Wu Tingfang looked at the document, and he found that for the imperial court, the marshal still made too many changes this time, at least, it was much better than the original treatment, Wu Tingfang estimated that this kind of document was handed over to the court negotiators, and if the court really had the heart to negotiate peace, it would definitely accept such a request.

"Uncle Wu, someone from the imperial court asked when we can negotiate?" Li Jingfang's voice sounded, interrupting Wu Tingfang, who was thinking.

When to negotiate, this matter can't be decided by himself, this is the decision of the marshal, bowing his head and thinking for a while, Wu Tingfang put down the negotiation documents in his hand, and then said: "Send a telegram to Beijing, the representative of the imperial court hopes to start the negotiation process, and asks Beijing for instructions, when is it more appropriate to start negotiations." ”

"Okay." Li Jingfang nodded, then turned around and walked out, and began to release news to Beijing.

Beijing, Renshou Palace, since sending a telegram to Baoji, Liu Jun has been very comfortable in the past few days, and now Britain and France are not behind to wear their little shoes It feels really comfortable.

He had not felt such a happy feeling for a long time, from the first time Japan surrendered to the imperial court to now, and he felt that this period was the quietest few days in England and France.

At least on the southwestern border, where the border with these two countries is currently located, it is very safe, and this is happiness.

"Looks like you're in a good mood?" Zheng Yiqian, who was on the side, walked over, handed a telegram in her hand to Liu Jun and said, "Here you are, the telegram sent by Wu Tingfang from Baoji." ”

Baoji's telegram, Wu Hao, who heard this, opened it and looked at it, it was Wu Tingfang's telegram asking for instructions on when to start negotiations.

"Wang Shizhen, what are they doing?" Liu Jun, who read the telegram, asked Zhong Lin, who was standing on the side.

Zhong Lin currently knows the latest situation of the marching of the various armies best, and after looking down for a while, Zhong Lin put down the apple in his hand and then said: "Head, according to your order, after taking the Jianmen Pass, our army will stop attacking, and now, Wang Shizhen's troops are currently assembled at the Jianmen Pass," Speaking of this, Zhong Lin stretched his neck and looked at Liu Jun in front of him, and then asked tentatively: "Head, did you order them to continue the attack." ”

Offensive what offense. Hearing this, Liu Jun shook his head, now is not the time to attack, since he has decided to negotiate with the imperial court, he must stop letting the troops attack, until ten days later, if the imperial court does not give himself face, then it is okay to attack again.

"I know what you mean, you want to give a peaceful explanation to the world, but sometimes, there must be a certain military threat, otherwise, the imperial court may not be able to make clear what their position is?" Zheng Yiqian, who was on the side, saw where Liu Jun shook his head, and immediately walked over and said.

"What do you mean?" After thinking carefully about Zheng Yiqian's words, Liu Jun raised his head and asked.

"We can't attack, but we can scout, we can scout Chengdu, we can scout the entire southwest." Zheng Yiqian said directly domineeringly.

Understood, Liu Jun, who heard the arrest, smiled slightly, then looked at Zhong Lin in front of him and said, "Send a power to Wang Shizhen." “

Jianmen Pass, the former enemy headquarters of the Liaodong Army, was once the headquarters of the imperial court Jianmen Pass, however, with the loss of Jianmen Pass, the headquarters of the Qing army has become the front-line headquarters of the Liaodong Army.

This headquarters, presumably, was prepared for shelling, so the defenses inside were very well-equipped.

At this moment, in the headquarters, Wang Shizhen, who was wearing a general's uniform, was lifting a wine bottle, and it had been almost five days since he took the Jianmen Pass, and in these five days, he and the army had not taken a step forward in front of him.

This order issued by Beijing made Wang Shizhen a little incomprehensible, he didn't understand why the army spent so many days to take the Jianmen Pass, there was no movement. Several times, he wanted to send a telegram to Beijing to ask for the reason, but in the end Wang Shizhen endured it, he estimated that Beijing must have his reasons.

"Lao Wang, good news, the marshal has asked us to dispatch." Zhang Qing's voice came from outside.

Bang, Wang Shizhen, who heard this voice, immediately threw the wine bottle in his hand on the ground, he had been waiting for the news for many days, and now he finally had news.

"Where do you want us to attack?" When Zhang Qing walked in, Wang Shizhen stepped forward and asked.

Where to attack? Zhang Qing obviously didn't understand Wang Shizhen's words, and after being stunned for a moment, Zhang Qing smiled and said: "The marshal didn't let us attack anywhere, but just sent us a telegram, starting tomorrow, that is, after the negotiations with the imperial court opened, Cheng Wen's flying brigade can go to Chengdu to wander, but it can't fire." Especially in the direction of the imperial palace in the area of Longquanyi. ”

Understood, hearing the word negotiation, Wang Shizhen understood why he didn't attack for so many days, this is completely because of political needs, and now he is in Jianmen Pass, no matter what the future result is, Liaodong has taken the initiative.

If you start a war, you can quickly sweep through the southwest, if you don't start a war, if the court doesn't accept it, you can also gain a foothold in Jianmen Pass, you can advance and retreat, why not do it.

"Dashuai is really tall." Wang Shizhen, who picked up the telegram and looked at it, praised it, then looked at Zhang Qing in front of him and said: "Send a telegram to Cheng Wen's flying brigade and ask them to prepare to go far away, and in addition, send a telegram to Minister Wu Tingfang of Baoji to ask about the time when they will negotiate with the imperial court." ”

"Got it." Zhang Qing replied, and after quickly recording Wang Shizhen's order, he turned around and walked out.

Baoji, Wu Tingfang once again mentioned the briefcase that he had placed on that table for a long time, this briefcase was when he was the minister of Mexico. gave it to him by his mother, and after all these years, the handpiece of this bag has begun to break, but Wu Tingfang is still reluctant to throw it away.

Syllable...... After putting the documents on the table into the briefcase, Wu Tingfang looked at the place and time of tomorrow's negotiation again, and then prepared to turn off the lights and rest to prepare for tomorrow's negotiation. “

However, before he could stand up, Wu Tingfang saw Li Jingfang coming over.

Coming back so late, there must be something.

"Jingfang, you don't sleep so late, is there something else?" Wu Tingfang waited until Li Jingfang came over, and suddenly said. (To be continued.) )
