Chapter 396: Opening the Dockyard
Yuan Shikai suddenly showed a cry and smile in his heart, this is such a big thing in Xinjiang. Dashuai is fully handed over to himself, and there is really nothing to start with.
"What are you going to do?" Zhang Yi, who explained the situation, glanced at Yuan Shikai, who was sitting on the chair and pondering.
"After striking General Ili head-on, I'm negotiating with him." Yuan Shikai, who had been thinking for a long time, opened his eyes, stood up, took a deep breath and walked out, he went to the headquarters of the land deed corps, discussed with the commander of the corps, and surrounded and annihilated the main force of General Ili.
Lushun Headquarters, a busy scene. From time to time, a staff officer who has come out of the general staff has taken up orders and gone to the telegraph office to send the latest orders everywhere.
"How is it, did Yuan Shikai do it?" In the headquarters, Wu Hao leaned on the Taishi chair, closed his eyes slightly, looked at Zhong Lin who was sitting on the side, and asked lightly.
"Head, let's do it, Yuan Shikai has mobilized the Thirteenth Army of the Seventh Corps and a division of the Mongolian cavalry to be stationed at the border, ready to enter Xinjiang at any time, and according to the secret report, he has already sent people to Urumqi, if the negotiation fails, the army will approach and force Xinjiang."
Well, it seems that Yuan Shikai does have two brushes, Liu Jun nodded, very satisfied with Yuan Shikai's approach.
"Head, do you think you want to secretly spy on Yuan Shikai?" Zhong Lin took a step forward and asked cautiously.
"Forget it, revoke all monitoring of him, with me, he can't turn the sky upside down." Liu Jun waved and said, signaling that there was no need to monitor Yuan Shikai.
Over the years, since Yuan Shikai was in charge of Outer Mongolia, Wu Hao has always asked Zhong Lin to send people to secretly monitor Yuan Shikai, and if there is any change, he will be killed immediately, but Yuan Shikai has always been honest all these years, and he can't find any reason at all.
With a creak, the door was pushed open, Liu Jun looked up, and Zheng Yiqian picked up a telegram and walked in.
"What's wrong with my wife?" Seeing that Zheng Yiqian's face was a little gloomy, Liu Jun frowned and stood up.
"Just received the order. The Japanese Combined Fleet escorted a division to land in Korea. ”
"What?" Liu Jun took the telegram and looked at it carefully, as it said.
The Combined Fleet suddenly reloaded a division of troops in Sasebo last night and headed in the direction of Korea.
"Paralyzing, the Japanese are not things." After a burst of insults, Liu Jun turned around and came to the map to look twice, then turned his head to Zhong Lin: "Go and order, let Dandong's troops enter Pyongyang immediately and be dispatched by Ding Ruchang, this time, Lao Tzu wants to fight with him, if he does not destroy Japan, Lao Tzu will definitely not withdraw troops." ”
"Okay, head, you'll see. : Zhong Lin smiled, turned around and ran out.
Looking at Zhong Lin's distant Beiyang, Zheng Yiqian turned her head and looked at Liu Jun, who was still standing in front of her: Since Japan has done it so obviously, you see, whether the two battleships can be launched, anyway, a war with Japan is a foregone conclusion, it is better to let them go into the sea for a period of time and be incorporated into the Beiyang Naval Division. ”
"My wife is right." Liu Jun nodded, turned around and put on his hat, he was going to go to the Admiralty in person to talk to Li He about this matter.
Today's Beiyang Naval Division, the flagship is no longer the captured Hashidate in Japan, but the battleship Ningyuan. After arriving at Lushun from Ningyuan and being incorporated into the Beiyang Naval Division. When this battleship went out of the exercise, it never left the port of Arthur and was only quietly moored in the port.
After going out and walking for more than ten minutes, Liu Jun and Zheng Yiqian came to the Admiralty.
The guards of the Admiralty all knew Liu Jun in a black cloak, and after the salute, one of the guards brought Liu Jun and the others into Li He's room.
"Dashuai, why are you here?" Li He, who was in the office, put down the pen in his hand, stood up suddenly, and motioned to the adjutant to make tea.
"How about it, are you writing about going south to Guangzhou to escape the cold?" After getting down, Liu Jun looked at the report on Li He's table and asked with a slight smile. "Yes, Dashuai, now that the weather is getting colder and colder, I plan to let the main force of the Beiyang Naval Division go south, and when the weather is warm, I will return to Lushun." Li He nodded.
"No, you don't have to go south this year." After hearing Li He's words, Liu Jun said something that made Li He confused.
No need, every year in these years, the Beiyang Naval Division will go south, and the marshal has no objection, but this time.
"Dashuai, what is this?" Li He looked at Liu Jun suspiciously.
Zheng Yiqian, who was next to her, smiled slightly and stood up: "Commander, there is going to be a war with Japan, where can you Beiyang Naval Division go south." ”
War? Li He raised his confused eyes and looked at Zheng Yiqian.
How come I don't know about the war with Japan? Moreover, there is no reason for this to go to war.
"Don't think about it, I'm really going to war with Japan, and I'm here today to discuss with you about the launching of the two battleships in Fuzhou and Dalian Shipyards." Liu Jun waved and said, signaling Li He not to be confused about this question.
"Marshal, if you want to launch two battleships, that is a sharp sword for our army to deal with Japan and even deter other countries, is it too abrupt to take it out like this." Li He was not happy, but showed a worried face.
"Don't worry, we closed the two battleships at the beginning, just for Japan, and now Japan is becoming more and more presumptuous, and actually took advantage of Lao Tzu's war against the imperial court to make small moves, this country, if you don't praise him thoroughly, it will always be a threat. So this time, even if I expose our battleship, I will erase Japan and divide him. Liu Jun took the lead. Said lightly.
"My subordinates understand." Li He nodded, since Liu Jun said so, then he didn't have any reason to dissuade him, and he only obeyed.
Dalian Shipyard, the cold wind that rolls up in the sky from time to time rolls up the dead branches and leaves on the ground into the sky, and then like a kite with a broken line, some fall slowly to the sea, and some, with the sea breeze, blow to the mainland, transferred into the city of Dalian.
In the distance, on the mountain, the black muzzle of the Dalian Fort and the rumbling Yellow Dragon Banner quietly guard the second-ranked shipyard in the Far East.
In the Dalian shipyard, there has always been a dock guarded by the Praetorian Guards, and the current Praetorian Guards have long since withdrawn, and some, only a thousand workers, are waving their hammers and all the tools in their hands, and are dismantling the bricks around the dock.
In a barren and inhabited dense forest in the distance, Kawagen Shoichi and his assistant Ono innocent were quietly crawling on the cold ground, shivering and looking at the raised telescope, quietly looking at the dock built by the predecessors in the distance.
"Your Excellency Second Lieutenant. What do you say the Liaodong Army is going to do? Why the sudden demolition of this dock, which had been closed for more than two years. ”
Ono Chunzhen and Kawagen Shoichi belong to the Japanese Ministry of Intelligence, after Japan's intelligence network was pulled out by Liu Jun, Japan can only transfer a group of elite personnel, enter Liaodong again, after nearly a year of hard work, finally restore the intelligence network, but compared with the beginning, the gap is not ordinarily large.
"I don't know, but I guess it's definitely something secret here, otherwise the Liaodong Army wouldn't be so cautious." He Yuan Zhengyi put down the telescope in his hand. Turning his head and whispering.
"Ensign is brilliant." Ono innocent gave a thumbs up.
It's all nonsense, if it's not a secret, it can be sealed, and this kind of compliment can only be done by the Japanese.
Oh, maybe it's because I've seen something terrible, Ono innocently opened his mouth wide and pulled Kawagen Shoichi, in fact, he didn't need Ono innocent to pull, he had already seen it.
The walls that had been demolished were slowly revealing the masts of the warships, which were rising into the sky, at least a hundred meters above the ground.
How big a warship is this, only to have such a tall mast. Heyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Trembling in his hands, he raised his binoculars and looked at Dock No. 1 slowly revealing its veil in horror.
What exactly is this. Kawagen Shoichi's mind showed a puzzled expression.
