate and Hepingyuan as training ships.

Li He knew Liu Jun's intention, and he was immediately grateful, and now he was most worried about this matter.

After thanking them and promising to bring the sailors, Liu Jun and Li He came to the military port.

On the dock, in addition to the warships moored, there were also sixteen freighters. Quietly moored at the surface of the sea.

The current port is no longer as busy as it was a few days ago, and the supplies and ordnance that should have been transported have been transported to Changcheng Town. It's just waiting to be assembled.

After careful selection, Liu Jun and Li He unanimously agreed to take out the two largest freighters to become training ships.

In Liu Jun's eyes, the bigger the better, and Li He thought that these two freighters were particularly similar to the battleship. It's very similar to the original Kangji.

After delivering the two warships, Liu Jun returned to the room, and for the first time, he returned to his father-in-law with the wife of the battleship with a hippie smile. And for the first time, I mentioned a lot of gifts. Wu Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment, and she was sure that this guy definitely had a conspiracy.

Yes, Liu Jun has a conspiracy, he wants to hand over the remaining freighters to his father-in-law and form a large ocean-going company.

He has to deal with war and government affairs, he can't be busy, and his wife is pregnant again, so he has to let his father-in-law resist it first, and when his wife is born, he will hand it over to Wu Xiaoyan and let her take care of it.

As soon as he said his thoughts, the old man and Wu Xiaoyan at the dinner table actually raised their hands in agreement.

After eating, the old man asked the housekeeper to buy some porcelain, tea, and silk, and prepared to go back to Germany to make a fortune with the German soldiers.

Liu Jun was going to accompany his wife at his father-in-law's house today, but he didn't expect that at noon, Zhong Lin actually ran over in a panic and handed over the information in his hand to Liu Jun when he entered the door.

The Japanese army raided the position, and the Qing army lost more than 4,300 people, and our army lost 1,200 people.

Zhang Yi

After taking the telegram, he only glanced at Liu Jun and was about to scold on the spot, but in front of his wife, Liu Jun endured it. The hand that clenched the telegram tightly became a fist.

Showing an indiscernible smile, he told Wu Xiaoyan, who was sitting on the Taishi chair, to close his eyes and recuperate, and after getting permission, Liu Jun showed that nothing happened, and slowly walked out of Wu Xiaoyan's sight.

As soon as you go out. As soon as Liu Jun got on the horse, he turned his head and said with a gloomy face: "When did it happen?" ”

The night before yesterday, a company of Japanese troops suddenly attacked Song Qing's front camp. Half an hour later, the Japanese broke into the position, Zhang Yi immediately led the 1st Brigade to the rescue after receiving the battle, and after a night of fighting, the gap was blocked, but the 1st Brigade lost more than 1,000 people. Zhong Lin briefly stated the situation.

1st Brigade. Liu Jun's heart is dripping blood.

The First Brigade can be said to be single-handedly pulled. It's all Lushun people. He is the regiment commander, he is the first battalion, he is the division commander, he is the first regiment, and after he becomes the army commander, he is the first brigade. This army, the Tuchengzi defensive battle, the Yingkou offensive battle, and the Dalian offensive battle, even if these battles are combined, the number of casualties is not as large as this time.

Taking a deep breath, Liu Jun looked at the sky lightly: "Who did it?" ”

"Shanxian County has the first division of the first army, the second and third wings."

"Okay, I remember." Liu Jun closed his eyes. He swore that this revenge would be avenged.

touched, Liu Jun, who returned to the Lushun headquarters, finally broke out into anger. A teacup that was not very valuable was slammed to the ground by Liu Jun.

He hated the incompetence of the Qing army, and was even more ruthless to the Japanese army, if the Qing army was stronger, the Japanese army would not attack so quickly, and if the Japanese army was quieter, he would not lose so many brothers.

looked at Liu Jun's red face and red ears and thick eyes. Zhong Lin spat out, Zhong Lin obediently stepped aside, he knew that once Liu Jun got angry, the ghost had to retreat three feet to be safe.

Whirring, Liu Jun, who was overly angry, sat down on the chair all of a sudden, closed his eyes, and asked after a while: How is the situation now? ”

According to the message. Now that the Japanese army has blocked Liaoyang, Song Qing has strengthened the front-line troops, day and night, and Zhang Yi also sent two regiments into the front line to assist with the Qing army.

Well, hearing this news, Liu Jun calmed down. As long as the Japanese army is in Liaoyang City, he will not be able to escape.

More than 1,000 failed and died, how could I explain to the people of Lushun. Liu Jun closed his eyes in pain.

No matter what, Lao Tzu must go to Liaoyang, slaughter these two divisions, and avenge them. However, if you want to take revenge, you have to get command and command the Liaoyang army. Only Li Hongzhang can give this right. Thinking of this, Liu Jun stood up, he wanted to ask Li Hongzhang to command the battle of Liaoyang.

Slammed the table violently, and said lightly: "...... power generation for Tianjin"

Before he finished speaking, he saw a telegraph man walk in and hand a telegram to Zhong Lin, who was standing aside.

After a quick glance at the location of the call, Zhong Lin raised his head: "Head, Tianjin Telegraph." ”

Tianjin Telegraph, Liu Jun frowned, looked at Zhong Lin, Liu Jun picked up the teacup angrily, blew the tea lightly, and took a sip, "What did you say?" ”

"Zhongtang telegram, let you leave immediately, go to Liaoyang, replace Song Qing, command all the troops around Liaoyang, and attack the Japanese army."

What, Liu Jun stood up suddenly, he didn't believe that the old man would have a tacit understanding with himself. With a look of disbelief, he snatched the telegram. looked at the side, yes, it was indeed to let himself replace Song Qing.

With a snap, Liu Jun slammed the telegram on the table and roared loudly: "Okay." ”

Picking up the telegram and reading it again, Liu Jun said: "Call back, I can't take Liaoyang, I'll see you." ”

"Yes," Zhong Lin straightened his chest and walked out.

Since he is going to Liaoyang, then the matter of Lushun and the dispatch of wolves have to be handed over to Li He. Thinking of this, Liu Jun stood up. Picking up the military hat, he was going to personally go to Li He and ask him to organize this wolf pack of torpedo boats.

"The office of the Navy Headquarters is a pitch-black desk with two models of warships, and on the bright wall near the window, there are maps of the territory of the Qing Kingdom and the surrounding seas.

At this time, in front of the map, Liu Jun was picking up the command in his hand, and spat at Li He beside him about his torpedo boat wolf pack

"When you encounter a Japanese cargo ship, rob it, when you encounter a large group of Japanese cargo ships, grab it together, and when you encounter a Japanese warship, you can't beat it and run away. If the cargo ship resists and sinks me, if you are good, you will be dragged back. ”

Li He's eyes are now as wide as a cow's egg, this commander of the army is more than 100,000, the largest naval division in the Qing country, he has no sense of civilization at all, just a few words, said a few robberies, looking at that expression, he is simply a heinous bandit and pirate.

"The handsome means that we should be pirates." Li He spoke his mind.

This, Liu Jun's face is black, his own perfect plan is actually based on his evaluation, but, think about it, it does mean piracy.

"This ...... This one. Sort of, but it's not an ordinary pirate, it's a pirate with a strong sense of justice. Liu Jun explained hesitantly. There was no blush on his face at all.

"Marshal and wise, I immediately asked Cai Tinggan to organize a torpedo boat operation."

Seeing Li He's back when he walked out, Liu Jun thought for a moment and shouted loudly: "Tell Lao Cai that there is a lot of grabbing, and Lao Tzu will promote him to be a big official."
