The situation of the four-nation alliance besieging the first division of the Lu army was already obvious, but because it was found that it was still profitable, Bazin actually slowed down the pace of attacking the Lu army again, focused on the next negotiations, and did not launch a siege on the Lu army before getting enough benefits. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

It was because of this difference in thought that Lu Jun was given a chance to breathe!

Originally, in the face of the joint coercion of a coalition of more than 60,000 people, the first division of the Lu army had fallen into a predicament, after all, the Lu army was only a division, and it had no chance of winning against three or even four times the number of Western troops that were three or even four times its own, and the gap was too big!

There is a solemn atmosphere in the entire first division, even Gao Qi, who has always been conceited, is now extremely heavy in his heart, and the pressure is too great, this is three or even four times his own strength, not to mention himself, even if the eldest brother is here in person, he may not be able to turn the tide.

Damn Spring Rain, why hasn't his second division advanced yet? It's not a joke to let Brother Lao Tzu resist tens of thousands of troops of the Four-Nation Alliance! Even if Lao Tzu has three heads and six arms, it is difficult, after all, these are Western elites, not special bandit Taiping Army!

Gao Qi is anxious, and now Yan Chunyu is also anxious, the first battle of Rongchengwan was not only a heavy loss of the British and Japanese forces, but also a huge loss of the second division, more than half of the casualties of the second brigade, and even the brigade commander Zhang Suimou was seriously injured and martyred.

Yan Chunyu was so angry that he jumped to his feet and scolded his mother, so he could only replenish a large number of newly recruited recruits to the second brigade, and the three brigades were urgently rectified. When Yan Chunyu received Gao Qi's information, he naturally didn't dare to slack off, tens of thousands of people besieged the first division, and he had to confess if he didn't know it, especially the French army, which was extremely strong, it was not a joke!

Yan Chunyu gathered all the main forces of the second division in one breath, but when the troops were assembled, Yan Chunyu also started to worry, it was too far, it seemed to be directly adjacent to Shandong, but his second division was in Weihai, the head of the Jiaodong Peninsula, away from Cangzhou, 1,2300 miles away, even if he marched at full speed, he couldn't get to Hejian Mansion without 20 days! Twenty days? Now the Western coalition army has put on a siege posture towards the first division, and it is possible to start a war at any time, can Lao Gao hold out for twenty days? How can it be?

Yan Chunyu's heart was completely urgent, what the hell, Lao Gao, this waste wood, you kid has nothing to do to run so far to get a ball? Now Lao Tzu is beyond the reach of the whip!

"Spring rain, otherwise, let's take the sea route, insert directly from the sea to the south of Tianjin Wei, and forcibly land, in this way, we can save at least ten days of time......

Gao He said urgently, he was even more anxious than Yan Chunyu, after all, it was his eldest brother who was now under siege by the coalition forces!

"Fart! Second Gao, you kid is pushing the brothers of our second division into the fire pit! ”

Yan Chunyu roared: "Slow to say that we lack enough troop carriers now, even if there are enough troop carriers, now from Shanghai to Tianjin, almost all the sea areas are blocked by the fleets of the three Western countries, we have no fleet, once we are discovered by foreigners, we all have to be smashed by people's naval guns and sink into the Pacific Ocean to feed the sea fish!" ”

Gao E's face turned red, and he muttered, "Then you have to come up with a solution?" Are we just going to die? ”

Yan Chunyu is also so anxious that the six gods have no master, and he has no temper at all, you are strong in battle, and now you are nesting in Weihaiwei, you can't rush up, what use can you do?

Just when Yan Chunyu was in a hurry, the savior came, and Guo Songtao personally rushed to Weihaiwei from Jinan to inspect the situation on the Jiaodong Peninsula.

"Lord Bochen, haha, why did you suddenly arrive in Weihaiwei?"

Yan Chunyu saw Guo Songtao, reluctantly laughed twice, and asked.

Guo Songtao looked at everyone, frowned, and asked, "What's wrong with you, all of you are worried?" What's the problem? ”

When Yan Chunyu heard this, he was depressed, and said helplessly: "Lord Bochen, now Lao Gao's situation in Hejian Mansion is grim, he has opened up quickly, and defeated the French army and the Anglo-Spanish coalition army, and now Bazan is leading the main force to advance south, and it is only a hundred and ten miles away from Hejian Mansion, and Lao Gao's first division is surrounded in the arc, and he may launch an attack at any time, where can he block more than 60,000 people with one division?" I thought about leading the main force to reinforce me, but the distance was too far, 1,200 miles, even if I marched with all my strength, day and night, without more than half a month, I couldn't reach the battlefield......"

"If you can't go by land, then you won't take the waterway?"

Guo Songtao said.

Yan Chunyu was speechless for a while, he had just scolded Gao E, and another one came to give him this idea!

"My Lord Bochen, now the entire sea area of Zhili and Shandong is blocked by the Western fleet, as soon as we go to sea, we will be caught by others, and our entire second division will have to be reimbursed for a naval gun......"

Yan Chunyu said helplessly.

"Yes, Lord Bochen, I just gave Chunyu this idea, and I was scolded by him......"

Gao Yi said in a low voice.

Guo Songtao said in a deep voice: "Our ship transporting troops will naturally be blocked by the Western Fleet, but what if we don't use our ship? We should use the ships of third countries, I don't believe that they have the audacity to attack the ships of third countries at will! ”

Forehead......

Yan Chunyu's expression was stunned, the ships of the third country, this is right, we can still use the ships of the third country!

Now that the commercial port of Jiaodong Bay has been completed, a large number of ships have gathered, if some of them are requisitioned, it is feasible, but who is willing to take this risk, after all, this is to offend Britain and France!

Guo Songtao said with a smile: "We can coordinate with the US Consulate and ask the Americans to help, it's a big deal that we pay a certain amount of money, you must know that at the beginning of the American Civil War, our fleet stayed in the United States to participate in the war, and now it is time for them to return our favors, and we must be sent to Cangzhou safely!" ”

"Not bad!"

Gao He shouted, "That is, the American Civil War, Ding Ruchang even left the fleet and navy in the United States to participate in the war, to assist the federal government, now it's time for the Americans to contribute, they don't need them to participate in the war, just need to send us to Cangzhou safely, the rest of the matter, let's solve it ourselves, the two divisions are in one place, Lao Tzu and the foreigners fight, even if they lose both, they must all be left in China, Lao Tzu will bury them all alive!" ”

Yan Chunyu nodded, and said urgently: "Lord Bochen, this matter can only be handed over to you, be sure to hurry up, I will gather the entire second division and assemble in Weihaiwei, three days, three days, the Americans' merchant ships must arrive in Weihaiwei!" ”
