The fourth floor of the drunken immortal building is the accommodation place for the senior officers who came to Lushun to report on their work, and now, officials from all over Liaodong are performing their duties, and no one has been transferred back to Lushun, so on the empty fourth floor, there is only one Ding Ruchang who is lonely here. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

From the day after receiving the order not to go back, Ding Ruchang looked at the road outside on time every day, hoping to see Zhong Lin's figure, but every time, all he brought to himself on the street was disappointment again and again.

It is estimated that there is no hope today, Ding Ruchang, who was standing in front of the window, was about to turn back, and he saw several people in black military uniforms walking into the Drunken Immortal Tower.

The soldiers in black uniforms, only the people of the Liaodong Guard Regiment will wear them, it is estimated that they are looking for themselves, Ding Ruchang hurriedly buttoned the military hat on his head, he didn't want to stay in this broken place for a moment.

The person who came, Ding Ruchang still knew, was actually Huang Feihong, the deputy head of the guard regiment. Huang Feihong was originally a platoon in Guangdong, and later Liaodong summoned security personnel, and after Huang Feihong signed up, he then passed all the way and entered the guard regiment, and then served as the deputy head of the guard regiment and one of Liu Jun's six personal bodyguards.

"Captain Huang, why are you here?"

Although Huang Feihong has the rank of lieutenant colonel, at the foot of the Son of Heaven, although he is a lieutenant colonel, at least, that rank can be used as a major general.

"Commander Ding, the marshal has an order, let you go to the headquarters immediately." After Huang Feihong finished saluting, he said directly.

was waiting for this sentence, and before Huang Feihong finished speaking, Ding Ruchang had already taken the lead in walking out.

Lushun Headquarters, looking at the two documents on the table, Ding Ruchang really didn't know how to decide. Because of this, there is a plan for the Kyushu operation, two plans, Liu Jun, who was sitting on the chair, gave Ding Ruchang a good choice, take it back and see it himself, which set is suitable for that set. The meaning of this is obvious, I don't care about Kyushu in the future, you can do it.

From then on they had to suffer and be burdened again. Ding Ruchang, who took the document, sighed helplessly and put the document in his hand.

"By the way, this time the Second Fleet will fully cooperate with you, and I will also transfer Nie Shicheng's 23rd Corps back from Mohe to you as a backing, you boldly fight in front, what is the difference, tell me, I am absolutely satisfied."

After listening to Liu Jun's words, Ding Ruchang was happy in his heart, and at the same time felt a lot of pressure in his heart.

It's already too obvious, Liu Jun means to give people to people, to ask for money to give money, anyway, it's a very vulgar saying, the battle of Kyushu, he is fully responsible.

"Understood." Ding Ruchang, who had already walked to the door, turned around and whispered, then turned around and walked out.

Woowoo..... Woowoo...... The train slowly left, and Ding Ruchang, who had been in Lushun for nearly ten days, finally stepped on the train back to Pyongyang.

Although Seoul and Pyongyang are not far apart, the relationship between Japan and Liaodong has always been hostile. So Pyongyang and Seoul were not opened to traffic. As a result, Ding Ruchang was only able to get off the bus in Pyongyang and then ride back to Seoul.

Finally, in the afternoon three days later, Ding Ruchang, under the protection of the guards, entered the headquarters of the Seoul Northern Front Group.

After a few days of consideration, I added an understanding of the Japanese army. Ding Ruchang has absolutely used the No. 1 plan, that is, the battle plan scheme specified by the North Korean Front Group. He also valued the merits of this plan.

Kyushu is no better than Shikoku Island. Kyushu is the largest island in Japan, and the Japanese troops stationed on it are three-fifths of the entire current Japanese army. In other words, a small half of the Japanese army is on the island of Kyushu.

There is a very negative factor to this.

The Japanese were able to quickly mobilize their forces to strike at the landing force, but their own troops were not able to receive effective reinforcements. If there is a disconnect in the middle, then the troops that landed in the past in advance may be able to make the Japanese wrap up.

Ding Ruchang, who returned to the headquarters, did not immediately issue an order, but after discussion, this time finally decided on the battle plan, that is, to use the No. 1 plan.

Seoul Command. In the silent headquarters, all the commanders looked at Ding Ruchang who was sitting at the top of the group motionlessly, and after two days of waiting, the commanders of the armies, independent divisions, and Tsarist Russian troops belonging to the Northeast Liaoning Front Group. The commander of the German Fifth Army and Nie Shicheng, the commander of the 23rd Corps, who had just been transferred back from Mohe, had already arrived here.

This meeting was a meeting at or above the army level on the Northern Front, and even so, the entire conference room, which was originally very spacious, looked very crowded.

Ahem..... With a soft cough, the noisy room suddenly became quiet. Seeing that it was quiet below, Ding Ruchang stood up, and after starting to talk about the current situation, he began to hand over all his efforts to the chief of staff on the side, and asked him to finish the current situation.

The situation is actually very simple, and even in many cases, the commanders of the various armies know that this time they summoned everyone to just issue an order for the armies to rush to the various assembly places within the specified time and wait.

"Everyone, the marshal has approved the plan for our northern line group to carry out the plan of attacking Kyushu, and the big marshal means to see our northern line group land in Kyushu before October 15th, in addition, I have received accurate information that the Feng Guozhang group on the southern front is also mobilizing on a large scale, and I estimate that it is also for attacking Kyushu." Speaking of this, Ding Ruchang stood up and said: "Our northern line group has always been the sharp knife of Liaodong and the main force of Liaodong, I hope that this time, we will not be embarrassed in front of the southern line." ”

At present, although the Liaodong Army is still under the unified command of Liu Jun, the competition between the various corps is very powerful, and everyone wants to become the army of the five standards at the annual selection meeting, which is the recognized main force of the entire Liaodong. Ding Ruchang didn't want to lose in the hands of Feng Guozhang this time, after all, where Feng Guozhang was, there was also the Eighteenth Army, which ranked second last year.

"Commander, rest assured, we will definitely not lose to his Southern Front Corps." With a big grin, the voice of swearing began to appear at the headquarters. Very good, for this voice, Ding Ruchang is very satisfied. Raise your hand slightly, after everyone has quieted down. Ding Ruchang looked at the chief of staff standing beside him again and said, "Send electricity to the navy." Let them march on Jeju Island immediately and force the Japanese troops on Jeju Island to surrender and establish a base. (To be continued.) )
