In fact, the Japanese army's order to support the troops on Shikoku Island had been decided five days earlier, but during these five days, the troops that had been assembled did not set off, but waited for Inoue to sign the departure order. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In fact, it is understandable that Inoue Shin did not sign such an order, and once the landing force without naval escort was attacked, there would be only one end, and the entire army would be annihilated.

Now, time can no longer drag on, and in addition to the fact that Nogi Nishinori has taken all the defensive measures, Inoue Shin is also very happy to sign violently on it.

Woowoo........ At the Kyushu Wharf, the closest wharf to Shikoku Island, the army and fishing boats were constantly docking, and then waiting for the army to board the boat, and then rowed aside again.

There are no big boats, and these boats are still collected by the government for the surrounding fishermen, but even so, it seems that there are still some shortcomings.

Hey, on a torpedo boat, the head of the newly formed 50th Division, Jiro Kashima, was full of sorrow, and he always had a bad premonition in his heart.

This time, it was his own 50th Division that took the lead in supporting Shikoku Island, or in other words, what he was going to dispatch tonight was a complete gamble.

That division came to test the reaction of the Liaodong Navy.

Why is it himself, Kashima has a trace of unwillingness in his heart.

Shikoku Island, the whistling sea breeze blows, and the military flag on the mast of the Liaodong Navy moored on the sea blows the roaring Zhuohang.

On the bridge of the Hongzhang ship, Li He, who was wearing a white admiral's uniform, raised his head boredly and rested on the seagulls flying in the distance, and then returned to his command tower in a few steps.

If the army does not attack, its own navy will have to stay here. Being in a daze with nothing to do all day long, this kind of taste makes Li He feel very aggrieved.

"Commander, Japan Station Emergency Telegram." Li He, who had just returned to the command tower, had not yet fully sat down, and Yan Fu, who was outside, had already picked up a telegram in his hand and walked in.

The telegram from the Japanese station, this must be from the direction of Kyushu, thinking of this, Li He took the telegram and saw that it was written: "The Japanese army will cross the sea to reinforce Shikoku Island in the near future." ”

Sure enough, it was a reinforcement telegram they sent, and Li He, who had read the contents twice, threw the telegram on the table.

"Commander, what shall we do now?" Waiting for Li He to put the telegram on the table, Yan Fu stepped forward and asked.

What to do, if you have the original temper, you will definitely lead the main force, and then intercept and kill the Japanese troops who have landed in the strait, so that they will all be buried at the bottom of the sea before they reach Shikoku Island. Feed the great white sharks.

But now, hey, with a sigh, Li He picked up the telegrams and looked at them again, took out the lighter from his coat pocket, and lit the telegrams.

"Commander, what does that mean?" Waiting for the telegram to turn to ashes, Yan Fu asked suspiciously.

"The marshal means that more Japanese troops will be reinforced to Shikoku Island, so we can only assume that we don't know about this kind of thing that the Japanese army wants to cross the sea to reinforce." Li He made the meaning clear in one sentence.

That is, how the Japanese army wants to cross the sea and how to cross the sea, anyway, the Liaodong Navy will definitely not attack, on the contrary, it will let the ships be far away from the Japanese landing area and make way for them.

"Send electricity to Lushun, the Japanese army is already opening reinforcements,. Our naval headquarters will strictly guard against surprise attacks by the enemy. ”

In the Lushun Headquarters, Liu Jun, who had been busy all day, finally had time to put down the guy in his hand and sit on the chair in a daze and look at the scenery in the distance.

Taking two deep breaths, Liu Jun, who was standing in front of the window, tightened his clothes and returned to his position.

"Head, urgent intelligence." In the headquarters, Zhong Lin's voice sounded again.

It's urgent information again, Liu Jun, who took two deep breaths, looked at Zhong Lin, he didn't know what kind of urgent information would appear now.

"Head, according to the observation of the intelligence officers of the Japanese station, in the past few days, the Japanese army assembled along the coast is carrying large-scale shipments, and it is estimated that reinforcements will be sent to Shikoku Island soon." After speaking, Zhong Lin put a telegram in his hand on the table, and then walked to the map and circled the area where the Japanese troops were assembled.

Obviously, these places are the closest ports to Shikoku Island. Judging from the situation drawn by Zhong Lin, the situation is already very clear, and the Japanese army will definitely send troops to Shikoku Island from these places.

They finally made a move, and Liu Jun, who smiled slightly, had actually been waiting for the news for a long time.

"Yes, they're finally going to reinforce Shikoku." Zheng Yiqian, who was on the side, also nodded, and then walked up to Liu Jun and said again.

"The Japanese army is reinforcing Shikoku Island, and I think we should also be targeted, and first transport certain supplies to the troops on Shikoku Island, so that even if the time comes, we will not say how much advantage we will take, but at least to a certain extent, we will maintain a balance with the Japanese army."

This problem is normal, Liu Jun agrees very much, although he ordered the transportation of materials to Shikoku Island to be postponed again and again, but after all, this can only be postponed for a while, not for a lifetime, and the present said that the Japanese army wants to get reinforcements, as long as their navy does not make trouble, it is a very easy thing.

"Telegraph to Li He and ask him to send a certain number of frigates to assemble in Arthur and deliver supplies to the German army."

"In addition, let Ding Ruchang's side also prepare, and wait for the order to attack at any time.

Ding Ruchang's First Corps has now occupied the entire territory of Korea. At present, Ding Ruchang's more than 100,000 troops are concentrated in southern Korea and are ready to launch an attack on Japan at any time.

"Head, are you ready to attack Kyushu?" Zhong Lin, who was on the side, heard Liu Jun give this order and asked suspiciously.

How is it possible, Shikoku Island has not been taken yet, how can he attack Kyushu, which is stronger in defense and troops than Shikoku Island, the reason for doing this is entirely because at present, the Japanese army on the Kyushu side has begun to mobilize, and he has to symbolically say anything to carry out a certain blow to the Japanese army from the north, so that the Japanese army cannot fully carry out effective reinforcements on Shikoku Island.

To put it simply, whether this scene is sung well or not, the decisive factor is not the army, but Li He's navy, as long as Li He's blockade of Shikoku and Kyushu is timed, it will be a huge benefit for Liaodong, perhaps, in the next few decades, Germany will be pinned down in Shikoku and endure the attacks of the people of Shikoku Island. At that time, Germany will be in a dilemma in Asia, and if it wants to give up, it will be reluctant, if it does not give up, it will fall into it and will not be able to pull it out, and it will only wait for death.
