Hirofumi Ito, who received the telegram, took a closer look at it twice, and there was no mistake, it was the information sent by the secret intelligence station of Lushun. And it is very clear above that the original Zhenyuan of Lushun Military Port in Liaodong. Ruojing and seven other warships of the Beiyang Naval Division had already left Lushun and headed for Weihai, and now the Lushun Military Port is berthed by the German fleet and the remaining warships of the Liaobei Naval Division.

What made Ito even more panicked was not this, but the intelligence that showed that the German transport ship had unloaded nearly 50,000 troops.

More than 50,000 people, what is Germany going to do, if it is just to fight itself, so that in surrender, can get a little advantage, then there is no need for so many troops, but look at the present, nearly four divisions of troops. This is a serious problem.

"What do you think of the arrival of these 50,000 German troops in Arthur." Hirobumi Ito wanted to hear some insights from Inoue Shin, so after placing the telegram on the table, he asked Inoue Shin, who was standing in front of him.

"My subordinates thought that the German Far East Army had come all the way here and transported 50,000 troops, and it was not as simple as starting a war with us and making us surrender."

Coming, Ito Hirobumi's heart trembled slightly, his analysis was similar to that of Inoue Kashihi River Meander, in fact, he had an answer in his heart, but he didn't dare to think about it, and he didn't dare to think about it, that is, Germany came with so many people, and it was bound to land on the Japanese mainland after destroying the Combined Fleet.

He didn't dare to think about this matter, and he wouldn't let Germany succeed, once that happened, I am afraid that even if he apologized for his seppuku, there was no way to redeem the defeat, after all, Japan, at that time, was in danger of losing the country.

"Do you mean that Germany is going to land on the outside mainland?" He didn't want to say it, he hoped that he could get an answer from Inoue Xin.

"I'm afraid that not only Germany, but also Liu Jun of Liaodong, and Tsarist Russia have this idea, according to intelligence, Tsarist Russia's European fleet, shortly after departure, the strength of the two corps of the Tsarist Russian army that was originally in Europe is advancing to Asia." Inoue Shin wants to say a big one, he doesn't want to deceive Ito Hirobumi, perhaps, long before the war, this is a conspiracy, a conspiracy against Japan.

With a thud, Ito Hirobumi's heart was half cold, if this is really the case, then, now, the troops in Tsarist Russia cannot be consumed too much, but must slowly shrink, so that when necessary, they can withdraw to the mainland and carry out a local defense war.

"Inform the cabinet members immediately and meet tonight." Ito Hirobumi doesn't want to drag on this matter, and if it is a day late, then it will be one more day of danger for Japan.

Lushun, Piaoxianglou, a grand welcome banquet is being held in the hall, and the participants in this banquet are all senior officers from Germany and Liaodong. And it was Zhong Lin who came forward from Liaodong, after all, he didn't like to participate in this kind of hypocritical welcome ceremony. I don't want to participate, but now he is happy to eat at Li Hongzhang's house.

"I heard that you approached Klinder some time ago and asked him to persuade Germany to suspend the attack, what happened? Li Hongzhang still has hatred for Japan, and in his opinion, since Germany wants to make a move, let him make a move, anyway, as long as Liaodong does not make a move, it would be a good thing for someone to mention that he would solve this combined fleet by himself.

Seeing Li Hongzhang ask like this, Liu Jun put down the teacup in his hand, lowered his head and thought for a while, and then told Li Hongzhang his purpose.

Many people are artificial, Liu Jun is to prevent the Beiyang Naval Division from reducing losses, so as to dissuade the German fleet from attacking Japan for the time being, but after waiting for the arrival of the Tsarist fleet, he is launching an attack on Japan, but this is a goal, but it is not the ultimate goal. Liu Jun's ultimate goal was to target Tsarist Russia.

In Liu Jun's view, if the war against Japan is launched now, then with the current strength of the Combined Fleet, I am afraid that under the joint efforts of the Beiyang Naval Division and the German Far East Fleet, there will be no power to fight back, only annihilation, however, if the Combined Fleet is annihilated like this, then Japan's maritime power will disappear completely, and the replenishment of the hundreds of thousands of Japanese troops in Tsarist Russia will be completely interrupted. In this way, Japan was able to solve the influence of Tsarist Russia in the Far East before its demise. Then for himself in the future, he will be able to enter Tsarist Russia smoothly.

After listening to Liu Jun's explanation, Li Hongzhang's hand holding the tea suddenly stopped in the air, he didn't expect Liu Jun to calculate Tsarist Russia so hard, he thought that his policy of using razing to control razing for so many years had been used to the point of perfection, but now compared with Liu Jun, it is simply pediatrics. This is the real fight against razing.

"What do you do now? The German army of 50,000 is stationed in Lushun, and we have to eat and drink every day, so do we need to spend money in Liaodong. Li Hongzhang didn't seem to oppose Liu Jun's policy, but he was worried that the 50,000 troops were now in the Lushun barracks. I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of whatever, if Germany turns back on the water and attacks Lushun at this time, then Lushun is dangerous.

"Germany is not so stupid, he has 50,000 troops. Although I can take Lushun for a while, I will immediately mobilize troops from Beijing and Shengjing, and I think that at that time, his army of 50,000 will only be destroyed in front of me. ”

Liu Jun didn't care about Li Hongzhang's worries, after all, Germany was so enthusiastic that it wanted to gain a foothold in the Far East. To attack Liaodong, Germany currently does not have that strength in the Far East, but when it fights Japan, that strength is more than rubbing, after all, Japan is now facing a three-front war.

In Korea, although it was a fake fight, it dragged nearly 50,000 Japanese troops, and the Tsarist Far East had already dragged down the Japanese 130,000 troops, so Japan itself no longer had much strength.

"That's so simple, why do you want us to provide for it, they pay for it themselves, what do they want to eat, and if they buy it themselves, I will symbolically give 10,000 catties of food." As soon as he heard Li Hongzhang say that he wanted to send the German army, Liu Jun waved his hand and said very generously.

is so generous, 10,000 catties, people can't eat enough for one meal. Regarding Liu Jun's appearance of pretending to be a gentleman even though he was in black Germany, Li Hongzhang could only shake his head helplessly, picked up the teacup in his hand, and slowly began to taste tea.

Seeing that Li Hongzhang no longer had doubts in his heart, Liu Jun nodded slightly, agreed to take the teacup, walked to the window, and looked at the faintly visible Piaoxianglou in the distance in a daze.
